This was the poorest bowling done this sea- son and there weren't any record brok- en either. Doodlebugs are really going to town in this section when they blanked the Rangers, Go-Gettors doing the same thing to the Jesters (but | their captain bribes the opposing team with Dentyne). Typhoons give the Boomerangs a going over to the tune of three points. Skippers fared better than usual when they took two from the Blitzers and Commandoes two from | the Quakers. There were only two ex- ceptionally good scores this week when Carl Creamer got 545 )304, 241), and Jack Ross 519 (300, 219). The only one in the 400s for the men was Max Col- lis with an even 400. Two new names in the 400's for the ladles in the per- sons of Helen Henderson 450, Norma Bentley 413 This was the two scores that won the points for the Typhoons. In the 200's for the ladles were Hurst 210, Bea Ross 207, Ada Lockwaad 206, and Wilda Law 201.

They nipped Victor's Sports and Cycle for two points. Karn's, laying Oshawa Bakery, and Hayden ing Coca Cola's were both going all- out to try to weaken the Billiards' lead. | However, Oshawa Bakery and the Cokes were in there trying just as hard, and came out with one point aplece. Osh- awa Furriers, who also were in a tle second-spot last week, fell back in the running a little, when McCallum Transports set them baek on_ thelr néels with a two to one count. In the other fixture, Lock's took two from Pearl's. Phyl. Fordham was in there in her usual style, knocking them down for a lovely 792 triple (305).

It saw the high team, the | Allev Cats, take quite a whitewash |at the hands of Porky's Pets. This is | the Alley Cats second black out of the season. But they are far enough ahead 1 | that this night's black out does not | change their standing. But they had | better not have too many as some of | these other teams are coming up fast. | Especially those Skylarks. Thev have | taken 3 points each night for the last | six weeks. This will be a team beat | in play-off time, and so 'will those Gut- ter Kids, if they bowl like they did | last night. Alf. Beal had a wonderful night, he took men's high double with handicap of 588, which is going to take | romething to beat. He is on the Roc- kets team and Pearl Pike of the Roc- kets bowled a record last week for la- dies. So IT am really proud of my Roce kets though we were whitewashed last night, We are still in there, Joe Follest bowled a nice high double for the Gutter Kids of 544, but he still couldn't beat Alf's score. Grand bowling fel- lows, The following teams took 3 pts.: Gutter Kids, Skylarks, Porkey's Pets, Flyers, Live Wires, from Push Overs, Allev Cats Bombers, Black Cats and | Rockets.

With spring training a little more than a month away, few contract squabbles have been reported by the clubs which have revealed the sign- ing of athletes for the coming sea- son, Three players, catcher Jim Hegan of Cleveland and first sacker Fer- vis Fain and outfielder Elmer Valo of Philadelphia Athletics are among hose who have admitted they are dissatisfied with terms 'offered by their clubs. Cincinnati Reds have signed the most players so far--22--with Bos- ton Braves next with 20 and, New York Giants third with 19. New York Yankees have signed the most players among American League clubs, 18, Three teams--Brooklyn Dodgers, Philadelphia Phillies and St. Louis Browns havent announced the signing of any players while Chica- go White Sox and Chicago Cubs are reported to have signed one apiece, Seven clubs reported the signing of 12 players yesterday with the Reds and Detroit Tigers leading the day with three each. The Tigers now have 12 in the fold. Outfielders Terry Moore and Chuck Diering signed with the St. Louis Cardinals, while pitcher Spud Chandler of the Yanks and hurler Kirby Higbee of Pittsburgh came to terms with their respective clubs. KEEP HANDS TOGETHER By ALEX J, MORRISON My friend of more than 35 ars, Dr, Edward B. Jones, pull- 1 a trick on me that I run into uite often. He stepped up to hit ae ball on the first tee with the humb and forefinger of his right and projected out from the club 1s though both were stiff and un- ible to bend into the position 1eeded to hold tle .club properly. Through the years the doctor, iike most golfers, has suffered at times from too much right hand in his swing. To the corrective measures I have given him he has added a few of his own. In most of these he is just kidding him- . self. While I recognize his right < to > this'I don't like to be made a party to this kidding as I am by watching it without comment, After the doctor hit a short but straight tee shot I had him admit that he kept his right thumb. and "orefinger loose from the club in an attempt to prevent his right hand from taking full Sn 4 2 a charge during the~swing. Then I explained the Impracticability of such a measure, I told him that a closeup of his right hand made by a movie 'camera during his swing would ghow that every time he started with his fingers loose they would tighten some- time before the clubhead struck th» ball and then loosen again. In other words by starting the right hand too loose he encour- aged an intermittent change in the position of the hand through the swing. Instead of having the hand opening and closing it should be kept in the same posi- tiom, in fact it must, if control is to be had. Once you have placed your fingers on the club firmly try to maintain this firmness and be assured it will not result in too much right hand. The most effective step toward position thronehont the swing 13 to hold them together snugly as shown in the pictures above, ' 9 | plained that while there were 121 Keeping your 'hands in the same Spicy Bits From Other 'Sports Cols. By AL VICKERY Canadian Press Staff Writer Winnipeg, Jan, 20--(CP)--Canad- fan Curling Associations may take a dim view of it, but Grant Watson of Winnipeg, winner of the recent Nipawin, Sask., automobile bonspiel and twice . member of Canadian championship rinks, says the Nipa- win 'spiel is "much tougher" than curling for the Canadian title, Quizzed by Scotty (Winnipeg Free Press) Harper, Watson ex- rinks entered in the Nipawin affair, not more than 10 of them were ca- pable of winning the cars, but six of these 10 were from Winnipeg. Harper said the Nipawin 'spiel made money this year, with more than $5000 coming in through broadcasting rights while good crowds watched the games each day. Although the idea of a *"com- mercialized" bonspiel was frowned on by various curling associations, no move was made to halt the pro- ceedings, But if rumors are correct that other cities and towns are talk- bonspiel will wear itself out. "If we get top many of these af- fairs that will kill it," Watson told |r Harper. To Retire After Next Fight i dn Grd The scars of battle having disappeared, Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis came out of his cloister to meet the press. He is shown with Sol Strauss in New York. The latter is showing the champ the famous photo, made by remote control, which shows the champ with his pants on the resin at the moment when Jersey Joe Walcott seemed to have the heavyweight crown in his grasp. Louis said that win, lose or draw, he'll quit the ring after the eturn bout with Walcott. So, : pk Anyway, Nipawin officials are go- ing right ahead with preparations for their third annual 'spiel, with ideas of increasing pris:s which this year totalled around $25,000. Not content with patrolling the ice lanes, members of the Commer- cial Ice Hockey League now are in. troducing roller hockey to Winni- peg fans. Winnipeg Tribune sports writers, say ice hoekey rules will prevail, the only difference being the use of a red fibre puck instead of the usual black rubber disc. Leafs Try Again Tonight In Boston Toronto Maple Leafs are back at full strength with the return of Captain Syl Apps and defenceman Garth Boesch, and they're leading the National Hockey League by two points over Detroit Red Wings. Whether that happy state of affairs for Toronto fans will prevail Thurs day morning is doubtful. Tonight the Leafs take on the fifth-place Bruins at Boston and if the 'league-leaders win, that regu- larly full house of 13,900 fans in the Boston Garden will be awfully sur- prised. Because Leafs haven't beat- en the Bruins on Boston ice since March, 1046. : The second and third-place teams in the present standing clash when Detroit Red Wings invade the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden, and the third game of the night has the climbing Montreal Canadiens playing at the tail-end Chicago Black Hawks. All in all, the standings could be tightened up considerably, if the night's games produce surprises. If the goalies have their way, Aiming At Flyweight Title High hopes for the world flyweight title are entertained by and for 22. year-old Dickie O'Sullivan, of Finsbury Park, England. His impressive eight rounds points victory over Emile Famechon puts him up in the top class with Jackie Paterson, Rinty Monaghan and Dado Marino, One of six fighting brothers, Dickie next faces Terry Allen in an eliminator. that he should be ready to meet the winner of the Paterson-Monaghan world title fight, which must be decided by March 31. ig A After points are going to be hard to get tonight. At the moment Harry Lum- ley of Detroit and Bill Durnan of the Canadiens are tied for 'he lead with an average of only 2.47 goals against them. And Toronto's Turk Broda and Boston's Frank Brimseck are within decimal points of the leaders, After tonight's full card there's only two games Saturday, with Chi. | cago at Toronto and Detroit at Mon- treal, and all clubs again in action Sunday.

Instead of trying to get everything at once, they should adopt the "Smorgasbord system" -- a little bit here and a little bit there --in hopes of eventually achieving satisfactory results. As a starter, why shouldn't they ask that pro scouts be forbidden to approach a college player until they had first consulted his coach and college presidents . .. That way the collegians would get at least an even break and, as far as this writ. er can learn, no college coach wants to stand in the way of a player who has a chance to become a high- paid big-leaguer. It's the back door approach and the signing of kids who likely will spend their baseball lives in the mi- nors that causes most of the squawks. A total of 93 New Jersey born foals have been nominated (at 10 aplece) for the 1948 New Jersey fu- turity at Monmoth Park. Additional fees of $50 are due June 1...
