True, some rookie pitching strength has been added in John Tising from Louisville and Clarence Struss from Little Rock and Kansas City. Three new inflelders, Jim Browne of ,'Little Rock, Wilbur Brubaker on optisn with Kansas City, and Bernard Cobb of Fort Wayne, will attempt to catch the eye of Manager Traynor in spring work, but none of th:se rookies is going to supplant the veterans. The outfield will be the Waner brothers and Jensen, with Dan Hafey fighting for a berth and proving helpful to have around. If there is one sport in which Manâ€" ager Te Traynor feels that he has helped his clit3, it is in catching. Last season he was far from satisfied.

He saw a couple of particularly narrow escapes and then he gave chase. One of the men chased was carrying a large parcel which seemed to hamper his progress. Eventually the man dropped the parcel and then got away easily. The constable saw the parcel and when he realized that he could not overtake the man he picked up the parcel. To his surprise it conâ€" tained no less than nine quarts of alâ€" cohol. The parcel is held at the C.PR. department of investigation. It will be handed over to the owner, provided Ahe can show he is the real owner. Whether it would be wise for a man to give such proof is another manner. But anyway if that transient has come to Timmins as so many of them do, then at least he can know where his liaquor is. It sounds like the farâ€"away old days of the Ontario Temperance Act, but the authorities at Sudbury are lookinz for the owner of a parcel containing nine quarts. A number of transients were gathered in the C.P.R. yards at Sudbury apparently trying to catch a freight out of the city. A railroad conâ€" stable saw a group of the transients toâ€" gether and made for them. They all flegq so rapidly that he could not get near them.

Oswego, Waâ€" tertown and Ogdensburg on one side of the St. Lawrence, with Ottawa, Brockville and Perth on the other make the sixâ€"team loop.

"You could see the Toronto Maple Leafs on the ice all the way throuzh the game," said one, exâ€" plaining that the same tactics were ‘used as in the big professional club. That‘s only natural too, for more than one of the Nationals will be seen on the ice at the Gardens one of these days in a Leafs uniform. The Nationals showed no mercy to Quebec Aces in the first Eastern semiâ€" final on Tuesday night when the Toâ€" ronto team outscored the Quebec champions 16â€"4 in Toronto. The second game in the bost twoâ€"outâ€"pfâ€"three series is in Quebec toâ€"night but most fans are looking on it as a mere forâ€" mality.
