GREGORY'S LEAGUE Last Friday seemed to De a bad bowling night for all the ladles, with the exception of Millie Hannan, who took the ladies' high single with 298 and also the hi triple with 734. It must be that the smoke gets in our eyes. Basil Murphy is still striking them down taking the men's high triple ain with 744 and Al Taylor taking the high single with 287.

'Whiz Bangs STORE LEAGUE The captains and executive of the league have been burning up, and we don't mean midnight oil only. The issues - involved have been quite con- tentious. One issue hinges on the other, that all important question of "ace" bowlers. They have decided to bar any new, one-bowl bowlers. The balancing of the league by the medium of handicaps or raising scratch has possibilities that may materialize at the end of the first section. Nothing definite to date, however. When the following teams met this is what we see: A. and P, got three from O.B.L., Nationals split with South Loblaws, Powells took three from Skinners, Hal- lidays split with Comcos, Algers drop- ped three to the Barbers, The Pros dropped three to Dominion -Store, Ped- lars took four from North Loblaws and the Silents dropped three from Collis', Pedlars rolled 3621, Algers 3652 and Barbers 3674, belleve it or not the great Comeos only rolled 3108, the lowest team score for the night.

FITTINGS SPORTS AND SOCIAL CLUB Last bowling night saw five teams whitewashed and only two teams break- ing even, making several changes in the standing. The Pattern Department squad final- ly lost one game, but after six nights of bowling have 23 points out of a possible 24 for a fine record. With only one scratch bowler on their team, they are a fine example of what good team work does and the other teams should take a few pointers from instead of kicking about a pack team. We see that the Top Hatters had a full team out and if they can get some practice in, they will do much better in the next two sections. The Fittings Majors shut out the Tool Room 4-0 to take over first place in A. Group and the Happy Gang with three bowlers rolling t Mas speeded up the game, except over 690 to take four points are close behind. With only three more nights in the first section of the schedule, it | looks like a photo-finish in A. Group, | with the honors going to the Pattern | Department in B. Group. V.e have two | | more sections of nine nig 3 each in| our schedule and we hope ; see some | {of the bottom teams buck ap and do | | better instead &f having the same | teams leading each section. Below is the league standing after | | Wednesday, October 27, and also the | | top scores of the night. We find that | the men's scores are beiter on the] whole, while the ladies had a bad | night.

By WALLY JZSAK Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, Oct. 29--(CP)--The in- trodyction this season of unlimited substitution in Canadian football was taken quietly for the most part. Players and fans alike adopted a wait-and-see policy as to whether the game would be speeded up or not, and whether a better and more active game woulderesult. Annis (Toronto Star) Stukus likes he rule and he thinks it definitely in the case of Ottawa Rough Ridérs. Riders use the unlimited sub- stitution rule more than any other club because of cne player -- Wilf Tremblay, says Stuke, "The best safety man in the game today, Tremblay is a sure catch, a good runner-backer of kicks, who can pick up plenty of distance by. himself, and one of the few safety men around who can shake a part- ner loose." : Stuke explains that as soon as Riders lose possession of the ball, Tremblay goes into the game while quarterback Bob Paffrath heads for the bench. "It pays off in two ways," claims Stuke. "Tremblay, who is just a little guy, isn't used up, while Paff- rath has a chance to talk over strategy with the master minds on the bench before going into action as quarterback when Ottawa gets the ball." Expensive Souvenirs Everybody at ore time or another has hoped a flying baseball or puck would land near him in the stands so he could keep it as a souvenir. And Ivan (Hamilton Spectator) Miller says that "if you think hockey teams have it tough on the matter of losing pucks that are flipped into the ¢rowd, consider what hap- pens to lacrosse teams!" Miller says that while watching a senior playoff in Vancouver re- cently he was told New Westminster Adanacs, runners-up to the Cana- dian Senior champion Hamilton balls during a season. His informant told him it was common to lose 4s many as 50 balls in a single game. "That's quite a drain on the ex- chequer!" exclaims Miller, Montreal Race Horse Has 'Ringer' Charge | New York, ' Oct. 29--(CP)--The | Thoroughbred Racing Protective | Bureau Incorporated said today it | has photographic proof that the | horse Don't Delay was run August 28 at the Montreal Blue Bonnets ees as a ringer under the name id. .

From its aristocratic beginnings, the Derby has come to mean per- haps the biggest single day in the year for little men in British sport. All over the country, in pubs, on street-corners, at work-benches, for weeks before the race the common- est topic is the Derby. Millions of pounds--most of it in small bets -- change hands the day of the race. Almost National Holiday Derby Day itself is practically a full-scale holiday in the London area. Thousands throng to the course, bringing picnic lunches and the children. Gypsies encamped on the spacious downs run every kind of sideshow you'd expect at a coun- try fair. After all the build-up, the | almost as an it's generally a event itself comes anti-climax. But red-hot horse race. The Derby course is one of the most testing 1'2 miles in England with its long uphill climb at the start, its breakneck downhill gal- lop "to storied Tattenham Corner, its sharp turn into the straight and then a heart-breaking uphill run for home. Greatest Derby jockey was the late 'Steve Donoghue, six times a winner. He was aboard Pommern and Gay Crusader in 1915 and 1917 and then triumphed at Epsom on Humorist (1921), Captain Cuttle (1922), Papyrus (1923) and Manna (1925). Hugged The Rail Legend has it Steve used to come around Tattenham Corner with his left boot hooked over the rail, so close, did he hug the inside. But Gordon Richards, the man who suc- ceeded Donoghue as Britain's pre- mier rider, has had 24 Derby mounts and never a victory. Like other British "classics," the Derby is for three-year-old colts and fillies, but historians tell the dark tales of a four-year-old ring- er, Maccabeus, that won it in 1844. Perhaps the most sensational re- newal was in 1913 at the helght of the suffragette agitations. As the field entered the home stretch one at End Career | Brilliant athletic career of Char- ley Fonville, the world's record holder in the shot put, is at an end.

Aga Khan's Record Most consistent owner in recent years has been the Aga Khan who scored with Blenheim (1930), Bah- ram (1935) and Mahmound (1936) and owned a half share of My Love, this year's victor. One American-bred Iroquois (1881), has won the Derby. French successes were registered by Gladi- ateur (1865), Durbar II (1914) and Bois Roussel (1938) but only two years dgo did the Derby become a happy hunting ground for French invaders. Pearl Diver won it for France that year, giving a four-length beat- ing to the best horses in Britain; and in 1948 My Love was another easy winner with his compatriot Royal Drake, second. Sport Shorts " From Britain By SHAUN McQUILLAN Canadian Press Staff Writer London, Oct. 28 (CP)--It seems there's a good chance the Jack Solomons' monopoly of the promo- tion side of the professional fight game in southern England being broken, Sir Arthur Elvin, Wembley chief who staged the Olympic Games, is considering a return to matching beak-busters. Elvin already does a leading line in boxing by catering for the ama- teurs, Under him the Wembley Em- pire Pool, where tournaments are held, became known as "the home of Amateur Boxing." Britain's leading sports impresario has already started his plans. They are: 1. He has ordered a new ring and expeots delivery within a month. 2. He will not re-enter the pro- fessional fight promotion business until he can promote a world title fight. 3. He is actively engaged in choosing a match-maker. In pre- war days Elvin added fresh lustre to sock-swapping by staging such famous scraps as the world's fly- weight classic between the late Ben- ny Lynch and Small Montana and another globe-girdling get-together when Len Harvey pluckily but un- successfully challenged John Henry Lewis for the world's cruiserweight championship. + ok oF A big step forward in finding and coaching young cricketers is plan- ned at Lord's cricket ground by the M.C.C. High on the agenda for action is a scheme to build an indoor school where these youngsters will be tested and judged by great play- ers in the game. Nothing can be done until a building licence is available. The M.C.C., probably bearing in mind the set-back in home country crick- et at the hands of the Australian tourists last season, hope the au- thorities responsible will regard Britain's cricket revival as a mat- ter of some urgency. The idea is not to make the new school a preserve for members and their friends. It will be open to the whole country. But to save Lords authorities from having to deal with daily queues of youngsters fancying their chances as future Bradmans, Comptons, or Lindwalls, a schgme is in the wind for appli- cation through clubs or counties. Most . first-class counties have their coaching schemes, but indoor schools for winter play are not gen- erally available.

But they found it impossible to get close enough to the wily geese. The big birds took advantage of high water and remained near the cen- tres of the sloughs and lakes which resulted from spring floods 'on the Saskatchewan River and its tribu- taries. . From their vantage point the geese were able to spy the hunters | long before the hunters could move | within shotgun range in boats or by wading. Most of the United States sports- men who visited this region con- fidently expected to ship home frozen geese. But this aspect of their trip disappointed them, though | they were pleased with the results of their duck hunting. Many brought their boats with them, but only a few brought re- trievers. Those who did so found | the dogs proved their worth among the rushes and "weeds of the new | ponds and sloughs. A. H.L. HOCKEY CHIPS By The Canadian Press Indianapolis Capitals edged out Cleveland Barons 3-2 Thursday night in an American Hockey League game for their fifth straight victory on home ice. Two last-period goals by Johnny Mariucei and Barry Sullivan gave St. Louis Flyers a 4-4 deadlock with New Haven Ramblers. The Caps took a two-goal lead in the first period, Cliff Simpson scor- ing the markers. Goals by Freddie Thurier and Pete Leswick tied for the Barons but late in the third period Pat Lundy accounted for the winning tally for Caps. Ken Davies scored twice for the Ramblers, his opener coming mid=- way in the first period sending New Haven into the lead. Steve Black evened the count for the Flyers | before the session ended. In the second stanza Norm Tustin {and Fred Brown tallied once apiece | for St. Louis. Davies got his second | counter and George Johnston scored | New Haven"s final goal. Sports Roundup | "Oh, yes," said one American re- | turning home, well be on Mars. They're just sit- ting us out." Game and fisheries officers and the tourist information bureau of The Pas Chamber of Commerce re- ported issuing 124 shooting licences here this year, compared with 112 last year. However, some visitors obtained their licences in Winnipeg en route here. Flash Hollett Signs Up With Senior Marlies By The Canadian Press Age has come to the aid of youth. 04 Toronto Marlboros, with hopes of | scrambling from the . Senior On- tarioo Hockey Association cellar position, picked up added strength Thursday when they signed 36-year- old Flash Hollett. The former National Hockey League star, playing coach of Kit- chener-Waterloo Flying Dutchmen in the 1947 season, came out of a short retirement to take up de- fensive duties with the locals. Joe Primeau's squad--one of the youngest in the league--has been on the short end in their first three | starts this season and with Hollett's experience hope to make a good showing against the third-place Owen Sound Mercurys when they make their first Toronto appear- ance tonight. In tonight's other senior game Stratford Indians meet Hamilton Tigers. Three games will be run off in the junior circuit.
