If thefour players are declared ineligible, then’ we'll play with 16. players.” Costello alse said that if the United States follows through on its threat to protest the players’ eligibility, Canada would challenge the eligibility of players on eight or nine of the 12.teams in the Olympic hockey field.

Morrison. All signed professional contracts, and Morrison played nine games with New York Rangers of the National Hockey League. # ROSTER READY Costello saiod the four players will be included on Canada’s final 20-man roster, which must be submitted by 11 a.m. Castlegar time Monday. The Canadians, who play the United States in their opening game Tuesday, have 24 players on their current roster. Asked whether the Canadian hockey team would withdraw if an American protest was successful, Costello said; “We'll have a hard decision to make. That's a pos- sibility.” He said he expected several protests against players on other teams if the Americans protest, regardless of the outcome, “Because of the time element involved, they will all be thrown into the hopper,” Costello said. “There would be a number of nations protesting.” The Canadians contend that since their own Olympic committee and the International Ice Hockey Federation approved the four players, they should be allowed to participate in the United Games. . Each country is allowed to draw up its own eligibility rules, subject to IIHF approval. The Canadian rules allow players who have been in fewer than 10 NHL games to retain Olympic eligibility. Morrison is the only one of the four with NHL experience.

Costello refused to identify either players or countries that might be involved in a Canadian counter-protest. But when asked if it would be erroneous to say that four Americans would be included, he replied: “No.” He also said that, with Soviet and other Eastern bloc players professionals in all but name, it was ironic that ~ Canada was being questioned.

Moon also talked with officials of New York Giants, Miami Dolphins and Los Angeles Raiders before making his decision. vo “This is a decision that was tough for us to come by,” he said. “But I think it's a decision that will be best for myself and my family. “It's a decision that gives us a lot of security for the future and that's the thing I was looking for in the deal from the beginning.” Kiam = = > > NHL ROUNDUP Devils win over Quebec QUEBEC (CP) — Right winger Tim Higgins broke a tie with his second goal of the game at 16:46 of the third period Saturday and New Jersey went on to a 5-3 National Hockey League triumph over Quebee Nordiques, snapping the Devils’ eight-game winless streak.
