The official entry went in to Sec- retary Hewitt today and the group by that body will be the next step toward bringing this city, which is a hotbed of hockey, up to the re- alization of the need of an artifici- al arena all its own.

From the time that Phillips regained his feet, he and Jackie Horner, of Syra- cuse, went along at an aggressive rate, with the tide of battle fluctuat- ting first in favor of one and then the other, and while the local lad closed with a strong rally that took the sixth and final round by the big- gest margin of any except the first, he was just short enough to permit the julges to give the decision to Horner by a unanimous vote, It was a good battle all the way and, while he was defeated, Phillips showed a decided improvement over his form in his previous engagement, and with two hard bouts as a foundation he General Motors' Blue Devils Rugby Football Club, including players and executive, taken at the Motor City Stadium, on Thanksgiving Day of this year, when the Blue Devils defeated Galt in the last group game of the year.

BURMISTER MA YREFEREE Welland, Nov. 25. -- "Butter" Burmister in Welland yesterday stated that yet he hadn't located for the season. The former Wel: land star, who gave a smart dis- play of netminding in the Can-Pro League last year, declared that there was a chance of his joining the staff of pro league whistle blowers and bell ringers. He evinced great interest in the re- turn of the Welland teams to the O.H.A. Oakville and A urora Win S.P. A. Games Last Night Out-of-Town Teams Meet Oakville Juniors Advance ot | Expense of Willowdale Kids--Pickering College of Aurora Juniors--Inter- est Is Quickening Toronto, Nbv, 25.--Out-of-town teams visited Toronto last night to try their luck in the 8.P.A, pre- season junior series, Oakville and Aurora winning the right to re- turn for further competition, Oak- ville eliminated Willowdale by 7 to 2, while Aurora put Pickering students out 7 to 1, The games were below the average of early eason hockey with many of the | boys on ice for the first time this | vear and it was more Or less glorified shinny. While ragged, play was appeared prospects on all squads which should be | developed when practices and! games smooth out the rough spots and spystems are adopted, Aurora, hinted as a championship hope for Ontario hockey, did not appear as strong as expected with new additions to the team failing to | impress, A. complete forward line from Paris started for Aurora and al- though they had a little combina- tion and seemed to know what to do with the puck, there was noth- ing in their play to give any in- dication of future greatness, Two players . from Gravenhurst also helped Aurora's cause but the complete team will have to im- prove a great deal to be consid- ered in the running. Pickering students gave tha gelected Aurora team a good tus- gle and only for several easy goals that slipped into their cage, past a reserve goalie, they would have heen much closer on the score gheet, Tha students were forced to start without their regular net- minder, who has not recovered from rugby injuries and they were groatly weakened. Tt was only in the second priod when - Plckering tired from the pace that Aurora took command, Jack Raynor Good aa Pickering put up a good strug- gle considering the opposition, and never gave up trying for a score, being rewarded in the last period when Allan tallied on a long drive. Jack Raynor was the hest for the Students, although tiring fast and he had a good partner on the de- fence in Toller. The Paris forward line of Ray, Glass and Hodder showed a nice brand of early season hockey while Smart and Scott paired well on the defensive, hut they all fa}l- ed fo live up to the advance rumor that the North Yonge Street boys would be the ones to watch. Hod- der was the hest of the crowd, getting three goals and an assist while Glass also counted three times, Hedney getting -the other tally.
