see. But when you (or rather, Buffalo) play 31 games on it and put in countless hours of practice, you get used to it. The other clubs don’t. Then there is the home crowd with which to contend. And if you think that doesn’t make a’ difference, then your thinker needs a going over by either a mechanic or an MD. : When the Caps last played in Buffalo, Tony Bukovich practically had to be escorted out of the rink to keep some of the New Yorkers from committing bodily harm. And Tony isn't considered a particularly dangerous character in these parts. The truth of the matter is that it; looked ‘as though he just was ws! fending himself against the Bison's

It isn't fun, but it's important.

Buffalo saw it differently, and: our Tony was a villian not only to be hissed and-hooted but also challenged. (P. 8.—Mr. Bukovich was willing, but it was mostly sing and hooting.) After that, every time our boys threw a check into an incoming forward it sounded as though the roof were coming down-—and on their heads. It was no wonder that they lost the game. That's the kind of partisan treatment they'll be up against in the playoffs, and they'll have to be sev-
