Hoop Series Opens Tonight

' The opening of what promises to be the “hottest" basketball series in Island history taxes place tonight at the Holy Name Club when 1-ii-Y Grads. defending their City title take on a strong challenging squad. the Navy, in the first game of a best out of three series to decide this year's titlists and possession of the Kelly and Mclnnis Trophy.

All season games between to- night's competing teams have caus- ed plenty of interest and without fail the two squads have displayed a close. hard brand of the hoop game. Twice games were won in tht last few seconds of play and pres- ent indications point to a A _.etition of these bitter battles. '

Grads and Navy both came through their semi-final series with two straight victories to come down to the finals at the peak of their game. Every available man on both lineups is ready to start.

Navy, repulsed four years in their bid for the title are confident of repulsina their smart opponents while the Grads, expecting all kinds of stout opposition nevertheless are confident of retaining their cham- pionshlp.

Abbie Sisters and Bluedots clash in a girl's playoff game that pre- cedes the boys' encounter. The ladies’ league this year has also been very close with the four teams left in the running all having an even chance of copping the honors.

Of Players

(By Elmer Dulmage Canadian PICS! Staff Writer)

TORONTO. April 14-England's source of hockey player supply was cut off temporarily today when the Canadian Amateur Hockey As- sociation banned the migration of Canadian players to England until a “satisisctory" agreement with the governing body oversees was reached.

There were, however, no echoes of charges made by President E. A. Gilroy several weeks ago that "amateur hockey as conducted in England is a racket." In the clos- ing minutes of the annual C. A. H. A. convention. delegates ap- proved a resolution seeking a new working agreement with the Brit- ish Ice Hockey Association.

More than 20 Canadian; who moved to England last fall to play hockey. without first obtaining C. A. H. A. permission, will remain under suspension and no further transfers will be granted until the British Association agrees to hon- or whatever new agreement is de- cided upon.

Registrar W. A. Hewitt of Tor- onto. George S. Dudley of Mid- iand. Ont., Prof. W. G. Hardy of Edmonton and the newly elected C. A. H. A. president, Cecil Dun- can of Ottawa, will form a com- mittee to seek a new agreement with British hockey authorities. Meanwhile, touring Canadian teanu are barred from playing English teams on which any of the suspended players play.

The convention found the sit- uation regarding players leaving to play in the United States much more satisfactory, approving a draft agreement with the U. 3. Amateur Hockey Association. U. S. teams next year may import only one player from any one Canadian learn and not more than four Canadians next season.

NEW YORK. April l4—F‘or 15 fleeting minutes. minutes that must have thrilled him far more than the mightiest home run he ever crashed over the distant ramparts, Babe Ruth was base- bali's idol and hero today.

An then, as the tumult and the shouting for his name died awed’ and the game went on, he lapsed once more into that tragic role that no one thought he ever would have to play.

once more, probably feeling 19 mom than ever before, he was baseball‘: forgotten man.

It was a strange, cruel contrast of entrance and exit for the great hero of yesterday who came to I season's cpener as a spectltor 10!’ the first time in 32 years. Yet he took it well. He signed autographs for all c:mers. He posed willingly —ond smiled his best.
