For tbe last two snonths now, the Blue Devils have been training faithfully and now they arc about to enter the last and hardest phase of their campaign for the Ontario title, Four entries have survived the barriers so far and to- morrow either McCormicks, of Tot. anto, or the Blue Devils, of this city, must 'suffer elimination. Record Crowd Expected The Blue Devils must win tomor- row afternoon and not only du they know it but all the local sport tans of this city and district are aiso auc- quainted with the fact and as a re- sult, a record attendance is expected.

The boys know thut they must win and ahey know what they are up against and they are going to give their very best to win this all-important game and so earn the right to advance into the finzls for the championship, against the winners of the Sarnia-Petrolia series. McCormicks a Strong Team If the Blue Devils win tomorrow, all credit to them. - They are going 16 meet a sweet rugby machine and the issue is very doubtful.

The average weight of the team is almost as great as that of the Blue Devils and the average age is just a little under that of the local team, being 22 years. The Mentor of the McCormick Men of Might is none other than Ot- to Glatt, coach and manager who js all-round athlete, He has played wad been connected with baseball, baske:- ball and rugby. The team which he is in charge nf is comprised of a bunch of young rugby players, most of 'whom have played and starred in Toronto In- tercollegiate rugby and several of whom have had O.R.F.U, experience in Senior company. Their lineup is a formidable one. Hooker, No. 1, is the Captain and plays at outside, He came from Argo Seniors where he starred last season, Vaile, their cen- tre half played with Balmy Beach last season and is a wonderful ball- carrier, Ross, their flying wing, docs the kicking and is a great player. | "Biddy" Baker," last year quarter back of the Argo Juniors, handles the | team from the pivot position, Jimmy | Reid and George Shields are the hard | hitting linemen of the squad. Hill, the midget snap, of the team, weighs only 125 pounds. He never talks but tackles. Apparently, Alex Gray is going to have a real duel with this | "Dyna Mite." | In all they are a great team and the Blue Devils will have to play their best rugby, all the time, if they hope to emerge with a victory The following are the numbers of the team.

An Interna- tional circuit franchise was secured from Niagara Ialls, with the club taking the name of the "Yellow- Jackets,'" once famous ice men of | Pittsburg. | To-night's game was a thriller from the outset, and the score in no way indicates the closeness of the joust, Both clubs battled in ham- mer-and-tongs fashion without al score during the first period, theu | Curley Goldsworthy uncorked a | wild swing from scrimmage and] dented the local cage for the first | counter after 11 minutes of play in | the second period. Two Fast Goals Going into the last period, the Yellow-Jackets found themselves trailing by one point. They fought furiously to even the count, but just have the situation under their con- trol a penalty foiled them, However, London also was pun- ished several times in the final per- more fortunate and managed to snare two more goals, Grosvenor scored both, 12 seconds separating his thrusts into the scoring zone. Goldsworthy assisted him on the | second counter. | LONDOS DEFEATS DUSEK St, Louis, Nov. 14.--Jimmy Londos, recognized in some states as the world's heavyweight wrestl- ing champion, defeated Rudy Dusek, of Memphis in a match hore Wednesday night, Londos wou the match with a body slam after 57 minutes of wrestling. | 13 | Nut Coal, Per Ton | ETT Are You Taking Ad- vantage of Our Pro- git Sharing Plan ?

Jt is hit to the extreme back of the court and must be high out of reach if the opponent is in the front half of the court. To return this shot the player is forced to run and stretch having to hit the clear hard and above the height of the shoulder, This beconres a great tax on endurance since the adversary must put in extra energy to niake the shot effective. There are two types of clear: The HIGH CLEAR, which above the opponent's racket and the | Pr | VERY HIGH CLEAR, which 1s played as high and deep into the court as possible, To he most effec- tive, play the CLEAR into the op- ponents backhand corner where its value is greatest. Practice clearing to this area from all positions of your own court, Play the clear whenever you are forced out of position and need extra time to get back to the base of your operations.
