li.ll.i. Referees To Crack llcwn 0n Rough-house Tactics

MONTREAL, Nov. l4 —- (C?) -- Prom here on, National Hockey League referees will crack down more severely on rough-house tac- tics anti all the speech-making that has accompanied protests against decisions and penalties.

President Clrrewe Campbell in a directive issueo today to all ref- erees told them there must be a general tightening-up in interpre- tation of rules, particularly regard- ing charging. boarding and wrest- ling along the boards.

Furthermore. goalkeepers must keep the puck in play liistead 0i’ iinnecwsriiy holding or failing on it so there will be a stoppage of play and a face-off.

The rule permitting only the captain or alternate captain to dis- cuss decisions with the referee will be more strictly enforced and a less tolerant view will be taken on

decisions and penaitles.

NOTICE

The adjourned annual mael- ing of the Charlottetown Driv- ing Pork and Provincial Exhibi- tion Association will be lield in the Association's office on Tuesday morning, Nov. 26th at '0 o'clock.

They came to Britain by ship and air and from June till the end of October won 2'1 races rep- resenting total stakes of 239,421 ($157,684) and untold thousands of pounds for their betting owners.
