Who Won

P: The Chicago Black Hawks and the New York Rangers: the second and third place play-offs for the Stanley Cup:/- against the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Montreal Maroons.

P: Broad-shouldered, lackadaisical Wilfred ("Wiffy") Cox: his first important golf tournament, the North & South open, at Pinehurst, after a nine-hole play-off against Joe Turnesa.

P: Marjorie Sachs, 20 and lefthanded, daughter of Professor Paul Joseph Sachs of Harvard University: the Women's National Indoor Tennis Championship; at Brookline, Mass. Her name was not seeded in the draw. In the final against Sarah Palfrey, a more-to-be-feared player than her sister Mianne, who won last year, Marjorie Sachs won the first set 6-3. Then, when Sarah Palfrey needed only to win her own serve to take the second set, Marjorie Sachs beat her a love game, won two more for set & match.

/-Arranged according to a plan complicated by business considerations, the play-offs for the Stanley Cup are conducted as follows: at the end of the season, the team finishing third in the American Group (this year, the Rangers) plays two games against the team finishing third in the International Group (Montreal Maroons). The team which makes the largest number of goals in the two games wins and plays two games against the winner of a similar series between the second place teams (Chicago Black, Hawks, Toronto Maple Leafs). The winner of this series plays a series of three out of five games against the winner of a three-out-of-five series between the two teams which have finished first in the two groups (Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens). The winner of this last series wins the Stanley Cup. The advantages of this system are that six of the ten teams in the National hockey league share in the playoffs, which draw bigger gates than league games. The disadvantage is that games in the league schedule have almost no significance.
