The Physical Fitness Trophy. donated for Junior conipetl ion. is a beautiful piece of silverware and is bound to beccme one of the most coveted trophies to be com- peted for annually among the curl- ing fraternity. The Charlottetown Curling Club played host to the visiting members of the Montague, Aiberton and Srmmerslds rink during the two day ‘spiel and the visitors had a really enjoyable time. The curling game is catch- ing on more than ever and it is safe to predict that next year the game will be even more widespread among the younger set.

Tn the rush of events the past two days the fact that the Char- lotetown Curling Club won the McArthur Challenge Trophy from the Montague Club all but passed unnoticed. This trophy, along with the Gaboury Cup, is one of the old- est pieces of silverware td be play- ed for annually.

Clarence Campbell, the NHL president, in a recent talk before the Ottawa Kiwanis Club raised a few pointers with regard to devel- ppznent of young players that are well worth repeating here.

Said Mr. Campbell: '— "I am not advocating any changes in our own game among seniors and pro- fessionals. but I do think that hoc- key leaders might well abolish some o: the restrictions in tho way of lines {or the youngsters. I think t t when boys are learning the game they are apt to concen- trate too much on mastering the

cones. I mean by that they get a little smart about taking advant- age of the bluo or red lines at the Q-O 9Q V‘? 00-01
