Description
Caption: Johnny Wilson Shrugs Off Dismal Year: You heard about a man without a country.How about a coach without a team-or a place to play?.Johnny Wilson might be just that, a hockey coach with no player's bench to stand behind, But the possibility hasn't shaken his confidence,or his desire. Quite the contrary. A decision by the World Association owners in the next two days should determine Wilson's future,as far as the Baltimore blades,ex-Michigan stages,ex-Los Angeles Sharks are concerned. Early Last summer, Johnny Wilson signed a four year contract with Stags for a bundle worth more than $200,000. "I though I was secure-a four year contract and a real good salary. I thought I could not put away some of the money and by the rime I'm 50,I wouldn't have to worry about coaching anymore. When coaches reach at 50,its time they should get out from behind the bench anyway."[John Wilson:"It was just as bad in Baltimore"].

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below.
