By the time this paper has goiae to press, the
MOSCOW SELECTS probably will be homewardbound having completed their Canadian tour of
.seven exhibition games with some of Canada's best
teams. The worst possible record the SOVIETS can
leave with is 3-3.1 or .the best at 4.2-1.
We think the RUSSIANS will be leaving our
country wearing wide grins on their faces mainly
because of the way they gained prestige in our
national game right in our own backyard. As it
turned out, the SELECTS will now be :able to :spell
out the good news of holding their own, right in the
motherland of hockey even with the teams they
played bringing in .extra help from other clubs such
as .SUDBURY, NORTH BAY, and KITCHENR diel.
To make sure they didn't go out on the limb all you
have to do is check the conditions they came over
on and the club they sent.
The first smartly devised move was making sure
that INTERNATIONAL ICE HOCKEY RULES were
developed. This sent a hub -bub into six of the seven
teases to practise the new style as WHITBY was the
only .club currently playing or. these conditions. Sec-
ondly, they didn't send their BEST TEAM into the
tour because they weren't sure what Bind of compe-
tition they would face,
With Canada supposedly tops in the hockey
world, why send the old pros? Let the younger
players make the trip for experience and keep the
prestige the BIG team now has with 'its so-called
championship to its credit. Now you may ask, if they'
did all these things, why would they send a team.
in the first place? Well, we feel that the main reason
RUSSIA sent a club over here was toget a good look
at what Canada has to offer in the way of talent
and to let her players gain in experience from
playing against them, You can look at motion hockey
picturess on the screen:. all day but you'll get more
from being on the ice playing the game against first-
class teams. Experience is the best teacher,
True, RUSSIA has cone a long way in the ice
game but not in the REAL game of hockey as we
Canadians know it. Their passing is splendid and
conditioning magnificent to watch but the way the
game is played under their rules, it sounds like a
touch rugby game where you don't have to tackle
anyone.
This Canadian Lour they've been on is just a
"farce" to this corner. We have been wondering all
along as many others in this di'sittrict have, how in the
world the RUSSIANS ever na#iaged to change the
rules of the game for their tour. In their country,
we play their respective rules with hardly any body -
checking so why shouldn't they go with our rule
book in this continent particularly if this is sup-
posed to be the home of, hockey?
We're not sending a flow of tears because
the RUSSIANS have mustered a few wins in. their
tour, but we certainly Would like to see how they
would do under the real hockey rules instead of
going, home to brag about the "kitty -by -the -door"
brand of hockey they played to win. If the RUSSIAN
hockey club did come over here, play under our
, rule book and set usback on the seatof our pants
with some victories, then I would be the first to sing
praises to them and would be able to see how they
could be classified as champions, but I definitely
can't sae how they can claim any title. the way
they're going at it!'

LOCAL HOCKEY ACTION — ILDERTON WILD-
"'" CATS Will make their first appearance of the season
on Exeter ice this Friday night which should prove
to be a very interesting hockey game. FRANK BUD -
DO, business manager, owner, secretary, treasurer:
and the main complaint department for the club,
will be here with bells on as he says the Wildcats'
will be at full strength for this one. Nothing .he
would like better than to upset the tribe. With JIM
LOADER a doubtful starter, it looks like the tribe
'will really have. some work cut out for them as new
faces are reported to be dressing for the Ilderton,
club.
While watching BLACKWELL go down to a 10.0
defeat in Lucan last week by the Ilderton Seconds
(Lucan),so we were informed by BUDDO, who is
having ulcer trouble as one of his star players is
playing for the IRISH; the Lucan club looked good
enough to hold .more than .their own in the league
this winter. From the teams we've seen so .far in
action, we'll pick CLINTON and LUCAN as the
'best. Although we managed to squeeze out a 4-3
victory in FOREST, experience will be the big down-
fall for the LAKESIDES. Nevertheless, • I . wouldn't
count thein out.of a playoff berth. FOREST undoubt-
edly has built a real contending club and* will de-
finitely be ,heard from in the near future if not
this year:

Exeter Mohawks rallied for two
unanswered markers by Gar
Johnston and Bill Oberle to
down Forest Lakesides 4-3 in an

Forest ice last Thursday night.
The tribe, who trailed 2-1 at
the end of the first and 3-2 at
the end of the second, was in-
spired by Johnston's goal at
6:34 togo on andwin their
second victory in as many starts.
The winning marker came with
just 48' seconds remaining in the
game when Bill. Pincombe re-
layed a pass to Jim Russell who
in turn slipped . a perfect goal -

stick for the clincher.
