Thebaud, groin Gloucester to Halifax. The distance between the two famous fishing ports is approximat- "ely 375" miles, Captain Angug did not divulge the amount offered as a prize, but indicated it would be large enough to 'keep the two schooners away from the fishing banks to compete. The race would be sailed while Bluenose and Thebaud, the latter skippered by the veteran, Captain Ben Pine, are en route to Halifax 'to sail an expected two-out-of-three contest in Ca n waters, The start would probably be made about 24 hours after the ooners completed «their current series off Gloucester, Thebaud won the opening race Thursday, by a wide margin, but Bluenose has improved greatly since then, taking the lead at one time in today's uncompleted contest. Captain Angus sald it was because of that improvement that a group of Toronto men had come forward with the offer of a prize for an ocean Tale. Art. Duncan Will Coach Toronto Leafs . "Poronto, Oct. 14.-~Art Duncan, one of the most 'popular players who ever played for the Maple 'Leafs, was yesterday signed to coach the team during the coming N.H.L. campaign. Manager Conny Smythe made the apnouncement Tast night. Duncan has been with the To- ronto club for the past three sea~-] sons.

Forbidden by a recent major lea- gue ruling to send players to the Reading club, as well as accept tos- sers from the Keys, the Chicago Cubs, owners of the Reading fran- chise, have been left holding the bag.. Tehy are faced-with the prob- lem of how to operate a baseball farm which will produce no stars. Officials of the Cubs are debat- ing right now whether or not they will continue to hold the Reading franchise in the International Lea. gue. If the Cubs forfeit the fran. chise, another "angel" will have to be uncovered or Reading won't have International League baseball next season. Roy Brothers To Build Up Team Again London, Oct. 13--Several of last scason's London Panthers will be among the missing when the local pro hockey squad reports for trains ing here a week from Wednesday, Manager Roy Brothers announced yesterday. while making: his first pre- campaign visit to the arena, Brothers stated that only seven of last year's club have been ordered to come back, and one of these was not a regular in the last race. The players, who will return are: Norfolk, last season's sub goalie, who is to start in the nets this time; Holway, Loughlin, Rice, Briden, Groh and Brydson, Reineikka, who was bought not Jong ago, will 'also report with this bunch, Goalie Joe Ironstone will probably come along later unless he is sold or traded in the meantime. Pete Palangio has not been ordered to report, During the next few days Brothers expects to have definite word on sev cral deals that are calculated to se- cure the rest of the experienced players he needs to round out the Panthers' roster--a roster - that is certain to be much slimmer thin that of last. year. The Panther pilot may carry 12 players for a while, but he really only is looking for 11%f the right kind this time, and doesn't in- tend to waste much time on try-outs or experiments. The on gamble he intends.to take is on young Norfolk at the pet-minding iob. With NHL. Clubs A deal with an N.H.L. club for an experieniced defence player, the out- right purchase of Len Grosvenor from Ottawa Senators, and the ac- quisition of the players he wants) from Les Canadiens, are some of the business dickers that the local man- ager hopes to know definitely about this week.

Rowden needs no in- troduction to any Oshawa sport fan who has lived in this city for any length of time during the last few years. A member of an athletic family, "Dqec." broke into the sport limelight, very early, away back in his public school days. He was the pride of Centre St. school for many and then later drew the ap- of the Collegiate Students for our seasons. He confines his activ- ities y entirely to the ma- jor 'sports, baseball (and softball) rugby and hockey, and he stars at all recreations. He is considered 'by many as Oshawa's best athlete. He has played, at one time oe) Snother practically every game" on the sport pi mts lacrosse being one of the "Doc's." is and recognized all over On. tario, He has been made tempting hockey offers to turn Pro. by more than one N.H.L. team, including the Toronto Leafs. He has also been made attractive offers by persons de- siring his services on the gridiron. Not yet twenty-two years of age, he possesses a fine physique, weighing 174 pounds and has a height of § feet, 8 inches. "Doc." plays on the backfield for the Blue Devils, where ke has played and starred ever since the team was organized. .He is con- sidered one of the best broken-field runners developed in the east. A fine line plunger and a good tackler, he is one of the most valuable players on the team. When needed, he can as- sume the kicking duties and do & very creditable job. On Saturday, against St. Catharines, "Doc." was one of the few members of the team who really made a good showing. "Doc." is one of the main reasons why the "Blue Devils" can never be considered "out of the picture" until they are actually eliminated. CLARENCE DE MAR WINS PORT CHESTER MARATHON RACE Port Chester, N.Y., Oct. 14,-- Clarence De Mar, veteran marathon runner now living in Keene, N.H., yesterday, won the sixth annual 26-mile jaunt from Columbus Circle, New York City, to Port Chester. He yaced the distance in 2 hours 46 minutes 13 seconds.. Percy Wyer, Canadian veteran from the Menarch A.C., Toronto, finished second in 2.51.30. Arthur J. Gavrin of New Rochelle, N.Y., winner in 1928, was third _in 2.54.14. Another veteran and former winner, Albert (Whitney) Michel. son ol Port Chester, finirhed in fourth place, His time as 2,568.18. Fifth place went to Edwin White of Staten Island, who finished in 3.01.02, A field of 65 started the grind. exceptions. prowess L 8 pple-cart which the local Blue Devils have been greasing up for the ensuing season. And Porky states, in no boastful vein, that the series isn't over yet and that he will show the Oshawans a thing next Saturday in St. Kitts, SE---- Whether Porky, who seems to be| the self appointed ruler of the St. Kitts squad, has a few more play- ers under his helt and is raving them for the return engagement is not known, but we are glad to say that the local lads have learned their lesson and won't take the game quite so lightly next week. Bobby Jones says that years ago he learned that no.putt was too short to miss, and no doubt that that is why this gentleman occupies the position in which we now find m, We think that it is time that the game is too soft to lose and that good teams have been known to lose to alleged weak teams before this day, Surely last year's error in under- estimating the Sarnia Wanderers should be lesson enough in this re- spect, and we want to see the Blue Devils redeem themselves with a Smashing win over this same team next week. Tackling was the glaring weak- ness in the game on Saturday, and no doubt Dr. Walker will sge that this department is smartened up immediately. Outside of about four or five members of the team, tack- ling seemed absolutely foreign to the rest and time and again the St, Kitts' halves made our boys look as if they were engaged in a violent game of squat tag or some other rough recreation, Kohen as usual, proved himself the hardest hitting tackler in the gang. He was only used for a few minutes in the game but the three men he hit while out there nearly had to call for the water bottle. Not a bad record, ---- Ne \ Asked why he was tackling Cald- well, Queen's pivot man, so violent- ly in the game last week, Kohen said that it was always a business pricipal with him to get the quart- erback as often as possible even though certain ethics had to be dis- regarded. An ------ And he took another load of junk away. Hubbel's punting and Rowden's spectacular running paved the way to victory on Saturday. Wanless and Gummow also had a finger in the victory ple and pulled out a few plums of about 15 yard dimen. sions, All in all, it wag a first season game and the fans weren't feeling awfully badly over it. We won and that is something. From all reports even the senior games were just g bit of a wath-out. Anyway let's blame it on the weather, Whew, it was sure more like {deal baseball: weather than football cli- mate. The gang came off all red and sweaty, and Ned Boultbee claims {that he actually got tanned out { there. He darn near got more than _ | that by the look of his map. Mayor Mitchell showed all and andry that he hasn't forgotten the { way to lay the old boot on the pig- skin. He certainly hoofed it a dandy and all we hope, 1s that the season will she as successful as its seud off, by his worship, Mr. Mit- chell, As usual, the opening proceed- ings were very impressive. After all there is nothing like a football op- ening which will make that old tightening go up your back when 'you see all the boys at attention and hear the band play the king. Many of our old friends were on hand to see us get away to6 a good start. Among them there was Jack Beaton, George Hezzelwood, Jack Gowan, Ross MacKinnon and a host of other men who were some of our most ardent supporters in past campaigns, It has been ' rumoured that loomy Hezzelwood has rounded up another stellar backfield player in the person of Joe McIntyre. It is learned from reliable sources that Joe used to play a mean game of rugby while attending college®and be arrival will be welcomed gener- ally, * Harold, "Shorty" Millichamp, is ty whom we expect to see out at the work-outs one of these nights. It was regrettéd generally when business kept him away from prac- tices but npw he feels that he 'can devote al his spare hours at the tall game. - It will be recalled that Shorty used to play a splendid game at outside and also could be called upon to take his place on the half | line, He will make a valuable ad- dition to any football team: 8 80 I am going, to take manager: "But have you ing to do tons and Cireus manager "Yes, quite' : Wite of rr vith : Blue Devils learned that no. another player of recognized abili-|- rr -------- net Wite of lion tamer: "My husband in "411 ) his} be child's play for me--you ought to 1 can tame Bm, : RUSS WILBUR Above is Russ Wilbur, one of the hard-working Vice-Presidents of the General Motors' Rugby Football club.

Gus. Sonnenberg Defeats Meyers Bout in London London, Ont., Oct. 14.---About 800 London fans of the mat attend- ing the first appearance here of Gus Sonnenberg, the world's champion, failed to see him try the hold that has made his name a household word in the wrestling game, the fly- ing tackle, but they ha® the unique experience of seeing the champion refuse to continue, take a seven- minute rest, and then continue the bout to win, after providing the faithful with as much action as any mat enthusiast could wish to have for his money in one night. Gus had met Doc Meyers before at Hamilton and won in two straight falls, as he did at the Arena last night. He proved what he had done before, that he is too strong and possesses too much endurance for the Chicagoan, but, the slim wrestler from the Middle West made a go of it all through and at the end of the first 125 minutes had the champion in such a way with a series of head throws that he refused to continue. Referee A. T. Taylor held up Meyers's hand and the fans thought they had seen the champion lose a fall, After some argument, however, between Promoter Michailoff, Son- nenberg and the referee, it was agreed that ten seconds should have been counted before giving a fall to Meyers, and seven minutes after Gus had walked from the ring td his dressing-room the bout resumed Referee Taylor explained that he be- lieved he was technically within his rights on the score that he had twice asked Sonnenberg to resume without getting any answer. | Glamorous Alluring In a story of love.

Mondays in the scheduled season are general- ly off night, but Coach Buck Mc- Kenna did not hold any holiday yes- terday, having every man in uniform for a long drill. All survived the test with Montreal in good condition with only minor complaints. The practice last night was fea- tured by the return of Firpo.Brown, husky middle 'wing veteran, who should greatly strengthen the Scul- lers. Brown, although over-weight hastled through the long drill last night and hopes to be ready for ac- tion against the Bengals. Thompson, the promising half-back from Guelph who was injured early in the sea- son; was back in harness last night and should find a place on the squad. J. R. Ardiel Jr. Breaks World's Sea Flea Record Middletown, Conn., Oct. 14.--In addition to breaking a world's out~ board record, James R: Ardlel Jr., 16-year-old Toronto motor-boat racer, yesterday was crowned Unit- ed States national champion in class "F", Divisions 1 and 2, at the natiofhl outboard races concluded here this afternoon. The young speedster travelled over the five- mile course in the first heat of the race at a speed of 45.80 miles per hour, breaking the existing record of 45.45 miles per hour. By attain- ing dn average speed of 45.23 miles an hour for the two five-mile heats, he became titleholder. He came within less than one mile of the highest speed ever made by an'out- board' motor boat in competition. Ardiel broke the record set only last Saturday here in the Eastern division races by John D, Masterton of Peterson, N.J. Masferton's mark was 45.45 miles an hour, and Ardlel bettered it by less than a half mile. Tonight the youthful racer was one of twelve racers to be given'a trophy emblematic of the world's championships in 'their classes at a dinner and dance for the 200 con- testants and numerdus officials and guests, He won his spurs on the last day of the most colorful outboard regat- ta ever held, offigjals said in com- plimenting him, Myrs.

Hamilton, Oct., 14.--~With the in- stallation of ice in the local Arena by Oct. 20, hockey for the coming season is a live topie. The Hamilton Hockey Club, which was so successful last year when 'its senior team got as far as the semi-finals against 'the Montreal AAA. Allan Cup champions, has decided to enter three teams this year in the O.H.A. senior, intermed- fate 'and junior series, ; All of last year's senior players are available with the exception of Neville, now with the Montreal A. A.A., and Oliver, in Sussex, N.B, Several men of senior calibre have been residents of this city since last spring and prospects are exceed- ingly bright for a good tear, It was thought that with so many good hockey players of real ability in this city real representative teams that would go a long way could be formed for the intermedi ate and junior series, Boarding House = Proprietress: "Cook, 1 shall have tp give you notice.
