Toronto Star Sports Editor Dies Suddenly

(C P. B! Guardian's Special Wire)

TORONTO. March 4—L0u E. Mtirah, sports editor and column- ist of the Toronto Daily Sim". who lived his life on the inner rim of the sports wheel, died suddenly here today. l-Ie was the most wide- ly known of Canadian sports writ- ers. achieving an international reputation as n hockey and boxing referee.

For many years he attended ma- jor sports events throughout Can- ada», the United States and Europe for the Star and wrote of them in inimitable fashion. He used crisp, broken sentences to dramatize sit- uations in the ring, on the track and the water.

Marsh worked on the Star since he was 11 years old. starting as n. delivery boy. His formal education, he used to say, “didn't count." He learned the language of boxers and other athletes as a boy and his facile use of picturesque phrase- ology made “With Pick and Shovel," his daily column, something apart.

The last Marsh column appeared in the Star six days ago. The white-haired sports editor collapsed In a downtown cnfe last Thursday and was rushed home. A heart ail- ment which had caused him to give "up all strenuous activity in recent years became acute. I

Death was unexpected, however. Mai-sh planned to leave in a few days for Bermuda to rest. Friends Wilo visited him said he appeared tired and far from B's rugged self. He was 57 years old.

The spike on the sports editor's desk held no sketch of Marshs life. When his death was announced a. few minutes before the final dead- line. a shocked editorial department was only able to rush a two-column cut on the front page with the bare nnnouncment.

To the last he was a defender of amateur sport, although he knew as well as the Amateur Athletic Union oi Canada's most rabid cirt- ies that hundreds of athletes ac- ccpiod money for competing under the A. A. U. banner. The last sent- ence of his last "With Pick and - Shovel" column read: .

"There are still 1o times as many clean amateur teams in the On- tario Hockey Association as there are teams which are smirched with the tar brush of professionalism!"

While Marsh was one of the Na- tional Hockey League's most capa-

I .. ble referees for years. he was Just ‘ .. as happy watching or refeieeing a.

good junior game. He looked back on his own days as an amateur hockey official with many a. laugh and a few shudders.

Midget Rangers are today right back in the tnick o1‘ the fight for the Midget League title as they celebrate their brilliant 1-0 victory over Canadieus scored at the Forum last night in the second game of the final series,’ a game that saw the youngsters reach new hockey heights of effectiveness and. ail- round ability. Played before a good crowd the two squads battled through two periods and a half of scoreless ockey that saw brilliant goal ten ng. smooth combination wor-k and rugged defensive, but le- gal work.

Halfway through the third ses- sion the break came and it was the dangerous and smooth-skating George McLeod that broke through to count the only goal of the struggle. 'l‘a.king a pass from Blac- quiere at the line McLeod skated in to drive the wafer behind the Can- udien goalie who made a game but fruitless effort to save. It was the only score the teams could muster although the Canadians scored early in the second period but the play was blown down with a blueline attacking player inside the crease.

Right at the start of the first period Steele and Roach raced in on a sweet combination play but Simmonds in the Ranger net saved. During the session there was a. lot of close calls for both net Janitors, with Perry and McLeod coming within inches of scoring in the final minutes of the period.

A McLeod to Blacqulere play in the first half minute of the middle frame was halted cold by McAlecr who saved brilliantly. Keeping strict watch on their checks both teams failed to leave any scoring chances for the balance of the period. Can- adiens did score once but the play had been blown down with n. player inside the crease.

For the first ten minutes of the final period scoring chances were at a premium but when one finally presented itself it was the Rangers who capitalized, McLeod picking up Blacquieres pass at the line to beat the Canadlen goalie. For the bal- ance of time Canadians pressed savagely and determinedly but they could not beat the game little Ran- ger goalie. although in the closing minutes Wilson was right in on top of him only to have his drive block- ed. Rangers missed a great chance of increasing their lead also. but McAleer robbed McLeod from in- side the crease.

The lineups:

Rangers - Goal, simmonds; de- fence, Jay, Murray. Mstheson; for- wards, Perry. McLeod, Blacquiere, Whitlock, Mclilnnon, Doyle.

Canadlens - Goal, McAleer; dc- fence, Wilson and MacDonald; 5°!‘- wards. Steele. Roach, Coyle, Rich- ards. Burke. V. Roach.

SYDNEY, N. 8., March 4—Th€ Cape Breton Colliery League will be the one to watch in 1836 base- ball wars unless T. L. MacDonald and the Maritime Provinces branch of the Amateur Athletic Union step in and halt. a Klondike trail of players from all parts of the Maritime Provinces and New Elig- land to Canada's far east.

Enthusiastic miners. the most rabid of all baseball fans 1n these parts, predict the best days of the game since the old Cape BNWH professional league was an insti- tution.

They are right if names» places appearing on their prospective mean a thinB-

Sydney, for instance, is all ready to sign three members of Yar- mouth Gateways, 1935 Miaritirne champions. three players from Boston, at least two from other points in mainland Nova Scotia. and one from New Brunswick. Authoritative sources have con- nected Purney Fuller. the ace schoolboy southpaw of the Marl- Limes, with the Sydney nine, in addition to Edgar Amirault Yar- mouth fielder. Binks 0'l'.ieary who camehere from Saint John ‘last year will play BUSIIOTIS$OP again. An American coach is now on his way here.

TORONTO. March 4—Ken' Wat- 8011‘! Winnipeg Btrathconas of Manitoba and a. New Brunswick foursome skipped by R. K. (Red) Shives from Campbcllton took the lcadk ‘tgnght at the two-thirds mar ., e ion champion- ship , Mlodonal§$ Brier curling bonspie.

Manitoba won it; fifth victory in six starts tonight, defeating Nova scotiu 14-9 while New Brunswick upset Ontario 11-9. It was the second defeat for Ontario, shoving Hec Cowaws Samians into a sec- ond place tie with British Colum- bia. Alberta and Saskatchewan.

In other night matches. Bask- atchewan defeated British Colum- bia 10-9 as skip Les Youngson made a great draw with his last shot: Quebec handed Prince Ed- ward Island a sixth consecutive de- feat. 16-13. and Alberta turned aside Ncgthem Ontario 9-8 on an extra on .

With three rounds of play billed for tomorrow. six of the 10 starters will start the final day with a chance to finish on top-Manitoba, New Brunswick. British Columbia, Ontario. Alberta and saskntchewan. The others have no chance.

Scoring their third straight wins today. New Brunswick and Mani- toba were pressed hard all the way. Watson's Winnipeg rink led 6-5 over Murray Macneillls Nova Sco- tiB-Ils after seven ends. The big break occurred on the eighth.

Nova Scotia was lying one shot when Watson sent his last stone on its way. The shot circled a front guard, took out the Nova Scotia stone and left four Manitoba stones. Had the shot been a. little harder and knocked the Macneill stone out of the house entirely, Manitoba would have counted six.

Cowan's Sarnia rink curled sup-

-. crbly against New Brunswick. hold-

ing a 7-5 lead after eight ends. Then the Campbellton quartet be- came deadly, setting up perfect guards to protect early shots nnd counted four on the ninth. The Maritimers played safe on the last three ends to. finish two up.

Distinctly the hard-luck rink of the bonspiel. Emmett Smith's Nor- thern Ontario entry from Hailey- bury dropped its second straight ex- tra-end game. Each time the score, was 9-8. Across the necemary shot 1n the afternoon round and Alberta duplicated the feat tonight.

Each without ti. victory when they started. Quebec and Prince Ed- ward Island staged a high-scoring battle. The Maritime rink scored six on the first three ends and Que- bec squared matters by getting six on the next three.

AFTERNOON PLAY

Most oi the afternoon winners finished with safe mlrilm 0108B‘ Ontario's entry which ran info the first extra-end match of the bon- spiel before turning back Northern Ontario 9-6. -

This feature match. which meant one rink would drop out of a tie with the leaders. also produced the first dead end. It came in the 11th when skip Hec Cowan of the Sar- nia rink took out the lone Northern rock with his last shot and went out‘ himself. leaving the circle bare.

British Columbia came right back after the morning defeat to win 11-7 from Nova Bcotia. The East- emers made a good bid for their first win. MlllTBy Macneill and his Halifax curlers were down only two after eight ends, counting a three in that end, but Birtish Columbia ran out the match with a two-end- er and two singles in four ends while Nova Scotia could add only two in the 11th.

G. Wanless’ Albertans from Ed- monton made an impressive come- back in the afternoon against Saskatchewan after absorbing a 17- 4 drubbing at the hands of "Red" Shives‘ New Brunswick rink in the morning round.

Grads Take Navy Into Camp 29-28

In the molt thrilling basketball game, staged on a local court in the Past decade Bi-Y Grads last night defeated the Navy 29-28 to go into a tie for first place in the league standing. Played at the Holy Name Club before a wildly oxclfod crowd of fans the teams staged a desper- aio battle during both halves with nothing to choose between them.

The lead was continually chang- ing and with Lhme second left to play 1t was 28-all with a. tie game 100ml"! up large. But here Borden Cox assumed the hero role. Fouled just as he was attempting to get s, shot away the Grad forward rustled the first flee throw through the

0nd failed as the timers whistle was sounding; it was the Grads victory even if it was by the narrowat of margins.

The game lived up lo all expec- tations every minute the foam: were in action. In the first five minutes oI- play Grads led 3-0 and at the halfway mark of the period still had a slight margin. Here the

fore the half had ended had taken over command and were leading 16 to 14.

But if the opening session had furnished thrills at a dime a dozen, the second half was a million dol- lar show. Continuing where they left off Navy increased their lead slightly during the first five min- utcs bur. the Grade were beginning to force hard. With five minutes left to play they had the lead 26-27 but a foul shot by Hal evened matters up. For over four minutss and a half, then the rival

point wns garnered but overimxious- ness by a Navy- player led to Cox getting two foul shots and pulling off the Merriwell finish.
