The Newspaper is the
-GREATEST 'ADVERTISING
MEDIUM for many ma-
sons. One of them is that
it carries the -power of
the printed word. People
believe in a message that
is permanent — one that
is written. They under-
stand it better. Also the
newspaper, because of its
permanence, lets the rd-
ek choose his or her own
time for absorbing the
message. And once put
down it can always be
picked up again. The. mes-
.sage that lives is the one-
that is written ire the
newspaper.

Club officials, while they are
expecting many returnees from

as yet whether to play in the

For the past several years, the
Beavers have played in the OHA.
Should the Beavers decide to
play WOAA they will face oppos-
ition from local teams such as
Clinton. and IfAngliam.

Maki was shown ducking away
with his stick raised in defence
of the two-handed blow.
The accompanyirig story re-
counted how Maki retaliated
immediately after Green's
swat. He flattened the pugna-
cious Boston defenseman, leav-
ing Green dazed and bleeding.
Green was taken to hospital
and underwent five hours of sur-
gery,for what was termed a "de-
pressed fracture of the skull. "In
other words, he damn near had
his brains knocked out.
This time a player lived.
the next time there is an excel-
lent chance he will be murdered.
Thai's right, murdered.
If an incident of this nature
took place in a- back alley and
two-by-fours replaced hockey
-sticks, Maki might be charged '
with assault with a deadly
weapon. If Green had died,
Maki could be charged with
manslaughter or second degree
murder.
Now, once again, National
Hockey League executives are
pontificating that they will en-
force rules and make stick
swingers suffer dearly. Hogwash!
The executives will impost a'
fine and maybe a couple of
games suspension. And usually the
teams pay the fine through a
bonus arrangement.
Unfortunately these NHL
decision-makers will wait until
the tragedy of death occurs be-
fore they impose the correct leg-
islation to thwart such incidents.
• The NHL executives rely too
much on satisfying team-owners,
and all these team-owners care
about is money. Most of them
don't even'atten&Stanley Cup
games when their team is el-
iminated, and they're the guys
voting on the outstanding per-
