In Ice'Loop Is in Peril

Important changes in the West ern division standing in the American Hockey league were certain after tonight's games, in which Buffalo or Cleveland can either pass or tie Indianapolis for the lead, Buffalo, now second with eight points to nine for the Capitals, will take undisputed lead with a victory over Cleveland or will tie Indianapolis if tonight's game is a deadlock. A Cleveland victory will tie the Barons with Caps: Philadelphia plays at Pittsburgh and Hershey at Springfield in other games. : Flyers, Hornets Tie In last night's only game, St. Louis rallied for four goals in the {last nine minutes and tied Pitts- { burgh, 6 to 6. Hec Pozzo and Morey Rimstad each scored two goals for St. Louis and Don Metz and Wallie Wilson got two each for Pittsburgh. Wilson also got two assists. In New York, the board of governors of the league votéd to retain the same playoff plan but boosted [the pool for the series some $30,000 [to $74,600. At the insistence of Indianapolis General Manager Dick. Miller, the {governors voted also to garb the officials in green shirts Instead of {white now being used.

. {honored series between the two

Western conference rivals. For Coach Cecil Isbell's crew, which has been handicapped all season by a prolonged series of inJuries to key men, it will mark the first appearance in Ross-Ade stadium since the season's opener with Miami. A rugged road schedule has kept the Boilermakers out-of-town for five successive week-ends. For Boilermaker alumni, the encounter with the speedy Badgers will be the'official homecoming. Returning alumni will materially swell what is expected to be a capacity crowd of between 33,000 and 35,000. Depend on Passes Purdue's charice to even matters in the series with the Badgers, as well as to pull up on even terms for the current season will be at stake. In 30 games in the Wisconsin Series, the Boilermakers have won 12, lost 13, and tied five, while during the current campaign Purdue is credited with two victories, three losses, and one tie. The Boilermakers, who have staged dramatic finishes in: their last two starts to tie Ohio State and defeat Pittsburgh, again are expected to depend largely on their | wide-open style of speed attack, with the ‘accurate passing of Bob ‘DeMoss and John Galvin as one of the main ground-gaining weapons, Largely through their efforts, im six games this season, the aeriale minded Purdue squad has eome pleted 56 of 119 forward passes for an average of .470.
