The Millennial Hockey Competition,
sponsored by the Icelandic National
League, was staged at Selkirk, Man.,
March 7-8. Teams entered in this com-
petition were: Selkirk, Arborg, Gimli and
from Winnipeg, Maple Leafs, Pla-Mors,
Cardinals and Falcons. Six games were
played, tliree the first night and three, in-
cluding semi-finals and finals on the
second night.
The Gimli Hockey Club was declared
the winner of the competition and became
the custodian of the Millennial Trophy for
a period of one year.
The Hockey Competition this year was
on the whole successful and interesting,—
good sportmanship and keen rivalry being
the predominating note. The paid attend-
ance, however, was no better than in
former years, and expenses were neces-
sarily higher.
After the games the participating teams
were invited to a banquet and dance pro-
vided by the people of Selkirk, and at
which the Selkirk Club acted as host to
the visiting teams. This was a fitting
climax to an interesting competition. On
this occasion the Millennial Trophy was
officially presented to the Gimli Club by
Dr. Blondal on behalf of the Icelandic
National League.
At this time the Trustees would like to
publicly thank the many splendid men and
women who helped so materially to make
this effort a success. We wish to thank
Mr. Skinner, owner of the Selkirk Hockey
Rink, for the reasonable rates he charged
for use of the rink and his helpful co-
operation in every respect. We wish to
thank Mr. B. Kelly of Selkirk who so
cheerfully gave of his time and that with-
out compensation, for looking after our
interests in the matter of collecting tickets.
We wish to thank Mr. Gordon Skinner,
who acted as a second referee and without
pay. Also we wish to thank Mr. Carl
Thorlakson, our official time keeper, and
Mr. Ben Baldwin in an advisory capacity
—both of whom cheerfully gave of their
time and energies in the interests of the
games. And lastly, we wish to thank the
People of Selkirk for their splendid dis-
play of good will.
