That letter part may be s. good idea all right but, and here a tough question arises; how can funds be obtained from an associ- ation that has been out of exist- ence the past number of years now? It would entail a lot of work for an alumni association to be revived and after all, as anyone will readily grant, students have a certain amount of studies to be looked after.

Irvin“ “Admits ” Canadians Best Team This Season

This is the second of a I" ‘iln Press series on pro-season pros-

pects oi the‘N.I-!.L. clubs. To- '

day's story covers Montreal Canad-

iens. Tomorrow: Boston Bruins. B PIERRE LE MOYNI M0 Oct. 10—(CP)—-Dick

Irvin, coach of Montreal Canad- iens feels "forced to admit the superiority" of team in the National Hockey League this year. but dofllft want other coaches to think the same.

. “If they make up their minds that we have the best team, they'll gang up on us," said Irvin, "In the Toronto Maple Leafs’ training camp, every one ls ve modest about the future of the sis and all have the highest praise for our team. They have something up their sleeves."

Irvin thinks he's in somewhat of a spot. “Nobody has forgotten our outstanding record of last year and for that reason alone you can be sure we'll be the team that all clubs will want to be ."

For "the superiority" of his team, Irvin argues:

"Every team will open their schedule th a much stronger lineup than revious years. Now Caniadiens, havng had the best club for the past two seasons, will be all the stronger this year and will again wind up at the wil."

Among Canadiens’ problems is need of a good left-winger to team up with Buddy O'Connor and Joe Benoit on the second line and an over-abundance of good defence- men, some of whom will have to be turned loose on close decisions.

Aside from the regular defence of last season, Canadians have Mike McMahon, who helped them win the Stanley Cup in 1944; Cliff Goupille, the outstanding Canad- ien rearguard before he enlisted in

; Wilf Field, who came to Montreal when New York Am- ericans disbanded; and Butch Sta- han s. geroanlsing player from the Quebec riior Hcc

However, rumor has it that Irvin will keep his rearguard of last year: Butch Bcuchard. all-star sel- ection of last season. Leo Ilamour-

The enrollment oi students at Prince oi Wales College this year is one cf the largest in its history. Approximately live hundred and_ fity students have registered for, courses with a larger proportion of‘ males than in recent, years. ’I‘his. increase is due in a large part to the return of the veterans of World War II, of whom fifty to sixty have enrolled at this institution. -

During the war records of mcbil-‘ ization indicate the lack of physi- cal development of the outh o!‘ Canada. Approximately ha f of the, young men who were examine before enlistment were found tobe medically unfit. ‘Ihe reason was. self-evldent-not enough emphasis was placed on the development of the body. The Dominion Govern- ment. aroused by these records, started n nation-wide movement for further development of strong. healthy bodies, and placed more emphasis than ever on games and athletic contests.

The students of Prince oi Wales College have always been keenly interested In athletic contests and physical developmenb The Ath- etic Association of Prince of Wales has endeavoured in the past w promote such athletics but have

In recent years on attem t has been made w revive trac field competition on Prince Dd- ward Island. This revival was sev- erely handicap by the lack of an outside cin er track. Thus. the

At Prince of Wales we are handicapped by the lack of a cinder track and we are not able to enter our track teams into sports meets with the required We would like to put track and field athletics, for both sexes, on a par with those of other colleges. We have the material but we lack the means.

In winter we are Ctlllhlly handl- capped in our attemp s to provide recreation and exercise for our students. In i939 an outdoor rink was built, behind the college bulld- lng where skatink. intro-mural hockey and other winter sports were provided for a large number oi students. The rink was removed a year ago, which had a drastic effect on our winter athletics. It had been the policy of the Athletic Association to organise both boys and girls‘ intra-murol hockey leag- ues. Now no rink was available to carry on these leagues. We made an attempt to hire the Pol-um at certain hours but time was not available and the expense was too great to meet with college funds. Skating was provided for one hour a week at the Forum at a consider- able expense to the students. One hour of skating per week is not enough to provide sufficient exer- cise ior five or six hundred stu- dents. _

In regard to intra-mural hockey our only alternative was to hire the Upper Queen Street rink. Here again we met obstacles, the main one being the uncertainty of the weather which disrupted the hoc- key schedules. As a result the total number of games played by both leagues was five. This is a ridicu- lously small number in comparison to those played in the years Bone by. When the college rink was in existence all scheduled games were completed and intra-mural leagues

were successful. . Bl. Dilnstans University cun- 19126 i1

If the students of Prince o! Wales are to hove any chance to develop sound ies and sound minds. this lack of facilities fqr athletics and healthy recreation must be overcome so that Prince of Wales will step into line with its sister colleges of the Maritimes.

In view of the above facts and considering the time has come when these facilities for physical development and recreation, should be provided. we. ls representatives of the undersigned petitioners of Prince o! Wales College do hereby request that a. regulation football field with a cinder track, be pro- vided st Victoria Park.
