...!..eadership of the Cit League is It stake tonight when avy clashes with the fast-skating Saint Dun- lion's University team in \vhat should be another of the fast, ac- tion-filled games that have feutured league games to date. \

,0 III It III

Saints, winners of their only start ‘this season and that against the league leading Legionnaires, sur- prised all and sundry by that vic- tory for it \vas felt that the Uni- versity boys, short of practice and not in their best condition would ‘_not be able l0 match the speed that would be thrown against them. How far the fans were wrong is well known.

III III IIP III

With the benefit of that gaine under their belts and with addit- ional practice sessions thrown in Coach Jackie Kane will ice a squad tonight that will be right at their imiik and the "Tzirs" will just have to he at their best if they are illililif lo hurdle thc barrier that the Saints will throw up against

thcm. III III II" III There is a tendency among the

fans to sell the Navy team ii bit short due no doubt to the lacing thcy took against P. C. last

Thursday night. Well, it might be‘ a good policy not. to sell them too‘ short. Every team, no matter bow good it may be is bound to have an "off night" and in this writer's opinion Navs; "have had it."

III 4' III

The "Pars" are a much stronger team than they looked against P. W. C.—at that had they cashed in on their scorSng chances they would have made it a much closer slruggle—and if they are back at their rca] for tonight Saints too can cxpcct a tough battle of it all the may. Thc “Queen Charlotte" boys play the game for all that is tn it and Saints will have to fight hard for every goal they get.

According to Bill Reid who was present at the game Queen Square and Montague High waged quite a hockey tussle at Montague Satur- day night in an exhibition game between the two school teams be- fore the City scholars came out on the long end of a 4-2 score.

Ii III III Il-

Thc game was closely fought all the way through with both teams putting on a real good display of hockey our informant tells us, and al indications point to some

reat ice duels before the Island nterscholastic title is decided.

III If + III

The City series between West Kent and Queen Square should be a natural. Judging by the perfor-

the exhibition games in which they have partaken, they look to be a- bout on a par. Both squads are fast, pass the puck around in deft fashion and have displayed keen .,marksmanship when in scoring po- sllion. Both have capable goalies, hard hitting defences when the occasion arises and are well stock- ed with three sets of forward lines that skate both ways all the time. III III III III

But irregardless of what the outcome of the coming series may he it is indeed pleasing to see the old rivalry between the two schools renewed after a much too long period. Back quite a few years ago sport seasons would not be complete without a Q.S.S.-\Vest Kent series. Then for some reason or other clashes between them came to an abrupt halt.

III It I) III

That the fans missed them ls certain for many a time inquiries would be made as to why a series, whether it be football, hockey or baseball was not being played. Gradually as the years started to add on inquiries ceased and 1t was taken for granted that they were a thing of the past.

III vi III Il-

Nothing was attempted. evidently to resume the clashes. until this season Physical Director Reid got working on the matter. That he was successful in his efforts is now wcll known and now that the hor- koy series has been resumed it is to bc hopcil that it. will become an annual feature and that baseball and the old MacMiilan Trophy foot- imll series, the latter an event that drew the fans in large numbers every fall, will be added to the interscholastic program, a program that us for as hockey is concerned is this lVllllUl‘ embracing the en- ilifi Island.

Q E l! Louis Free With Money,

Promoter Jacobs Says

By GAYLE TALBOT

NEW YORK, Jan. 81 —(AP)- The great mystery of what hap- pened to all the money Joe Louis ibas made in the prize ring is no mystery at all, insists promoter Mike Jacobs, who should know- Joe simply spent the dough.

"I've seen some pretty fast men with a dollar in my time," Mike remfnlsced today, ‘but there's the champ. What he doesn't manage to spend he gives away. For a man who doesn't even di-txik. he's a wonder.

The topic arose, as it. frequent.- 1y has lately, over the fact that Louis, whose fists have beaten out total camings of nearly $2,400,000 in tihe last 10 yeaws is forced at tihis stage to roam the provinces with a. dance band to pick up a little ready cash.

“There's a lot you don't know about that fellow." Jacobs grin- ned. "In the first place, of course. he hasn't. actually made as much money as you think Bv the time his purses were out up he made les than $1,000,000 for himself. and Uncle Sam took a big slice of that. He still owes the govern- ment about $79,000. I think.

“But what he did get his hands on he spent Joe knows how to have a 300d time. He's the great.- est guy for picking up a check I evu saw, and. he's a sucker for a touch. He hands it: out $500. $1.000 at a. clip. And he has to pay taxes on his touches.

“Know how much ho spent the three years he was in the army. one hundred grand-that I know

Although Mike did not enlarge. the inference seemed plain that Louis had tapped the Jacobs till for that amount. If true, then it takes only casual figuring to show that at; least $179,000 will come right off the top of Joe's purse when he fights Billy Conn in June. That: is, after the income taxers fhave taken first whack.

BY BIN PIILEGAR.

ST. LOUls, Jan. 31 -(AP) _ Fisherman 8am Brandon of St. Louis Cardinals hasn't had a nib- b_ie on his high-prices bait since Lew York Giants forked over S175.- 000 for catcher Walker Cooper two weeks ago.

" ll this talk of the $1,000,000 or so worth of players I'm going to sell before the season o in has scared everybody away,’ ho re- flected today.

His roster showed 5 flingers ex- pected to be available for the 1946 season, with at least 1S proved mlior leaiu.) winners.

What about the report: from New York that owner Horace Stoncman of the Giants was praro tising writing "$100,000" on black cheques in an attempt to line up a first-rate pitching staff.

"I wouldn't know about that.” Breadon replied, “but I'll) repeat that I haven't had a bite."

At the time of the Cooper deal it was understood Stoneman was trying to trade $500K) for a good Cardinal lefthonder. He said yes- terday be would be interested in Max Lanior or Harry Brecheen. two of the eight Iportsiders on the Cardinal roster, and might talk business with Brendon during the National League schedule meetings next month.
