BOWLING aocacr WRESTLING

ON THE

SVIDELINIAES

HAT THIS SEASONS junior hockey league is under the guidance T of a capable executive was clearly demonstrated last evening when the first meeting of the new slate of officers took place at the

Old Spain Tea Rooms. with President W. R. Aitken in the chair. Uppermcot in the minds oi,tl10se present was the thought that stress be laid on the success of the league and developing of young players. with this in view every motion coming before the meeting was discussed from every angle-before being passed and when finally written into

the minutes were throughout the entire length of the

nducive to assuring close, keen competition

schedule. Much necessary work was

gone over and only a few minor details are left to be completed before

the league gets underway on Christmas Night, I I I I I

ONIGI-IT WAS ORIGINALLY intended as the. date for the opener but the ice had already been rented previous to the first meeting; Friday night- next was suggested but with the stores remaining

open it was felt that it was in the best interests to defer the date until Dec. 25th. A committee was appointed to draw up the by-laws and league schedule, they to presentsame at a meeting called for Monday

evening next. No efforts are being

spared to put the league over with

a "bang" and everything possible will be done to ensure the youngsters

receiving recognition long since due .‘ I

_ I I 5 ‘THE FIRST step towards this cause a "Junior Hockey _ Booster Club" has been or- ganized; membership tickets are to be printed and the executive has‘ been divided up into five teams and shortly will call/arbor: all hockey-minded citizens to join the club. Besides raising funds neces- sary for the teams to buy equip- meat, defray registration expenses, etc, this step should act as an in- centive for those purchasing tick- ets and who have previously never witnessed the Juniors in action, t0 take in a game. "The result will mean increased attendance and in- tercst. the real aim or the league, and at the same time prove a big aid in helping the players surpass previous performances. 0 I I ND THE TEAMS are going to have something worth while fighting for besides just the honor - of winning the league championship. President W. R. Aitken showed how solidly he was behind the league when he an- nounced donation of a beautiful challenge trophy to the champions of the loop. The meeting voiced lPDreciation of Mr. Aitken’; gen- erous act and it lsvcertainly m be commended. Young players in par- ticular in any branch of sport will fight all the harder and better if their efforts are to be rewarded with something tangible and do- nation oi the cup will prove of in- calculable value to the success of the coming games, I I

LAYOFFS WAS a question that came in for a lot of discus- sion, it being finally decided

that all three teams be eligible for the playoffs with the winner of the league drawing a bye and then meeting the winner of the second and third place playoffs for the league championship. The de- cision will keep up the ulorale of a team if they should happen to fall behind in the regular sched- ule of games through loss of play- ers through sickness or inability to take part in games. I I I

LSO IT SHOULD help the league itself as it very often proves the case that when a

team falls far behind and realize they are out of the running they very often drop out of the picture altogether. If this should happen and leave but two teams to com- pete then the loop itself would quickly drop through and probably ruin any further attempt to put junior hockey on as large a scale as it should be. I I I

HE CITY HOCKEY league ex- ecutive are reminded oi to- night's meeting at the Holy

mime Club at 1.30. Several ‘mat- ters have cropped up in the last few days that require instant rec- tification if the loop is to meet with any success at all and all teams are requested to have a rep- resentative on hand. I I I

HE NEW GLASGOW Chronicle has the following and speaks for itself: Under pressure

"DaddymBubar has yielded to the deferred invitation and is now

willing lo go to Berlin as a mem-

them. I I

A public subscription is being

taken up to enable ‘him to go.

. "Daddy" was always one to be

admired. Through his willing-

ness to look a rubber disc flying in

his dircctionstraight in the eye

and turn it aside, he at the same

time turned many a game into victory.

E WAS ENTITLED by all scores of the game to be a first choice in the selection. with

the Moncton Hawks and the Hali- fax Wolverines he went through the championship series. No other goalie had a like record and in addition he carried himself like a real man through it all. Why he should have been denied his prop- er place as first choice in a Can- adian team can only ascribed to the underhand inside manipu- lation that is not creditable to the sport, . I I I

AR. BE 1T FROM us to suggest that he should be denied a trip to Germany. but our ap-

illwlfltlon of the young man is such that we cannot enthuse over his being handed a belated invita- tion superinduced by threat of publicity. "Daddy” earned better consideration than that. He has not received his just dues from the directing heads of the C.A.H.A, or some of his quondam friends. -

Bob Davidson To Replace plnjured,‘ Kelly

TORONTO, Dec. 16. — Conny Smythe decided today his Toronto Maple Leafs needed some "pepper- ing up." To give the team this new vigor, the peppery manager has brought Bob Davidson up from the Syracuse Stars to play with the Leafs in their National Hockey Lea- gue game with Maroons in Mon- treal tomorrow night,

Davidson has been going well with the Leaf farm team in the In- ternational League and will replace “Pep" Kelly who is still suffering from a shoulder injury received in practice. Smythe considers David- son will work in well with Art Jack- son and “Red" Metz on the Toron- io third line.

Ted Turner Forges Ahead In Golf Play

i CORAL CABLES, Flat, Dec. 16,- Young Ted Turner smacked them straight down the middle of the Miami Blltmcre Golf Course to forge ahead 1n the 810.000 open to- day by shattering with a. 06 for the par '11 layout the tournament record Willie MacFarlanc set in 1933.

The 27-year-old Pine Valley, NJ., professionals performance, two‘ strokes better ‘than the 68 which gave him the lead on opening day, made his b4-hole total 209.

In second place at 211 were Hor- ton Smith, Oak Park, 111-, yester- day's leader who added 72 today, and the veteran Frank Walsh, Chl- cago campaigner” whose good 69 was added to the 142 with which he finished yesterday. .

Second to Turner in supplying the day's drama, however, was none other than the same MacFarlane, the old timer from Tuckaboe, N.Y.. who won the 1933 event. ~

MacFarlane toured the first nine today in 31, four under par, chip- ping in thrice for birdies. His back nine, however, ‘was only par, giving him 07 for the day, 213 for the 54

1935 No Respecter 0f Champions

By ELMER DULMAGE Canadian Press Staff Writer (Copyright, 1935, by The Canadian Press)

Like most years, 1935 was no re- spcctor of champions in sport. The year in which Max Baer lost his heavyweght title, Fred Perry was beaten at tennis and Jim Londos was dethroned as wrestling cham- pion by Dan 0'Mahony, was no more kind to Canadian champions, team or individual.

The turnover from 1934 started early when new hockey champions were crowned all along the pro- feslonal and amateur line, and it f-lnizhed late when the mighty Win- nipegs and Fritz Hanson invaded the coast and took away Canadian football honors for ‘the first time.

The gridiron spectacle was far and away the most surprising and the most disastrous to champions. Sarnia Imperhfs, 1934 champions, went on a. pre-season tour of the west and learned early the west was primed to do business on a strictly champTmsllip basis at least. They absorbed a 3-1 defeat from Winnipégs to close out an other- wise successful tour.

But they went back home with Normie Perry, Alex Hayes, Boob Molloy and Mike Clawson injured. and it developed that replacements couldn't b:- found for these stars. Imperials vrcnt down and out'in the eastern final to Hamilton's fighting Tigers by a score of 22-3. Then it became Hamilton's turn.

The fdlowing week, playing be- fore a home crowd in the inter-sec- tional final, Tigers took an 18-12 beating from Winnipegs and east-, ern Canada's long reign in grid- iron affairs was ended.

Hockey's 1934 champions, Detroit R/ed wings and Chicago Black Hawks, were tumbled by Canadian opposition. Toronto Maple Leafs won the National League title, de- feating Boston Bruins in the finals and Montreal Maroons trounced the Leafs three straight in the Stanlcy Cup final.

Charlie Conacher, however, re- mained the N.1-I.L.’s greatest scor- er and other top-hoteliers like Frank Boucher of New York Ran- gers, Harvey Jackson of Toronto and Eddie Shore of Boston held their foremost ranking.

The new amateur hockey cham- ‘pions were Halifax Wolverines. retracing Moncion Hawks as Allen Cup winners, and Winnipeg's Jun- ior Monarchs. st. Michaers Col- lege of Toronto, which turned out one of the best all-time‘ junior teams in 1934, couldn't do it again and went down early in the Mem- orial cup race that Winnipeg won.

Bill Christie of Toronto lost his sprint crown and women's speed laurels passed from Audrey Desm- iey of Hamilton Ailsen Meagher of Halifax. Wa'ter Martin replaced

Close Fight For Scoring HonorsWaged

(GP. By Guardian's Special W!!!) MONTREAL, Dec. iii-A younger player and a veteran of New York Rangers supplied the feature to the National Hockey League ‘scoring during the past week as Rangers won two games and got into the thick of the fight for the United States sectional lead, two points behind Detroit Rod Wings. ’ Glen Brydson, filling in for the ailing Bill Cook on right wing. scored seven points, four of them in one game against M l Ma- roons, for the best gain of any player of the week. Right at his heels was Frankie Boucher, play- maklng centre. with six points.

Their spurt brought them close to the top which remained sole pos- sessicn of Paul Thompson, Chicago Black Hawk wingrnan, whose eight goals, six assists, 14 points, were a single point better than his show- ing a week ago.

Second in the league and top of the Canadian division was big Charlie Conacher of Toronto Maple Leafs who did not score a point in Leafs’ two losing games of the week but his six goals, six assists were one point better than the five play- ers crowded into third place.

They were Doc Romnes, Chicago, Boucher and Brydson of the United States section, and Nick Metz, and Harvey Jackson of Toronto. Metz accumulated three points during the week.

Young Meta still led the whole League in actual goals with nine, one more than Thompson.

Red Horner of Toronto had little competition for the ‘bad man" leadership. His 50 minutes in the penalty box was well ahead of the 32 total for Allan Shields of Mon- treal Maroons. Marty Burke of Chicago topped the United States section with If minutes.

Toronto Leafs And Maroons Clash Tonight

(By The Canadian Press) (By Guardian's Special Wire) Highlight of tonight's three-game National Hockey League card is the

ireal where both need a win if they

- be tougher for Red Wings than for

battle between Toronto Maple Leafs and the skidding Maroon: at Mon-

are to keep ahead of the rapidly climbing New York Americans who are idle.

Maroons can hop over the second- place Americans info a tie with To- ronto for leadership of the League's Canadian ‘ provided they run their winning streak over the Leafs to five-straight. Toronto has not won a game from Maroons since the start of the Stanley Cup finals last Spring. Maroons are in third place two points behind Leafs and one behind Americans.

Standings in the American section may be changed in the other two games scheduled Detroit invades Boston on the crest of a powerful winning streak while Canadians journey to New York for a meeting with Rangers, who are in the thick of the fight for leadership of the American section.

Rangers appear to. have a good chance of going into a deadlock with Detroit for leadership by win- ning against the weakened Canad- iens. Detroit's achievement in beat- ing Toronto and Rangers on succes- sive nights over the week -end makes them formidable for the Bruins even in Boston but it will

CHICAGO, Dec. 18. - A scratch hit, banged out somewhere along the line last summer, was worth $500 and the 1935 batting championshl, of theAmerican Baseball League to Charles “Buddy" Myer, smooth fielding ’ - baseman with Washington Senators.

It was the margin by which Myer today was oifiicslly proclaimed the champion with an average of .349. With that honor goes a prize of $500, awarded for the first tiine by the American League.

In a furious stretch drive, Myer nosed out Joe Vosmik of Cleveland by one point with Jimmy Fbxx, then with the Athletics, but now with Boston, third. (lily three percent- age points separated them, the of- ficial averages revealed.

Vosmik, who apparently had the honors clinched two days before thJ finish of the season, made only two hits in his final 11 trips to the plate, while Myer, in a. batting rampage, knocked out 10 in 15 times at bat.

Vosmik, who made the most hits,

also connected with the most dou- bles, 47, and the most triples, 20. ~ Big Hank Greenberg, slugging first baseman of the world's cham- pion Tigers, who made 46 doubles, tied with Born: for home run honors with 36.
