for one year at the time of the meeting it was not known hown many games he had actually played for the erin team so before any derision is ree- xbed by proaident george louth an inrveatl fatlon by the president him- eau is being carried oul th combines did not drees hainss for sundays came which they droppad to smith and stone st when uainaa cot word action may be taken acainst him for play ing with erin he immediately in formed erin he would not be able to play for them anymore as he didnt want to be ruled out of the town leaug adwsys e top per former and one of the league s top ewers it will be s loss to the league as well as the combines ii action is taken again mm erin called up on him early in the season to play for them and they were going to enter in the ontario hurst hockey league as a rural team there is nothing in the rules of the league here to prevent s plsyer from play ing for such and 11 may been that lfatncs figured he was not break ing any rules by playing there but h se erin made the switch from rural to junior d after they got going and this is the point the league wish to clear up it ull de pend on whether hrm flayed more than three games junior with halnea in the line- up if he has played more than three games the rule says he is out but if he play ed aay three gomes with erin as a rural team and three games as a junior team he would be allowed to play in this league providing he doesnt play another game for erin on the other hand if he has play ed four games as a junior for erin and only 2 gnmea as rural he has broken the rule it wns noticeable at the meeting the other membcri of the executive did not want to rule too hastily in this case haines has always been a good sport snd a keen competi tor and it is very unlikely he would deliberately break the rules to show hds good faith to his team and the lesgue he left the erin club to devote his talent to his own team if thla league and the combine didnt mean anything to him it isnt likely he would give up jun ior hockey to play here the league has a hard enough time keeping the top notch player from going to the intermediates and other oha clubs so why let a play go lf be

commuters who arc tied for second placv with the warriors miithy in goal for warriors had a rough afternoon and tom wylle hcljed mukc it that way wylle up until this yiar was always top or close to it
