Connell starred with Ottawa ough Rider clubs that won the Grey Cup in 1925 and 1926 and was the best player of the se- ries when Ottawa won the Mann Cup, emblem of the national la- crosse title, in 1928. But in all his years of sport he never earned a nickel. : "I was born about 15 years , too soon," Connell says, "I was on the way out when salaries were on the way in." He has few regrets, however. "We had a lot of fun playing in those days, more than most of the athletes of today, I'll F wager." i Connell, 65, retired in Decem- ber after almost 42 years as : a photo-engraver in the map- ping division of the federal : mines department. He's now settling down to a quiet life of retirement in his comfortable home in east-end Ottawa. FAVORED LACROSSE In his younger days Connell was involved in some kind of sport every month of the year-- < boxing, lacrosse, hockey, foot- ball and basketball. "IT remember one night in the early '20s when I went from work to box three rounds at a smoker. Then I ran over to the YMCA and played in the first game of a basketball double- header. From there I went to the old arena and was in the last half of a hockey double bill." Lacrosse, however, was his first love. He broke into Ot- tawa's senior league when he was 13 and for almost 20 years was a standout on every top lacrosse club the city produced. Those were the days when la- crosse was one of the most pop- ular sports in the country, An exhibition game in 1923 between Ottawa Shamrocks and a tour- ing Oxford - Cambridge team drew 9,000 fans. Connell remembers that game in particular because of one of. the Oxford players, a standout forward named Lester B, Pear- son, He still has a photograph of that team with the present prime minister, looking serious under a thick thatch of dark hair, prominent in the centre row. 20 goals in the series. "Lacrosse was a great sport, started to go for easier games," Connell says. '"Then we ran out of players. They couldn't take it, either."

'In Old Country MONTREAL (CP)--A_ mes- sage of thanks to the Boston Bruins from Chicago goalie Glenn Hail would be in order. For the Bruins, by pumping 11 goals into Toronto nets last Saturday night, enabled Hall to take a seven-goal lead in his race with Charlie Hodge and Johnny Bower for the 1,000 'Vezina Trophy. Hall held a three-goal edge over Bower and seven-goal lead over Hodge going into last weekend's action. When the tu- mult and the shouting ended, Hall was ahead by both by a far more comfortable margin.
