League's Longest Game

On Saturday, Chicago Cubs roll- ed up their years as they won 23-13 from St. Louis Cardinals in the .longest game ever played in the National League--three hours and 43 min- iiies. A 10-run fifth inning for Chicago was a feature as the Cubs pounded six Cardinals’ pit- ehers for 20 hits while three Chicago hurlers gave up 15. Pre- vious longest game was (1:38 be- tween Brooklyn and New York Sept. 6. 1952. The major league record is 5:52 set by Boston Red

If Killian

There was considerable writing I few weeks ago about Tony Les- wlck‘s chances of obtaining a De- troit Red wings con-tract next year. There was some speculation that his hopes of remaining in Detroit would rest on his showing in the

play-offs. If such were the case then Tony Lcswlck not only should remain with the Wings but should be given a considerable pay boost when it. comes time for him to sign a contract. It is unlikely that Lesviick will again ascend to the heights which he reached in the play-offs just completed but even if he doesn't the Red Wings will never owe him 8ll.1'llllll8- . . .

The little guy Joined a select group last Friday night when he fired that 30 foot shot which beat Gerry MacNeill and won the Stan- .l(y Cup for the Detroit Red Wings before the largest crowd of fans ever to jam into the Olympia Gal'- lldens at Detroit. Very few hockey players have ever had the honor of scoring the over-time goal 01 the “mi game to give their team the world's professional hockey champ- ionship. For Leswick. who ran-ked among the second raters durlnll the league schedule. it must have been the supreme thrill of his career.

Tony Leswick is a yountzer l3l’0l«l’l' er of Pete Leswick who Played ll‘ Maritime M-I101‘ Hockey League wlth the Halifax Saints two 3'93“ ago. It will be recalled that Pete Leswick was one of the smartest and most opportune players ever to perform here and that nearli’ every goal he. scored in that la- mented four game series with the Islanders in 1952 _was either I tying goal or a winnlllz W9. EVl' deniiy his young brother Wlulled the some ability for in play-OHS this year the younizer I-eswlck. C“_m° through with two gnine wiililiiig goals.

. 0 . At 31 years or are Tony Les- wick is the second oldest Player on tile Red Wings roster bcinl one year younger than Bob Gold- ham, who like wine, keeps ‘im- proving with age. He broke into the National Hockey’ League with the New York Rangers in 1945. The following year he had his best season in the majors as he scored 27 goals and assisted on 14 more for a total of 41 points. The next year he scored 24 K0315 and assisted on 16. He played with the Rangers for six )’€3l‘_5 before being t.radcd_ to Detroit where he has been used consid- erably in penalty killing. and de- [ensive rules. At. times in games against the Canadians he has been assigned the task of shadow- ing Rocket. Richard. O I I The Rocket was on the ice when Leswlck scored the goal to end the series last Friday. In fact. the Rocket and Elmer Lach had just. completed a sortie into Red Wing territory before Glen Skov and Lcswick started the return play which closed the series. Ex- actly one year before to the night. hour and very close to the minute Lach and Richard ended another Stanley Cup series in Montreal with Elegant Elmer firing the rubber past Jim Henry to win the Stanley Cup. Those two great tforwards almost combined to win it for Montreal again this year when Lach sent the Rocket in on Sawchuk during the dying minutes of the third period but the Rocket broke his stick and although he managed to get the puck into the net. the goal was called back. Terry Sawchuk. another fellow about whom there has been some trade talk, saved the series for the Wings in the third period of the final game with his great work in nets. It was sawchuk'.s brilliance which prevented Gaye Stewart from being the series hero and ending

The heart of the greatest long distance runner ever produced in this province and the king of long distance men in the Marl- time Provinces stopped beating on Saturday morning in the Char- luttctown Hospital.

That llCi|l'l. belonged to Michael “Mike“ Thomas who over 40 years ago set a Maritime record that still stands when he won the Halifax Herald ten mile road race three times in succession.

Mike Thomas, who was 70 years old at the time of his death. com- mcnccd running shortly after the turn of the century on a quarter- mile track made by the Indians at Lennox Island.

He won several Island and Maritime races before competing in the Halifax Herald competi- tions. He led the field in this 10

the season in Frank Merrlwell fash- ion. We have our doubts about the Wings ever consenting to trade Sawchuk to another club. They got away with such a move once Wllel‘. they dealt: Harry Lumley to Chi- cago but they knew what they had in Sawchuk. / O O 0

One of the disappointments of the series was the showing of the Canadiens line of Bellveau. Geof- frlon and Moore. This trio blasted Boston out of the ivory hunt in four games but failed to do much blast- ing against the Red Wings. As usual when the going was toughest the Canadians had to fall back on the old rcliables like Loch. Richard and Harvey. The Rockey had to be content with scoring three goals but only team-mate Buaher Currie scored as many in the series finals. Richard set another record at Montreal this year when he scored the first and last goals of the sea- son on the Forum ice. He was set up in typical fashion by Lach for

believe that this was Lach‘a fare- well to the Forum fans. . . .

It was hockey justice that the Red wings should win -the Stanley Cup this year. Over the season they proved that they had the best team as they won the League championship with five games to spare. Defenslvoly they are a stronger club than the Canadians while up front the clubs rate about a par. The Wings following a tough series with the Leafs ap-
