Those-Held at St. Moritz Federation Internationale of | Bobsleighing and Tobog- " ganing is Sponsor of The Proposal -- Games at St. Moritz Will Take Place Next February. i ad es There is considerable possibuay that Canada will be the scene of the next Olympic winter sports--ifollow- ing those to be held at St. Moritz n February next, and the Federa- tion Internationale of Bobsleighing and Tobogganing is sponsor of the proposal, The A.A.U, of C. quite recently became a member of the Federation.

In fact, the officers of the Federation are very anxious that our Dominion be represented, as the IPederation fs desirous of securing detailed information as to the mun- ner in which tohogganing is con- ducted here, as to implements, type of races, stations and courses, with the end in view of adding this fea- ture to the sports supervised by the Internationale, which is representa- tive of fourteen affiliated nations. Officers of the Federation have expressed themselves as being -par- ticularly happy to see Canada be- come affiliated, as they put it, "be- cause you are masters from the point of view of winter sports." They are hopeful that in connection with the Olympie games when held in America the winter sports will take place in Canadg,. .in which would be included world's champion- ships in bobsleighipg, "skeleton," "luge," Canadian tobogganing and skiing, There is no national organization { in the Dominion, on the roster oJ the A.A.U, of C. governing the gports being supervised by the In- ternational Federation, though there are a great many people interested and actively engaged, and the mat- ter will be discussed at the forth- coming meeting of the AAU. wu C, In the meantime President Me- Vicar is very desirious. that clubs interested should communicate with Dr. A. 8. Lamb secretary of the AAU. of C., Mec- Gill University, Montreal, in order that the Union may have all avail- able information at its disposal. CALGARY TIGERS HAVE WITHDRAWN FROM THE PRAIRIE PRO LEAGUE Oct. 19---Frank Calder, president and commis- hockey, to Toronto, of Montreal, tion Hockey League sioner of professional give him his full titles, was in the | city yesterday on his way back from | the meeting of the N.H.L, governors in Detroit on Monday and the presi- dent was very enthusisatic over the prospects for the coming season, He stated that there was nothing for publication regarding Monday's meeting in addition to the reports sent ouj from Detroit and when questioned as to the disciplinary actions taken in conneetion with the occurrences at the final game of the world's series at Ottawa last Spring between Boston and Ottawa and the unsuccessful move to have the sus- pensions of Hooley Smith and Bill Coutu reduced, refused to discuss the matter beyond stating that as far as he was concerned the matter twas closed and that fitting penal- ties for their offences had been handed out to the offenders. He was net nearly so backward in speaking of the approaching sea- son, which opens four weeks from yesterday, or of the new rink in Detroit, which he states is the lat- est in every respect in.arenas, does not suffer in any respect in comparison with Madison Square Garden and in some ways there are improvements on New York's big arena, ' President (Calder expects the 1927-28 season to be the best ever in 'the history of the National League and every club, with the pos- sible exception of Pittsburg, will be stronger, than last year. - The Pi- rates have been handicapped by the delay in settling the estate of the former owner and the management has been unable to do anything to- wards strengthening the team, but Odie Cleghorn has several deals in the way which he hopes to close once he is able to talk business, Focr New Managers. Jack Adams, of Detroit, who with Shorty Green, of the Americans, Barney Stamley, of Chicago, and Conny Smythe, of Toronto, is mak. | ing his first managerial start in big time hockey, has rebuilt the Detroit team and it looks as if "Jawn" will have a contender all the way. Chi- cago intends to injeet mew blood to a certain extent and is looking for a satisfactory outcome from the operation. The Americans are strengthening several of the weak spots that were apparent when the pressure was strongest towards the close of jast season amd it is ex. p jo Wi of the Na- | It | RUGBY RESULTS RUGRY STANDINGS Standings of teams on the thie senior Rugby Unions are as follows: Intercollegiate Won Lost For Ag't.

From what can be gathered quite a number of the girls in the city are taking kindly towards a ladies' basketball league, but so far nobody has taken the initiative and called a meeting t o discuss the proposition, There is no doubt but that the league would go over strongly once it got started. There are four gymnasiums in the city at present and indications are that three of these would be available. that could be possibly secured are t The fourth is doubtful. The three he Collegiate, St. Andrew's and the Y.M.C.A. The Armories, it is understood, is used practically every even- ing and it would therefore be rather hard for the military people to give their evenings over to other organizations. They haye a regular program to follow out and if an evening was taken, the schedule would be hinder- ed. A meeting of the dish | O.H.A. junior team wil likely take ayers 'wishing to try out for places on the local place at the Y.M.C/A. Friday night when plans for the coming season will be discussed. This is, however, not definite, and an announcement will be made tomorrow to the effect. A number of the lads have been out .out- of their muscles and getting into the squad will likely hit the trail ne main pastime. with "Coxie" Cox getting the kinks shape generally. The remainder of xt week and road work will be the The local trainer thinks a lot of road work as a condi- tioner and he is sure to have quite a following.

The veterans are passing out of the pfeture and the ranks must be filled by younger nlayers. A proposal was made to the meeting that boys 21 years of age and under be admitted to mem- bership in the Ontario Curling As- sociation without payment of the annual fee.

PROTEST ONLY TALK Kingston, Ont., Oct. 19. -- Queen's rugby team never once contemplated a protest on the game of Saturday' in Montreal, because of the fact that they were mot notified when there were only three minutes to play. Sec- retary J. S. McDonnell, of the Athletic Board of Control, stated today that the report that Queen's would protest was ridiculous, for the Tricolor never had any such intention. Naturally at the time the msitake occurred the at- tention of the head linesman, "Red" Dixon, was drawn to the matter and there was considerable discussion re- garding his work, but the idea of pro- testing formally to the union was ney- er entertained.

"Stories in New York newspapers to the effect there is friction in Madison Square Garden Corporation, and that I contemplate resigning, are not true," his wire read. "I am still one of the largest stockholders and look forward to a prolonged pericad of prosperity for the Garden," Junior Sochey In City Will Hold Initial Workout In| Another Week -- Harry Lecky Likely to Coach Team Again -- Went Into Third Round of Semi Finals Last Year. Prospects better than ever before are facing Oshawa's Junior Ontario Hockey Association's team and in- dications, if pre-season gossip means anything, are better than ever be- fore. With less than one week to pass before the initial workout, fans are evincing considerable interest as to the personnel of the squad. While a meeting will be held shortly to organize the managemeny and players, predictions are the same gentlemen, Harry Lecky, "Ab- bie" Corrin and '"'Coxie" Cox, and Harold Luke will hold sway in exe- cutive positions and guide the des- tiny of the team. last year a suc- cessful season was enjoyed and for a time it looked as though the team would bring a championship back to Oshawa, but St, Michael's of Toronto took away all hopes when they low- ered local colors in the third round. However ,another chance is com- ing and the team that steps on the ice this winter will be an alto- gether stronger one than that whieh met defeat at the hands of St, Mi- dhael's, A number of new and experienced players are in town and eligibile under the residence rule to play for Oshawa. Their certificates were passed at an early session of the O.H.A., and apart from several which were held up pending settle- ment with the N.O.H.A. little trou- ble will be experienced this year in regard to players, Included among the lads to have arrived here since last winter is Sam Levine, sterling ret guardian of the South Porcu- pine intermediates and formerly of the Timmins juniors. Then there is Bill Arundle, a forward who shoots from the left: side and who hails from Timmins. Both Levine's and Arundle's certificates are pending, but these will likely be issued in a few weeks' time, That this year's team might true- ly be called a combination of the Shamrocks of last year and the Deseronto sextette is evident in that there will be two anyway from the Deseronto practieally sure of stezuy places, These are Leo Buryea, left VILLE JR* SHIELD i Prospects xceeding Bright forward. Both these. lads*have a "rep" a yard long and they are sure to make the home boys step for re- gular berths. Then there is "Chuch" Davidson, of Toronto, who is a forward of no mean abilny. Another outsider who will be wel- comed this year when the boys take to the ice is Gerald Rowden, well known as a player in Port Hope. Rowden is a forward and shoots from the right side. Fred Gerster, of Lindsay, is also in the city and will try out for a forward position. The aforémentioned players to- gether with last year's should round cut a fairly formidable team, Avau- able this year of the old standbys will be the two goalies, Eddie Le- veque and Doug. MacNally, Eddie Harrington and "Tie" Little will be available again for riglit defence and sub right wing, respectively. The old left and right wingers, Ar- tie Black and "Dec" Rowden will still be at home before loeal crowds. Herb Spanton will also be available for relief duty. Preliminary roadwork will star) Monday, October 17, from the Y.M, C.A., it is expected and later the team will go to Toronto to work out on artificial ice.
