that jack dempsey former heavy weight champ will become sports edi tor of liberty magazine and this prompts the evening telegram to comment now if they will let us know who is to edit the sports editor the story will be complete jt would seem that the ouelpn ojela intermediate team was having a hard job keeping their players together the players have been doing double duty and playing with the city league due to the games falling either on the same night or the players having to play every night in the week thereby not doing either league justice the city league has ruled that players can only play to the one league this affects the ojha teams star players eddie mer on ottle kaiser church mcgurn don thompson reg ridley and norm anderson the elora team may al so be affected as they

and the arena were linked at that time by telephone while now the maple leaf gardens are equipped with the latest devices in radio carrying the weekly hockey broadcasts all over canada and the united states and to newfoundland and the troops overseas in addressing the oakviile lions club recently foster hewitt said in part many people perhaps are under the impression that hockey broadcasting is a sissy job the broadcast starts at 9 o clock on saturday night and us ually continues for an hour and a half during the broadcast the recording studio at cbl makes a complete re cording of the game after leaving the arena i have to go to the cbl studio and listen to the recording and then cut this hour and a half broadcast to one of one hours duration for the overseas broadcast as all bbcbroad casts are limited to half an hour this job of cutting usually takes until 4 o clock or often as late as 9 o clock sunday morning it is reported that murray ezeard who was injured in a hockey game some

of game crowd boos referee on goal decisions dan erery wednesday night brampton one of the best hockey fixtures to take place in these parts for xanc time was the georgetown oueiph intermediate affair

started in a whirlwind of speed with georgetown time and time again pounding the guelph goal ie with rubber but due to his stel for performance were unable to bulge the twine both teams literally took wings as they tore from one end to the other in daring rushes half way through the period tempers began to fray and as a result referee mike rod den dished out six penalties to the of fending players three to each team due to the players overanxiousness only one goal was scored heyd for guelph came through with the coun ter half way through the period while the georgetown team played short- handed guelph seemed to take an edge m the second period with heyd scoring twice while kemshead salted george town s first goal on a pass from rich ardson play continued fast but the teams more or less settled down to good hockey only three penalties being handed out bottling up the guelphites in the final session the local team tied up the score in two swift goals by soloski when the team put on a mass attack to smother the visitors and score from scrambles although the score was tied georgetown contii aed to press the guelph team to their own end when kaiser broke away and with on ly the goalkeeper to beat passed to harrington who drilled home the win nlng goal local fans w ere somewhat cusap pointed in the result but high 1 their praise of the georgetown team with the same

febru ary 23 1906 after 20 founds the de cision and the championship went to tommy there were those who considered burns a joke champion they saw reason why the should accept burns just because he defeated hart who was a champion on jeffries sa so but tommy set out to convince his doubters in a little more than a month after he defeated hart he beat jim o br en in san diego in one round and

ranks he had knocked out peter felix bui long kid cutler jim flynn and bob fite- slmmons the latter feat however not- adding very much to his prestige for freckled bob was at the end of his career and
