Clarence Campbell, president of the National Hockey League, said Thursday that the league has worked out a formula that will permit Carl Brewer, 27, the former defence star with Tor- onto Maple Leafs, to join the amateur club if the Americag and Western Hockey Leagues agree to it, Only three of the 16 clubs in those leagues are based in Canada. Campbell made the comment following a meeting of NHL gov- ernors here, but would not haz- ard an opinion on how long it will take to implement the formula or exactly what the formula is, He said the governors have drafted a "revised concept of voluntary retirement" to cover this and future cases of players, 'Machine' Blocked Early Move MIAMI, Fla. (AP) -- Earl Faison joined Miami Dolphins who may still be good enough to play but want to leave pro- fessional hockey for amateur ranks, SUSPENDED BY LEAFS Brewer walked out of the Maple Leafs' training camp in 1965 and was later suspended by the club. He anndunced his intention to gain reinstatement as an ama- teur in order to play for the na- tional team last month, The Leafs agreed to lift the suspen- sion with the stipulation that he would remain their property if he ever decided to return to professiona: hockey. Campbell said all six NHL clubs are unanimously agreed that if the concurrence of the AHL and WHL is gained, they are prepared to put it into ef- fect, "It coula take monins. ii could possibly be done in two or three days if you get all the right people in the right piace at the right time." He explained that the minor '}team opposing the formula would have to have a case other than the fact they want Brewer to play for them, IT WON'T HAPPEN "No minor league club will be able to get Brewer, You can dis- miss that as something that won't happen." He said that although Toronto and Montreal Canadiens may have sentimental reasons for al- lowing Brewer to play for the Thursday and said he would have departed San Diego Charg- ers sooner except for a pro foot- ball "machine" that controls player movements, After playing out his three- year option with the Chargers, members of the American Fooge ball League, the six-foot-fivey 265-pound defensive end said he dants try to lend a hand. Despite the eagerness, Faultless Prince finished next to last in the event. (AP Wirephoto) _ Welts In Early Lead For Womens Title 'By WILL GRIMSLEY MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Mrs. David Welts of Mt.

He said uniform action is needed from all WHL and AHL clubs because, under the exist- ing rules, all professional teams must waive their. rights to a player before he can apply for reinstatement as an. amateur, The only other league in minor professional hockey, the Central Professional Hockey League, is not involved because its clubs do not own the play- ers. Brewer,' who moved from Toronto to Winnipeg where the nationals are based, has stopped practicing with the amateur club until the situation Is re- solved, LAWYER ECSTATIC Meanwhile, in Toronto Alan ,|Eagleson, Brewer's lawyer, said Aterr ta Nm eS he is "ecstatic over tne attitude,"" i "What I think will happen is that the NHL will sayyxnat any player who sits' out two years will automatically be released by the team owning his profes- sional rights, I think they make Brewer an exception because of out," Eagleson, who had threatened court action if the NHL refused to release Brewer, said he now will wait until Christmas before taking another look at possible court action.

The Leafs have listed five players as doubtful starters for Saturday night's game against New York Rangers in Toronto and may also be without the players for Sunday's return en- gagement against the Rangers in New York. Meanwhile the Canadiens, de- fending league and Stanley Cup champions, will be without left wingers Gilles Tremblay and Dick Duff for both week- end games against the rejuve- nated Boston Bruins.

Kelly is- nursing a groin in- jury while Baun has a broken thumb and Pulford hae a sore knee, BRINGS ARBOUR BACK In an effort to put some strength back on Toronto's blue line, coach Punch Imlach has called up defenceman Al Arbour from Rochester Americans of the American League. The Maple Leafs also have another problem and that is that four key players have not) yet signed contracts for the sea- son. Frank Mahovlich, the big left winger who scored 32 goals last season, scrimmaged Thursday and reported his sore ribs didn't bother him and that he would be ready to play Satur- day if he signs a contract. The other unsigned Leafs are| Pulford, Eddie Shack and centre Dave Keon Imlach has no comment to make on Toronto's contract troubles. "You'll find out Saturday] night who has signed and who hasn't," he said Thursday. HURT IN EXHIBITION Tremblay suffered a shoulder injury in an exhibition game in Montreal Wednesday night against Quebec Aces of the AHL. Tremblay's absence from the Montreal lineup will mark the fourth time in six seasons that he has not played the com- slete 70-game schedule. Moore of Vancouver shot a 77. Isa Goldschmid, the Italian captain, shot a par 72, as did Corinne Raybroeck of Belgium and Florencia Hernandez of League game.

The injuries leave the Cana- diens with only Balon and John Ferguson as regular left wing- ers. Jean - Guy Talbot may be moved up from his defence spot to fill the gap. The Bruins will be looking | their second victory of the ~-- season when they meet Canadiens Saturday night. The Bruins downed the Red Wings 6-2 in their initial game} of the season and marked the | first time Boston has won its! opening game since 1962. The Rangers, 6-3 losers to Chi- cago Wednesday night, have lots of muscle on their club but} look as though they will have to rely on some additional scoring punch from Bernie Geoffrion and a healthy Rod Gilbert to improve on their last - place finish last season.
