The injury -riddled Chicago Black
(fa lr mourning) Hawks are on the.
verge of setting a recqr'd.
In going winless in their last721
games, the Hawks tied the all-time
record in that department. Not a
very pleasing one, though! The
New York Rangers, until the
Hawk's latest surge, were the sole
holders of the dubious record.
The Rangers called that record
during thb war years, when the
better portion of their club was in
the service. On January 23, 1944,
the Wings spanked them 15-0, and
from then until the end of the sea-
son the Blues weren't to win an-
other game. It was in that game
which the Detroit Red Wings set
so many records.
Their 15 goals is still the most
goals scored by one team in one
game. Eight goals of that 15 were
scored during the final frame, and
that, too, is a record for goals
scored in a single period by one
team. That 15-0 drubbing was also
the most consecutive goals scored'
by a team in any game, and the
15 goals and 22 assists, which were
credited to various players on the
wings, still stands as the :highest
scoring total for a single game by
one team.
Getting back to the Hawk's
downfall, their current winless
streak isn't quite as record break-
ing as the Rangers' one was. Al-
though they have failed to win a
game in the last 21, and have only
pulled in three points of a possible
42, they are by no means out of,
the play-off running. (Believe it
or not!) In fact, with'"a few breaks
and a little spert, they could be
in the thick of the race in short
order. Goodfellow's crew might be
in the cellar, but only 12 points
separate them from fourth, and 13
from third place.
Don't count those Hawks out yet!
The Black Clouds of impending
war cast their first shadow over
the player personnel of the Nation-
al Hockey League. Pete Babando,
American -born member of the Chi-
cago Black Hawks, was called up
for his U.S. army physical.
Toronto Maple Leafs gained
ground on the league leading De-
troit Red Wings last week, and now
find themselves only three points
in the rear. The Wings, current-
ly in the worst slump of the sea-
son, could only tie their game on
the week -end, while Toronto won
one and tied another, to gain three
points.

When you take over the farm,
one of these days, you'll want
to talk to him. You can discuss
your affairs in a friendly way, as.I
have done. And you'll find he knows a lot.
He knows we farmers need bank credit—
sometimes to put in a crop, sometimes to
take off a harvest. If we need market
information, he can get it for us.
Remember when we electrified the farm?
Our bank manager made me the loan.
He's backed us up that *ay for years,
helping us to improve our stock, increase
production. .
And that's what our bank manager is there
for—to help you and me to manage
He's a good man to know.
