When hockey's greatest scoring ma-
chine, Maurice "Rocket" Richard of the
Montreal Canadians whipped home his
400th League goal, he set a record that
may never be equalled,
A little chap named. Guy Rousseau,
who plays junior hockey for Quebec
FrOntenacs, came up to. Canadiens on a three-game trial, A
mere 19-year-old kid who, playing his first game with Can-
adiens on foreign ice, and his second in the National Hockey
League, it was Rousseau who slipped Richard the •workman-
like pass pff which he scored the big goal with a lightnink
sweep of his stick in the third period of a game at Chicago
on December 18 last.
When the team left Montreal, Chicago-bound, Coach.
Dick Irvin said to Richard: "I want, you to look after this
little fellow Rousseau. I'm going to put him in to room with
you. He's fast and ambitious, but he's shy, and it will help
his complexes if he's with you." Richard put an arm around
the little fellow's shoulder and said; "You're with me, kid."
Rousseau's eyes fairly popped out at this sudden intimacy
With,a` hockey, great. A broad grin of sheer 'joy split his
features. He and Richard palled around together, an oddly-
assorted pair of ,buddies, from that time on.
Irvin started Rousseau on the Richard-Mosdei line and'
kept him there much of the game. And in the 'third Veriod,
„ he flipped a smooth pass to Richard, who was skating behind
him, and like &flash, Richard blasted the puck deep into the'
Chicago nets. ' '
After the goal was scored, Canadien players hoisted
Richard high on their shoulders. They planned to carry him
on a coMplete circuit of the' rink. But. Richard didn't want
that at all, and the players let him 'down.
"If I had scored that goal in Detroit or Toronto •or Mon-
treal, •I 'wouldn't mind the boys ',tarrying me' around," said
Richard later. "But it didn't mean much, scoring it against
the tail-end team, and• I didn't•like the parade idea at all. It,
seemed like rubbing it in."
This, we thought, was nice sporting sentiment. But
RiChard, noted as a fierce and fiery competitor; has made
similar gestures before and since.
'Not long ago, Richard and other Canadiens went to' Ste. Anne's- Hospital near Montreal to play in'a softball game for"
wounded war veterans. They visited the :wards afterwards.
Many of the patients asked for, Rocket's autograph. One
who had his legs in a cast was particularly insistent. He had
been badly wounded and his broken leg hadn't healed.
Richard obliged, then asked for his. "I should be asking
you whe have done so much more than I," said Richard,
quietly.
The sporting, circle of the 400-goals feat was completed
when, gter the Canodien club presented Richard with $2,000,
he promptly turned the complete• amount over to two Mon-
treal hospitals.

Following up on a New
Year's resolution to bring order
into our filing systein, we found
this story taken from The Week,
May 1.7„1933:
Unprecedented and widely
significant is a case, just corn-
ing before the Austrian, courts,
arising out of the alarm of the
Austrian. National Bank over
the financial revolution which
has brought prosperity to the
little Austrian town of Worgl,
and which the bank fears is
going to compete with its own
monopoly powers.
Worgl had been moving rap-
idly to bankruptcyd since the be-
ginning of the crisis. 'Its factor-
ies closed down one 'after an-
other and unemployment rose
daily. Nobody did any business
and scarcely anybody paid any
taxes. Then Unterguggenberger,
Burgomaster of Worgl, propos-
ed the following plan which was
adopted. I
The town autho'ritie's issued
to the value of 30,000 Austrian
Schilling notes in denomina-
tions of one, five and.ten Schil-
ling which were called ticketa
for services rendered. The spec-
ial feal I:e of these notes was
the fact that they decreased in
value by one per cent every
month.
Anyone holding one of these
notes at the end of the Month
had to buy from the local au-
thorities a stamp of saficient
value to bring the note up to
face value. This he affixed to
the back of the note, and the

Rocket" AlWays,
Seems To Miis ,
Maurice (Rocket) Richard,
greatest deal-scorer in the, his-
tory of' the National Hockey
League—Yet' he has never won
theleague's individual scoring
championship.
Further than that. This man
who haw; outdistanced all ethers
in .the ;nestvital,of departments
in any sport scoring—has had
tp settle for' second "place. On the
NHL, all-star team the past four
seasons.
It has been, recorded that' Toe
Blake, Richard's teammate en
the. Montreal Canadiens' famous
"Punch Line'';, )2of- Blake-,Lach-
Richard, once said. ' of The
Rogket:
"Maurice lives to score goals!"
Truly the expldsiVe Richard
is an intense„ fiery athlete whose
pride of performance drives him
to keep up his tremendous scor-
ing pace. Hockey. :players are
normally slow to unwind, from
the speed and excitement ,of a
game. It helps explain in part
the more than' $1,000 The
Rocket has had 'to pay inflines
over the :years.
But back to the scoring. In hii
12-plus seasons in the National
Hockey League, The Rocket has
poured more than 400 goals past
rival netininders.
The almost unbelievable No,
400 came last Dec. 18 in a game
at Chicago. You get an idea, of
the stature of "Richard's feats
from the fact that, only one
other player in hockey history
has passed the 300-goal mark.
Nels Stewart of the old Mon-
treal arid Boston teams had 324.
In the next few weeks, from
a little upstairs workshOp in
Toronto, will go 1,320.700 minia-
ture ear license key tags to the
car owners of Ontario.
Nineteen; war amps, all of
them minus at least one limb,
haye Made the key tags, In the
past nine years 10,500,000 minia-
ture key tags have been made
for Canadian car owners by
War Amps.
All the profit from the sale of
the miniature key, tags goes to
the War Amputations Distribu-
tion and Benevolent. Committee.
In nine years the net earnings
of the War Amps Key Tag Serv-
ice has been $207,844. Nearly'
200,000 man hours' employment
has been given to an average of
19 war amps, full-time,
Every .36 minute's in the nine
. years the War Amps office has
returned one set of lost car keys
to its owner,
That's the" whole idea of the
Key Tag Service. The owner
fastens thekrniniature key tag to
his car keys. If he loses them,
they are mailed to the War
Amps Office, There .a record is
kept of every car owner's name
and address and car license
'number.
In addition to restoring lost
car keys to their 'owners, the
key tag service also keeps war
amps usefully employed, and all
CLASSI,FIED •11,011fRIMING'
Yet because the scoring, title
is based on goals and assists-
one,,point each -- Richard has
never won that individual
honor.
• During the .years he has been
in the league that :honer has
gone, to Doug'Bentley'' of Chi-
cago, Montreal lixiema.te ElMer
,Lack' (twice), Herbie Cain
Boston, Max Bentley of Chicago
'(twice), Roy Conacher of Chi-

Gordie Howe of .Detreit.
Howe has won •the title the'
lait. four years and also the Hart
Trophy as. the leadtte'S .m o s t
valuable player in 1952 and"
1953, This" gees a long way' to.-
ward explaining why, .Richard

ater team 'since 1950; Both Howe
and Richard are right wingers. '

A further look at the right
wing situation unveils one Boom
Boom Geoffrion teammate of
Richard's at Montreal ,who this
year hal been„setting a goals-,

Boomer is' playing he- may push
both Richard and Howe tiff the
all-"star team.
Over the last,few years Howe
'has been setting a more blis-
tering goals-scored pace against
rival , goalies than the veteran
Rocket — with Geoffrion not ,far
behind. There may even .come
a time when they, along with
a player, such as Detroit's Ted
Lindsay, also will join 'the ex-
clusive' 300-goal circle,
Perhaps Howe and Geoffrion
will some day ,even challenge
• Rocket's "400" pinnacle.
But such an 'eventuality is still
a lot of ice.away. atichard is
there and he made it in specta-
cular, explosive. fashion. With
or without an.official league

By F. (BOB) VON' PILLS
Proceeds of the stamp went to
the poor relief fund.
The result was that the notes
circulated -with unheard of
rapidity. They were first used
for the payment of wages for
the building of streets, drainage
and other public works 'by men
who would otherwise been un-
employed. On the day when the
new' notes were' used eighteen
hundred schilling worth were
paid out.
The recipients immediately
hurried' with them to the shops,
and the shopkeepers and mer-
chants hastened to use them for
the payment of their tax to the
municipality. The municipality
immediately used them to pay
the bills. Within ,24 hours of be-
ing issued the greater part of,
this money had already been
passed on its way again. During
the first month, the money had'
made the complete_ circuit no
less than 20 times,
There was no possibility of
anyone avoiding the one per
cent stamp tax on any note he
happened' to hold at the end of-
the month, since without a
stamp to bring it up to face
value, the note lost its entire
value.
Within the, first four months
after the issue of the new mon-
ey, the town had accomplished
public works to the value of
100,000 schillings. A large pro-
portion of tax arrears had al-
ready been paid off and there
Were even cases of people pay-
ing taxes „in advance,
Receipts of back taxes Were
eight times greater than in the
past before the introduction of
new money. Unemployment is
now reduced enormously, the
shopkeepers are prosperous.
The fame of the Worgl Mir-
acle spread. Irving Fisher,
Ameritan economist, sent
cetrirnission Of enquiry to
gl, and the system has been in-
tredueed in a score or more of
American teWrishipl.

however was highly disturbed
by the whole proceeding: Now

The other day a hoard of Vic-
torian coins now worth £1,200
— 341 gold sovereigns, 63 half-
Sovereigns and 65. in silVer —
were found under a floor in an
old. Derbyshire house by a work
man renovating it.
It is believed to be the hoard
of a woman who lived there be-
fore the flrat World War, Under
the floor wag a favourite hid-

Many secret hoardings were
concealed in less likely places.
In one house a sum of £3,000
lay dormant, unknown to the.
London family whose dead par-
ents had hidden and then for-
gotten it.
One day, after the house had
been sold to a spinster, she was

vigorously that she broke. the•
