MONTREAL. (CP)-When the seventh annual all-star game of- ficially ushers In the 1953-54 Nu- tionai Hockey League season Sat- urday night. in Montreal Forum. several new changes in rules will come into effect.

The most important. especially for spectators. takes from lines- men discretionary power in decid- ing whether a puck whipped out from the defensive zone is an "attempted" or "intended" and not icing. I

Other changes provide for en- larging the solid-colored spots In the centre of face-off circles and set at 16, exclusive of goalie, the number of players who may be dressed. This last change does not apply to the all-star game

self.

Two regulations with an all- star hearing go into effect. this year. Voting for the all-star team will be done twice each season, instead of only at the end. De- fencemen come into their own at long last, with an individual trophy for the outstanding de- feneeman of. the year, plus 51,000 from the NHL(

He decided to take ll chance and flash Mickey Mantle the "hit sign" when the count was two balls and no strikes in the clght inning.

if they considered it I legal lt- tempted pass.

Under the rule change. if the intended receiver falls to touch the puck and it cannot be played by the defending team before it crosses the extended goal line. that's icing. The llnesmen have no authority to rule an attempted pass.

At the same time. the defend- ing team can't stand around non- chalantly. if the puck is playable, and wait for an icing whistle. That: won't be any, and mean- while tho opponents will come galloping in because the puck is in play.

Diameter of the spots in face- off clrcle,ls increased from 12 to 18 inches. This was done to make for "'cleaner face-offs." Face-off players must keep their sticks clear of the spot until the puck is dropped. The change does not affect the centre-ice spot. It was feltvthe centre-ice red line "might become fouled up" be- cause the line itself is 12 inches wide, not 18. .

Under last seasons rules, the home team could dress 16 play- ers and goalie; the visiting team 15 and goalie. Tliepurpose was to give more leeway for tryouts without the necessity of carrying an extra player on road trips. But it was felt desirable to re- turn to an even balance, away or at home.

Manager Charley Dressen retired to his den off from the regular dressing room and held his usual post-game press conference in tones so low that half the writers couldn't hear the conversation.

"You can't second-guess home runs." the Dodger skipper said. "We're in bad shape. than for sure, but if Erskine can win to- morrow muybe we'll be all right."

Dresaen had announced earlier that cul Erskine. his 20-game winner who was shelled in the first inning of the opening game. would come back against the Yankees when the teens shift: to Ebbeta Field.

"The trouble with ml is we're not getting the hits when we need 'em.'' Drusen said. "How many men did we leave on bun today? Ten? And it was 12 yesterday."
