THE MICHIGAN DAILY , VIICHIGAN DELEGATION LISTENS: Officials Decide on Policies for New Hockey League Michigan Nine To Meet Broncos at Kalamazoo F By MIKE GILLMAN A Michigan delegation listened as officials of the newly-formed Western Intercollegiate Hockey League met in closed session Sat- urday and Sunday at Minneapolis to lay down future league policy. Among the major items on the agenda were 'rules designed to curb brawling and the installations of a playoff to determine future Western entries for the NCAA finals. A rules committee decided that players who are involved in fights will be ejected from both the game they are then in and the following game. Any player who strikes an official is out for the season. Uni- form enforcement will be guaran- teed by officiating clinics prior to the season. Next season's Western represen- tatives will have to play in a four- team tourney before going to the NCAA playoffs in Boston on March 16-18. The first and fourth place teams will vie for one spot and the second and third for the other. Each pairing will play a two-game series, with the winner determined on total goals. Michigan coach Al Renfrew be- lieves that this playoff will keep spectator interest high through- out the season since all four posi- tions wouldn't be filled until the closing weeks of the season. Said Renfrew, "I feel that we accomplished a lot. We were there Athletes Aid Good Will 'Ic (Second in a series on foreign ath- letes in American colleges.) By JIM BENAGH "Attending an American col- lege was one of the most won- derful experiences of my life." -Al Renfrew, Michigan hockey coach, a native of Toronto, Can- ada. * * *r Foreign athletes in American colleges are in a dilemma., The petty jealousies by Ameri- can coaches and by the fans'and coaches of their respective home- lands occasionally have over- shadowed the athlete's accom- plishments. ' Many coaches have become pre- occupied with the foreigners' dom- ination of American champion- ships, while back in thechomeland coaches and fans are concerned mainly .about losing their stars. Meanwhile, little publicity is given to the athletes' contributions to international good will and the United States sports, or to the, betterment of the individual's edu- cation. Munn Promotes' America Michigan State Athletic Direc- tor Clarence "Biggie" Munn, Mich- igan track coach Don Canham and Navy swim coach John Hig- gins have made state department Well Represented Michigan has been well-rep- resented by international ath- letes in the past few years. In the last five years, for example, "M" winners have in- cluded athletes from Ireland, Scotland, England, Sweden, Finland, Canada, Bahama Is- lands, Hungary, ,British An- tigua, British Guiana, Mexico, Denmark and Germany. Michigan State has about 600 en- rolled. As contributors to America, for- eign athletes were credited by Canham for coloring meets and bettering competition in the United States. "Look at Ron Delaney," said Canham. "There's no question that he did more to draw track crowds these past couple years than any other single factor. "At the same time, our milers had a chance to run against him and see how good they really are." Smith cited foreign athletes like NCAA two-mile champion Alex Henderson (of Australia), as "being nothing but an incentive to our squad." Henderson Works Hard to see what the league had to offer. The decision as to whether or not we join is up to the Board in Control now."n No Mandatory Schedule Renfrew was especially pleased to see that the WCHL would have no mandatory schedule.. He ex- plained that if a school feels that another school isn't living up to its standards, that school could be dropped from the schedule without the complete disbanding of the league. This was one of the defects of the defunct WIHL. The decision was also made to limit the number of games to be played by members, 30 next season and 28 thereafter. Michigan is limited by a school ruling to 24 plus post-season playoffs. Renfrew was accompanied to' the meeting by Marcus Plante, faculty member of the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Ath- letics.

The Broncos, a perennial small college baseball power, will be any- thing but "a soft touch" for the local nine, as they possess one of their strongest clubs in recent years. Included on Western Michigan's impressive list of diamond victims are Michigan State, Iowa and other Big Ten teams. The Broncos also hold two previous wins over the Wolverines, garnered in the Florida State Tournament, that Coach Don Lund's squad would like to avenge. On the mound for the Wolver- ines, as they try for their sixth win against nine defeats, will be either righthander Al Koch or southpaw Nick Liakonis. Both of the junior hurlers took it on the chin in last weekend's series against Michigan State, each picking up a loss. Despite these defeats, Lund strongly indicated that both pitchers would get start- ing assignments in, one of the three Conference games this week- end. In addition to the three Big Ten games, one against Indiana, Friday, and two against Ohio State, Sunday, the Michigan team will also meet 'the Irish of Notre Dame at South Bend Thursday. Lund is still optimistic about his club's chances in the Conference title race despite the fact that his squad took only one of three from Michigan State to open the season. He said, "This club has a lot of potential and showed some of it in the State series. The problem is how to get all of the potential out of the squad." Added to the club's growing list of assets was sophomore Bob Mar- cereau, who pitched a fine game Saturday, giving up only one run and six hits, to give the Wolverines their lone win against the Spar- tans.. Faculty Golf All male faculty members inter- ested in golf lessons sponsored by the Men's Physical Education De- partment are invited to enroll to- day.

L I rI trips abroad to promote America through athletics, and all agree that the competition has won as many, or more, friends as our diplomats. "Likewise a foreign athlete .. . returns to his country and gives his people a story of America they are going to believe, because they will know he is speaking the truth," replied Arizona State Athletic Di- rector Clyde B. Smith, whose school has been a leader in the international movement in his area. "That will do more to develop good will between our respective countries than all the money and resources being used to build it in other ways." These same men will also point out that American schools are becoming internationalized-thus, justifying the use of the import.
