Please form a line and do not crowd. Gt Many - people are hoping that George Walker and Stanislaus Zby- sko will go to the mat for a while in Wednesday's performance. They would like to compare them. Queen's Jock Harty Arena was sought for the appearance of Demp- sey and his companions 'but was refused on the ground that no pro- fessionals were allowed to compete or exhibit there. That may be a good reason but it is poor co-opera- tion with the people of the city. Printers did not play their gamo | with Civil Service last night. Teams that enter the league in the begin- | ning of the year and fail to fulfill their scheduled games should be censured. The Bankers set an ex- ample last year that could well be followed.

Gariepy has been away for some weeks pitching In Victoriaville and recently struck out twenty-two men in a game in the town.

At a meeting ofthe Western Divi- sion of the Canadian Canoe Associa- tion, held at the Toronto Canoe Club. It was decided to hold the trials for the Canadian championships on July 28th on a new course, known as the Turning Basin, at the east end of Toronto Bay. This course is one mile and a half long, about 500 feet wide and has a depth of about 30 feet and is considered by canoe- ing experts to be an 'deal course for a regatta.
