Among them apparently is Eddie Eagan, chairman of the New York State Athletic Commission," who promised he would investigate the official voting which gave Jack Lamotta, the 2-to-1 favorite, a split- By PERCY GHENT There is no springtime music | more delightful than the sweet and pensive whistle of the white-throat- ed sparrow. When pioneer settlers from France | heard the white-throat singing in the woodlands of New France bbe- | © side the St. Lawrence, they paid it | the highest compliment they could | think of by calling it the rossignol, | the French name for the night- ingale. It is a bird Canadians should | love and admire througholp its wide range from the Maritimes to | the Mackenzie River, for it sings of | their country. | In the United States they call | this musical sparrow the Peabody | bird, be: ause its song rendered into | English has an im.gina.y resem- blance to "Old Sam Peavody, Pea- body, Peabody." What the bird does sing, of couise and as any | careful listener will confirm, is "Bweet, sweet, Canada, Canada, Canada!" } A bird with a high economic va- lue, the white-throated spairow | eas a great variety of insect pests | suca as destructive beetles, grass. | hoppeis and locusts, as well as the seeds o ftroubiesome weeds. Its fa- vorite breeding haunts are the glades of coniierous forests with a special affection for the northern firs and spruces. Definitely, it is a bird with Canadian tastes both in music and habitat! Diop for drop, the poison secreted by the black widow spider is said to be more daedly than that of the rattlesnake. Yet, in the full know- ledge of tiie grave risk he ran, Dr. Allan Walker Blair, famed Cana- dian radiologist and cancer spe- cialist who died at Regina in Nov- ember, once placed a hungry speci- men of the venomous species on his ha .d and watcned it take a 10- second bite into his little finger. It was while Dr. Blair was asso- ciate proiessor of pathology and bacteriology at the University of | Alabama in 1933, that the grim ex- periment was made. At the time, the precise effect of the black wi- dow venom on the human heart had not been adequately investigat- ed, and the scientist submitted to the bite so that his colleagues coyld study su.h effects at first hand. So great was the agony induced | by the poison that Dr, Blair was | hurried to hospital. Yet he refused all opiates so that the reactions could be scudied and recorded dur- ing the acutest stages of his suf- ferin. And througiout the dan- ge ous phases of his illness and the ta dy convalescence which follow- | ed, tie study was pursued. For many days before the spider bit Dr, | Bl i, its diet of house and other | flies had been withheld to make it | bite with zest.

Bibeault Honored By U.S. Puck Loop Minneapolis, March 26 (AP)-- Paul Bibeault, today was awarded $800 cash, two trophies and a gold puck as result of his play this sea- son in the United States Hockey League.

Spicy Bits From Other Sports Cols. By FRANK KAPLAN Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, March 25--(CP) -- The National Hockey League is becom- ing an employer in a big way, in- cluding a pension plan for players who have played 10 years or more in the league. , When the N.H.L. starts paying, it will have a pot of about $2,000,- 000 to dig into, calculates Dan {Liichend-Walerioo Record) Od- ette. The plan is "One of the greatest advancements in sport" and is helping the right people--the play- ers who make hockey the big busi- ness it is, Odette writes. Inaugurated at the start of the 1947-48 season, the pension plan is one to which players and teams contribute. Each player pays $900 a year while the N.HL. kicks in with $60,000 annually. Odette figures that with 20 men to a team contributing, the amount turned in each year by the six teams is about $108,000. "Since pensions aren't payable until a man reaches 45 and no man in the league is over 35, that means first = payments will not be made for 10 years hence. "By that time, annual payments from the players will total $1,080,- 000 and the N.HL.'s share will be ,000. Every player signed to an N.HL. contract is covered. "If a player has nine years of service to his credit and has paid his assessment for the 10th year he will be entitled to the full pen- sion of $80 a month for life, when De reaches the pensionable age of "If a player dies his widow suc ceeds to his rights." Odette thinks these pensions are fine but he regrets that the plan came too late for the players of by-gone days. Hockey Cycle Hockey is turning into a merry- go-round, says Red (Guelph Mer- cury) MacLeod. Players start young in junior ranks, work up to the senior outfits, to NHL. and then back down to the senior with their amateur®cards in hand. Senior hockey took a back seat to the Junidr teams a few years back, says Rex, but now a senior outfit has little trouble whipping the junior, largely hecause of the return -of former N.H.L. stars to senior ranks.

Building on Monday night, There was a fine turnout of members, a pleasant change from other years when a mere smattering of mem- bers attended this, the most im- portant meeting of the year. Néw President Well' Qualified Chick has been an active rhem- ber of the ski club for a good num- ber- of years. Although he works in Toronto .and commutes daily, he has his finger in numerous organ- izations not only as member, but in executive pesitions. The Junior Chamber of Commerce and Osha- wa Tennis Club are two of Chigk's hobbies, not to mention the amount of work he does every year for our own club. On behalf of the club in general and ourselves we want to wish him every success in the presidential chair and let us all hope that we have some snow so that Chick can do us justice. Murphy's Movies Marvellous Mr. Murphy was on the beam with his movies at the meeting on Monday night, thrilling all pres- ent with his own snow scenes and racing pictures. His photographic ability speaks for itself when one sees. the beautiful scenes that Mr. Murphy has transposed to celluloid His apologies for lack of this sea- son's skiing film was well under- stood with snow conditions as they have been this year, We all enjoyed seeing the old ones and those of last years competitions at Brimmicombes. The club should consider itself most fortunate in having a man as capable as Mr. Murphy who is willing to spend so much of his own time in photo- graphing our winter activities. The nominating committee had a man sized job in picking an exe- cutive to be voted on at our meet- ing what with the numerous refus- als that were encountered. Every- one seems to be too busy to take on ski club work but we all enjoy using the facilities that the club offers as soon as the snow hits the trails. This refusing to help is of- ten understandable but there are occasions when it is a condition to be regretted. Next year if the nom- inating committee approaches you to run for election, please consider the offer carefully before saying derably and you will work, enjoy the New Executive Elected With the executive and commit tee chairman that is up for this year the club can't help but im- prove and enlarge, With several nominations from the general membership at the meeting on Monday . night the executive and committee chairmen are as fol- lows: President, Chick Hewett; Honourary President, J.
