Augusta Hockey
Fan Takes Issue
with Coach Haines

the state of Maine, and 1 hope his
, plan viii work out to good effect.

having officiated at games in which
he was a player, 1 can say he is one
OF the best and cleanest players |

derstands the game thoroughly. But
out or love of the game OF hockey,
which I learned and have played
since grammar school boy. must
differ with Mr.. Haines in some in
stances of his statement.
In the first place. there is only
one way to referee a hockey game
and that is the right way-to play
the puck. To play the man who has
not the puck is a, foul. to play the
man who has >the puck and make
no attempt to play the puck is charg-
ing major foul. Now hockey is
, not in a mighty bad way in the good
Old state of Maine, true it is not in
a good state, owing no doubt to it's
. infancy in this state, in the intercol-
legiate contest which | have seen,
some of the players were crude as
hocheyists. but nevertheless very
gentlemenly.
1t may be true that the officiating
was not of the best and therefore
made the game poor, as a referee in
hockey can make or break in the
game. Mr.. Wiggin of Bates, and Mr..
Vail of Colby and Mr.. Haines him.
self refereed some games last year
to the satisfaction of all, and if such
plan as Mr.. Haines' comes to pass,
perhaps some others will materalize
and the ! tyers will get more in
touch anb know how to play the
game. ] am sure that any plan Mr..
Haines suggests will be a very big
benefit to the game in Maine.
/ wish him great success.
