Capt. J. M. Wilson, Assistant Director of Medical Services for Mi- ltary District No, 3, is hard at work arranging for the appointment of a dozen highly qualified and efficient dentists for the work. There are now six practising dentists through the district and most of these will be brought to the camp if their services can be dispensed with at their pres- ent stations, Besides having to look after the work for 10,000 men at Barriefield Capt. Wilson will also be in charge of some half dozen dentists at Peta- wawa. The final arrangements for the northern camp however have not yet been made, : When the first suggestion of the Canadian Army Dental Corps was made it was strongly "knocked" by those in authority. The very force however of the movement swept all objections away and to-day it is recognized as ome of the most im- portant branches of the service, There is a proposition on hand now and it will undoubtedly soon come into general use to have a dental history sheet similar to the present medical history sheet. This will con- tain every item of work that is put on the men's teeth and when they are put into perfect shape the sheet will go with the attested papers at the battalion headquarters, Berow is the list of names of the medical students of Queen's Univer- sity who attended thé Army Medical Corps qualifying class to qualify as officers in the Canadian Army Medi- cal Corps for service overseas: M.

On Wednesday afternoon the an- nouncement was made that four new depot batteries had been authorized for Kingston. This is taken as an intimation that the four batteries-- (50th, 51st, 52nd and 53rd, which have been training with an ammu- nition column have attained a. high tawawa as the 13th Kingston Ar- tillery Brigade should soon be ready for the great fight at the front, The officers for the four new bat- teries and ammunition column have not been chosen but will be select- ed by headquarters as soon a8 suit- able mén can be picked. No. § Field Company, Canadian Engineers, which wiil be in charge of 'the gigintering work at Barrie- field Camp, now organizing and recruits are being taken om the strength. Already thirty-one have besn secured from the many appiica- tions received. There is great trou- ble in selecting men who will prove suitable. The men in the Engineer- ing Corps must be of the very best type of intelligence and energy. Capt. E. W. Henderson is in com- mand of the company and will be as- sisted by Lieuts. Parrott, Scott and Martin, Sergt. Mayor, C.A.P.C., has return- ed from Belleville where he inspect- ed the pay department of the 80th Battalion, The 146th Battalion minstrel show is making great progress un- der the efficient management of C.Q. M.S, William McFedridge. Those who will take part are working hard every day and on May 12th when the show is produced it should prove a great success, ; The following certificates of quali- | fication have been issued: Sergt. J. T. Reid, P.A.M.C. for staff sergeant; Corpl. M. Sutherland, P.A.M.C., for sergeant, and Pte. A. N. Raven, PA. M.C,, for corporal.

N. Munsie, adjutant School |. of Signalling, is on the sick list. Capt, Wilson, A.D.D.S., has arriv- ed in the city from Belleville, The School of signalling at Bar- riefield camp will have the Queen's University wireless plant for the in- struction of the men of the overseas units who will: be attending. Ow- ing to the fact that flag signalling at the front is seldom if ever used the only other ways are by means of telephone, buzzer or wireless, if the users of it do not receive the con- tents of a German cartridge before being able to make the first letter. For this reason Major D. E, Mundell is particularly fortunate in being able to secure the use of the Queen's outfit for his work. A. J. Emery and H. J.

A school of musketry for officers and N.C.O.'s of the 156th has com- menced at Picton armouries under Captain Swayne. About 150 officers and sergeants from Belleville are at~ tending. Delay is dangerous. Get into uni- form now, Some of you young men who say that you are unfit to go to war will have a hard time explaining to your friends why you are well enough to play baseball and football, It has been decided by the Militia | Council that where Highland cloth- | ing is authorized for issue to units, | | it will consist of one pattern only | and will be of the same material as| the serge clothing now issued to the | C.E.F. It w'll consist of a doublet, trousers and Balmoral or Glengarry cap. No other Highland uniform | will be authorized.

At the pres- ent time but six are Away which is a remarkable showing. The battal- lon on the whole is in splendid con- dition, and ready for moving orders at any moment, Men, is it want of courage that keeps you from enlisting, or the fail- ure to appreciate the seriousness of the situation. The recruit' who had a strong de- sire to escape service, was being ex- amined 'in the eyesight test. The size of the type was increased con- tinually, but it was no use. He couldn't see the words. Then a sea- up his mess-tin, "Can you see that?" he shouted to "Of course I can," he replied, dis- dainfully, "but I'm not quite sure whether it's a fifty-cent piece or a dime!" Despair of examiner! Col. Allard, commander of the 207th, was a well known amateur baseball pitcher around Ottawa a | few years ago. He twirled great | ball for Ottawa College, | Jules Kustus, the former centre fielder of the St. Thomas Canadian League Club and who for two sea- son's was one of the premier slug- gers of the circuit, died at his home in Detroit from tuberculosis. { Sporting News report has it that Artbur Irwin will not continue his/ connection with the Toronto Inter-| national Club as business manager | and that he has been engaged as the | business manager of a new publica- tion to be devoted to golf. The invitation of the Duluth Row- ing Club has bedn received by the Argonauts and Dons, asking mem- bers of those organizations to attend the U. 8. National Regatta in Duluth during August. It ie hardly likely Toronto will send any crews. "Joe" Corbett, brother of ex- heavyweight champion "Jim' Cor- bett and pitcher of the famous Balti- more Orioles of 1897, failed to "come back." He has been released by San Francisco in order to cut the team to the eighteen-player limit, Frank Shaughnessy left Ottawa for, Warren, Pa., yesterday where he will manage the Interstate League Club of that city this season. Shag wili have a team of all-star Canadian Leaguers under him and should have a successful season, though there are more ex-big leaguers in the Inter- state League than in any other minor circuit outside the Class AA. leagues. Dates for the Eastern Canada lawn bowling tourney will be changed this year to conform with the new dates of the Ontario Bowling Association at Niagara. This event will be held the week of July 3rd. - The Eastern will follow the week of July 10th, in Ottawa, and the St. Lawrence tourna- ment will be pulled off the week of July 17th, at Brockville. A Montreal despatch says: It was announced. last night that the Royals had secured the se of &a new second baseman by the name of Ful- ler, trom %he Detroit Club. iler, who is a native Detroiter, went south with the Tigers this season, and 80 good an Impression 'that BE . sinon.an held on to him ui til the last mingyte, He will comb a) World of Sport to the Royals under optional agree- ment: Fuller was with the Ottawa Club last year, and had an excellent Season. He ranked fourth on. the league's batting list, hitting for .320, and he fielded for .944. Christy Mathewson, former main- stay of the Giants' pitching staff, ex- pects to start for the Giants for the first. time this season on Thursday. He will face the Boston Braves at the Polo grounds. Matty has not rounded into shape because of neur- itis in the left shoulder. He has been taking treatment constantly for the ailment since it first bothered him late last season. Friends of Fred Waghorne, the veteran hockey and lacrosse referee, will be glad to learn that he is able to be around again after a siege of sickness lasting over five weeks. Fred was hit by the puck on the shin while refereeing a hockey game two months ago, and blood-poisoning set in. "Wag' says that for twelve years he always carried an accident pollicy, and wore shin guards, but owing to passing up refereeing this year had let the policy lapse. He Was pressed into the game in which he was injured, and did not wear shin guards. - The greatest number of thorough- breds raced in any one year in the United States and Canada was 6,232 in 1905. When the troublés that subsequently beset racing attained their greatest effect, there was a fall- ing off to the 3,641 horses engaged in the racing of 1913. 'That was low water mark since 1900. There has been a slow, but steady, trend up- ward since 1913, with 3,760 horses raced last year. Owing to the estab- 'lishment of new breeding farms and the influx of several hundred horses from abroad,1916 should show nearly 4,000 horses participating in racing. The present tendency is gratifying. At the same time it will be many years befgpre figures of ten years ago will be reached again. The Free Press says: That Ottawa is badly in meed of another athletic park is shown by the demand for dates at the;exhibition nds, the only e park in the . Lane- downe Park is really the only suitable place in the capital for baseball lacrosse and all the el dates element has multiplied since the old Nicholas street stadium was tn good shape. Thére are none too many open lots about the city where con- tests can be pulled off. For so good a sporting town, Ottawa is not very well equipped in this respect, Albert Badoud, welterweight cham- plon of Europe, is the latest foreign- er to invade the United States in quest of a world's title. Badoud re- cently arrived in- New York, having been brought over by Dan McKotrick, and will start his campaign against the Americal welterweights at the Stadium A. C., the management of which has signed Badoud for three contests. Badoud is known throughout Ku- rope as the "Knockout King." He has the most wonderful knockout record of any boxer in the world to- day, He has fought sixty contests, and' has scored forty-five knockouts, giving him a "batting" average of 760 per cent., a record never equalled in the history of the prize ring. Since Badoud's arrival, the Ameri- can colony of promoters, managers, and boxers who have been abroad all predict that Badoud will be a sensa- tion here. He is of the aggressive type, with a terrific punch in either hand. He is the same type of fight- er as the late Stanley Ketchel, and such great judges of boxers as Joe Jeanette, Young Ahearn, Willie Lew- is, Frank Moran, Kid McCoy, George Engle, George Considine and George Munroe are all unanimous in declar- ing that Badoud will be the same sen- sation as was Ketchel. Toronto News: English-speaking athletes in the city of Quebec are do- ing their full duty in these times. A recent list published by the Quebec Chronicle is of the keenest interest. Of the football clubs, 32 men are in khaki. The Quebec Snowshoe Club has sent 41. This number includes Major-General Turner, V.C, D8.0., and Major-General Watson, From the Cricket Club, 30 have gone. Fifteen hockey players have donned the uniform, and three. lacrosse men. From the Lawn Tennis Club 23 have enlisted, from the Ski Club 23, from the Trident Canoe Club 10.
