FULLFRTON JR. (For Gayle Talbot NEW YORK Wf-A big guy has just come to town who never or hardly ever stuck his head into any sports activity without coming out with a championship of some sort. And he has been handed one of the toughest jobs you could im aginetrying to make a cham pionship contender out of the Rangers. The big guy's name Is Murray Patrick, but everyone calls him 'Muzi." The Rangers, if you don't remember, are a. local hockey team which used to win titles with reasonable frequency but haven't even threatened lately. , In fact, they slipped so far after the war that Muzz' dad. Lester. lost his., job .after leading the club for. i0- years. And brother Lynn. Frank Boucher and Bill Cook all failed to bring the club and its fans back. , And, to make It tougher. Muzz. after only a week to get acquaint ed with his team, ran Into three straight games against the Boston Bruins. That's the team the Ran gers have, to beat, to get into the National Hockey League playoffs and their coach Is Muzz's older, slightly smaller and equally rug ged brother Lynn.-- Still we wouldn't want to bet 'that Muzz can't do It. He's quite a guy. His Rangers won the first of the three last night, defeating the Bruins 8-3. Just to show, you how the young er Patrick operates, he didn't take up hockey seriously until he was 18 years old. Five years later he was a big leaguer,- - -Before that time, he had won the amateur, heavyweight boxing championship of Canada. He had played on a Canadian champion ship basketball tcami'was an out standing backfield man In the "Big Four" Football League in his na tive British Columbia and took an occasional fling at baseball, track and bicycle racing.
