" Olympic Rules I The worst part of the Olym- plc executive‘: niling which put Canada in fourth place and Sweden in second was the time it was passed. The rules should have all been settled before the first game of this year's Olympic hockey matches was played. Making rules team standings. goals for and against, etc. are almost completed is Local Hockey Series The double. double round robin (which must be almost as big as I goose) including RCAF Eva-gilets.

Certainly the Eagles Juniors Without Toy The Junior Legionaires. minus defencemen, “Toy-Toy" Gallant Don Campbell, and forward star Al Gaudet. went to O’Leary and beat the Maroons 5.4 Monday night. which indicates that the jun- for club has plenty of depth in star hockey players. Those boys might surprise a lot of fans even without their key blueline artist, Lloyd Gal- lant. As we write the Toronto Maple Leafs are reading “The Power of Positive 'I'hink.ing" as they travel to Montreal. so no Female Vs.

INTERMEDIATE “C" We don‘t know too much about the “C” teams in King's. Scores of games played during the ex- hibition season point to a close playoff round. In the em‘: series. we feel that Morell should be able to win, wi minimu difficulties. They have a strong team this year, and we look for them to go all the way. Bowling playoffs are progress- ing rapidly in Souris, with the result we've fallen behind in making our predictions. 0 u 1' three predicted winners in the Women's League all came through for us. We had mention- ed to some of the bowlers, al- though we hadn't mentioned in this column that the Top Notch- ers would beat the Touchdowns in the semi-finals. and that is ex- actly what they did.

If p ' winners win. then we call for the Night Hawks to beat the Smoke Eaters in th e semi-finals, and advance to the finals against the Perfectionists.
