The local Maple Leafs fig- ored as one of the clubs in the three largest deals of the off sea- son, two of them being with the New York Rangers, and the other with Detroit. In the 1927-28 campaign in the Canadian group the Canadiens got away to a flying start, and although they appeared to weaken {in the run down the stretch they were still In front when the regular sea- son closed, thanks to their early lead, Montreal was in close pur- suit, while Ottawa shook off the Maple Leafs, who were beset by serious injuries to players in the midst of the dash to the wire, The Americans occupied last place, and never threatened to get out. In the other group Boston finished strong to nose out the Rangers, who had led most of the season, while Pittsburgh finished in third place by a narrow margin over De- troit, The Pirates, away to a bad start, steadily improved. Chicago was always a sure last place club. In the play offs Rangers defeated the Pirates, and then eliminated the Bruins, Although previous form is not al- ways true and recruits may not show as much in games as they do in pre-season practices, a fair in- dication of the relative strengths of the various teams can be secur- ed by their showing last year and the changes in the personnel of the various clubs, along with a cer- tain amount of consideration for improvemrent in some of the play- ers who were new to the league last season, As a result, it looks it the standings In the two groups when the schedule ends on March 16 will be something like the following: Canadian Group American Group Montreal Boston Canadiens Rangers Maple Leafs Detroit Ottawa Chicago Americans Pittsburg The Maroons, the strongest club in the Canadian group last season, are practically the same squad as last year, although some of the vet- erans are older, but on the other hand, players like Ward and Lamb will be better for their greater ex- perience, Then the regular forward line, which was re-arranged some- what last year to permit the In- clusion of Hooley Smith, should function better. The Maroons are also strongly fortified in every position, AEROPLANE SERVICE New York, Nov, 14,--A regular passenger airplane service between New York and Boston will be esta blished as soon as delivery 'ean be secured on tri-motored planes which will be used on the route, John ¥, O'Ryan, of the Colonial Alrways, has announced, Flying time between the eitles is estimated at an hour and 45 minutes, MANTERFROWT wdt's Automatic OSHAWA BATTERY SERVICE A.
