The Guardian, Charlottetown, Wed., Feb. 10, 1965. 11} SPORTS FRONT \. \ Makes Charge By JEM CULLEN Eddie Powers who retired one year ago as a referee from the National Hockey League has made some very serious charges against league president, Clarence Campbell and referee- in-chief, Carl Voss. Powers resigned because he claimed he wasn’t © getting sufficient support from the league president. Powers has charged that the game between the Boston Bruins and the New York Rangers 6n March’ 22, 1962 was not all in order and that he has evidence to prove that Carl Voss urged former referee Dalton McArthur to call ‘only good penal- ties’ against the Rangers in a crucial playoff game. The Rangers won the tilt 4-3 and it enabled them to edge out the Detroit Red Wings for the fourth and final playoff berth that year. » George Hayes, who was fired from the National Hockey League refereeing staff, recently, when he refused to take an eye test was a linesman for the Boston-New York battle and he has supported Powers in his charges against the NHL. This humble observer can’t help but wonder why these people wait until they have been fired or have resigned from the National Hockey League before they become such ‘good citizens’ and attempt to expose a fraud, if one does exist. We think that maybe they are just a little hitter against the NHL for reasons that have nothing to do with the problems they are digging up and are attempting to gain a type of per- sonal satisfaction and aren’t as sincere as they paint them- selves, I. the case of George Hayes we think it was down-right fool- ishness the way he raved about not wanting to have to take an eVe test, because it was his work on the ice that determined his worth; well if his eyes were good he had nothing to lose and in a business where vision is so important we think it is neces- sary for the league to have some guarantee of the capabilities of the referee’s eyesight. Clarence Campbell has said that he isn’t going to do anything about the charges that Powers has made because it was all thrashed out last year and Powers hasn't anything new to jus- tify doing it all over again. We feel that these reports are seri- out enough that Mr. Campbell should have this situation cleared up and prove the accusation one way or the other. By simply just allowing thesg_pevple to rave on we think there is danger of the general public connecting a certain ‘smell’ with the National Hockey League. This observer thinks that if the reports are false than some- thing could and should be done by ans of the law, to silence anyone creating publicity detrimenfal to the image of the NHL in the public eye.
