A far-flung organization has grown up to develop talent and keep the national team re- plenished. And there's evi- @ence that Moscow no longer dominates teen-age hockey. The U.S.S.R. appears to have gone slightly hockey mad. And when the enthusi- asm is added to the fact that this country has more than 11 times the population of Can- ada, it's obvious the talent pool is almost bottomless. Even more important, there is no equivalent of the Na- tional Hockey League and other professional organiza- tions to draw off the top levels of the amateur graduates. The Soviet system is com- dlete with scouts, coaches and volunteer instructors who con- ftentrate on advancing minor hockey. An illustration of how far this movement has progressed was provided by the all-union junior championships in Ka- zan, 450 miles east of Moscow. WINNERS FROM STICKS About 250 teams took part. And they represented the best of thousands of other local clubs. For example, in the Tartar Republic, of which Ka- zan is the principal city, 1,000 teams participated in local playoffs. In the region around Gorky, an automobile city halfway between Moscow and Kazan, 750 teams operated this sea-. Bon. And where Moscow teams used to walk off with all the prizes, the big Kazan tourney this year was dominated by teams from far to the east. Boys from Kuibyshev, south of Kazan, won the title in the 17-18 age bracket; Chelyab- insk, in the Urals, took the 15-16 class, and Novosibirsk, nearly 1,000 miles east of the Urals, won the 13-14 category. After the national competi- tions were over, a junior team picked from the best young players in the country went abroad to play against minor teams from East Germany and Czechoslovakia.

International BEER Kelly, retired as an active player and was believed set for the Los Angeles coaching job until the Leafs suddenly moved the unprotected veteran to their fill-in list. There is nothing to prevent the Leafs from engineering a trade with Los Angeles and handing over Kelly, but there has been speculation the Leafs now may want plenty in return --maybe even goalie Terry Sawchuk, who was taken by Los Angeles at the outset of the draft. There is a possibility the dis- pute may not be resolved for some time. League president Campbell has said he-knows of no agreement about Kelly 'and, what's more, would not' have been a partner to it. In a deal concluded Wednes- day, Minnesota North Stars purchased from Montreal Cana- diens for. an unstated amount two players in Canadiens' farm chain and the rights to two am- ateurs. The pros are Goalie Carl Wetzel, native of Detroit, and Bill Masterson, The amateurs are Steve Sutherland and Pierre Provost.
