NURMI DENIES RUMORS THAT HE WILL TURN PRO New York, Dec. 17.--Paavo Nurmi, famous Finnish runner, ar- rived Saturday on the Rochambeau for his second visit to America, dis- pelling immediately the mystery about his intentions by flatly as- serting he had mot turned profes- sional, and did not intend to do so. Nurmi"s broken English consist- ed cHiefly of one word: *"Nope," but it was sufficient to answer de- finitely the first questions flung at him by reporters eager to learn about reports that Nurmi was about to turn "pro," and race under the banner of Tex Rickard. With this one word Paavo also declined the impromptu reception arranged by the French Line at the pier. A group of Finnish friends, in- cluding Hugo Quist, who managed Paavo's 1925 tour of the United States, greeted the runner. Maple Leafs Win From Boston 2-0 -- With Hitchman absent through injuries and Frederickson nursing a lame ankle, the Boston Bruins did not give their customary rough- and-ready hockey display at Arena Gardens Saturday night and the Maple Leafs were not extended to any great degree in handing them a 2-to-0 shutout, The Bruins were docile, for the most part, Eddie Shore, their dashing defense play- er ,proyiding the only fireworks for his team with his brilliant rushes on the Toronto net, But even the aggressiveness of Shore could not stem the tide of defeat, though the Bruins were more outlucked than outplayed at times, With the exception of Bailey and Blair, the Leafs. did not perform on the attack with the brilliance they have displayed on other occasions here, There was a tendency on their part to hold back for the "break" and they favored defensive hockey more than in thejr usual custom, Lorne Chabot gave a pleasing exhibition of goal-tending and made many spectacular stops, He playea cau- tious! yand protected his net cap- ably on all occasions, The Boston forward line gave him plenty of work, but failed to take advant- age of some neat passes when close to the goalmouth, When they did get 'in for a close-up drive, Chabot's pads were always in the way. : 2 All Tie Game Played at Buffalo Buffalo, Dec, 17.--James ("Rus- ty") Hughes, who learned the tricks of hockey in Halleybury, Ont., though being a native of Webbwood, duplicated his feat of a week ago on Saturday night and scored for Buffalo to prevent de- feat by Toronto in a Canadian League hockey game in the Peace Bridge Arena 'at Fort Erie. Hughes's tally, made from left wing on a pass from behind the Toronto net by Ruth, centre, tied the count at 2-all--the ultimate score of the game after the cus- tomary overtime of ten minutes, A week ago it was Hughes who, without aid from other members of the team, worked his way through the entire London defense and netted the winning counter for the Bisons in a 2-1 game. His score last night culminated an evening of great effort, for Hughes played a sparkling game, both on attack and defense, The tie game with Toronto kept clean the Bisons' record of the past few weeks, for, after losing six traight, they won three suc- cessive games, The visiting Millionaires took an early lead when Rice pounded home the puck with one minute to go .in the first period. The score came on a scramble at the net. Buffalo tossed away many chances in the second period, when indiv- idual play supplanted team work. Bogardis tied the count thirty sec- ons after the beginning of the third period, taking a short pass from Brydson in front of the goal. Later Toronto went into the lead when Gauthier took Rice's pass at left wing and drove a high shot A ------------ / | | i dale Canoe Club of Toronto. | ROY PENDREL { Former Ontario Champion Speed Skater, who will be here Wed- | nesday night to compete in the meet at the Curling Rink.

The center positions were filled by Park formerly of Toronto, and Joyce of last year's team, Others who were noticeable during the practise was Crossett, Houck, Chartrand, Morse and Little, With the material that turned out plus some conditioning there is not a doubt in the world that Oshawa will be well represented in the Intermediate O.H.A, league. No Score Game by Montreal Teams Montreal, Dec, 17.--Canadiens and Maroons, local National Hoe- key League rivals, played through soventy minutes of close-checking hockey to a goalless draw at the Forum Saturday night, Close to thirteen thousand fans witnessed the contest, the second between the two teams this season. Cana- diens won the first game by a 3 to 1 count, It was an evenly-fought battle practically throughout, Each goval- keeper stopped 37 shots, but such was the defensive hockey shown by the twb teams, that the ma- jority of the drives on goal were from outside the defensive areas. Both teams, however, had their scoring chances, but the few times that really dangerous gttacks sift- ed through either rear-guard. Hainsworth or Benedict, was al- ways on the job. These two veter- ans, who of late have shown wa2ak- ness in handling long shots, made no mistakes last night, and all long-distance attacks directed their way were ably handled HOCKEY GOSSIP The scores of hockey games played {new building is ready. week-end. were as fol- {mated to cost nearly $2,500,000 and the B.B.C. hope to enter into +sssss.

University of Toronto interes mediates will be their opponents. The Willowdale team is a strong one, Among the players signed are Johnny and "Shrimp" McPherson, Marty Nugent, Underwood, Claude Harris, Holmshaw, Fred Barnett, Collins, for mer Peterboro senior, George Beal and Shannon. There will be a meeting of O.H.A, referees at the Prince George Hotel on Wednesday at 2.30 p.m. The rules will be discussed and questions cone cerning the interpretations but upon some of them will be answered, The performance up at the Curling Rink on Wednesday should draw a large crowd and also excite some interest in the skating enthusiasts of the city, ] Many, if not all of those competing, will be veterans at the game 50 .there is not much chance that there's even one poor race. This Barrel Jumping event alone will be well worth going up to the Bond St. Ice Palace. 8 The most popular girl skater, Lela Brooks Potter, also will be there. Manager Sammy Lowe should be one happy man this a.m. He had twenty-three puck chasers out to the first practice of his Intermediate team on Saturday. Over threc teams to pick from. Every one was just as eager to get going as Sammy was to see how he performed. Next Saturday will give us an idea of how smart this Willowdale team really is, Not that we under rate them but the team that is talked about most does not always win the most games.

The wolves are numerous in the timbered country where dogs can not well fol- low them by sight alone. Dr. George V. Harcourt, Conservative, M.L.A., Powassan, suggests the importation of hounds to combat the wolf menace in the Parry Sound District, and in this connection he was in Toronto this week discussing the matter with officials of the Department of Game and Fisheries, Parliament Buildings. Dr. Harcourt says the wolves are more numerous in his distriet this year than ever before, and have be- come so bold lately as to come right out in the open and invade the outs skirts of Powassan. Brush wolves, he states, are the chief offenders, ale though the timber variety is often seen near the town. He realizes that the ordinary wolf hound, which chases by sight, would not be of much use in the wooded districts of the north, so he is trying to locate a breed of hound which would fol. low the wolves by scent. Charles M. Schwab, the steel mule timillionaire, says money isn't much, He must have good neighbors, == Woodstock Sentinel-Review, | Martin ing' of masonry than upon profu- sion of detail.
