Olympic tockey championship for Canada \ Placid, N.Y., Winnipeg pnders today it Leap Year still ! its charm. It is a charm apart from port- marriage proposals, concern- exclusively a practice follow- for two decades by Winnipeg teams in the matter of Allan Cup. It has gone like this: "Allan cup winners have been ] uced by Winnipeg in 1912, 1916, 1920 and 1928. The only ap Year since pre-war days that has not seen the Canadian mateur title lodged here was 1924. Sault Ste Marie's Grey- hounds were winners that spring. This string of Leap Year tri- uymphs was started by the old Victorias who eliminated Eatons, of Toronto, in the Dominion final {in 1913. It was a repeat victory for. the Vics, as they had been winners in 1911, In 1916--in the midst of the 'war, Winnipeg turned loose a {goldier team, the Blast battalion, which was foymed to play exhi- Pition games for patriotic pur- but which remained to down the best oppbdsition in the gountry and win the Allan Cup. Joe Simpson, "Spunk" Sparrow 'and the Morrison boys were stars on the battalion line-up. ank Frederickson's great Falgons, the first Canadian Olym- {ple team, were national champs in 1920. They brought Canada a world's title after defeating every team entered in the Ant- werp tourney. Leap Year was not Winnipeg's bl in 1924. Selkirk Fishermen won 'the Manitoba championship, But were defeated in the Allan cup finals, But University of Mafiftoba picked up where the Falcons left off by winning in 11928, Andy Blair was the star of the college sextette. Tt will be either Winnipegs or Native Sons who represent this city in the play-downs this spring and more than a few fans are of the opinion that Sons will defeat the Peggers when they get back from Lake Placid. ith a sensational first-string forward line, made up of the flashy Lemay brothers, Tony and { Albert, and Freddie Carter, Na- {tive Sons can easily skate with 'the Olympic representatives. Their defence system may not be as tightly-welded as that of Win. nipegs, but Jerry O'Brien is con- Gerad the equal of Bill Cock- barn, 'Peg goalie. Jf the fleet Sons can master their second forward set into a formidable array they may earn | themselves the right to defend thé Allan Cup, won a year ago "by: Winnipegs. In either case, Winnipeg will be represented in thé playdowns. Either Pegs or Sops are capable of golpg some fle distance this Leap Year. {CHARLES 11 DAYS BROUGHT BACK {Relics on Exhibition by ~ Y.W.C.A.

John Drinkwater, the eminent poet and dramatist, probably puts the mat- ter in true perspective in his pre- factory note to the catalogue. "The Taste of the period to which this Exhibition is devoted was admirable," says Mr. Drink- water. "It was so good as to be in itself an effective answer to the people who talk of Restoration England as though it were entire- ly given over to license and de- bauchery, The nation, recovering from {its terrible ordeal, was no doubt at moments a little light- headed morally and politically, The Court, led by a king who had suffered every kind of ignominy and privation, and was now mak- ing the best of a good time when it came, behaved itself with a freedom that was an obvious and highly relished theme for cen- sure." : , The exhibition is being heid In two adjoining houses in Grosven- or Place, lent by the Duke of Westminster. Lady Lyons and others of the committee have gathered a most representative collection of exhibits. The King has sent from Buckingham Palace Streater's picture of Roundhead troops leaving Boscobel House af- ter a fruitless search for Charles, their departure being observed by the King and Col, Careless, hid- den in the branches of the famous oak. More than one fragment of this oak is on view, with even more intimate mementoes of the King who "went on his travels." Perhaps the quaintest exhibit of all directly associated with Charles is the tiny shirt, bib, and cap of fine lawn, with most deli- cate designs in Holly-point, which he wore at his christening. Por- traits have been generously lent from both private and public eol- Jections., The Duchess of Ports- mouth, in pale blue, is an amiable neighbor of Nell Gwynn, in brown satin, and with the Duchess of Cleveland, in old-gold. Gazifs down from the walls are pictures of the statesmen with whom the King had many a tussle, when his own viewpoint was not always an unworthy one compared with that of his Ministers. The exhibition is an arresting reminder of the contribution which the period made to art, lit- 'erature and the sciences.

There are specimens of Pepy's neat minutes of meetings of the Board of Admiralty, and specl- mens also of church music by that master-composer, Henry Purcell. It was during Charles' reign that the Hudson's Bay Com y was founded, The original Charter i on view; it is go long that only half of it is unrolled, and it bears a seal as large as a cheere-plate, and probably a good deal heavier, BRITISH PILOTS WILL COMPETE King's Cup Up For Com- \_ petition Among Profes- sionals and Amateurs London. -- Amateur and profes- sional British pilots will compete on two days early in July for the King's Cup. The first day's racing, over a course of 750 miles, will serve the purpose of an eliminating heat, because only the 50 competi- tors who put up the best handi- cap performances will be eligible to continue the race next day. Speeds generally should be higher car. Every mna- chine entered will be handicapped on th, assumption that it can fly round the whole course at an aver- age of at least 110 miles an hour; NEWSPAPERS NO LONGER DISPUTE British Publishers Effect Merger in Midland" Counties London. -- A series of news- paper mergers just announced to take place in Newcastle, Bristol, and Derby brings to an end, for a time at least, the intensive competition started several years ago between Lord Camrose and Lord Rothermere, Allied Nor- thern Newspapers Ltd., controlled by Lord Camrose, is to take over the Newcastle HKvening World from Northeliffe Newspapers, controlled by Lord Rothermere, Similarly, Northcliffe Newspapers will incorporate The Bristol Ev ening Times and Echo in the Bristol Evening World, and thg Derby Daily Express in the Der- by Dally Telegraph. These changes, it is stated, 'are ren- dered inevitable by the high and increasing cost of production, particularly wages, which remain far above pre-war level." Three years ago Lord Rother- mere inaugurated an ambitious scheme to establish entirely new evening papers in several large centres outside London, No ex- pense wag spared on the first two ventures in Newcastle and Bria- tol, the salaries offered even for comparatively humble workers in the news and editorial depart- ments being of an extremely lib- eral character. Sheffield was to have been the third city for the establishment of a new evening newspaper. The then the rival nates entered upon a truce. The building in Sheffield was put on the market, and Lord Rother- mere left this field to Lord Cam- rose, The Berry group, of which Lord Camrose is the head, now control all the daily newspapers published in Sheffield. They have long had a controlling in- terest in the Sheffield Telegraph, end recently acquired the Shef- field Independent from the Star- mer Company, . The mergers now announced in Newcastle, Bristol and Derby will naturally entail serious loss of employmen. to workers in the newspaper field, DESCRIBES SNOW "Snow fills Canada with money- making industries from gold mining to grout fishing. Without Canada's snow there would not be so big and imoressive a Dominion, Snow is no handicap. It's white money." So savs Courtney Ryley Cooper in an article in the February20 issue of Lhe Saturday Evening Post, Some United States citizens have the mistaken impression that snow and ice are a tremendous handicap. Ihe Cooper article is written prim- arily for them, but Canadians will find in it much that ig interesting. "Long ago the average Canadian", says Mr. Cooper, "gave up any at- tempt to persuade visitors that snow is a necessity and a money- making product, So he makes a mere statement of fact and lets it go at that. Certainly, he feels, there's no sense in attempting to explain to a summertime fisherman that he's catching big trout because the snowfall herp reaches usually havy proportions. That might sound insane, when it is only common sense." 'In only one place did 1 find as deeply graven evidence of suffer- ing ag existed in the United tSates." Mr. Cooper points out the effect of snow in producing good crops in the summer, and on employment in the winter by virtue of the need for removal of the snow. He shows al- so how winter sports stimulate the business of hotels, railways, etc. Snow aids transportation; it aids trapping; it makes better crops; it provides the right kind of streams for sporting fish, in hundreds of ways it aids progress in Canada, Yet many people in other countries think that Canadians suffer severe. ly from snow and cold, and some people actually believe that Canada 1s a country of igloos, Two small boys were discuss- ing their respective families, and after having dealt with everyone else had arrived at their grand- fathers, "Mine was ninety-five yester- day," said one proudly. "Isn't that wonderful?" "Not very," was the grudging reply. "Look how long it has tak- en him to do it!" entry of a craft which t make the speed will be sheer waste of time and of the entrance fee.

Peter and Acton Vale areas and Mont- real will be the gathering place for numerous scientific parties, travelling long distances to view and study the eclipse of the sun, August 31, this year. The Quebec districts will form the central portion of the eclipse area. Distinguished scientific par- ties are expected from Canadian centres apd Great Britain. A party from England, for instance, is expected to take up a position on the Physics Building of Mec- Gill University. : Dr. D. C. Rose of the National Research Laboratories, who is a Canadian graduate of Cambridge University, has been invited to be a member of a party from Cambridge which is being organ- ized by Lt.-Col, F., J. M. Stratton, professor of Solar Physics. Ordinarily the size, shape and components of the solid portion of the sun can be studied with astronomical {pstruments any time the sun is shining but the gaseous atmosphere (chromos- phere and corona) around the sun can only be studied during an eclipse when the excessive light from the main body of the sun's surface (photospher) is stopped by the moon passing be- tween the sun and the earth. This is done by a study of the spect- rum of the light sent out by the chromosphere and corona. It is spectoscopic work which the party from Cambridge con- templates. The observations will be made from Magog, Quebec. "Whatever did you quarrel with George for?" "Well, he proposed to me again last night."
