Executive Quits Kingston Club Kingston, Dec. 21. -- On the threshold of a new season, when every other city and town boast- ing representation in the Ontario Hockey Association is prepared for the season's activities, King- ston is today an "orphan" city in the organization.

It is not so much a matter of financial assistance for there is little question but that the junior and intermediate teams would just about pay their own way. It is the moral back- ing of men who want Kingston to continue her proud record in the sport that is needed most. Collegiate Sport t Shorts Having entered the race for the Sheriff Paxton Trophy, the hockey team held a practice Thursday with twenty candidates out. Besides the old guard, sev- eral promising mew comers were there. Of these Stuart and Pearce look the best, Coach MacKenzie has nothing to worry about in the line of a goa'keeper with Peterson and Gifford, two highly experienced net guardians ready for duty be- tween the posts. On the defence, Law at right and Crothers and Kashul alter- nating at left will most likely be the selection. This will give the team a rugged, hard-hitting de- fance and a tricky scoring threat in Law. The front line will find the one and only Joe Graboski at centre, flanked by Clif Maundrell and Doug. Conant. Here is a fast ckating, goal-getting trio who are certain to cause the opposing net- minder plenty of trouble, The "Kid Line," is the second tine, with 'Shorty" Smith at cen- tre, Jim Chappell right wing and 'Mahatma Gandhi" Shelenkoff, at left wing. Thése play a rast passing game which nets them many goals. As this is the only team enter- ed from the city, it deserves the support of everyone and so let's see you get out and lend your support when the time comes. With the exams occupying the time and attention of everyone, the last two weeks, basketball practices were suspended for the time being. Now along comes the rumour that Jarvis Collegiate team is coming down for a game Tuesday afternoon! "Believe it or not," your scribe and Doug. Conant opened the tennis season for 1932, engaging in a brisk set yesterday after- noon. The play was fast and furious with yours truly coming out on the short end of the score, 7-5, NEW MISS ENGLAND IS TO BE BUILT London, Dec. 21. -- A new Miss England will be ready soon to defend Britain's speedboat championship of the world. Lord Wakefield, owner of the Miss England II which Kaye Don drove to a world's record of over 110 miles an hour at Lake Garda, Italy, last year, said he had let the contracts for the construction of her successor. Miss England II was consider- ably damaged at Detroit in the Harmsworth Cup race last sum- mer when she turned over on the second day of racing. It is understood here that the boat has been repaired but will be held in reserve and that the pew Miss England will include several new features, which, it is hoped, will make her a safer craft than Miss England II. Rangers Earned Tie with Canucks Montreal, Dec. 21.--The 2-to-2 tie between New York Rangers and Canadiens here Saturday night provided a well-filled house with a hockey game which for sheer speed and scintillating hoc- key has not been equalled here during the present National Hoc- key League season. The Cana- diens twice came from behind to effect a deadlock, which an over- time session failed to break. It was fast and fariou- hoc- key. Both teams were in good form and both played the game fast-skating, hard-checking style of hockey dear to the hearts of the fans. With bewildering rap- idity attacks formed at either end of the ice, and both teams main- tained a dizzy pace that slacken- ed only in the overtime, with both teams fatigued, Passes click. ed smoothly into place, and only the toughness of the respective defences and the alert work of the goalers kept down the score. All four goals were scored with precision and polish, the only way in which Roach and Hains worth could be worsted. The first period brought two goals, and the second was productive of two more, The third period and over- time session were scoreless. Rich lover (eloping with his adored) : How ham 4 is the fare?

Detriot Rally to Tie Amerks ---- New York, Dec. 21.--Trailing 2 to 0 at the end of the second period of a dull National Hockey League game, the Detroit Fal- cons came back, in the third frame last night, to earn a 2 to 2 tie with the New York Am- ericans. The draw left the Amerks tied with the Montreal Canadiens for the Canadian div- ision lead. The Americans had all the bet- ter of the first two frames, Nor- mie Himes broke away from a Falcon attack in the first when Rabbit McVeigh was in the pen- alty box and scored the first goal. In the second Himes shared a loose puck and passed to Mc- Veigh for another goal. The Faleons broke away from the slow-motion play in the third period to score twice. Larry Aurie sank a garom shot that made its way through a group of players in front of the net. A three-man play brought the tying goal, Eb- bie Goodfellow scoring on passes from Reg Noble and Herbie Lewis, HARVARD BEATEN IN OVERTIME Boston, Dec. 21, -- The unde- feated McGill hockey team sextet gave Harvard ite first upset of the season Saturday night by a 5-3 margin, the Montreal col- legians scobing twice in the sec- ond overtime session. The Crimson were unable to hold a two-goal lead and subse- quently trailed until the untra period, when Pell tied the score on a pass from Putnam, Both teams put on determined attacks in the first overtime session, but failed to break the deadlock. Early in the second overtime, Nels Crutchfield put MeGill back into the lead by scoring on a long angle shot, and Hugh Farguar- son tallied the final point. U.S. ELIMINATIONS ARE COMMENCED New York, Dec. 21.--The all- Metropolitan hockey team trounced a picked team from the Adirondack region 4 to 0 yester- day in a test game of the series which is to. lead to the selection of the United States Olympic sextet. The Mets, composed almost en- tirely of the Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth Alumni who play for the St. Nicholas Club, displayed far better team work and stick work. The Adirondack players selected from Clinton, Lake Placid, Schenectady and Alex- andria Bay, had plenty of speed but no organized attack. Johnny Jones scored the first net goal in 7.52 of the first per- fod. In the second frame the Mets made three more tallies, Johnny Bent sinking two and Frank Nel- son one, Jim Priestley, centre, was out- standing for the losers, breakinz up many Metropolitan. attacks with a good poke-check, "But surely you didn't tell him straight out that you loved him?" .

Leaders Still in the Lead Toronto, Dec. 2i.--West To- ronto and Marlboros continued at the top of the Big Six O.H.A. junior group at the Maple Leaf Arena Saturday afternoon, win- ning their parts of the scheduled double-header. The Red Army from the Junction defeated To- ronto Canoe Club by 2 to 0, while the Dukes drubbed Park dale 10 to 1. The defeats dropped the Paddlers lower in the stand- ings, while the winners moved together in a tie far in front of their rivals, Marlboros did not have much trouble putting Parkdale aside, collecting five goals in the first period and then coasting on to an easy win. Parkdale was checked to submission, being unable to make any progress in their of- fensive play while the Dukes raced around with the rubber al- most at random, Three goals by Steele and scores by May and Kitchen put the Dukes far in front in the first 20 minutes of play. In the second period Hamilton and Mitchell in- creased the Marlboro total, while to close the game Kitchen, Shill and O'Brien ran in one each. Far- rant landed Parkdale's lone goal Redmen Extended West Toronto had to work a little harder for victory, and was extended to hold an early lead when the Red Ringers staged a strong finish. A score by Whit- taker in the first period and an- other by Runyon in the second gave West Toronto {ts margin of victory, The Redmen were too strong defensively for the Pad- dlers, and bad the extra speed to keep up steady back-checking af- ter attacks on the T.C.C. goal, Jackson took Davis' place in the West Toronto goal and the shutout score is an indication of how good he wae, Davidson, form er star rail man of the Ringers, returned, but was watched too closely by his checks to do much damage. Acheson combined well with Davidson to form the Canoe- ists' best threat. Whittaker, Mc- Killop, Kerr and Runyon were best for West Toronto.

It was the first time this sea son *that the locals have spotted he opposition the opening goa and then come on to take ful! points. They have wiped out an enemy lead and secured a tie on a couple of occasions, but it had become an almost accepted fact that unless the Leafs scoreq the first goal that the best they could do was to get a division of the points, but now they have broken through that mental hazard they are liable to go places in a quick hurry. As was expected, the clash with the group tafl-enders was a tongh battle, but the Leafs came through and while slightly out- played in the opening chapter they had sufficient margin in the second and third roundg to deserve the victory, which was a good start on their strenuous five-games-in-eight-nights streak. Neither team asked for, nor gave any quarter and while there were but eleven penalties imposod the going was on the heavy side. Bailey was given the only major penalty of when he clipped Starr on the face and brought blood; with less than two minutes to go.

With only seconds remaining of the ove b0 time, "Mush" March took a pass | from Tommy Cook and beat Chabot from close range, the de- fence having moved over to cover Cook and Adams.
