The score was 4 to 8 and the winged-footed flanker gave one of the greatest ice exhibl- tions that any junior has in these parts in 'many, many years to score all his team's goals. Monarchs' vietory last night can be attributed to March and he al- one, for when he was resting they were mot the dangerous machine who held the sturdy Gunners at bay and presented the Western- ars with a one-goal lead on the se- ries. In the Memorial Cup finals the winners of two out of the three games annexes the junior champi- pnship of all Canada. More than seven thousand fans jaw these Lochinvars fromr out of the West submerge the Gunners phy at centre and Tabor om the right boards are tall and rangy though Gord. Peterkin on the right flank was lighter he matched his check, the elusive March, in size and in speed. Howe and Quinn furnished a relief division and the former was particularly effective. Their attacks bore a marked resem- blance to the system employed by Montreal Vies, with puckearrier go- ing in alone and the wings trailing him to pick up thé loose pucks and rebounds. OLYMPIC STARS SHATTER RECORDS March 21.--Phil Ed- wards, of New York University, one of Canada's 1928 Olympic team; Dave Griffin, Hamilton Olympic Club mile champion, and Ralph Adams, also of Hamilton Olympic Club, staged a combined onslaught on Canadian. indoor track records at the international indoor track championships under the auspices of the 91st A.A, at the Armories here tonight. The abony flash from British New Guinea streaked around the wood- en saucer in the greatest perform- ance of the meet, winning the 600 yards special in record time, and then capturing the 440 run in time Hamilton, ander the avalanche of speed in' the lirst half of a bitterly fought bat- lle and then saw the Ottawa plug- gers come back in the last period to draw up to within one goal of a tie as the gong rang out its final message. They saw two teams who opened the play to its limit and as the veteran Kingstonian, Jim Su- therland remarked, "played hockey all over the ice, not on half of it." Twenty-five Penalties Despite March's sensational play, and the fact that the teams playea short-handed over most of the route throuzh penalties, it was the opinion of the fans that the game did not provide the thrrilling situa. tions that studded the Marlhoro-St, Michael's title in the O, H. A. semi- finals, Twenty-five penalties wera meted out by the officials, and prae- tically every one was for a minor infraction of the rules. There was overmuch tripping and petty slashing throughout the contest, and the only near he-man fracas occurred when Armstrong and Williamson squared off after a mixup in front of the Monarecas goal in the third perind, Not a blow was struck hut the referees hanished the would-be combatants to the bhastile for four minutes. Monarchs took the lead in the tirst period by virtue of the lone counter of the frame; each notch- ed a marker in the middle stanza; and each crashed the other's ecita- del for two goals, At one stace of the final dash the Monarchs were leading by 4 to 1, and it was not until the final 25 seconds of play that the Gunners pinked the twine twice to get within striking distance. Gunners presented a compara- tively heavy, powerful machine, which showed if anything, an edge In favor of defensive strength, Mur- that was only a second slower than the record, In the 600 Edwards finished in front of three handicap men, the nearest of which had 50 yards, and when he chalked up & mark of 1.13 flat he upset the recognized Cana- dian indoor record of 1.20 1-5, made by Jack Tresidder, of To- ronto Central, in this city in 1911, The fastest time previously made in Canada, 11.13% set in 1896 at Moncton, N.B,, by J. F. Burke of the Boston A.A, also went to the boards. The quarter mile again saw the colored lad in the van at the finish, despite the fact that he had to give 35 yards to Ward of Ham- ilton Central Collegiate, a well- gaited quarter man, Adams Wins the Sprint Ralph Adams, formerly of, Uni- versity of Toronto, and now back again with the Hamilton Olympic Club, turned the first surprise ol the night when he nosed Jounny Fitzpatrick, of Varsity, out at the tape, Fitzpatrick came trom behind in a heart-breaking effort to beat his pal, but couldn't get up in time, Adams set a new Canadian record of 6 2-5 seconds for the 60 yard distance, eclipsing the record made by L. J, Sebert of To- ronto in. 1910, Fitzpatrick got away to-a poor start, Lloyd Hahn, world famous Neb- raskan miler, failed to approach any records in his special mile, tak- ing four minutes and twenty-six seconds to negotiate the distance. The frigid atmosphere was partly to balme for his slow time, His ap- pearance created considerable in- terest, however, With 2,000,000 more women than men voting in England, Sir Frederick Hall predicts a "petti- coat government."

Manager O'Hara's squad may not be as large as that possessed by some of the other clubs but what it lacks in quantity it makes up in quality. And the party is one less tonight as a re- sult of the abrupt divorcement of Outfielder Daubenspeck from Fred Burchell's little list. The youngster was only a bill of expense at the best and Manager O'Hara doesn't know whether Bugs Hersche, who recommended him, was playing a joke on the club or sent him along in good faith. He is rather inclined to think that the ex-clown of the Leafs was up to his cld tricks. "Dauby" sprung a new one in explanation of his sorry showing, claiming that last Fall he had his nose broken by a pitched ball and that it caused him much pain when- ever he made a violent move. re also said that his eyesight was af- fected by the injury and that he suffered on 'occasions: from nose- bleeds. : No Regrets Expressed All of which may be so but his general deportment on the playing field was such that it gave every- body concerned a decided pain and his enforced retirement. will not oc- casion any great regret for all that he was a likeable youth, His final words before he took his departure was that he would be back but ne won't if one Willlam O'Hara sees him first. The outfield problem which was causing the Toronto. Club master- minders much worriment is in a fair way of being settled with the acquisition of Clayton Sheedy, of Baltimore, With the hard-hitting all around athlete on the job, flanked by Rabbitt and probably Jacobson and Keyes and Sexton in reserve, the Leafs will be pretty well fixed in this department. Sheedy will be here on Saturdsy. A wire to that effect was received from» him today and naturally Mr. O'Hara was much elated at Shee- dy's prompt response to his mes- SPOR1 SNAPSHO1S does not lovk very big. ever show on Toronto ice.

Although Hooley Smith was not satisfied apparently at Ottawa, the youthful left winger, Hec Kilrea, likes the Capital City, and yesterday signed a three year contract with the Senators, into one of the best forwards in the N.H.L. which means he is right up there with Morenz, Jolia, George Hay, Bill Carson and the rest. Regina and Ottawa arc fighting it out for the junior not been represented in the Dominion finals.

Sheedy Satisfied | Bill Webb and Les Burke con- sider that the Toronto Club made a great move in buying the former Oriole and look to see him perform even better in the livery of the Leafs than he did when caparison- ed in the tcggery of the Birds, For one thing he will. be with a club that he has long wanted to join and for another he will be in con- genial company, He was never sa'- isfied at Baltimore and made no hones about the matter. Jack Dunn and all his works were anathema to him, Joe Rabbitt should be in to- morrow and the arrival of the speed boy is being looked for with much interest. He hit something like .360 in the Western League last season and as Sheedy batted .342 in the International, it can be gathered that the Leafs will have a real punch in the outfield, | something they lacked last season. | It only remains for Jacobson to come to himself and Toronto will have a fly-chasing contingent hard to beat, No Word From Collins Nothing has been heard from Rip Collins at this end. Word that he was headed for this part of the large and expansive United States was received in a wire from the To- ronto headquarters of the club, He cannot come too soon to suit Man- ager O'Hara, as the other pitchers on the staff are making rapid pro- gress in thejr training preparations and Collins will be badly handi- capped if he delays reporting much longer. Don Songer was an arrival to- day. He was delayed owing to illness in his family. He came along too late to take part in the prac- tice, but will be in uniform tomor- row. The southpaw is many pounds overweight, but says that his arm, which troubled him last Fall, is in good shape and that he will win his share of the games next Sum- mer. TOO MANY LEGISLATORS (Frony St. Mary's Journal-Argus) Quite an agitation is under way for the amalgamation of the three Maritime Provinces. We are over- crowded with legislatures and leg- islators. The small Province of Nova Scotia not only maintains within its lilliputian borders a Legislative Assembly but an Exe- cutive Council or Senate. The same idea of cutting down might be effectively introduced in West- ern Canada. There the. four prov- inces have magnificent legislative buildings, any one of which should be large enough for the whole four provinces. In the federal field, one cannot visit the Dominion capital and see the two Houses in session without being impressed with the idea that a smaller number of men could carry on as effectively. The same thing applies to our Local Legislature, which now numbers over a hundred M.P.P.'s. Coming nearer home, we find county councils should still come together several times a year, although most of the work they used to do is pow handled through the pro- vineial highway department and through permanent officials. We hope these Down East agitators will succeed in their object and thereby set a ball rolling that will lead to further scrapping of a cost Hawk centre, were the participants in the fight which was precipiiat- ed when they collided in a fast play.

The combination of Rogers Hornsby and Bell, it is predicted, will go a long way toward helping the clinch the pennant. Bell did his hest work under the management of Hornsby when he was piloting the Cardinals to a world champion- ship. WATERDOWN PUPILS MAY BE LOCKED OUT Milton, March 21.--An ultima- tum was received by the Halon County Council today from the High School Board of Waterdown, stating that the Trustees would not allow pupils from Halton County to attend the school unless the county would pay 100 per cent. of the cost of maintenance. 1f this is not done the pupils will he turned out of the school on April 2. The county was willling to pay 80 per cent., as provided un- der the act, WATER BEFORE MEALS (Letter in New York Herald Tri- bune) There recently appeared in your publication an article to the effect that managers of a large chain of restaurants had been instructed not to serve a glass of water un- til the rest of the meal had been served. The public should be warned against adopting a prac- tice injurious to health, The proper time to drink a glass of water is before the meal 1s served. The interim between drinking and serving of the meal is sufficient time for the stomach to remove the 'chill from the water, Drinking cold water di- rectly after a meal tends to solidi- fy the fatty oils and indigestion results, It is scarcely reasonable to de- mand that voters understand elec- tion issues when even those who Wise "Agnes'--says "she likes men but not as masters." --Owen Sound Sun-Times. : Bladder Weakness Makes Life Misery!

Nahas Pasha succeeded Sarwat Pasha after the latter's Govern- ment rejected the draft treaty ne- gotiated by Sarwat and Sir Ausen (Chamberlain, British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. The re- fusal of the old Government to accept the terms was based on its belief that it did not provide for Egyptian independence or meet Egyptian aspirations. In his remarks today Nahas Pasha said: "It must be an agree- ment between two friends, and not between master and independent." He was cheered when he as- gerted .that the new Government recognized "no fact or act" which conflicted with Egypt's complete independence. DIVORCES LAST YEAR ESTABLISH RECORD Ottawa March 19.--Divorces granted in Canada last year num- bered 748, the high record for any one year. In 1913 the total was 60, while for five years--from 1913 to 1917 inclusive--the total was only 304. The number of divorces grant- ed during 1927, by Provinces, was: 197 in British Columbia, 182 in Ontario, 148 in Alberta, 102 in Manitoba, 60 in Saskatchewan, 29 in Nova Scotia, 17 in New Bruns- wick, 13 in Quebec and none fn Prince Edward Island, where only one divorce has been granted since Confederation.
