Oneman who has followed the county games all through the year -picks . Barriefield, and still another authority informed us that he would place all his money on Wolfe Island. 3 Whichever team romps home the winner, it is a mighty sure thing that it will have "a tough lot of work ahead to cop the title and the honor will be well earned. "Jack" Powell is handling the Barriefield boys and has every confidence in their abili- ties. They have been improving steadily under his training. This game is one that will be uni- " qpe in the respect that all the root- ing will be the real thing. It does @ person good to listen to the sup- porters of the county teams stretch- « ing their lungs for their favorites and brings back the old days when everybody was out yelling for Fron- denacs, and the Kingston lads were trimming the best the province could trot out. - Tomorrow evening at the Jock Harty Arena, commencing at seven o'clock, the last of the City Hockey league finals will be played, when Irishmen (Y.I.C.B.A.) and Civil Ser- $ J vice meet in the senior series and Portsmouth and Frontenacs play in the junior, Irishmen have two goals up on the "Posties" and Frontenacs have the same lead on Portsmouth juniors, so that something interesting will like- ly crop up. The championships are #iot won yet by any means. Several old-timers in hockey, who attended the City League games last * week, declared -that they provided some of the fastest and most interest- ing hockey they have seen this win- ter.
