Canadiens Push Further Ahead in Ice Hockey

Detroit, Mar. 7.

The Detroit Red Wings created a major upset to-night when they beat the Bruins, leaders of the American Division of the National Ice Hockey League, 4-3.

Despite their defeat the Bruins still continued to hold their four-point lead over the Rangers for the New York Blueshirts lost to their brethren, the Americans, 3-1.

In the Canadian Division, however, the leading Maple Leafs strengthened their position with a two game victory. They beat the Canadiens, 6-3, to-night and the Maroons yesterday, 2-0. The Leafs had a fairly easy time with both Montreal sextets.
