Momsen Bra SE HERE SATURDAY One of Fastest Intermediate Teams in Province to Meet Kingston. On Saturday afternoon another exhibition baseball game will be of- fered to the bascball fans as a warm- er up for the senior season when the Tweed team will display its wares in competition with the Kingston sen- foi" C.0.B.L. squad at the cricket field. The Tweed team is entered in the intermediate section of the 0.B.A.A. "with the Trent Valley League but is so that last year it took several of the supposedly crack senior teams into damp. It has been built up oare- fully of good material and can give & good account of fself in almost any class. \ The local team should have an- other practise or two before Saturday if the present weather takes a slant to being suitable and with this an * .

It is not known as yet what the Jocal lineup will be though the news has flashed aroumd the city that Herb. Teeple has signed a senior certificate and several others have also attached their John Henry's w the little documents which say that they will play for the Kingston team of the senior Central Ontario Base- hail League. The seniors did not put it over the Hussars last Saturday to the degre: the score: indicated and their pitch- ing supremacy was largely the cause of what edge they did have. Ir Tweed should happen to be fairly sirong on the mound it will thus put all the more interest in the game. And saz--before we leave.

It is tentatively arranged by the 4th Hussars of the local senior city league, that Gananoque Orphans o! the County League, play them an exhibition game here on Wednesday evening next. With some bolstering of their hurlers the Hussars are go- ing to be a fast little team and the ability of the Orphans is well known, as they played two or three nice games here last season. The Gana- noque team has joined up' with the County League and is waiting for the schedule to he drawn. Meanwhile this match will be a good workout for both teams and an excellent pre- paration for the opening game of the Hussars on the nineteenth. 3 OO "HE DAILY BRI SPORTING Taking your eye off the ball !s a fine thing for your opponent's goif' record. --Ottawa Citizen.

Yesterday's sudden change to colder weather will be a bad thing for those arms which were beginning to loosen up with daily practise. But better now than right after the sea- son started. The officers of the City League claim that they will publish the names of any spectators who try to make away with baseballs during games. The City League has a heavy financial problem to face and very little income and it's a poor sport who wouid rob them in this way.

' id -- According to reports from Chi- cago, Roger 'Bresnahan, of Toledo, end W. C. Smith, of Indianapolis, have appealed to President Hickey, of the American Association, request- ipg the league head to take steps looking to a modification of the atti- tude on the draft. Toth these clubs need material, and both want ma- terial from the Giants. Catcher John D. Anderson, who 'was with the Giants this year in the South, has been secured by Toledo from the Beaumont Club of ths Texas League. Pitcher Holborrow, who twirled one game for the Leafs in 1920 and then went home, has' been heard from. He wants a trial with the Toronto Club. Eddie Holly, the former Torocuto player, and now scout for the Bos- ton Red Sox, umpired the Cincinnati- Buffalo game at Buffalo on Monday. JUNIOR GAME OFF. Threatening Sky and Poor Condition of the Ground. The junior game scheduled for last night between Midgets and Cir- cle-Six did not materialize. The rains of the night before and the morning put the grounds in pretty bad shape and the cold weather and threatening skies would have made the match a dull and dreary affair for both players and those spec- - On Friday evening Circle-Six and Billicrests take the field and on Satur- day afternoon the Midgets and Park Nine will battle for the honors.

Four stakes to be renewed at Blue Bonnets in the course of the Spring race meeting of the Montreal Jockav Club that will begin June 7th, to run through the 14th, will close Monday, May 14th. i The stakes are the Kindergarten, $2,600 added, for 2 yeyr olds, five furlongs; Windsor Hotel Cup, $5,000 added, a handicap of one mile and a furlong for 3 year olds and over; Connaught Oup, $2,500 added, a handicap of one mile and a quarter for 3 year olds and over; and Prince of Wales Stéeplechase, $2,500 add- ed. a handicap of about two miles for 4 year olds and over. Follow- ing the precedent of Maryland rac- ing the Montreal Jockey Club will {charge no entrance fee in any stake. [Bu there will be starting fee of $25 leach in the Kindergarten, Connaught Cup and Prince of Wales Steeple- vee and one of $50 in the Windsor Hotel Cup. The operation of this scheme has in the course of the last few years greatly lengthened the entry lists of Maryland stake races iand vastly improved the quality of the sport at Blavre de Grace, Bowie and Pimlico. Racing Associations in Canada are taxed more heavily by the Dominion and Provincial governments than [racing associations in the states are taxed, when they are taxed at all. [Nevertheless the values of the Mont- real Jockey Clubs stakes to be re- {newed this year will not be lorvered. They will be up to the standards of last season. There will be a steeple- chase every day at Blue Bonnets with $1,200 to $1,500 added. Handi- caps for flat runners will have simi- lar values. The M. J. C. races will be run over the only course in Can- ada that is one mile and a quarter around and equipped with a back- stretch extension that permits the running of races of seven furlongs, seven furlongs and a half and one {mile around one turn.
