For 700 games is a lot of hockey games. Was it possible that a sickly little fellow, whose ailing stomach often revolted at food, whose weight dropped down, on occasion, to a puny 130 pounds, could have survived that long in a gruelling, hard. hitting game played mostly by men whose weight ranged, on the average from 160 to beyond 200? Was it possible that starting 'in the days of 24 -game schedules, he could have squeezed in that mu!) competition? Yes, all this was possible. For Aure1 Joliat was one of the wonders of hockey. Ile came into the MILL. in 1022, a virtual unknown. On Canadiens' roster was Newsy Lalonde, famous from coast to coast, a player ot tremendous craft and skill, whose feats were legionInc name a household word, And so, when it was announced In the summer of 1022, that Canadiens had traded the great Lalonde to the Saskatoon club, for an unknown youngster, whose only hockey experience had been in junior ranks, the sports world was stunned, unbelieving. It seemed impossible. But then, as it turned nut, everything about Joliet seemed impossible. From the start,, this little pale -faced left winger, who in- variably wore a black peaked cap pulled down over his eyes, was sensational. A pygmy among giants, he became the elusive will o' the wisp of hockey. He could spin on the traditional dime. His stick -handling baffled his opponents. And when, in desperation his foeinan sought to eliminate him by body - checks, they found luau to be the little man who wasn't there. A gieat goaler of the era once told me that Joliat was the most dangerous sniper of his day, because of his accuracy, rather than speed of shot, The records support this, For in 16 , seasons of League play, he scored 270 goals, exactly the same number as compiled by his illustrious team-mate, Howie Moren A strangely -contrasting pair, Joliat at left wing, Morenz at centre. The silent, tight-lipped Joliat was smooth, skilful,. but unobtrusive, Morenz a flaring bundle of spectacular speed. For eleven consecutive seasons they formed a remarkable partnership. Usually, the centre makes the plays in hockey. But so great was Joliat's skill and craft, that at left wing, he was the play -maker, who fed Morenz the puck for the rifling drives fired by the Stratford Streak. A paradox of hockey was the Magnificent Mite Joliat, physically handicapped, but one of the great instinctive artists of the game, one of the Great Little Men who furnish brilliant chapters in every sport.

If your fam- ily calls pie its favorite dessert, why not give them a few sur- prise flavors? * * * Add 1 cup white or dark rais- ins to your best mince meat if you like a tart flavor. * * A few drops of lesion juice, er lemon extract, will give a piquancy to pumpkin or squash filling. * * Cinnamon added to all berry pies will spruce thein up.

A sure way of keeping the juice of berry pies inside is to preheat filling with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, until sufficiently thick. Cool before placing filling in partially -baked crust for bak- ing. Some people prefer to use 1 tablespoon of tapioca sprinkled over the lower crust before add- ing berry or juicy fruit filling. * * 5 For prize apple pies, use a sprinkle of salt, or salt pork very thinly sliced: a mixture of granulated, dark and light brown sugar; lemon juice and cinna- mon. * * * A quick and favorite lesnon chiffon or lemon sponge may be made by omitting the gelatin, and folding the stiff meringue into the cooled lemon filling be- fore pouring it into the baked crust. It must be served cold. This is a perfect icebox pie, gaining firmness as it stands. The crust will not soften. If desired, serve with whipped cream or chocolate chips. 5 * 5 Try serving an ice cream "ice- berg" on each piece of your choc- olate pie, instead of whipped cream. * xi * Cook two egg yolks with pre- pared vanilla pudding to make a good pie filling. When nearly cool, fold in stiffly beaten and sweetened egg whites, and place in pre-cooked pie shell. Sprinkle coconut and chocolate slivers over the top; place a moment un- der your broiler to brown coco- nut slightly and melt chocolate. Chill completely before serving. 5 * * Serve drained crushed pine. apple on top of cooled butter- scotch filling. Top with whipped cream. —From the Christian Science Monitor.

REA ONTARIO MANAGER Norti American Life end Crasualty Company, 47 La Plane Avenue Toronto Dinner Cold? Call the Janitor --Built into homes and restaurants in Florence, Italy, are these double -purpose radiators, which contain a food -warming compartment. Cynthia Chapman takes a peek to see how the roost' chicken's coming. 1Iy Turkin -- who knows his boxers about as well as any pian writing — has a most interesting article in a recent issue ot the "Police Gazette" about how de- ceiving records and figures are in connection with the fight racket. In any other sport, says Hy, the record book will tell you who's who. But in boxing, it's the match -making that counts far more — in many cases — than the fighter's real ability. a It's up to a shrewd manager to get his fighter the best match. "Best" often means avoiding the hardest - hitting contender. ("I don't wanna get my kid's brains scrambled.") Or, in some mana- gerial philosophies, "best" means the most lucrative bout, even at the cost of a promise to 'take it easy" against the other fighter, or at the cost of a cold-blooded over -match in weight and abil- ity. ("We're in this racket for money, ain't the?") Indeed, for all the bloodshed and brutality that go with prize fighting, its jungle lies outside the ring, in those primitive mana- gerial circles where the s'ruggle for survival of the fittest teas be- come a natter of dollars, not Sense; where broken promises are taken for granted, like broken bones. So boxing has become a sport where "figures can lie, aim liars figure." The ring record -book won -and -loss figures are a joke. a cruel joke. They'll show for instance, that Teddy (Red Top) Davis has lost 45 of 94 bouts But the cold figures don') even hint how many of these were split decisions, raw decisions, bouts stopped because of a su- perficial cut even though ne was ahead, or, worst of all, how many times Davis had to mix with men of higher weight divisions in order to earn a payday. 5 9 5 To prove how wrong won -and - loss figures can be, the afore- mentioned Davis has Lost 45 bouts, yet stands recognized as the world's fifth -ranking t,:ather- weight. n * * If ring records were tak,••I seri- ously, Freddie (Red) Cochrane would never have received a de- served crack at Fritzie Livic's welterweight crown in 1941 Cochrane had lost -30 bouts, in- cluding seven straight it one earlier stretch, up - to that time Yet be got his title shot and came' crashing through. Zivir himself, a real ring mast^,, had bowed 23 times (including a - string of eight straight) before earning the title. MERRY MENAGERIE "Geo, Morn, and Pop, don't you remember me? I'm leftover front last seasonl" Unquenchable Lew Jenkins had been beaten 13 tines, including five kayoes, before rising to the lightweight throne. Other recent champions with a long list of losses before earning the crown include heavyweights Jersey Joe Walcott, 15 defeats, and Jim Braddock, 20; middleweight Tony Zale, 12; welterweight Kid Gavi- lan, 12; lightweights Jimmy Car- ter, 11, Lauro Solas, 20 and Sammy Angott, 10; featherweight 'Joey Archibald, 13. 5 Boxing is one sport in which the champion is truly made, not born. A n d only managerial match -making can bring a boxer all the way to the throne room. Ring history is studded w:th the carcasses of fighters who were among the greatest of their era; yet never reigned as champions. Here are just a few: * 5 * Sara Langford: Possibly the greatest tighter of all time, he weighed only 160 pounds at his peak, but beat even the best beavytweights, Billy Petrone: The "Fargo Ex- press" was a slugger who would annihilate today's softies. * Mike Gibbons: A 148 -pounder who tangled with men 10 to 20 pounds heavier, one of the clever- est boxers of all time. Peter Jackson: Australian prod- igy who was one of the earliest victims of the "color line," * * * Harry Wills: Yoo hoo, Jack Dempsey! Joe Choynski: This 165 -pounder fought 'em all, including Corbett and Jeffries. ir Soldier Bartfield: Strong, rough and effective. 4 * George (Kayo) Chaney: Had the greatest kayo string of the lighter fighters. o * A Lou Tendler: One of the great- est southpaws of all time. * And don't forget — Pal )Moran, Jock Malone, Willie Jackson, Joe Jeannette, Charlie White, Valen- tine (Knockout) Hrosvn, Dave Shade, Tom Sharkey, Joe Benja- mm, Georgie Ward, Jeff Smith, Jern Driscoll, the Original Joe Walcott from the .Barbados, Ace • Hudkins—true champions, every- where but in the record books!
