GLORIFIERS SLIGHT WETLAND
Leo Macdonell writing in the
Detroit News says: •
There are in every sport great ath-
letes who go their modest way un-
stnig. Ili there is warbling it is not
lasting, or it is very faint.
Ralph Weiland of the Boston
Bruins appears to be one of those
athletic violets. By no means has
"Cooney" been an obscure hockey
player. Out to the wfiter it seems the
glorilfiers haven't done as much, as
they should for the clever Boston
center ice man.
True,' there .was some fuss kicked up
over him by ;Bostonians when the
Bruins won the world's championship
p. few years, ago, but the hockey
world apparently has forgotten Weil-
and holds all records for scoring the
greatest number of points in a sea-
son and that he is still playing bang-
up hockey.
Ilf we are wrong you may correct
-us, but you can't Stop us from bring-
ing op the matter. Weiland clicked 413
goals and 30 assists in, ,Boston's 'Stan-
ley 'CuP season. The Boston sharp-
shooter, along with "Die Clapper and
"Dutch" Gainor comprised one .of the
greatest scoring machines that ever
dashed across a blue line. They called
'em "'Phe Dynainite Line." Weiland
and Clapper are still doing valuable
service as hired hands for Art Ros's
and will he in the Bruins' lineup
against the Falcons at Olympia.
Gainor was traded to the New York
Rangers at the start of the season.
Weiland'A eve a iteMperament is
prohafbly one of the reasons that has
kept him in the ,background. He is
known as one of 'the coolest players
in ;hockey. Born:jn a small ,Ontario
called Egmondlville, the Bos-
ton player after his shinny days,
broke in with the Owen Sound Greys
and then hooked up with the Minnea-
polis Millers as a professional player.
He also engaged isa the insurance
business. ' He studied' dentistry at
University of Minne,apolis during his
playing days in the Minnesota metro-
polis; and married a oo-ed.
• Tiny Thompson, Boston's famous
goalie, and Weiland were teammates
on the .MinneapOlis dab.

Reduced Prices
on
Watch Repairs
Owing to the unusual conditions prevailing at
this time we feel that in the spirit of LairneSs to
the Public a reduction in the price of watch. re-
pairing is in onder.
We wish our Many patrons to feel that we are
willing to share the difficulties af this 'depres-
slot with them. The price while present condi-
tions last will be
Conditioning redaced from $2.00 to $1.5o,
'Mainspring and oiling from $1:50 to $1.25'
And all other repairs reduced in proportion'
This will not in the least affect the high stand-
ard of repairs we have always maintained. The
price alone will be affected, and will be in effect
until conditions improve.
