' Ice Hockey '
E. H. GREEN
This evening Captain E. H. Green is to give a short history of ice hockey with a brief explanation of the rules (penalties and so forth). He will discuss rinks and teams, personalities in the game, and compare English and Canadian players. Opportunities in the future for young players, the growth and future of the game, and new rinks ; important games in the near future, the progress of the League-these and many other things will be dealt with in his talk.
Captain Eric Green himself used to play outside left for England at hockey and has written several books on the game. He played ice hockey for many years before the war, when the game was known as ' bandy '. Since it was introduced into London and the provinces, he has been one of its keenest supporters and is considered among the best critics of ' the fastest game in the world '.
