Sport Briefs From Britain

LONDON. Feb. is .-(CP) Field Marshal Viscount Montgom- ery started something when he temporarily iorsooic his military role to advocate OP?” Wmpelamon betwccn amateurs and profess- ionals at future Olympic (333195-

With Russia and her state- supportcd athletes admitted once again to Olympic competition, the sports-loving soldier suggested it. might be a good idea to stage the games henceforth with all barri- ers down. Open competition, be said, might also offer a solution of

the problem of so-called "Sha- mateurlsm."

The immediate reaction was prompt and definite.

Can.ad,ians'Defeat Czecks To Take Lead In Hockey

By Jack Sullivan '

OSDO, Feb. 19 -(CF)-Canada won its fourth straight game in the Olympic round-robin hokcey championship tonight, defeating Czechoslovakia 4-1 in a rough and tumble battle before nearly 10,000 yelling Norwegian fans.

It was the toughest game the boys irom Edmonton have played so far in the series. The Czechs were as tough as they had been heralded.

Referees Ahlln of Sweden and Dwars of the Netherlands handed out 17 penalties, including a major to Gordie Robertson (or taking a couple of mild swings at a Czech player.

Billy Gibson, Canada's shllt centre, scored two goals and Bruce Dickson and Robertson one each.

The victory sent the undefeated Canadians to the top oi! the nim- country standing because of their goals-for-and-against record.

concerned would retain amateur standing although within 24 hours of winning the championship he might join the jroiessional ranks and richly capitalize his prowess.

Sir Adolphe said the argument that infringement of rules and

mittec.

He saw no objection to amat- eurs and professionals competing together, provided it was recog- nized that the latter got their live- lihood out of the sport. while for the amateur it was strictly a re- creation from his normal job. The Olympic Games had been built to their present position on that un- derstanding and it we: well to leave things that way.

when the Russians had affili- ated with the I.A.A.F., Lord Bur- rghiey said they had agreed to a- bide by the Federation's rules banning award of money prizes to amateurs. He had no reason to guEIpeCli that they were not hon- oring that pledge.

"Io say that because a handful cheat under the rules it is, there- fore, necessary to alter them is surely like saying that because there are burglars, stealing should be made legal," Lord Eurghlcy said.

-Amateur Definition-

But Sir Adolphe Abrahams. medical officer to British Olym- pic teams since i912. though the powers that he hadn't gone for enough in their definition of an amateur.

interpretations contributing to current differences of opinion, he suggested, were based partly on tradition, vi-cjudicc and on re- fuse! to accept changes that have occurred in the attitude of society towards sport. it was not enough. he submitted, to any that an a- mateur must participate solely for pleasure and without material gain of any kind, direct or in- direct.

"This sort of elementary dil- ferentiation may have been all very well in the day when the amateur really indulged in sport. for its purely recreational advant- ages and when the difference be- tween amateur and professional was well defined by quality of performance." Sir Adolphe taid ”But the elements of achievement have completely eliminated this difilercntialion and it seems fool- ish and hypocritical to endeavor to retain the original interpreta- tion when the spirit has so large- ly disappeared."

Nowadays, an amateur aspiring to supreme athletic distinction was compelled to display as much application as any professional.

What, he asked, was to be said of 5 young man's status who as I would-he Olympic champion was able to subordinate all else to phnical fitness. and employed

services or professional coaches and trainers? Nobody

would criticise his ouhsctptlon to the Olympic oath.

And what about the tennis player whose well-heeled parents expended thouunda of dollars developing their offspring into on Wthblodon title-holder. The plrty

regulations applied, only to 3 small minority, was not to the paint. "it is precisely with this small minority that the essential prin- cipal is concerned," He added.

The United states matched Canada's undefeated four-game strins by deleatinx Switzerland 8-2. It was Switzerland's first loss In four games.

Sweden, also is four-name win- ner. had a bye tonight. The Canadians opened up

against the Czechs with hefty body-checking. It slowed down the ruzged Czechs and it also brought boos irom the spectators.

Nine of the penalties went to Canada and eight to Czechoslo- vakia. Practically everything in the book was called-hooking. slashing, holding, interference. tripping and Robertson's over-ex- uberance at shadow boxing,

There was also a protest by the Canadians over 9. disallowed goal 11'. the first period. The Edmonton boys claimed that a long shot by Jack Davies went over the goal line. The squawk got nowhere. But the Canadians said after the game that one referee admitted the puck -went in all right but he wouldn't overrule the goal judge.

The game was by .!ar the best of the tournament. The Norwegian inns started streaming into the big Jordal Ami! Stadium more than an hour before game time.
