Trying to shoot the puck past Thompson has proven about as satisfactory s trying to put it through a stone wall. “It isn't generally known that he is Scotch,” chuckles Manager Art Ross. “And that is why he is un- willing to give away goals.” But all humor aside, Ross insists that Thompson is the greatest gealie he has ever seen. Records for the first 20 games played by the Bruins reveal Thompson’s rec- ord as the league's best. “Tiny” allowed only 24 goals per game. The record of no other goalie ap- proaches this average. Thompson, who came originally from West Calgary, Alberta, played with Bellevue, Duluth and Minne- apolis before he came to Boston. He was an instant success in the National hockey league. The Bruins began the 1929-30 season by winning 18 games and losing but two, and including winning streak of 13 straight. Tiny is remarkably fast on his feet, a very heady player and probably clears the puck faster than any goalie in the league. Re- peatedly he is clear out to his blue line, giving his players breaks on rushes which they frequenuyl turn into scores. a) a runaway race of it in the National Hockey League principally be- cause of the superb work of “Tiny” Thompsgn, thc league's leading goalie Interes By GEORGE CHADWICK | NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—When the boys gather around the hotel lob- | bies and on the playing fields in a few weeks at the spring training camps there will be a lot of con- versation churned up about the ten- man baseball team. This suggestion was made by President Hydler of the National League and it is a fact that in baseball circles right now increasin; |interest is being displayed in the subject. | The ten-man team idea has not met overwhelming endorsement be- ic‘ausc it involves a very radical |change in the national game. Modification Suggested This observer herewith presents a jsuggested modification of the rules 10f baseball which would do much to give pitchers a fair deal and would iput an end to the strategy by iwhich managers deliberately try to 'force a strong pitcher out of the box, or by which a manager sacri- |fices a strong pitcher to gamble on one batter and a possible victory. | Rule 28, Section 2, now reads “Any such substitute at any stage iof the game, except when the ball is in play, may take the place of a player whose name is in his |team’s batting order, but the player, whom he succeeds shall not there- lnner participate in that game.” | Now add to this section the fol- lowing new clause: t Is Aroused in Ten-Man “Except that the pitcher of the, TN THOMPSON Boston Bruins’ AT THE HOTELS | Pekovich, Bill Koroff. | ZYNDA—F.

The ruling was announced after Landis had interviewed Arthur Shires, the White Sox first base-| man, who had made $10,000 recent- ly as a professional pugilist. | | Judge Landis' ruling was as fol- | lows: | “Hereafter any persons connected with any club of this organization ;\\'lll be regarded as having perma- |nently retired from baseball The (two activities do not mix.” | Shires is not disqualified as baseball player because of his pro- {fessional ring career to date, al- itHough he already 15 under suspen- Ision by both his club and Landis 1bccnusc of his “bad boy” antics dur- ing the 1929 season.
