There has been some talk of a pro show in Oshawa at an early date -- outside promoters have ap- proached the local Commission, but they can't do anything more than offer third-rate pros at triple the price of the local amateur shows. If a' high class amateur show, with every boy battling his best, is not a better pight's fun than sitting out watehing at the most six bouts of indifferent pro boxing, we would like to hear from someone on the subject. These amateur boys will take on any boy in their class. Reputa- tions don't mean anything. Aw long as these boys can get into the ring they are happy. And every fan knows they fight, and fight hard., giving every ounce they have to win. Watch the local paper for the announcement of the opening of the seat sale plan. Maroons Leading Canadian Group, Beat Americans Montreal, Dec. 7.--The Mont- real Maroons regained first place in the standing of the Canadian section of the National Hockey League tonight by scoring a deci- sive 4 to 1 win over the New York Americans, at the Forum. Such was the brand of hockey display- ed by the Montreal sextette that the result was never In doubt. The Americans, with the exce n of the final period, when the shed a spasmodically dangerous¥®attack, * showed nothing, and five minutes after the start of the game, were two goals behind. Nels Stewart scored the first two Montreal goals, hoth on lone ef- forts. In the second period,~Lamb made it 3 to 0 on a pass from Phillips, while early in the third, Smith took Stewart's pass to give the locals a comfortable 4 to 0 advantage. The Yanks then went into action, and Buren finally beat Benedict on Sheppard's pass out. Worters, the. much-discussed goal tender, was between the Am- erican posts, and although beaten on four occasions, gave a good ac- count of himself. Americans--Goal, Worters: de- fence, Conacher and Reise; centre, Burch, wings, Dye and Sheppard; subs, Simpson, Connor, Broadbent, Himes, McVeigh and Spring. Marpons--Goal, Benedict; de- fence, Dutton and Siebert; centre, Smith, wings, Ward and. Stewart; subs, Hicks, Phillips, Lamb, Trot-| lier and Oatman.

JOINT TRANSPORTATION OVER BORDER BRIDGE (H Detroit, Dee. 7.--Plans, for op- srating buses over the Am ador Bridge following the structure's completion, were discussed today by Corporation Counsel Wilcox and representatives of the department of Street Raflways, the Hydro- Electric Commission of Ontario and the bridge company. After going into the legal and practical phase of the matter, the group tentatively decided that mass |H transportation over the bridge shall be conducted jointly by the Street Railways department and the Ontario Hydro-Electric Com- mission, which operates Windsor's street railway system. The man- agements will discuss the matter " further and agree upon details. A device has been.developed by United States government scientists which, when placed in the fire box of a furnace, creates a sufficient draft to burn small sizes of coal.

Peterboro Newcomers The newcomers to the Peterboro, are 'expected to create considerable opposition this year. The Petes are slated to meet Osh- awa in the Lift Lock City on Janu- ary 18 with the return game called for the following week, January 25. The old Oshawa-Port Hope rivalry will be renewed this year on Jan- vary 4 and January 11, the' first game of the series being Oshawa's home game in Bowmanville on Jan- uary 4.

Meet Port Arthur, Dec, 6--Twenty four hours ago a silent battle-iront greet- ed the arrival of dclegates of the Amateur "Athletic Union of Canada here, and critical officigls were draw- ing bead on President A. S, Lamb of the union, Today, with the smoke of a vigorous preliminary skirmish cleared away, Dr. Lamb had already led a spirited attack against three of his bitter executive foes. levelled at him, mainly -thsough the press, since the Olympic games were under way, Dr. Lamb_had been ex- ected to come back at those who ound fault with his @ctions at Am- sterdam, but when he named P. J. Mulqueen, chairman of the Olympic Committee, and M. M. ("Bobby") Robinson, manager of the Canadian Olympic track and field team, as the individual referred to in his cpening speech the A.AU. president opened the way for a pyro-technical display now sc eduled for some time today, Criticizes Miss Gibb Dr. Lamb struck out at Miss Alex- andrine Gibb, manager of the wo- men's Olympic track and field team, in the speech that opened the 41st annual A.A.U, session today, label- ling several of her newspaper re- ports as "untrue and misleading." Not so definitely, but quite as un- erringly, the McGill physical instruc- tor directed further criticism at un- named Olympic officials and when P, Ji Mulqueen demanded that names be mentioned both Mulquéen and Robinson were listed in Dr. Lamb's indictment. Because she was the logical choice as Women's Amateur Athletic Fed- eration president, and because a snap judgment was demanded; Miss Mar- ion Belding, of the Maritimes, was named member of the International Federation Women's Sports Com- mittee, without consulting the W.A. F.; because he considered he was expressing the opinions of the men e represented, Dr. Lamb voted against women competing in the Olympi® sports; and because he did not consider a protest should be lod- ged he refused to support a plea that Fanny Rosenfeld be named winner of the women's Olympic 100- metre dash. These are the bare statements of Dr. Lamb in defence of his eriticized moves, but each topic was enlarged on in a speech that extended well over 4,000" words, and left fifty dele- gates almost dumb at the unexpect- ed broad-spoken counter-attack on his critics, Reports "Deplorable" : Characterizing as "deplorable," re- ports sent back to Canada from the Olympic Games at Amsterdanr, refer- ring to "misunderstanding, strife, dis- cord, discontent and bad feeling," President A. S. Lamb, of the Ama- teur- Athletic Union of Canada, fired back lustily at critics of his actions as Olympic official, in his opening speech, that press reports sent back to Canada by Miss Alexandrine Gibb, manager of the Canadian wo- men's Olympic team, were "untrue and misleading," especially with ref- erence to the matter of the filing of a protest on the outcome of the ladies' . one hundred metres race which" Dr, Lamb opposed, was the contention "of -the first executive official of the amateur body. POLICE REGARDED AS TYRANTS ONCE London--Whatever the need for Lord Byng or say other to reor- ganise the London police, there can be n such suspicion of the force as prevailed when it was first in- stituted a century ogo. It was "an attempt to destroy English liberty by military tyranny." It "aimed at the creation of a secret political Inquisition." . It was "designed by Peel to assist in placing the Duke of Wellington on the throne." No charge 'was tuo extravagart to be made--or believed. One morning in 1830 London was placarded with flaming posters declaring the police were to be armed, and calling on citizens to take up arme to resist the new tyranny. Unfortunately while the creater of the police was innocent of any malign in'entious. the force itgelf gave occasion for criticism. Suitable men were dif- ficult to recuit, and during the first ten years there were over 12,000 dismissals for various offences: This left a stigma. Chief Constable Williamson used to tell how, in the sixties, he fancied he recognised on old man digging a grave in Bromp- ton Cemetery and asked "Weren't you once in the police?" "No, sir," said the man indignantly. "Thank God, I never sunk so low as that." WATERFORD GARDENER © KILLED AT CROSSING Simcoe, Dec. 7--E. J. Elkins, aged 65, of Waterford, was hurled to his death in a level crossing tragedy at 11 o'clock Thursday morning when Michigan ' Central express flyer No. 64 crashed into his car at the Townsend Centre crossing. The car was carried half a mile down the track and the body of Elkins was found decapitated. The victim was driving alone in his car. He had evidently stopped for a train that was preceeding eastward, then driv- en onto the tracks in the path of the fast express. It is thought that the car may have stalled and the driver had no chance to get from his car. 3 At the same crossing two years ago, David Smith, a resident of the neighborhood lost his life in a simi- lar accident. It is protected by a bell but no wig-wag and is consider- ed a rather dangerous crossing. Elkins-was a market gardener, re- siding in Waterford. He leaves a wife, one boy, Murray, and a girl, Myra.

The Varsity Seniors Beat 'Ports' 4-1 For S.P.A. Title Toronto, Dec. 7--One hockey | championship has been decided, Var-, sity taking the Sportsmen's Patrio-; tic trophy, emblematic of the pre- season senior honors, with a 4 to 1 win over Port Colborne Intermediate O.H.A. title-holders, at the Arena Gardens last might. The Students did not have to show a great deal to capture the laurels this year as they only opposed two teams, first beat- ing Argonauts in overtime and then they disposed of the Ports in the final last night. The S.P.A. senior series was the poorest in history this year, * only two games being played, with a few friends of the players to witness them. Mel Harley, the nan who put the Students in the final by beating Ar" gonauts ,was mainly responsible for the victory last night, scoring two of the Blue goals while he made the play for another, In the game with the Scullers Harley scored three times in succession in the last period of. play to tie the score and make it possible for the Collegians to win, while last night he again pace. Harley played smart' hockey, but we was not alone for the Stu- dents all displayed an improvement over their last effort. Port Colborne, with 'exactly the same team that won the Intermediate championship last year, mad strong bid for the Senior trophy, but they lacked the finish, Varsity being much better in the last period. The Ports did not have the condition of the locals and they could not get their team-play - working . while. they found the Varsity defence difficult to beat on solo efforts, The Ports 'did not bore in after the first period their scoring efforts being limited to long shots, while the Students car- ried most of their plays" into the mouth of the Colborne cage before firing. The first period produced fast hockey wiih Varsity getting the.lone goal 13. minutes after the start of play, when Harley split the defence, stepped through = and - then stick- handled his way into the goal mouth. Harley made another smart play for the second score at the start of the middle period, when he slipped a pass to Stewart, after beati the defence. Nixon got the Ports' goal from the face-off when he stick- handled his way in, on top of Sny- der for a sure shot. Harley in- creased the Students' lead in the third period, after getting a pass from Statham while Paul ended the scoring when 'he sc the puck into the corner of the cage.

Farrell, secretary of the National Association; Hon, Manning Doherty ; Home Smith, vice-president, Toron- to: Baseball Club; Lawrence Solman, President, Toronto Baseball Club; George Oakley, M.P.P, and J. Cal Ewing of the Pacific Coast League also spoke. > Commissioner Landis made touch- ing references to the boys who left here fourteen years ago in order that the baseball world today might have freedom. The names of Barker and Bishop, flying aces, were among those mentioned, because the Judge had friends who Jad served over- seas under these /herves, Canada and U. S.

"With only an imaginag ne for a boundary, the people the two countries have been friend?™for over a hundred years. That's because of the quality of the people on the two sides of this line and their mutual under- standing of each other," stated the Commissioner. He congratulated the Toronto Bascball. Club on the .able mauner in which the convention had been handled and which, according to him, was the best ever. "I am a shade over 62 now," said Judge Lan- dis, "but I feel 1 am good for an- other 32 years, and I hopé by that time to be able to come back to Tor- onto for another annual meeting of the minors." : Toronto, said Judge Landis, bears a well-deserved reputation for the generous hospitality of its citizens, the high quality of its sportsmanship and particularly for its program of playground expansion.® We in the United States have our trouble in finding a place for the youngsters to play, but here in Toronto they have looked further ahead than we have across the border, and. today this city possibly has more civic recres tion centres than any city on the continent. President Solman of the Leafs was given a wonderful ovation. As a matter of fact he was the lion of the evening, and Mike Sexton paid him a splendid tribute when he said that not a man in baseball known than the Toronto president.

The goal tender is Ken- neth Fletcher who played his hockey two years ago with Bow- manville and even if he is not successful in ousting. Dick Smith from his' position, the manage- ment of the team state that he will be carried at all the team's as a regular substitute. . The team is taking no chances this year in running into another such difficulty as that which con- fronted them last year in King- ston when Dick Smith sustained a dangerous injury on his head and it was féared for some time that he would have to be faken from the game and an unprac- tised goal tender, possibly "Kip" Rowden, would have to take his place, Fletcher at least, should prove another valuable addition to the team's substityte strength. A new defence player, Lyle At- kinson, is in town and will also be on skates when the practices start, to try for a place on the ble strip section of the ice. At- 'kinson played last year with Whitby Intermediates and pre- vious to that was associated with Midland where he earned for himself a considerable reputation.

That tally was the 'death-deal- ing blow to the Chicago puckmen, and a minute after Nighbor's goal, Bill Touhey whipped in another counter on a pass from Nighbor. The game ftself was a tame af- fair up to the overtime session, with neither team showing much in the way of fast hockey and clever combination. Ottawas had an edge in every period, hut Gard- ner's superb oal-tending held them at bay unfil the extra period of play, when the Senators broke through to settle the issue. About 2,600 fans, making up the smallest crowd of the season to date, witnessed the contest.
