Here's The Idea The C.A.H.A. (and its United States counterpart) would stay "amateur" if possible. status, they would be recognized as minor professional groups. Andy suggests that the C.H.A. (he resolutely refuses to recognize the "Amateur" in the Association's title) is at the crossroads. "It has played with the profes- sionals by agreement while mas- querading in amateur clothing, but it hasn't fooled anybody in com- mand, except, possibly, Federal and Provincial governments," he says. The prospect of losing the N.H.L.s annual $30,000 grant adds to the amateur officials' dilemma, adds Andy, who views the Camp- bell proposal as asking the Asso- ciation "to turn its amateur group suitably, instead of unsuitably, honest." Andy thinks it could be done if the professionals give adequate assurance of player protection, and if enough senior leagues can be persuaded to accept such pro- tection in exchange for loss of club and player independence. Silver Lining Doug (Windsor Star) Vaughan, who clucked sympathetically from across the river while Toronto Maple - Leafs murdered the Red Wings in the Stanley Cup finals, | offers a word of good cheer to the few hockey faithful who haven't crawled into their holes yet.

Vancouver Canucks last night {| cake-walked through San Diego Skyhawks 7-3 to win the Pacific ! Coast Hockey League champion- | ships. Canucks, 4-1 victors of the | best-of-seven series, and the Sky- hawks were both third-place teams in season play in their respective nother and southern divisions. ; Vancouver's flashy centre Ber- nie Bathgate topped the scoring { with two goals and one assist while defenceman Chuck Millman tallied twice. Stan Darecki, Fred Gibbon and Bernie McCarthy scored. one apiece for Hawks. ! The listless first period saw only | two goals scored, the first by Can- | .uck Percy Nicols and the second { by Skyhawk centre Bernie Mc- | Carthy. Vancouver came out fast in the second session and flashed three oals. At the 13-minute mark, arecki got one back for the Sky- hawks. | _ Canucks drove two more past | Larry Frechette to end the period with a 6-2 edge. Two markers were added in the final session. Bernie Bathgate scored at 7:31 and at 14:18 south- erner Fred Gibbon of San Diego ended the scoring. Szech Coach Is Back In Canada -Didn't Get Paid Regina, April 17--(CP)--Mike Buckna, looking as fit as he did vhen he sét up goals for Trail, B.C. Smoke Eaters, today is en route to the home town he left to coach Czechoslovak hockey teams. 'The 34-year-old coach of the runner-up Czéch mpic team paused here last night just long enough to say there wasn't too ||| much wrong with the much-criti- »d Olympic refereeing. The Olympics were poorly or- || \ ganized," he said. "Playing con- itions were bad, but the referee- ing as the same for both clubs. || They just interpret the rules differ- ||| ently over there." He was a bit surprised at the Olympic victory of Canada's R.C. AF. Flyers, Buckna admitted. "I saw them in early games and really thought we could take them," he said. ! Canada and Czechoslovakia played to a scoreless tie in their one tournament game Canada win- ning the title with a higher scoring average. i He shied away from discussing controversial Czech politics and spd only: "I could tell you things that would make your hair stand on end."

April 17-- --There must be something sadistic about golf galleries. . . Not only do they delight in watching the loag hitters belador a defenceless little white. pellet, but nothing seems to delight the fans more than seeing one of the "name" stars get into trougle and out of it . . . The select 15 golfers who started yesterday in the Cavalier Club's "Specialists" . | Tournament provided plenty of en- tertainment for comparatively few spectators in both respects. . . The committee sent out the three play- ers chosen for their long-driving power -- Jimmy Thompson, Chick Harbert and Lawson Little--in one threesome. . .And within a few minutes this observer saw Bobby Locke drive one out of bounds and then have to chip out a deep gully beside a green; Lew Worsham get into the same gully and Harbert put on a wood-chopping act after he had slammed a drive in among some pine trees. Locke, who got into trouble once about cleaning his ball on the green isn't going to let it happen again. . . On the first hole yesterday Bobby noticed scmg mud on his ball and called for an officia! ruling, al- though spectators told him that other players already had wiped off similar splotches. .

Lew walked up and looked at the ball, then remarked to no- body in particular: "Yep. Always under-eliisbing. Sports Shorts From Britain By MICHAEL O'MARA London, April 16--(CP)--Mary Lynch, 20-year-old mbdiste, loved horses ever since she was a child. She gave up her job to work at Pulestone Farm racing stable in Shropshire. Two hours after she started work she was fourd lying in a road, apparently trampled by one of the animals she loved. She died in hospital. A neighbor who had watched Mary grow up sent to her funeral a wreath--in the shape of a horse- shoe, Who was the greatest rugger player of all time? W. J. Townsend Collins, veteran writer on the game, summed the question up in his recent book, "Rubgy Recollections," and decided the laurel went to the late Arthur Gould. * Gould, nicknamed "the incom- parable," was in first-class rugger from 1882 to 1898 playing for New- port and Wales and later for Rich- mond and Middlesex, in their greatest years. Admirers on five continents con- tributed £1,000 (then about $5,000) to endow a bed in Newport hospital as a memorial to the star. On the- living-room door of 16- year-old Christine. Wheeler's home in London is a mark five feet, six inches above the floor, topped by the slogan, "It's Easy." Every day when she comes home from school, Christine, British junior high-jump champion at four feet, 11, inches, looks at the mark and tells herself; "I'll jump it someday." . She set the junior mark using the scissors jump and hopes that F. | when she masters the western roll, under the instruction of coach A. A. Gold, shell be able to top the British women's record of five feet, 5% inches. Gold is a great believer in the "ambition mark' on the door. "It gets the jumper used to the idea of the height aimed at," he ex- plained, "and that gives confidence. Given technique, strength and training, jumping becomes a mat- ter of confidence." Remember Ted Fenton, the master-minding playing manager who led his semi-pro Colchester United Club into the sixth round of the Football Association Cup earlier this season? Supporters said he accomplished the feat by a series of "master plans," by which he foiled the professional opposition. . Ted now is working on a new master plan which he'll try out against Arsenal--regarded as a certainly to win the League cham- pionship--in an exhibition game at Highbury April 27. If Colches- ter can put up a good show in this match it will greatly stréngth- en the team's hand in bidding for inclusion in the League's Third Division next season.

Crow, 22, is the first weight lifter New Zealand has sent to the Olympics. He will compete in the new 123-pound class in which his performances are close to world record. In a recent test he record- ed 600% pounds in the three Oly- mpic lifts, which would have gain- ed him fourth pee at the last world championship in his weight. T. R. Carter, 22-year-old road cyclist, has won almost every road cycling event in New Zealand this season and is considered the best performer produced in the Domin- ion for many years. He will com- pete in the 200-kilometer event at the Games and his chances are thought brighter because under the new regulations, team tactics will count for less than in the past. Youngest member of the team, R. Goslin, 20, has held the New Zealand bantam, - weight boxing title for the last two years. A tear-away, two-fisted fighter, he has won most of his fights by knockouts and is given a good chance of success by Ted Morgan, who won the Olympic welter= weight event in 1928. The only woman competitor is Ngaire Lane, thought to be the best woman swimmer New Zealand has sent overseas. She will com- pete in the 100 metres backstroke event, in which she is in a class of her own in Australia and New Zealand.
