Play TILA. Strongly Opposed and De- cision Falls to Central On- Elected--Outlook Bright The Oshawa Baseball problem was definitely settled last night at a general meeting held in the In- dustrial Relations Building of the General Motors, when a large num- ber of players and followers of the sport gathered to elect the officers for the coming year and also de- cide as to which league the team will be entered in. ' The suggestion of entering the Toronto Industrial League was met by little favor and the entire assembly seemed to favor the en- tering of the Central Ontario Base- ball League. Many reasons were in ievidence to support this decision the chief among which were the finer spirit of sportmanship and enthusiasm displayed by the Towns that are in the C.0.B.L. The fact that group consists of Peterboro, Deloro, Belleville and Oshawa, 2 compact little group that does not necessitate overly long trips. The last but by no means the least reason was the location of the playing field of the Toronto In- dustrial loop being at Riverdale Park, midway between the viaduct crowd and the Greenwood Park League. With the decision to enter the C.0.B.L., a delegation was ap- pointed to attend the meeting that is to be held in Belleville in the near future. A. M. McDonald was elected to fill the position of President of the Club by an enthusiastic assembly, they, feeling that they had picked the one man that could lead them in the proper manner. The other officers elected last night are: Honorary Presidents -- Col. Frank Chappell, Messrs. A. Cooke, W. Daniels, J. Gibson, 8S. Gummow, A. W. Waderlow. Hon. Vice-Presidents -- Messrs. F. G. Chester, W. H. Clark, C. E. Hare, F. Heather, N. A. McLean, R. Stirling, H Thompson. President--A, M. McDonald. Vice-President--W. L. Mitchell. Secretary--E. Kallman, Business Manager--H.

CHEERS AND WATCHES FOR THE CHAMPIONS Port Arthur, April 2.--The citi- zens of Port Arthur turned out len masse yesterday to welcome their senior amateur hockey cham- pions when they stepped off the train, carrying the Allan cup, which has found a resting place here for the third time in five years. After first greetings and cheers at the C.P.R. station a parade was formed, and led by a military band, the team was carried through the main streets in a huge truck, decorated in the famous red, white and green, Port Arthur Hockey club colors, The route of the par- ade was lined with hundreds of cheering admirers and at Main street intersections, the best ef- forts of the police were required to maintain order in traffic. The members and officials of the team, with their wives, fam- ilies and close friends, were the guests of the city at an informal breakfast in the Prince Arthur hotel. Tonight they were guests of honor at a dance and reception when official addresses of welcome and presentations of gold watches to the players were made. During the next week or two, the players and officials of the team will be guests at social func- tions held by various organizations in the city. . NEW OUTFIELDER FOR RED WINGS Rochester, April 2.--George Watkins, outfielder, said by Texas league baseball critics to be an outstanding hitter, a great base runner, a fine fielder and a real hustler for any baseball team has oined the Rochester red wings. 'Watkins has been with the ST. Louis Cards this spring, but the task of displacing one of the group that includes Waddey Holm, Chick Hafey, Orsatti, Billy Southworth and Douthit, all candidates for positions in the Cardinal outfield proved too great and he was sent on to last season's International league champions.

A large group of followers of this club have signified their intention of coming down for the bouts next Monday and Tuesday. 0.B.A.A. PLANS LARGE.

DEARTH OF DISEASES AMONG BABIES IN TORONTO NOTICEABLE Toronto, Ont., April 2.--There is such a dearth of serious baby di- seases in Toronto that in order to demonstrate certain types to medi- cal students and postgraduates it has become necessary to have wax models made illustrative of these diseases. "We cannot pick up enough diseases among Toronto ba- bies to illustrate to our students what they will have to treat when they get out into the country," Dr. Alan Brown of the General Hospi- tal told the Local Council of Wo- men. This happy condition has been brought about by the super vision of Toronto's health depart- ment, the doctors and the women of this city. "It is safer, easier and cheaper to raise a baby in To- ronto than in any other part of the ,dominion," Dr. Brown declared. the winter sensa- the number two A STRONG, NEAT GARAGE AT A REASONABLE PRICE You can provide a snug, fireproof home for your car at a price below the usual cost of building a garage. your car under cover in a Keep PEDLAR'S "MAJESTIC" GARAGE This serviceable garage is comstructed with The panelled doors are roofing on a sturdy wood frame.

With the coming of more cold snaps the various sporting activities will be compelled to be laid up for a short time at least, and the only sat- isfaction these clubs can get is by holding inside meetings whereby they can complete all plans for the coming season before the season starts. Meetings for this purpose have been held by the different associations for the past three weeks and they are rapidly getting all the small details in first class shape, the result will be shown when the warm weather comes and all clubs are waiting to pitch right in without having to bother about these same details that would ordinarily be left to the last moment, of importance to the fans of these sports, they are the lacrosse meeting at the Council Chambers at the corn- er of Simcoe St. and Richmond at eight o'clock being held for the purpose officers for the year and the passing of plans and motions.

The business of a benefac- tor is to benefact. If anyone wants to give me a hundred dollars for the 'department of economics, I'll be glad to use it--but I don't want him to ask what I use it for.- "In McGill University," he con- tinued, "we have been asked to give all kinds of courses.

PIG GOES TO MARKET Falmouth, Mass., April 2.--The nursery: rhyme having to do with "This Little Pig Went to the Mar- ket" may easily have been based on fact. At any rate there is a lit- tle pig in this town that-not only does go to the market but which hauls a small express wagon behind him to bring back the groceries. The porker's name is Juker, and he is owned by Andrew Gomes. ach Saturday afternoon Gomes hitches Juker to a small express wagon and sets out on his bicycle to do the family marketing, the. pig trotting along close behind. Juker waits outside the stores while Gomes does hig shopping, grunting impatiently if his master is over long. When the packages have been stowed in the wagon the strange cavalcade, Gomes on his bicycle, the pig and the wagon fol- lowing, passes down Main street again en route home.

Thomas Bellis of Hamilton, Ont., placed thirteenth, covering the dis- tance jn 7.37. His elapsed time for Phil Granville, giant negro, also of Hamilton, was in a triple tie for sixteenth place. His time for the day was 7.55.30, and hig elapsed time 10.15.03. Seth Gonzales ou New Mexico and Pete Gavuzzi of England were tied with Granville. Finishing second in yesterday's 46 mile lap, Jules Cools of Bel- gium took the lead for the first two laps, Cools, third Sunday, came in behind Paul Simpson of Burlington, N.C.

The rookie backstop could not do anything right and, for that matter neither could the left- hander, who not only forced in a run with one of his five walks, but emitted a wild throw to second with a sure double play in sight. If he was bad, the backstop was worse, having two passed balls and making a wide throw to first in addition to neglecting the formal- ity of touching a runner coming in from third, evidently laboring under the impression that it was a forced play. C. C. M. LOSE INTER CITY FINAL Hamilton, Apr. 2--Canada Cycles of Toronto passed out of the Inter- city hockey series here last night when they suffered a 3-to-0 revesse at the hands of the Kitchener Green Shirts, intermediate champions of the O.H.A. But the score was not a good indication of the play, as the Queen City players had a fair share of the play, but lacked the finish of their opponents when in close. On numer- ous occasions in the final session Park, Collins, Armstrong and Grant got beyond the Kitchener defence, only to lay the rubber on Berner's pads or miss the target entirely. With the Kitchener team things were en- tirely different, for they took advan- tages of the opportunities afforded them and tallied enough counters to win, Seibert tallied Kitchener's first counter nine minutes after hostilities opened when he drove one from in- side the defense to Geddes which the Toronto goalkeeper could not get near. That ended the scoring until Detroit Canpros Lead in Records Toronto, Apr. 2.--The scoring and penalties records of the Cana dian league as issued by President Charles King of Windsor for' the regular which closed on March 22 show that Detroit players lead in both divisions, Goodfellow with a total of 34 points being the top scorer, while Rockburn served 176 minutes, just four minutes less than three hours, with the penalty timers. In actual goal-scoring Goodfellow shared the honors with Ken Doraty of the Toronto-Strate ford-Hamilton-Millionaires, each having 26 goals but Goodfellow had eight assists to five by Doraty. Frank Carson who went to the Windsor Bulldogs from the Mont- real Maroons was in third place, 1 point ahead of Wes King of London, Carson had the most assists dure ing the season with 12, while Steve Rice, of the much travelled Mil- lionaires was second with 11 and Joe Primeau of London third with 10. Of the 15 leading scorers, those that secured 20 points or more, Windsor provided four, while London and Detroit each had two marksmen in the select circle and the Millionaires one. Niagara Falls wos not represented. Carl Voss of London led the defence players in scoring with 20 points. Rockburn was not even threat- ened for the dubious honor of bejng the most penalized player in the league, as Happy Emms of Windsor was 72 minutes less and McFarlane of Kitchener was a minute less than Emms who, incidentally, was the only forward among the 16 players who served 70 minutes or more. BOSTON TIGERS 5, PROVIDENCE 1 Providence, R.I.,, April. 2.--The Boston Tigers took a commanding lead in their series with the Prov- idence Reds for the Canadian- American league championship by winning the second game $5. to 1 here last night. Boston took the first contest 3 to 0, and now needs but one more victory to clinch the title. the second period, when Heller and Schmaltz both scored for the Green Shirts. Heller's counter came aftet ten minutes' play, while Schmalta netted the puck four minutes later, The third period was goalless, but the Toronto team had chances enough to turn defeat into victory if they could have profited by them. Park and Armstrong stood out. for the losers, while Kuntz, Heller, Mol- son and Roth were best for Kitchen- er. oe in | ir SI IT -- | Ta Eh HIN filittes.
