That's the essence of two hours discussion here Tuesday on the question of the second team at the annual meeting of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association.

Actually. the delegates passed only one motion. It said the CAHA otflcers were to be Itven the Job of selecting I team of the "high- est cIllbre possible" to.represent Canada in 1055.

It would sideline an application from Sudbury Wolves. made to the CA1-1A meeting Monday. for the trip. Wolves said they did not want to make a pre-tournament tour. Delegates were definite that it pre- tournament tour was essential.

Delegates said they did not feel that any club should be selected from the winners or runners-up in the Allen Cup or junior tourna- ments.

There was no assurance that the same team that won the champion- ship would be in existence the fol- lowing year. Additionally, picking I complete team and sending it overseas would possibly break up the league to which it belonged.

Hamilton's request to make the trip was turned down by the On- exec- utive, but it is believed It will be reconsidered.

The convention also unanimously approved I resolution asking that attempts be made to have the old facing-the-puck rule restored.

The Bclvedcre Golf Course un- officially opens today for what will likely be another successful sea- son. We came across an article the other day about Bantam Ben Hogan. the great. little professional golfer. in which it was stated that Hogan used to be quite I press fighter. The article referred to the book "My Partner Ben Hogan". written by Jimmy Demaret who is also I topnotich ball pounder in his own right. During the first part of his career Hogan used to tee off on the press as hard I: he did on the ball.

Hogan left for his hotel and began packing for a trip to salt. Lake City. Then came the phone call-— there had been I general blow-up on the course and Hogan‘: seven- stroke deficit became I one-stroke victory. But Hogan almply checked out. and drove away to his next tourney. The Denver papers roast. ed hlm mercilessly next. (toy and Hogan spent lavishly on counter- attacking phone calls.
