It appeared last evening that everyone in the rink was continually pull- ing at pipe or cigarette, Bo dense was the smoke at the end of the first period that play Id not be followed, At the nd of the second period the players could not be distinguish. ed. During the final period the smoke was so dense that it was uncomfortable for the play- ers and affe@ed their playing. Apart from the danger that heavy smoking in such a struc ture occasion, the practice is a most obnoxious one at all times, spoiling as it does the view of the game, If the management cannot enforce a "no smoking" rule then police should be re- quested so to do. The habit of smoking at a hockey game is what is termed in sporting cir- cles as "small town stuff." It should be immediately stopped. "Since telegraph last Tuesday to the! have | evening wires Calgary been kept hot all in an effort to| learn from that western city just! what Wilfred Hills did in the hockey line when he went west," says the | Port Hope Guide. "When the ap- | plication was made to the O.H.A. for a certificate for Hills, the Port Hope club was informed that they would have to produce evidence from the Amateur Association in Calgary to show that Hills was still simon pure amateur. In order to have the mat- ter settled in time for last night's game it was necessary to do all cor- responding by telegraph, a rather expensive form when you have to Bo as far west as Calgary." The first message was sent on Tuesday. There being no reply up to Thursday a second one was sént and then a third, and Thursday eve- ning a wire was received from the President of the Alberta Amateur Assodiation stating that upon in-/ vestigation it was found that Hill's trip to Calgary had in no way im- paired his amateur standing. This information was immediately con- veyed to Mr. Hewitt of the O.H.A. and a telegram has since been re- ceived from that official to the ef-| feet that Hill's certificate would go PA ot Hints On Playing : Basketball through and that he would be eligi- + i --------i--i-- ble for last night's game." r --r-- THE OVERHAND PASS The overhand pass is exccuted by raising the ball high over and a Back With Petes ttc to the back of the head.
