By Graham Cox OTTAWA (CP) — On the eve of the second Canada Cup intrnational hockey series, the secretary of the Soviet ice hockey federation looked back on the series, interna- tional hockey generally and his connections with them. In a dispatch to the Soviet news agency Novosti, former referee Andre Starovoytov says “USSR-Canada hockey matches always remain in memory,” The 1981 series elimination round opened Tuesday with Russia playing Czechoslovak- ia in Winnipeg while Canada played Finland and Sweden met the United States in Edmonton. Four of the teams will ad- bi come coach and later general- manager of Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League during one of their. most illustrious eras. DISCOVERED CANADA “My favorite sport helped me discover Canada for my- self, Ice hockey fate brought me to very small townlets — such as Thunder Bay (in northwestern Ontario) or Flin Flon (in, northern Man- itoba) — whore there are sports lovers and rather good teams.” When he left refereeing, Starovoytov began organi- zing international and local events and became. ac- quainted with the Canadian Amateur Hockey Associa- tion, at that time responsible vance from the d. to i-final for all fonal compe- nothing but declarations though they pour oil on the flame. “We came to terms in the final analysis. Clarence Campbell, the former NHL president, can be called the godfather of our matches with the pros, REMEMBERS EAGLESON “After my meeting with Mr. Campbell, I got ac- quainted with a young man of large stature and great en- ergy. I mean Allan Eagleson, who has preserved his en- ergy up to now. “He was one of the first to understand that the future of hockey is not in confron- tation, but in good co-oper- ation. “Allan knows quite well the Russian phrase ‘nyet while I often use Sept. 9 in Montreal and Ot- tawa with the series final Sept. 13 in Montreal. But Starovoytov's mem- ories go back to 1955 and the world ch h in tition Canadian teams. “I happened to settle many aspects of bilateral meets with Mr. (Gordon) Juckes (then CAHA secretary-man- ini: con- Kreefeld, West Germany, where he first met “Canadian stickmen” in a Canada-Swe- den match, Canada that year was represented by Whitby, Ont., Dunlops. “In the Canadian squad, I especially liked its skipper, No. 4, a dark-haired boy” — Harry Sinden.

This was a sports event of great im- portance. (Canada won the final game in the dying seconds when Paul Hender- son whipped the puck into the Russian goal.) “The world was enjoying then the prosp of detente that they would tear us to pieces and would simply ‘thrust our goalie into the net.

Only five returned without medals. The following is a look at the Summer Games through the eyes of Annie Rayner, who attended the games as Zone 1 representative for horseshoe pitching, coach, manager and chaperone. Thurs, Aug. 27 started out as usual for most people, but for 13 horseshoe pitchers things were different. They were among the 115 passen- gers slated to go by charter plane to the 1981 B.C. Sum- mer Games in Comox, Van- couver Island. _ There was last minute. packing and then off to the Castlegar Airport by bus and car. By9 a.m. the airport was.a mass of excited people. The athletes ranged in age from 13 years and over. One horse- shoe player from Zone I was 74 years.old. The plane left on time at 10 a.m. and landed in Penticton for refuelling. At 11:40 a.m. we landed at Comox. G We were met at the airport by some of. the Summer Games hostesses, one of whom gave us a welcoming. address, and then instruc- tions concerning our luggage, 'p ion and odation, ‘ We then walked the short distance to the registration centre where each person received a kit containing in- formation on the Comox Val- ley and his sport, a name tag and ribbon, and a jacket. The dackets were color co-ordin- ated to each zone, Ours were yellow and white. During this time, the souv- enir booths did a_ steady business. Box lunches were handed out and then it was time to board the bus going to the Camox Junior School, where we were to stay. Army cots were provided and each per- son took his own sleeping bag and pillow. We then had two hours to settle in, check out the dining area and other facilities, and visit with old and new friends, The horseshoe pitches were minutes away, so our group all walked over to check them out. K At3 p.m. we boarded buses ta take us to Courtenay to the barbeque and opening cere- monies, After eating came a two-hour wait before it was time to line up for the parade of the athletes. Then it was wait again. Everyone became bored and restless with not much to do except talk. At 6:30 p.m. the officials and the first three zones moved up to the . starting position. Fifteen minutes later the opening was under- way. All was over at 8:15 and it was back on the buses to our accommodation. With three hours until cur few, all expended their en- ergy by exploring the area, Comox was 20- minute walk from the school, so many went.there, Friday morning started at 5:20.a.m. with a wake-up call. Breakfast was from 5:45 to 6:30.a,m,. only, Buses began arriving to take swimmers, Rolfers and other athletes to their events, for many of them had to start at 6:30 a.m, The horseshoe pitching did not begin until 8:30 a.m. but almost everyone: went over Just shortly after 7 a.m. to practice, There were 12 classes of play, and each zone was allowed to send one player for each, But in our case, we were short players in three classes, so officials selected three extras from the classes we had so that 12 persons went. Also the zone repres- entative, or someone he se- fects, is allowed to go as enach. It rained both Friday and Saturday.
