Many thought that Kingston would hava an easy time all the way through the season just as they had in the first few games but it was a lucky break that gave them a win over the Belle- ville team the last time they played here.

"Phone '1042. - Victoria Street Entries for the ladder tournament at the Kingston Tennis Club were opened Tuesday and the first to register was Dr. W. A. Jones, president of the club. There will be a grand rush for registrations from now on. Friday evening's game between the Peterbofo and Kingston teams should be productive of the best baseball yet to be put up by the Central Ontario League in Kingston. Present indications are that Al. Heckman will be sent to the slab, and if so, the local batters will have to keep both eyes on the ball all the time.

To play the real bunker shot, stand behind the ball, which should be in line with the lest toe, the right foot may be forward a little, giving an open stance. Any insecurity may not be detected until the swing is in progress, and then will be fatal.
