STREAM FLOW BELOW

Stream flow in Canada during Dec-
ember was generally below normal
from Northern Ontario to the Eastern
Seaboard and normal or above normal
front Northwestern Ontario to the Pac-
ific Coast, according to a report issued
recently by the Dominion Water and
Fewer Bureau. The report noted that
although heavy snowfall occurred in
the Maritimes, there was little rain or
thawing, and lakes and streams remain-
ed at low levels. Deficiencies also con-
tinued in Quebec and Ontario.
While storage reserves on power pro-
ducing rivers remained in satisfactory
volume elsewhere in Canada, the flow
of 22 representative rivers throughou
Canada averaged only 24 per cent of
normal. In Ontario the situation Ludic-

SHAMATEURISM IN HOCKEY
Canada, the birthplace and Norte of
hockey, will not be represented at the
Olympic Games by one of its best or
even better amateur hockey teams, be-

come shaumteur in class A hockey.
Amateurism is a sham in most sports
-today and especially is that true in
class A amateur hockey. The recent
Ease° in selecting a team and players
for the team, which is to represent
Canada in hockey at the Olympic Gam-
es, has centred the spotlight of public
opinion on the harmful hypocrisy em-
bodied in the accepted definition of the
word "amateur" when used to classify
a hockey player.
The Winston Dictionary defines an
amateur as one who practices any art,

Almost all .good hockey players, pro-

These sub rose payments are winked
at by the various amateur hockey leag-

• ticipante must take an oath that they
hate not received any money or other
emolument for playing hockey at any
time, so Canade cannot be represented
by a top-notch team at the Olympics.
There just aren't enough high-class
shnon-pure hockey players available in
the country.
It is high time the word amateur was
dropped front the classification of part
time, unprofessional hockey players, or
its meaning should be altered when so
used. An. amateur hockey player should
be defined as one who plays hockey for
pleasure and for emolument while, at
the same time, canting his livelihoodent
some other occupation. Either that or
