THE DATLY TIMES-GAZETTE, Tusslay, November %, B00 9 HEADED FOR TITLE LEAFS GOOD ON ROAD CARTER VS.

The merry Montrealers have 'Played signi games on home ice have won them all. On the road it's a different story. They have dropped five of seven. They also are the only team in the Jeague that hasn't played a tie game. Detroit Red Wings, also with eight games at home, have won six, lost one and tied one. Boston Bruins, on home ice only five times so far, have won four and Jost one. But the Red Wings haven't yet won a game on the road, get- ting three ties in five starts. Away from home the Bruins have won three, lost three and one. The up-and-toming Toronto Male Leafs, one point ahead of Boston and tied for second place with Detroit, have a respectable record both at home away. In Toronto the Leafs have won three and tied three in seven goalie with an average better than starts. On the road their record is |2.00 three wins, three losses and a tie.

Earl (Dutch) Rei- bel of Detroit. Sandford's efforts boosted his total to 12° and put him in sixth place. Geoffrion, Maurice Richard of Montreal and Johnny Peirson of Boston share goal-scoring honors with seven each. Terry Sawchuk of Detroit con- tinues to lead the netminders, with a goals-against average of 1.38. The Leafs' Harry Lumley follows with 1.78. Gerry McNeil of Mont- real, with 1.93, is the only other home fans, have won one, lost two and tied one at Madison Square Garden, It has been a little rugged on the road--two wins and two ties in nine starts. It's a dismal record either way fo the lowly Chicago Black Hawks. At home: One win, six losses and two ties; away: one win and five losses. The harvest of points--two for a win and one for a tie--shows, of course, Canadiens have collected 16 of a possible 16 at home for 100 per cent. The home-ice per- centage of possible points for the other clubs: Detroit, 81; Boston, 80; Toronto, 64; New York, 38; Chicago, 22.

Willie Ketchum, manager of the champion, has made it clear he considers his side was gypped in last spring's non-title fight here when Savoie took the decision over the champ. Willie wants no part of the jud- ges who wrote the decision to that scrap. "They're prejudiced; they going to insist mone of them be on the list again." Willie would also like Jack Dempsey as referee, or a referee attached to either the New York or Pennsylvania commis- sions. He 'figures a Montreal ref- eree is far short on experience. Names of the officials won't be announced until a few minutes be- fore the fight. Tommy Sullivan and Maurice, O'Connell are senior men on the Montreal commission staff.

During the heaviest part of his training, most of it at a camp in the Laurentian mountains, Savoie boxed 140 rounds, his handlers re- port. Carter is said to have en- gaged in only 55 rounds with his sparring partners, but he has had three fights in the last couple of months. Advance sale of tickets was re- ed at $30,000 Monday night. Promoter Raoul Godbout was hope- ful a sell-out $70,000 would be reached, which would mean an at- tendance of around 17,500. Carter has a choice of 40 per cent of the gate or $25,000. Savoie's share is 12% per cent of the gate. BASEBALL NOT A BUSINESS WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. Supreme Court Monday ruled pro- fessional baseball is still only a sport and hence is not subject to federal anti-trust laws. The court's decision was given on three appeals attacking the much-discussed player 'reserve clause,"" keystone of organized baseball. The appeals had asked the court to reverse a 1922 unanimous de- cision delivered by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes that baseball is a sport, not a business. UNSIGNED DECISION Monday's decision was announced in a per curiam opinion--that is, one not signed by any of the court. ' It said the tribunal was uphold- ing the Holmes' decision of 1922 'so far as that decision determines that Congress had no intention of including the business of baseball Supreme Coutt Rules Baseball Only a Sport Monday's ruling came less than a month after the high court heard three hours of arguments stretched over two days. The appeals were taken to the high court by two former minor league players and the former owner of the El Paso, Te: ., base- ball club. They contended baseball exercised an illegal monopolyover activities of its players by use of the "reserve clause." CLUB CONTROLS PLAYER This clause -- included in all baseball contracts -- puts a player under complete control of the club that owns his contract. The club may sell the player's services to another club, but the slayer may not make any deals of his own with other teams. Baseball's attorneys argued there was essentially no c:ference be- tween baseball in 1922 and today. They disputed a theory that radio within the scope of the federal anti-trust laws." and TV had changed the structure 'of the game. SATURDAY IS THE DAY OTTAWA (CP) --1It's a battle down to the wire for the Big Four football title and virtually any way you look at the race it's bound to be a photo finish. The teams meet next Saturday in the final scheduled games: Montreal at Toronto and Qftawa at Hamilton. At the momen{ only one thing is certain--Toronto Ar- gonauts, Grey Cup champions last year, won't be in the playoffs. Montreal, Hamilton and Ottawa now are tied for first place. Just how they will finish depends on Saturday's scores. There are a half-dozen confusing combinations. Playoff dates have been set for Wednesday, Nov. 18, Saturday or Sunday, Nov. 21 or 22, and Wed- nesday, Nov. 25. D. Wes Brown, league. secretary, said Monday that if Montreal is involved, the Nov. 22 date will stand for a Sunday game in Montreal. Otherwise the date will be Nov. 21.

Albino Deer Seen Near White River Revives a Legend WHITE RIVER -- Officials of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests here, hopelessly ro- mantic so far as Indian legends are concerned, have come up with a new addition to Ontario's Indian lore. There's a large remote and re- latively inaccessible region known as the '"Puckaska'" or "Puckasaw" in the district. It takes its name from the river which drains the area. The name as nearly as the officials can discover, came from that of an Indian of unsavoury and undesirble character who lived in the district many years ago. Remember, they aren't vouching ot the authenticity of the follow- ng: The bad Indian, John Puckaska, or Puckasaw, became enamored of an attractive Indian girl. The story goes that John abducted her and took her to his lodge in the country which now bears his name. The girl's relatives and friends took off in hot pursuit. The rescue party arrived a bit late for the Indian had already killed the fair damsel, so they say. The villian was allegedly killed by the avengers and twin graves near the mouth of the river are supposed to mark the spot. To bring the story up to date: Recently a very light white-tail doe deer, probably an albino, has been seen in the Puckaskwa country. "Doubtless this will become, in the minds and stories of many ago, now come back to haunt the place of her death," say the heart- wrung White River officials. Dept. In Market for Seeds of Wild Shrubs PEMBROKE -- The Department of Lands and Forests is <n the market for seeds of several shrubs to produce winter feed for part- ridge and pheasants. Required are 400 pounds of seed of native high- bush cranbe:; (viburnam trilo- bum); 90 pounds of nannyberry or vibrunam lentage; 40 pounds of wayfaring tree or hobblebush (vi- burnam lantana); 45 pounds of European highbush branberry (vi- burnam opulus) and smaller quan- tities of seed of Canada holly, snow- berry, coralberry. 'These seeds should be picked in the fall and prices paid per pound will depend on the length of time required for picking," the Department announc- ed. The seeds will be planted in Department nurseries -and then transplanted out in areas requiring winter feed for bird life. MANTLE ON CRUTCHES SPRINGFIELD, Mo.
