But, I guess die young Mait Stockwell didn't have any culture To exchange, - at least not as much as today's eight-year-PW. JUST ONE thing bothers us, however. How do these kids manage to duck school so very suc- cessfully in order to attend these 'dway' games? When we usedjo go‘AWOL from grade school Minor Hockey, oii the whole, IS doing a fine job and one only has to look at the past weekend, locally, to seelhe good work being done. - they med to call if ' 'cultural exchange'. "As far as we know," explained team coach Ernie (House of Denim) Neely, "we have gone through all the proper procedures for this trip. Our league ends March 15 so there won't be confliction with the playoffs. The boys will be well looked after while in California, and the proper finances have been raised. We hope, too, that the CAHA and MTHL continue to take their present stand - for we have never had much faith in the method of operation displayed by SOME organizers. -What we REALLY hope is that Minor Hockey does not continue to suffer for the actions of SOME of those organizers _ - .

They have only dropped a couple of games in 38 outings. The boys compete in a North YorkB4 division where they lead their league quite handily. The Northwest organization provides hockey for some 400 youngsters in house league, North York and MTHL competitions. Naturally, we hope that by the time this paper hits the street, Neely and his young charges will have received the 'go ahead' signal from the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association. We hope also, (although we can't understand why such a trip is necessary), that the boys of Don Valley get to see Finland. "We expect to receive CAHA sanction, but if we dop't,, - we will want to know why! '/ _ A side interest for the youngsters is the fact the arena they will play in was built by Charles Schulz of Peanuts and Charlie Brown cartooning fame. THIS DOESN'T seem to be the case where the Northwest Boys' Club is concerned, Again, at this time of writing the North York organizers are awaiting official sanction from the CAHA for a proposed 'cultural exchange' and trip to Santa Rosa, California. These hockey nine-year-olds will play a few games against clubs of the Northern California Hockey Association. Some li boys plus eight adults will jet to San Francisco by way of Vancouver, March.4. Upon arrival they will be picked up by their hosts of Redwood Empire Arena and taken to Santa Rosa. While in Santa Rosa, the boys will be billeted in private homes while the adults book into hotels. No organization as large as the CAHA or MTHL should be expected to operate without rules, schedules and procedures. It would have been a simple matter for the Don Valley organizers to have made application for per- mission to make their trip. They would have been expected to show proof that such a trip could not prove harmful to their boys, their league, or to their opposition. Gordon Juckes, CAHA executive director claims there are many reasons why teams have been refused permission to travel to other countries: "We want to make sure our teams are well taken care of, that their schedules are in order and that they are guaranteed financial help. "What's wrong with this sort of top level thinking that cares for the boy's welfare?" So very often we have seen little ones forced into three and four games within a single day. plus multi travelling, so they could play in a tournament miles away and yet be back on home ice the same evening for a league game. We have seen cases where parents at the local level have not displayed as much concern for their young hockey sons. WHILE THINGS are still very much up in the air at this time of writing, regarding the 'cultural exchange' between the eight-year-olds of the Don Valley Minor Hockey Association and their Finnish counterparts, this corner continues to swing its vote in favor of the CAHA. Its no secret that affiliated CAHA teams ARE playing outside the bounds of Canada, and certainly non-Canadian teams ARE playing within our bounds. This has been done through proper application. Regardless of the "savage and senseless" charges thrust at this organizing body by the Toronto dailies, the entire potful of tempest seems to have developed out of the mismanagement and wave making of a few parents.
