Mr. Crossley, our Insurance man, (Metropolitan plug) certainly had a lifesaver in the shape of the Wildcats last night, as he and his Hurricanes took seven points from Pete Borrows crew who were as tame as the Young Rangers, believe me. The highest man for the Hurricanes was J. Smith with how do you like that, soft eh. highest man for the Cats was Bruce White with 583. S80 much for them, other than they had better do a lot better or they won't stay on top of the heap. That is a threat. The Strikers (Weston's Bread) had their eyes on the dough as they sent Pete Daniels and his crew home wallin' and nashin' their teeth, due to their seven points drop to the Strikers. The Bakers also received these seven points on a silver platter as they did not have one man over 600 "either. Boy jome Decpie are really lucky Despite the fi that the Easy Aces only had four men they took a point for each man with F. Glover sending the Lumberjacks back to the Bush with his 580 triple. The Lumber- jacks did not have one man over 600 either. That makes six teams out of 600. How about it fellas, we are capable than that. Well Sid Stone and our Cornhusker from a Way back, R. Evans, led the Bushwhackers to a five point gain over the Wood- Jeskefs, The rest of us just came down or the evening. Bruce Nugent tried desperately to garner more points but to no avail. Take a look at the high single and triple for the year fellas, Yea they are both Bushwhackers. Hm hm, And boy I bet Crossley is surprised to learn that he has the h triple with 755, and of course our friend Mr, Healey has the single tied up with 386, See you next week, CANADIAN SCHOOL EVOLVES ITS OWN STYLE OF SKIING By LUCIEN LACHAPELLE Canadian Press Staff Writer Ste. Marguerite, Que., Reb. 3-- (OP)--The Canadian Ski School this season rounds out its first de- cade of operation and is well on its way to evolving a peculiarly Cana~- dian style in skiing. This has been recognized by the Canadian Amateur Ski Association which heeded the request of several Canadian ski organizations and established The Travelling Ski School being carried on in North- ern Ontario and Manitoba. After years of experimentation, Canadian teachers have developed a ski style easily adapfable to Domin. ion slopes--either in east or west. It has been evolved over the years from the famed Alberg, parallel, French and Swiss techniques and, as now taught, 1s said to greatly benefit amateurs and "play by ear" y One valuable thing about the CS. 8. courses is that a westerner holi- daying in the Laurentians and tak- ing lessons there can, when he goes home, find an instructor who can pick up the same trend of teaching. One.Week Course An aspiring instructor goes through a one-week course every season for three seasons or more before he is accepted by the Can- adlan 8ki School as a qualified in- structor. Considerable influence on the de. velopment of ski technique has come from Louis Cochad of Ste. Margue- rite, chief examiner of the C.8.8. and three other Quebecers--Luggl Foeger of St. Jovite, Fritz Loosli of Lac Beauport and Emile Allais of Valcartier, These three men are ex. pert instructors and the combina. tion of styles they now teach some day will be recognized as purely Ca- nadian, "For. the first time, would-be In. structors really know and under- stand' what we are talking about," Foeger said in commenting on this winter's schoo' course. "It's really something." The skiing manual as evolved by the Canadian Ski School and the Caner "* .n Ski Instgictors' Alliance is largely responsible for this under- standing. ' ' Pleasure Is Aim In a short forword the manual states that from it there should de. velop a distinct technique adaptable not only to downhill, slalom, cross- country racing and jumping, but also to touring, the type of skiing which gives the maximum f plea- Hy tr the greatest humber of peo- o LAST NIGHT'S STARS By The Canadian Press Jimmy Conacher, Detroit wingman who scored two goals to lead the Red Wings to a 4-1 victory over Chicago.

Calgary Stamps Revamped Gridders Give Fans Hope By The Canadian Press Cal , Feb. 3--(CP)--Calgary pg enthusiasts took one look at revamped plans for the Calgary Stampeders--football edition -- to- day and confidently issued a stern warning to Regina, Winnipeg and 7| points east -- beware the Stampe- ders! & Stampeders officials have an- nounced a complete: new football deal for the 1948 season--a new deal that supporters are hopeful will bring Calgary the coveted Grey Cup, enblematic of Canadian grid supremacy. The "new look" includes forma~- tion of a quarterback club; a $10,- 000 fund now open for contribu- tions; abolition of last year's co- operative basis of sharing game profits with the players and sub- stitution of a fixed player guaran=- tee; top-notch imports from Unit- ed States gridirons; and a shower display fo the fans including bands and cheer leaders, The new clib executive, headed by peppery Tom Brook, an oil com. pany executive, is so confident of an "outstanding" season that plans for increased seating accommoda- tion already have been drawn up. "Stampeders will field a team this year that will compete on equal terms with Winnipeg, Regina or anything the east has to offer," President Brook said today. "We are going all out to improve the import situation and already have some excellent material lined up in the United States. . . "We will be signing players with- in 30 days, but final decision as to who they will be will rest with the team's coach. We expect to an- nounce the name of the coach for the coming season shortly." Name of the coach is a closely- guarded secret, but Dean Griffing, who took over the mentor's task in 1946, is considered a strong oon- tender. One former Bomber almost cer- tain to be out in uniform with Stampeders again next year is Fritz Henson, one of the greatest running backs to don molesking in Western Canada. SWEDEN TOPS POINTS RACE AT ST. MORITZ By The Canadian Press 8t. Moritz, Feb, 3--(CP)--Sweden swept far ahead Tuesday in the race for team honors in the fifth Winter Olympics. Canada's bid for a cham. plonship was interrupted when the Women's figure-skating event was postponed until Wednesday with Barbara Ann Scott leading after two compulsory figures. Soft ice was blamed for the post- ponement. Early indications were that the Olympic Championship would oe a repetition of the European cham. pionship, which Barbara Ann won at Prague last month with Eva Pawlik of Austria second. Today Miss Scott had 334.6 points for her first two compulsory figures, and Miss Pawlik was 84 points behind. A Toronto girl, Marilyn Ruth Take, was eighth in the field of 24 classy women's skaters. Canada Fliers Tied For Top In the nine.country hockey tour- nament, not sanctioned by the In- ternational Olympic Committee, Ca. nada moved into a first-place tie with Cwzchoslovakia, by defeating Italy 21.1. George Mara led the Ca- nadian scorers with five goals and five assists. The United States edged Sweden 5-2. Britain and Switzer- land did not play, owing to soft ice. Norway led the unofficial team standing Monday but when a warm sun broke over this snowy Alpe playground Tuesday, the Swedes went to the front with a double- barreled triumph in the 40.kilo- metre (25-mile) ski relay and the J5.000metre (6%-mile) speed skat- 8 bola ay More Than a Third The Swedes annexed 20 points for a total of 59 in the unofficial stand/ ing, figured on a 10.5.4-3-2.1 basis for the first six places.

But they gave a chilly reception recently to a Canadian Amateur Hockey Association decision which permits Manitoba's representative in the Western Canada playoffs to bol- ster its roster.

Anyway, Maurice (Winnipeg Free Press) Smith has cogitated and re- plied to attacks made by Dave (Re- gina Leader-Post) Dryburgh but Smith doesn't offer many alibis. He agrees "that if Manitoba hasn't got a team strong enough to compete with other clubs in the country, then that is purely Mani. toba's fault." But Smith also thinks Dryburgh could have looked a bit further ahead "He could have explained that probably the main reason why the C.A.H.A, decided to strengthen the Manitoba team was because by doing so it hoped the series between Manitoba and the Western Canada League winners Would be a financial success--which it otherwise might not me."

"It's either one or the oth. er. . .But not both." That, at least, is the way it worked out for dark-haired Betty. She took a whirl at figure skating a few years ago but found that it retarded her progress in the speed skating field and therefore gave it "It takes such constant practice to become good at figure skating," said Betty, "It's necessary to be at it all the time and I wouldn't have had any time for speed skating." Betty, who retained her North American laurels at Alpena, Mich, last month, has been speed skating since she was 10. She swept the boards in the Alpena meet--{irst girl racer ever to turn the trick-- winning in the 200 yards, the 440, the half-mile, three-quarter mile and mile, It was also the first time, that a girl had been able to win the title two years in succession, Betty's chief disappointment is that there is no women's speed skating in the olympic games ale though it is possible that she may represent Canada at the summer Olympics in track since she won the women's 200 metres event at the 1947 Canadian championships. Although an Olympic speed skat. ing title is not within her reach, Betty has hopes that women's world speed skating championships might be held this year or next. Nor is she perturbed about the fact that in such a competition, likely to be held in Europe, she would be skating against time rather than against the field as is the proce | dure in North America. officiating?
