clarlflcations. at a meeting called first, half of the league schedule.

It was stated after tile all-day sessions that all clubs are ahead In receipts u compared with the same number of games last sesscn, with the most spectacular gains made by Detroit Red Wings and Montreal Canadians. .

The rules clarifications. sponsor- ed by the rules committee and e1- fectlve mmediately are:-

I. llf s. player hits the puck with his stick raised above his shoulder the referee shall instantly blow his whistle and any uck shot into a goal on such actcn will not count “auima agreed mt n 1.1

. “I was a s cu s player p a pud: into the crease of e opponent club and this puck become loose and avail- a-ble to another player on the at- tacking side. the puck shculd be considered In the crease legylly and any gial scored on the play will be a legal goal."

The new fines are intended to discourage free-for-all fights such as have broken out In New York. Chicago and Montreal this season.

It was the feeling ct the meeting that the hot-blooded clashes be- tween t/wo players are inevitable in a game of such constant physical contact. but that the referee and llnmnen can handle such fights Consequently two such players are not llttblg to the fines. but are only subject to such penalties as referee may give them. The automatic fines go to any player or players who Join 1:1 the original scrap. and are in addition to any penalties they may incur.

Germany's reasons for picking the cenmal Mediterranean gateway. the Sicilian Channel, as the site forIt- ado-German air operations against British see, power. are stirring con- lecttire in London. There is some speculation as to whether Hitler ls ma: to open the way for dispatch- ing German troops into Libya. to save Italy's shattered army.

Other reasons. perhaps more pro-

For one one thing, joint Axis operations against Brit- ain in that theatre d0 hot involve Germany directly ln the Italo- Greek war. nor risk a general Bal- kan conflagration. Berlin has thus far carefully avoided that. because of its lble impairment of her Rumanlan oil sources.

so to be noted that

the fighting in Sicilian waters been out of action for months. The fact that they have been sent to help Ialv iepmsents no impairment of German air strength being used In the attack on Britain. Only in the event of a German attempt to invade Britain or Bulgaria or Yu- goslavia would they be needed for active service elsewhere.

Operations from close-up bases In Sicily and in the narrow Sicilian channel are well suited to dive- bornbers. Thcy are short-range ships. That in part accounted for their withdrawal against the British the alr campaign against the British Isles. although frequently 611111131118 German technique 1n that struggle was probably the chief cause of their retirement.

British and Italian accounts of the air-sea fighting off Sicily agree In only one respect. The only naval craft sunk was a small Italian de- stroyer.
