The last chapter in this year's local football story was written yesterday when the school series for the MacMiilan Trophy was dc- clared finished after Queen Squar- the dcfendingrchamplons had won the only game played,

This year was the first time the series was resumed since that time ten years ago.

Queen Square won the only game played by a 31-0 score and that one was contested in a driving rain. storm.

Possibility of fans wit ' their first hockey match of the season next week was seen last night when 1t was made known that a move is underfoot to have Navy and Saints clash in an ex- hibition encounter either Tuesday or Thursday night.

Both teams are getting in wac- tice sessions as often as possible and should be ready to turn in a good brand of hockey. The game would also provide fans with some inkling as to just what brand o! hockey will be played during the coming City League campaign. Saints are said to be stronger than last year and should the Navy squad be able to give them a battle then matters should point to another closely-knit league as prospects for both Prince of Wales and Legion are much bright- er now than they were a couple of weeks ago.

Rumors that the Pony Line of Wallie Shepherd, Allie Carver and Cec. Dowling may be performing here in the near future still con- tinue on the rounds although tne writer hasn't heard anything def- inite on the matter. At present they are with Northside Victoria: in the Cape Breton Hockey Lea- gue; the axe has been falling sharply in that camp of late and -whether the three youngsters es- cape it or not remains to be seen. If they- don't they will certainly add a lot of strength to the Leg- icn's chances and put an altogeth- er diffcxcnt outlook on the squads chances.

And then there is always to be considered the appearance of Gor- die Drillon. Drilion has stated several times he will confine his activities to coaching but mayhap the lure of competition will prove too strong for the elf-National League's scoring leader.

One thing is certain the big fellow, despite some evidence of being unpopular with the fans did a lot of good for the players he had under his’ care last winter. He wasn't by any chance trying to hog the spotlight in any ap- pearance but rather was trying to teach the boys the finer points of the game. That he succeeded was evidenced by the form im- provement of the players and his appearance on an attacking unit again this winter would be wel- comed by a great number of fans.

The swivel-hipped centre ice star of the Hawks, enjoying by for his best season since breaking into senior ranks added further to his leadership the other night when he slammed in four count- ers and picked up an assist in a game against the Saint John Beav- ers. That was sharp shooting of the highest order and it is likely that before long other clubs, per- haps far remowd from tho scene of Big Pour games will be angling for his services.

Loaded with courage. a fast skater and a player who particu- larly this year is going both ways Buck has been drawing plenty of praise wherever he has perforated since the league opening. Also he still has youth on his side and should make the grade to higher ranks if an opportunity presents

Yul They're ‘factory-fresh’ c i ix 100% power-full when you buy

TORONTO, Nov. 25 - (GP) ._ 1t tnay be partly due to the per- suasive tones of coach Jack West but Winnipeg Blue Bombers, af- ter easierners had a chance to look them over, were rated to- night as the strongest threat 0o come out of the west in several years in search of the Grey Cup.

The Bombers showed their wares in ihcir second light workout at. Hamilton this aftcrnoon for the Dominion football final in Toronto Saturday, The concensus of some 100 raiihirds was that this compo- tcnt looking squad might fight as well against Toronto Argonauts as their soft-spoken mentor talked.

Though likely io shift somewhat, tcniaiivc odds sci the Bombers as not worse than 2-1 underdogs to

inpplv ihc two-time Dominion champions in the sudden-death final. '

The 90-minute drill left most observers agreeing with West that this team looked bigger and sharp- er than either 0,! the last two Bomber editions. which Argos toppled 35-0 and 28-6, for the title. Practising in the mud at the Ham- ilton Athletic Association grounds. yvhcre they'll hold daily workouts until Friday, they concentrated mostly on forward pass defence.

Obviously trying to develop coach West's stop-Copeland-and- Krol strategy, the Bombers re- cruiicd three members of Hamil- ton's Wildcats to help out on pass dcfence. Thr- irio—coach Frank Gnup and Gorci and Mel Lawson. the Wildcats forward-passing brother act - will work with Bombers again tcmorrow.
