Eastern Hockey

Bill Stone, the American golf gent,
thinks there is going to be shortage
of caddies when the links season

plans for standard set of nine golf
clubs to be used on his course at

The set will consist of three
wooden clubs and six iron clubs and
can be carried, Stone says. by the
player himself. Most golfers now
adays use the standard 14-club set
approved by the United States Golf
Association, consisting of 4 wooden
clubs and 10 irons, including put

LeoffIer Will Protest
Hockey Game Ruling

Owner S. G. Leoffier OF the Wash
ington Eagles today said he would
attend an important meeting Of the
Eastern Amateur Hockey League at
Madison Square Garden tomorrow
and personally request that the 7-6
victory credited Boston here last
Tuesday night be forfeited to WASH
ington
Leoffler is dissatisfied with the
ruling of President Tom Lockhart
who merely fined the Olympics 500
for walking off the ice and delaying
the game for eight minutes. The
local prexy will base his protest on
the fact that Referee Mel Harwood
declared that he would forfeit the
game to the Eagles unless the
Olympics reappeared within one
minute.
