SPORTS FRONT By PIS CALLAGHAN PRESIDENT Clarence Campbell of the National Hockey League as surely enlightened us on NHL matters. We weré unaware that there was no protest of a National ‘zy League game until Mr, Campbell issued a statement Thursday ‘night. The statement came aiter Sid Abel, Detroit Red Wings’ coach, had queried the NHL prexy regarding Eddie Pow- ssing whether test could be ate vseched Pawers to the Aik ‘and prociaimed that ‘Bathe was the o'fevded player and was Iherefore enttied to the penalty shot. If Bathgate was the offend- wane, hen were is, no question that # was abeoately right in giving Andy the ake oe SassTowever, listening to the game we were told by the New York amsouncer that Prentice was the victim of the offence. ts from oa given Bathgate the penalty shot because he was the last man to touch the Fase. See Boome’: mos sono: ee, book Det perhaps we are away off base. IF NO Détroit player touched the rubber after Prentice was fouled, < is ot to see why the play wouldn't be whistled down The Rangers were still on the attack and some other ‘New Vorksers might might beat the Detroit lie. Apparently Bathgate did touch the disc after Prentice but was it Bat Prentice that pl offended. Howe" ers states~ Bathgate was the offended player a * is Judgment. Nobody can bed with Eddie His fre ‘i = on matters of judgment. “wnat does annoy is that utterance from Mr. Campbell ‘that NHL games as mas played on the ice ont ‘This would indicate that no matter how many errors in interpretation were made by ar the teams would have no ere recall a few years ago when a NHL referee made a hor- rible mistake on a penalty shot. He had awarded it to the Bruins but ae wea ft» the oonosine bench and hed them decide what Bruin would try his luck. The Bostonians had Bronco Horvath ready and waiting to de the trick but Bronco neve r got ‘he chance. At esult missed the scoring crown by something like one point that season. As it turned out, Bruins won the game anyway and there was to protest. at had ge A lost, according to Mr. Campbell, the would have no appeal. This sounds really ridiculous but you mvt very well diepute the ruling of the NHL boss, Hard To Figure IT’S tough losing tight hockey games, especially when a great deal is at stake. However, if you should lose them with ine elo of faulty interpretation of the rules by officials, it will Imake you feel all the wor We are led to believe that NHL officials can make wrong Jscisions and. that the team olfended can't do a thing about them, We are not talking about matters of judgment but soley of interpretation matters, The whole thing is a real revel to a whole lot of other hockey fol Of course, a referee can be fired when he he pulls ‘boners’ but that’s not much help to a team that has suf! use of in- ompelent officiating. ion to us and we are sure PERHAPS Mr. Campbell has been misquoted, However, ey canadian Press story is most emphatic and states that M age 3G says there is no such thing as a protested decision the N M:.
