* ws _ Castlégar News _2onver 407 Mayor calls f BOSTON (AP) — It may be easier to blow the whistle on athletes battling during a game than to convict them in court for their violent behavior, say some authorities. Boston Mayor Raymond Flynn has called on police to move in if needed to halt violence in professional sports, and city council president Bruce Bolling has proposed allowing police to arrest professional athletes who engage in violence during competition in Boston. Boxing would not be included in Bolling’s proposed law, He and Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard law professor, also see problems with juries leaning towards the hometown player. CLOUDED VISION “If you pass an ordinance in Boston . , . I would be fearful that . . . the local star would get off and the other person would be found guilty,” said Berry, “Juries all are going to support the home team,” said Dershowitz. Boston Bruins players have been involved in two “You have juries and judges ing! to find guilt in those types of situations, partly because they're sports fans and partly because of the idea that within the sports arena, things may look different,” Robert Berry told the Boston’ Globe. Berry teaches a course on the legal problems of sports at Boston College Law School. hockey incid that went to courts. Boston defenceman Ted Green's skull was fractured in a fight with Wayne Maki during an exhibition game in Ottawa in 1969 between the Bruins and the St. Louis Blues. Both were charged with assault in what was the first criminal court action against professional hockey Waayers. NW, r violence Both were acquitted. Maki was ded for 30 days and Green for 18 games. “Hockey can’t be played without what normally are called assaults,” said the judge. . In 1975, Dave Forbes of the Bruins was indicted on a charge of aggravated assault after causing permanent eye damage to Henry Boucha, # Minnesota North Stars player. The Minneapolis jury was hung and the charge dismissed. ‘SEES PROBLEMS Lewis Kurlantzick, who teaches a seminar on sports and the law at the. University of Connecticut school of law, saw various obstacles in criminal prosecutions. “First, you don't have a complainant,” he told The Globe. “Even the injured player, like. Teddy Green, doesn't want the action to be brought, so the prosecutor has a lousy witness, if he has any witness at all,” He said.a player may be reluctant to testify because “either he subscribes to the code, and he sees where he. could be if’ defensive position himself some day, team is ambivalent about it.” William Delahunt, Norfolk County district attorney, Plymouth County District Attorney William O'Malley and Kurlantaick say it would be-better if leagues policed themselves, “With the exception of the truly extraordinary event, there is an expectation for a certain level of contact that is part and parcel of a sporting event,” said O'Malley. Delahunt suggested fans might get out of hand if arrests were made except in the most violent instances. “Seeing the Royal Canadian Mounted Police ride out on the ice of the Montreal Forum presents an absurd kind of scenario,” he said. Rockers place third The Stanley Humphries Rockers returned from Sum- merland last weekend with a third-place finish in the eight- team tournament. In the tournament opener SHSS narrowly defeated the Oliver Hornets 51-50. Coach Barry DePaoli said the Rock- ers were not sharp and lack- ed game intensity which was probably due to the Christ- mas break. Offensively, Seott Bole hit for 23 points while guards Dillon and Lefurgey scored 10 and nine points respec- tively. Forward David Krav- ski chipped in with six while Fitchett had three.

DISCOVER SALMO SKI THE AREA BEST IN THE WEST! MONDAY MID-WEEK SKIING Higgins came off the bench to score what was to be the most important hoop of the game. In their second game of the tourney the Rockers were beaten by a determined Ker- emeos squad, 58-48. Bole led the scoring with 20 and Dillon and Lefurgey with 11 and 10 points accounted for most of the Rocker attack. DePaoli said Dave Kravski did a good job on the boards collecting 10 rebounds. The Rockers had difficulty at the foul line making only four of 16 foul shots. Stanley Humphries over- came a six-point deficit at halftime in their third game to defeat Summerland 70-61. Again Scott Bole led ‘the Rocker offense with 22 fol- lowed by Dale Fitchett with 14, Dillon 13, Lefurgey eight, Shane Bohnet two and Rob MacGregor added a single. DePaoli was pleased with the play of his bench in the final game. Shane Bohnet played well as did Rob Mac- Gregor and Harold Russell when called upon.

But when the Penguins invade Nassau Memorial Coliseum, the Islanders don't seem to need much and Tuesday all it took was Smith and Bossy to forge a 3-3 tie and extend Pittsburgh's winless streak in Uniondale, N.Y. 5, Detroit Red Wings 8 and Winnipeg Jets 3, Washington Capitals 2. Randy Cunneyworth scored Pittsburgh's third goal of the game early in: the third period. Craig Simpson scored twice for Pittsburgh with Mikko Makela scoring the other New York goal. OILERS 5 RED WINGS 3 Although Bossy scored two goals, including the one that made it 3-3 with 8:08 left in the third period, the Islanders were g m ed by the Penguins, as the 41-29 shots on goal in Pittsburgh's favor indicates. The Penguins had lost 11 straight NHL games in the Islanders’ home rink since 1983. “I don’t think we played that great,” said Islanders coach Terry Simpson. “I think we could have played it better. “Maybe the boys ean tell you why it took them 2" periods to wake up in their own building. “Smitty played well — that seems to be the only way we can win, if the goaltender stands on his head.” In other NHL games Tuesday, it was: Edmonton Oilers D Randy Gregg scored his fourth goal of the season with 3:41 remaining to snap a 33 tie. Edmonton is 8-2-1 in its last 11 games while Detroit has lost three in a row-and is winless in its last five outings. The Oilers are 17-1-1 against the Red Wings in their last 19 meetings and Edmonton has not lost at Detroit since Dec. 16, 1980. JETS 3 CAPITALS 2 Dale Hawerchuck and Paul MacLean scored during a one-minute, 46-second span early in the third period to lift the Jets. It was the fifth victory in six games for the Jets, who moved to within three points of the second-place Calgary Flames in the Smythe Division. Washington, which had lost only one of 11 previous home games to Winnipeg, remains last in the Patrick Division.
