Smith Wrm_mFm' Handicap Lewis The old adage "The Best of Them Pall", was truly exGhTyWii7d at The Bowlaway last week when Brock Snyder and his aged and decrepit Peach Kings put the skids under the great Wonders team, 2-1. Big Rushton is like an ocean going whale wallowing around in the Grand River. He has no hockey team and it is too cold for softball. The razor wielder does not howl, as that would be too laborious, and as a result he has no place to waste either his energies or his money. Never mind Rush, the war will soon be over and then you can have a dozen teams . . . Chuck Walker, the genial mascot of the Black Cats was the recipient on Christmas Eve. of a very lovely gift from his team mates. Oliver Cromwell "Iron Head" Shaw, captain of the cats, that frequently change their name, on behalf of himself, his players and the nimble fingers of Kay Tufford presented the Big Cigarette and Choco- late Bar Traveller, with a nice, warm pull-over sweater, a black one, with the team name on the back of it in yellow letters. Banzi, the Cats should go some place now. Most likely change their name again . . . There has been no real excitement at The Bowlaway the past two holi- day weeks. The ladies, God Bless Them, or . . . . have not been bowl- ing. They start again this week . . . Old Dan Cupid has been busy with his bow and arrow in the Peach Queens' league again. This time it is our own Little Mary Irvine. Pilot Officer Bert Norton, is the lucky boy. They will middle aisle it the end of January. . . . Two times twice they've tumbled. They took a terrific flop this time. Playing against their factory work mates, the Metal Craft team, the Wonders _ dropped three games on Monday night. That makes tive losses out ot l the last six games played. What's the matter Jerry, too much Port Dover ozone. . . . Doff that 10 gallon sombrero to Texas Bonham. He knocked Mert Zimmerman’s high score of 371 clean into South Grims- by township Monday night when he rolled a 398. Hot pancakes, isn't that a lula of a score. The rangy kid playing with his Farmers' team against Whizzer Kanmacher’s bold, bad, throat-slitting Pirates, had eight straight strikes and two spares, to get within two points of 400.

SPQRTOLOGY As the above pictures illustrate, today's Chateau Frontenac (inset), with 723 guest rooms, is much en- larged over the 1893 hostelry (main picture) which started the eompar1y's move into the coast-to-coast hotel field) 1898-99 the first addition, TOWERING up from the most outstanding location in Quebec on the cliff which overlooks the St. Lawrence River, the Chateau Fron- tenac, one of the Canadian Pacifie Railway Company's country-wide chain of "graad hotels", celebrates its 50th anniversary on December 17, 1943. Built on the spot where once rose the Chateau St. Louis, official residence of early French governors and in a city where sea lanes and rail lines converge, the great hotel is one of the best known in the world.

Walters Some of the additions called for marvels of planning such as the ex- cavation of more than 40,000 cubic yards of rock from a space entirely surrounded by adjacent structures, which continued in full operation, thereby reducing the use of blasting to the minimum. Masonry on the tower was completed during the Winter and often storms and high winds made it impossible to work. Very few hotels anywhere have had their royal suites as busy as the Chateau Frontenac, which has the Citadel Wing, was made to the original structure. Since then the Mont Carmel Wing in 1908-09, the St. Louis Wing in 1920-22 and the Central Tower, from 1920-24, have been added, with further major im- provements being made in 1926. 917 980 904 Owls' Club, 3; Nia.

Each Wednesday night for several weeks they have been bowling on the Y.M.C.A. alleys. The Lions have devised pipe railings by which the blind people feel the general direction of the alley before they roll the ball. They listen carefully as the pins fall. Some of them have marked up scores as high as 160, Allan .___........ Simms F........
