Crimson skaters may get a colder welcome home than they anticipated on returning to the Arena ice at 8 o'clock tonight.

The Huskies feature center Jim Bell of Waltham and watchcharm defenseman Frank Bell (no relation) who tips the scales at a mean 150 pounds. Coach Herb Gallagher shares Johnny Chase's problems at defense and had to move the lighter Bell from the forward post at which he excelled.
