5 EIHTH ANNUAL Eastern Massachusetts High School Hockey Tournament LOFTS J. McUIRE TOURNAMENT IRECTOR By JOHN POWERS, Boston lobe To the terminal hockey addict, it is Christmas ay come two months late. The thump of the newspaper against his storm door on one particular February morning brings him out of bed with a desperate longing, fueled by 0 weeks spent in freezing rinks from Peabody to West Bridgewater. His hands tremble. His eyes, numb with 7 o'clock blur, strain mightily to focus. This is Pairings ay a season-full of fantasy and anxiety crammed into a pile of agate type in a corner of the sports section. Who did Melrose get? Nash, they COULN'T have paired Latin up with MC again not after last year. oes Southie play Arlington again? Ah, Pairings ay A winter's craziness, boiled down to its quintessence, then set loose again to rock the old arden to its foundations for one magical week in March. Suddenly, you care passionately about Revere, now that you're playing them in the opening round at Ridge Arena. How good is that kid icarlo? How many lines do they skate? Can they shoot? Suppose we beat them how about Burlington? It never seems to change if anything, the emotion heightens every year, because they are more capable schoolboy hockey teams than ever before. When the tournament field is whittled down to the final eight and the scene shifts to Causeway Street, that peculiar insanity known as March Madness takes over. Who knows how that fourth-line freshman center is going to react when he hits arden ice for the first time, and hears 0,000 people screaming? He may have scored only two goals all winter, both of them against Reading, but now, he's turning the hat trick against Norwood in the big one.

7 EIHTH ANNUAL (Continued from Page 5) Tournament fever is what Eddie Burns calls it, and he knows the symptoms well. His Arlington teams-have been infected with it for more than a quarter of a century. The Spy Ponders may be life-and-death during the final two weeks of the regular season, sweating out those last two games with Peabody and Revere, but they'll still qualify, just as they did this year. And once they win that first one, nothing is ever the same again. Burns has another typically-balanced varsity this time, led by another one of his prolific sons, junior center Brian. It is young a dozen sophomores and two freshmen but wellgrounded in the basics. They forecheck with clockwork efficiency, and have one of the most effective power plays in the state. You don't need to be told this, of course. You've been watching Arlington teams for years, and their style and personality is unique. And you can say that about any of the Elite Eight, in either division. The familiar names have a knack of making it to the arden MC, Williams, Norwood, edham, Matignon, Southie, Hingham, Canton, Acton- Boxboro, Billerica. and they play familiar styles. Maiden Catholic is going to show up with three or four wizards ave Norton, Jim Trainor, Jack Hughes and enough manic forecheckers to keep you bottled up in your zone for minutes at a time. Southie is going to have the playmakers and the shooters Kevin Coughlin, who is unquestionably the finest player you'll see all week, and linemates Mike Rowland and Mike Lydon. They were the most productive line in Eastern Mass, this winter, a calm, businesslike group that is good for five goals a game, especially when the pressure is on and four thousand of their fans are in the stands. Ask Arlington. Norwood and Williams beat you with depth and non-stop skating. They'll throw four fresh lines on the ice all night long, and eventually some fourth-line sophomore will get the goal that beats you. If those two meet in the quarterfinals, the game won't really be played with running time. It'll just seem that way. Peabody, the top seed this week, kills you with raw speed a first line of Ed Sousai an Bowman and Bob McKenzie that may have more straight-ahead acceleration than anybody. And Matignon, back again after a year's absence, has two of the best sophomores in the state Mark Fidler and Bill Cotter, who've played together for nine years in Charlestown. The Warriors unseated Maiden Catholic as champion of the tough Catholic Conference, and they've got the guns to reach the final provided that Southie doesn't come up with another miracle finish. Looking for darkhorses in the best-balanced ivision I race in memory? Try Burlington, the Middlesex champion with the best regular-season goalie in junior Terry McSweeney. Or Brockton, making its first tournament appearance ever. The Boxers combine balance with depth up front, and their first unit of Jim Tuite, Paul Spillane and Bill Mcaffigan can skate with anybody. Or Lynn English, a first-round casualty last year, who won the Northeastern title and has a fine scorer in Jim Toomey. The ivision II battle, rapidly becoming a first-rate attraction in its own right, presents a clearer picture. Billerica, with a Merrimack Valley League winning streak of nearly 0, is by itself, and somebody will have to catch it. The Indians have been familiar tournament faces the past few years, reaching the semi-finals two years ago and the final last March losing to Acton-Boxboro each time. They have the division's best defenseman in Mark Mastrullo and a pack of forwards Brian Russell, Carlton (Continued on Page ) oal tend an extra period on the energy you get from 2 slices of Batter Whipped Sunbeam Bread 'THE CLINIC' Bowdoin College Brunswick, Me.

After two years of frustration, this may be their year unless, of course, Acton intervenes again. The Colonials chopped their way through a difficult draw last year Lynnfield, Barnstable, Hingham, Billerica on the strength of a swarm of buzzing forwards and a taut defense, led by All-Scholastic goalie Ken Moore, Virtually everything including coach Bruce Parker departed in June, but Moore is back, and he was enough to produce another ual County title and the second seed. If Billerica is upset this week, look for A-B to be the one responsible. Oliver Ames, after two years of wasted trips to Boston Arena, is finally ready to challenge, and the reasons are a center named Randy Millen and a goalie named Jim Craig. They spearheaded the Tigers to a Southeastern League crown, and if they do anything at Causeway Street, they will be the men in the middle of it. Hingham is no stranger to either tournament. When the Harbormen were denizens of the South Shore and Suburban Leagues, they reached the quarterfinals of the iv. I tournament almost by instinct. Now, as masters of the Old Colony League, their presence here is automatic. Look for ick Hamel, Paul Murphy and an exciting young player named Matt LaHive to spark the Hingham challenge. You know better than to overlook Canton. The scrappy Bulldogs played their way to the semifinals last year, and (Continued from Page 7} handed Oliver Ames their only defeat this winter. oalie Mark Hanson, and dangerous forwards Mark Oberlander and Steve McNeil do the bulk of the heavy work. Watch for Cape Ann powers Amesbury and Lynnfield to cause an inordinate amount of trouble, too. Both were first-round losers last year, but their forwards have matured greatly. Amesbury, with forward eorge odier and defenseman Wayne Fournier, will be a tough quarterfinalist And Lynnfield, the league champion, has a dynamite first unit of rew Taylor, Bert Burns and Matt Vacsro that simply ate people alive this season. There are at least half a dozen spoilers, too. Former Cape Cod League terrors Barnstable and Falmouth ruled the new-look Southeastern Mass. iv. I this year, and had memorable battles with each other. One of the two is always in the quarterfinals, even if it means overturning a league champion to do it. ual County runner-up Concord-Carlisle knocked off New Bedford, Masconomet and Arlington Catholic before losing to Hingham in last year's quarters, and they could be dangerous provided they survive their match with Lynnfield. The Patriots' first line of Tim Moreau, John Tortorclla and Brett Smith is as good as you'll find in either division. What all of it creates is one of the most finely-tuned tournament fields ever, the sort of thing that will run you through the emotional wringer several times before next Monday night. That, after all, is what makes the hockey addict sprint down his bedroom stairs with such anxiety every February.

16 MS; s. P. A Massachusetts Secondary School Principals Association The Massachusetts Secondary School Principals Association is composed of heads of the Commonwealth public and Catholic secondary schools. M.S.S.P.A. is sponsor of the Eastern Massachusetts- State Hockey Tournament held at Boston arden on March 5, 6, 7, 8, 0 and 7. Besides the hockey tournament, the responsibility for other types of competition includes cross-country and soccer in the fall, basketball, indoor track, wrestling, swimming, and gymnastics as well as hockey during the winter and baseball, outdoor track, tennis and golf in the spring. Responsibility extends to the regulat'on of all sports eligibility, all-star and other non-season competitions as well as to the many other facets of athletics. Until the M.S.S.P.A. took over regulation and operation of multiple school athlet'c events in Massachusetts, the situation aoproached near chaos. Everybody and anybody were running post-season games and tournaments. Seasons overlapped and conflicted. In general there was mass confusion. The M.S.S.P.A. took over, organized and installed rules and regulations. School events were run by school people. Athletes had to be school students in good standing in their marks and citizenship. The M.S.S.P.A. sports credo is that athletics are a privilege, not just inherited. M.S.S.P.A. is, however, much more than an athletic organization. That can be deduced from its other committees which far outnumber those concerned with athletics, all under direction of the Executive Board. The committees are Academic Affairs, Educational Policies, Music, rama, Forensics and ebating; Citizenship, State High School Equivalency, Professional Standards, Legislative, Science Fair, Officials Fees, Scholarship, National Honor Society, School and College Relations, External Testing, N.E. Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, Student Council as well as discussional groups. Thus it is apparent that everything about everything pertaining to secondary schools in Massachusetts is the interest of M.S.S.P.A. However, sports led to the formation of the M.S.S.P.A., which took the initiative and brought order out of chaos. This is an organization of voluntary members, a democratic and permissive body operated with democratic representation across the state and parliamentary procedures whose members abide by the regulations of the organization through their own initiative in membership. The income from tournaments such as this Boston arden competition, after the competing schools are reimbursed for expenses in keeping with a policy that no school shall suffer financially from such competition, cover expenses of the so-called 'loser* sports like cross country, indoor and outdoor state track meets and competitions in soccer, swimming and wrestling as well as those in golf, tennis and baseball. It goes, too, into an annual scholarship fund distributed proportionately to qualifying students throughout the Commonwealth and for science fair and festivals in music and drama as well as other programs which benefit students male and female - in the state's secondary schools. The M.S.S.P.A. is the Watchdog of school sports and the uardian of school academics. It also is the staunch friend of school students. The NEW Hockey School With a ifference...
