Canada Meets P 0 I a n d I n

Opening Game

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

GARMISOH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany, Feb. 5.—Canada's hockey players were tucked in bed early to- night, anxious for the whistle tn- IIIOITOW that will send them against Poland in one of the games inaug- urating competition in the fourth Olympic Winter Games.

At two p. m. (l0 a. m., AST.) ‘rife confident Canadians. at top strength according to Coach Pudas, will face a Polish team reputed to be strong on nearby Ressier Lake. At the same hour, the United States team will face Germany in the stad- .um here. ‘ a

Fifteen teams are competing for the hockey title, which Canada has held since the winter games were inaugurated. Teams sporting the ‘Maple Leaf have not, in fact, lost a game in Olympic competition, but this yea-r the United States and England. in particular are consider- ed to have stronger squads than .hcse of otherOlymplc 1'88"-

For the first round draw, the teams hav e been split into four groups. The groups were formed lll such a. manner that the four European teams considered the strongest would not meet in elimin- ation contests, and that. Canada and the United States would not be paired.

The groups follow:

No, one-Canada, Poland, Austria, Latvia.

No. two-United States, Germany, Switzerland, Italy-

No. three-Hungary. France, Bel- gium, Czecho-Slovakia.

No. four-England. Sweden, Ja- pan.

In the first round. each team will play the other teams of the group. with the two leaders, determined on the point. basis, advancing to the second round. The eight survivors will then be spdt into two KYWDS of four teams for a similar series that will reduce the field tn four tea-ms and ultimately to two final- lets.

British Boxer To Make Bid For U.S. Titles

NEW'YORK, Feb. 5—'I'he boxing tom-touts will start beating again tomorrow when Jock McAvoy re- turns t0 New York with the most ambitious ring program ever un- dertaken by an invading puglllst.

McAvoy. holder of British titles in the middleweight and light- heavyweight. classes. wants to cap- ture the world titles in both divisions.

If successful. he proposes to chal- lenge Jimmy Braddock, Joe Louis or whoever is on top, for the world's heavyweight championship, in 1937. ' .

McAvoy is matched to fight John Henry Iewls, negro holder of the light heavy or ITS-pound title. The date has been shifted veral times and ie likely to be t for some time in March, at Madison Square Garden, to avoid conflict._wlth the newly developed McLarnln-Con- zcnerl match.

If the Briton whips the Arizona negro. he will seek a return bout at the middleweight limit of 160 pounds with champion Babe Rlsko. McAvoy flattened Risko a month ago in one spectacular round. It was a non-title affair. with the in- vader scallng 168 1-2.

l O O

With two lucrative bouts in sight here. Tony Canzonerl, the light- weight ruler, has abandoned plans to go to London to fight Harry Mitaler, who represented England Ln the i982 Olympic Games.

Action Taken lchurrnan Sinks Winning. Against Club Iounter As, Crystals De-

EXe¢l1liVe,2at= Superiors

By Elmer Dulmagc

Canadian Press Staff Writer (By Guardian's Special Wire)

TORONTO, Feb. i-President W. A. Fry of the Amateur Athletic Un- ion of Canada announced tonight the expulsion from amateur sport of nine members of the Ottawa Roughrlders IPootbaII club execu- tives as an aftermath of the "great impersonation" of Roy Berry ‘by Bohh Hilliard 18st fall.

Hilliard, former University of Texas halfback, assumed the name of Roy Berry and played with Roughriders in the Interprovincial Union last. season. Mr. Fry said he was satisfied that the impersona- tion actually took place and he was not satisfied that the club executive was unaware of it.

Those expelled are George F. Perley, P. Lorne Young, Stewart Christie, James P. McCaffrey, James Wright. Robert Thompson, J. E. Stanley Lewis. J. P. Ebbs and S. C. Hooper- Mr. Lewis is Mayor of Ot- tawa.

“It. is almost incredible to believe that such prominent sportsmen could have acquiesced in this shook- lng breach of the ethics of British fair play and sportsmanship, and it will be a pleasure, indeed, to lift this ban if and when any or all of those mentioned present to the Eastern Ontario branch of the Un- ion of Ottawa satisfactory evidence that the impersonation was without their knowiedge,” Mr. Fry asserted.

An official investigation of the Hilliard-Berry impersonation, con- ducted by the A. A. U. of C. through Daniel J. Ferris of New York, Sec- retary of the Amateur Athletic Un- lon of the United States, revealed that Roy Berry could not have been in Ottawa last fall.

At the end of a 2,000-word sum- mary of the situation, addressed to all branches of the A. A. U., out- lining his investigation and the various steps taken before the ques- tion came into official hands, Pres- ident Fry said:

"This, therefore, is to notify all branches of the A. A. U. of C. that from this date forth the athletes under their control are forbidden, under penalty of suspension, to par- ticipate in any individual or team sport sponsored by a. club which has on its list of officers. directly or indirectly, any of last years Ottawa. rugby football executive."

The Hilliard-Berry scandal was “broken" last fall, late in the big four football season, by.Edwin Al- lan, sports editor of the Toronto

' Mail and Empire, who said he had

evidence that mtawafs Roy Berry was really Bohn Hilliard. Ottawa officials quickly denied the charge and the big four executive took no action.

Ottawa Itoughriders were already out of the running for the league championship but they finished the schedule by defeating Toronto Argonauts twice on successive Sat- urdays, depriving Argos of the title which went to Hamilton ‘Tigers. Berry, or Hilliard, was a star ln both games

A bri‘llant unassisted goal from the stick of Jackie Schurman early in the third period gave Summer- slde Crystals a 3-2 victory over the superiors at the Forum last night lu an exhibition game. Schurman: goal broke a Z-all deadlock that had extted from the second period and although the losers failed to score the equalizer they gave the largest crowd of fans of the season thrill after thri‘l as they rcpsatcdly sent. four and five man attacks dccp ln- to Crystal territory, only to be turn- ed back by a rugged defence and smart goalie.

The game was a typical old time Charlottetown-Summerslde struggle with Crystals being cheered on by 400 western fans who had come down by special train. Neither team showed to any advantage over the other and the encounter was close all the way. Fifteen penalties were dished out by Referees Mel Diamond and- Cri‘1y Lea, mostly for minor offences as with the excep- tlon of a flare up in the first period the players stuck strictly to hockey even though the checking at times was plenty rugged and feeling was running high. ‘The flare-up occur- red early lrrthe first period when Williams and Phillips started trad- ing punches but five minute pen- alties slapped on the offenders cooled off their battling tendencies.

On the Summerside lineup last night were familiar lacs to Char- lottetown hockey fans. Montgom- ery, Schurman, Danny Gallant and Charlie Cahlll were all there and although ‘they may have slowed up somewhat they retain p'el1by of their old cunning. Cahlll, lately reinstated to the amateur rinlm was probably the best man on the ice. He was a distinct threat all evening and with Jackie Schurman shared the starring honors of the visitors. Schurman figured in all three goals scoring the winner and drawing assists on two while Cahlll account-

ed for one. »

Play. alter a ragged start, pepper! up considerably at the halfway mark of the first period and Weeks, superiors’ goalie performed sensa- tlonally on two occasions as he out-. guessed Schurman from five feet out after the tricky centreman had stlckhandled through. Battling even the team; failed to score a goal un- til after fourteen minutes had elapsed but when they did start three goals were shot in less than six minutes with the visitors get- ting the odd one.

Mont Montgomery of the Crys- tals sent the visitors info a one- nothlng lead at 14.25. Schurman carrying over the line bounced a hard drive off Weeks’ pads’ and Montgomery was right in Pflsltlon

cage.

One minute and 25 seconds later Superiors made it l-all on a pretty combination play. McIntyre skating down left wing rounded woodslde on the Summersldq defence to slip a short forward pass to Smith and the latter player made no mistake as he picked the openccrner clean- ly

Crystals however, came right back and before the period was ov- er had regained the lead. Again it was Schurman who made the p‘ay for the goal. this time feeding Cahlll inside the line and the for- mer pro gave Weeks nc chancr as
