Caps Start on Vital Invasion

The Caps, local hockey club, start| a “make-or-break” eastern trip today, with three games on the schedule and each one a “must” win. With the season going into its] second half, the Caps, who led the league for many weeks, are now in third place, seven points behind the league leading Hershey B'ars and five points behind the Cleveland Barons. But the Caps have lost more games and won less than either of the leaders. They have won 17 and lost 12, while the B’ars have a won and lost of 20 and 6 and the Barons have lost 7 while also winning 20. Standings are based on two points for a win and one point for a tie. Thus the Caps are in a bad way, since they have already lost games that the competition may yet win. Troubled by Injuries

Herbie Lewis’ boys have been troubled by injuries—to Sandy Ross, with a dislocated shoulder that may go out again any time, to Joe Fisher, with a bad leg, and to Goalie Joe (No! No!) Turner, who has just returned to the net after a boil on his hand. The local skaters play tomorrow night at Providence, to whom they lost here Thursday, 4 to 3. They meet New Haven Thursday and Hershey Saturday, then come back to the Coliseum Sunday to face the Washington Lions. Riding at the top of the league a month ago, the boys in blue went on a five-game Eastern trip and dropped all five of them.
