The Maroons went at their op- ponents right from the start and seldom let up until the final bell, Prior to the game they were in a ticklish position. They were minus two of their stars and they gore- ly needed oa win against the Rang- ers to keep them in the race with Toronto for 3rd place in the Canadi- an section of the league, Their fol- lowers expected them to make a game stand, and with a little luck expected them to "hold the cham- ions or even eke out a narrow mar- gin victory, but not even tne most optimistic supporters expected the team to give its best display of this season or any other for that matter, copsidering its crippled condition, 4 2 2 8 Leafs 2, .

Hammond had planned on taking two teams over for a series of exhibition games follow- ing the winding up of the National Hockey League season. This plan is believed to haye fallen through, how- cver, as the Colonel's efforts to se- cure the services of several players from Canadiens, Boston and the New York teams to make the trip, have so far met with little success, Queried regarding his European project Col, Hammond stated he was | unable to reveal his plans at present. , "Hockey, I am confident, would catch City club representatives carried | on just as big in the important Eu- back with them the historic Earl Grey trophy.

"It is a thrilling sport, Box- ing, now that the United States mon- opoly on titles seems to be threat- ened, is also due to go over big throughout Europe, "Genuine professional athletic riv- alry is certain to appeal to the peo- ple of Europe and a world series hockey championship with Canada and the United States pitted against Great Britain, France and Germany would draw well for hockey has a universal appeal, unlike baseball which is purely an American sport." The biggest obstacle in the way of experimenting with major league hockey abroad is the scarcity of players of big league calibre. Canada is already furnishing the playing ma- terial for four professional minor leagues in the United States as well as minor leagues in Ontario and Western Canada. Then of course all players with the exception of two in the National Hockey League are Canadians, TAIL-END HAWKS TIE IN DETROIT Detroit, Feb, 25, -- The Detroit Cougars received a double ow here Saturday night, being held to a scoreless tie in a National pro. hockey game with the tail-end Chi- cago Black Hawks and losing the services for the remainder of the season of Herbie Lewis, muar wing- man and one of hockey's fastest skaters.

Returning from a victorious three-game campaign across the border, the Senators took the upper band in the play from the first whistle and but for stellar goal- tending on the part of Joe Miller, the locals would surely have step- ped into a lead in the first period Howevr, th Bucs put up a strong game behind their blue line and frustrated every attempt of the locals to forge in front, STEAMER IN SEARCH OF A "DREAM ISLAND" Boston, Mass., Feb, 25.--The steam- er Peary has sailed away in quest of a "dream island" in the Pacific.
