Aura Lee appears to be every bit as formid- able as the Irish team, and the group battles between these aggre- gations should revive memories of the De la Salle-Aura Lee games of 1917, when "Red" Green, "Babe" Dye, "Duke" McCurry, Jess Spring, Jack Cain and "Fonce', Ingoldsby were starring for *'Del" and players like "Billie" Burch, Stewart Hog- arth and Vernon Forbes were play- ing for Aura Lee, University of Toronto is another team 'that will bear watching. The collegians played two games against St. Mary's in the S.P.A, series. the first resulting in a 4 to_4 score, In the next St. Mary's won by 4 to 3, and the count about indicated the relative merits of the old rivals. Toronto Canoe Club and Parkdale Canoe Club are the other entrants and both are strong. They did good work in the S.P.A. series, Parkdale giving Aura Lee an interesting bat- tle. 'The Red, Rangers also made Aura Lee hustle to take down a close verdict. , Bt. Michael's,who won the "prep." | school S.P.A. title after winning hard-fought games against Upper Canada College and University of Toronto Schools, showed that the school representatives will be dan- gerous when they held Aura Lee to adtol vigtory, two of the winners' goals being secured in the last per- fod. UTS, UCC, SAC, and 8. M.C. all look strong. The race pro- mises to be close and exciting, From all over the province have come glowing accounts of the strength of the junior entrants, The London team, aided by Lowery of the seniors, beat Owen Sound twice, and have championship aspirations, but the loss of Lowery will make a big difference. Woodstock, Strat- ford and the Kingston Circle Six are other highly rated aggregations. BIGGEST WINNER But Never Bets a Penny on the Races, The Aga Khan, an Indian prince, with some 1,100,000 francs, heads the list of winning owners fof the season of flat racing just concluded, the most successful gince the Armis- tice. For the first time in the history of French racing. since 1909 a French jockey had the honor of leading the field in the number of winning mounts. Henri Semblat, after a neck and neck duel with Guy Garner of Kentucky through- out the'last tw, months of the sea- son, finally pulled away from his American rival and finished with 89 winners to Garner's 83, The rivalry between the English and American schofls of training horses ended im favor of the for- mer. The Aga Khan is the head of the Mohammedan Church in Indip, and the spiritual chiet of 20,000,000 In- dians. He never bets a cent on the chances of hig horses and is satis- fied with winning the stakes. EMPTY SHELL. Same Skin But Not Nearly the Same The skin of the world-famous thoroughbred Tracery, which died last August, was offered at auction by the Messrs. Tattersall at - New- market, and brought £40. The sale was for the benefit of the Bentick Benevolent Fund, and the buyer was R. C. Dawson, the prominent English. trainer. Among the races won by Tracery was the classic St. Leger. He was 'subsequently sold to-go to the Ar- gentine for £63,000. He was re- turned to England last year, his death being a great loss to the horse-breeding industry. 100-to-1 Shot, Horses are no easier to judge than other kinds of competitive - flesh. Around Michigan in September, no one, including the 'great Yost, thought enough of Benny Friedman to look at him twice. Then Michigan was murderad by Illinois, Something had to be done, Friedman could throw a forward pass, Michigan decided to take a chance on him, Friedman immedi- ately changed Michigan from an or- dinary football team into a great football team.
