Three important games are scheduled for the Arena tonight which have the utmost bearing on fifth and sixth position, the rungs now precariously held by Courtice and The Times. The Times vs Alger Press Starting at eight o'clock, The Times meets Alger Press in a game which means considerable prestige ' for the winner, as well as two ime portant points.

The game was reasonably clean up until the third period, which saw five penalties handed out, two to Robson and three to Duplate, Duplate must now beat Parts, Bowers and Monarchs if they are to overtake Robson, who have 10 points in the standing, plus a protest which has yet to be ruled upon. Should the protest be allowed Robson would automatically be awarded two points, which would oust Duplate. Courtice 4, Bolahood's 2 Bolahood's, who might "have wound up in first place and who were aching to get at Ray's Grille In the finals, blew their chances by to the surprising sextet from Courtice by a 4-2 count, The Courtice team seems to play its best games against the toughest conten- tion. No score sheet of the game was available in time to give indi- cation as to goal scorers, nor how the game progressed from period to period. However, about the result there is mo element of doubt. Fittings 2, Pitts' 2 Fittings, not a playoff threat themselves but a threat to any team which figures they can trample them while on the way, proved just that when they tiled the Pitts' gamesters 2-2. They still seek a win and on this showing can topple either Courtice tonight or Weston whom they will meet later in the week.

BRITONS GLOOMY ABOUT COUNTRY'S SPORT PROSPECTS & London, March 10 -- (AP) -- Britain's black year of sport in 1046, in which the country was trimmed at oricket, tennis, golf and horse racing, has whipped up gossip around the pavilions and bars that it might be better for everybody's peace of mind if Britons quit the international sports arena for about 10 years and allowed a new batch of athletes and horses to mature. Oricket-playing countries will shout against such a drastic step, but the fact remains that there is a of sports lovers who would like Britain to step out for a few years and then come back with a breed of athletes who could more than hold their own against the rest of the world. Plans for Future It's an old alibl that Britons don't enough good food to bulid world on the playing fleld. But htis "let's quit for a time" attitude is based on a desire to see Britain get back in front of the rest of the world in the sports field. A positive step in this direction already has been taken by the Brit- ish Ice Hockey Association. This body entered a team for the com- ing world championships at Prague, and when it found it could not get players good enough sent an in- paving. that Britain would not be A. F.

Golfer Henry Cotton, who has prematurely been reported as cap- tain of Britain's Ryder Cup team to play against United States profes- sionals fniext November, seems to hold similar views. War Hit Development Cotton has ted out that the war has checked development of young golfers and he rams home the point that Britain's team against top-flight American pros will for the mon, Dur have to be picked from ers who were knocking around the courses back Club and pavilion gossipers went into action anew as they read an interim report from the British or- ganizing Sommiie for the Olympic Games to be held in London in 1048.

It's a strong point with the "let's quit for a time" section that Brit- ain will not be in shape to put top- flight" athletes on the tracks in % 1948, and they would have preferred that Britain did not act as host country or even participate in the 14th games. The various sports bodies, apart |g perhaps from the Football Assocla- tion and the Amateur Boxing As- sociation, who will nominate men for pre-Olympic trials, don't appear to be too hopeful that Britain will make a good showing in these 1948 games. Test Matches Didn't Help A great deal of the present "let's quit" feeling can be traced to the beating the England cricket team has taken from Australia.

Also Had Three Wins Paul Michael's rink won their three games but ended up with a total of only 14. They had comfort- alMe wins in their first two games but in the final match, against Alex, Brodie's two-win aggregation, Michael's men had to come from far behind to finally win out on the last two ends and take a 11-9 vic- tory. The three wins and 14 total gave the second prizes. Alex Brodie's two previous wins for a total of 13 proved good enough to cop the 3rd set of prizes, for "high two-wins", slightly better than the other two-win totals reg- islerey by other entries in the day's play. After losing their first two games, Ed. Michael's rink stepped into Percy Eveleigh's men in the even- ing game and came up with a one- sided 22-3 score to win the high single-win prizes. Michael's men could do nothing wrong in this game and Eveleigh's foursome, on the other hand, couldn't get a break anywhere down the line. Keen Action Prevails Most of the games were decided on very close scores, with keen competition prevailing in every draw. The competing rinks in al- most every instance where well- balanced first or second-year curl- ers as leads, "seconds" playing their own positions and the more experienced players acting as skips and vice-skips.
