By W. R. WHEATLEY_

MONIREML. July ill-Without any formal contrast or the flour- ish of slinatures. Hanks Seiko today quietly took over the sen- ersl mansgership of the -Montrea.i Forum and the Oimadien Hockey Club of the National Hockey Lea-

ue.

Simply on the basis of a friend- ly mutual understanding sruiver- bal agreement with Senator Don- at Raymond, president of the Can- adian Arena Company. the for- mer mibliclty director for Maple loaf Gardens in Toronto succeeds Tommy German. long a spectac-

a decade holder of the dual pos- ition in the two organizations op- erated by the Arena Company.

German's resignation was an- nounced by him s week ago 1n Ottawa, where he will operate the Ottawa Auditorium as president and general manager.

Seated in his new office. Selke dressed in a plain gray suit. chat- ted. geniaily between incessan telephone calls from well-wishers.

"Senator Raymond asked i! wished to sign a contract-for a y-ear. two. three. five" said Selke. “I told him no contract is neces- sary, that his word is good with me. I will newer leave him in a hole. and 1i’ at any time he finds he has no use for me then 1 will gladly step aside."

At the some time Seiko let it be known he has asked Senator Raymond he be allowed a young French-Canadian assistant whoin time would be sblo to take over the Job.

Selke ioooks forward with bless- ure to a reunion with his old Dick Irving. Canadians coac . who last May signed a two- year contract. Selke was closely associated with Irvin in Toronto for a nine-year stretch when !r- vin coached the Maple 1M1!-

lrvin. said Seiko. will have full charge oi running the Canadlene hockey team. Selke will handle contracts or may be consulted by Irvin on matters of policy. but there will be no front-office inter- ference with the H. L- Chim-

Jupiter Pluvius must have a grudge against Montague race fans as he is seldom on his best behaviour when they hold their meetings. Light showers fell on Wednesday for over an hour but the majority of spectators refused to budge and were finally reward- ed for their perseverance when the sky cleared up and the bal- ance crf the card was raced off under ideal conditions. -l' O

An excellent day's racing was the expressed opinion of many of the spectators who saw the five class program completed in a little over four hours des ite some delays caused by bro en wheels and a pulled shoe. It was a good day for those who play the favorites as they came through in every class, Lucky Number scoring the only upset when he won the last heat ‘of the day in the 2.28 Trot and Pace after a clever drive by Willard Kelly.

With nothing promising in the way of matches against British fighters. U. S. promoters have swung to France for the next in- ternational boxing match, and the much discussed Marcel Cer- dan is to get a shot at the middle- weight crown according to Bill Westwick in the Ottawa Journal. Westwick claims the United States promoters sent over Holman Wil- liams, the veteran Detroit Negro star to test the French fighter. Willi-ems isn't any middleweight champion and never will be. but he's been a good. steady and clever enough fighter through the years and a great friend of heavyweight champion Joe Louis. He is the type they figured might find out whether Cerdan is all they say he is, and Williams wasn't equal to the task of beating him in Paris last week-end.

Oerden won s decision. absorbed punishment, but came boring back at the Detroit mittman to score enough points for a victory. Now it seems certain that the French star will get a crack at the \Vil'\' ner of the forthcoming clash be- tween cha ion Tony _Zale and the rugged cky Grazlano. Cer- dan aroused quite a bit of‘ com- ment a few years ago by winning the service middleweight champ-

ionships ln Algiers. Fighting for the Free French Navy, he knock- ed over one onnopent after an- other and the cables carried some fine verbal bouquets for him.
