Hockey safety best in Canada

“Canada leads the way in
hockey face protection”
according to Dr. Tom Pash-
by, a Toronto
Ophthalmologist and
Chairman of the Canadian
Standards Association's
(CSA) committee on eye
protection standards. Dr.
Pashby recently spoke at the
first International Ice
Hockey Doctor's Conference
in Prague, Czechoslovakia
where he told a group of
hockey doctors, representing
a dozen countries, that
blindness to amateur hockey
players has decreased by 75
percent because of in-
creasing use of face
protectors and stricter rules
on high sticking. Most
Canadian amateur hockey
associations have made the
wearing of face masks
mandatory and CSA has
tested and certified several
models of eye and teeth
protectors,

“In Sweden, where the
wearing of face protectors is
mot compulsory, they have
had twice as many eye in-
juries per capita as we did
last year,'’ explains Dr.
Pashby. ‘Fifty percent of
‘all thelr injuries were to the
head and neck and most of
these could have been
prevented if face protectors
had been used.” '

He feels that Sweden and
Czechoslovakia will be the
next countries to make the
wearing of face protectors
mandatory next season for
players up to and including
16 years of age. Dr. Pashby,
who first became interested
in hockey eye protection 26
years ago after a patient,
Herb Dickensen of the New
York Rangers, suffered a
blinding eye injury, says the
next step in protection is to
create standards covering
goal tender’s masks,

“We, in Canada, can

“World’s most popular
game” championship -

BUENOS AIRES (Reuter)

— The waiting is over and

‘today the gladiators enter
the arena to Launch the
year’s most spectacular
sporting evert—the World
Cup soccer finals.

For two years, more than
100 countries battled for the
right to play in the 1¢-team
finals, held every four yeara
and the pinnacle of the
world's most popular game.

The Argentine referee will .
blow his whistle in the River
Plate stadium and 75,000
fans plus a world television
audience estimated at more
than one billion will follow
the action as world cham-
pions West Germany play
Poland.

Argentina has spent $700
million providing all the
required facilities and has
also survived a bloody
guerrilla war which at one
stage led to calls for the
tournament to be tran-
sferred elsewhere,
SECURITY TIGHT

Although the guerrilla
threat has all but digap-
peared, Argentina’s military
rulers are taking no chances

with security and the River
Plate stadium in nor-
theastern Buenos Aires will
be the safest. place in town,

Police will move into’

position eight hours before
the kickoff and unauthorized
traffic will be barred from
the area surrounding the
stadium. The two teams,
which arrived Wednesday
from their out-of-town
training camps, have been
given especially heavy
guards,

The match will he
preceded by a _ colorful
opening ceremony, including
a gymnastics display and
speeches by Argentine

President Lt.-Gen. Jorge
Rafael Videla and Joaoca
Havelange, Brazilian
president of the Inter-
national Football
Federation,

The tournament, the 11th
since the series began in
1830, is one of the most open
ever staged and many ex-
perts fear that the defensive
stralt-Jacket worm by most
modern teams could lead to
excessive physical contact
and the risk of violence both
on and off the field.

No European team has—
ever won the world cup in
South America and the signs
arte that this tradition will
not be broken.

BRAZIL
FAVORED

Brazil, the only country to
have won the title three
times, are again among the
favorites and could face
their stiffest. opposition from
hosts Argentina, whose 27
million inhabitants will
embark on an orgy of cele-
bration if their team wins the
cup for the first time.

Top European contenders
are West Germany and the
Netherlands.

Whatever the. result . of
today’s game, both teams
should still qualify from
Group Two where their
rivals are Mexico and Tu-
nisia.

The three other groups
start first-round competition
in the next twodays. The top
two teams in each group will
qualify for the two second-
round pools, each of four
teams, and the winners of
these two groups will meet in
the final on June 25.

‘ Caribous*®

definitely lead the way in
developing standards for
hockey equipment,’ says
Dr. Pashby. "I hope our CSA
committee will be able to
complete a standard for full
face protectors that wiil be
adequate for goal tenders by
this summer. Rather than
writing a new standard, we

. will update the present one

s that it is suitable for goal
tenders and covers the whole
face as well as the eyes and
teeth.”

Dr. Pashby would also like
standardized hockey rules
and recommends that the
Canadian Amateur Hockey
Association's (CAHA) high
sticking .rule-be adopted
internationally, He at-
tributes the CAHA “ban on
high sticking’ as a major

a ao, ae

factor in reducing eye in-

juries. A world-wide stan- -

dard is also needed for the
sizeof hockey stick blades so
that they will not be able to
penetrate the masks ac-
cording to Dr, Pashby.

“We must be careful that
the equipment, meant to
protect the players, doesn’t
become hazardous, For
instance, the Germans had a
problem with a certain type
of elbow pads that caused
twa facial fractures.
Parerits should also realize,
that protective equipment
wears out and must be
replaced, Also, this
equipment must fit properly
in order to do the job it is
supposed to do,” explains
Dr. Pashby,
