The redoubtable "Stuffy" was on his best behaviour and kicked out pucks that appeared to have him beaten. Time and again Louch and Fitzgerald skated right in on top of him, only to have their drives turn- ed into the corners. Early in the final overtime session, Anderson drilled one at him from closes in but the rubber hit the net-tender and dropped right on the goal-line where it remained while players on both teams battled to get at it. The Hamilton players claimed a goal, the Toronto goal judge claim- ¢d that the rubber had never cross- ed the line and no goal resulted, This did not meet with the ar rov- al of the fans sitting in that section of the rink and they started in to abuse the judge, but Manager Thompson put a stop to it when he sent a policeman to sit beside the Toronto man for the remainder 'of the journey. Vancouver Must Decide by Feb. 15 Vancouver, Jan. 7. -- Vancou- ver and British Columbia, has un- til Feb. 15 to decide whether or not it wishes to undertake the track and field trials for Canada's retary of the Canadian Olympic Committee, informed a meeting of athletic officials and promi- nent citizens last night that his committee must know by that date what Vancouver wishes to 0. Within that time Vancouver must decide whether it can raise the ten or fifteen thousand dol- lars mecessary to stage the Can- adian trials, Opinion of the gath- ering expressed by Major J, H. Roaf, president of the Vancouver Olympic Association, was that the answer would be ready within ten days. Speakers at the meet- ing were of the opinion that the answer would be in the affirma- tive, and that the Olympic trials would be held in Vancouver next July. ' All Facts Submitted Robinson laid all the facts ne- cessary to the undertaking "of the trials before the meeting, He did not encourage Vancouver to take the trials, Nor did he at- tempt to dissuade the coast from accepting them, but he did point out that there was considerable expense involved. Briefly, this is what Vancouver must do to get the trials: Guaran- tee a grant of at least $2,500 to the Canadian Olympic Commit- tee; undertake to house and feed approximately: 30 athletes from Yeriod of three weeks or a month; undertake to assist financially in ihe transportation of eastern ath- letes to the coast, to the extent of half their expenses. ! The Olympic Committee insists upon the grant, Robinson stated. :Jixpenses of the Canadian Olym- "pic team this year would he $45,- 000." Federal Government grant- ed $25,000 in 1924 and $26,000 in 1928 towards expenses. A grant for this year's team had been refused. d Robinson also stated Vancouv- er wonld be in line for an inter- national meet after the Olympic Games at Los Angeles. Plans are under way to have the cream of the athletes from Great Britain, South Africa, France, Germany snd Canada compete in meets across Canada. If Vancouver took one of these meets, Austra- lian and New Zealand athletes would compete here as well. Meets will algo be held in Edmon- ton, Calgary, Winnipeg, Hamil- tou and at the Canadian Nation- al Exhibition, Toronto. Motor City Club ~ Bowling Notes $ EE ---- J .

HE NEW MARTIN TODAY od ~ & » Petes Lost in Trenton Peterhorough, Jan, 26, -- In a ragged game of hockey on ter- rible ice, in Trenton on Monday night, the Peterboro Intermedi- ates suffered defeat at the hands of Trenton by a score of 6 to 4. Sand, sawdust and cinders, over which a thin sheet of ice had been laid--were dug up early in the game, through gaping holes, and the players were tripping and falling on' every\rush, while the puck was overskated time and again, More than once, the rub- ber went in one of the many holes and the referee had to stop play and dig it out to be facea off again several feet away. A good crowd of fans made plenty of noise, and they saw an exciting game. The Petes logked better most of the first pesfiod, taking an early lead, but the homesters tied it up in the last three minutes to finish the frame deadlocked at 4-all, They ran in' two in the second period, hold- ing the visitors scoreless, and neither outfit could do anything in the last, as the ice became more and more cut up. Ted Lebarr, Dundas, Calladine and Ellis were the Petes' goal getters, with Jarvis and Hatton each having an assist. Bohn got three of the winners' goals, Johnston had two and Parnell the other one, with Filion kicking in with an assist. Ten penalties were handed out, the home team getting four. The game was a little rough at times because of the heavy going, which made speed and combination out of the question. Close Race in Scoring Shifting form, which always { marks the mid-section of athletic races, may prove the bane of fans | who are trying to win part of the $15,000 award in the Turret cig- arette hockey competition now under way, and meeting with a coast to coast response. Toronto Leafs, through the medium of the dashing "Kid Line' have been setting a dazzl- ing pace in the matter of scoring goals, but this trio is now de- veloping sharp fluctuations of form. After annexing eleven goals in one match, the highest total in' several seasons, they were held scoreless by Canadiens in Toronto, Leafs only goal In that contest coming from the stick of "King" Clancy, the ener- getic defence player, New York Rangers are another club likely to bewilder the estl- mating fans. They held all scor- ing records until a' week or so ago, when they ran into injuries and were displaced in scoring by the: Toronto crew. Two defeats in a row, a season's record, was a further Ranger set back, in- troducing a confusing trend in- to the process of the dopesters. Boston Bruing are another club confusing the analysts. From un- disputed leaders last season, they have dropped to last position In their section, with their scoring falling off in. keeping with the decline. The estimaters will be like the transgressors; they will find the way hard as the League teams' battle on to the play-offs, Maroons Won. Close Contest Boston, Mass, Jan, 27 -- After spotting the Montreal Maroons three goals in the first period, the¥ Boston Bruins changed goalkeepers and put on a great final dripe last night before bowing by a'4-3 mar- gin ina National Hockey League match. "Hooley" Smith gave the Mar- oons a decided advantage in the opening session when he split the Boston defense three times before slashing over a scoring assist Marons' fourth tally during the Bruin' furious rally in the third | period. This tally ¢am, after North- |' cott stopped a Boston play and beat the Bruihs' back to their zone be- fore passing to Ward, After the "Tiny" Thompson was yanked out of the Boston cage in favour of Percy Jackson, who gave a splendid performance during the last two periods. >. d .

'With the good wishes of Winnipeg's sporting fraternity ringing in their ears, the fifteen well-conditioned athletes left for the East with/ex- pressions of confidence in their abil- ity to defend the universal hockey laurels Canada has held since the great winter pastime was ipcluded on the Olympic program. In addition to the fitteen players, the Olympic party includes Coach Jack Hughes, two trainers and sev- en officials of the Winnipeg club. Travelling with the team are four members of Manitoba's champion curling rink, who will curl in ex- hibition matches during Lake Pla- cid's big athletic week, A number of ardent sport fans also accom- panied the party and extra coaches are carried by the Canadian Na- tional flyer to accommodate them. With the exception of Norman Malloy, former Selkirk player, who was last week added to the Olym- pic roster, the team that will wear the Maple Leaf at Lake Placid is composed entirely of players who have been with Winnipegs through- out the season, All but two of these players, Walter Monson, centre, and Bert Duncanson, relief winger, were members of the fast-travelling Red team that won the Allan Cup last spring. " The winnipegs, will not travel di- rect to Lake Placid, but will re- main temporarily in Eastern Can- ada, where they will play two exhi~ bition games. On Friday the West- erners will perform in Toronto and on the following Monday they will play in Hamilton, Their first Olym- pic contest will be staged at Lake Placid on Feb. 4. Cataracts Put Varsity Out Toronto, Jan. 27--Niagara Falls Cataracts removed the last hope of University of Toronto seniors for a place in the O.H.A. play-offs when they defeated the students 3 goals to 2 in a thrill-packed battle at the Varsity Arena last night. The four points garnered by the Falls gives them a firm grip on fourth place in the standing, while the Collegians with but three games remaining to play, are now out of the running. The game produced almost ev- erything possible in the way of ex- citement and fast hockey and kept the crowd in a state of continuous uproar, throughout, The visitors took a three-goal lead with a tally in each period, but almost steady parade of Falls' players to the pen- alty box kept the students ini the contention all the way. Time after time with a one, and sometimes two-man advantage, the Blue and White would launch attacks which invariably ended in wild scrambles around the net. Over anxiety ard the great defensive work of Kamin- sky, Bowman, Kalfleisch and Essel- tin, frustrated them every time un- til but four minutes of play remain.' ed, when they scored two in a row and then threatened to tic up the issue, The Blue and White display- ad Tarek of finish around thé net, and their attempts at combination were far from up to standard. With a margin on ter- ritorial play, they failed to capital- ize their chances. BUILDING NEW CARS The current issue of the Cold Storage News Letter issued by the Dominion Dairy and Cold Storage Branch, contains an item of special interest to Canadian 'agriculture. It says: 'About five hundred new cars are being built at the present time by the Cana- dian railways; these cars will be especially equipped for the car- sapntalile riafe of meat and other perish- able commodities, For meat they are equipped with brine tanks, and the novel feature is that a 'reirigimeter' enables the inside tewaperature to he read without opening the doors," GANADA MEETS US. IN OPENING CLASH Olympic Hockey Games Start on February 5 Lake Placid, N.Y., Jan. 27.-- Representing the greatest ambi- tion of hockey authorities in Unit- ed States--an "All-American" team--14 players are training diligently for the third -winter Olympic games to be staged here from February 4-13. Products of the wave of hock- ey einthusfasm which has swept United States colleges during re- cent years there well-conditioned youths hold high hopes of climax- ing months of preparation by sweeping through Canadian, Po- lish and German puck chasers to attain amateur hockey's highest pinnacle--the Olympic crown, Other teams which have repre- sented this country in previous Olympics have had several Cana- dian-born players on their line- ups, players who had learned the ice code in the land where it is a national winter sport. For years the authorities on this side of the border have been nursing the hope of producing an all-Ameri can gextette capable of battling the Canadians on even terms. Now their dreams are partially a reality. It remains for the squad to make good on the stadium ice to complete the happiness of the amateur moguls. It was not many years ago any Canadian + team could spot a squad of this country's native tal- ent at least a half-dozen goals and finish the game victorious with plenty to spare, Those days are past. Artificial rinks are springing up all over the country and the youth of the land is get- ting its opportunity to learn the fundamentals of the game in ear- ly boyhood. The hockey clan here now fis an indication of the progress the game is making on this side of the border. Some of them never had skates on until 'they reached college. Trained on- the football field; men of splendid physique and stamina they took to the ice game quickly and with artificial fce at their disposal made rapid strides toward becoming finished players. After graduating from college they joined up with ama- teur clubs in New York and Bos- ton and are now undoubtedly a real menace to Canada's reign as world titlists. The players average 24 years of age and about 160 pounds in weight. In these respects they compare favorably with the team that it is taken for gramtéd they will be successful In meeting in the final---Winnipegs, holder of the Allan Cup, Canada's emblem of national amateur supremacy. On the opening day of the tour- nament the €anadians and United States teams clash in the first match of the schedule. They alse meet in the finals and these twa games are expected to furnish stus dents with an excellent compari. son of the respective merits of tho teams. In all likelihood this brace of games will also decide the championship as both the Canadian and United States sex- tettes appear considerably strong- er than the invading European teams. FAVOUR APPLES IN BASKETS The current isue of the Hgo- nomic Annalist supplies some in- teresting information as to popu- lar preferences in" thé purchase of apples by consumers 4n -Mont~ real and Toronto. Figures se- cured as a result of a special erence questionnaire show that the 6- quart basket leads in popular preference, with approximately 40 per cent of the early and 29 per cent of the later varieties be- iz sold in this form of contain- er. The 11-quart basket proved a close second, but whether the popularity qf the bushel package is due to grower enterprise and practice or to purchaserg' pref- is a debatable point, While the basket leads in popu- larity in Toronto markets most of the purchases reported in Montreal favour the "measure," pecks or gallons, while the pur- chase by the "pound" is the pre- dominant preference of the French-Canadian housewife. When asked why they did not buy more apples 41-2 per cent of the replies received stated that they were buying all they re- quired, and 34-7 per cent stated that apples were too expensive. Only 3-9 per cent gave lack of storage facilities as a reason, and an equal number stated "'puor quality." Only 6 out of 655 replies complained of poor grad- ing or marketing methods. THREE HUNDRED HONOR ARTIST "AT BIG BANQUET Twentieth Anniversary of Creator of "Maggie and Jiggs" Observed Washington, Jan. 27. -- One of the most unique tributes ever to reward work well done took place Monday night when a man and two characters out of an inkwell became the centre of a nation-wide demonstration in gratitude for twenty continuous years devoted to inciting the world to laughter. The occasion was the twen- tieth anniversary of the marriage of maggie and Jiggs which is to say that "Bringing Up Father," George McManus's world famous comic strip, is twenty years old this month. It has been two dec- ades since Maggie set herself the heart-breaking--not to mention the china and crockery destroying ---task of making a gentleman out of Jiggs. The climax of the recognition came when three hundred guests, drawn from the leaders in every field of endeavor honored Mec- Manus Monday evening at a din- ner in Washington which was broadcast over a nation-wide ra- dio hook-up, Thus appropriately enough Maggie and Jiggs were feted in the capital of a nation which has taken them to its heart as a na- tional hero and heroine. They've gone a long way since they started, Maggie and Jiggs. They've travelled the world over; they speak in 29 languages In 71 countries; 100,000,000 readers in every part of the globe watch for them and count the day in- complete until they learn what fortune, gocd or bad, has been visited upon the luckless, long- suffering spouse of masterful Maggie. As typically American as skyscrapers and jazz 'music, nevertheless this pair, with a uni- versality that stamps their true greatness, have become the em- bodiment of basic human ways for peoples from Denmark to China, Australia and Ecuad versafy, that they were no less familiar and welcome to those who sit in the seats of the mighty. Government officials, fi- nancial leaders, sports champions, artists, writers, actors--all join- ed in a deluge of messages for McManus, thagpking him for hav- ing given th two intimate friends in Jiggs and Maggie, praising him as a benefactor to humanity, expressing hopes that he will give them twenty more years of "Bringing Up Father." The magic of Jiggs' and Maggie's appeal, it seems, is no less po- tent for the world favored citi- zens than it is for it millions of unsung readers. It is a far cry from the heights of his present eminence to 1912, when George McManus was ex- verimenting with the "Bringing Up Father" idea. The years have shown how wisely McManus judged in Afol- lowing out his idea of "Bringing Up Father." From the tremen- dous following they have gather- ed in their twenty years, it has been estimated that Maggie and Jiggs are the world's greatest en- tertainment unit. The combined host of those who look for them daily totals a figure far beyond that achieved by any other at- tration in their own field or in the talkies or radio. NO MORE LOVE FOR FIVE YEARS New York. -- Pola Negri, erst- while Polish film star, now¥hails herself as the "true international star," because in three transfu- sions the blood of an American, a German and an Irishman, saved her life..
