INDSOR BULLDOGS WIN INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE Bulldogs Held Buffalo Scoreless Last Night To ~ Win League Championship Overcome Packed Defence "in Final Game of League Title Playoffs ** Fort Erie Arena, April 8.--Wind- the international Hockey Tae championship here last night they held Buffalo to a score- less tie in an overtime game. The Bisons needed a victory over the Bulldogs to capture the Teddy Oke trophy. Buffalo finishes in second place in the Dlayutts, one point ad of Cleveland. Shbed the play last night the Bisons deserved to win, but their innumer- able attacks met a stubborn Wind- gor defence, and Smith in goal was impregnable. He turned aside many shots labelled for the net, while in scrimmages--of which there were many--his cage bore a-charmed life. The Bulldogs played a defensive game throughout, and with the ex- ception of about 10 minutes in the second period seldom made auy concerted attempt to score. Both teams played a fast and hard checking game, while combina- tion play was mostly confined to two men attacks. Taugher had only about half as many shots to stop as Smith, and the Buffalo goalie had longer shots to turn aside. Windsor on Defensive Windsor played purely defensive hockey, and: much of the time reli- ed on lifts and shooting the puck the length of: the rink to avert the steady pressure of the Bison at- tacks. The Windsor forwards back- checked steadily and effectively throughout, smashing up many drives by Buffalo. In three or four scrambles in front of the Windsor eage Smith emerged with the puck when the players were unpiled. Buffalo jumped into the fray in the first period, and never let up in TAILORED Scotland Woolen Mills SAM ROTISH, Manager 11 Simcoe Street South their attempt to score. Ye CART W LUMBER (© It was a pretty tired Windsor team when they left the ice when the game was over to stand up under such a per- sistent drive as Buffalo unleashed. The Bisons never quit, but with Windsor packing the centre near their own blue line it seemed im- possible to make any headway in closing in on the Windsor ciadel. Buffalo Battles to End. Taugher, in goal, saved an a couple of occasions when it seemed as if Windsor was certain to score. Lederman on the defence was a host, while Cain also effective with hig rushes, On the forward line Gross, Voss, Roth, Lauder and Bo- gardis worked like Trojans to try to score. Smith was the big factor in the Windsor victory. He was given sup- port by Bellemer and Brown, on the defence. On the forward line Lever, Roche and Robinson were promin- ent in breaking up Buffalo attacks, while Duguid and Robinson threa- tened the Buffalo goal at times. PLAN ROCKNE MEMORIAL Strong City, Kan, April 8.--A national movement te erect a mon- ument and lay out a small park at the exact spot whére Knute K Rock- ne, Notre Dame football coach and several other persons were killed near here recently in an airplane crash, was started yesterday. SERIES EVENED Boston, April 8.--The Springfield Indians evened the hockey play-off series for the Canadian-Amerjcan league championship by 3-2 victory over the Boston Bruins Cubs before 15,000 in the Boston Garden last night. 22 THOROUGHBREDS LOST Anchorage, Ky., April 8.--Eight thoroughbred horses in training, eight broodmares and six foals lost their lives last night when fire, be- lieved caused by defectice wiring, destroyed a stable on the farm of W. C. Weant at Oakland Station. YE FICKLE SUMMER MAID Oak: Did they cut thelr Initials on your bark again? Elm: Yes, and what's strange her's are just the same, but his are changed. ANOTHER GRASS FIRE The fire department were caMed shortly after two o'clock yesterday afternoon to extinguish a fire on Westmoreland Avenue. They found on their arrival that the fire was located on a vacant lot at the west- ern end of the street next to the golf course. The fire was extinguish- ed with case. With" the entry eof the Port Hope club still in 'doubt, the personnel of the Lakeshore Baseball League is as yet uncertain, At a meeting of the league held in Port Hope some weeks ago at which it was hoped to elect officers and make tentative plans 'for the coming year, practizal- ly nothing was done. The reason for this being that the Port Hope and Cobourg clubs were uncertain as to the future of hardball in these communities. However, with the decision an- nounced this week by the Cobourg club that they would enter a team, one of the obstacles has been remoy- ed. With the entry of Cobourg only Port Hope is left to come in. This club has already held one meeting at which no definite decision was reach- ed. However, another meeting is be- ing held this evening and it is hoped that a definite step will he taken to- ward puttin~ a team in the league. The feeling of the Port Hope and Lakeshore Baseball Loop Future Is Still Uncertain Cobourg clubs at the league meeting was that they would have, trouble in putting in a team which would mea- sure up to the calibre of the Osh- awa and Peterboro clubs who have a larger field of players to choose from. Cobourg in particular was hard hit through the lose of "Tiny" Waldon, a promising nitcher. The other clubs in the league are due to experience a loss in players as well Peterboro, 'for instance, have to con- tend with the possible loss of plav- ers to the Senior loop which it is proposed to form there, while Osh- awa will be without at least ene of last year's stars, It would be a bad loss to the sport- ing fraternity in Oshawa if .th .e were no Lakeshore League team this year, Softball which for a time at- tracted many admirers is now show- ing a falling off in interest and with the possibility that there will be no Senior Lacrosse teant here this sum- mer, baseball should enjoy renewed favor by the tans. Canadiens In Better Shape for N ext Game Montreal, April 8.--As the Chicago Black Hawks will not ar- rive until today principal interest last night in the forthcoming re- newal of their Stanley Cup tussle with Montreal Canadiens centred around the physical condition of the present Stanley Cup holders. The teams will clash on Thursday night, again on Saturday, and, if a fifth game is necessary, it is ten- tatively set for next Tuesday. Each team won a game in the first two games at Chicago on I'riday and Sunday last, The chief worry in the Cana- dien camp centres around Howie Morenz, cyclonic centre player, who was hard hit by Taffy Abel on Sunddy, sustaining a wrenched shoulder. His - condition, hows- ever, was reported as improvea and he is a certainty to play. Howie feels affronted that he has not scored a single gogl in seven play-off games. Pete Lepine, who suffered a fractured finger on Friday, is re- sponding to treatment, whiie Armand Mondou and Albert Le- due, who have been in hospital since the Boston series, were out for skating practice yesterday. Roth appeared wobbly, but will probably be in uniform for Thurs- day night, even if not used much. Jolinny Gagnon is in Chicoutimi where. the funeral of his father takes place today. He is due back in Montreal just before game time, Thus Canadiens will likely en- ter Thursday's game as strong as they were against Chicago in the first game and, with the advant- age of home ice and the added rest, they are being favored in the iting to take the third game, inner will take a command- ing lead in the three out of five The scores of hockey games playea yesterday were as follows: Intermational League Play-off zWindsor ...0 Buffalo ......0 zTen minutes overtime, Windsor wins championship.

Wood. stock, wepresented by the Carleton County Vocation School's team, won the first game last night, 36-33, but were unable to overcome the drive made by the Sherbrooke team. BRITISH WOMAN LEADS (ireenboro, N.C., April 8.--Miss Betty Dix Perkins, British golfer, won the qualifying round of the Sedgefir'd women's Dogwood golf tournament here yesterday, with a 18-hole score of 85. Mrs. O. 8. Hill, Kansas City veteran, and Miss Helen Waring, of Pinehurst, were tied for second place with 86 each. One stroke behind them came Miss Peggy Wattles, of Buffalo, with 87. wi "The RECORD SPEAKS or ITSELF - Turrets, too, hold the non-stop record of pleasing cigarette smokers. Month after month, year after year, the demand for Turrets increases because they suit the big majority of smokers. Afterall, nothing can replace good, honest tobacco; grown and ripened right out in the field under nature's own sunlight-- nothing artificial about that--and the high quality is "inbred." Mild and Fragra nt sjurret CIGARETTES An oil electric engine- car on the Ca National Railways made a non-stop run * from Montreal to Vancouver, 2937 miles, in 67 hours, averaging 434 miles an hour-- a world's record in railroading. Softball Clubs Asked To Affiliate With Oshawa City Industrial League Groupings In T.and D. are All Arranged Groupings in the senior Toronto and District Football Association Leagues were arranged at a meeting of the directors held last night in Toronto, As a result of the group- ings, Oshawa Nationals will play in the Major League as they have done for the last few seasons, while the Oshawa City club will again be found in First Division, In all 29 clubs ap- plied for places in league and ten of these were placed in Major League, twelve in the First Division, and sey- en in the Mid-Week League, in which there is still a vacancy. The complete groupings in: the leagues are as follows: Major League -- Canadian General Electric, Congasco, Earlscourt Ken- woods, Lancashire, Mimico Beach, Oshawa Nationals, Toronto Irish, Beaches United, C.P.R,, and Earls- court Corinthians. First Division--Clydebank, Oshawa City, Northumberland and Durham, Avondale, Bricklayers, Royal Cana- dian Air Force, Sons of Ireland, Welsh F. C, Leaside, Weston Rang- ers, Swansea, and Queen City. Mid-Week League--Ontario Hydro Electric,De Forest Crosley, C, P. R. Coach Yards, Rogers Electric, Royal York, Northern Electric, and Cana- dian Industries, Toronto Leafs Again Defeated LJ » LJ Indianapolis, Ind., April 8 --Pitcher Arthur Mills went the route against the Indianapolis Indians here yester- day afternoon but the Toronto Leafs could not do any effective hitting be- hind him and he had to accept a 4 to 2 defeat. It was the first of three exhibition games which the Leafs play at Washington Park here this week. Mills permitted the Indians eight hits, four of which were bunched in the second inning for two runs, A smart double play in this frame aid- ed Mills, for, following it, Emmet McCann, making his first appear- ance in an Indianapolis uniform, glowted a home run over the left field ence. Football Team Seeks Dressing Rooms At Parr Members of the Oshawa City Football Club object to dressing in a building which, during fair time, is devoted to the display of chick- ens and other fowl, they intimated in a letter to the parks commision last night. They contended that players on visiting teams gained a poor impression of Oshawa when they were forced to don their play- ing togs in an environment which savored too strongly of poultry. "There is indeed need for an ade- quate dressing rooms at Alexandra Park, E. Bradley stated. "The best playing field in the city is at the park and we should endeavor to get as many teams to use it as pos- sible." The whole commission agreed with Mr. Bradley and apointed W. A. Coad and himself to investigate the matter, If the commission is reasonably sure that athletic teams will make use of the park, it will endeavor to provide proper accom- modation.

Letter Sent Out by League Secretary Issues Call to In- terested Clubs To Be Ready for Meeting in Near Future Things are now beginning to stir in real earnest in the Industrial Soft- ball League." Over the signature of Art. W, Rowden, the league secre- tary, a letter has been sent out to organizations and clubs believed to be interested in the Industrial League, with the intimation that a meeting is to be held in the near tu- ture to make the plans for the com- ing season This letter should help to stir up considerable interest, and season, It reads as follows: "Gentlemen ;-- "April. The month when we begin to think of softball, that popular pas- time which is, each year, becoming even more popular, two reasons rea- sons for this 'being that it is fast and exciting to both player and fan. "The O.C.ILA.A, executive feel that the year 1931 should yield in Oshawa a splendid softball season and with this optimistic view we are preparing for an increased number of entries, We want as many teams as possible; in fact we would like to have all the clubs in Oshawa that will be spon- soring a softball team, to affiliate with the O.CLAA. We believe it to be a mutual benefit. "This season the association is sending three teams into the Ontario play downs, namely Junior, interme- diate and Senior B. The Intermedi- ates and Senior B winners will be determined under one schedule, but will be grouped separately. The sys- tem is somewhat similar to that used in the major professional hockey. "The weaker teams will be grouped in Intermediate series and the stronger in Senior B. The winners of the groups will represent Oshawa in that series in the O.A.S.A. play- downs, The two group leaders will also play each other for the league championship and the trophy. "We believe that this idea will add interest to the game and we ask all the softball clubs to join us and help put softball in Oshawa another notch higher, "We would ask that you watch the press for the announcement of the next meeting and have your repre- sentatives there, at which time every- thing can be explained more fully, "Let's all go into this thing with enthusiasm. Let's all unite into one large strong association and together put softball over in Oshawa in a much bigger way. "Yours truly, W. A. ROWDEN, "Secretary." Four Teams For Senior Lacrosse oom.» Toronto, April 8--Although it has not definitely been decided on, the O.A.L.A. senior series will most like- ly be composed of four teams, Brampton, St, Simon's with the new addition to Toronto Native Sons and the return of Mimico. Senior clubs operating have the power to admit or refuse new entries, and there is not likely to be any objections by Brampton and St. Simon's. After the O.A.L.A, annual conven- tion last Friday the senior teams were not opposed to the new entries, but delegates wanted to confer with their clubs before making a decision. They were supposed to report any objection to Secretary Gene Dopp last Monday, and as there has not been any word, Native Sons and yMimico are apparently in. The sen- jor clubs meet on Friday night, when the question will be settled, The new additions may only gain entry on certain conditions, for St. Simon's are opposed to Native Sons taking any of their former players, while Mimico is not likely to be granted its - request for territorial rights on Weston players. If Mim- ico could land help from the Humber Town a strong team would be -form- ed, but according to the constitution, players must compete with the club nearest their home if there is not a team in their own municipality, and Weston js nearer Toronto, If Native Sons gain entry a pow- erful force is certain, for besides a strong 'collection already lined up with promised assistance from Osh- wa, Ted Reeve and Bert Burry, aces »f the Brampton champions, are also hinted as Native prospects.

As she kisses Ronny in a slsterly fashion, Ethan whom Nina has teld that Helen and Ronny were once in love, coems upon them, Ethan announces' that he and Helen are engaged. INSTALMENT XX The gale of greeting, of wonder, of congratulation was over. It had been congratulation with a subtle note of respect in it, Helen realized afterward. She had never thought, in the hidden enchanted days in the arden with the Kingsways, just ow much of social control marriage to Ethan Kingsway would mean. Finally they were alone in the car together again, rushing down the road in the crisp starry evening wind, Patricia on the back seat was nearly asleep. Ethan, his eyes ard- ent, turned impetuously to Helen, taking her hand where it lay slim | and brown and ungloved on her, knee. "Ethan," she said, with an effort, "it was very chivalrous of you to do that.....But I dont' want love on an impulse. And I don't want to have ou Jove at all, unless you can be- ieve in me. I--Oh, I couldn't stand It Because--I believe so in you." Ethan ordinarily drove as easily and effortlessly as he did most things, but the car gave a jerk under his surprised hands as he checked it beside the road. "Why, Helen!™ he said, "I know It as takimg too much for granted. Forgive me. But--our talk on the way over--You knew I loved you. I thaoght you loved me. It was a crazy way to have it happen. But there waasn't any chivalry to fit. Rather the reverse, I should think; I think I had a nerve!" She dared to look at him; his face turned to hers was warmed, made gay with happiness. He bent to her. His arms went around her again, she felt his lips on hers; and every- thing was suddenly good and joyous and right again. She spoke into his shoulder: I thought--you were angry because Jou saw me being kissed by--I prom- ed not to tell you who he was, even. I thought you'd gone back to not trusting people named Heather because of Nina--and had to love me, just the same--against your wishes. I couldn't stand that." "But, Helen, don't you know what you are to me? The King of Spain's daughter from the old rhyme! The most wonderful, the rhost perfect! The princess from the legends, al- ways!.....Helen, T'll confess. For a flash I was angry. I had just come to feel that you were mine, nobody else's. I hadr't even kissed you-- and then, I saw who it was--young Higginson. I'd heard he was in love with you. I spoke and acted out of --jealousy, first, I suppose--and then nothing morg or less than the im- mediate, intense desire, to know you were mine, to have you in my own ATs." "Ethan! It is getting fearfully late for quiet little Kingsway Vil- lage. You must take me home." After he had left her, she sat a long time not seeing anything but the happiness that had come to her; a happiness in which she was wrapped, surrounded--safe. That was it. She was safe with this courtesy of Eth- an's that was chivalry. "He thinks I'm wonderful now, be- rause he didn't think I was as good as I wys, before. Oh, I must try to be very, very wonderful!" Patricia flew at her, of course, with shrieks of delight, when, trying to look es if nothing had happened, Helen came into the library next morning. But it was no use--her yellow brown eyes were more alight than usual, and her tall, slim body In its sedate smart brown cloth dress, white-collared and white-cuffed, moved more lightly, more happily than it had. Patricia had a hawk's eye for differences. "Oh, you look all pleased and hap- py! I knew you'd like the idea of marrying Ethan once you got used to it," said this a child. "Who tol you?" Helen demanded. "Marietta. Everybody in the house knows. - Didn¥ you notice anything when Marietta let you in? 'Ethan must have night. Pp! --y see. And Cousin Ada told Marietta when she was helping her to get to bed. And, of course, Marietta told the cook and Andrew and Gladys." Patricia was excited to her depths by what had happened, and it took all Helen's strength of mind-- which wasn't so much at that, today--to pin her down to a book But copy 3 Patricia won out after all; for they | were scarcely settled together at the long, low carved library table, before the door opened, and Mrs. - way"s slender bent figure stood there.

Helen sprang up, laughing and Dlusuing, and caught Mrs, Kingsway arms. wasn't going to be official," she "I thought I'd give Ethan time break the news, And oh---dear Mrs. Kingsway--FP was as near as nothing not coming at all this morn ing." Mrs. Kingsway kissed her | "I'm very glad you're going! to be- fong to me," she said sincerely. Honestly, it's too much good luck!" Helen said naively. "To be as crazy ovas you as I am, and get to be a-- a relative." "You're going to be my daughter and I'm going to be your mother. And when I think," said Mrs. Kings- way, settling into the biggest arm-, By Margaret Widdemer chair with a sigh of relief, and lying back in it, her lined, sallow, indom- itably bright face and great knot of red hair light against the dark leather, "when I think of the girls I was simply terrified to death might have been her--and it's you, you blessed little Helen! I know I'm be- ing ungrammatical, but I'm gladder than I'm calm." ; : There wasn't need for an engage- ment luncheon to announce any- thing this time. As Ethan had said, the announcement at the door gave the news of Kingsway in general. To her surprise, she found that Mrs. Delamater joined the chorus of ad-~ miration. 4 Helen met her on the street. Mrs. Delamater rustled brightly, sweetly up to her. "Dear little girl," she said, "I'm so glad you're happy! As one of your. addest friends, you must let me do, everything I can for you. It would make me so happy if you were mar- ried from my house!" Helen stared at the amazing cool= ness of it, and was nearly tou late, in her amazement to keep Mrs. Dela- mater from accepting it as a fact accomplished. Fortunately she found time to say: "If my cousin isn't back in time, we plan to be married very quietly at Miss Louisa Milliken's. But it's sévet of you" And she ran, before Mrs. Delamater could do more than call after her. "Tell Mrs, Kingsway I'm running in to talk it over with her very soon!" Mrs. Kingsway, an eyebrow. "There are points to inflammatory rheumatism," she said naughtily. "It has ¥:pt me from the pleasure of Lydia Delamater's calls for some years past, and I think it is still in good' working order. You'll have to learn to steel yourself against so- cial climbers, Helen dear." (To be Continued) when told, lifted f MANUFACTURER | PLANS CONTEST TO STIMULATE BUYING "Spend and bring back prosperity" is the advice given by more than one important economist as a cure for the present economic situation, In spite of the fact that this advice runs counter to the time honoured proverbs about saving for a rainy day, a study of past economic his= tory proves it to be sound. Even in a period of depression a majority of the people have money to spend. But most of them lack courage to spend it. A time comes when needs become urgent, when confidence re- turns--pcople start buying, orders fil« ter back to the manufacturer who is able to employ more men. Slowly at first, but with gradually increasing speed, the economic machine gets un- der full load and most of the evils of unemployment vanish. This is in- variably the story of economic recov= ery. Without a doubt it can be hasteried. Aggressive manufacturers by the application of strong stimu lants can, in their own particular field, accelerate the buying move ment with beneficial results all round, A Canadian manufacturer of lino- leums and floor coverings is taking a definite lead in this respect by in- troducing a contest idea calculated to bring hundreds of prospective buyers into the merchant's store and thereby help him to "sell more goods. : This company is spending a goodly sum of money in advertising throughout Canada what they call the "Dominion Inlaid Pattern Scle tion Contest" in which the public and merchants stand a chance of winning large cash prizes. 'The contest is de- signed primarily: to stimulate the buying of floor coverings and apart from the self interest of the manu- facturer, which is nagural it is un- doubtedly a sincere push to move the sluggish economic machine a lit- tle faster which other Canadian manufacturers would do well to sim- ulate. -------------------- Grey-haired and young magici-- ans of England are marveling over a new trick shown at the recent dinner in London of the Magic~ fans' Club.
