There are no secrets on the Cana- dian Soo hockey team or among their followers concerning the Allan Cup. The Soo expects to win the Canadian championship, and mod- estly says so. But, apparently, the Soo enthusiasts have reckoned with- out Brandon. The Manitoba town now steps to the front to say that tt has all of last season's players and enough highclass newcomers to make ils team unbeatable. And Brandon is out after the Soo, which is no secret in Brandon. Next!-- Globe. ny dear to the Heart of all Men ASEAN LF vray, ra, "w-, Cran, v, Yong, NN ; 213 Princess Street.

Toronto Telegram is determined to discredit Kingston teams in every possible way, even though they cleaned up everything in Canada in their respective classes. Queen's went through the season without a defeat. R.M.C. lost but one game and that by a single point to Queen's intermediates.
