N.H.l. Moves To Stop Banging Sticks On Bench

MONTREAL. May 30 - (CP)- The National Hockey League gov- ernors moved today to put a stop to hanging of sucks on the board: by players.

The usual offenders are players seated on the bench who break out with a clatter and hanging of sticks in protest against a referee's decision or in jubilation over I goal or save.

Hereafter the stick-banger will get an automatic 10-minute mis- conduct penalty. 1! the referee can't determine the culprit he will order the team's coach to name I man to sit out a two-minute minor penalty.

The governor: felt the practice has gone beyond all reason.

Suggestions to change the dc- iayed-penalty rule so that no fewer than five players to a team will be on the ice at any time were rejected. The present minimum is four.

The Pacific Coast Hockey Lea- gue has already decided to estab- lish the five-man minimum. The N. H. L. moguls decided they will wait and see how the change works out in the P. C. H. L.

The question of a general agree- ment among all professional lea- gues to make 18, instead of 16 as at present. the minimum age-for signing youngsters to any form of contract or agreement was left un- settled. The N. H. L. itself is in favor of the change and further deliberations with other leagues will be carried out.

The governors, in their 33rd annual meeting. gave formal ap- proval to continuing the 79-game schedule, increased last season from 60. The season will open Oct. 11 although the full schedule has not yet been approved.

The All-Star game will be play- ed in Detroit Oct. '7, and Lynn Patrick. who recently resigned as coach of New York Rangers. will be invited to handle the All-Star squad in the annual match against the Stanley Cup winners-Detroit Red Wings this time.

Patrick left the Rangers so he could become associated with his father, Lester Patrick, in Victoria, B. C., and coach the Victoria Cou- gars of the Pacific Coast League.

opener. the Cardinals rallied for six runs in that same inning to take the nightcap. Nanny Fernan- zlez hit two homers for Pittsburgh in the opener.

During the murse of yesterday's column a number of sporting activ- ities scheduled for the forthcoming

summer were mentioned as pro- gressing well towards the develop- ment of their activities for the season. There are a. number of other sports not mentioned. how- ever, that are taking up their rightful place in the sporting pict- ure as part of the large scale sporting progi'a;.'n that will be in progress here throughout the sum- mer. 0 O 0 Although not a, sport that is so widely known for its spectator ap- peal. rifle shooting here is a high- ly popular pastime for" many throughout the Province. The Provincial Rifle Association, a highly active body for many years, governs, the main bulk of this act- ivity and has already mapped out its program for the various com- petitions this year. . . . The big project at the moment, , is the selecting of the Prince Ed- ward Island team that will rep- resent the Province at the Inter- Maritime Rifle Match to be held at Dr.-bcrt, N. S. on June 17th. The Island team will be the de- fending champion-3 at that meet. having defended their title success- fully herc over the Squaw Point -Range at Tea l-till last summer to make ii. the third straight year they haw won the coveted trophy. emblematic or marksmanship sup- remacy in the Maritimes. O O O

The P.R.A. will hold their qualifying shoots on June 3rd.. 7th., and 10th to determine the 12 best shots to move into the final

,sc-lection shoot which will be held ton June 14th. The result of this llinal shootoff will determine the best eight marksman who will compete as a beam at the Inter- ,Marii-ime Match as the represent- lativc team for the Province. In the first three qualifying shoots. the 12 highest shots of any two ad the three matches will ho elig- ible to advance in to In fhal round on June. I

It. is understood that manyplocal marksman have already be-enhout practicing over the Squaw Point range in preparation for the forth- coming qualifying rounds and in anticipation of garnering an hon- ored position on the island team. P. R. A.. officials have announced that the range will be open daily for practice shoots in the after- noon, until further notice.

Drillon Named Moncton Coach For Next Season

MONCTON. N. B.. May 30 - (CP) -- George Bell, manager of the Moncton Hawks of the Mari- time Senior Hockey League, to- night announced appointment of Gordon Drillon as coach of the team for next season.

A moncton native. Drillon star- red with Toronto Maple Leafs of the N. H. L. for six seasons, and one with Montreal Canadiens be- fore retiring from professional hockey.

In a comeback as a player last season Drillon played with Saint John Beavers of the M. S. H. 1... He scored 48 goals and 24 assists for 72 points.

Drillon's return to Moncton in a coaching role was part of a re- organization of the club which held the Moncton franchise in the M. S. H. L. Several weeks ago control of the club was transfer- red from a five-man group head- ed by H. R. Brown as president in G. D. (Monty) Montgomery, who managed the club last season, and George Bell. former right- winger with the Hawks.

Drillon declined tonight to dis- cuss plans for next season. The 38-year-old right winger said he would probably devote all his time to his new job and leave the playing to players he hoped to line-up between now and fall.

All members of last year's team are under a Maritime Amateur Hockey Association suspension which will be dealt with at. a meeting of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association at Banff. Alta., next month.

Drillon said it was possible some of last season's players would we- turn to the club but no decision could be reached until the C. A. H. A. rules on the suspensions.

ed, we are not certain of the start- ing date as yet: for the daylight racing, but if it follows the usual trend as in the past, the Dominion Day meet at Summerslde will no doubt be the opening feature of that section of the racing season. According to reports, officials of tracks all over the Province are at present busily engaged in putting their plans in first class shape and carrying out all the little improve- ments and repairs tint go with setting things in shape for their summer opening. 0 l I

owners and drivers are working their trotters and pacer; out daily over the Exhibition track as part of their extensive training program to condition their horses for the fast, ruined duels they will be in- volved in during the course of the season. It is in much improved track they are working over too. The Provincial Exhibition Association has made many improvainents than this spring in the way of widening the track, putting up new stables. etc. to better facil- ities there in every way possible and make the 1060 hone racing season one to be remembered.

Johnny Parsons Wins " Race As Deluge Ends Event At 345-Mile Mark

By Charles Dimkley

INDIANAPOLIS. May 30-(AP) -A deluge that lasted no longer than 60 seconds today ended the scheduled 500-mile automobile race at 345 miles with Johnny Parsons, Van Nuys, Callf.. a record break- ing winner. '

The handsome 91-year-old Par- sons, 1949 racing champion of the American Automobile Association, led most of the way despite gal- lant bids by Mauri Rose, South Bend, 1nd.. Lt previous triple win- ner of the Memorial Day race, and Bill Holland of Reading. Pa., 1949 winner.

Parsons established a record speed average of 124.002 miles an hour for the 345 miles.

Records were strewn in Par- son' wake from the 50-mile mark on to the sudden finish. At 50 miles he averaged 124.941, and at the 100-mile mark he was speed- ing at 124.997 to blot out Wilbur Shaw's performance of 128.441 in 1999.

He eclipsed Shaw's record at 150 miles, for which Parsons' average speed was 125.579. At 200 miles Parsons was hitting 126.319, which also erased Shaw's record of 123.- 381 made in his 1939 triumph, The rain storm that broke suddenly from one black cloud ended the race in confusion.

Chester Ricker. chief timer for the A, A. A., announced that of- ficial placlngs and times of all finishing cars could not be fkured out until midnight tonight.

The unofficial final order of finish placed Tony Battenhausen, Tlnley Park, 111.. in second place. with Holland third--his lowest
