Byron pulled a tendon in his knee during his training last year and this misfortune practi- cally put him out of the running. although he made good time for five hours. It has been neces- sary for him to change his leg action to favor this knee weak- ness and he has developed a pow- erful six beat crawl that carried him to victory this year in the annual California classic, the Alameda Marathon, a tidal swim of fourteen miles, which he won from a field of over one hundred contestants, only five of whom finished.

The following is. the summary»â€" The weather for the game was fine and there was a large crowd of base- ball fans. The game had plenty of action. Monoghan delighted the fans by slamming one over the fence in the third innings for a homer. Valin and Hackett made a good combina- tion of pitchers to divide a game, being right. and left handers. McIntyre won from ‘South Porcu- pine at ’Schumacher on Monday in the Temiskaming Baseball Association series (Senior), and as a result the McIntyres are now the leaders of the league.

The weather had been most unfavourable and many thought that the grounds would not he in shape for a game. “Grounds too wet,” said many. In addition it may he noted that the two teams had so much doubt about the condition of the grounds and the im- proba’bility of there being a. game that neither team was out in strength. \Vhile there was a. shower while the matter of having the match was be- ing considered, it. was eventually de- cided to go on with the game. A hur- ry-up call was sent out to the missing players and the Dome had a complete lineâ€"up while the Holly Recs. were a man shy. Before the game was well under way, however, the Holly Rees. had their full quota of players. Only a. handful of spectators waited for the game, which, of course, was nothing to write home about, the ground being too wet for good foot- ball Both teams are understood to have suffered a. net loss of eleven dollars and some cents. each through the game, the. receipts falling over 22.00 ;below the actual expenses.

The Dome won the match -bv the score off) to '3. It is understood that the match has been rprotested on the grounds that the Dome used a player who was not registered as required by the rules and regulations. In case the protest is gone on with and the game ordered to be re-played, the contest will likely be a very keen one.

South Porcupine McIntyre A B A012 0211 H210 R000 During the past week or two gossip has been busy in regard to the No- randa. Most of the stories have been flattering, and there is not much doubt as to the value of Noranda or the ultimate success of the property. The recent rapid rise in the board quotations of Noranda has created special interest in the stock. Many ihere held the stock before the rise lwhile many others got in while it Kwas going up. There are many stories of local men “cleaning up” on No- randa recently. Several here bought it around sixty dollars and some of these are quite satisfied that it will go i considerably beyond this figure in the? near future and that consequently they will make well out of it.

' Another report on Noranda reach- ing here by the same route said that rumour had it that the Anaconda. is about to make. an offer for control of Noranda on a share for share basis. Anaconda is now selling at about 1'3 points above Noranda and the re- port continues to the effect that the Anaconda has been on the lookout for a good copper property for some time. The despatch goes on to sug- gest that a. significant fact. is that An- aconda had sent an engineer to ex- amine Noranda, and the real buying on the market started on his return. Another point to be recalled is that the Anaconda is a Rockefeller com- pany and one of this family in the early days was a director of Normda, having holdings of about 60,000 shares. Moysey Co. private wire on Monday of this week said that reports were current that Naranda is about {to double the capacity of the smelter by the simple expedient of making a few minor changes and additions. “This is pretty nice, if true,” said the despateh.
