PAGE EIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1930 NIAGARA FALLS PLAY "BLUE DEVILS" AT STADIUM TOMORROW Niagara Falls Play Here Tomorrow -- "Blue Devils" Must Win Niagara Falls Will Be Streng- thened by the Addition of Several Port Colborne Players -- Admission to Game Tomorrow Is 35c-- Kick-off at 3 p.m. 'omorrow afternoon, at the hour Phy gi at the Motor City Stadium, King St. West, the Osh- awa General Motors' Blue Devils will meet the Niagara Falls' "'Cat- aracters," in a scheduled group fix- ture. What. was expected to be a rather easy engagement now bids fair to be a real struggle and the rugby fans of Oshawa are beginning to sit up and take notice. In their first three starts, the Niagara Falls team failed to make a very impres- sive showing, in fact, they were defeated without scoring a point, on .all three occassions. However, last Saturday, the 'Cataracts' en- tertained the tough St. Catharine's team and St. Kitts barely emmerged with a victory, by a 3 to 2 margin It is very apparent that' Niagara Falls have mended their ways. St. Kitts. gave the 'Blue Devils" two hard battles, the one in the Car- den City, being especially interest- ing and if Niagara Falls can keep St. Kitts. from crossing their line, it shows that they have improved a great deal since they were defeat- ed by Galt to the tune of 60 to 0. Port Colborne Players Add Strength Niagara Falls will be strengthen- ed for tomorrow's game by the ad- dition of several very capable play- ers from their neighbouring town, Port Colborne. The 'Ports" have a good rugby team and their con- tribution to the Niagara Falls' line- up will be valuable. The "Blue Devils" will not, because they can not, be at full strength for'tomor- row's game. had quite a strenuous season to- date. They have played five games, to Retain Lead The Oshawa boys have | strength of any Intermediate team. This game also added to the in- jury lst. Then there was tlie floodligh session on Wednesday day night} with Balmy Beach, which was anything but a "pink tea'. The team is now weakened in practically every department. Bill Wanless, 1930 addition to the back- field, is still using the crutches and likely- to be for about another ten days. "Wink" Gummow will be missing from the lineup and in this the Blue Devils are minus the ser- vices of a good tackler, Claire El- liott is recovering from a broken nose and while he is available, Coach Dr. Walker would rather keep him out of the game for an- other week. Gord. Cook is both- ered with a bad ankle and knee but he may get back into the game tomorrow. Ed. Wilson came out of the game on Wednesday with a bad ankle but he will like play tomorrow. The Blue Devils have plenty of subs and several of them have been going great guns this season. Most of the members of the reserve list will swing into action tomorrow to take the place of those players who must, of nec- essity, watch the game from the sidelines, # Admission 85 Cents The admission for the game to- morrow afternoon has been set at thirty-five cents. This move was deemed advisable in view of the prevalent financial depression. The game should be a good one. The Blue Devils must win in order to re- tain their hold on the group leader- |ship as they are only one game |akead. Galt plays in St. Catharines morrow, with St. Catharines offic- fils being in charge of the game. | If Galt should win tomorrow and {Oshawa lose to Niagara Falls, the Blue Devils would then be tied {with Galt. The officials in charge {of the game here tomorrow after- noon, will be Referee, Gord. Brit- rell and Umpire, Alex Sinclair. The game is billed to start at {8.00 o'clock sharp and don't forget {the admission is only thirty-five two of hem against Senior teams. | First they met Queens and played a great game.

More than 2000 enthusi- astic fans cheered the Flying Frenchmen as they breezed through a snappy workout, their initial prac- tice of the year. Ag colorful as in past years, the Canucks showed that they had lost none of the speed that helped to take them through to the world's title last Spring. So brisk was the workout that Manager Cecil Hart decided to hold but one practice daily in the future, I'ear that his men appearing in mid-season form for their first workout, would be- come stale almost before the season started, prompted Manager Hart to make the move. Maroons, Cana- diens' intra-city rivals, will continue the two practices a day they started last week. Besides the old band of oMrenz, Jouat, Lepine, Leduc, Hamsworth, Caffery and Burke, several new- comers worked out with the team. Johnny Gagnon, Bud Cook, the two Giroux brothers, Palangio, Pusie and Lesieur were among the. re- cruits who showed particular prom- ise. SARNIA C. IL JRS. BEAT ST. THOMAS TO WIN THE ROUND Sarnia, Oct. 31.--The Sarnia Collegiate W.0.8.8.A, junior team defeated the St. Thomas Collegi- ate hero yesterday afternoon on the school campus by 17 to: 9, which gives the locals the round by the comfortable margin of 81 to 17 points. St. Thomas started the scoring when, on an exchange of kicks and advances, Frazer kicked into his scrimmage on his tive-yard line. The ball reboundede behind the goal line, where he re- covered it, but he was thrown for a safety touch. Balmy Beach Drill Hard After Night Game Toronto, Oct. 31--It's all a matter of viewpoint. After playing an O.R. senior league game Balmy Beach declines to hold a practice for a day. On Wednesday night the east enders played a night contest with Oshawa intermediates, who are us tough a lot as any team in the Beach ers' group, but they called it a prac- tice and were at it hammer and tongs at Broadview Y field again last night. Coach Ponton has his men drilling hard on extensions. He has develop- ed them in interferences on these plays and on Saturday in the game against Varsity Orfuns at the sta- dium, the east 'enders should play their best game of the' season. Last night there 'were enough players at the drill to form two squads and no- thing was spared by the defenders who tried to make themselves look like a team in earnest. en ------------------------ Never 'hurt dumb animals.

Baffert Toronto, Oct. 31.--Bibber Mec- Coy emecPged victorious over Al Batfert in the main match of the wrestling show at Massey Hall last night, taking the third and decid- ing fall of a whirlwind display. The bout was a cyclone of speed, with both grapplers bouncing about like tumblers to koep a capacity crowd thrilled almost every second. McCoy was only de- clared master over the Frenchman when he survived a furious ex- change and hoisted his rival high for a body slam. The program was good all through, the opener being a rough and tumble scrap that included everything both in and out of the wrestling rules, with Freddy Mey- ers gaining the decision over Bill Bath, while in the semi-final George Vassel pinned Stanley Pinto, Tom Draak, who was sup- posed to face Vassel in the semi- wind-up, did not appear, and the reason was not known last night, but the substitution did not in any way mar the show, McCoy was a trifle too big and heavy for Baffert, although it took a long time before his extra weight took 'its toll. Baffert was at his best flying through the air for leaping headlocks, and his sensa- tional speed forced McCoy to miss many of his best holds, A sure defence for the flying tackle was demonstrated by the shifty French- man when he leaped high in the air at every attempted dive, and McCoy crashed through under- neath him. Queens Given Real gamebyscrub team 31.--Back Kingston, Oct. into the thick of heavy scrimmage work with Coach Harry Batstone driv- ing the team hard every minute of the time, Queen's seniors yes- torday afternoon were given one of their hardest drills of the sea- son. A team composed of inter- mediates and players not eligible for intercollegiate competition, gave the seniors one of the hardest battles they have had this sea- son, and the players warmed up to the job so much that Coach Batstone called a halt to the pro- ceedings as dusk fell, apparently fearing the coming of the usual Thursday "Jinx" with its string of more or less serious injuries. Yesterday Coach Art Anglin of hte intermediates, mustered a squad which turned in a great battle against the first team. Frod- dy Warren, former Wektern star, and who teamed with Batstone four years ago on the Tricolor backfield, was playing on the halt line for the intermediates, along with Bill Teskey, former Mec- Gil back. At middle wing Anglin had "Spud" Murphy, who played With the Intermediates last year and Wes. Lackey, Toronto boy, who subbed for Stuart on the scn- for line last season. The rest of the team came from the intermediates.

Mara contends that he had an agree- ment with Tunney by which he was to receive ten per cent. of Tun- ney"s share in the championship fight if he would aid in arranging the match with Dempsey. He charges that, by a verbal contract, he was to receive 25 per cent of Tunney's earnings afder he became champion. To Entertain M.A.A.A. Toronto, Oct, 31.--Heavy drills ended in semior camps last night completing preparations for Satur- day's fixtures. Toronto teams went through long drills, final rehearsal of plays or tests that all have a bearing on the standings. Varsity Blues concluded their work for Me- Gill at Montreal: Argonauts put on the final touches for the most im- portant clash as far as Toronto is concerned with M.A.A.A. while Balmy Beach and the Orphans also completed training for their clash in the O.R.F.U, ' Taking the complete program in- to consideration the game between Montreal's Winged Wheelers and Argonauts in the Interprovincial stands out as the feature attraction, Defeat means elimination for one of them while an Argonauts' victory will put the Scullers in a good pos!- tion to overtake Tigers. Not only for importance but also for the brand of play that is ex- pected makes the M.A.A.A. and Ar- gonaut clash attractive. M.A.A.A. has a colorful collection of stars led by Gordon Perry about the best running half in Canadian football. The Wheelers also have Wally Whitty and Huck Welch, two great booters, to match punts with Frank Turville ace of the Argos. Daring Tacklers In Montreal last week it was the wonderful work of two wingmen that played a major part in tying the Tigers. Garbarino and Monty, who smashed throug to stop Tigers bucks with daring close formation tackling while they were just as good at stopping their men in the open fleld, but Argos are well forti- fled with Moe Carney leading the tackling brigade. Coach Buck McKenna will start the same team against Montreal that defeated Ottawa last week with Frank Turville and Armour Munro pairing "on the backfleld. Munro has developed into a classy running mate for Turville and the Argo Tear-guard" should give M.A.A.A.'s brilliang backs a good battle. Tur- ville out-kicked Whitty when they met in Montreal at the start of he season and although Welch may oppose him on Saturday the Tor- onto booter seems a little better. Argonauts are at top strength or the game with Ooks Carrick back in uniform, his sprained arm esponding to treatment. Bubs Britton, who did mot play against the Senators, will also be in uni- form and work on the second line of defence with Gord Beal, Moe Charney and Bill Darling.

Hamilton, Oct, 31.--The Jungle Kings, twice Dominion senior foot- ball champions, will indeed have an opportunity on Saturday at Ot- tawa, of proving the old adage that "a team is as strong as fits substitutes," for another regular was added to the hospital list here yesterday, when Alex Denman, star inside wing, was installed iu & room near Gear Elford at the General with a bad case of bolls. Denman suffered intensely in the game at Montreal last week, but fow knew of his pain, The boils, three or four of which are on hls left leg, became so bad yesterday that it was deemed wise to put him on the shelf for a fow days, and so he became EMord's, a neighbor of Denman will be in the institu- tion for Several days at least, which means he will miss the trip to the Capital for the first*time in many years. Tigers, therefore, wiil have but 18 men in the squad that will oppose the Senators, and it {s A certainty that the 'alternates on ho team will see plenty of action. | Tigers to Open Play 1 Coach Rodden hag decided to break the play wide open on Sat- urday, use his alternates, and | Prove to the world that Tigers arc a better aggregation than the re- sult of the game at Montreal would indicate.

Important Matters To be Discussed at A.A.U. Meeting Vancouver, B.C, Oct, 31--The air will likely be cleared of a number of long-standing problems relating to the government of amateur athletics before the annual meeting of the "Amateur Athletic Union of Canade is concluded here next week. A long list of proposed amendments will face the gathering of Dominion athlteic rulers Thursday, Friday and Satur day, Nov, 6, 7 and 8. Many matters a contentious nature nature will have to be dealt with, according to John Muter, one of the Vancouver members of a committee working on the revision of the A.A.U. handbook. A highlight will be supplied by that old hardy annual, he proposal to al- low amateurs and protessionals to | mix in sport, From British Colum- | bia will come a motion requesting | that the clause which bars amateurs from playing with professionals be struck from the handbook. Support comes for Coast views on this mat- ter from Alberta, which is proposing that the words "or against" be strick fro mthe clause, thus permiit- ting amateurs to play against pros. but not with them. To Discuss Amateur Code The Manitoba branch also is vit: ally interested in this portion of the agenda, as it has experienced some difficulty this year through a profes- sional hockey player taking part in amateur football. The Manitobians will ask for complete discvussion of the amateur code and the creation of harmony with the Dominion Football Association, Chairman W, H. Kilby of the Con- stitution and By-laws Committee will bring up the matter of revision of the A.A.U. constitution and by-laws by a Canada-wide committee.

It was probably the most gruelling practice of the season, two squads made up of senior material tearing through each other without a stop until Major Forbes ordered evory- one to the showers "on the double". VICTORIA FAT MEN ORGANIZING CLUB Victoria, B.C.--Fat men of Vic- toria are organizing a club whose chiéf purpose will be to dispel the notion that 'nobody loves a fat man." . Five men have become members and with these as a working nu- cleus, it is hoped to build up a membership of at least 100. The leader is to be known as the Prime Weight.

POSITION AND STANCE ON THE COURT. The 'basic position for singley is the center of the court. For doubles, with partners playing side by side, (Diagram A), the correct position is the center of the service court. In doubles, for back and front combina- tion (Diagram B), one partner should be at the center of the net and the other at the center of the long ser- vice line. Proper position on the court is absolutely essential to suc- cessful play. Correct stance on the couft is the | result of good footwork and effective | use of the body weight. With cach | stroke the body weight should shift | from one foot to the other thus add- | ing to the power of the shot. When | awaiting the return of the bird, take your position facing the net, with weight evenly distributed on both feet. This will lessen the chance of being caught on the wrong foot, a | weakness which soon becomes ap- | parent to an opponent. Never face | the net when making a shat. Keep | on your toes as much as possible be- ing ready to start in any direction at top speed. | Mastery of Position and Stance on| the court will give a sound basis for the further development of your play ---------------- | Mustangs Out _ | To Beat Queens | London, Oct. 31 -- Western Mus- tangs had their last tuning up last night--a half-hour scrimmage against | the "hrerny. afates "it preparmtion for their game at Kingstno on Saturday. | And if the intermediates were talk- | ing for publication, it's plenty they | could tell you, and, more still, they | | could show you in the way of mem- | | entoes, for it was anything but a | gentle canter the teams went| through. | Breen kept calling for more speed | as the Mustangs gave a fay imitation | of a juggernaut rolling down the | field.

TWO RACE HORSES MEET DEATH IN FIRE Laurel Md., Oct. 31.---At least two race horses were known to have been burned to death here last night as fire destroyed a stable not far from the Laurel race track where the Fall meeé now is in pro- gress. The horses reported lost were olden Auburn, valued at several thousand dollars, and False Pride. Early reports indicated that Frances St. L. had been injured, but how seriously was not known, As goon as the fire was discover- ed the horses were turned loose. The blaze was quickly brought un- der control and extinguished in less than a half hour. The stable was located at the rear of a hotel that was untouched by the flames. A resort is a place where middle- aged men put on riding breeches to play horse shoes.--Marseilles (Ill) Press. New Martin SAT. - MON.

It was a big and pleasant surprise to both the officers of the club and the players, and while the practice, flated to continue from twelve to one, wds cut short, and a congider~ able number of enthusiasts were disappointed, the 3,000 or more fans and fanettes who attended saw the 14 players go through quite a lively half hour or so on the ice, The squad arrived early yesterday morning from their training camp in Parry Sound, and after report- ing at the rink they were given a session of P.T. hy Joe Coyne to take out any soreness or stiffness in their muscles The brevity of the practice was due partly to the plavers and partly to the fang. The players were so keen to get on the ice and start nractice that thev started ten min- uteg before the advertised hour, and when the doors were opened for the nublic to enter the players had warmed up and found their gkating legs fairly well. As the numbers of spectators increased with every minute the players increased their efforts, and they went at fit so strongly that Coach Duncan decided to take no chances, and he called them off the ice about 20. minutes to one, while enthusiasts were stilt streaminz into the rink, 000 employees, pe as a means of preventing gangsters from holding up the loyees.--Quebee | Chronicle-Telegr: 1 LEO REISMAN and Hrs ORCHESTRA FOX TROT 22537 MAURICE CHEVALIER. 22542 "MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME" From the picture' Whoopee® TED WEEMS and FOX TROT 22492 JOHNNY MARVIN VocaL 22502 At Any Victor Dealer VICTOR TALKING MACHINE COMPANY OF CANADA LIMITED
