French Gridder Arouses Interest in Football Wars Rookies Look Good In Final Of Three Leaf Showings Here Ot:tawa, Oct. 28.â€"A lagging Frenchâ€" Caradian interest in gridiron classics has esn stimulated by Ottawa Rough Riders‘ spectacular success this fall with several Frenchâ€"Canadian players on the line and Wilf Tremblay, rated by experts as the season‘s football naâ€" tural, burning up the backfield. The exploits of the 21â€"yearâ€"old Tremâ€" blay, dubbed ‘"Twinkleâ€"Toes" by local sport seers, after Fritzie Hanson of Winnipeg Blue Bombers, have whipped up new enthusiasm in the French disâ€" tricts of Hull and Ottawa‘s lower town. when Saturday‘s thousands mill into Landsdowne Park for the Big Four game here between Ottawa and Toronâ€" to Argonauts, there will be several thousand Frenchmen in the crowd of 13,000 who can‘t be wrorg in rooting for Tremblay, Leo Seguin, Ritchie and Arnie Charbonneau, Herve Pilon and Norm Bertrand on the Ottawa roster. Tremblay‘s jump into the national sport spotlight has caught the fancy of local fans, particularly since he is a native of Hull and the only Frenchâ€" Norm Bertrand on the Ottawa roster.

Insofar as the propaganda battle beâ€" inz carried on in conjunction with World War Number 2, is concerned, Germany seems to be coming cut secâ€" ond best. CSeveral times the Gorman Propaganda Ministry has been caught stupid‘y lying, such as when it insisted that the battleship the Ark Royal was sunk. In that case he attempt to take advantage of the similarity in names between the Ark Royal and the Royal Oak, the ship which actually was sunk, was rather clumsy. Germany has yet to admit the loss of even one subpmarine in eight weeks‘ warfare. The Allies, it seems, are doing it rather differently. By promptly reâ€" portinz disasters and not so promptly, victories, the British Ministry has manâ€" aged to convince the world that ithe meagre information coming from offiâ€" cial spokesmen is at least the truth. Ancther astute piece of propaganda2 was the publishing of the White Paper, by former Ambassador to Germany, Sir Nevile Henderson. The first publication was a sellâ€"out and now Sir Nevile has authored another paper, a 12,000 word, pungent and witty firstâ€"hand study of Hitler, the Nazis and Germany.

On Saturday afternoon when the third game was played, the Blues won their first victory 9 goaals to First Game Speed of the first game on Thursday night was not fast. The fans were disâ€" appointed with the performance staged by the Leafs and at times did not hesiâ€" tate to show it. The rookie line outskated the veteran blues and "Red" Heron was the hero of the evening. The flashy, smoothâ€"skatâ€" ing wingmen tore down into Blues terâ€" ritory time and again, stickâ€"handled his way through defencemen, and drilled the rubber in at goalie Stein. Kelly supplied some excitement when he and Apps tangled. They both were sent off by local Referse Lauder and Wilder. Soon after his return, the temâ€" pestucus Kelly mixed it up again, this time with Hamilton. Second Game On Friday the players seemed 1O have their ice legs and the game was faster. At times it was really speedy and the fans were treated to several nice exhibitions of playâ€"making.

The rookies‘ 7 to 4 victory also was due, in a large measure to "Turk" Broda, the compact redhead guarding the nets. Following the game on Friday, the McIintyre gave a party for the players in the community building. Members of the hockey teams in the camp were invited and had an opportunity to meet the players and officials of the Maple Leaf club. 1 Tt All Over North to See Leafs which had 2 the nation.

H.) The ‘‘Blues‘‘ and the "Whites" two teams of Maple Leaf players, have visâ€" ited the district and continued on their way, leaving with hockey fans the right to say "I saw the Maple Leafs." Some may even say "I met the Maple Leafs," or "I spoke to one of ‘the team"â€"such lucky individuals as Gordon Paul, at the Porcupine General Hospital, who received a visit from Apps, Drillon and Chamberlain; students cf Schumacher schools who also were by the famous visitors, and those at the Timâ€" mins High and Voca‘tional School. The Maple Leafs gave three exhibiâ€" tion games at the McIntyre Arena, on Thur:day and Friday evenings and Saturday afternoon, ‘before they enâ€" trained to continue their tour of the Northland. The "Whites" won the first two games 8â€"2, and 7â€"4, respectively, and on Saturday were defeated by one point, the "Blues" taking.the honcurs, Driving to the arena on Friday evenâ€" ing, after their success on Thursday evening, the "Whites" lustily joined in singinz, ‘"Roll Out the Barrel, We‘ve Got ‘The Blues‘ on the run," and they kept the "Blues" on the run through all the izames. Younz Billy Taylor, the youngest member of the aggregation, has made a hit with local and Kirkland IL#ke fans. He not only is popular with the male hockey enthusiasts, but has also won favour with the "ladies in the audience." One of those ladies called The Advance office on Friday morning, and inquired about the colour of Billy‘s eyes. At the time the answer was not forthcoming, this reporter having only seen Billy on the ice at the arena. Put the matter was soon remedied, and since the lady has not called again for Many of the fans at the games would demand more action, especially fans who were in no condition to demand anything. Excitement ruled over the arena on a few occasions when the players joined in a "scrimmage" but their go>daâ€" natured grins gave away the show, and the fans were disappointed to find that they hadn‘t been treated to a real "freeâ€"forâ€"alli." Visitors Did Many Kindly Acts During Stay in Camn On Friday the Maple Leafs ere entertained at a luncheon at the Badâ€" minton Club, and a dinner party at the McIntyre community hall following the game. Officials of the McIn‘tyre Mines addressed the gathering, and formally welcomed the team to the district. hunters gathered at ‘the dressinzâ€"room doors before and after the games, and the piayers goodâ€" naturedly signed as many autozraphs as time permitted. One little lad, after receivinz the autograph of his hero, promptly ran back to his father, exâ€" claiming "Oh, daddy, do you think I could learn to write like that? Maybe then I could be like him." The last thought apparently pleased him so much that he wonderingly sighed The Maple Leafs come from every part of Canada, and as Bill Rothe of The Glicbe and Mail proudly declares are "A Leagure of Nations in themâ€" selves." This Globe and Mail repreâ€" sentative, who travels with the Maple Leafs, is very enthusiastic about the team, and doesn‘t hesitate to tell his listeners and his readers the fact.
