10 LATEST LOCAL FANS ON THER TOES FOR MATCH TO-HORROW Junior Petes To Meet Circle 8ix in Junior 0. H. A. Second Round. The hockey fans are all alert for tomorrow night's big game between the Peterboro juniors and Circle-Six fn the second round of the junlor O.H.A. semi-finals, Kingston fans will have an op- portunity of seeing a full-blooded Chinese boy playing Canada's na- fonal winter game with the Petes. 4is is Cheu, the boy whose adapta- 'on to hockey so surprised the whole of Ontario when he started." The Petes team is a nicely rounded out- | fit and in goaler Lebarr they have a man who is hard to beat. Their regu" lar defence is Mulholland and Hol- land---quite a name combination-- but the former man has been ill and his place may be again taken by Thornton as was the case in the final game against Bowmanville. The Peterboro-Bowmanville series | was the one in which Referee Cum- mings got twisted up once more and Bowmanville rink was banned for the west of the season, the final game taking place at Whitby. The Petes captured the round ten goals to four, The centre player is McDougal, a elagsy performer, Collins, known for his baseball playing is one wing man And Chen, the Celestial performer, is . pm the other. M. McDougal and Wil. Hams, the substitutes, are only kent) on the bench because the team IS limiteq to six players. On the other hand, the Petes will run up against an outfit here that is certainly worth while: Blondie" rr THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG Grey is a goaler not to be smiled at in any company and Lawless and Melts, in front of him, can look after thelr work well. Tommy Kirby, the little shock-headed' sensation, who holds down centre, will give McDou- gall plenty to worry about and Chew will have to be on his job to look after the sharp-shooting "Buster" Hartley. Patterson, one of the most consistent performers playing hockey in Kingston, will likely be facing Collins. On the bench Laflamme and Lawlor will be ready to give assist- ance at any time, The teams will probably be: Peferboro--Goal, Lebarr; defence, Thornton or Mulholland and Hol- land; centre, H. McDougal; left wing, Collins; right wing, Cheu; subs., Wil- liams and M. McDougal. Circle-Six--Goal, Grey; defence, Lawless and Meltz; centre, Kirby; wings, Hartley and Patterson; subs., Laflamme and Lawlor, 2 "ESSIONALS ARE AFTER AMATEURS Pl The ~Sarnia Canadian-Observer; Amateur baseball in Ontario last year was of a high order and the result will likely be that professional lea- gue scouts will be around the bushes in increasing numbers during the coming season. Alex. Watts, the big outfielder of the Galt Terriers, twice amateur champions of Ontario, who is playing hockey with the Galt seniors this year, has been approached by the Bay City Minters for a tryout in the spring. The Galt report says that he has been made a tempting offer to turn pro., but they don't make offers in the Mint league unless the rookie makes good. Watts is a good bats- man and covers the outfleld in fine style. Norman Himes, shortstop for ALEXANDER ALEKHINE. Russian chess champion, recommends his favorite pastime as a dental anaesthetic when having a tooth pulled. enn Hemsley & Son ( Try Us for Watch and Clock Repairs 100 BROCK STREET Phone Soft Mixed Wood.

Stratford Beacon-Herald--"Sarnia never seems to get any place in hoc- key. They win their group series and then fall by the wayside, year after year. Their goalie is good but the others don't team properly, they work hard and have good condition, Mellon and Perry have experience, Clark {8 a great rusher, O'Brien is a fair back checker and the forward line shows interesting flashes of com. bination.

JOE RUDDY PROMINENT ATHLETE IS UNKNOWN Has Scored 1,400 Points at| Water Polo In Last Thirty Years. One of the greatest athletes in the world hasn't figured as much as Gene Baragen and Jack Dempsey in the news columns this year, but he is still among the champions although he began competing before Sarazen was born, writes Robert Edgren in the Detroit Free Press. Joe Ruddy of the N.Y.A.C., great- est water polo player in America and a first class swimmer, boxer, wrestler, "handball player, bowler. and all around strong man, is in his twenty- second year of competition under N, Y. A. C. colors. Ruddy has scored more than 1,400 points for the club in swimming and all around athletics. This is a world's record for point scoring by an In- dividual athlete. Ruddy wom many events before he joined the club, as he has been competing for over 30 years. He won his last swimming race Im 1893, 31 years ago. Joe says that he expects to go on winning for 10 years more, as he feels as"Tast and strong and full of endurance as he did whén a young- ster. He trains every day. His favorite exercise is halt a dozen games of handball. After that he swims, plays water polo, dives, bowls three or four games, shoots a little pool and calls it a day. When he takes a summer vacation he picks out some resort where he can indulge in all his favorite sports, every day. He is one of the strongest men in ath: letics, and is built like George Hack. enschmidt in his prime. Joe's favorite winter sport is go- ing swimming off the beach at Far Rockaway. One winter he went in every day. He kept a tent and a rubbing cot on the beach, where he dressed. First on the programme was a run in the snow, barefooted and wearing olny a light bathing suit. Then he jumped into the surf, swam out a couple of hundred yards, and came in to roll in the snow ang then dash for the 'tent and a hard rub- down, Joe never took a cold or had a day of sickness in his life, although a year of his usual routine would probably kill an ordinary man, New York, Feb. 26.--When Paul Berlenbach sailed into "Pat" Walsh and knocked him out inside of two minutes of the first round in Madi- son Square Garden Friday night there sat in the crowd a pale-faced serious young man who had gome to see what all this "Belting Fool" busi- ness was about. 3 He had some excuse.
