Spicy Bits From Other Sports Cols. By VIC MORRIS JR. Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, April 2--(CP)--Lou (Mr. Boxing) Stillman of New York urges a clean up of present day boxing legislation which allows in. experienced managers and trainers io match fighters in "death bat. es." Stillman, who has operated a gymnasium in the heart of New York for 31 years, says "boxing laws and regulations are of no use if they are made by people who don't know what they are doing." In an interview with Doug ("Windsor Star") Vaughan the oth. re day, Stillman suggests that box. ing commissions throughout Canada and the United States should invite 25 men, who know the fight game from top to bottom, to their meet- ings. "They won't be college men. May. be their English won't be top draw- er variety, I'll guarantee they'll come up with at leasb one good sug- gestion that will save a kid's life." Lou has another objection which he lays in the lap of the boxing legislators. He says: Can you name me another sport where all a fellow needs is the price of a license to set himself up in business to gamble with some un- suspecting kid's life? FAMOUS U.S. BOWLER DIE Siw] New York,--Jimmy Smith, re- garded as one of the greatest com- petitive and exhibition bowlers of all time, died here Saturday night after a lingering illness at the age of 69.

The victory in itself was an anti_climax for hdd clinched the N.H.L. championship the night before. But two individual achievements stood out. Broda's excellent goalkeeping won him the Vezina Trophy. He won it by a margin of five goals, 143 to 148, over Detroit's goalie, Harry Lumley. Captain Syl Apps, who has said that will retire at the end of this season, realized his heart's desire when scored three goals to bring his "lifetime total to 201. Funny, that Broda commented before the two week-end games. "I hope that Apps don't re. |oc tire. He's been my meal ticket for 10 years, When things look rugged, Hap drops him over the boards and the situation improves instantly." Broda knows whereof he speaks. .And St. Mikes Play Overtime Tie With Aerovox Toronto, April 2--Hamilton Aero- vox came from behind twice to tie St. Michael's College Buzzers 2.2 in overtime at Varsity Arena last night.
