‘SPORTS...
By Eddie Ash
TWO YEARS ago on March 13 a lot of superstitious
athletes made every effort to escape the jinx by going -about their business in a careful manner. . . . But Carl ~ Liscombe of the Indianapolis Capitals’ hockey team gave .ho thought to anything but giving the rubber biscuit a
ride. !
Carl was a member of the Detroit Red Wings at the time and was playing against the Chicago Blackhawks on his home ice. . . . He got red hot and brought down the
house and dumfounded Goalie Mike Karakas by rapping in three goals in one minute and 52 seconds, breaking the fastest individual scoring record set by Pete Lepine more than a decade before. ~ And that season (1937-38) was Liscombe’s first as a big leaguer ~. and he led the Wings in scoring. . . « He was born in Perth, Ontario, ‘and will be 25 in May. . . . Carl turned pro in 1935-36 when he signed a Detroit contract and became a regular the next season.

"HEC KILREA of the Indianapolis team figured in the longest. league hockey game at Montreal March 24 and 25, 1936, 176 minutes -30 seconds. 2, . The score was Detroit Red Wings, 1; Montreal Ma-

The winning goal was tallied by Modere Bruneteau, on a pass
from Kilrea, at 16:30 of the sixth overtime period, at 2:25 a. m. .

WRITING in The Sport Fan, Owen Griffith points out that
basketball got a winning idea from hockey some years ago. .
.. And
now hockey may lift an idea from baseball. Griffith says that where baseball’s playoff system was actually jaken from the hockey plan in vogue for many years, a keen student of hockey sees the ice game adding the warmup stunt in order to keep players at razor edge condition for injection into game.
Veteran Trainer Urges Warmup Rink BILL O'BRIEN, trainer for many years for Montreal Maroons,
is
man behind the idea that professional hockey will in time have
warmup spaces provided for players in order to allow them to keep skating and on edge for their turn on the ice just as baseball has its
_bull-pen where pitchers warm up.
Trainer O’Brien, besides spending over 30 years as trainer for hockey teams, has been a baseball trainer for many summers, mostly with Montreal Royals of the international League. : And the baseball hockey angle is all the more complete in that it -was President Frank Shaughnessy who evolved the play-off system for baseball. . . . Now President of the International Baseball League, Frank Shaughnessy did a lot of hockey coaching in his time.
® td
THE IDEA was born as, Trainer O’Brien was discussing hockey
of today and what the game of the future will be. .
. . But this idea
‘of the warmup rink to keep the players keyed up for their injection into the play can best to be described by Trainer Bill. “Often times I have heard players complain, after they come off the ice, that they were not warmed up when they entered the
game, “And that is
quite true. Sitting on the bench in the rinks, even
though majority of the buildings are well heated, the players, after their pre-game warmup session of about five minutes, always cool
off. Their legs are mostly affected.
“Then they are shot into the game. I know from many years of experience that it takes a player more than three minutes to get loosend up. Sitting in cramped positions on the benches on the rink side the muscles tighten up to a certain degree.
- Speed and More Speed in Game “The warmup or exercise rink would be built alongside the regular rink, close to where the coach will stand so he could call the players into action with the minimum of delay. “Some people will probably ask me why there is need of an exer-
cise rink for hockey players.
Well,, if you look at the way hocksy
is going today, speed and more speed. Streamlined hockey is here. The game is advancing. Rules, equipment, types of play and conditions are all years ahead of the game of a decade ago.
» = » “SO WITH the advance made in everything, then naturally the players’ condition will have to be improved to keep pace with the
trend of everything else in hockey.
“The substitutes could be kept in the inclosure. There they could
skate around slowly, the mediate action.”

2 A.A.U. Embroiled in Rou On Travel OK’s—and $$$
NEW YORK, Jan. 24 (U, P.).— The seeming scarcity of short‘pantied track stars and the rivalry among competing promoters to secure the biggest names had the A. A. U. embroiled in an internal squabble today that may swell into an open breach between the national body and one of its major district associations. The present controversy began when the New York Metropolitan A. A. U. refused to issue travel permits to local athletes who wished to compete in the K. of C. games at Boston next Saturday night on the grounds that they should stay at home and compete in the Met A. A. U. championships. Coach Bill McGuire of the 69th Regiment A. A. took his case directly to National A. A. U. President Lawrence di Benedetto in New Orleans. Di Benedetto ordered Secretary Dan Ferris to issue the permits to McGuire’s athletes—Charley Beetham, Howard Borcke and Harold Cagle.
Sycamores Pull
Now, President Patrick J. Kelly of the Metropolitan A. A. U, challenges the authority of the national president to override the district associa-
tion and threatened suspension for any local athlete who made the Boston trip without travel permits. Kelly admitted that the major reason for refusing to issue the permits was to swell the prestige of the Met championships so it could be mov.d from a Brooklyn armory to Madison Square Garden next year. This may appear justifiable to the Metropolitan: Association, but what ‘about the athletes, who as bona fide amateurs running purely for the fun of it, should be able to compete where they please? It is a question of money—but not for the athletes. Some observers believe that if the Met Association persists in its stand, the national A. A. U. might invoke its right to suspend any district association by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Governors for violation of the national constitution.

Maki Leaves For America
STOCKHOLM, Jan. 24 (U. P).— Taisto Maki, Finnish champion runner, left Finland today for the United States where he will appear in track exhibitions for the Finnish Relief Fund. He was accompanied by Paavo Nurmi, who thrilled U. S. audiences with record breaking performances a decade ago. Maki plans to spend three weeks training either in California or Florida before beginning a coast-to-coast tour. He plans to return to Finland in April unless he decides to accept invitations to perform in South America.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 24 (U.P). —Ear]l Mack, son of President-Man-ager Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics will go to Grandville, Mich., this week with a handsome offer to bring Benny McCoy into the A’s fold, it was disclosed today. .

Inclement weather has failed to slow the pace in the amateur boxing clubs in Indianapolis as The TimesLegion Golden Glovers sharpen their punches and timing for the tournament’s second show at the Armory Friday night. Coaches report that the boys have trained with ‘more enthusiasm this week than at any time during the pre-tourney period and they predict a carnival of slambang, toe-to-toe entertainment when the next series of Gloves bouts get under way. The Novices far outnumber the Open contestants, but the younger leather tossers seldom are a step behind the more experienced lads when it comes to giving the customers a thrill at bargain prices. The eligible field stands at 145, consisting of 103 Novices and 42 Open Gloves gladiators. At least 24 bouts will be run off Friday, tourney officials said today, and they
‘also promised to get things going

made Armstrong a 2% to 1 favorite despite the fact that he will give away seven pounds in weight and two precious years in age.
Hungry for Title
The Montanez men, and there are plenty of “em, insist their boy will whale away at the body until Armstrong’s every rib aches and he gets that sickly feeling around the stomach. There is something in what they say, too, for this Montanez, born 25 years ago in Cayay, Puerto Rico, is ‘a tough, rib-crack-ing body puncher who probably deserves shorter odds than 21; to 1. Loser in only five of the 95 bouts he has had, Montanez comes up to this one hungry for a title and the fame and fortune it would bring. There is one weakness in Montanez’ fighting equipment and even one weakness is a bad thing to have against Armstrong, for he leaps at it like steel for a magnet. Montanez is a “bleeder”’—he gashes easily around the brows and there is always a chance that the referee will stop the fight because of excessive blood and give the bout to Armstrong on a technical knockout.
Trail’'s End Is Near
Win or lose tonight, Armstrong is getting close to the end of the trail. There is plenty of money in the bank and the little man already is looking forward to the time when he can retire and devote all his time to, of all things, literature. He writes poetry and now is working on the story of his life which he plans to call “When the Crowd Stops Roaring.” Today he is the only man who ever held the featherweight, lightweight and welterweight titles at the same time. Of those three titles only the welterweight is left and Henry the Hammer will be in there hammering tonight to keep it. He fought ‘em all, everything from featherweights to middleweights, and if he comes out on top this evening he may delay his retirement long enough to take one whirl at
