At an informal meeting of amateur hockey coaches and officials held at the Harvard Club in Boston yesterday definite steps were taken towards having a uniform code of rules and uniform officiating at amateur hockey games this winter. The rules, as they are now in operation, were explained by A. W. Prettyman, of Hamilton College, Chairman of the Intercollegiate Ice Hockey Rules Committee, following which the coaches and referees present reached a definite agreement as to the interpretation of the rules.
