THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1940 Bob Davidson Has Been Great Help to Leafs By Dick Sheridan, Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, Nov. 6 (CP)--He's seldom fn the headlines so there's no time like the present to give a boost to Robert (Bob) Davidson whose dur- able limbs are finally beginning to creak, With the National Hockey League season barely begun, the rugged left winger of the Toronto Leafs is already on the shelf, How- ever, it is believed he will be there only temporarily. Rugged Robert, who has skated miles up and down the left wing patrol during his seven years with the Leafs, came to an abrupt halt 'when his knee gave out during last -'Monday's practice. He was ordered %0 rest up for the remainder of the week in the hope hell be ready for Saturday's game with Detroit Red Wings, Silent partner of the Leafs fam- ous D-A-D line, Davidson is the cover-up guy for his more famous teammates -- Syl Apps and Gordie Drillon. The goals he has saved by his backchecking equal if not eclipse those scored by his pals. Always in condition and ever | willing, Davidson is the ideal team player that every manager cher- ishes. Manager Conn Smythe, watching his tireless skating in a recent drill remarked: "I never have to worry about Bobbie. He's always in there when the going is the toughest." Davidson, Toronto-born, has play- | ed all his hockey in the city of his | birth. He graduated from Marlboro seniors to pro ranks in 1933. Twen- ty-eight years of age, he scales around 175 pounds. | Never a prolific scorer, he was at his best last season when he counted eight goals and aided in 17 others. In the 1937-38 campaign he was credited with three goals! and 17 assists. That was the year Drillon anl Apps placed one-two among the league marksmen with the astounding totals of 52 and 50 respectively. What Davidson lacks in color he makes up in honesty of purpose and year after year he is assigned the | thankless task of killing off penal- | ties. has never been known to consider | placing him on the auction block | during his longs service with the Leafs. With the retirement of Red Horner last Spring, Davidson be- came the veteran of the club with the most years of service. The left wingers injury, while minor in nature, seems to indicate | the D-A-D line has other. forces to content with as it seeks to regain | recognition as the best three-some | in hockey. Drillon and Apps were | hurt in succession last season. The | line was eventually reformed but its | sting was missing. On the basis of Bob's loyal work, | there's another Davidson on the Master of Ordnance P. A. Chester, General Manager of the Hudson's Bay Company, who has been appointed Acting Master | General of Ordnance for Canada's fighting forces. A Great War vet- eran, Mr, Chester serves without charge and assumes no military rank. The Ornance Department is responsible for all equipment and clothing of the fighting forces. ------ wl AMBULANCES AY PARCELS FROM TAY, ARE APPRECIATED Field Marshal Chetwode Sends Thanks to Cana- dian Red Cross Field Marshal Sir Philiy wode, chairman of the Cross. has w Red Cross exnr the gift of 130 an for the parcels week f agreeme?

"In the opinion of this Associa- tion," Goldring said, "the effect of evacuation by reascn of a time- bomb is not evacuation within the meaning of the orders made under the Courts' Emergency Powers Act of 1939."

Legal opinions for and against have been expressed, court deci= sions have gone one way and the other, and the general view is that each Individual will have to take his chance because there is no set ruling to cover the case.
