The record of the Peach Kings shows that they are credited with twentyâ€"one games of which they have won seventeen on the ice, had one default to them, tied one and lost two. In the twenty games played the team has secured 87 goals; 39 in their group games and 48 in the round games, while they haye only had 40 goals scored against them, 16 in the group games and 24 in the playâ€"offs. They have averaged four and sevenâ€"twentieths goals per game and have only had an average of two goals a game scored against them. The following table shows the Peach Kings‘ games and the scores for the whole season: Toronto Amateur Hockey Association winners were next drawn against the Kings but they refused to play and Grimsby got the round by default and three days later went against the crack New Hamburg team. The New Hamburg boys a year ago had sixteen straight wins to their credit and were put out of the running by Niagara Falls. This year they had not suffered defeat when they met Grimsby and they were a most formidable foe. In Grimsby the Kings won 2â€"0 and also won in Hamburg 3â€"2, and journeyed on to Kingston where they took the college town lads into camp 3â€"1, and on Saturday night cinched the championship by an 8â€"3 win. With the exception of the game in Brantford the champions did not have one game in the rounds that was to be compared with their group games. This Niagara group is certainly the hectic group of the O.H.A. and the Kings‘ experience this winter has proven that. Cayuga was the first team to fall before them, first in the Haldiâ€" mand county capital by 5â€"3 and at home here 9â€"1. Then came Brantâ€" ford and more hard luck. The Brants went down fighting in Grimsby by a 7â€"2 score but before the return game was played the ‘flu put Artie Clark to bed and Reid came near following suit. The game in Brantâ€" ford was nearly a carnage and the Kings were lucky to get home alive let alone with only a 3â€"2 defeat, their first one of the season. Port Colborne had been travelling the road of victory all winter and then got tangled up in a thirtyâ€"minute overtime game in Dunnville. Grimsby then too them on at home and trimmed them up 3â€"0 in a whale of a game. It was thought the Dunnville tie would be played first, but such was not the case and the Kings were ordered into Port Colborne to play off their tie game. This was a titantic struggle but the champs‘ emerged with a 5â€"4 victory and started on their road to the championâ€" ship. ed a certificate by the O.H.A., and Hayhoe had not yet rounded into shape. This team had fought snowdrifts and cold winds for three hours to get into the canal town by nine o‘clock. It was nineâ€"thirty before the game got under way and it was thirty minutes after midnight when it finished with the score tie, five all, after playing thirty minutes‘ overtime. The two Dunnville games were real speedâ€"fests and tested the boys to the utmost. In Dunnville they pulled out a 4â€"2 win in one of the hardest fought games of the year, while at home, they defeated the Mudcats 6â€"2. Welland proved an easy victim at home when they were trounced 8â€"0, but the same cannot be said of the Falls for the Kings had to step to town all night to beat them 1â€"0, and the same applied in the Falls when the locals won out 3â€"1. Grimsby opened the season in Port Colborne in none too good shape. "Bo" Farrell was on the hospital list from a broken leg receivâ€" ed in Niagara Falls two weeks previous, George Horne had been refusâ€" Three nights later the boys went into Welland and again went a half hour overtime in order to pull out a 4â€"2 victory. ‘These two games were enough to break the fighting spirit of any team. The rinks were small and the light poor and the travelling most brutal, for any team, let alone one that was forced to play shortâ€"handed. But that fighting spirit that was destined to carry them to the top was manifested at all times and they came through with flying colors,. _ § En cce E00e Ne n eer e 0 Ee E20e en ee00 Hon on e e ce e en c200 en e Een E2 en en en en ze e Een c en nc 000000 ECCC ICEAEINE T0 "Ever since that memorable night in Port Colborne: Tuesday, December 30th, 1924, the Peach Kings have had one long, hard row to hoe in order to reach their present position at the top of the championâ€" ship ladder. For the second time in two years they have brought the intermediate championship to the Fruit Belt, Niagara Falls turning the trick last year, and this only goes to prove the statement that the team that can win this group can almost win the championishp. Not conâ€" tent with winning the intermediate championship the boys slipped into Toronto and startled the hockey world by handing the famous Soo Greyâ€" hounds a 3â€"2 lacing and becoming temporary possessors of the Allen cup, only to lose it to the Falls by one goal.

First Stanley Globe on behalf of the Metal Craft Co. donated a trophy for the league. What this will eventually be is not known but Stan. is working on the proposition and you can bet it will be something worth while. Then along came St. John and Shaw, the quality butchers and donated a $5.00 War Saving Certificate for the lady making the high individual score of the season, in team play. The girls are not doing bad. Next came Clarence Lewis, Canaâ€" dian Representative of the Hardie Sprayer, offering a $5.00 certificate for the highest indivdual score of the season, to the boy or girl between the ages of 14 to 16 years. This should cause a lot of excitement among the younger class of bowlers. SPORTISMSâ€"The way the ladies have taken to this bowling game I‘m athinkin‘ that there is going to be a lot of dirty dishes in the sinks before Spring is sprung, . . I am not going to"be surprised, when I walk into the Bowlaway, some evening, when the ladies are in posâ€" session, to see Little Georgie walking around with a pair of Davey Thomson‘s Kilts on, bowâ€"legs, hairy knees and all. . . Teams bowling in the different leagues are reminded that they must be at the Bowlaway to start their games on time. Idle alleys are money losers and teams that turn up late for their games will lose out for they will have to stop play when the time limit is up whether they have completed the three full games out. . . Two of the teams in the Peach Queen‘s League â€"the Golden Jubilees and the Joan Hales, are composed of girl emâ€" ployees of the United Distilleries. Manager Vic. Patenaude, to the team winning its game, each week, give one hour‘s time off from work, with pay, for them to go and practice, Nice gesture. . . George McNamara, now head of a large governmental construction company, is going to hold a reâ€"union in Toronto early in February for the boys who formed the famous Greyhounds team of 1823 and 1924. He was coach of that team. To date I have not heard of any of the Peach Kings being inâ€" vited to the banquet. They put the Greyhounds out of competition in 1925. THREE MORE TROPHIESâ€" §SPORTOLOG Y By Bones Livingston, Sportologist Carson Clark . Hayhoe Four teams were whitewashed by the Kings, namely: Niagara Falls, Welland, Port Colborne and New Hamburg. The smallest score seâ€" cured by Grimsby was one, that beâ€" ing aganist the Falls, and nine was the largest score made in a game, that against Cayuga. The Soo Greyhounds game is a story in itself. Reid ... Burnside Horne ... McVicar The most goals scored on Fisher in any one game was five, this number being scored by Port Colâ€" borne in the first game. The team as a whole have been a pretty consistent bunch of goal getters, each man‘s quota being practically the same in the group and in the playâ€"offs. Captain Harry Reid not only led his men into batâ€" tle in every way all season but when the final figures are totalled it is found that the once "Scoreless Wonder" is the leading sharpshootâ€" er of the team. The final table of goals is as follows: 87 40 *30 minutes‘ overtime. **Replay of tie game. *Grimsby. *Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby. **Grimsby. Grimsby. Grimsby.
