No. 49 Canadiens Facing Elimination Bulldogs, Lachine Triumph 16 HAWKS TOP BRUINS LEAFS. CIVICS BOW Art Parks Is Released To Louisville Squad HOCKEY I CASUAL CLOSE-UPS I By i SUFFER 2 DEFEATS AT RANGERS' HANDS AND APPROACH END LESS WORK; MORE PAY. Mike Karakas wasn't just sulking at home in Eveleth, frittering away the money-making months of his working year without any revenue coming in, while he refuaed to play minor-league hockey at minor-league pay. The ex-Chicago Black Hawk goalie was doing all right by himself referceing at $10 a shot "and getting games to handle just about seven days a week." So when you figure it out, Mike must have been making from $50 to $70 a week, which he maintains is more than he would have earned playing for Providence where the Hawks tried to send him after they displaced him with Paul Goodman just after Christmas.

He was making better money with much less exertion and no danger of injury. Thus Karakas had been on skates pretty steadily during the time he was suspended for refusing to report to Providence Until he came rushing to Canadiens' rescue on Saturday here. But he hadn't had the puds on for two weeks until he got Into action against Rangers you'd never have thought it to see him for the crouching Croat was In rare form and the Habitants defeat could not be laid at his door. His display was all the more remarkable when you consider that he had been travelling for upwards of 28 hours straight prior to his appearance here and he had landed into the Forum only a short while before game-time. He left his home-town at 2 p.m.

Friday and took a bus to St. Paul. All planes out of there were grounded by bad weather; so he went by train to Chicago. He flew from Chicago to Buffalo to New York to Montreal and reached the Forum at 6.30 Saturday night. THIRD LAMB TO THE SLAUGHTER If nothing else, Karakas's presence in Canadiens' nets over the week-end served to emphasize piling proof on proof that the trouble with the club has not been in goal.

He was the third netminder to shoulder the white man's burden in the Habitants' nets, and he fared no better than Claude Bourque or Wilfie Cude before him. It wasn't his fault; he can't score goals, he can only try to prevent the other side from doing so. Fans at the Forum Saturday will agree, as did the Canadien players, that Karakas produced a noble effort. The play-by-play accounts from New York last night indicated that Mike TO EXTEND STREAK Make It Nine Games in Row Without Loss in Downing Boston, 3-1 Chicago. February 25.

Chicago Black Hawks, playing their ninth straight National Hockey League game without defeat, set back Boston Bruins 3-1 tonight. It was the second loss in two nights for the Bruins who were beaten by a similar score by Toronto Maple Leafs last night. Johnny Gottselig led his mates to the first victory over Boston in two years of competition. The 33-vear-old veteran scored the first two Hawk goals and for his brilliant work received a tremendous ovation from the capacity crowd of 18,096, a new season high. The victory not only ended Bostons domination of the Hawks, but kent alive Chicago's streak.

The Hawks have not lost a game in nine starts, winning six and tying three. The game was le. than six min utes old when Gottselig took a pass from Joe Cooper and rammed the puck past Frankie Brimsek. The Hawks never were behind after that. The Bruins tied the coun later in the same period when Dit Clapper scored, assisted by Bill Hnllett and Herb Cain.

Thus the eame remained stale mated through a comparatively dull second period before the Hawks got under way again in the final period with two goals. Gottselig fired what proved to be the winning shot in the second min ute of the period after taking a pass from Jack Portland. About 12 min utes later the Hawks clinched the tame when George Allen scored. assisted by Earl Seibert and Bill Carse.

February 23. Montreal Canadient playoff hopes faed UJ1 furlher tonight a they a 6-2 beating from New York Har-gors. their second straight from the National Hockey League leaders in as many nights. Eight thousand fans watched the Rangers roll up a three-goal lead in the 14 minutes and coast after that. It was their first scoring outburst since they Whitewashed the Canadiens 9-0 here February 4.

With New York Americans Iising to Detroit, the Cana-tliCns missed a chance to cut off of the five points separating them frcm a playoff berth. Bryan Hextall. league-leading goal-getter, staitcd the Rangers on thejr way, opening the scoring after nLr.e minutes play and getting a second in another minute 2nd 25 seconds. He was aided on both goals by Phil Watson, who slso made the plays for later counters by Babe Pratt and Dutch Hilier. The other Ranger marksmen were Mac Colville and Alex Shibicky.

CLff Goupille scored for late in the first period and George Mantha beat Goalie Dave Kerr for their other tally in the last minute. Watson was special poison to the Car.adien defence, but was robbed bv Mike Karakas's sensational work.

KARAKAS IN FINE DEBUT Stars Despite Canadiens' 2-0 Loss to Rangers BT MARC. T. McXEIL. Even the splendid work of a frefh goalkeeper third they have uei in a season could not work any marked change in Canadiens' fortunes or misfortunes) and the club slipped another notch farther behind in the race for- a playoff berth on Saturday night at the Forum, dropping a 2-0 decision to Earners in the first game of a week-end. heme-and-home double-fce3er with the Blueshirts.

Mike Chicago Black Hawk goaitender. came out of self-imposed retirement to hasten by bus. train and plane from rm nome in tveleth, to fill in for the Habitants' crippled netmind- irg staff cf Wilf Cude and Claude Pourque. and to make his first K. appearance since Christmas Day.

The fact that he had been out (Continued on Page 19.) was on the job there, too; the half-dozen goals against him notwithstanding. Karakas is just the third netminding lamb that has been led to the slaughter by Canadiens this season. The double defeat by Rangers, incidentally, brought the doom of Canadiens' playoff chances just a little nearer. Those dimming hopes have not been totally extinguished yet, but they are barely flickering now. Even though the Americans were beaten last night, the Habitants still remain five points behind them and retain only one game in hand of the four they boasted a little over a week ago.

Canadiens were unable to take advantage of any of them. And now they have only eight games to go. Two of those contests are' "four-pointers" against the Amerks themselves next week-end, when the season's lnter-club series between them will be wound up. There may be a ray of hope there, for if Canadiens could win both of those it would help mightily. But the prospects are bleak.

Just look at the way the club has been going for the past 10 weeks and figure it out for yourself. The Habitants, who have not won a game on home ice in over two months December 14 was their last winning date at the Forum have lost 23 of their last 27 starts. They have won only twice and tied twice in that long stretch. They have now dropped five engagemens in a row and are well on the way to building up another gilt-edged losing streak. Out of those last 27 games, Canadiens have picked up a grand total of six points from a possible 54.

In other words, they have played hockey for almost two and a half months at a .111 average. There's not much reason to suppose they'll get any better now all of a sudden. If they don't, then, out of the 16 possible points the remaining eight games offer them," they will get less than two. In other words, they will gain 11 per cent, of 16 points which is 1.76 points which would leave the Americans in sixth place even if they did not win another game. Canadiens are down, and it's not likely they'll be able to get up this season.

HE DOESN'T LIKE TO TALK SHOP MUCH. Lester Patrick pulled a good one when a reporter approached him at the end of the second period and asked for a word with him. "Not now," replied the Silver Fox, "the trouble with you fellows is you always want to talk shop." "Hark at him," grinned the reporter, "Talking about people talking hockey shop; he talks it, eats it, lives it, breathes it" said Mr. Patrick with a straight face, "wish I were In Florida right now." "So do answered the reporter, "and if we were botth down there, (Continued on Page 19.)

Whether the results, with Verdun Bulldogs trimming Verdun Maple Leafs in the opener, 9-5, and La- chine Rapides handing Concordia an 8-2 setback in the nightcap, can be taken as proof that the Q.S.H.L. 's hold on the provincial championship is nearing an end is a question. But there was nothing flukey about the P.S.H! teams' victories yester day and both the Bulldogs and the Rapides looked mighty good. Jf you u.b.H.L.

In the opener, for instance. Bob Morin, rejected by several Quebec Senior League teams becau. of his size. or lack of it, sniped three goals. Bernie Fence and Conrad Bourcier got two apiece, Jean-Louis Bourcier got one.

All three performed with Verdun last season. The Leafs goals were counted bv Mickey Moynihan, Marcel Bessette. Moe wnite and Hugme Tracey, Bessette notching a pair. All but two of the Lachine goals were scored by former Q.S.H.L. players.

Paul Pidcock. erstwhile McGill ptar. counted a goal and two assists. Fernand Maicau. ex-Roval and Verdun player, had a pair of goals as did Maurice Bastien.
