1974 Profile: Howard Baldwin

PRESIDENT
"Getting involved in a professional sports franchise is not a new experience for Howard Baldwin. The 32-year-old President of the New York Stars is also President and Trustee of the New England Whalers of the World Hockey Association.
As President of the Whalers, Baldwin was named Executive of the Year by Hockey Spectator Magazine for the WHA's initial 1972-73 season. The Whalers were considered the most successful franchise in the WHA during their first season, and credit for the development of the organization belonged to the club's young President.
Baldwin is a native New Yorker. He is a graduate of the Harvey School in Katonah, New York and the Salisbury School in Salisbury, Connecticut, where he captained the hockey team for two years. He later attended Boston University.
From 1967 to 1970, Howard was Ticket Manager and Sales Manager for the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League. Previously, he served as Business Manager for the Jersey Devils in the Eastern Hockey league."
