Canadian Rugby UnionfGives ‘Okay To Changes In Rules
\ .
TO.RON'l‘O . (CP) -— The rules committee of the Canadian Rugby Union at a meeting here Sunday decided to allow the east- ern Senior Intercollegiate Foot- ball League to go ahead with its proposal tolint-roduce unlimited blockling for linemen.
Theirule-change is an experi- ment. If it works satisfactorily, it may be adopted by the profes- sional football leagues.
:I3:The existing rule allows ‘line- men to block only 10 yards ahead of the l_ine.of scrimmage.
"The recommendation must be approved by the CRU’s annual rfieeting next month but such ap- proval usually is a formality. -",’.I.‘-he 10-yard limit was replaced with’ a rule allowing blockers to o‘perat.e up to the third yard- sl;ri~pe beyond the line of scrim- mage‘. This means the blockers din got up to 14 yards ahead of the line of scrimmage on running plays. ~ ,
The rule will apply only to
properly marked fields. The 10- yard limit will remain in effect on ‘fields not marked. p
The rule regarding backfielders blocking in front of the line of scrimmage also was altered. Two “privileged” backfielders, sta- tioned outside eadhpend, will be allowed to block up to the third stripe ahead of the scrimmage line. Previously they could block only 10 yards ahead of the line.
In the case of a double~flanker being stationed outside one end»- a popular style of attack in pro football——only the back closest to his own line at that end will be permitted to do the extended bloching. If there is aflanker at the other end, he also will be al- lowed to block.
Contactwith an opposing player will ha-lt play, when any part of a ball-carrier's bOdy~"exce.pt his hands and feet touches the ground, the committee said. For- merly the rule required the ball- carrier to be tackled.

Bands, Pcirade, Excitement . Mark Opening Of HS Curling
By DUCK ACORN
The curlers parade on Monday attracted thousands of citizens who lined the rout of march to view the participants in the Cana- dian School Curling’ Champion- ships. The Black Watch Pipers Band headed the parade and were followed by the officials of the play downs and the represen- tatives of the Pepsi Cola Co. Then came the hosts cars follow- ed by the teams. The Burkes Lads and Lassies Pipe Band sup- plied the skirl of the pipes for the local Ladies Club members and the Menu Club.
Next came the R. E. C. C. E. Band followed by the senior pup- ils of Queen Square School. Queen Charlotte High and the P. W.
College students. A thousand
strong kept step to the stirring music on their march to the Sports Arena where the first Do- minion Championships ever to be

The crew cut youngsters of the roaring game have won the hearts of the citizens in general and as they passed, the great crowd lin- ing the route of march gave vent to their feelings and the cheers and handclapping could be heard for blocks. -
OPENING DRAW
A large crowd was on hand at the Arena for the opening draw and Lt. Governor T. W. L. Prdwse delivered the first stone with the Hon A. W. Matheson Premier of the, Province holding the broom that officially opened the play for the Canadian School Curling Championships. The ice for the games was a shade slow at the start" but as the ends progressed it was getting keener.
At the practice sessions on Monday morning ~ the Manitoba team caught the eye of the spec- tators and Pete MacLeod the skip time after time came in for a per- fect draw to win the end. In the opening game Pete lost his magic and his draw was heavy or short. Alberta who played Manitoba were 1.00 per cent for their win and are being mooted as one of the top games to watch. New Brunswick pulled an upset by handling the B. C. team with ap- parent ease., B. ‘C. winning but two ends. ' '
NEW COMERS
Newfoundland who are making their first appearance in the classic gave a good account of themselves against. the strong Quebec foursome and were on the short end of a 13-5 score.
The top game of the afternoon draw was the game between N. Ontario ’ and Saskatchewan and it held the interest of the specta- tors right up to the last rock. Northern Ontario slipped into the lead by winning the first three ends to go in front 5-0 Saskatche- wan roared right back. with a. big four on the 4th end and made it four straight ends in a row a com- manding fead at that point in the game of 9’ to 5 N. Ont. picked up a one on the 8th and 9th to make the score read 9-7 for Saskatche- wan. The tenth end was the big one_‘one and Saskatchewan kept picking off the first three rocks that Tom Tod called for in trying to build a front to get a start to consolidate a two end at least to force the game into an extra end. WAS LIGHT
It was at this point that Saska- tchewanmade their first miss and N. Ont. pulled into the house with the number two rock. When Tom Tod went down to throw last rock N. Ont. had one at eleven o'clock just breaking the four circle with number two at five o’clock biting the back sixfoot circle with a number two at five o’clock biting the back six- foot circle.

/ P.E.I. WINS ‘
In the BC. '- P.E.I. game the ‘Is- landers won the first end. with B.C. coming back with a one to tie it up. P.E.I. picked up another single in the‘ third. ‘Then they blanked the fourth end.
B.C. picked up a big two oh, the sixth end. The Island team at this stage were not as sharp as we have seen them. The Islanders. however, came back with a big 3 in the seventh end,and a two in the ninth end wrapped it up for Prince Edward Island’s first win in the series. ‘ .
The big crowdon hand really‘ enjoyed the night's‘ curling and showed their approval by cheer- ing every shot in the B.C. - P.E.I. -match. ‘*-
BIG ENDS
Manitoba and Ontario, at the end of the seventh end, were tied 10-10. In the fifth end Manitoba had come roaring right back with a big 5-ender to-lead 10-5 and the crowd was expecting a shoo-in for Manitoba. Then the Ontario skip pulled off the “sensation shot” of the series so far by executing a very difficult double takeout“ to get back into the running with a big fiveender in the seventh.
The Manitoba skip ,came up with a perfect draw to take the lead again" in the eighth 11-10. When they came down to skips’ rocks in the ninth end Manitoba was lying one and two. Then Stib- bard took out Manitoba’s No. 8 MacLeod of Manitoba had. to freeze to the umber- one rock of Ontario and h pushed it back about a foot to end up‘ number one. ' ‘
Stibbard was narrow leaving and just brushed 'the,shot’ rock. giving Manitoba‘ a two lead com- ing/home. 1
SWAPPING
When the leads had finished in the tenth, Ontario had the advan- tage of one rock. The swapping started. Manitoba missed a big double take-out and Ontario has a big three-ender when the skips come to the hack. ,
The crowd were pulling for On- tario and cheering them on all the way. MacLeod slipped past the shot rock and Ontario were just one shot away from victory.
MacLeod attempted to freeze to the shot rock as Ontario had four in the house. The crowdywas on edge awaiting the rock to reach the house. He made a perfect freeze and the crowd gave him a big band.
This was the only match in progress at the time and everyone is watching this ‘ exciting game. Stibbard has to make a pinch out. He made the shot of the series and the crowd really—went wild. Final score 13-12. . *

Amherst Ramblers‘: Maritime Senior Titl
The Amherst Ramblers won the Maritime Senior Hockey.
League title at Civic Stadium last night, beating the Summer- side Aces 4-2 in overtime in what was easily the best and most exciting game of hockey seen in Sumrmerside this sua- son. The score was 2-2 at he end of regulation play and Am- herst fired two unanswered tal- lies in the ten-minute overtime session to win the series five games to one.
The first was periods were scoreless with the teams" split- ting four. goals in the final frame. Both goalers. Mann and
teeves, were \ particularly sharp, Mann getting 32 shots and Steeves 38_ with a high per- cenbage‘ of spectacula-r saves for both custodians. '
Ulric Gallant was ban.-ishead at 2.49 in the first period for cross checking and Mann had to be‘ good to hold the fort. At the 9 minute mark Vance Har- ris was in for the kill but his shot sruck the crossbar, and danced crazily off Steeves’ Harris -and Douglas swapped punches four minutes before the end of the frame and were given majors. Ron Gaudet, went off for‘ tnip-ping 45 seconds later. The Amherst teani fought a fine delaying action and the Aces never came close.
The Aces hermned the visitors in their zone for almost a minute in the early part of the second session and Steeves was kept busy. Then the tide changed and it was Mann's turn to keep the Ramblers off the score sheet. Gaudet and Boss looked dan- gerous _on a two-man rush against a lone defenceman . but
