Varsity in defeat, fell before one of the best senior teams to show on the Arena ice for many seasons, a club which possessed all the pow- er of a championship force. From goal' to the third alternate the Montreal Saints were strong, every position being well filled with will- ing, capable workers, who all hag. speed, individual ability, while they combined with precision both on their offensive and defensive play. The East is well represented by the St. Francois Xavier club, a team that is a credit to the territory over which they reign as champions,' from Port Arthur to maritimes. From out of intermediate ranks St. Francois Xavier have advanced to the pinnacle of the amateur hockey world and they have proved their undoubted right to the honor, first beating Montreal Vics, last year's finalists, then making a sweep of the far Hast and completing their conquest by downing Varsity last night.

Rugby Dance * Date Changed The whole hearted spirit charac- teristic ob all Blue Devil activties was again apparent last night when the members met at the official '"diggins," Ye Torwin Place to re- port on the week's work in connec- tion with their softball team and the social evening. The meeting had been called for Thursday night but was unable to be held then, but in spite of the change a large ma- jority of the executives were pres- ent, The first important business that took place was the change of the date of the champions At Home, which, after much discussion, was slated to be held on Friday, April 12 instead of Aprii § as previously stated.

Trails Victory Thrown Out Winnipeg, Mar. 28.--One of the greatest sensations ever caused in western hockey circles occurred here early yesterday morning when Canadian Amateur Hockey associa~ tion ' authorities announced that Thursday night's semi-final Allan cup match between Trail and Port Arthur which the former won 6 to 1, had been declared 'no game," due to the participation of an ine eligible player. With this sensational turn of events, it was announced by Fred Marples, secretary of the C.A.H.A., that the western finalists of the senior hockey series would be de- cided in a 'sudden death" match here tonight between the Snrioke Eaters and the Ports. Anderson Ineligible Howard Anderson, snappy de- fenceman of the Trail Smoke Eate ers, was the played declared to be ineligible. It was disclosed that despite a warning, he played in Thursday's game without a regis- tration card. Anderson, 1928 cap- tain of the Smoke Eaters, had not played hockey during the regular schedule, but was pressed into ser- vice on short notice to participate in the Trail-High River series when two other players of the British Columbia championship sextet had been declared ineligible for Allan cup competition, Finals Drawing Nearer Daily Toronto, Mar. 23.--St. Francois Xavier, of Montreal, will represent Eastern Canada in the Allan Cup games at Winnipeg and Winnipeg Elmwood Millionaires will carry the standard of western Canada in the junior finals at Toronto.

There are some five or six hundred hockey teams throughout Canada who start out in quest of the Allan Cup or the O.H.A. In the month of March they reach the play-offs and the season opens. Junior Memorial Cup when games are played under the direction of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association from coast to coast. These two series undoubtedly attract more attention than any other sport in Canada and the winners can be truthfully acclaimed National Champions, Play-offs are held from Halifax to Vancouver, the winning teams of each group gradually proceeding west, and the winners of the western groups gradually going east. By the time Winnipeg is reached all but two teams have been eliminated, one from the east and one from the west, and the team which comes out victorious is beyond a doubt the best in Canada and probably the best in the world. Future stars of the professional Canada may be seen at their best in these games. It is from these amateur teams that the big leagues draw their talent. In the past week the eliminations have picked out a team from the East and one from the West who will play for the Senior Championship of Canada at Winnipeg. In Toronto the Juniors will contest for the 0. H. A. Memorial Cup. Tickets for these popular games will be as hard to get as a pass to the N.H.L. play-offs. (] .

McLARNIN-MILLER BOUT TAME AFFAIR Madison Square Gardens, New Yor., Mar. 23. -- (By Edward J. Neil A. P. Sports Writer) -- Two vaunted ' lightweight punchers, Jimmy McLarnin, the Celt from Vancouver, and Ray Miller, blonde left-hook artist from Chicago, met in what should have been a furous combat last night, and turned in a battle as tame and featureless as their first meeting was piooay and spectacular. « Where there might have been smashing punching, furious rallies, knockdowns and finally a knock- out such as McLarnin suffered in their first engagement in Detroit there was nothing but clinches, the champions pointed out in a convincing manner the advan es of changing the date and holding the affair on the 12th in place of the 5th | as was previously arranged.
