He received a $15 fine.
It was indeed a strange way of acting after

never got too excited
about any of Horeck's statements after that.
‘ NOWHE is m the. news again after John Bailey took a swing at him. Horeck always had his troubles with opposing players but this
time it was one of his own
that decided to swing. Johnny had been
riding Bailey about his failure to back check and Bailey, according to Horeck. let go with some language that wasn‘t exactly fit for the parlor. Alt any rate it horrified the coach who kept jawlng away at

We don‘t condone Bailey's actidn for a moment. but we are sur- prised that it hasn't happened before. Some coaches have the idea . that they have a perfect right to do just about anything to a play- er.-There's bound to be a breaking point sooner or later and that pdint was reached by Jolm Bailey this week. We don't know how much Bailey reserved or how much Horeck said. but Bailey figured lie-had enough and let fly away at the talkative Horeck. We‘ll watch the progress of this case with more than the usual
amount of interest.
‘ LADY, HAS YOUR husband put. those storm windows on yet? 1.lif the answer is no. then don't expe'ct any such action from him 1113i weekend. He has a busy schedule Saturday afternoon and even- ing that’s bound to leave him mighty fatigued by about 11:30 pm.
Make sure you have dinner on time because that husband of yours should have at least a little rest before the action commences at
1.55. That’s the time the Ottawa
Roughriders and Hamilton Tiger—
Cats begin action in Hamilton. This will be the second game of a two-game total point series for the Big Four championship and the right to represent the East at Vancouver in the Grey Cup game on November 29. The Tiger-Cats hold a commanding 29 point lead after their convincing 35-7 victory at Ottawa last Saturday. Chances are the Frank Clair‘s coached squad will make a better showing than last weekend. but there appears little likelihood that they can
overcome such a deficit.
' WHEN THIS ONE is over, your television screen will have the Edmonton Eskimos—Winnipeg Blue Bombers tussle. the third game in a bestof-three series for the W.I.E.U. championship. The teams are tied at one game apiece, with Saturday's victor earning the trip to the west coast for the Grey Cup game with the Big Four champ- idns. This game will last till approximately 6.30. so wives could be either nice and serve husband their evening meal in the living room. In this way. the men folk won't have to rush to the supper table, gobble down some food and make a hasty retreat to the ball game. Such a procedure would probably lead to indigestion and no thought-
ful wife wants this to happen.
AFTER THE W.I.F.U. game is over. make sure there's hot water ' for a bath and shave, so that he'll look his finest when he goes to St.vDunstan‘s for that basketball game at 8 o'clock featuring the House of David boys. This is something that hubby can't afford to miss. because it's the greatest basketball attraction to come our Way in years. so everybody who can get there Saturday night should do just that. These bearded boys are terrific entertainers and have thrilled crowds wherever they have appeared. This game will just be over in time to let those husbands jump in their cars and head for home and the Montreal Canadien—Chicago Black Hawks game which will be televised at 10 o'clock. That will
run through till about 11:30 and b ds are going to be a tired lot.

." 0 there you have it. What an afternoon and evening for sport fails. one that should really have you on the ropes by the time it's all over. Wives should therefore show the utmost consideration to those poor husbands who will'be ‘forced' to see it all from beginning
to ‘end.
.‘By the way. about those storm windows. Better pay some chap to put them on early next week. because the next Saturday will be the Grey Cup classic. And the next week the East-West game.
.You just can't win, can you?
WELL. THOSE Edmonton Eskimos really came off the ropes Wednesday night at Winnipeg to force a third game in that western final. Beaten soundly at home on Saturday. the Eskimos bounced back to hand the Bombers a 30-7 lacing. exactly the same treatment the Winnipegers handed them in Edmonton.
You would wonder as you watched Wednesday nights battle how Edmonton had ever been beaten at home by the Bombers. The Al- bertans soundly outplayed the Manitoba boys and now the outcome of that third game Saturday afternoon is very much in doubt.
Edmonton‘s triumph will probably serve as a stimulant to those Ot'uu a Rnughridcrs who are on the blink of elimination. They have tu'i‘nty-(‘illil points to make up Saturday in Hamilton and you won‘t

Packer Coach Seeks Key To First Victory
MOSCOW (AP). Coach Jack O’Reilly ran his Kelowna Packv ers through an hour-long practice session Thursday in hopes of find- ing the key to the first victory of their five~game hockey series With Soviet squads.
The Packers play a Moscow junior team today for their fourth game.
O’Reilly and his team are not discouraged although so far they have failed to win a game. The team lost the first 43 and tied the next 'two. 1-1 and 2-2
A different system of playing by the Russians is responsible for the Canadians’ inability to score a, victory. O‘Reilly feels. So do the team members who say the Soviet players conCentrate on checking opponent rather than trying to score.
"But we‘re coming up now and starting to get an idea of how the Soviet teams play.“ O'Reilly said.

Don‘t you think. hockey promo- ters and fans. that it's getting c10se to zero hour as far as taking action regarding an Island Senior League is concerned? Summer- side naturally wants an Island league formed. but we can't at- ford to hang around much longer waiting for someone else to decide our fate. Why not fix a date as a deadline. and if nothing can be accomplished by that time. make the best of the situation as it exiSts and attempt to form a workable Prince County league.
We admit this would be a bit of a gamble. but with nothing else in sight it seems worth gam- bling on. We admit it might fail to capture fan interest it might prove a flop. On the other hand, it might catch on and prove high- ly successful. This would perhaps depend on how evenly balanced the teams were. and how the publicity angles were handled.
A regulation could, be made '
that all Ace players must be resi~ dents of Summerstde. The rest of Prince County could be divid- ed mto, let up say. three large areas from which players could be_taken for three rural teams. This might develop sectional pride in the teams. and also pro- vide evenly-matched clubs. If you can get both those things working for you, you've really got something.
Pooling players and picking them in turn can 'produce balanc- ed‘ teams, but if you don’t have pride and partisanship connected with a certain section or organiz- ation. fan interest isn't easy ‘0 come by. If you pick your teams from towns or areas will be more loyal. but then the bugbear :3 you may have too strong or too weak club in your loop. If you can achieve both balance and sec- tional pride. you're on your wav to success.
All-Stars from the league could be picked to play exhibition games with Charlottetown or mainland centres as often as this were possible. We don't know how it would affect M.A.H.A. competition . but certainly it would be the same situation as a city league in Charlottetown. 1f

an Island league cannot be .form- ed. this might be.the next best thing. In fact. it might turn out to be the very best bet of all. We’ve talked to sports fans who think so.

three goals! Louis Poirier and Donnie Birchi potted a brace each. Jamie Phil-I lips and George Grady accounted: for the other two tallies. Claude (laudct got no less than six of the Coomac seven scores. Dennis Arscnault shooting the other.
The Birch Hill boys stole the show with their sensational fin- ish. Sherebrooke had the west— erners down 5-1 at one stage of the second period. but Birch Hill' roared back for seven straight tallies. winning 55. David Birch. prolific scorer for last year's Island lntcrmediate “C” champs. shot three goals. as did Donat MacWilliams. who is trying out for a place on the Ace defence. Elmer Gorrill and Ronnie Nisbet got singletons. Eldon Roberts shot two for the losers. Irv Sonier. Des Roberts. and Joe Gallant getting one each.
Eldon Hardy's goal late in the third period gave Elmsdale a 4-3 victory over Tignish in the night cap. Other Elmsdale marks- men were A. Wallace. L. Richard. and Lloyd Gaudet. Roy Handra- lian. L. Richard. and A. McAu- lif‘fe scored for. 'l'ignish.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cat coach, who watched Wednesday’s sec- ond game (if the Western confer- ence final series which Eskimos won 303-7. said: “1 think we‘ve al- ready got the defensive patterns to cope with either of them."
Trimble wasn‘t impressed with either western club. He said the Eskimo victory was mainly based on defensive lapses and sloppy ball~hand1ing by Bombers, who won the opener of the best- otf-three series in Edmonton. The deciding same is Saturday at
300 people from their homes.
