And a return to this invigorating country sport is over the bodies of 10,000 hounds--destroyed during the war because there wasn't enough food to go around. A well-known follower of the hounds in pre-war days said society people haven't enough dogs to maintain the fashionable packs and it is "extremely difficult" to get either grooms or horses, even if they could afford both. "The truth is," he confided, "we are seeing a return to the really great days of hunting in England, with friends riding over each oth- er's land for the sheer enjoyment of the sport. "That is the true hunting spirit of England. The fashionable packs of pre-war days were not in the least representative of fox-hunting, which for centuries was a feature of rural England." But the story has a sad tinge to it. Many bemoan the passing of the shots for his 28 rounds, giving him fourth spot with an average of 74.25, and Red Whitcombe followed --30 rounds, average 74.42. ode oe ob Ronald Geddes, 25-year-old as- sistant professional at Moor Aller- ton Gold Club in Leeds has ad- vanced the date of his wedding--to get a job.

Canadian Sport Snapshots WILF GRUSON Cana Press Staff Writer Toronto, Nov. 16.--(CP)--Prob~ ably not many will take him seit ously, but for the record it shoul be noted once more that Annis Stukus--Big Stuke of the football- playing Stukus brothers--has de- cided once again to give up the game, In the past few seasons that has coh to be an annual post-seasoz decision for Big Stuke, yet each fall has found him out there again in a uniform, usually persuaded by the fact that he can make a few hun- dred bucks at something he still can do pretty well in spite of all the '| knocks he has taken Annis, who mixes football with a sports writing chore for The To- ronto Daily Star, has worded his re- tirement communique this season a little differently. He's not retiring-- he's quitting, and in that lies a dis- tinction as related by Big Stuke's boss, Andy Lytle, Sports Editor of 'Star. gg Ton limped into the football officials' room at Varsity Stadium last Saturday. It was the day after Big Stuke's team, Toronto Indians, had been upset in the Ontario Rugby Football Union semi-finals by their intra-city rivals, Balmy Beach. Telling of this scene Andy wrote: "Hec Creighton took a look at the sober-faced, deflated man, and said: 'You're not playing any more foot- ball, I trust. "'No Hec,' said he, 'this time I'm not retiring. When a player says he's retiring it suggests, like a wo- man's yes, that he means maybe. This time I'm not retiring, I quit.'" This may be the season which the 32-year-old Annis actually means is his laa', but many won't be convinced until next fall when they'll learn definitely whether he has relented again. If he's through his last game will be today. The Indians play Hamil- ton Tigers of the Big Four in an exhibition charity game and Annis may be in the lineup although he says he is physically or mentally unfit for duty.
