teams and that was demonstrated in the rugged battle on Tues-

. Referee Don Whel-an did call 27 penalties but he was gen- grag’us at that. There were far too many sticks carried high. far too many elbows used, far too much holding right through the piece. Things were on the verge of erupting on several oc- casions but luckily nothing serious did occur. A few fellows put on a bit of an act of wild displeasure and were rewarded for

their nonsense.

It’s mi ht hald for one referee to catch everything. We thought Whgelabi’l got around to most of it. After all. he did call

27 penalties.

It's very easy to sit in the stands and damn a referee 0 his calls or lack of calls. Some folks delight in this and them i e Whelan had a most difficult game to handle and he did manage . to keep order in spite of some disturbed hockey players.
