Glad to see those Skylarks take 3 points This is their first 3-point game this year, Maybe their luck has turned. They have a new bowler in there and maybe that accounts for their win, We wish to welcome Howard Bell to our club and hope he has brought some good luck to the Skylarks. Well if those Alley Cats had bowled the Gutter Kids or Rockets they would not have got 3 points. 80 we shall see what the Gutter Kids can do to these two high teams in the next two weeks.

Hayward, 98 Sport Shorts From Britain London, Dec. 16 -- (CP) -- There isn't much fear that English foot- ball league third division clubs will damage Tommy Lawton, Notts County's £17,000 . ($68,000) centre- | forward. Tommy's presence means increased attendances -- and money in the bank. Since the lowly club surprised the football world with the highest transfer fee in history it has en- joyed prosperity at the gate' and aldo on the field. Club officials estimate the presence of Tommy in the lineup has added £1, a game to receipts and his brilliant play has given the team the necessary "push" to win games. Opposing forwards and defence- men have tremendous respect for Lawton's prowess and they have strict orders to keep him well cov- ered and to hold down rough tac- tics in an effort to stop him. His absence from the lineup would re- sult in decreased gates--both home and away. The County isn't taking chaboes {on Tommy, Officials have taken | out a £25,000 insurance policy on him--the highest on record for any footballer--and the club will re. ceive that sum if Lawton is totally disabled either by injury on the field or accident off it. Nottingham fans have shown their pleasure at Tommy's purchase from Chelsea by sending donations ranging from a few shillings to £5. * +P "Hell's Bells," shrieked the rail. birds at Birmingham race-track, "he's going the wrong way."

Celebrate at the 3 NEW YEAR'S EVE GAYEST PARTY IN OSHAWA Tickets on Sale at Kinloch's Men's Wear Wednesday, December 17th a Spicy Bits From Other By GEORGE FOSTER Canadian Press Staff Writer Regina, Dec. 17--(CP)--A New York publicist trying to put the fix on the use of the words "hat trick" is going to have a tough time con- vincing Scotty (Regina Leader- Post) Melville that the phrase isn't here to stay. A one-man campaign is being waged . against the term by Stan Saplin, New York Rangers' publicity writer, who says in his Madison Square Gardens program that al- though the saying has been around longer "than many of us" it still hasn't caught on and has to be ex- plained each time it's used. In his counter-offensive, Melville suggests that not only has the phrase been arqund since long be- fore Saplin, but that it will still be around long after Saplin, Really a Cricket Term "The term probably originated on the cricket field, where a hat trick occurs when a bowler disposes of three players on successive balls," he relates. "From there it crept in- to soccer and then into practically every sport where goals are parts of the proceedings." Originally, however, a "hat trick" applied only to three consecutive goals. Morey Rimstad of Edmonton Flyers of the Western Canada Sen- jor Hockey League got one against Lethbridge Maple Leafs last week-- he scored the only two goals of the second period and the first goal of the third. It has generally come to mean, however, the scoring of three goals in one game. As proof that people know what the term means, Melville points out that the practice of giving a shiny new fedora to players performing the "hat trick" has spread from cricket to hockey. It has been done in sections of the Pacific Coast Hockey League for some time and this year a Regina Haberdasher is dishing them up to members of Re- gina Capitals who blink the red light three times in Western Senior games, A Dark Horse? Every year about this time they start picking the teams to cop the Cups.

"Our cub will be better next year," Billy admits. "But it will have to be improved, too. The Giants will be very dangerous if they can get some more pitching to go with their attack and the Card- inals and Dodgers always are the teams to beat."
