They also have a brand new idol for New York's hockey fans. Ehrhardt “Ott” Heller, an unassum- ing young defense player who came up from their Oanadian-American League farm at Springfield is the new “big gun” of the Rangers and to him goes a large part of the credit for their four-game victory over the Mon- treal Canadiens in the series between the league's first place teams. Heller scored a goal Sunday night that gave the Rangers a game margin over the defending champions, and Tuesday night he touched off the scoring spark that brought New York | a 5 to 2 triumph and a victory in the series, 3 games to one. He sank two goals in succession on unassisted plays in the second period and although the habitants made a game attempt to come back they couldn’t quite make | up for that start. Bill Cook, Cecil Dillon and Butch Keeling made the other Ranger tallies while Wildor Larochelle and Albert Leduc tallied for the Canadiens, Meanwhile the Maroons and Tor- onto were defeating rivals from the United States in the second and third place playoffs. They will clash at! Montreal Thursday and at Toronto Saturday in a semi-final series of two games, total goals to count. Their league that the state football cham- pionship be revived. The mentors feel that something is lacking in state high school football circles and that the return of the state title would add interest to the games, both from the public's and player's viewpoint. The coaches also requested of the board that the association be given a voice in the choice of officials for the state basketball tournament. A state football conference, com- posed of the 10 to 12 largest schools in the state, was recommended by the association. Conferences for the |smaller schools also were favorably discussed. A part of the convention of the North Dakota Education association, which is to be held at Grand Forks next October, will be given over to the association. R. D. McLeod of Bismarck was elected president of the organization, Bob Brown of Fargo was chosen vice president and Harley L. Robertson of Minot was reelected secretary-trea- surer. All coaches in North Dakota, whether high school or college, are eligible to membership in the asso- ciation. Garden Calls Off Championship Tilt Think Battalino Will Need 60 Days to Recover From Petrolle Fight _New York, March 30.—(?)—It looks {like Madison Square Garden will have to postpone the lightweight title bout it hoped to stage in May be- tween Tony Canzoneri and Christo- pher (Bat) Battalino, former feather- weight titleholder. Battalino, who took a severe beat- ing from Billy Petrolle at the Gar- den last week, has been advised by the New York state athletic com- ;mission to take a vacation from the ring for “at least 60 days.” The commission evidently believes Battalino will need at least two months to get over the effects of the Petrolle match which he lost on a technical knockout in the 12th round, The Garden, which has a Canzon- eri-Battalino fight virtually lined up, expects the commission’s suggestion jo force postponement of the match juntil early June. >——___________, | Express Cashes in | 4 i On Latest Victory | ——_—__________—_.

March 30.—(P)— Ellsworth Vines of California, nation. al singles champion, was out of the running Wednesday in the second an- nual Houston invitation tennis tour- nament. Vines, seeded No. 1, was upset Tues- day by Martin Buxby, 20-year-old Texas university sophomore, 4-6, 6-2, 7-5.

They put the ball just where they wanted it 14 times out of 15.

He is shown here with his trainer, Theodore Searles, University of Hawail tank coach, because Martin literally stole a ball game from the Phils in the exhibition play by running wild.

Has he any weakness? “Not that I have noticed,” respond- ed Shotton. “They will tell you he’s @ sucker for a fast one inside but so are a lot of fellows. “I have seen Martin take just such fa pitch and slam it to thie fence. He's a natural hitter—make no mistake about that—and he has lots of con- fidence up there at the plate. “Any boy who can hit and run the bases like Martin is bound to be a star.” Burt may have been a bit biased ics are among the war correspond- ents who reserve the right, quite pro- perly, to make their own guess on what will happen this season. Klein a Gift Speaking of the Cardinals and the Phils naturally revives the circum- stances by which Chuck Klein hap- pened to go to Philadelphia and be- come one of the game’s greatest Sluggers, instead of to St. Louis. Branch Rickey, boss of the Cardi- nal farm system, had Klein tagged when he was breaking in with Fort Wayne but couldn't land him, due to @ hitch in club ownership that was under the eagle eye of Commissioner Landis. Consequently Rickey did a good turn for his old friend, Burt Shotton, by recommending Klein. sen was @ break, any way you look al a Watson Defeats St. Paul Fighter Dawson Middleweight Knocks Out Larry Brown in Second Round Fargo, March 30.—(#)—Al Watson, Dawson, middleweight, and Marty Bond, Fargo. featherweight, carried off verdicts in the feature six-round bouts of a double windup boxing card here Tuesday night.
