MONTREAL. Nov. 12-If the
Turk Broda kidnapping case
hadn't exploded the Canadian
army hockey situation. Ma
tional Hockey League Officials
would have turned on the heat
themselves by this time, it was
learned here today.
There were some very indig-
nant club owners around the
MIL. Fierce competition for
players among the Canadian
service teams had resulted in a
number of league players being
grabbed ahead Of their regular
induction order-apparently just
to play hockey.
Other players, such as de-
fenseman Pat Egan Of the De-
troit Red Wings. were taken
into service apparently only 10
carry hockey sticks. since they
could not pass regular army
phySlcals.
Although the big league had
It's greatest season at the box
office, there was some resent
ment in pro ranks because OF a
competitive element.
Some of the service teams,
packed with former MIL stars.
appeared ready 10 keep their
ranks intact, season after
season.
II wasn't the fault Of the
plavers that they weren't
shipped out. The men up above
them Just appeared TO be dis
inclined 10 break up winning
combinations which were play
ing superior hockey before
packed houses.
Those teams were filling cam
teen funds. One club out west,
for example, brought in $64,-
600.
Now the new ruling from OF
tawa says hockey players must
be soldiers first. They can play
hockey if they are taking the
same training as other soldiers.
There is no basic training at
