Patrick
Has Job
On Hands
By HUGH. 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.

Low-Friction truck engines in the industry! And 1954 Ford Truck engines
have less cubic inch displacement for the power they develop, than other-make
truck engines. Ford's 239 cu. in. Power King V-8, for instance, develops its
130 b.p. on as much as 43 cu. in. less displacement. Smaller-displacement
engines normally need less gas! Ford engines also, have deep-skirt, more rigid
engine blocks to give better bearing support, smoother, more efficient power,
longer life. Over a billion miles of trucking have proved their performance and
economy. Now they are standard in all Ford's more than 220 truck models'
