LATEST LOCAL WEST POINT TEAM PLAY RM... HERE Local Cadets Quickly Round- Ing-into 8hape--Play ' Queen's Saturday. The R.M.C. ' hockey teams « been getting right down to business lately and are fast rounding into shape for their games against Queen's. The Juniors meet Queen's Third on Saturday night after the K.C.1-Regiopolis game. This will open the Junior series. Thera will be quite a few mew faces on the R.M.C. lineups this | season. Gyles, a young Vancouver player, Tremaine, from Ashbury Col- lege, Osler, from T.C.8., Pannell, , from Calgary, all are promising play- ' ers on the junior team. Something new for the hockey fans will be the game against West Point which has been definitely settled for the 16th of February. | Last year the Cadets made the trip t0 West Point and won their game against the United States Military Academy Cadets; this year the In- ternational game is to take place at Queen's Arena. Bay Marchand, well-known in Kingston hockey circles, is coaching the West Pointers and writes that he will bave an excellent team to put into the game here. It will he well worth watching, for this game will be the first that the U.S.M.A. will have played on Canadian ground. ' Carr-Harris, B. G., who had to uh- Alergo an operation at the beginning of the season, is in shape again. TO-MORROW Tomorrow evening at the Jock 'Harty Arena the third and last of the intermediate O.H.A. doubleheaders will hold the bills and a fine svening's entertainment is' prom- ised. The local fans have 'not seen Cornwall and Queen's in action and, as the teams, on the season's showing, are fairly evenly , matched, their battle should be a good one, Everything possible will be done by the management of the Arena to make the evening a good one for patrons and the fans should support this bill to the Mmit. Frontenacs and Queen's have both been forced to give very heavy guar- tedes to the visiting teams and I need a good house to carry them gh. An intermediate double- r of any sort Is an attrac!'"n would pack the house In almost ! 'other city in Ontario, Both local intermediate teams have tried to give the fans what they wanted this year. A Kingston inter- Mediate team was wanted and the 1ittle band of players gave it to them. A certain style of hockey was called for by the fans and the Queen's in- termediates gave it to them--and gave them plenty. Now it is up to "the fans to see the boys through the season and to. give them every en- pouragement and support. A good sized crowd does more to ESTABLISHED 1871.

McKay, sons of George B. Me- { Kay, who was at one time the man- | ager of the Bank of Toronto here and 'was later transferred to Kiteh- ener. ! George McKay wag no mean hoc- | key player himself in his day. He | played for Queen's University here and with the Bank of Toronto team of Toronto and the old champion Wellingtons, also of Toronto. George B., seemed to have a happy faculty of playing with winning teams. Now we see by the Kitchener News Record that Jack, the little tot of a few years ago, has become quite a hefty young fellow of 140 pounds and, although only seventeen years old in December, is a regular defense man with the Kitchener junior O. H. A. team and getting better all the time. In the Kitchener-Guelph final game in Guelph on Saturday evening last he wag a participant in two of the five goals which gave his team a five-two victory and the lead of the group.. The first and second teams play off and Stratford Midgets and Kitchener were to fight it out. Those who remember . Jack and Don., the two fair-haired youngsters, will be mightily surprised to hear of the rapid advancement of Jack in the hockey world and also will be pleas- ed to hear that they are following in their father's footsteps. Don. is rapidly climbing to the front also and is playing with his school team.

John McGraw has selected three of | the ripest plums in the minor league | orchard to bolster. up hi pitching staff of the 1924 National league campaign. The signing of Harry Baldwin of Newark, Wayland Dean of Louis- | ville and Joe Bradshaw of To'edo, all leading minor league twirlers, js a | fulfillment of Johp McGraw's pro- mise to overhaul the gears in his pitching department following its disastrous collapse in the 1923 world's series. Spurred on by Cincinnati's activi- ties-in bolstering up fits twirling | staff. McGraw has combed his | saurces of supply; supplanting age | with youth Wherever possible and sacrificing present ability for future promise. The release of "Long John Scott | from Giant pitching circles was one | of McGraw's.gther steps in rejuve- nating his, stall. There is a strong possibility that two or three of the other Giant veterans may find them- selves on waiver list. i It appears certain now that Arthur Nehf, Hugh McQuillan and Jack | Bentley will survive the spring prun- | ing and possibly "Rosy" Ryan and | Johnny Watston, but the latter two will have to produce, McGraw as- serts. { Clinton Blume, the former Col- Speedy infielder of St. Patrick's amateurs, Toronto, will get a tryout with the Baltimore International Club this Season, | and is expected to make good. | FROM TRE OUTSIDE---LOOKING IN. | Local fans are getting rather impatient to see the fast Circle-Six jugior O.H.A, team in action once more and will weicome the next game of the youngsters. They have been practising faithfully and have high hopes of capturing the local! group honors. Canadian hockey fans should not forget--when reading the scores | of Olympic hockey =atches--that hockey is a comparatively strange game | to many of the competing nations and that Canada, were she entered in| some of their sports, would probably be as badly outclassed. For instance, how many Canadian javelin throwers have we ? But we are here to say that it will be a grand and glorious feeling if Bill Hewitt's crowd can hand out a stiff licking to the hordes of Haddock, otherwise known as the U.S. Olympic team. - From the look of the weather this winter ~ think that it might have been wiser had the curlers this season confined their activities to the quoits game which started last fall. It would Have saved a lot of labor trying to make rinks and would have insured sport every night in the week. i J Whereupon we can Imagine several gentlemen of Scotch descent snorting in disgust at such a suggestion--better one game of the "roarin' sport" than a dozen games of quoits, { Many boxing fans would like to see another contest between Gardiner and Tkachyk before either of the boys is sent to represent Queen's in the Intercollegiate assault. The bout of the other evening was hardly decisive enough to be fair to either of them.
