Hockey prospects were not rî h he said and a number of Coo rglthetes ere gio ng cise- For Bowmanville, Mr. Patterson stateý,d that that club favored the firstc of the ye ar rules as it would defeat players' plans for moving about. Leaside could not corne in-under the January first rule as that place bas a housing problem, accommoda- tion flot being -available. Even the residence rule of May l5th would flot apply to Leaside. Peterboro wants the January first rule, according to Manager Solomon. Mr. Duff, speaking for the Belle- ville Club, the G., T. R., expressed favor for the January- first rule. "It is pýroper if we want to encouragel home players", Mr. Nott 'stated that the O. A. B. A. plan to lkaye ah 'clubs conf ormn to the January 'frst rule might mean Tefusal of amatour carda to players flot in residence7,.- This would have an effect on bhe-teams. At the next meeting of the O. A. B.A. it might bc made retroactive,- to take effect January first., Mr. Lockington of Port Hope fav-1 ored the May l5th date as Port Hope -and Coboirg couldneot carry import- ed play,,ers from the first of the year owing to the difficulty of getting themy postions, He asked if it was flot better to sacrifice playing i the, O.
