Salt Lake Want To Row Why. f A supreme court justice has ruled that a boxer who participates as a club to which "members" pay "dues" is guilty of violating the new statute. In his opinion, the justice says: "If there is no admission fee, no offence is committed. If there is a fee then it is so nearly a part of the exhibition as to render the partici- pants amenable to the penalty pre- scribed." Carl Morris and Jack Dempsey in- dulged in a glove fight at the'Queens- berry club in Buffalo last Monday night. They were paid for their ser- vices and a large crowd of "members" paid "dueg'-to see the scrap. In view of the latest supreme court ruling, which covers admission fees, New York boxing club promoters are won- dering how long the fight game will be permitted to thrivé in Buffalo without interference by the authori- ties. : Skating Championship. Arrangements have been complet- ed for a world's championship skat- ing meet at Saranac Lake, N.Y., Feb- ruary 7th and 8th, between Edmund Lamy, of Saranac Lake, and Bobby McLean, of Chicagc. Lamy is the present holder of the champion- ships, but McLean claims it through his recent victory over Oscar Mathie- son. Lamy tried out with the Ottawa hockey team several winters ago, but did not make a favorable im- pression, He also played baseball with London in the Canadian League. To Lead Boston Red Sox. Edward Grant Barrow, the for- mer International League leader, has been appointed to lead the Boston Red Sox at a salary of $10,000 per year. Barrow, who was practically "fired" from the International Lea- gue presidency at a salary of $7,500 per year, will now recive $2,500 more than he did in his former posi- tion. Barrow is recognized as one of the great men of baseball, and is said to be in line for the Presidency of the American League. New York Racing Dates, New York racing dates will not be announced until August Belmont, president of the Jockey Club, re- turns from Europe, where he is en- gaged in Red Cross work. Although one of the directors of the club was authorized to act as president dur- ing Belmont's absence, the selec- tion of the racing dates will be de- cided later. {It is probably that the season will open before May 1st and extend until about October 15th. He Liked the Quiet. During the time that Mr. Asquith was Prime Minister of England he hever played golf excepting in pri- vate. Early in the morning he would journey to his favorite course, make a round of the links and de- part without even the local residents knowing that the Prime Minister had been disporting himself on their common. In other words, .he liked to foozle in peace and quietude. White Sox Sign Pitcher.

He Is a six-foot one-inch southpaw,a French- Canadian, now "lying: in Lowell, Mass, ® Play for Red Cross.

KING'S PLATE RACE | ON VICTORIA DAY The Ontario Jockey Club Gives $3,000 For Race Without Betting. Though racing in general has been suspended in Canada since July last, there will be no break in the continu ous running of the King's Plate, the oldest fixture on the American con- tinent, That was decided yesterday | hen the Ontario Jockey Club direc-| tors granted the use of Woodbine to the Toronto Hunt for an bpen-air horse show on May 24th and 25th, and to permit the running of the King's Plate, The purse of $3.000 in added money and the fifty guineas donated by His Majesty will be giv- en by the Ontario Jockey Club, which 'will receive mo revenue of any kind in return for the disbursement. No other races than the Plate will be allowed at thé show, nor will bet- ting be in any way sanctioned or per- mitted on the premises, The number of Province-bred two- year-olds in training last season U=- fore the suspension of racing gives practical assurance that there will be a good field for the Guineas, On account of the absence of opportuni- ty at home a number of youngsters were taken across the border last au- tumn, and would thus be disqualified had not provision been made that all such would retain their eligibility if registered with the Ontario Jockey Clug for export under the condition of affairs, Patrick A Great Player, Lester Patrick has been the Van- couver and Portland jinx in over- time battles this season. Twice the Seattle pilot, who ranks as probably the best hockey leader in the game to-day, has hopped into the fray with his team behind in the scoring and on both occasions he has been re- sponsible for the pass which brought victory to the league leaders, Against Portland New Year's Day he gave Bernie Morris the pass that netted Seattle the lone goal in eighty min- utes of play, and the other night he turned the same trick and Morris' subsequent shot netted the Mets their wining coiinter in twenty-three min- utes, overtime against Vancouver. Patrick is one of the greatest players in the game to-day and *gets action out of the players when others Tail. Curling at Perth.
