Near Capacity Crowd Expected t Coliseum for First Home | ilt—Rossignol Scores Twice
: By BOB STRANAHAN Our Indianapolis Capitals, away to a flying start in the American Hockey league race with a 3-1 triumph over Buffalo, play these same isons tonight at the Colliseum and a near-capacity crowd is expected p attend. Governor Gates will be on hand to toss out the first puck, there'll a special relay race and all of the customary opening game trimmings. But most of all, Coach Johnny Sorrell hopes his charges can keep in the victory groove. The incoming Caps, however, are almost as much concerned about finding some place to park their valises as they are about winning hockey games. They can lick Buffalo, but this housing shortage is another matter. Share Hero Roles
Two newcomers in the Indianapolis" lineup were in hero roles last night at Buffalo for the opener, One was Winger Rosy Rossignol, who tallied two quick goals in the final period and the other was Hugh Millar, stocky defenseman, who sent the puck: Sizing past Goalie
