H. L. meeting Saturday in Toronto would be ar- ranged. \ it is understood that some of the players have made affidavits supporting the charges that a cer- tain player on the Canadians team openly threatened to put them out of commission on Mon- treal ice. The Canadiens returned from Hamilton with two more casualt- ies added to tho French team's al- ready long list of injured players. Odie Cleghorn and Howie Morenz are the two. Cleghornls right knee is in very bad shape and he was taken to Dr. l-lolllday immediately after the players got off the train and reports this morning were that water was forming on one of his knees while the arteries and musc- les of tho other leg were badly bruised and battered. Howie Mor- eifl- received a two inch cut just below the lcft ankle in the sec- ond period of tho Hamilton-Canad- icns game and he was sent by Man ager Leo Dandiirand immediately after the game to his home in Stratford so that ho could be giv- en proper caro and avoid a night and day on the train where ho could not receive proper medical attention. Morenz refused to take oft his boot during the interval be- tween the second and third period for fear that the foot would swell and that he could not put on his boot again. Iodine was poured through the cut of his boot and a layer of cotton spread over it and then bandaged with adhesive plas- ter, Morenz played out the third period. Billy Bouchefs injury seems to be getting more serious every day and he was on the ice only a short time in Hamilton. Many injuries. lt is seldom that so many injur- ies have happened in such a short period to the same club in the same season and the Canadien's management is sure up against it. Canadians started out the season with one of the best balanced teamg that ever wore the red white and blue. The players are not los- ing hcart and are still confident that if they get their share of the bfflflkg the team will be battling in the play-off. Coutu is expected to play in a short time and it will be known tomorrow exactly on what date he will line up with _his team. ‘ Manager Dandurand when seen this morning declared that he was dumfounded at the charges made against his club and players by the Ottawa Club. "it is the most preposterous charge that I havo over heard and the old time hockey players that attend the Canadians games rog- ularly at the Mount Royal Arena 1 .1».

REYNOLDS Canada appears up tin arm: over an elleqed raid of the Old Dominion by the United Staten to sccurc its star hockey players. Boston is claim- cdto bc the worst offender. lti is charged, if this wholesale importation to the States is stopped, that within a fcw years the class of hocke be supcnlor to that lin Canada. Furthermore, will be Canadian boys. Those that have the game moat at heart across the border consider theprobiem a serious one, and that the longer it is permitted to go on without check by the Canadian amateur authorities, just an much bigg- er will the task become some day. ' not y in this country will that: the stars of our hockey QUESTION AMATEUR STANDING .What is more. in order to bolster up some of the teams here, Canadian pmfcsslonalg are being offered salaries to play on our amateur clubs. Ottawa as farcical and childish but now they have to be checked oe-i fore they disrupt professional hock I ey. The Canadian Hockey Club. handed Ottawa the championship last season by suspending two of our host players in the play-off. It was a hard thing for us to do to suspend and fine two of our best men and for the management of our club to give up what l and the players had strivcd for two years to attain. We realized then that we were not bigger than the game itself, something we know still. “Any tlmo something has to be done for hockey every one connec- ted with the Canadiens will for- get all petty differences and he to the fore. Pennants and champion- ships are a second consideration with us, but I am confident that- we will never stoop to blacken and demoralize our opponents to attain them. “As manager of Canadians i have neither apprr ‘r ' President Calder nor any oflicials of the Tor- ontoand Hamilton clubs to get he- hind me at tomorrow's meeting in Toronto. I ain leaving the whole matter in the hands of the Presi- dent and the other two clubs. Should these silly and unfounded charges and sustained filthy pro- paganda triumph ‘tho National v“... Hockey League would be in a bad way. l am confident this will not ho the case. I entertain no fears and ask no favors.” "riliiils PLAY OFF ON Y ALLEYS Y. M. C. A.

" ‘Billy’ Bell, for years a professional piaycr, yesterday reported that he had been offered 6100 and expenses by a Boston amateur club to play two games there. Bell has no amateur card, but it is reported that follow- ing the ruling whereby Dave Campbell, a former professional. was . .rc- ccntly restored to amateur standing, hc would press for his amateur card Bell has not played in a couple of seasons.

TORONTO HAS ITS VIEWS Hers is the way a Toronto paper look; at it: “Why are so few first class senior hockey players being developed in Toronto? And that statement might well cover other portions of ..the province and Dominion as wcll a; Toronto. Some might say that ..thc statement of high-class boys not being developed ls wrong. But no proof is forthcoming for such a remark. Certainly there is plenty of hockeyi bslrfl played in Toronto's outdoor and indoor rinks. But out of that great URE so T0 an.

Under present conditions it .is nearly impossible to make notes and follow a fixture closely from the “boards" as spectators are nat- urally as anxious to see what's go- ing on as well as reporters.

PLENTY 0F MATERIAL But the point ia that last year there were 8000 or more boys playing under the jurisdiction of the Toronto Amateur Hockey Association. Prior to last year that figure was not reached, but still tho mark was not m behind. Those boys started perhaps in the midget. They worked up your by year to higher series. Few of them actually pave up hockey. But ‘the question is where have they gone to? True, many are playing with in- dustrial and club teams throughout the city. But in the main those are boys not good enough for senior competition. Then comes back the same question; Where arc the few high-clans boys who are bound’ - to come out of such development gone to? “Take 8000 players under the T. A. H. A. Out of that surely smart players could bc found to make real seniors. Yet they arc not found. la it that the development i; not good enough, or in it because they have migrated to the States or to other parts of the Dominion? 0r is it that because of so much ‘industrial and commercial hockey of the past few years the boys feel it l5 their duty to play with their fellow- employces and stay away from the O. H. A.? Summed up, it looks like a case of a little of each. 24 OTHER FEEL PINCH _ "Montreal is in the same position. So l; Winnipeg. Montreal is npw complaining that Boston teams are making Montreal the Mecca of seci r- ing hockey players for the Bean Town. Some star Montreal players havo already gone to Boston.
