Corson said Stagg and Dr. Tul- ly C. Knoles Chancellor of the college, had been negotiating re- garding the coach's activities with the team next year. Stagg, in San Diego . with his game, com- mented tersely: "Any statement in this matter must come from Changellor Knoles." Knoles was away from the. college today. Stagg came to the College "of the Pacific in.1933 under a verb- al contract. He was 70 then, the retirement age at 'the University of Chicago, where he spent more | than 40 years as coach and physi. cal. director. "I feel good for 15 to 20 years more of active service,' he said Pacific|- then. "I am not content to step out." Hyenas Laugh Now Beat Dynamiters In Cage Surprise The "Hyenas" under Captain Gerald Swartz now have occasion to laugh loud and long -- they de- feated Captain Bruce Vaillincourt's "Dynamiters" for their first appear- ance in the winning column! It was a fast, keenly contested battle all four quarters. The ultimate losers led in the opening period 20- 16, and held the score to a tie in the final frame. But "Hyenas" showed their superiority in the mid- dle two frames, 16-10 and 20-8. The roster reads: "DYNAMITERS"--Capt. B. Vail- lincourt 6 points; Manager Alan Reddoch; Ed Salmon 12; John Hart; Albert Gilbert; Glen Fores- tal; Wm. Buck 4 points; Irvine Har- rell 8; Harold Segal 4 points; Alf Sharp 10; Total 44 points.

Alonzo Stagg's Resignation Is Just Hinted The two Canadian teams who share the National Hockey Lea- gue leadership as of this reading will both be in action tonight, and théy're both idle Sunday night-----an unusual feature of the schedule which could easily see both of them deposed. Tonight the Toronto Maple Leafs 'entertain the Chicago Black Hawks and the Montreal Canad- jens are at home to the Detroit = Red Wings. Chicago and Detroit both. have another game--Chicago taking on. the New Pork Rangers and Detroit travelling to Boston. Probably with an eye .pn to- day's Grey Cup Rugby final be- tween Winnipeg Bombers and the Argonauts at Toronto, the N.H.L. coaches have been very chary of speeches about the week-end games, and it's just as well, be- cause the N.H.L. standing still is so tight that a cough in the wrong place could cause an up- heaval. Before the week-end games start, Toronto and Montreal are tied with 19 points. Boston is third with 17, Detroit fourth with 16. New York has 13, Chicago holds the cellar with 11, The standings mean very lit- tle in this closest of early-season M.H.L. races. Chicago for instance walloped the Leafs 65-2 in Chicago Wednesday nigkt, and the Leafs are, leaving no .stone unturned to make 'sure it doesn't happen again right on their own ice to- night at Maple Leaf Gardens. The Leaf Board of strategy has concentrated on strengthening the attack, The idea is old as the hills but it still works, they hope. That is, attack, and attack, and attack. Happy Day entrains tonight or Boston to see the Bruins-Wings encounter . there Sunday night. The Leafs' board of strategy take things very seriously at this stage ard Day will also scout the Tues- day game between Hawks and Ca- nadiens at Montreal before re- turning to the bench for Leafs' Wednesday 'game in Bu.ston. "Aggies" Defeat "Buckeyes' And Stay Top Berth 'The "Aggies" under Captain Wal- ter Auld continued their winning ways in the St. Andrew's Morning Basketball League on Friday by de- feating the "Buckeyes" of Captain Tony Mayer, 70 to 50, Youthful Alan Starr proved him- self to be "best rookie of the year" by turning in a stellar performance, both on defense and offense, scoring 8 points for the winners, 'to help them retain their solid perch on the top rung of the ladder. "Buck=- eyes" strengthened their claim to sole occupancy of the cellar, but they have a strong squad that can yet make the league-leaders work if they will only turn out regularly 4 or 5 mornings each week. "AGGIES"; - Captain Walter Auld 86 points; Geo. Maeson 22 pts; Alan Starr 8 pts; A. Frolick; Len Witter- ick 4 pts; C. Marsh, W. Mozewsky, Alf Minaret, H.

BOWLING NEWS week-end | 874 B'NAI B'RITH BOWLING LEAGUE (Mayfair Lanes) This week's bowling was the rest bowling of the season. All ot tory seemed to be off with the exception of those pesky Little Foxes, who waltz- ed their way to a very easy win over Ed Wilson's Wolves, who seemed to be having a very tough night. Sid id Topps Bears finally came to life took Arn Greene's Camels for all Toul and Mac Collis' Trappers eked out a win over the Lions for two out of three games, Those within the charmed circle this week were: --Manning Swartz 874 and Lou Hyman 6 High Singles: Manning Swartz 235, Sonny Swarez aa ns 245, HO Horwich Wilson iris Swartz 222, -S for the high three of the ane (288, 335 and 251). Swartz for his SR y Mort Atkins for the high score ig team winch helped to defeat the Lions, { Our predictions have been Dion high and wide, Maybe the boys are trying too hard, anyway we are not going to pick anyone to mdke the neadlines next week, and come what may we are going to let nature take its course for the coming next week's bowling. - Special Comments It was just a case of too many boys being away this week, absorbing sume high culture. The result was that many of the teams were without their key man. Arn and Harry Greene were ab- sorbing their culture at the fights in Toronto. We did notice that some of the boys were bearing down far too hard, particularly Ben Segal, who was having a private feud with another bowler, We also notice a real improve- ment in the bowling of Sonny and Morris Swartz, Even Evenstein is show- ig signs that he is going to be in there from now on. Sam Rotish showed a great deal of improvement, also Dave alnitsky. All and all the evening was okay, and the Little Foxes were able to show the Old Fox that the tricks he had taught them were not being for- gotten, Standing Little Foxes Trappers BUSH LEAGU!
