EIGHT COLLEGES IN INTERNATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE

McGill, Toronto, Montreal, Queens Are Canadian Members; Each Team Will Travel in Alternate Years

In a move that will add zest and interest to intercollegiate hockey games played with Canadian teams, the members of the Quadrangular League have joined four Canadian College teams in forming an international intercollegiate league, to begin functioning next year.

Travel in Alternate Years

The four Canadian teams are McGill, Montreal, Toronto, and Queens. Under the plan Harvard and Dartmouth will play two games in Canada every other year, alternating with trips by Yale and Dartmouth. The Canadians will send two teams each year on return trips. Thus each team gets four international games per trip, two each year. The Canadians will return the invasion each year, Toronto and Queens making a two-game circuit one year, McGill and Montreal the next.

Stubbs, Praises Plan

The new league, formed through the efforts of Major Forbes, McGill's Athletic director, and Holcomb York, Yale Hockey coach, was praised last night by Joe Stubbs as a convenient method for making the international games at once more significant and interesting. He pointed out that the new plan won't require any more travelling than is done at present.
