Conlirms Major Hockey Series This Year By Jack Sullivan (Canadian Press Staff Writer) Remember that super-duper Ma- jor Hockey Series for Selected senior teams that was adopicd, and then promptly ditched. by "W Canadian Amateur Hockey As- sociaticn last summer? Well,. it is very much alive and kicking. although a bit dog-earcd from its original proposals. And it took the c. A. H. A. iusr three months and two days to make their (urn-about-face ol- iiclal. It seems they ”forgot" to make the official announcement when the decision was taken last July 24 in Toronto. This Major Series as it is known has been kicked around by the Association officials in the Mari- times, Ontario and Western Can- ads the last couple of months but no indication was given by the top brass that the thing was on. That is, until today. It remained for secretary-mam ager George Dudley of Midland. Ont., to clear the air. Just re- turned from Europe, Dudley said in a telephone interview from his home the series "definitely is on.” President Doug Grimston of New Westminster. B.C., queried on sta- tus of the Major Series the last month. declined to say anything until Dudleyis return to Canada. The last official word on the series was issued the night of July 24 after the C. A. H. A. ex- ecutive met Clarence Campbell. National Hockey League president. A joint statement said the scheme had been "deferred for the pre- sent." A couple of hours later, the amateur body's executive met again, decided to go ahead with the series - and kept mini about t The big change is that players in the series from the Cape Bre- ton. Maritimes. Quebec, Ontario !and Western Canada Leagues will not be under contract. Originally. terms called for a minimum salary of 91.000 a year to all players in the series and various waiver and draft clausesglmiiar to N. H. L. contracts. The C. A. H. A. executive back- ed down in a hurry and issued its "deferred" statement when Cam-p- bell pointed out that in all prob- ability the amateurs would be dealing with players who already had the finger put on them by N. H. L. teams. The contract pro- posals were dropped in the en- suing executive session. The Major Series will carry a special trophy - an announce- ment on this is expected in a few days - thus relegsting the Allen Cup. traditional symbol of senior hockey supremacy in Canada. to a minor-league status. From here in. the 42-year-old Allan Cup will be open to weak- slsler clubs and leagues who have been cluttering up the senior plsydowns for years with little or no hope of winning the trophy. it still remains the prize 9 got series, which will be oper. brother of Cobey Mccloskey ho ' for the . y Canadian senior chesnpionship.

Some of his best boys will not be available for play this year, he says. but he hopes there will be eome young fellows coming up to take their places. The Summerside High School teams, both boys and girls, will regret to hear that their coach. Jack Murphy. has been posted to Aylrner, Ontario. Jack was a great help to the studenta' teams, and was never too busy to help the youngsters along. Jack will be missed in the realm of baseball too. He was the first baseman of the Curran dc Briggs ' ' s. Maritime champs. and played his very best baseball in the series with the Charlottetown Knights of Columbus. and with the St. John Kinsmen. Jack expressed regret at leaving the town. "Every. one treated me swell here,” he said, "and the town grows upon a person. The longer you're here. the better you like it." Hockey exclteme t in Summer- slde centres around our amazing Islanders so far. There is absolute- ly no talk of local endeavour as yei.' The "Rlnkless Town of the Mariilmes" hits little background to inspire enthusiasn for begin- ning plans for the winter's hoc- key, but no doubt something will be done. at least for minor hockey before Christmas rolls around. The Kinsmen have always looked after that department, and done it very efficiently, so we leave the future of the klds' hockey in their capable hands. in order to make this column a respectable length, we have com- posed a little song entitled "The Big Four Polka".
