HOT POTATO Homeless Hockey Players' Problem Goes To. NHL-CAHA . R. WHEATL Ca Press Staff Weiter NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP)-- The problem of the player who \ dn't 2 hockey home was dis- cussed Chursday by the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association be- fore it adjourned its 36th annual meeting The convention worried over these stuations: (1( players who are umler contract to profes- sional eams; (2) players who have sined only CAHA forms. The woblems concern the Mar- itime Major League, still a mem- ber of the parent body, and the Quebec Senior League, which has just .dedded to turn professional. * The wole thing was tossed over like a Int potato to the joint com- mittee of the National Hockey League and the CAHA for settle- ment. The fnal open meeting of the CAHA aso made these decisions: [ec British Columbia may re-enter the junior A series and Alberta cannot draw on its teams for three-man strengthening of its contenders in the national junior series. The matter of televising games was handed over to the parent body's branches for decision them- selves. The meeting went on rec- ord with a suggestion that the CBC should put the national final game on the radio. The question of the homeless player arose over the suspension ast winter of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association. The branch and its clubs were reinstated at the current meeting. The branch apologizing for having defied the Status of a junior player, Ron At- well. Before it closed its deliberations, the plenary meeting through pres- ident W. B. George: of Kemptville, Ont., administered a verbal spank- ing to Frank Selke, managing dir- r of the Montreal Forum and ja J professional and amateur piving that Selke had a hand in the Attwell case, George said Selke hasn't been able to mani ulate the CAHA to his liking, a statement to The Canadian Press last week in Montreal, Selke said he had never opposed any govern- body in hockey and, in a aes DY to the Attwell case, won't recognize any special legis- lation aimed at disqualification of a certain nlayer." The financial statement of sec- retary-manager George Dudley of Midland, Ont., showed that the senior series--for the Allan Cup-- netted more than $71,000 Pat season. Each club benefitted by $325 for each game it played. The junior series--for the Memorial Cup-- netted more than $62,000 and the team participation was $425 for each gam In accordance with established practice, officers were re-elected for a second one-year term.

No former champion ever won back the crown in the history of the prize ring. Now, a 39-year-old pappy guy with six kids back home in Camden, N.J., is trying to rewrite the script against a 28- year-old slugger who knocked him out last Septebmer. Jim Corbett couldn't do it. Nei- ther could Bob Fitzsimmons, Jim Jeffries," Jack Dempsey, Max Schmeling, Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles. Most boxing experts think Walcott can't do it either. The pick here is Marciano by a knockout inside nine rounds and possibly quicker. Few think it will go the distance. There has been little betting. Despite their sensational fight at Philadelphia last fall, the public is tion since Sept. 23 when Marciano knocked Walcott loose from the title with a right to the jaw at 43 seconds of the 13th round. Marci- ano was down for a four count from a left hook in the first round. It was the only time he was on the deck in 43 pro fights. Marciano, LL Le record heavyweight ever e crown, is unbeaten in 43 fights, winning 38 by knockouts. Jersey Joe has had 66 fights since he started in 1930. The re- markable old codger's life record is 49-16-1 with 30 knockouts among the 49 victories and five knockout defeats. This is his eighth title bout Despite his long--and often un- spectacular--career, Walcott has a chance to win it all. A master boxer with a deceptive three-step retreat, Walcott is the type to con- fuse a crouching slugger like the Rock who has to make up for his short arms with a constant pres- sure attack. Because of Marciano's tender nose, Walcott is ted to come out jabbing with stiff taking this rematch in stride. The |1qp; box office take was only $385,000 Thursday morning. It Joico like $450,000 and about 15,000 persons would be a good guess on the final totals. The all-time record for an in- door fight is $422,918 for Tony Zale- Rocky Graziano at this same sta- dium, July 16, 1947. The 15-round match scheduled for 10:00 p.m. EDT will be carried on a television network (NBC) with the Chicago-Milwaukee area blacked out. The fight also will be carried on radio (ABC) to all parts of the country. Three dimension movies will be taken. Walcott and his manager, Felix Bocchicchio, have $250,000 guar- antee plus 30 per cent of any movie money. Marciano is fighting for 30 per cent of "'everything"--gate, TV and movies. From the looks of SR he'll probably draw about Neither fighter has been in ac- Tale of the Tape For Title Fight CHICAGO (AP)--Tale of the tape for Rocky Marciano-Jersey Joe CO Yielr 1 round eavyweig! e matc! night at Chicago Stadium. : Marciano Walcott Mar Walcott 39 8 74" 196 40" 43" 0 Age Height Reach Weight Chest (normal) Chest (Exp.)

First, the Oshawa Transport- ers' representative at that meeting, Ab Walker, never did present a certificate signed by "'Bunny" Legree. Bun has never been around at one practice of the Trans- porters, nor is he expected. Quite obviously the player the writer had in mind was Cec Hall. And as one can guess from the misinfcrmation on this important facet of the meeting . . . quite a few of the other "facts" reported from Cobourg, were also handled a little loosely. As we said before in this spot, there was no question of the Oshawa club pulling up gtakes. There was some sug- gestion that Mr. Walker might quit the league executive, but certainly his leaving the execu- tive cf the league, doesn't mean the team would fold . too much money has been spent thus far for that. As to this business of Oshawa "raiding Whitby and Bowman- ville teams" it might be men- tioned that all players "raided" are Oshawa resi- dents, who, if the teams mentioned go Intermediate B, would not be permitted to play for sald teams because of the rules in that category. They are just coming home to play now that Oshawa has a team in the league. Pitcher Cec Hall stands right in the middle cf this con- troversy and could conceivably sit out the season. It is quite a squabble and we imagine it won't be settled until some of the persons concerned start thinking of the players and their rights as individuals. Getting back to the Trans- porters, we hear that Jack Dell, field manager of the team last year, has taken up that post again this season. He and Trainer Stan Way- lett made up the "no publicity working duo' of the club last seascn and it looks as if they'll have the task this season.

We wouldn't be surprised to hear that that company's team in the Indus- trial League plays some of their games on it . . . and shortly. Ted O'Connor's team of this past hockey season, the Tac- oma Rockets of the WHL, have folded because of lack of funds. This Boston chain member leaving the WHL means that only one US team remains in the league. It is supposed that Regina will take up the slack left by Tacoma. Now the question is, will Boston move its affiliation to Regina, and will that be where the Bruin chattels head next fall? Of course, we've heard rumors that Ted might just stick around Oshawa next winter to trade his hockey wares.

Murphy and Judge . . . those we really enjoyed. They had shots of the Central football games last fall, shots of the Commencement and of the Capers.

We were sorry to hear of Marg Pelow's sickness, but happy to hear her irited voice speaking through the letter read to the banquet. What a hand that reading brought!

Mec- | ty THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, May 15, 1953 44 Attorney-General's Alberta Farm Rising As Breeding Establishment EDMONTON (CP)--On a slight knoll on Edmonton's northeastern outskirts lies Murray Hill Farm which is developing into one of the leading horse-breeding establish- ments in Western Canada. Atiarney«Guneral Lucien May- nard of Alberta, owner of the farm, is gradually introducing all the con- ditions which make it ideal to raise the animals. For instance, many leading prairie horsemen believe that early foals are practically of no account. The basis for this belief is that baby colts and fillies bern before spring warm-up are denied ad- nes e exercise, sunlight and green grass because of the severe prairie winters BUILDS FINE BAR But Maynard, ARN Seiievis that foals born as early as possible in the year grow bigger and stronger, Jigures he has all the disadvantages eaten. The barns are built so there is a paddock for the mare and her colt to frolic until they can get out to pasture. Windows provide sunlight. Special gimmicks ensure ventilation. Instead of green grass, e foals are fed a special formula to supply the necessary vitamins. The 55-acre farm also has other innovations. One is a special oat- bin attached to a board which swivels out of the stall. Feed can be given an animal without going into the stall. This makes for speed and also avoids the possi- bility of struggling with cantanker- ous animals. To provide water, a pipe runs the full length of the main barn and hoses at each stall enable attend- ants to fill a horse's water-con- tainer merely by moving the hose. A communications system links the Maynard home, the homes of the four married couples on the farm staff, and the various barns to the foaling stable. When a foal is about to be born a buzzer rouses everyone, "Without this inter-com, we would have lost three mares and their foals this year," Maynard said. HAS TWO STUDS The farm has a three-eighths-of- a-mile track, two studs and 13 brood mares. So far this year there have been 10 foals and one to come. The farm has seven year- lings, five of them fillies, The Maynard racing string is at Calgary preparing for the sum- mer campaign. The stable, trained by Bob Deans of Vancouver, con- sists of six two-year-olds, a pair of three-year-olds anl 19-year-old Texas Son. The juveniles are Mr. Speaker, Silent Hour and Mon Premier, all colts, and Killadream, Contented and Wee Miss Boo, three fillies. Th three-year-olds are Gala Easter and Miss Merrynose. The studs at the farm are Gala Hour, a son of Sir Galahad III, and Sudani. The latter is owned by an Edmonton syndicate. '"'Now we're ready for a beautifi- cation program," Maynard told a group of newspaper men who visi- ted his farm. "So far we've put in a few windbreaks and we have lots else in mind.' Pete Timbermen Whip Mounties 23-1 PETERBOROUGH (CP)--Peter- borough Petes trampled Mimico Mountaineers 23-1 Thursday night to start their Ontario Lacrosse Association Senior A series. They outscored the Mounties 5-0, 6-0, 6-1 and 6-0 by quarters in a clean tussle. It was marred only by a slashing episode 'by Curly Mason of Petes and Joe Nolan in the last quarter, the lat- ter getting a match penalty and Mason a minor. Top sniper for the winners was Harry Wipper with five goals. Curly Mason, Jerry Fitzgerald and Ike Hildebrand counted three each, A pair apiece went to Don Ash- bee, Lou Nickle and Ross Powless. Roger Smith and Nip O'Hearn each scored once. The Mounties' counter was by Don Meek. While Sweden has remained out of all wars for about 140 years, she has a long military tradition.
