Tropose Hockey Rink For Kids At Victoria Park A propoul to erect o natural ice rink at Memorial Park in order to give the childreri of the city a bet- ter opportunity to indulge in hoc- lnsy and skating was given it's first hearing before the Charlotte- town Rotary Club at the Weekly iunsheon yesterday in the Char- lottetown Hlotol. A resolution calling for consider- stion d the proposal at a. special club Assembly next Monday even- ing was moved by Mr. F.A. Large, Upp Q.C.. Chairman of the Boys Work Committee and seconded by Mr. Russell Seller. Chairman of the Community Service Oommittee. Both speakers stressed the need for more adequate provision for boys and girls in this respect, pointing out that under present conditions some children were unable to be on the ice for more than fifteen minutes once a week and there was practically no time available for instruction. er Freetown Wins Trophy At School Sports Upper Freetown School racked up . total of as points to win the Bedcque Rink Trophy at the school sports which were held Bi-deqiie last Wednesday evening.

Sunday night when the Sydney executive announced that they were through the announce- ment was received with a certain amount of reservation because the Millionaires had done the same thing it year ago. This time, how- ever, it looks like the real McCoy. Islanders Club President Frank MacDonald had a telephone con- versation with M.M.H.L. Presidt-nt C. Roy MacDonald last night. The Cape Breton MacDonald reported that the Millionaires definitely ap- peared to be out. . - . The M.M.HL. President had just Iraiurned from the Sydney camp when he made the statement. There doesn't appear to be any group in the Steel City who will assume the responsibilities of re- organizing the club. Art Lipton, a big man in the Sydney picture for the past season or two, is not overly anxious to give it another try. He lost a considerable am- ount of his own money for his efforts but was fortunate enough to get most of it back through lot- teries and other means. Now that he is back on firm ground he ap- parently doesn't want to take an- other chance. 0 0 I The only chance that Major League hockey will survive depends upon New Glasgow, Moncton or Dartmouth. There have been re- ports that Moncwn migdit enter the M.M.l-l.L. again but these ap- pear to be unfounded and could be dismissed. Dartmouth were unable to raise the kind of money needed for Major Hockey last summer and can be counted out. New Glasgow is the only centre that might give it ti try and according to Frank MacDonald they are considering picking up the Sydney franchise. . ,. . This means that New Glasgow would have the right to the Syd- ney players of last season from whom they could select several good players. The work of secur- ing players was one of the ob- stacles which stopped New Glasgow from entering the league last summer. It New Glasgow falls to take the Sydney franchise then the M. M. H. L. will fold because neither Charlottetown or Halifax would try it on a three team cir- cuit although Glace Bay would be willing to give it a,whirl although not very happy about it. I O O A four team setup with Char- lottetown, Halifax, Glace Bay and New Glasgow would make for a much better league from a Char- lottetown standpoint than that which we had last year. The long trip to Sydney would be abolished and replaced by a 30-minute hop to New Glasgow. In addition Glace ;Ba,v would have all the hockey trans in that area to draw from and should pack in good crowds at iltheir home games. - If the M.M.H.L. folds there is always the possibility that the llslanders might compete in- ihe New Brunswick Senior League and "play in Allan Cup competition. .The Islanders executive sounded out the New Brunswick teams last ,summer and were welcomed by i Fredericton and Saint John. Mono- 'ton, who had no executive at the lime. did not make a reply. I s s s p At the moment the hockey pic- .lure is quite a muddle. (:oac IBucko Trainer and Club Presideii. MacDonald were to leave this week tan a scouting trip for players "but will shelve their plans now until after the meeting in New Glasgow on Saturday. Playing coach Dug- ger MacNeill of Halifax and vice president Harry Butler of the Hai- ifax executive who are now in Montreal, are being forced to can- cel their immediate plans. 0 I 0 Henry 0'Shea, a pretty fair hockey, football and -basketball player for Saint Dunsf.an's and the Navy several years ago is back in the City from Calgary, Alberta on a three weeks holi- day. O'Shea, who doesn't take an active part in athletics except to play a few games of softball, has developed into an enthusiastic booster of Canadian football. s a s His only complaint about the game is one that is common to hockey fans here. He claims that calibre of football has advanced a great deal in the past few years while the calibre of the officials has not. As a result the game suffers considerably from poor officiating: He says the some thing holds through for the Western Hockey League where the players are allowed to get away with niurder. O I 0'Shea is a geologist with a Western oil company. The possib- ility of suffering an injury which would keep him out of work pre- vent: him from playing much sport. While hora he was a goal- o .

Boswell, a graduate of Dal- housie University, Halifax, was the only four-letter man in the history of the University. He was intercollegiate finalist in his weight class in boxing in 1949 and on several occasions won the 440-yard and R80-yard Maritime championships in track and field. He played intercollegiate football and hockey. Irvin Shows MONTREAL, (C?)-Coach Dick Irvin, usually a dour pessimist at the outset of every season. climb- ed out on a limb Monday and said he believes his 1953-54 Mont- rcal Canadicns will be stronger in every position when the. Na- tional Hockey League schedule opens Oct. 8. He made the prediction as he watrhed his Canadiens, 1052-53 winners of the Stanley Cup. take the ice at the Montreal Forum for the opening of the fail train- ing camp. . ”We have more proven talent on hand this year ever before." said Irvin. ”I we'll be stronger in every tion." A total of 33 players turned out for a "loosening up skate." Among them was Jean Groa Bill Belivesu, starry centre of Quebec Aces in the Quebec Hockey Loa- zuc. Beliveau, considered a top- noirh prospect for the NHL. scored fivc goals in two games while playing with Canadians on a lend-lease hasls last year. Beliwau and Canadiens still are trying to reach terms on a ronirart. A few years ago while playing with Quebec Arcs in the Quebec Senior Hockey League. Be-llveau signed a contract under which he agreed that any pro- fessional hockey he played would be for Canadiens or for a team NI-ll. than think posi- chnsen liy them. The QSI-I1. decided several months ago to become a full- fledged professional league. One Canadien official said Beli- venu is in the position where he will have to play professional hockey for Canadians, retire from the game or play amateur hockey in some bush league. The betting is that Belivesu and Canadiens will come to terms before the season starts. Irvin said most of ih,e'playcrs reported in tip top shape. f'We have right now. the best set of right and left wingers in hockey today," said Irvin. "There isn't a club anywhere that has the depth and quality that we have in those two polstions." The right wingers are Maurice Richard, Boom Boom Geoffrion. Floyd Curry. Eddie Lltzenberger, Lorne Davis, Eddie Slowinskl and Joe Lund. On the left side are Bert Olmxtead, Dink Gamble. Paul Megcr, Di&(le Moore, Cslum MacKay, Gaye.Stewart and Eddie Mazur.

Suggests changes In coronation ceremony LONDON, '(GPi--Round Table. a quarterly specializing in Common- wealth affaiirs, Saturday renewed in call for greater Commonwealth participation in the coronation ceremony. And it got immediate editorial support from the influential Man- chester Guardian. 4 Round Table suggests that the ceremony of homage to the sover- eign should bo removed from Weetr minster Abbey and take place, in- stead, in neighboring Westminster Hall, which would provide much more space. In the hall the magazine says, the sovereign could receive the ihomage of spokesmen for all his or her realms and territories. Speaking of the "majestic ta.b- 'lc:iu" in Westinghouse Abbey, Round Table adds that "among the glittering groups of great per- sons in velvet and minviver who surround her the Queen there was not one to stand for any of the great nations overseas which owns her away." The Round Table article prompt- ed the Manchester Guardian to comment that "serious study" should be made of suggestions for revision of the coronation core- mony to allow greater participa- tiion by Commonwealth representa- ves.

We still feel sure about this. but 'we feel equally sure that his ap- pointment did not change the com- plexion on that final series with I-folman's one iota. Mathesorrs work was good. certainly as much as we saw of it. and we heard no serious complaints, only the com- monior garden variety of clap- trap, 'to which every umpire in this land of free and pictruesque speech falls heir. O 0 After a six-year stretch of,faii- ure to annex an intermediate championship no one can be- grudge Charlottetown the glory of their hard and squarely w-on victory. We hope the M.C.A. club goes on to further conquests and we feel that Summerside fans will be rooting for them to cop the Maritime title. 0 ' O C We heartily sympathize with the Junior Abbios,v too, in the fact that the drain of players strength exacted by the call of the univer- sities and hockey schools wealnened them to the point where they felt going after further honors would be it. hopeless effort. After hearing of these first two games between Lewisville and Citron and Briggs over the week-end. we think most people have been 0ve!'-estimating the strength of the two Islands Junior clulx this summer, If C. dz B. can give Lewisville such a close run for honors, it is reason- able to suppose that the Abbies Juniors would have. at least. had an even chance to beat the Lewis- ville ball club in a best-of-seven series. They might then have gone on to annex I Maritime crown, and it seems too bad this oppor- tunity was denied them. ' . . . There's a problem for a Marl- time baseball executive, if one is ever organized. Should not these inter-provincial play-offs be sched- uled early enough to permit boys returning to schools and collges to participate? The best baseball weather is over anyway before these series get under way. . . .

This Is two years in a row for Svmmerslde. and speaks well for the coaching they have received. O I C The Curran an Briggs boys came home with glowing accounts of the work of Brianrllewls in the nut- field for G. A: B. in that first game. When a sports writer suggested some time ago that in his opinion Lewis was the best outfielder in the Island league. we were a bit skeptical We felt that there were four or five among whom it would be hard to chose for first honors. But since seeing Lewis in that final series with I-Iolman's we're willing to admit he is definitely tops. This boy made some circus catches at Queen Elizabeth Park that would be hard to dttnlirate. . . . Now that George's Gala are slated to play hederlctzon for the Maritime title next Saturdaf in Fredericton. we think the very best. practice they can get this week is to take on Andv's Aces for the championship of the Summer-side league.

MONTREAL, (GP) - The new, Hockey League launches its 1953-54 cam- paign Oct. 10 as an eight-team loop. including an entry from the United States. Known as the Quebec Senior Hockey League before turning pro last spring, the circuit opens I. '10-game schedule at Ottawa with the most-recent addition, spring- field Indians, playing with the Sen- atora. The club owners of the then Q SI-IL voted to become professional. on a par with the Western Hoc- key League, May 12. In turning, pm, the new QSHL. severed connec- tions with the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association and the gov- erning Canadian Amateur Hockey Association. The initial split with the CAHA came about when the CAI-IA re- fused -to recognize a playing certi- ficate granted a. player by the Q AHA, which the QAHA insisted had been issued in full accord- ance with CAHA regulations. The QAHA was then suspended, for defying the governing body emit a deadline was set for leagues, clubs and players within the Que- bec association to make known their intention of remaining with the CAHA or also face suspension. A few days before the general" suspension went into effect. the QSHL resigned from the QAHA. The National Hockey League then extended protection to the QSHL's players list. The decision to turn pro" means that the new QSHL. now the QHL. receives 310,000 for s.'drafted play- er, compared with the previous arrangement of 33.000 from a minor pro club and 35,000 from the NHL. Springfield. Mass. was admitted into the new pro loop a short time , ago. The Indians were in the East- . em U.S. league last season.
