from the area The residence rule continues in the book despite the fact that the majority of the ex ecutive wanted to wipe it out Wo have long since felt that it was a rule that was so antiquated it should be off the books unless the would really put some teeth into the interpretation George Dudley treasur er led the fight to retain the rule and despite his confreres in office the delegates voted over whelmingly to retain the old rule As a result if springtime promises mean anything the intends to really enforce the rule this year Imports will he actual bona fide imports and not roomers and m commuters It was suggested that clubs of fending will he suspended for a year If the really lives up to the letter of the law well and good Hut weakkneed hand ling as has been the case the past few

with their first The moot ed change in age for junior play ers from to was defeated Jack Christie of the OMHA led the fight for the change and veteran secretary Billy Hewitt was the opposition spokesman The vote was close for the old rule There were some other minor amendments but those were the main changes Coinciding with the conven tion the last OHA champion ship was decided on Saturday
