t:oaltendlng,has been a prob- lem. Bobby Dillon was just a lilile unsteady in the cage, al- though in all fairness to the lad we might point out that he didn't get the help a goaltender needs liom his bluellne brigade. Shel- don Jordan replaced him for the game Tuesday and turned in a solid effort. in fact the entire llontague team looked good and the Flyers had no picnic. it was s battle right down to the wire. Piirkdale had the edge in the play. we thought. and deserved the win. Yet Montague certain- 13' was a better team than the one that took severe beatings from the Flyers and 3- Y. C. in previous Kim”-

The only two wins swned by the Primrnses. by the way. were at Summerslde's expense. The fact is that the Aces. even with their new, improved lineups. have had their hands hill every time they clash with Montague. Both games in which the Aeee have beaten Primroses were decided by one goal and the last tussle went into sudden-death overtime. Both games were at Civic Stad- ium .

The island League heads got together Wednesday night for s scratching session in Charlotte- lmrn. The big itch was the old biiizaboo finances. Some league fans were quite disturbed hy ni-

mnrs that have been flying about but the whole thing was no hutsmolshtlltryingits bestto look like a mountain. it didn't takesnytinseatalltotron out the problems once certain things were made clear to the bosses of the teams and everything boiled down to nothing but a misunder- standing.

We will try to make it clear to ear renders so if you will follow me. here we Is. Taking Mont- ague and Aces is help as out in ear explanation it goes like this. The Primrnses only play eight games in summerelde while Aces face Montague only twice at Charlottetown. By simple sub- traction the Primreses make six extrn visits to Summers? . In the beginning of the year it was agreed at a meeting that the Montague team would share In three of those six "extra" games at Summer-side-getting 25 per- cent of the total take minus rink expenses and a percentage to the M.A.Il.A. which came effthe

teams shared the relssalning fifty per- cent down the middle-

Now this is the way we under- stood it.' It was also the way the league secretary and presi- dent and a couple of the teams' representatives understood it. How- ever, some of the teams thought the agreement was that the vis- iting Charlottetown teams would get a share in all six of those "extra" games.

This was the big mlsunden standing and when this was brought is light at the meeting and the present position sf the Aces as a separate unit irons Clvle stadium was made clear. the delegates had, little trouble in reaching common ground and coming to an agreement. We feel we can advise inns new that they can lay whatever fears that they had for the solidarity of the league aside. Front this angle all looks serene and steadfast and a banner year for nearly everybody.

Henceiorth the visiting Char- lottetown team at Civic Stadium will have a choice of s 25 percent cut of the gate or a guarantee of 360.00 whichever is the greater- and we have no qualms at all about believing that 25 percent will always be the greater. All playoff games-both in Charlotte- town and Summerside-will he cut down the middle after the expenses and 50 percent share of the ice palaces are taken out.
