D. M. Tod told the meeting that the outdoor pictures of the C.N.R, and the C.P.R. would be procur- able, and that they should get their application in for the films at once, The holding of an organization meeting was discussed, and a let- ter from Gregory Clark, the sees retary of the Toronto Anglers' As- sociation was read, giving sugges- tions for their first organization meeting. He suggested a feature speaker, and some fishing pictures, The meeting may endeavor to ob- tain Gregory Clark, himself as the speaker for the evening. George Robertshaw said that they could get the full co-operation of the Toronto Anglers' Association in forming their club, and that the sooner they got under way the better, as "fishing time will soon be here." He read, on request, the bylaws and constitution of the To- ronto club. it was thought that the mem- bership should be unlimited and everyone at all interested in the angling art be solicited for mem- bership in the club. Many places were suggested for their orgamiza- tion meeting but no decision was reached regarding it. An entertain- ment committee was suggested but will be left over to the next meet- ing.

The two judges and the referee were not unanimous in favor of the local boy, but Johnston received the call from two of them. In the other two Canadian-American bouts, both six rounders, the margins of Tommy Mitchell, of this city, over Eddie Speaks, of Louisville, and of Clovis Durand ,of Montreal, over Spider Ryan, of Auburn, were so great that they could hardly have been greater unless the winners had stopped their opponents by knock- outs, Jackie Johnston's supporters were somewhat disappointed when he did not live up to expectations that were based on his excellent record in Detroit this season and last night he did not seem to have improved much since he last show. ed here, some fourteen months ago, True, he was up against a super- latively clever boxer, but the local lad did not make the expected use of his advantage in weight, height and reach, He allowed Genaro to take the track at the start and for eight rounds he let the flyweight champion determine the style of fight, In the last two he opened up somewhat and made more fre- quent use of his right, which used to be his best weapon, and he staggered Genaro a couple of times, Toronto, GRAIN-SEEDING IN MANITOBA MAY BE GENERAL NEXT WEEK Winnipeg, March 30. -- Seeding may be fairly general in Manitoba next week, Hon.

The arrival of Merwin Jacobson, former Baltimore outfield star and until the middle of last season one of Uncle Robby's rabble at Brooklyn, today completes Boss O'Hara's squad.

"Jake" Not Signed "Jake" hasn't signed as yet buf he knows what he is to get in the way of remuneration and it is considered that to all intents and purposes he is as good as on the pay roll. He held out a quite a while, longer than it was expected he would in view of the fact that the Toronto club declared some time back that the last word had been said and that he could neither play or stay at home. Like many veterans Jacobson is not enamored of the Spring training grind and it is assumed that it was on this account more than anything else that he played out the string to the limit.
