soundly trounced by markham in their home and home duel last week they may be assured of one thins they are bound to improve one must remember thai when the locals matched batting strength with markham they were facing the best in the league three other clubs in the group also suffered double setbacks and as far as the standing o the teams is concerned it doesnt matter whether you lose by one run or twentyone one thing is certain the players must outfit themselves with the proper equipment fielders without spikes might just as well chase a fly ball on roller skaes especially in the evening when the gra is damp who knows the shamrocks may rally with that fighting irish spirit and turn the tables on their opposition wkathkitman ivashks out holiday tolkxky a heavy downpour of rain on monday morning turned the local baseball diamond into a sea of mud and the stouffville red sox management found it necessary to cancel their may isth holiday tournament the spirits of the local squad were also thoroughly dampened due to the inclement weather as most fans realize the red sox operate throughout the season only on a shoe string and it was their plan that a wellorganized tournament might get them off to a good financial start now the team must depend solely on the support of the fans who attend their regular scheduled games on monday may 25th the red sox play host to sunderland to open the baseball season here keep stouft villes national sport thriving by offering your vocal and financial support to the club oh monday evening cvha to clamp down the canadian amateur hockey association introduced a number of proposals at its general meeting held at niagara falls last week some of them should be accepted while others would not be a benefit to the sport a move to silence any pro fane protests from players in the penalty box was introduced and such a resolution would certainly be a step in the right direction some players have little or no regard for the spec tators seated in the immediate area another move to curb the shorthanded club from icing the puck was introduced such a plan would certainly throw terrific pressure on the defending club but it might aid in cutting down the number of penalties in a game the motion to ban the slap shot from hockey was defeated such penalties as kneeing boarding tripping cross- cheeking and charging are to be strictly adhered to by the officials and major penalties will be handed out when warranted one delegate suggested that any player who shoots the puck at the goaltender after the play has been stopped should be given a misconduct penalty one of the many resolutions given approval was that of secretarymanager geo dudley which pro vided that the cai1a executive must follow the book when dealing with complaints over player replacements and other playoff questions jkitskv jok nkts jhitsoooo ix two mivutks did you see the light last friday night what light thats the question and usual answer thats been ringing in the air ever since murciuno and walcott staged their brief skirmish in chicago stadium before a crowd of lt000 fans those who saw the fight on tv will probably agree that the socalled knockout punch thrown by the champ didnt appear to have the force behind it to ko the challenger for the count on the screen it appeared that rocky hit his oppon ent with a right uppereiit and pushed him with his left but of course who are we to judge the power of marcianos right maybe jersey joe lost track of the count and if dazed this could easily be the case or perhaps he just decided to sit this one out for his brief squat on the canvas he picked up a cool 25u lion the action in the ring between the police and ringside late arrival proved about as interesting as the heavy- eight match itself from jersey joes sitting position on the ring llonr one would think in all fairness to boxing that he had been dazed by marcianos right if not he should have at least risen to his knees at the eight count as far as there being any protest lodged concerning a short count or unfair officiating it appeared perfectly legitimate on the tv screen as it did to the international boxing commission waleotts boxing career has come to an end but at the age of lit who shouldnt retire from professional spojt port perry drops from county league at on organization meeunj held n

that no club within the area bordered by lake on tario the niagara river lake erie and dunn sherbrooke moulton canboro saltfleet and barton townships and includ ing the city of hamilton be of lower classification than senior or junior b the proposal also would have forbidden either players resident within the area from playing outside or players res ident outside from playing within the area

poorer the proposal was defeated almost unanimously following a spirited discussion delegates passed an amend ment to the bylaws permitting a player who plays not more than three games on or before
