Hockey League President
Explains Game For Fans
(This year, for tht first tima.
hoclcty is being televised na
tionally throughout the United
States. Many are seeing the
game for the first time. The
following was prepared by
Clarence S. Campbell, presi
dent of the National Hockey
league, to help new viewers
enjoy the game.)
By CLARENCE S. CAMPBELL
President
National Hockey League
(As Told To United Press)
Montreal (U.R) Hockey is
one of the easiest of all games to
watch and understand and the
finest of all spectator sports.
Tiger Jones,
Smallwood
Foes in Ring
Cleveland, Ohio (U.R) Ralph
(TiRer) Jones, his sights set on a
1957 middleweight championship
battle with Gene Fullmer, rated
as the favorite tonight in a 10-
round nationally televised battle
against Hardy (Bazooka) Small
wood of Brooklyn.
The oddsmakers gave Jones of
Yonkers, N. Y., a 3 to 1 edge
over Smallwood, who has been
on the short end of more split
decisions than he has won.
Both fighters originally had
planned to be home in front of
their television sets tonight,
watching the Carmen Basilio
Johnny Saxton welterweight
championship fight instead of
trading punches in front of the
cameras.
Replacement Bout
Basilio won a five-week delay
when he revealed he had an in
jured right hand, and Match
maker Larry Atkins signed Jones
and Smallwood as the replace
ment headliner.
Jones' last appearance in
Cleveland was an April meeting
last year with Gene Fullmer. He
closed fast against the Utah
slugger, who was to become mid
dleweight champion, and had no
qualms about protesting the
unanimous verdict awarded
Fullmer.
A loss tonight to the lower
ranked Smallwood would un
doubtedly stymie Jones' cham
pionship hopes.
HOCKEY
NATIONAL LEAGUE
By UNITED PRESS
Goalie Norm Defelice, pressed
all the way by the hard-shooting
Detroit Red Wings, handled his
first assignment as replacement
for the -suspended Terry Saw
chuk in a somewhat nervous but
creditable fashion Thursday
night.
The 23-year-old net minder,
'called up from Hershey of the
American Hockey league for the
second time this season to fill in
for Sawchuk. shook off his nerv
ousness of the first period and
then settled down as the Bruins
and Red Wings battled to a 2-2
tie in. the only game played in
the National Hockey league.
The tie cut Montreal's lead
over second place Detroit to
four points. Boston, in third
place, is six points off the pace.

Hubbard-Wray
Med ford,
Its object is to produce 60
minutes of sustained speed and
action and the unlimited substi
tution "on the fly" is one of its
most outstanding features.
Essentially it is a simple game.
Those watching it for the first
few times should not be too
much concerned with the col
ored and dotted lines and circles
on the ice. They all have their
special function which the spec
tator will absorb quickly.
Basically it is a contest be
tween two teams, using six play
ers each at any one time each
trying to put the "puck" into
the opponents' "goal" by means
of their sticks which they em
ploy with wizardly skill.
Awesome To Witness
The first impression the new
fan will get in his closeness to
the action will be his personal
identification with the actions
of the players. At first he will
be struck by the constant surg
ing of play from one end to the
other, the crashing of bodies and
the heavy thud of the puck off
the boards and the goaltender.
Gradually he will recognize
the sheer artistry of the goal
keeper as he uses different tac
tics and maneuvers to keep the
puck out of his net and "clear"
it for one of his own players in
an effort to launch a counter
attack.
The goalie has two defense
men to protect him. Their chief
job is to prevent the opponents
from maneuvering into a scoring
position by riding off or steer
ing them into , the corners and
intercepting the puck by antici
pation, "poke" checking the
puck off his opponent's stick.
The arts of the three for
wards are directed primarily to
scoring goals and to do this they
must have speed, deception of
movement, stick-handling abil
ity and a hard accurate shot.
Most of all they must be able
to work as a unit. To get maxi
mum results' a forward must be
able to make fast, accurate
passes and receive them from
an angle while traveling at top
speed. Watch how he will pick
up a pass with his skates when
he is unable to reach it with his
stick.
Note Faking Movements
Watch also how the puck car
rier will use his body or the
puck to decoy an opponent
into the first move in an effort
to pass him.
The forward must 'also be a
good checker, adept in taking
the puck away from the other
team, either with his stick or
by body-checking him.
Throughout the - constant at
tack and counter-attack will also
appear the strategy of the coach.
His ingenuity in substituting his
players to get his strongest line
against the other team's weak
est checkers, or juggling his best
checkers against the opponent's
strong line when he is ahead
and trying to protect the lead,
is all part of the battle of wits
between the coaches.
But above all to get the maxi
mum enjoyment from hockey,
you should be partisan. The only
non-partisan fellows are the
three men in the striped shirts
the referee and the two lines
men.

Sal Maglie
Signs 1957
Dodger Pact
By UNITED PRESS
Sal Maglie, who won the
"money" games for the Brooklyn
Dodgers in 1956, signed an agree
ment today that figures to keep
him rolling in the "green stuff"
for the remainder of 1957.
The crafty right hander, who
made an amazing comeback
with the Dodgers after the Cleve
land Indians let him go in a
waiver deal last May, quickly
reached agreement with Brook
lyn Vice President Buzzy Bavasi
for a salary believed to be
$30,000.
While the figure is not too im
posing, it still is regarded as
quite high for a guy who will
be 40 years old on April 2b.
Few major league clubs have
been known to give away their
money, but in Maglie's case the
Dodgers are only too happy.
After the Dodgers clinched the
National League pennant last
fall, the Brooklyn official fam
ily, including President Walter
O'Malley, Bavasi and Manager
Walter Alston, agreed it couldn't
have been done without Sal.
Down the stretch run Maglie
was near perfect. He won eight
of nine games, including a no-
hit, no-run game against the Phil
adelphia Phillies. He won 13
games in all and lost five, posted
an earned run average of 2.87,
fourth best in the National
league, and wound up as the
club's "bread and butter" pitcher
in the final hectic weeks of the
close race with the Milwaukee
Braves and Cincinnati Redlegs.
Just to prove he still had some
rubber left in his aging right
arm, Sal opened the World
Series with the Yankees by beat
ing Whitey Ford and lost the
fifth game when he ran up
agains Don Larsen's perfect
game.
His signing gave the Dodgers
23 players under contract, sec-
and only to the St. Louis Cardi
nals who have 30 players in the
fold.
The New York Giants, Mil
waukee Braves, and Chicago
White Sox also announced some
signings, but for 'the most part
they involved lesser players.
Left handed pitcher Pete
Bumside, rookie catcher Bob
Schmidt and outfielder Bill
Taylor signed with the Giants;
the Braves lined up second base
man Ed Charles: the Orioles
signed first baseman Bob Hale,
and the White Sox corralled a
pair of youngsters for their farm
clubs.
