Canadian Sport Snapshots

(Canadian Press Staff Writer) iORbllTOpleb. 1B — (GP) - Kcep Junior sway from the rink,

mew,

Protect him from Bourgeois strife.

The soviet columnists think, mew, The puck game ls not a good life. They aren't dishing out. many laughs in the Moscow papers these days, but Pravda provided a few Western chuckles last week when its intrepid sports columnist un- dertook to tell the faithful of the superiority of the local brand of ice hockey over the Canadian pro- duct which apparently is making insidious inroads into the Russian sport picture.

The Russian gems, known as hockey-bendi, is played on a larg- er lee surface, and resembles a type of glacial football. Canada's hockey, says Pravda, is “unusually rough, typical of the bourgeois west," and the_~smsller rink "does not ccme from a good life." (Presumably another difference between the two games ls that all the Russian forwards are left- wingers.)

-Ths Moscow blast caused little excitement; - for less, for example, than arose when Russian musical experts imposed match penalties on a couple d! guys called shosta- kovich and Prokofieff for turning out subversive symphonies and capitalistic concertos. Bill (Owen Sound Sun-Times) Dane saw the hockey yarn as an improvement in East-West relations.

Bill finds it gratifying that the Russians find so little fault with the Western bloc that they have time to pick holes in Canada's Na- tional sport.

“if the Russians don't want ice hockey, Canadian style, it will be their loss and not ours," he adds, noting that there haven't been any demands for introduction of hoc- key-bendi over here.

—Sour Note From Kingston-

The possibility of St. Mary's Juniors of Halifax meeting Saints hers Saturday night in an exhib- ition hockey encounter petered out yesterday when negotiations fell through between the Forum and St. Mary's Club officials. It was the second time this season that efforts had been made to bring the classy junior team to the City. Communication was carried on most of yesterday with the St. Mary's team failing to budge from their price guarantee of $150.00. Forum officials, anxious to have the squad appear offered the sum of $650.00 hut it fell on deaf ears.
