* The other day we happened across a
reminder that February 10 was the 15th
anniversary of the occasion on which
Acrel Joliat played his 700th game for
Canadiens in the „irrational • Hockey
League.
Could this 700 be a nue print'? we wt.11-
dered. 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 clown, on occasion, to a puny
135 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 much competition?
Yes, all this was possible. For Aurel Joliat was one at the
wonders of hockey. He came into the N.H.L. in 1922, a virtual
unknown. On Canadiens' roster was Newsy Lalonde, famous
from coast to coast, a player of tremendous craft and skill,
whose feats were legion, his name a household word. And so,
when it was announced in the summer of 1922, 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 out, Pvervthing
about Joliat seemed impossible.
From the start, this little pale -faced left winger, who in-
variably wore a black peaked cap pulled clown over his eyes,
was sensational. A pygmy among giants, he became the elusive
will a' the wisp of hockey. He could spin on the traditional
dune. His stick -handling baffled his opponents. And when, in
desperation his foelnan sought to eliminate him by body-'
checks, they found him to be the little man who wasn't there.
A great 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 seine
number as compiled by his illustrious team-mate, Howie
Koren
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 llIagnificent Mite Joliat,
physically handicapped, hut one of the great instinctive artists
of the game, one of the Great Little 11en who furnish brilliant
chapters in every sport.

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.

For prize apple pies, use a
sprinkle of salt, or salt pork

A quick and favorite lemon
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.
* * *
Try serving an ice cream "ice-
berg" on each piece of your choc-
olate pie, instead of whipped
cream. 0 0 *
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.
Chili completely before serving.
Serve drained crushed pine-
apple on top of cooled butter-
scotch filling. Top with whipped

Dinner Cold? Call the Janitor—Bat into homes and restaurants
in Florence, Italy, are these double -purpose radiators, which
contain a food -warning compartment,. Cynthia Chapman takes
a peek to see how the roast chicken's corning.
Hy Tul-kin — who knows his
boxers about as well as any man
writing — has a most interesting
article in a recent issue of 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.
:r r e
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 we?")
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 struggle
for survival of the fittest rias be-
come a matter of dollars, not
sense; where broken promises are
taken for granted, like broken
bones.
So boxing has become a sport
where "figures can lie, ana 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 done 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.
* -
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 feather-
weight. ., 1 *

Unquenchable Lew Jenkins had
been beaten 13 times, 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-
tan, 12; lightweights Jimmy Car-

Boxing is one sport in which
the champion is truly matte, 'not
born. A n d only managerial
inateh-making can bring a boxer
all the way to the throne room.
Ring history is studded with the
carcasses of fighters who were
among the greatest of their era,
vet never reigned as champions.
Here are just a few:

greatest fighter of all time, he

peak, but beat even the best
heavyweights.

annihilate today's softies.
