A new high school rule was ad- opted similar to that passed lasr. week at Columbus by the minor leagues. The minors also approved

Commissioner" Ford Frick, pre- siding over his first Joint meeting. passed the decisive vote aizalnsl cutting players limits from 25 in 23 men. The clubs were deadlocked at eight-eight.

Clarence Rowlmid. president of the Pacific Coast League. said he will apply for open classification a: soon as possible in line with the majors' action. The minors already have approved an open classifica- lion.

Rowland expects the coast 'clr- cuit to operate as an open league in 1932. The open classification is 9. start toward elimination of the player draft which ultimately may brim major league ball to the wcsr coast.

If the ban on the 24-hour recall had been adopted, an optioned player would have remained in the minors for the (titration of the sea- son in which hr. v.-as sent down.

Moncton. Hawks Come From Behind To Defeat Chitown Islanders ,6-4

MONCTON. Dec. 9 - (Special) - Johnny Horeck's fast. skating Moncton Hawks led by winger Ronnie Rowe scored three goals in the last half of the third pe- riod here tohight. to come from behind and defeat the Charlotte- town Islanders 6-4 in the hard- est hitting. most. exciting game in Moncton Stadium this season.

Apparently embittered by the verbal war between the two rival coaches Leo Lamoureux and Johnny Horeck the two teams fought tooth and nail for nearly 53 minutes before the Hawks ucnt. ahead to stay. Tile win gives the Hawks 31 points. two less than the Islanders who have lost their last three gamcs.

The islanders lost the ,services of their coach Leo Lamoureux midway through the first period

when he was banished from the co:n:hcs' box for his attempted ”hat trick". Lamoureux. enraged

over a referee's decision, threw his hat on the ice and jumped over the boards after it. He tangled with a referee and several police- men before being retird from the battle lanes.

Ronnie Rowe scored three tim.-s in the bristling encounter with his last goal bcing the winning on:-. Dennis Fillon scored twice and Morric Hamilton shot the clincher about 30 seconds after the fifteen minute mark in the last session.

But up until Hamilton fired the clincher the teams battled back

and forth all night with never more than a one-goal margin betlvecn them. They were tied

2-2 at the end of the first period and 3-3 at the completion of the middle stanza.

Roper Plays Good Game Frankie Roper playrd in of the injured Hal Gordon turned in a great game. Roper made several bristling stops and was called upon 29 times to halt

Moncton rubber.

Bruno "Red" Favcro. on a probation basis. was prob- ably the pick or the islanders forwards. He set up plays for two goals and skated faster than at any time this year.

Left winger Walter Pawlyshyn was high scorer for the Islanders with two goals. both in the first period. Conrad Bonhonimc and Bob Gray fired the other two.

Bolihomme-'5 -3081. coming the early part of the third period. was the prettiest of the night. The score was tied 3-3 and the Islanders two men short at the time. Bonhomme took Dutch:ik's pass and broke out of his own end into the clear. to beat Lock- hart on an over the shoulder shot.

Play opened in the first period at a fast clip and stayed that way most of the night with a short exception during the sec- ond session. The bumping starl- ed early and increased in tempo as the game progressed.

Pawlyshyn put the Islanders one goal up at 5:17 of the open- ing twenty minutes when he drove Favei-o's pass into the corn.

Favero again set up Pawiyshyn for the Islanders second marker. The little redhead took the puck from his own blueline. streaked down centre ice and through the Moncton defense. Pawlyshyn pick- ed up the loose puck in front of the net. and swung it in behind Lockhart.

But. the fireworks still were not over. A minor donnybrook in- volving six players broke out for which Johnny Dulchak and Sandy

defenseman. was struck by a

The Moncton forwards showed a healthy respect for the Island- ers defense from which they took quite a beating. "Red" Bui- mzin and Ronnie Rowe were hard hit several times with Batman receiving two bone crushing belts from Larry Travis and Johnny Dutchak.

Dennis Filicn and Rowe were the pick of the Moncton forwards with the former playing the more aggressive game. Several times he broke in on Roper only to be stopped by the great work of the pinch hitting goalie.

the hat is passed around at it hockey game

It's not often that

but Leo L:tnitiulcux's chapeau ciiangtd hands so many times dur- ing the first period of Saturday night's hockey game at Moncton that. it began to look like it quart- erback snrak of Johnny Lujat'k's in football.

And as it matter of fact it looked something like a foot- ball game when the Islanders players went into a huddle around several Moncton policemen who wished to run interference for ref- ercc Frank Elliot, the hat carrier.
