It was a tough break for the Col- legians, but quite in accord with the rules of the game. ‘ It may be mentioned here that referee Mathieson handed out fif- teen pcnalty kicks against both teams, the locals getting ten and Mount A. five, in his endeavor to stop infraction of the rules, espacl-i ally the handing and knocking-on} of the ball. A number of fans com-l plaincd of too much whistle, outAa good referee irandles a game as he sees it and consequently lets little get uway from him-whistle or no whistle. During the remainder of the inst half, territory was about equally cli- vided. Abcgwelts went after Mounties in good shape in the last session, and from the kick-off, were forced to use every strategy and stamina at their command to stop the repeated advances of the rugged Char- lottetonians. As it was, the locals should have scored on numerous oc- caslons, but costly fumbles when within striking distance proved their undoing and the loss of a victory. In this half Mount A. was pulled ‘the fast work of Peebles, who beat Abegwelts’ ruggers to the hall for safety touches. It was a great tussle and the lo- calsshould well feel proud of their showing against the tricky and well trained college men. Mount A. plays St. Dunstans this afternoon and will return home on Tuesday, where they are booked to! battle Abegwelts in a return game the same afternoon.

CA. HA. Changes ‘suit oi the discussion on the Instead Of One Year O Into Effect MONTREAL, Que, Oct. 1B. the Canadian Prcssi-The execut- ive committec of the Canadian Am- atcur Hockey Association took fir reaching and drastic action to curb the activities of “iour-lst" hockey players at a meeting held here to- day. The date of change oi residence of players from province to prov- ince or from branch to branch as it is known in the C. A. H. A. was changed to January 1 instead of afay l5, as formerly. This means that a player going from one branch to another must stay out of hockey one Winter b8- iore qualifying in his new place of residence. The date of change of residence within n. branch was left at May i5. ’I‘his action was taken as a re- re- fusal o.‘ the Manitoba branch to sanction transfer applications of eight Winnipeg players moving to Moncton and Montreal witnout a sworn affidavit by each player be- lng atiachcd to the transfer ap- plicaiions. This was finally settled by referring the trmser ap- plications beck to the Manitoba branch provided they are accom- panied by the sworn affidavits. The branch will then consider the ap- plications and if found satisfactory, the transfers will be granted. The other transfers which were held up must also be accompanied by sworn affidavits of eich player. The Man- branch found the affidavits to be unsatisfactory the matter would be turned over to the proper author- ities and legal action taken. The new residence rule, while not affecting the season of 1931-32 goes into effect immediately. That is to sty, any players wishing to move from one branch to another for the 1932-33 season will have to be in residence in his new branch by January i, i932.

Some of the delegates thoughi that as they had not discussed the question with their branches, the motion should be left over until a later date when the branches had signified their approval or disap- proval. This stand was not approv- ed by the majority and the motion was voted upon and passed. H. O. Schryer, Bathurst, N.B., President of the Maritime Branch of the C. A. H. A. did not vote.
