PITTSBURGH (API e- I l d Gordon. a veteran outfielder and third baseman now in his 14th year in the major leagues. was sold to New York Giants by Pittsburgh Pirates Monday in a straight cash deal. The Pirates declined to re- veal tbe amount of cash involved.

The deal sends Gordon back to the team with which he began his major league career in 1941. He played with the Giants through 1949, with the exception of 1914 and 1945 when ha was in the armed forces.

In 1950 he went to the Boston Braves and continued to play with the Braves in 1953 when the team's franchise was switched to Milwau- kee. He came to the Pirates in 1954 in a trade that sent Danny O'Connell tie the Braves.

Poulton withstood a determined bid by Simon in the early rounds to try and unseat the former titlehnlder, only to lose out round by round as Poulton whittled him down with long. clean hard punching. Gary was never out of the pic- ture at any time and was always dangerous with his boring-in tac- tics and gave the local boxer plenty of tough moments, but Harry's ringmanship proved -the deciding factor in the eyes of the judges.

Discusses Canada's Future

REGINA ICP)-A Canadian en- try in next year's Olympic hockey meet in Italy appears a certainty, but the financial road to future European h o c k e y tournaments might be a rough one.

W. B. (Baldy! George of Kcmpi- ville. 0nt.. president of the Cana- dian Amateur Hockey Association, told the annual CAHA meeting Monday that Canada is ”obliga ted" to send a team to the Olym- pics. which every four years re- place the world amateur hockey championshipa in Europe.

But he was "not too enthu- siastic" about Canadian participa- tion in future tournaments in Eu- rope, ilinugh the CAHA might ob- tain whatever f' ' ' agreement it wants when the next tourna- ment ia held in Moscow in 1957 because "Canada certainly is the drawing card."

Reporting to the meeting on Penticlon Val success in this year's tournament in Germany. he said Canadian teams are ”more or less exploited” because of their difficulty in taking money out of most European countries.

GET SMALL CUT

The Canadian teams might re- ceive only SL000 of the 310,000- plus gate from "-attended ex- hibition games in larger centres. In a Paris exhibition game. the United States team this year earned only 31,000 from a gross gate of "close to 310,000” and thus "paid for their own good time in Paris."

In all. the CAHA lost about S5.- 000 on this year's iuuniament. The association meeting later will con- sider a proposal to ditch the world meets because of the pinch on the budget.

George made no mention of an earlier reptrt that an unidentified non - commercial organization in, Canada might foot the bill to send' a team to the next European con-: test. j

Secretary-manager Gcorile Diid-, ley of Midland. 0nt.. said Sunday, the organization would spend tlic. required 525,000 "strictly for "if adverlisng" and its character and reputation would ellminatc any CAHA hesitancy in accepting the offer.

weeks. Dudley said. THREE APPLY

Three teams already have filed applications with the CAHA to rep- resent Canada at the 1956 Olympics.

They are Kilt-hcncr's Allan Cup iitlists. the runner-up Fort William team and the intermediate cham- pion Brandon Wheat Kings. All three clubs-but not necessarily all their players - could meet Olympic qualifications. '

George said that any effort to bring European teams to Canada or the United States for the world tournament would be "financial suicide.'

Cost of this year's tournament. sponsored by the German ice Hockey Federation. was roughly S750.000. The German organizers had budgeted for a gross revenue of close to 31.000000 but instead probably would end with I deficit.

”I don't think (the tournament) would be attractive over here," George said.

CRITICS OFF BASE

The CAHA president also label- led as ”omplctely unjustified" some of the adverse criticism of the Penticton team's conduct over- seas.

The Penticton players had been called "thugs" because of their style of play. "They were no

They had retumed home with admiration for the European no- boarding rule and thought that ”if something (similar) could be done here it would improve our game tremendously and would be well received by the fans."
