THURSDAY, NOV. 20t1~, 1947 THE CANADIAN STÂ'4rESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO PAC~E F'TVU SPORTSDIGEST Joe Krol would rather have been a baîl-player! Yes, Cana- da's famous football star prefers the game of the diamond ta that of the gridiron. Krol's life story appears in the current issue of Canadian Sparts Digest and here- in he tells writer M. M. Walton, his little-known frustration. Krol came along at a time when ta be a big-time balîplayer was a diffi- cuit chare for a Canadian. As in the instances of fellows like Gea. Selkirk and Jef Heath, it re- quired migrating ta the States ta get major bail savvy. Rather than leave Canda, Krol adopted base- bail as more or less of a hobby and concentratcd on football ivhich he liked next ta the sum- mer game. Certainly, writes Wal- ton, it has proven that baseball's , gain wauld have been football's loss! There are three National Hock- ey League Players who have a chance ta become members of the eminent and very difficuit ta en- ter "200-goal club." There are only 16 members at present and only one of these is still consid- ered an active player. He is Canadians' Hector P"Toe" Blake. The three who make the charmed circle this year are Bryan Hex- tall of the New York Rangers, who prior ta the current season had 179 goals ta bis credit; Cap- tain Syl Apps of the Toronto Leafs who had 175, and Maurice Richard, who had 159. The great Nels Stewart is the ýonly player who has made the stili more dif- ficult "300-goal club." Nels rang the goal bell 323 times before he hung up his tack!
