Frank O'Rourke and Manager Howley had no difficulty in agreeing on terms, the pair "splitting the dif- ference." As in the Jones case, the Toronto club just completed the O'Rourke deal in time as the next day the player received an offer for an outlaw league in Wisconsin for more money than the Toronto club are paying him. He would have ac- cepted the outlaw offer, he said, had he not heard from Manager Howley.

To celebrate the closing of a suc- cessful season in the Junior Juvenile Hockey League, the Boohoo Club re- cently neld a turkey banquet in the Queen's cafeteria, The toast tothe team was proposed by W. Bird, Mel- ford Pennock, the captain, respond- ed and appealed to his caums for a continuation of that sportsmanship for which they had already become known. The toast to the league, by Harry Bird, who recalled some of his own amusing experiences in connec- tion with similar associations, was replied to by Harold Buck, the team's manager. He paid tribute to the hard-working league officials who had made the season such a suc- cess. George Stewart, the club's mentor, when making the clesing speech of the evening, reviewed the short but eventful history of the club and ended by stating that the Boo- Hoos Club was an éitirely separate and self-supporting organization Napanee Lacrosse Club. The Napanee Lacrosse Club has reorganized for the season. The of- ficers are: Hon. president, J. §. Ham; president, R., R.

Willard is willing, he said, to meet Firpo, the South American, if neces- sary to obtain a match with Demp- |eey. Will Not Permit Lodge To Battle With Firpo The New York State Athletic Com- mission announced it would not per- mit Farmer Lodge of Minneapolis to box' Luis Firpo, South American heavyweight, at the American Lea- gue Stadium on May 12th, The commission ruled that Lodge was not a suitable opponent for Fir- po, and ordered that a selection be made froml Jim Herman of Omaha, Neb., Jack Renault of Canada, and Jack McAuliffe II, of Detroit.

Young Mr, Sanford--he has barely passed twenty-one--comes naturally by his love of a good horse. He is the son of John Sanford, a member of the Jockey Club, the owner of the |Hurricania Farm at Amsterdam in | this State, and grandson of that fine {ol sportsman the late General Ste- phen Sanford. General Sanford never raced his horse until the Saratoga meeting in August, and before send- ing them to the home (training grounds he gave a day of sport to his fellow citizens of Amsterdam, clos- {ing the great mills of which he was {the head and declaring the day a holiday, That Sergeant Murphy, which was bought last year by Stephen San- ford, was the type of horse for a course like Aintree was shown In the race for the National in 1922, pugll- {istic kings to go througa with chal- | N PRA SA Ss 2A: : X GET RIGHT WITH NATURE Save Money--Ride A Massey If you buy 4 tickets for 25¢., six days a week, you pay for a MASSEY Wheel by Septembe ad them you own your own Street Car. ¢ WHY WASTE MONEY Your health will be better and yon will feel more like work whea you ride a Dicyele.

The judgment of the young American was vindicated when the chestnut gelding won the Scottish {Grand National two weeks before ithe Aintree contest. Since then the Irish bred chaser has been brought along with a win- ning at Aintree as the ultimate goal.
