CRICKET, THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. RTING RUMMY TO RUGBY WHAT TIDINGS "FOR THIS SUMMER ? How Will Kingston 8hine on «= Baseball Map in 1922 Season. Many baseball fans are beginning lo ask themselves about Kingston baseball this coming summer. Per- haps it was that thunder and light- ning last Sunday night, or maybe the heavy rain yesterday that set them to thinking about the "ole pill" and the "ole hick'ry" and the "ole man" and the "ole game." At any rate many of them are talking about it and figuring out ways and means and kinds. What this year's situation will turn into is hard to say. There has been a Ifttle activity-on the party of one well-known baseball man which points as clear as daylight to "business as usual," but, on the other hand their are rumors and alarms every day about all the play- ors leaving town. Thompson, Derry, Schultz, Gallagher, Cherry, and many others are reported to be in Oshawa, Cobourg or some place in that direc- 'tion, or are at least preparing to hit . the trail for some other town. It will be too bad if a large crowd of good players light out all right. They were all good boys, on the base- Pall fleld, anyway, and put up a great Yame of baseball, But what if they have gone? There 18 no need for dismay. We have two »r three hundred youngsters hang- mg around town who have done hothing but play baseball and eat svery summer since they were born and when they come to maturity and their full size they will make some of. these old fellows look sick as ball players, Of course, we may hdve to put up with a Hlttle less finished style of playing than we have been accustom- ed to and .all that sort of stuff, but the additional interests of competi- tion apd "pep" should more than make up for it, espeefally if King- ston cbuld arrange a team in some baseball series similar to the O.H.A. group here this winter with Belle- ville, Cornwall, Brockville and King- ston competing There were about a dozen likely youngsters idle last summer because the one really good team in the city did not have room for them and could not use them. They, of course, will soon get sick of such a state of! affairs 'and move along. There were many others who were not quite up to the mark of last year and had to stay out of it A general evacuation by the older players would give them a chance. We may have seen better teams and higher class baseball last year than we ever have In Kingston be- fore, but did we have as much fun es in the old days when Y.I.C.B.A., Vie- torfas and C.L.C. fought it out in the senior city league? Not by a jug- ful. ' However, it doesn't matter much. The flans will enjoy it no matter how the turn of events shapes. the game, so long as there is baseball, and we'll all be on hand as usual A medical student remarks that some of the junior years are short- ly to be used as "subs." because of the fact that they don't intend to go to this evening's game, Hail to the champions, Queen's juniors, who have copped the junior college title again this year. | f TO-NIGHT. {| : s | This evening the last of the sen- | for intercollegiate hockey matches | will be played at the Jock Harty | Arena when McGill and Queen's try | conclusions. A win for Queen's will, make them fifty-fifty second placers with MeGill. If the MeGill team comes out on top it means second place for them, unshared by Queen's and the tri-color in the cellar with four defeats and nary a victory. In Montreal these teams played thirty minutes overtime to have Mec- Gill win by one point and not a few people thought the local college men had the better of the play. On their own ice they should revenge this de- feat and 'obtain at least an even break with the Shagmen. Many Kingston fans have been waiting for a look at the McGill out- fit this winter and their one oppor- tunity comes this evening. The seat | sale has been going along right'mer- | rily and there Is a very generous stu- | dent patronage for this game. Quean's will put out the best six pos- | sible and so will McGill. The en- tertainment should be lively. { Basketball Played Tonight, | On Friday night the Sydenham | street girls play the Baptist aggre- | gation at basketball and a good con- | test is assured.

In Hockey at St, Paul--His Team Is Leading. An account of the St. Paul-Cleve- land series of hockey games played recently in the former city, is con- tained in St, Paul papers received in Kingston this week. "Wally" | mer, formerly of Kingston, and the Junior Froutenacs, starred in the two contests, which were both won by the western city, Elmer's team now has the leadership of group 2 in the United States' Hockey Associa- tion and will make a strong bid for the American amateur title. Cleve- land, last year's champions, are now practically out of the race, their chances have been spoiled by the fast St. Paul aggregation. "Wally" comes in for a goodly share of the praise handed out by the St. Paul papers for the two victories, and he is considered ome of the best . all- round men on the team. Kingston of the western team for the rest of the win- ter with keen interest, and it is hop- ed that the team which has a King- ston representative in its ranks may win the American championship. Another note of interest in the St. Paul papers was the mention of "Mike" Goodman, former Winnipeg Falcon star, whose eye will be quite well in a few days, after some weeks of uncertaihty as to whether it could be saved or not after his serious ac- cident. The well-known "Mike" stars with the Duluth outfit which [+ El-| {Bave it, NEWS FIMUAY, FEBRUARY 54, 1988, BADMINTON TO BOXING + UTTLE BITS. | .

They will have to work, as the withdrawal of the expected stars throws them en- tirely on their own merits. Po Some of that interyear hockey at Queen's could well be studied by the O.H.A. and intercollegiate teams of the city. Too bad Queen's III. cannot chal- lenge for the Memorial Cup, Now that they've hit their stride a little again; it would be interesting to see them up against the junior O.H.A. winners, 5 Not 'tall oldtimer, not 'tall. On the contrary, Kingston fans have lost most of their respect for the senior 0.H.A, as a high-calibre hockey fac- tory, Their téam werk is good now and then, we admit, and they are no slouches in getting down the ice, but after a season together, either ome of the All-Star teams used by King- ston would be giving them pointers. The County League men are hav- ing a great old time, Wolfe Island, Barriefleld or Cataraqui, and Sun- bury will have to settle the final bat- tles. Medical Game, In eh interyear hockey match at the Arena yesterday afternoon Meds. 23 defeated their old enemies Meds. 24 by the score of 8 to 4 and after three strenuous periods of hockey. Many old-timers were on deck with both teams and added not a little to their former glory. "Johnny" Evane and Grattan were the star forwards for '24 and Quinn; in goal, and Ryan on the defence put up a great de- fensive argument. However, the next to marvellous work of Flanagan. in the opposite goal and Grant and Bell an score-getters, proved too much for the "hird year and they were given to mitten in spite of desperate efforts to even things up. Tendered a Banquet. Les Momtagnards, champions of the Ottawa League, and who defea'- ed the R.M.C. team recently by 5 to 2, 'were tendered a banquet in Ot- tawa on Tuesday night, at which many well known sportsmen and of- ficlalg of the capital city were pres- ent. Plans are now being made by the champions to make a strong bd for the Allan cup this year. However, Montrealers should have no kick coming, as they have a thing or two to steady the nerves when they need it. Canadians can put St. Patrick's out of second place ip the N.H.L. by the use of a lot of "ifs," or rather, by making the "ifs" into "dids." William Oliver of St. Paul, ama- teur indoor skating champion of the northwest, won the outdoor title at the northwestern outdoor skating | races. He won first place in each of | the four senior events. Wille Loughlin of Philadelphia was given the judges' decision over Ralph Schappert of Wilkesbarre, Pa., at the end of their 12-round bout at Troy, N.Y. The boxers are welterweights. Leonard Youngs of Montreal was outpointed by Tommy Conroy of Troy in the ten-roynd semifinals. There is a deal of speculation as to whether the winner of the Harry | Greb and Tom Gibbons shuffle will be | elected an opponent for Jack Demp- sey. While it is generally believed either man would be too small 'o tackie Dempsey, it should not be fo1- gotten that either 1easures up to tha proportions of Carpentier, Jack Clifford of St. Paul gave Joe two rounds thet the main bout on the Elks boxing show was stopped to needless punishment. won his bout at Philadelphia from Capt.
