I can't see how this merg1 er or marriage between these two organizations can be anything but a success," Sonmor said, who will work as liason between the North Stars and the Eagles organization. The North Stars have been one of the pioneers in the development of American hockey players. Minnesota made Brian Lawton, a graduate of Mt. St. Charles High School in Rhode Island, its No. 1 draft pick. Lawton was the first American ever selected as the first pick in the NHL draft. He said Lawton is capable of playing immediately in the NHL, but will probably remain with the U.S. Olympic Team until after the 1984 Winter Olympics. Sonmor said the club has made a commitment to sign free agents, too CHL free agents this season include former Golden Eagles Richie Hansen and Bruce Affleck. Others are Dave Silk, Mike Backman, Mike Forbes, Murrey Brumwell, Hector Marini, Steve Stoyanovich, Bobby Crawford and Mark Reeds. Some of the players names tossed around who could be playing in Salt Lake for the 1983-8- 4 season include former U.S. Olympic goaltender Jim Craig and junior goalie sensation Mike Sands. In addition, CHL scoring king Wes Jarvis, Craig Homola and Jim Dobson were also mentioned as possible candidates for Salt Lake City. Jarvis led the CHL this past season with 108 points on 40 goals and a 68 assists. Dobson league-hig- h topped the league in power play goals, scoring 19 of his 36 lamps with the extra man advantage. Homola scorer was a About the only matter unresolved at this stage is who will coach the Eagles.

Dailey told the weekly sports magazine, published by Time Inc., that Barry had passed him $1,000 of the money The school plans to resume basseason ketball in the was The article published shoitly to a after Dailey charge of aggravated assault in connection with a Dec. 21, 1981 assault on a female nursing student in the university dormitory. Dailey was sentenced to three years probation and later agreed to a settlement paying Victoria Brick, now a nurse, an undisclosed amount and giving her a written apology. Barry, a former assistant coach at Weber State College in Ogden, said in the suit he filed without an attorney that Dailey's statements connecting him with the cash payments were false and had caused him to suffer loss of reputation, shame, mortification, and hurt feelings Barry wants $250,000 in general damages each for one count of libel and defamation and $500,000 in punitive damages for each charge.

Jack (Evans) did an outstanding job. He will be hard to replace, Sonmor observed Sonmor said precautions will be taken to avoid leaving the Eagles weak due to player movements by the parent club. "We haven't found it necessary to move too many players. And if it should become necessary, we ll have adequate replacements on hand."
