STARS ASSEMBLE sent for Pre-Olympic Meet (By Canadian Press) Winnipeg, Man., Sept 4 Without the flashing feet cy Williams, the Canadian and bor Day, may and Winnipeg track miss a thrill, but the pic year meeting will bring to- gether most of the fleet and strong who plan to wear Canada's colors to the Los Angeles Olym piad next summer, Officials are not certain strong the eastern delegation be but they felt Olympic Club would send its standing stars west meet an hoped track suffer a fans will how will sure Toronto ed. A strong band of athletes from the west is sure to compete Two veterans are slated make comebacks at the ber 7 meet and a host of young- sters, most of them just out high school, or still, will attempt to block them. Jimmy Ball, three years ago one of the quarter-miler in the world, wil wind up a strenuous summer campaizn by trving Canadian 440-y from him a year ago by Alex Wil- son, sensational Montreal Notre Dame runner, And to Guianan who runs in the Domin- ion for Hamilton Olympic club, will be here to win back some of the glory that has dropped from him in the last two years. Both Ball and Edwards appear ripe for the sternest opposition thre championships are likely to produce. The Winnipeg star de- feated a crack field at Vancouver recently, running 400. metres in 19 3-5 seconds and a week later captured the quarter-mile event at the Banff games without trying hard. - With Williams not present, the 100 and 220-yard -events will be wide open. Johnny Fitzpatrick, the bronzed Hamilton ace, who lias given Williams some hard battles, will be favorite if he runs but other eastern sprinters, in- cluding his team-mate, Ralph Adamg, and Edmonton's up-and- coming star, Buster Brown, will bo strong contenders. Brown was clocked at Banff in' 9 4-5 seconds for the century, with a stiff breeze to aid him, J Art Ravensdale, young hurdler from Cobourg, Ont., is entered and one of the outstanding events of the meet may be his race with Norman Coulter, the Winnipeg timber-topper who ran wild in castern United States inter-colle- ziate meets last spring for Pitts- burgh. Coulter's entry for the 110-yard Rurdles was received a few days ago. British Columbia is sending two track men, Fred Martell, quarter-miler from Trail Jack Melville, of Vancouver, who will run in the three-mile event. BASEBALL RESULTS INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE Won P.C.

Winnipeg Has Most T Unique Ball Team (By Canadian Press) Winnipeg, Man., Sept, 4.--Of all the hundreds of ball teams in Canada, Winnipeg has what is perhaps the most unique--a one- armed brigade, Organized five years ago by a number of war veterans, it was made an iron-clad rule that no player could grerform for the "Amputations'" team unless he had lost an arm over-seas. Win- ning and losing games all over the province--mostly winning -- the team hecame famous, locally. But the strict rule was broken. They took Jack Peppin, who qualified in every way except that he had two arms. But Jack has only one leg. In 1927 the most handicapped ball team in Canada played 46 games and won 43 of them. The lineup is: W. Furrell, FE. Bailey, P. Shipman, H. Davis, Bill Wheeler, J. R. McDougall, W. Woods, Roy Sandison, Jack Pep- x Ten innings. pin and L.

The game was an exciting, rough-and-tumble contest, with Canadiens in the unusual role of roughing it up. Maroons outplay- ed Canadiens for the first two periods, but the Flying French- men's rugged play, unusual for them, took heavy toll on a Ma- roon team not unscarred at the start.
