THERE WAS something
Monty Barns-ish about the
owner of the Vancouver
Cunucks skating against a
team comprised of former
players of the National Hockey
Lestgue team,

By A.P. McCredie
Sports Reparter

Arthur Griffiths played for the
West Vancouver police ina chirity
hockey game against the Canuck

Oldtiniers last Sunday aflernoon in
West Vancouver,

And no, hone of the players
whose cheques he used to sign took
the opportunity to cash their awn
checks against their forties boss.

Perhaps feeling buoyed by play-
ing on a dine with West
Vancouver's finest, Arthur even
went hard into a comer chasing é
loose puck with dirt Bubla.

Even with the men in blue in his
corner, however. Arthur.and com-
pany could manage onty six goits
against the former pros. who tallied

12 of their awn,

Bat the scoreboard was not whit
the entertaining game was all about,
The sell-out aime was part of an
evening of fundriising events for
Canuck Place,

Another attraction — especially
for those who don't remember the
days of Cesare Maniago, Greg
Bozek or Greg Baddy -- was an
autograph session with four current
Griffiths’ employees: Antoski.
Courtnall, Linden and Odjick,

One question, Can Arthur play
basketball?

charity hockey game at the West Vancouver arena. Despite
having Arthur “buddy can you spare a team” Griffiths on their
side, the police dropped a 12-6 decision, but no gloves, to the
former pros. . ;
