raGt GHI 'THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1928 NEW AND OLD THOROUGHLY REVEIWED BY 0.H.A. rn of H-A. Referees Meet to ~~ Have Rules Made Clear Rules Are Defined for O. H.} A. Referees, Defence Area Facing Puck, Man Onside, Start on Time and Rules for the Goal Keeper The meeting of Ontario Hockey Association referees at the Prince George Hotel yesterday was the lar- gest: and most interesting held since the annual conference of O.H.A, offi: cials was inaugurated a few years ago, The duties of the referees and the rules of the game were thorough- ly explained by Secretary W, A, Hewitt, of the O.H.A, and there was a general round table discussion by those present, . The result should be a fairly uniform interpretation of the rules by the referees this Winter, It was cmphasized hy Secretary Hawitt that the referee is the official representative of the OHA, and completely in charge of the , which he is sent to handle, OHA. referees have full control of players on and off the ice, goal umpires, timekeepers and the officials connect- ed with the competing clubs, and the O.H.A. backs the referees to the limit in all legitimate circumstances, Players and club officials who abuse the referee. vocally or person ally must be reported to the associa» tion, The O.H.A, does not propose to stand for rowdyism, either from the players, those who are connected with the clubs or spectators and offenders will he severely punished. Referees were also advised that it was better not to become too friend- ly with the clubs and that refereeing was their job, and nothing else when they were in a city or town to handle a game for which they had been appointed. Defence Area Defined There is no off-side for the defend- ing team inside the 60-foot defence area, but on all face-offs the players must be on their own side of the puck. All off-side plays must be started and finished by the defending team inside the defence area, and also when the Buck is kicked by a player on the defending team it must be re- covered before it has crossed the blue line, A number of the officials were of the opinion that the player who re- ceives a pass out by the 60-foot line must carry it across the blue line himself before he can pass to a com- rade. It was decided that a player could not kick the puck across the blue line and then go and play it. Any kicking must tart and end in the 60:foot area. Another important point impress- ed upon the arbiters was that for any offside committed by the defence and which originates in the no off- side arca the puck was to be faced off at the blue line, While an off- side pass may originate as far back as the goal linc there is no off-side until it had crossed the blue line. The O.H.A. does mot propose to allow stalling or ragging the puck by teams when forced to play short- handed owing to penalties The re- ferees were instructed to make the teams play hockey, and that when they attempted to waste time to stop play:and face the puck on the offend- ing geam's goal line ten feet to side of the nets. Where and How to Face the Puck When an attacking player makes a foul or an offside mear the opposing team's net the puck is to be faced off half way between the met and the side of the rink and 15 feet away from the goal line. If the offence is made by the defenders in front of the net the puck will be faced off ten . feet directly in front of the met. This rule applies when goalkeepers on the When facing off the left side of the players must be toward their: ts' met, and they must keep | the blades of their sticks oun the ice until the referee drops the puck. A 'tripisto be considered accidental if the defending player gets his stick on the puck but if he is in such a position that he cannot. reach the puck and he then trips a puck-car- rier he has earned a ty. Play- ers hurdling must take their own chances unless checkers have been detected lifting their sticks to aid in the attacker's fall. Clubs having coaches must apply to the OHA. for permits for those tutors, A professional athlete may be allowed to act as coach and sit on the bench if he is mot receiving re- muneration for his services, and he is mot actively connected with any professional club The referees were instructed to ad- here closely to the O.H.A, rule which allows a player to skate a team-mate onside; and not to call back the play when a player is a few feet in front of the man making the ass but does not touch the puck before he is, skated onside, But loafing off-side is not to be tolerated, and a referee is to use his own judgment as to when a man is deliberately making off-side plays, If a player persists in making off-side plays he must be penalized, A point raised was whether it is oft-side when the player carrying the puck is blocked by the defence, but passes the rubber ahead of him and one of his team-mates who is behind him when he is blocked skates ahead and takes the puck, This was clearly shown to be onside, although many clubs have disputed this rul- ing 'when referees have . called it such, If the player recovering the puck is ahead of the player blocked, then it is an obvious offside, but not otherwise, Start Gantes on Advertised Time The referees were told to be at the rinks on time dnd insist' that the games start at the advertised time. Teams which do not reappear upon the ice promptly after the ten-min- ute rest between periods must be penalized, ', A player substituting 'for a goal. keeper who is penalized has all the privileges and protection extended to a goalkeeper, Players who knock the sticks out of opponents' 'hands when they are not in possession of the puck are to he penalized, and a player who deliberately boosts an opponents stick to the far end of the rink after he has dropped it on the ice will also be penalized, Referees were instructed ?to see that only those who have a right in the penalty box are allowed there. Each and every player must sign his name upon the referec's report. Pen- alty timekeepers must also keep a list of the goals scored and by whom, and these facts must be reported to the O.H.A. by the referecs. Referees are expected to penalize any player who hooks an opponent across the body or under the arms, A player who is checking a player from behind is to be permitted to hook the puck-carrier's stick or to bear down on it with his own, but he will do so at his own peril. If the stick slips up under the man's arms or slides up into his face he is to be sent to the penalty box. No Body-Checking on Forward Line The "no body-checking on the for- ward line" rule was definitely defin- , There must be no body-check- ing Ly the forwards at all out in the mid-ice section. The player must al- ways play for the puck and not the player. Body-checking is permitted by all the defending players while they are iithin their own defence area. Among the. 'points that came up was the question of what happens if, in the case of a tic game, both teams agree not to play the full overtime period as laid down in the rules. The rules state that if one team refuses to play the extra period necessary the game tp he declared a los$ for that team. It was pointed out that in the event of both teams refusing | to play extra time, each team will have a defeat scored against it. An understanding was also reach- ed governing the time of periods at games where the timekeepers are not provided with stop watches. Some of the referces in the past have ruled to play 23 minutes straight time, the only time off being for delays duc to injuries or other unforséen "causes. It was decided that all rinks be noti- fied to provide stop watches for the timekeepers, but in the event that] this is not done, referees should ar- | range with timekeepers to play al straight 25 or 27 minutes t elay For a r Another poiut not exactly covered | by the rules is in regard to the) | length of time a game can he delay- ed while substituting a goalkeeper. In} the past games have been held up| while ghe sub goaler, donned his skates and the pads of the goalkcep- er who started the game. It was| decided to permit a delay of ten minutes only under such conditions. The question of allowing a goalkgep- er to come back on the ice, again after retiring. from injurics or any other cause also was discussed. Some of the referees have ruled in the past that no further changes can be made until the cxpiration of the period. but the rules state that an injured goalkeeper be allowed back again any time play is stopped be- fore the expiration of the period in Varsity Wins in Qwertime 6 to 2 Toronto, Dec, 20,~~Memories ot pre-war hockey, when the Arena Gardens was jammed to the raft- ers for the senior OHA, struggle, were revived last night with the return of St, Michael's College tv the major competition of the amas teur ranks for, although only a sma) crowd attended, the most hr! provided as the Irigshers fell in des leat by a 6 to 2 score in overtime before 'Poronto Varsity, All the fight, flashing plays and excites ment whieh made senjor hockey the big attraction years ago, were res stored,and seldom has any crowd: in the Mutual Street rink for man years been treated to such a hect evening, } Condition alone decided the cons test, the Blue team from the Uni- versity having the stamina and re- serve strength in the overtime per- fod, The battle was even both on the play and score for thre: per- fods, but when Varsity burst through for the first score of the extra session; the Saints cracked and the Blue team piled up goals. The strain was so tepse that it was evident whichever team got the first tally in the extra time would win, for both sides were playing more on nerve than anything else in the closing periods, Everything that goes to make a good game was supplied and the fans were in an uproar most of the time. St. Michael's sorely lacked condition, it being their first game of the season, and the task was made all the harder in the third period when Freddy Miller sus- tained a deep gash over the fore- head and he was taken to the hos- pital for medical attention, Mil- ler's absence left the Irishers with only one alternate and they were almost exhausted, Varsity--Goal, Snyder; defence, Whitehead and B, Paul; Stewart; wings, Murray and Har- ley; subs, MeMullen and Clute.

The victory, which inci- entally is their second shut-out win this week, boosts the Dutch- men to within one point of the lea- gue leading Detroit Olympics and gives them a clear six point margin over Windsor, Niagara' Falls and London, who are tied for third place, Last night's game was a fine spectacle of interesting hockey with the Dutchmen earning their victory in the third period after being held in subjection through the first two periods, In fact Ni- agara had a slight edge in the early part, but they could not stop the Dutchies' final rush, The work of the rival goalkeepers was easily the featurg of the game with Beau- dry's sensational third period work giving him the call over Moore, who turned in his second perfect net-minding performance in two games and his third of the season, During the winners' third period rush Beaudry saved time after lime when the puck-carrier appar- ently had him at his mercy. Moore was forced to sensational heights to keep his record clean in the second period and he was not found wanting, saving in truly brilliant faghion, | Leather Pushes pe ODDEN SPORT SNAPSH (Boxing News) | gridiron stars, | ses so have the eri The Ontario Boxing Commission is now associated with the Nes | York Commission.
