CLINTON REQUEST . -
FOR RULE CHANGE
DEFEATED BY OHA
A. resolution Passed. at the .annual
meeting of Clinton Interniediete
Hockey Club last spring, suggesting
a change in *like, was discussed at
a meeting of the executive of the
Ontario Hockey Aesociation in Tor-
onto recently.
The .suggested ,rule would • have
barred towns and cities., with a pop-
ulation of mere than 5,000, from In-
terMediate "B" hockey,
Although defeated by the hockey
moguls, it was intimated that it
might be written Into books, once
the many promised aetificial lee
arenas in Ontario became realities.
As the present ruling stands,
is lat ,strictly 1.1P to the governing
body as to what class a town or eitY
is placed so that in sorne cases large
cities, without. suitable ice facilities,
are Competing with . small centres.
(e. g. London Majors last winter.)
• The .Clinton officials suggested
that "no municipality with a pope.
lation over 5,000 be eligible to enter
a team in'the Intermediate "B" series
and thwt no resident of •a municipal-
ity of over 5,000 population be allow-
ed to play evith any 'club in that
series," but it was defeated after a
lengthy' cliscuSeion.
The move would have placed sev-
eral district cities, whieh have noth-
ing but natural ice, either in Inter-
mediate "A" or Senior competition
along with some of the best clubs in
the province.
