"Flat" Walsh, the former goal ten: der for the Kingston team, .is now guarding the nets for the Soo team, and is playing a great game. Speak- ing about the recent game with the Soo, the Sudbury News has the fol- lowing; "It Was the superb goal-tending of "Flat" 'Walsh, for the Soo, which was responsible for the victory of the visitors. Time and time again he coolly turned aside the well directed long distance shots of the locals, and repeatedly blocked rushes by Shorty Green and Red Green. right into the mouth of the nets. His exhibition of what is real goal tending was little short of marvellous, and while the few more put through in that trying last period, they could not but ad- tuire the coolness and resourcefulness oi the big Kingston goaler." 4° Dr. Taylor To Speak, The Canadian Club, St. Thomas, will entertain on Jan, 28th, one of Canada's outstanding educationalists in the person of Dr, Bruce Taylor, Prineipal of Queen's University, says the Joursal-Times.
