THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5, 1021, In the World of Sport {HOCKEY CLEAN-UP i ACROSS THE BORDER | Started When Pittsburg Club i Refused Right to | 3 Run Wid. Toronto World: The step taken by | the Ontario Hockey Association in | putting the clamps on the touring players is the most important move | made by the big association in many | years, It was a move that has been | badly needed and should have been made a few years ago. Had it been | delayed until next season it would | have been all the harder. The fair- minded sportsmen and the real ama- téur players look upon it as a step that will not only strengthen the hold of amateur hockey in Ontario, but will strengthen every other sport. True, a few hockey players will have to watch the games from the side- lines this season, but these players are not of the calibre to improveghe standard of play. It will teach them a lesson--a lesson that sporting abi- lity is second only to business ability. They tried to get along in this world on the strength of their ability to perform on the ice and were success- ful in getting away with it for a few years. Now, however, they are clamp- ed down and clamped down tight. Those who move legitimately be- tween seasons are not barred. There are many in this class. That the governing body of ama- teur hockey in the United States are bound to clean the game up across the border is shown in their recent action against the Pittsburg rink ma- nagement. Hockey over the way has been in a sorry mess for years. The teams were made up of "migrating" players from Canada who did not go Rovers 1. day 1.

They will take about ten men to"the Ohio city. St. Patrick's have made an offer to Goalkeeper Reed, of Calgary. He is sald to be the best player in his position in the west. The Stratford Midgets are feel- ing the loss of the services of Ryto- mer, who is unable to secure a yl ers certificate, 'very keenly. Reports that Malone, Heaton and one other-Parkdale Canoe Club | junior player are over age will likely | be investigated by at least one local | club. It was a hard blow for the Brant- | ford intermediate team when Thorn- ton, their big defense man, was re- fused a players' certificate. The | residence rule disqualified him. Glenn Smith, formerly of Dentals, and whose suspension has been | raised -by the O.H.A., turned out with Argonauts last night. He will| not be in condition for some time. The Hamilton N.H.L. team will | wear odd uniforms in future. The jerseys will carry stripes running up | and down and one stocking will be | all black and the other all yellow.

Seventeen years and more has this condition been in order in the United States. The stand of Roy Schooley, a former Canddian and well-known in hockey nere, is one to be commended. It will strengthen, the ties between Canada and the United States in the matter of hockey. And it will ultimately re- sult in international contests with I'nited States teams visiting Canada. Of course, it cannot be expected that the United States body will clean things all up in one season. There are heavy seas ahead of the amateur hockey ship, but the first step in the right direction has been made and it the ship is kept in the proper course, the por: of success will be reached in time. One thing badly needed over the border is the inclusion in their league of a junior series. Hockey will never be a wonderful success until they develop their own local players.
