With 37 victories and six ties, the Cleveland Barons of the American Hockey league now have 80 points, their highest total in their 11 seasons in the ice sport's biggest minor circuit... . . They also hold the over-all lead im the league, three points better than Hershey, eastern division leader. +. + As a matter of cold figures, Hershey is only one point ahead of the western division's secondplace chub, Buffalo. "= ® STRENGTH IS IN WEST. . .. Two teams in the American Hockey league's eastern division are going to qualify for the post-season playoffs with far fewer points than one of the clubs which is going to be nudged out of a playoff spot in the western bracket. . . . With the exception of Hershey, the league's power is in the west. . . . The three high finishers in each division qualify for the rich series.
