.9110ti IMPOSITOR, SEAFORTK ON T4 .1AtiL s 11/70
The recent decistori by, Canada's Amateur Hockey
Association to withdraw the National Hockey Team from
international competition has been cheered by Canadians
from coast to coast.
After nearly 15 years of disillusionment with .
international hockey, 'Earl, Dawson, president of the
CAHA stood before a, meeting in Geneva, Sunday, and
said, "We Quit!".
The decision, apparently, was known in the in-
ner circles of Hockey Canada and the CAHA for more than
a week. Increased pressures on the team representatives
and alleged sabotage of the 1970 World Hockey Tournament
here, left the CAHA with no alternative.
While it is unfortunate that the country %tIchgaye
birth to hockey, produces the World's best players, and
proudly refers to the game as Canada's National Sport,
will no longer compete internationally, it was felt that if
Canada was not being permitted to ice its best, as others
certainly do, then why continue to compete with a lesser
entry. "'
The Canadian public, and the organization.known as
Hockey Canada, formed late in 1968 ,to sponsor. the
National Hockey team, had become increasingly dis-
tressed at the plight of., the Nationals. 'They gave full
support to the CAHA decisionS.
Most certainly the international tournaments will
be little better than second class events without the
• Canadian entry.
Hopes-for Canada's National team had been rising
steadily since the innovation of Hockey Canada late last
year.
Under the president, Charles Hay, this group of
political , business and interested hockey men, began
moving towards providing stronger representatiortfor
Canada.
Last July the delegation applied to the Inter-
national Ice Hockey FederatiOn fOr an open tournathent in
1970 with plans to enter a professional team.
This proposal was turned down by IIHF delegates.
However, an agreement was' finally reached, allowing
Canada, the use of 'nine professionals, providing none
had played in the NHL during the 1969-70 season.
That decision in Canada's favour, was reached
when J.F. (Bunny) Adhearne, IIHF president, cast the
deciding vote...to-break a 25 - 25 tie.
The C Swedes and Russians openly opposed the
decision and have openly opposed the tournament,'
schedules and everything relevant to the tournament -
until this,time. •
As the Canadian Nationals improved and with
the added strength of the professionals, the hopes of
a victory for Canada in the tournament were high. They
played a five game exhibition series with the Czechs and
posted two wins and a tie. Next they played the Russians
and for the first time in nine yearS they were victorious
over them.
. The single most impressive game .against the
Russians was the -final match' in which the :Montreal
Junior Canadiens, bolstered by several minor league
profeSsionals, drubbed the 'Ruskies 9 - 3 and sent them
packing off home to Moscow.
At this time, when Canadians hopes were 'Ilighest,
A hearne•,called an emergency Meeting of the countries
involved iin :the 1970 touraament, He ,anyeuriced that he
had been warned by Avery Brundage, president of the
Olympic committee, that anyone playing against or
with the professionals in the tournament would be
declared ineligible to compete in the Olympics in '72.
The-outcome of the meeting, of course, was that
the original decision to allow the Canadians •the use of
professionals was rescinded and „that's when Canada
.'quit.
The Canadians charged the Russians and Swedes
with sabotaging the 1970 tourney. Ahearne charged
Canada, with "acting like' a. little
.
who had loSt his
candy".,
Shortly after Canada pulled out it was announced ,,
that Sweden would host the tournament and the U.S:
would move up from the 'B' pool to take Canada's place.
Despite the charges of Aliearne, Canada, by
its stand, has 'gained favour in the eyes of the World.
Their decision to oppose and 'question the validity of
- an outdated Olympic code which discriminates .against
seine countries and allows others a free hand may
well mark the -beginning of some long overdue changes
in the Olympic and International Competition rules.
• Canada is the first to stand. up, to the dictorial
-leadership of the .hearne-Brundage combine which
has governed international sports for 15 years.

, Following -the announcement that Canada would
