Top Brass HereThe Canadian Amateur Hockey Association's top brass will be in Winnipeg this weekend for an important meeting . - . Here, will bo president Fred Page of Vancouver; j Lionely Fleury, past president, Quebec City; Earl Dawson, Rivers, vice-president; and Lloyd Pollock, Windsor, vice-president . . . Among the tilings they will discuss, according to seeretary-manager Gordon Juckes, will be how to handle the* applications for the 1970 World Tournament and to make arrangements so that representatives from each applying city can be interviewed . . . Juckes, by the way, expects all six cities that were invited by the CATIA to apply for the Tournament, will do so . . . Meantime, the Winnipeg Enterprises and local officials of the National Hockey team, have set the wheels in motion with the idea of making this year’s invitational tournament between Russia, Canada and Sweden, a success ... If it is, and it should be, then there’s no doubt it will help Winnipeg in its bid to host the 1970 World Tournament . . . The Winnipeg brief is already prepared and we can say that Harold Martin and Percy Downton of the Enterprises, have done on excellenty job . . .It is doubtful if any one city will actually be awarded the entire 1970 tournament . . . This would involve playing something like thirty games within the space of two weeks and that would be just a little too much . . . Financially, the event would probably be much more successful with two centres playing host, with each getting 15 games . . .
