FOLKS AROUND these parts who had the‘pn'vilege of hear- In‘g aha-once Campbell‘s address Monday night at the tenth mail hockey school, are quite satisfied that the National Hoc- key League is In most capable hands.

The N.H.L. president had a most attentive audience and all his listeners could have sat there much longer and enjoyed every urinate of it. Mr. Campbell made his talk so interesting thataliwerewishinghehadcmtinuedonforalmgerpenmi.

IN CANADA’S sporting world, Clarence Campbell is indeed a big man.

Mr. Campbell is 11 Rhodes scholar, a Queen's Counsel and a men of outstanding leadership qualities. You need just In listen to him to fully appreciate his capabilities. He dis- plays a cool confidence that in no way is tinged with egotism. He lmowa his job and, knowing it fully, gives him assurance when be weak: of it to others.

THE N.H.L. PRESIDENT listed many requirements for a competent hockey odficial. Mental and physical capabilities are indeed necessary but with these must go good moral character. Mr. Campbell stressed that the conduct .of his, officials must be of a high order all the ice as well as on it. No referee can be a success it unbecoming conduct can be attributed to him even outside the ice surface.

This seems most logical. A person of dubious character can’t beexpectedtocommandrespectontheiceifhiswtionsoffthe icedonotwarrantanysuchrespect.

MR. CAMPBELL went on to lay that although officials seem todrawagreat dealofcritioisnfromplayersandfans, their performances, the greater part ofthe time, are of a higher or- du' than those of the playm.

Leafs Will Offer. Coaching Job To Winnipeg Coach

TORONTO (OP) —— The Globe and Mail says in a Montreal dis- patch that Toronto Maple Leafs will offer All Pike, coach of Win- nipeg Warriors, the job of coach- ing the National Hockey League Club.

Leaf general manager George (Punch) Ilmllacth said he has re- ceived permission from Jack Per- rin, general manager of the West- ern Hockey League Warriors, to negotiate with Pike.

“1 plan to talk with Pike. in the next day or so," the Globe quotes Imlaoh as saying. “Whether we can reach an agreement remains to be seen. First of all I want to find out if he is interested.” halal-h has been coaching Leafs himself since he fired Billy Reay. who was in his second season

.with the club. a week ago. Reay

was blamed tor the Leafs’last- place showing this season. There is speculation that War- riors may demand one or more players in return for Pike's serv- ices before expiry of his warrior contract at the end of the sea- son.

“That might complicate our ne- gotiations,” Imtlach is quoted as saying. “I think he's the type of coach we need but v. 3 not in a position to offer Winnipeg any players. We may be able to work something on ."

Van Pelt. 23 - year — old rookie who set a Grey Cup scoring rec- ord of 22 points as Bombers de- feated Hamilton TigerJC'ats 35—28 last Weekend, was a late addition.

II‘:-a<:tu-e lime 1:, 6.1"1 to '4',00 p m d

By BOB TRIMBEE Canadian Press Staff Writer VANCOUVER tCPt—A plan de-

signed to develop athletic coaches of international standards was submitted Tuesday to the general meeting of the Amateur Athletic Union of Canada.

A draft of the plan. approved by the AAU's track and field committee, is to be placed before the annual convention for ratifi- cation.

The program. financed in large part by student fee's. is similar to that now used in Great Brit. arn.

Candidates, who need not be amateurs, would enroll for one of three coaching degrees and upon completion be granted a national, senior or coach’s certificate. Only national certificate holders would be qualified to coach internation- al or national teams.

WILLING TO START

Jim Pullen of Toronto. a Cent- ral Ontario branch delegate. said if national approval is given, his branch is willing to inaugurate the program at the branch level.

“But not only do we want the AAU to endorse plan, we want them to implement it," he said.

The program will be operated by a national sub-committee as- sisted by branch committees set up to function at the local level.

The national track and lieldl committee Thursday altered its regulations to allow midget. ju- venile and junior athletes to par- ticipate in events in high classi- fications if similar events are not available at their own age level.

DOWN THE

BACK STRETCH

We.alnways keep some reserve material on hand for this column, and we are delighted to use the following which comes from a noted Prince Edward Islander who lives in Greenfield. Mlassa- chusetts, but prefers to remain anonymous.

His memory goes back to the late 1890‘s, and his scrapbooks contain records of the deeds of hundreds of horses that t-hrll‘ed our people through the years on Island racewayts. In this letter he tells of a new raceway. and we quote:

BEGINNINGS

“Hillsdale Raceway. in Hills - dale, New Hampshire, was open- ed this past summer, and its suc- cess was beyond the fondest hop. es of the management. It is 23 miles from my home here in Greenfield. and I believe when the season ended my car could go there alone.

“Previous years we had to go a hundred miles, to either Sara- toga or Foxboro. to see horse rac- es; it was the same distance to either place. and it was tiring. Hillsdiale is so comfortably near, and they are applying for dates in June. July and August next year.

“I met Alden Young of New Glasgow. at Hillsdale and he drove exceptionally well. He looks like a very competent trainer and driver. Since Hillsdale clos- ed Roclcingham Frank has been open. but it is a bit too far away for us. and the weather is get- ting cold, and the ride home at night very foggy. I saw two hors- es from Fredericton, N.B.. both by N. D. Hal, Woodstock. N.B. sire, give a very creditable ac- count of themselves there. They were classified tough.

ON THE ICE

“In one of your recent columns you mentioned that Allison Lan- gille was born in River John. N.S. That was a hotwa of racing years ago. and they had a lot of good horses. In the early ’90's, racing interest was at such a fev- er pitch that Ronnie Steele was brought over from the llsland to drive a horse in a match race on the ice. It is claimed that more than 3.000 people watched the race. A year or two later. another match race was raced on Pictou harbour. which was won by a horse firom River John, driven by the late P. S. Brown who was brought over just for the occasion. The loser was a colt

owned by Newton Lee. the owner of Alli-fight, who was then living in Truro.

“At the opening of the Union Driving Park in New Glasgow, N.S.. on October 2. 1884, P. S. Brown was invited to come over to New Glasgow, which he did. He brought Dean Swift. and it was there that Dean Swift got his mark of 2.39 to a hilghdwheel- ed sulky. Our Island horsemen were well known for their abili- ties in those (lays. The free-for- all was won by Long John, then owned in Truro. Long John was by Kiugbird, a stallion owned by Newton Lee when he was in Slum- merside. When Kingbird died, Newton Lee bought Allright. La- ter he moved to Trur‘o. where he ran the'Victoria Hotel. AUTHOR

“I recently met a- granddaugh- ter of William H. Murray. who sold Allright to Mr. Lee Mr. Murray was an ordained minis- ter, whose love of trotting hors- es resulted in,his establishing a stock farm with Taggard's Ad- dullafh as the stallion. He achiev- ed unusual s-uccess in the ven- ture and wrote a book entitled “The Perfect Horse". How to breed him; train him; shoe him; and ‘drive him. It had very wise circulation at that time, and mdoubtedly it brought his stock farm a great deal of publicity.

“Mr. Murray‘s granddaughter has been trying to find a copy of the book to give to each of her children, and was directed to me by book dealers that knew of my collection."

The above letter will appeal to oldetimers and their descendants. We have a particularly fond mem ory of the'late P.S. Brown. In the year 1882 I was a very sick boy with deadly diptheria. It was rempant and many people were dying with it. I remember my father bringing P.S. with him, and P.S. encouraging me to gar- gle with a mixture of murlatic acid and water. It cut the ph- legm; I survived, but a great many did not.

Dodger Draft Propose Gels Increased Backin

WASHINGTON ( AP l—Backln g increased Tuesday for a compro- mise drawn up by Los Angeles Dodgers to the disputed proposal of a majorminor league commit- tee for an unrestricted baseball draft.

The issue will reach its first test today when the minor leagues consider riva-l draft. bonus recommendations at the closing business session of their annual convention.

Frank Lane, general manager of Cleveland Indians, headed a nineman committee representing both major and minor clubs which presented the unrestricted draft plan. This would make all minor leagucrts permanently eli - ible after their first year in or- ganized baseball.

MADE SELECTIONS

Minor league players now may be drafted by the majors only

after they have completed four seasons

Under that rule the majors have selected 12 and the minors 18 in meetings here this week. The players cost total of $384,500 in the graduated scale of draft prices paid to each club losing a man.

Lane's committee and Los Angeles, through its St. Paul farm club. put in their draft pro- posal-s in an effort to cut on mammoth bonuses promising young players.

The Dodger plan. which is drawing support of a number of minor lo a g u e 5, would expose players not on big league rosters to the draft after their first ses- sion. llf not tagged then, they would have to wait out the pres- ent flour-year period.

Hockey School Holds Classes

Two interesting and instruc- tive sessions were held at The (liniot'betown yesterday in the first full day of this year’s hoc- key sclhool, in which Red Storey. refereedn—chief of the NHL was chief instructor and Johnny 'Snag’ Squarebriggs assisted.

A member of the Leaf organi. zation had been expected to ar- rive yesterday to assist Mr. Storey with his instructional du- ties but it was learned at the last minute that there wasn’t anyone coming down. Johnny Sduarebriiggs was then called upon to give assistance in this year’s school. ’

In the afternoon session Square- brig-gs’ gave a lecture on coach- ing duties. He also spoke on off- ensive, defensive and power v)l-ays. Following this there was a investion period in which the members attending the class sought advice and asked various questions from the instructors.

Red Storey was in charge of last evening’s class. A review if the CAHA rule book was made

the different rules and when they should be applied. Again he an- swered all queries ’which were made by the class members.
