Toronto, Ont.â€"There are times when the column gets away at the crack of the barrier and coasts down the home strettch in almost nothing flat. Now and then we start off in high, but after about three paragraphs it dwindles (we enjoy using such terms) down to a slow pace and we resort to window staring. It is then that we wander over to Woolâ€" worth‘s lunch .counter to learn about the "big doings‘" in the sport world. So toâ€"day finds the old maestro ordering one soda and two straws and listening in on the morning gossip. Hockey Highlights Azcording to the lads and lassies around said counter, Sylvanus Apps known as Syl, is the prize rookie in the N. H. L. of the year. Apps was born in Paris, Ontario, in 1914 and played junior hockey in that town for three years followed by three qeasons of intermediate puck chHasing with McMaster University of Hamilton. In the 1935â€"36 season Sylvanus starred for the ambitious city Tigers in the Senior O.H.A. He received his B.A. deâ€" gree (so the experts tell us) in the 1936 graduations at McMaster and was a point winner for our fair Dominion in the pale vault at the Olympic Games in Berlin. The said Mr. Apps signed his professional contract with Conny Smythe‘s Maple Leafs last summer. In case you are in doubt, the gentlenan in question can play cither left wing or cantre. Apps enjoys rsading books, especially if they contain big words. He never says very much but generally smiles instesd. That nickname or slogan "Tarzan of the Apps" applied by a cerâ€" tain writer taps right along with the big fellow.

That is to say Crosby sings (croons if you prefer) well, Burns is funny, the orchestra is a ‘bit of okay and they usually have some guests of the silver screen. But the enrtire menu is slowed up because the entire cast is introduced by Ken Carpenter, the anâ€" nouncer and then Bing does it over again. Then, Sir Crosby has to thank the guests individually and they thank him and everybody falls all over the script until the boys in the band decide to play the next number or the anâ€" nouncer tosses a commercial at you. On the other hand (no we‘re not leftâ€" handed), Vallee has perfect timing. When his guest has finished and the applause is at its height, the Yankees go into a fast number and in a few bars Rudy makes the next announceâ€" ment. None of that "you must come and see us again, gcodâ€"bye,. good luck, success ahead" business. Fred Astaire‘s hour is shaky, but we do get the odd laugh from the efforts of one Charles Butterworth. We still like Astaire‘s tap dancing on the screen but we wish Frederick would give up the idea of singing. There is a lot more to add to this reâ€" view but not just now. Suffice to say that the St. Catharines station is still entertaining its listeners during the afternoon race broadcast with that Engâ€" lish classic, "Swimming with the Woâ€" (Brantford Expositor) A number of recent robberies in which guns have been used, prove that there are too many weapons of this sort in use in Ontario . . . Thinks Too Many Guns Now in Use Throughout Canada The question that naturally arises is, "How is it that there are so many guns in the possession of criminals in Onâ€" tario?" Several years ago the Federal Parliament passed a very strict law regarding the use and possession O% fireâ€"arms. It is supposed to require the registration of all weapons, and to severely restrict the possession of them. Moreover, it requires an additional term of two years to be added to the sentence of anyone convicted of a crime who has a revolver or any sort of danâ€" gerous weapon in his possession. % Notwithstanding this law there have been a large number of robberies with euns in which numerous lives have been lost Whatever is the cause there should be a determined effort to deprive the criâ€" minally minded classes of fircâ€"arms. Surely it should be possible to discover the possesors of these weapons, as they must be concealed in the home or boarding houses of these men. It is a problem that requires the earnest atâ€" tention of the authorities. The carryâ€" ing of these weapons in too many cazes enables the criminals to accomplish their purpose and to escape. If there is any defect in the law it should be New Yorker: It was our privilege reâ€" cently to see a copy of an interoffice memorandum addressed to the staff of Warner Brothers by the publicity diâ€" rector: "Frank Prince will hereafter be known as Fred Lawrence instead of George Wells (This refers to Frank Prinz)." remedied SERVICE 21 PINE STREET NORTH ‘TIMMINS, ONTARIO well!l OKay Mr. Printer:! "most merciless battle" in hockey that he remembers. It‘s supposed to have taken place at South Porcupine on New Year‘s Day, 1913, when Haileybury came up to play an exhibition affair with Porkies. Mike Rodden‘s " Most Merciless Battle" As Recalled Toâ€"day The Toronto sports writer has forâ€" gotten some of the typical Rodden moâ€" ments in the game, say local men who recall the game as "nothing out 6f the ordinary." Archie® Brown, jJudgeâ€"ofâ€" play for that game remembers Mike as one of the offenders. "I caught Mike byâ€"the shirt and pulled him off," the Timminns lawyer recalls. Archie Brown, Judge of Play when Haileybury Met Porâ€" cupine at South End, New Year‘s Night, 1913, Says Mike Himself Was No Gentle Playet. Mike Rodden‘s been telling the world viléeged to take his team out of action (through the Globe and Mail) about the | in retaliation for such a playful New Here‘s Mike‘s story as published in his "Highways of Sport" column in the Globe and Mail:â€" "An old friend, Ken Buchan, who is now located in Kapuskasing (forty miles west of Cochrane), looks back and says with fervour born of convicâ€" tionâ€"that the senior exhibition game staged between Haileybury and Porcuâ€" pine on the latter‘s ice twentyâ€"fowu years ago, was the roughest he ever played in and he adds, "How about tellâ€" ing the oldâ€"timers about that game throuzh your columns?" "No Title, Money or Prestige" "We will have to go along with Mr. Buchan in agreeing that there nevet was a more merciless battle than thatl â€"at least if one did occur we didn‘t see it, play in it or hear about itâ€"and the strangest part about it was that neither title, money nor prestige was involved. Just a few old grievances here and there, with three strenuous players on ons team and as many on the other tangling as free lances, unhindered by league supervision, furnished the setâ€"up for the preâ€"historicâ€"like struggle which shocked South Porcupine fans that eventful New Year‘s night of 1913. "Haileybury, having shown power in previous games, were invited to take their entire squad to Porcupine. but at the last moment found that most of the regulars were unable to make the trip. With an allâ€"star team they had defeated the mighty McGill University machine, but when the roll call was sounded for the journey to the Gold Country only Goalkeeper Charlie storin and the writer responded. In this emergency, Jack Roddery, managet of the tsam, enlisted Milt. Austin, a veteran, and five juniors, the latter being Dinny Breen, then 17 years of age; Ncil Ferguson, 17; Freedy McParâ€" land, 17; Ken. Buchan, 16, and Archie Briden, 15. Briden One of The Best "We venture to say that this was the youngest "senior" squad that ever flashâ€" ed across the hockey horizonâ€"but, make no mistake about it, these youngâ€" sters of the North know nearly all the answers even if they never suspected that they would ‘be so illâ€"treated in their sudden debut into. higher comâ€" pany. . . . Archie Briden and Dinny Breen, who made good in professional ranks after serving overseas, that the game in South Porcupine was just plain "murder." "Almost as soon as the puck was facâ€" ed to start hostilitiesâ€"this word is usâ€" ed advisedlyâ€"two of the home players indicated forcibly that they were preâ€" pared to "carve" out a victory, cost what it might. They didn‘t check, they simply swung, and after this mode of warfare had gone on for about ten minutes and some of the "kids" on the forward line had been cut down, Storin,. Austin and the writer entered right merrily into the debate and did much lusty, stinging swinging. It was all very jolly and fine fun, also remunerâ€" ative, so the doctors said. "In the midst such hilarity we managed to penetrate the barrier and score a goal, which was a very foolish thing to do because the home forces then actually became arousedâ€"previâ€" ously they had merely been joking . . . We went on from there and eventually took the verdict, but the chaos that existed beggars descriptionâ€"unless the same could be expressed in ‘book form . .. . We doubt if there was one player on either side who escaped unmarked during that ferocious Donnybook, yet it was witnessed by the largest squad of nolicemen we ever saw assembled in a rink. . . . The Porcupine miners‘ strike was in full sway at the time and many "Provincials" were among the spectaâ€" tors. "During the second intermission the Haileybury manager insisted that the guarantee be paid, and he got away with his bluff. However, had he béen handed the money for travelling exâ€" penses before the game began much of the trouble would have been averted. He would, at any rate, have been priâ€" Included in the new Board of Directors of the National Llfs; Assurance Company of Canada are t_lle q_bovg t't}__l'ee__‘vmelyx known Canadians.

Year‘s welcome. 1 "The climax to this hectic fray ##ime in the last few minutes, when Quinn, a Porcupine player, rounded the net and struck Storin a cruel blow on the head. A Haileybury defencemanâ€"name Geletâ€" edâ€"resented such frivolity and knocked Quinn to the ice. The police chief vaulted the boards and slithered to the scene, bent on showing his authority at the expense of a visitor. But nimbleâ€" witted ‘Dinny Breen saw him coming and quickly shoved the staggering Storâ€" in on top ‘of the prostrate Quinn. When the chief arrived, he thought that Storin, the original victim, was the ofâ€" fender so he placed him under arrest. (And won a V.C., or something, for bravery, when performing his duty.)" That ‘"name deleted" gentleman in the paragraph must have been Mike himself. In the days when he played for Haileybury, he was able to hold his own with the best of the rough players. As Mr. Brown Recalls It As for the row at the last when Quinn is supposed to have struck Storin, Mr. Brown recalis that Storin really was the offender. "He out with his warclub and hit him," Archie claims of Storin. The chief of police really did have Storin arrested but the lawyer followed the pair to their secluded room and persuaded the police officer that after all it was only a game. And everybody went home as happy as usual. In 1913 Porcupine district hockey was a ‘"blood and thunder‘"‘ league, one of the camp‘s "original" hockey players recalls. With Hollinger, Dome, South Porcupine, and Acme in the group, it was never known which players would play for the teams until they came out on the ice. "Hidden‘" players were frequentâ€"and betting was high. Ontario League Coniaurum 3, Bucks 2.

Their lead was never threatened throughout the game. Frank J. McFarlane, president of the MacFarlane Long Lac Gold Mines, Ltd., is at the company‘s property in the Little Long Lac area, to supervise the resumption of drilling which was susâ€" pended last October after favourable and ercouraging results had been obâ€" tained. The first drill is now at the property. Rcyals: Bastien, â€" Waisn, Renaud, Mariracci, Therriault, L. Renaud, Barâ€" Carie. Consumers: Lemieux, BRirard, Morin, CGuinard, Turcotte, Smith, Gosselin, Savarard, Saicem. The company, whch is in excellent financial condition, has contracted for an extensive drilling campaign in adâ€" dition to an enlarged surface exploraâ€" tory programme to include the southern portion of the claims which has hitherto been untouched. Within the next few days Carl F. Dietz, prominent Ameriâ€" can engineer, and one of the directors of the MacFarlane company, will also make a trin to the property, to superâ€" vise the work of the crews. The present campaign is a continuaâ€" tion of the program recommended by Lewis A. Dunham, consulting engineer, last summer, whose favourable report on the property convinced the board of directors that every effort should be made to explore the claims thoroughly. A rew vein was disclosed on the last drilling when the final hole yielded $18.90 across 31 inches and this vein has since been traced on the surface for 500 feet, varying from three to twelve feet in width.

Hockey The case of Robert "Red" Hamill, Copper Cliff junior hockey player, charged with assauilting Victor Virgill, North Bay player at North Bay last Tuesday night, was remanded one week Monday morning by Magistrate J. H. Red Hamill Case is Adjourned One Week MéCurray at the request of Hamill‘s solicitor. H. J. Reynolds, K.C., North Suggestion that the Assault Charge may be Dropped. Hamill is under bail of $100 and under suspension by the Northern Ontario Hockey Association. A definite suspenâ€" sion term has not been set by the N. O. H. A. as yet, Secretary W. A. Thompâ€" son said toâ€"day. Reports that the charge against Haâ€" mill will be dropped are neither denied nor confirmed by police. Questioned this week at North Bay, Coach Fred case is in their hands and it is up to them to decide whether there is enough evidence to proceed with the charge. MKenna of Scollard Hall, for whom Virgill plays hockey, said, "It is a matâ€" tar for the police from now on. The Secretary Thompson of the N.O.H.A. said Monday morning he could be quotâ€" ed as saying it is a matter for the asâ€" sociation, not the police court. "If the boy had been seriously hurt it would have been different but in this case I think the N.OH.A. should be allowed to handle matters. It only creates bad feeling between North Bay and Sudâ€" bury and Copper Cliff if such matters go to court." Asked if Scollard Hall would make any move to have the charge dropped Coach McKenna answered negatively. The NOH.A. secretary opined that if the refereeing in the early stages of the game had been more strict it is unlikely any trouble would have develâ€" "I don‘t like to see the matter go to court, for no one will ‘be any farther ahead in the end and bad feelings will have been created," Mr. Thompson further stated. The N.O.H.A. official said he has been informed by Coach Max Silverman of the Copper Oliff club that Hamill has been taught a lesson by the suspension and will be more submissive and orderly in future.

Cache Bay Mayor is Ousted from Office Judge Finds him Disqualiâ€" fied Through Selling to Men on Relief. In the first judgment of its kind ever handed down in Ontario, His Honor Judge J. A. S. Ploufle, of the District of Nipissing declares Mayor Leonard St. George of Cache Bay unseated, and the mayor‘s chair of that town is now vacant. Judge Plouffe‘s decision that St. George is not qualified to hold office as mayor is given on the grounds as a merchant accepting relief vouchers, he has a financial claim against the Town of Cache Bay. In the judgment, his honor says in part: " ... I further find that it was the intention of the legislature that merchants having claims for relief could not qualify as mayors, reeves, or councillors, because it is possible that being members of a municipal body, their personal interâ€" ests might conflict with their public duties." No costs were allowed John E. Jessup, relator in the action. The decision of Judge Plouffe crowns with success the legal efforts of John E. Jessup, Cache Bay, defeated candiâ€" date in the last mayoralty election, to have his 25â€"yearâ€"old opponent unseated. The action was instituted some time ago, and the case opened at North Bay January 27, with Walter Little of Mcâ€" Gaughey Little representing Jessup, and J. H. McDonald, K.C., of McDonald Gould, appearing for St. George. The action was instituted on the grounds that St. George‘s business tax for 1936, amounting to $12.30, had not been paid prior to the nomination meeting, and that he had a financial claim against the town for relief vouchâ€" Judge Plouffe decided on the evidencs submitted that the business tax was paid in time. ~ He had the testimony of St. George, who swore the tax was paid December 28, shortly before the nominâ€" ation meeting that night. St. George swore he gave his messenger boy, Joe Young, the money to take to Tax Colâ€" lector Henry Poff. A Mr. Gauthier testified to being in St. George‘s store at the time, and recalled clearly that the boy had gone out and returned with the receipt. All three were posiâ€" tive it was December 28. Mr. Poff, on the other hand, claimed it was December 31 when the business tax was paid by Young for St. George. However, Judge Ploufle was of the opinâ€" ion that Mr. Poff, who is about 80 years 1 old and partially deaf, may have made a mistake about the date. In any case! the tax was ruled paid by his honor. /‘ Wichita Eagle:â€"Only two per cent. of the nation‘s income went for charity in 1936, the lowest in many years.
