Native Sons presented a heavy team that outweighed Oshawa all down the line but the local team made up for that in game- ness and never gave up trying. The visitors used their weizh: to advantage while the Oshawa de- fence could not seem to get set to 'meet the players coming i and at least two of the goals scored resulted from failure to body the puck carrier as ho cam= in, allowing him to go through to: the net almost unmolested. Native Sons had a iittle the het- ter of the argument as resards speed but Oshawa in Grabosk! had the shiftiest player on the jee~as his two goals and essist on the other attest. The game was a hard one to handle as Na- tive Sons were in trouble trip- ping and bodying fllegally all through the game and drew down eleven of the sixteen pen- alties. Vince on their defence was the bad man of the ame with five trips to the bench whil2 Thompson was a clese second with three. Referee Armstrong handled a difficult situation with an iron hand and checked up closely on the play. There was plenty of excitement around the goal judges booths in the third period and both had to he re- moved after disputed goals. On Even Terms Native Sons were content for the first five minutes of the first period to shoot from the hlue lige, while Oshawa carricl the play down tlie ice aly to ve their attacks broken up by the defence. After ten minutes of play Graboski rushed with Maundrell and laid over a per- fect pass at the defence allowing the latter to go right in to pick the corner. Vince was penaliz- ed on the play as he threw his stick. Shortly after the toams were down to three men a side as the parade to the penal bench commenced. ha awa first forward lice woo cul. ing well but did not seem to be able' to take advantage of passes. Graboski rushed on one occa- sion and Zaher blocked, Shelen- koff who followed in fast, just missed the corner of the net on a back hand- lift. With abou: a minutes to go Thompson and McDonald rushed together, Thomson passed ahead into the corner and MeDonald centred out to the former who was uncovered in front of the net. He took ail kinds of time and as Salter dove out, lifted the puck over him in- to the net to tie the score. Two Easy Goals On the first play of the second period Maundrell missed a pass from Graboski right in the goal Native Sons began to press and Salter made several > .

Native Sons played two men short for over 'the greater part of the period but over anxiousness and poor shoot- ing cost Oshawa goal after goal. The players just could not seem to get organized. Graboski to the Fore Opening the final heat Osh- awa put on the pressure and the visitors seemed content to pro- tect their lead playing three and four men on the defence and sending one and two men up ou the rushes, lying back for 2 break. Zaher was called on to make great saves from Maun- drell and Shelenkoff in succes sion until Graboski sidestepped his way through the defence and slipped the puck into the corner to put Oshawa back in the game. The visitors were still lying hack waiting for an opportunity to break away. Finally Terry rusn- ed and shot from the blue line. The shot went through Salter's pads and apparently hit the post as there was a sharp click and the puck came right out again. The goal judge's light went on and the crowd in the end zone crowded around the oronto of- ficial, Play was held up for some time and the judge was finally removed, and the goal counted. Native Sons were s'ill paying defensive hockey and were content to shoot the puck up the ice when no chanca to break away presented itself Coach Spring threw five forwards into the game as the period drew to a close and the massed attack was rewarded when Graloskis shot from the side w=n: for a goal. The puck went right through the net and hit the boards as though it had missed the net. Native Sons argued about the goal and the Oshawa goal judge was removed. The goal counted. After the re- sumption of play Oshawa threw every player into the attack and Zaher was given a hot time, div- ing out ten feet from his net on one occasion to save.

Native Sons Junior League Games To-night Promise Much The Junior City Hockey League will be in full swinz again this eve- ning at 'the Arena with another doubleheader. Starting as usual at six-thirty the junior players will have their weekly workout in what promises to be two of more than average games. Shamrocks and Amerks will play in the firsy game; while: Maple Leafs and Canadians will play in the second game, Following last weck's games Can- adiens moved fp. into a tie tor first place' with Amerks winning three to zero, This week the Habitants will play the last place Maple Leafs who can be termed the most un- lucky team in the league, The Leafs have lost all of their games to date but all hut onc of them has been by "one goal targin. They have lead in. several games right down to the last period and then have lost out. Although Canadiens arc the high scor'ag team in the league, they may falter and give the Maple Leafs a chance to met hack into the runnin~ Shamrocks have a chance to get into second place when they play Amerks. The Irish have a better scoring record than their rival of the night but have allowed as many 7onls to get into their net as they have scored. However, they are not much. better in that respect than Amecrks, who although they have only scored four) goals in: four games they have been a tight de- fensive team and have oily been scored on four times, three of these | coming from the sticks of the Can- adiens last week, Just to make things interesting we would call Shamrocks to win, for the Amerks have been just a little bit lucky in NEW MARTIN NOW PLAYING W g several ' of their games even though they have played good hockey and taken advantage of the breaks, "Army" Armstrong will handle Texan Voted Best in U.S. New York, Des, 20. -- Sports experts experienced mo difficulty whatever in singling out the fem- inine performer most entitled to recognition as the United States outstanding girl athlete of 1932.

Her nearest rival, Helene Madison, Seattle's record- breaker among women free-styie swimmers, polled. 45 votes, to finish a good second. Another Far Westerner, Helen Wills Moody, queen of the tennis courts for years, occupied third place.with 21 votes. In a close contest for fourth place, the new United States goif champion, Virginia Van Wie, of Chicago, emerged with a three- vote 'margin over Eleanor Holu:, slim and pretty champion of 'he back-stroke swimmers. Their totals were 16 and 13.

The puck chasers, members of the Springfield Indiang of the Canadian-American League wer: left homeless following their game with New Haven Saturday night, Difficulties between Co!. John Hammond and the Spring- field rink management resulted in the Colonel announcing with- drawal of his farm team from the Dooley loop. Since then Col, Hammona has decided to try and place the hoys elsewhere, so they may coailnue their clever play. The team rests in third place in the league standing, two points behind tho leading Boston Cubs. There remains two possibie lo- cations where the Indians may be rehabilitated, one 2: Manhat- tan and the other in a suburban district. Negotiations proceeded at top speed today vs Col. Ham- mond sought desperately to get his farm team settled in a new home before their next schednled game on Christmas night. Need Congressional Sanction Washington, D.C., would have welcomed the squad, thrice cham: pions of the Can-Amerk circuit. but while rink difficulties could have been overcome vlistric: of Columbia law prohibits sional sport exhibitions } { Congress. - Introduction ana passage of a bill granting the In- dians permission to play would require weeks at the least, so Washington is out, Baltimore, at first considered a likely spot, has proved to he just ag rabid an amateur strong- hold a® Atlantic City, leaving the two local points as the only possi- bilities, unless of coursa the Springfield management relents, which seemg unlikely. Should efforts fail to get ihc Indians back in the league. the Rangers will take two of the players into the Nasioaar Hockey League team's fold. Mfforts will be made to find berius for the others on any major or minor league team desiring their ser- vices. 7 Toronto Players The Springfield players their home towns foiiow Nor- man "Dutch" Galnor, Calgary; Gordon Pettinger, Regina; nrg sell Blinco, Beauport, Que., now living in Brooklyn; Wiltie 'Twinkle" Stary, Winnipeg; Jimmy Arnot, Medicine Hat and Vancouver; Lued Palm, Calgary; Vic Desjardins, Winnipeg, now llving in St, Paul, Minn.: George Heard, Dauphin, Man.;.

Oshawa had as much of the play as the visitors and should have won with their share of luck. The kids, many of whom are playing their first O.H.A. hockey, put up a classy exhibition against a team that outweighed them and had much more experience, yet they did not lose anything in comparison, It was a tight fit and Oshawa were by no means disgraced. * * * # ¥ The stars from a local point of view were 'Salter in the nets and Graboski and Maundrell on the forward line. Salter played 5 wonder ful game considering the support he received trom his defence, Time after time he made seemingly impossible saves from close in shots, The shots that beat him would have beaten the best of them and throw no discredit on him. For every shot that beat him he madc at least three saves on shots that would have beaten the average netminder, Gra- boski was up to his old tricks and seemed to have even a more uncanny He was everywhere at once and was control over the puck than usual. $ hard to stop at the defence. His two geals were nice efforts, while hig pass to Maundrelt for the other was a pretty piece of work, He gave Maundrell many passes du' ng the game but the wing seemed to be a bit under the weather as he did not play up to the standard he set in f a npmber of good chances.

While they tised their bodics occasionally it appeared that they werc just a bit timid several, tinies. ¥ LJ ¥ The second line of Gamble, Barnes and Pearce failed to score a goal pace, they set last week, but they did well when on % to keep up with the : the ice and should improve with experience. It was apparent that they bunched badly on one' side, of the rink at times and allowed rushes tc go through the defence. This fauly will be rectified with coaching while a scoring punch is much needed among them, » % % Referee Armstrong had a difficult situation to handle all through the came. - It may not have been intentional but it appeared as though the visitors WOTG' . around with a chip on thir shoulders. Vince was ih worst offender drawing down five penalties and carried a high stick all night, His parinet, Giles, was not so antagonistic and played welll Their fir cord line of Thomson, McDonald and Terry appeared tc be the most dangerous although Spalla, the big relief defenceman, had the hardest shot on the team. Zaher in the net, played a heady game ¢ Oshawa had been able to get in for more close-in shots he might 1 bu not have looked so good. * & Ld 1 he third period was the pick of the lot as far as excitement went and it would be hard to convince any Oshawa fan who, saw the game that the Bluc DLups did not deserve a better break than they receiv- ed. The shot irom Terry caused a lot of argument both among the players and thc fans, Salter, when the shot went through his pads was almost in front of .the goal post and from the: rebound the puck took took and the sharp click that was heard all over the rink it was thought that it had hit the post and come right out. The fans who occupied the north end and saw the play rushed" down and surrounded the goal judge who had flashed the light. Reifdee Armstrong - talked the situation over but could do nothing else but ward the goal as he was not in a position to see whether it had gone in. The judge was removed and another Toronto man put in, It was a tough break for the team and took a lot of heart out of them just when they were go- ing strong, The second dispute. was not as hard to call as Referee Armstrong say the puck -cnter the net and pass out through the back and hit the boards. Native Sons protested but the goal went into the book, Had the other not been counted the game would have been tied. Another decision that aroused plenty of talk was the visitors first goal in the initia] period. It was apparent that the puck was shot forward here it was. picked up by one of the visitors who had not been skated onside. He promptly passed out in front of the net and a goal was scored, Two goals makes a log of Jifference in some hockey games and it was unlucky that two such breaks should come LJ into, the corner w all in one game.

Fight Ende Senior Game Toronto, Dee. 20.--In the wild- est hockey game witnessed here this season, Marlboros last night nosed out Port Colborne Sailors by 1 to 0.and in so doing, increas- ed their lead to five points in the 0.H.A. senior race. A crowd of be- tween 2,500 and 3,000 witnessed the struggle and the fans were kept in a constant uproar during the final twenty minutes as the Ports battled desperately for the equalizer. The game was without a doubt one of the most rugged ever wit- nessed at Maple Leaf Gardens. After a fairly fast first period the players started to step into each other without fear or favor, and hard feeling crept into the pro- ceedings. Players charged their sticks sky high, with the result that = several suffered gevere gashes about the head and face. Hard bumping, cross-checking, arguments, delays, a disputed goal and continual nagging at the referee all combined to add ex- citement and interest to the fray and, although the sceneg were truly disgracefcl ones, they were apparently enjoyed by the fans. A fight between "Teddy" Olliver and Reed climaxed this bitter duel. These players clashed be- hind the Port Colborne goal and, although a general free-for-all threatened, peace wag restored in a moment, Olliver stffered a Minneapolis; Bill Regan, Toron- to; Clarence Molyneaux, New- market, Ont.; uswald Gorman, Buckingham, Que,; Cling Smith, faskatcen, Northcott Still Leads Scorers Montreal, Dec. 20.--Players of recent prominence and veterans continued to' dominate the scor: ing in the National Hockey Lea gue, according to averages issued last night by President I'rank Calder. : Laurence Northcott of Mont- real Maroons, he of the full head of hair who has oddly picked up the nickname "Baldy", leads the whole league, both in most goals, 12, and most points, 17. At his heels are his teammate, young Paul Haynes, with 16 points, six goals and 10 assists; Bill Cook of New York Rangers with 16 points, eight goals and the same number of assists, and Marty Barry, Boston Bruins, who is second in actual scoring with 11 goals to add to his three as- sistg for 14 points. Rangers continue to show the most consistent scoring punch in the United States division. Im- mediately following Barry are four rom the blue-shirted New Yorkers, Bun Cook, Frank Bou- cher, Cecil Dillon and Art Som- ers, all of whom" have scored 11 points or more, A triple tle developed for third place in the Canadian division with Cooney Weiland, Ottawa Senators; Howie Morenz, Mont- real Canadiens and Dave Trottier, Maroons, all having 12 points. Eddie Shore of Boston was dis- placed by Earl Seibert, New York deep gash, about one inch wide, on the back of his head, the re- sult of a high stick. DREAMS SOLVE EACH OTHER IN TREASURE HUNT Poor Junker in Germany Has Dream Which Turns Out Fortunate Danzig. -- The authenticity of telepathic dreams is disputed hy scientists, But what shall be said of dreams by two different persons entirely unknown to each other and living at a great dis- stance apart, which, when relat- ed, are found to contain each the solution of the other, besides de- finite information as to ascer- tainable facts in actual places? If not sheer telepathy or even prophecy, assuredly the hand of destiny may be said to be at work here and to move in a most mys- terfons way. We cannot daes- pige such dreams as purely fool- ish, for they have a great deal to tell us. We can only relate the facts and endeavor to compre- hend- their deeper meaning. One of the strangest occur- rences, or coincidences, in the realm of physic phenomena, if it may he called that, was recently recorded in East Prussia. A Prussian Junker, living in great- ly reduced circumstances, some weeks ago dreamt that he was climbing up the steps of a ehurch tower and that he would find happiness at the top. . Upon wak- ing, the dream was so vivid In his memory that he related jt to several friends. He described the church in detail and said he wondered where it could pos- sibly be. By an extraordinary coinci- dence, some one present claimed that, according to that descrip- tion it must of course be the tow- er of the Dresden Hofkirche (Royal Church). The landowner procured a picture of the Hof- kirche and found that it really was the church of his dream. Still under the impression of his extraordinarily vivid experi- ence, he took the train to Dres- den in order to see if he could get to the bottom of the symbols in his dream, He climbed the famous tower dnd was enchanted with the magnificent view from the top, TONIGHT, 6.30 P.M.

Smoke Shop Have Good Chance to Tie the Dukes --Other Teams Can Ma- terially Improve Their Positions With six w..ks past the teams in the Ontario Regiment Volleyball League are still well bunched for the lead. The race is decidedly close in both groups, but in Group A. the teams with one exception have good chances to improve their position by taking three games to- night. While the race is not over in Group B the teams all have a chance, even though the last: four teams are well down in the stand- ing. Last week the games took the form of inter-group competition and wag the case a number of weeks ago the group f\*teams again took the majority of the games, but no major changes took place in the standing of the clubs. The ames to-nivht however may bring about several big shakeups as the teams in first and second places will be taking on the leaders and may give them a beating tc tighten up the groups. Lead is at Stake The group leading Dukes will have to look to their honours even though they have lost but two games, as they will meet Smoke Shop the second place holders. A clean sweep for the Smoke Shop lads will put them in a tie for the lead with three gdmes in hand, to be plaved later on. Simcoes and Sunnyside are in for a great battle as only one point separates them. Falcons and St. Andrew's will also engage in a hitter struzgle, particu- larly so as Falcons are now tied Shakeup Among Leaders b/ vg 2 Possible After To-n ight with Smoke Shop for second p and can keep pace with them o go into second place alone' should their rivals lose out A.Y.M.C} alsd have a better than average chancd to go int. second place. as' th meet the lowly Nationals who thavd won but two games this 'seasom With all these probabilities facin the teams in Group A it is likely that therc will be plenty of ex: citement before the evening. is over, ++ Close Games Forecast In group B.the changes in "the standing will not be so marked should any of the teams drop three straight, but 'all the teams will be fighting hard to maintain their pi sent position and better it if possi ble. A.Y.M.C. and The .Aces. will meet in the first game; and should Aces who have been travelling fas of late take all the games they wil be tied with the Anzlicans. Banks ers and 'Kinsmen will meet in the next match and it would ot be ou of place to call the Service Club to win as Bankers haye 'een playing away above their heads of late, A straight win for the Kinsmen would place them right back in the race. The Times who have not beén do- ing so well of late have another: tough assignment :. they play the group leading Regiment team, The Newsies can do better than. they have in their last three starts. and may upset the dope and win at least two of their games. They will have to get started soon to get into. the running before the season' is! over. In the last game of the nig the two last place teams will'fight it out for the doubtful honour &f staying in the cellar. Tuxis have a one point lead over Sea Cadets so" that two wins for one or the other. will make a lot of difference tos both teams, 4% overlooking beautiful Dresden and the Elbe with its bridges. As he stood there lost in thought the attendant drew near, ad- dressing him as follows: "I rather feared you would try to jump off. = That happens very often here. People have even begun to call this the suicide tower ..'." The stranger replied that he wag driven to come and see the tower by the details of hig re- markable dream. The aged at- tendant shook his head. "Noth- ing much to find here," said he. "Anyhow dreams are funny things!" He proceeded to tell the Prus- sian of a dream he had had a few nights before, the memory of which would not leave him. He had dreamt of a buried trea- sure of diamonds and pearls, and the extraordinary thing wag that he could describe in detail the house in which the treasure was concealed, and could state the exact gpot in the cellar where it must be. The Prussian visitor was am- azed to hear his description which exactly fitted hig own house near Danzig! More mys- tified than ever, he took the next train home and began digging in his cellar at the point indicat- ed, What was his joy to hit upon an old oaken chest contain- ing the authentic treasure des- cribed by. the man in the tower at Dresden. ! Inquiries revealed that many years ago, in an age of wars and alarms, 'hig' ancestors had bur- fed the magnificent diamonds in the cellar, When the castle was attacked, the owner was killed in the fray without ever reveal- ing its secret. Thanks to the extraordinary collusion of these two remarkable dreams, his lat- ter-day descendant was now able to repair his fortunes and spend the evening of his life in peace and plenty. Does Freud explain the dream? A Londoner, who, by the way, breeds cockers as a hobby, found himself short of cash while holi- daying at a small seaside place. He went to the one bank which the village boasted and explained his plight. Could he, subject to satisfactory identification, cash a cheque? The accountant asked, "Do you bank with us in Lon- don?" "No," replied my friend, "as a matter of fact TI bark at Banklays." Pity the poor bootleggers and speakeasies. Their illegal and profitable business is to be legaliz- ed and have all the profits taxed out of it.
