But lanky "Hank" Hill was worth a dozen such victorâ€" ies at that stage of the schedule. The team was definitely "IN" as far as the second half of the schedule was concerned. As it is now Peach Kings are short a shifty centre player of no little promise for the rest of the season, if not for good. A broken small bone at the base of the spine is the verdict. Rumours have been flying thick and fast since that night. The most imâ€" portant is that concerning a benefit game at the end of the season with Peach Kings playing some outside team, possibly Ports. After â€" all, "Hank" gave his best in trying to cement a victory already ‘"in the bag"‘. "Dyke" Lawson must have seen me come into the Arena last Friday night. I didn‘t get there until the final‘ period .. . The score was 3â€"2 for Ports .. . Somebody tells me <the Kings didn‘t like my. forecast . . . "Dyke" goes in and ties the score . . .

The red light flashes ... ./It‘s a goal . . . The game ends with the score 4â€"3 in favâ€" our of Peach Kings. If anyone can beat the goalie, seven chances out of ten it‘s "Dyke" Lawâ€" son. Of late his eagle eye has been focused continually on the open spots of the net. Go to it, "Dyke", and the rest of the team too, we‘re all with you. Peach Kings are now regarded as the team to beat for group honours and all Grimsby and district wants VINEMOUNT Sportorially Yours SMITHVILLE By Ian Murdoch Fortyâ€"five cottontails in a twoâ€"day rabbit drive headed by Chester Nash, with three companions, is a fairly good bag for this season when all reports from the district say that there are not 25 per cent. as many rapbits as a year ago. the weekend in Toronto Mrs. Geo.

Next Tuesday‘s game between Fort Erie and the Buds has also been postponed due .to home scheduling of Kings, but will probably be played either on the 31ist or on February 4th. The Buds are deterâ€" mined to finish their schedule despite their lengthy series of losses and deâ€" serve full credit. for . their gesture. Probably you aren‘t aware of the fact, but Peach Buds have yet to ~play a game with their complete team in uniform. Injuries and illnesses have kept one or more out of the \game since early last month. Hugh Liddle is the latest to be affected, having an attack of the "flu‘". Mrs. Beadle and Mrs. Booth spent The veteran Howie Morenz started in hockey as a goalie but after being scored on 22 times in one game, he turned in his pads and quit. As long as Bob Robertson doesn‘t lose faith and do this, Grimsby‘s hockey future should be OK. _ _For the first time in over twenty years Canada will not play in the Davis Cup competition this season. Officials decided that, as the United THIRTY MOUNTAIN | STONEY CREEK States authorities would not agree to play the North American tie at a later date in the year than hitherto, giving Canadian players a better chance to get in their stride, Canada would not enter the Davis Cup comâ€" petition. Taking his cue from the St. Louis Cardinals and other baseball teams, Clare Brunton, managingâ€"director of the St. Louis Eagles has organized a "‘knotâ€"hole" group to be known as the "Eagleeye Gang‘". The group will be composed of students in grade and ‘high schools and will be admitted to certain games without charge. Instead, however, Canadian players will compete at Wimbledon in the English tournament in July. Followâ€" ing the Wimbledon matchés the Canâ€" adians will tour other English centers and will journey up into Scotland to play representatives of Eastern and Western counties in August. Officials of the Grimsby â€" Hockey Club would be well advised to take a hint. A group of "Peachviewers," or something like that, admitted gratis to junior games and a couple of the reâ€" maining intermediate fixtures would do the teams an inestimable amount of good. Primarily it would give inâ€" creased morale to them; secondarily it would make future hockey "steadâ€" ies"; and finally it would make future prospective players more desirous of getting on one of the two local O.H.A. teams.
