Canadian Hockey Rules Changed.

bNocNoy h9iCo OUaU9O6s
A most radical change has been
made In the Canadian hockey rules.
It appears as though the Legislators Of
the ice game had taken a lesson from
the shifts in the American football
rules. The number of periods has
been heightened from two to three.
This Is one less than the division made
Of football playing time.
Canadian teams will play three
twenty -minute periods Instead Of two
thirty-minute sessions, as was the case
last. year. There will be ten minute
intermissions instead of five. as was
the case last season.
The name of the new organization is
the National Hockey Association of
Canada. The number of clubs was
fixed at seven and the salary limit
fixed mt 5000. The Canadian Ath-
letic club and Quebec take over the
franchises Of Harleybury and Cobah.

When It comes to gathering the coin
Of the realm Abe Attell, the feather
weight champion, is the master har-
vester. Two or three battles week
are merely exercise for the clever
Able. And no fighter is too tough. no
bit too small, to be overlooked or pass
ed up by the boxing business man.
Attelrs record since the outset OF the
present boxing season attests this
fact. In the. last three months the
featherweight champion has fought
fifteen battles Of varying lengths. In
no contest was Able extended. His
most recent one was with Pal Moore,
the crack Philadelphia lightweight, In
New York. Moore was only play
toy on Attell's hands, and the latter
could have put him out at any time he
chose. He will meet his master some
day; but. Judging by his present grand
form. 1t is many years of. Attell Is
the last of the old time champions to
remain.

WAGE FIGHT TO GET AERO
MEET FOR LOS ANGELES

The Aero Club of California, under
the auspices Of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association, is making
an effort to have the midwinter aVia
tion meet held in Los Angeles, but
unless a change can be made it will
be held in Pasadena.
Early efforts were made by the Aero
club to have the meet in Los Angeles
next January. The club sent 144 let
ters to prominent aviators throughout
France, England, Australia, Canada
and America, asking their views re-
garding events, amounts and distribu-
tions of prizes, the intention being to
meet in Los Angeles.
Word was received, however, from
the Aero Club of America, New York,
that Pasadena had won the meet.
The Aero club feels that the 100000
of Los Angeles should win the meet
for this city instead of Tor the Crown
of the Valley, which has 10000 inhab-
itants.
The Aero club proposes to exert ev-
eryl effort to persuade the national
club to change the meet to Los Angeles.
