will, for the first time. become more than armchair
selectors as they participate in a ballot to choose the
starting line-up for the National Hockey League all-
star team to meet the Soviets_in a three -game series
The series. described by Alan Eagleson. Ex-
ecutive Director of the National Hockey League

supremacy", is considered so important that the nor-
mal league schedule will be closed down for the week

The balloting has been made possible by Wilkinson
Sword Canada who. in co-operation with the NHL and
NHLPA. will be distributing millions of ballots
through - all NHL arenas and thousands of super-
markets and retail stores wherever' Wilkinson
products are sold.
Fans may vote and change their minds as often as
they wish.
Each ballot will carry the names of 80 NHL
players who have been nominated by a special panel of
the Professional Hockey Writers' Association The
players will be listed alphabetically and by position.
There will also be space for write-in nominees,
like Bobby Orr, who is back on the ice this fall.
Each NHL team will -be represented in the ballot
by a miniertum of two players.
. The ballots will be counted by an independent
tabulation house and up-to-date results will be releas-
ed regularly beginning early November.
An additional bonus for voting fans will be a 50
cent cash refund coupon with each ballot. against
Wilkinson II shaving produCIST
When the fans have picked the starting line. the
remainder of the players will be chosen -by the team
manager. and or the coaches of the NHL all-star
team.
The NHL -Soviet series will replace the traditional
all-star games between the Prince of Wales and
Clarence Campbell conferences.
New show for ladies
Look for a new television series this fall. It will be
known as Woman Outdoors. The half hour shows will
feature women engaged in various outdoor activities
such as fly fishing. sky diving and nature photography.
Outdoor writer and broadcaster Doreen Fawcett
is host of the series which will be seen on stations in
Canada and the United States.

Quotes
Bob Griese on Ron Jaworski of the Eagles having
the best arm in the National Football League. "He
could pass a football through a car wash and it
wouldn't come out wet."
Houston Oiler coach Bum Phillips after rookie
running back Earl Campbell rushed for 151 yards in an
exhibition game against Dal las."I think he will survive
the cut " Free day
Sunday is "meet- the players day" when the
Lucan-Ilderton Jets take on the Preston Jesters at 2
p.m. at the Ilderton arena and the price is right.
