It was Kingston's i6cking that got under Belleville's and whatever chance they had of playing together, was spoiled by ie rapid-fire back-checking of Cap- EB 1alh Joe Smith and his white-sweat- ered brethren. After the first period it could be #asily seen that the visitors, who game with only three regulars, were D match for the Kingston crew and th of the interest was taken out the contest.

Joe is and the wonder of the hoc- : He can, unlike many men in the game, leave his Nn and roam to other parts and have full control of the man he' s ng. Where he gets the energy nobody can tell but he has it gor t ve oars and shows it every minjte of the play. Bill Hargraft was strong on his back-checking last night and as an offengive player he was equally as good. Hargraft never gworked harder than he did last night and turned in a beautiful game. Watts was good while Lawlor" aud Don- nelly filled in well. Try though he might, Reynolds could not score last might. Time after time hg made beautiful rushes but simply could not register a tally. His work on the defence, how- ever, and his rushes, were features of the game. Rooney turned in a very creditable performance and Rogers was never better. Belleville showed a promising man man in Hibbard and his stick work was good to watch. Weir scored the lone tally for the visitofs and stays ed right with the play all the time. Green and Finkle, of course, shone out for their team while Lloyd in goal made a great impression on the fans but it must be admitted that the locals were shooting right at his pads many times instead of getting the corners of the net. First Period. In the first period Kingston notch- ed five counters. Rooney wag the first to register on a rush up the sidé' and shooting from half why. Hargraft and Smith combined for the next goal, Hargraft doing the trick. Taking a pass from Har- graft, Smith made it three to noth- ing and Watts scored for the fourth counter on a pass from Smith, Har- graft and Watts played a nice com-~ bination for the fifth goal, Watts chalking up. Second Period. In the second period Hargraft, fol- lowing in on Joe Smith's rush and shot, registered counter, No. 6. Roy Reynolds, after trying hard to score Yushed the length of the ice, circled the Belleville goal and passed ouf to the waiting Smith for the seventh goal. Hargraft and Smith combined and Joe scored the eighth. Third Period. In the last period the hockey was better and Belleville showed more fight. Watts and Hargraft again combined and the latter counted the ninth, Weir, on a pretty rush and ehot, scored Belleville's lome tally, getting the glad hand from the crowd. Rooney, Hargraft and Rey- nolds broke clear away and Rooney scored the tenth goal. Joe Smith ended the scoring when he took the puck around the Belleville goal, and passed to Hargraft, who slipped the rubber past Lloyd. The teams were: Kingston--Goal, Rogers: defence, Rooney, Reynolds; centre, Watts; wings, Smith, Hargraft; subs., Law- lor, Donnelly, Brooks.

Brockville, Feb, 38.--Circle-Six were six goals down when the first game of the play-off for the cham- plonship of group one, junior O.H.A. finished here last might, Brockville scoring seven goals in all, starting out with three in the first period and netting two counters in each of the last frames. The wide margin gath, ered in by the locals nicely decided the merits of the two teams on the night's play, Though Circle-Six, especially thelr! brilliant player, Kirby, put up a splendid struggle, they were outglassed by the locals who played for all they were worth and ran their total up as far as pos- sible in order to be sure of a work- ing majority of goals when the teams take the ice at Kingston to- morrow night for the final game. - combination in the first Joripd Sas that had their opponents dased, Brock- Ya started the scoring five minutes the start when Henry Garand | yp patted in Kennedy's rebound at the end of a combined play.

It #8 a well-known fact that the hockey in the northern country hes gone down hill in the last couple of years and the plain facts are just beginning This Soo team is doing a great deal of running around the country, for "amateurs," for sure, as was pointéd out by a northern despatch. last week. One wonders when the members of the team do any work, or, if they ever do any. Kingston certainly cannot be accused of having any professionals on' its roster. The fact thet Clarence Gibson went away from here at this stage of the game, shows conclusively that there are no salaried players down here. Kingston team is a pure out amd out amateur team from the word go, as fer as is knowm, and the writer, for one, knows ail the players pretty well, When it comes 0 making ioe, Arena don't have to take their hats off to anybody. season hes been played om a perfect sheet of ice.

MclInrue broke into the scoring column half way through the his career netted two more in the last frame. Kennedy completed the scoring in the first session and short- 1y after the start of the second Sheri- dan rushed for a pretty goal. Melts, Circle-Six defence made a spectacu- lar rush right after and landed his team's only goal. Kennedy put the locals four goals in the lead after working through the Kingston de- fence on a solo flight. The pace set by the locals was too much for the visitors with the ex- ception of Kirby who was in on every play. The blonde youth was second to none on the ice and though close- ly watched at all times managed to break through on more than one oc- casion for hard tries. McInrue and Kennedy were the outstanding stars for Brockville on the offensive while Sheridan and Woodcock were a hard pair to pass on the defence. "Nip" Dwan, of Toronto, was in charge of the game and handed out six penal- ties in all, Woodcock drawing three, All were for minor pffences and the game was cleanly played, The teams were as follows: Brockville -- McMahon, goal; Sheridan, Woodcock, + defence; H.

The first trials have been more than satisfactory and the final trials to- night are expected to prove of even greater interest to the followers of the ring. Billie Hughes, who has been eduching the boxing team states that he has been more than pleased at the way his charges have been hand- ling the gloves. The work of Howard and several others has been out- standing and the men have shown a wonderful improvement over their past performances. The aspirants to the college team have been working more faithfully for regular places than they have ever done before and Coach Billie Hughes is confident that his proteges can gtand the go- ing tonight. He stated to-day that he thought the preliminaries tonight would be better than any ever held previously on account of the way the boys have worked in the first trials. The price of admission is low for this ring attraction tonight and the boys are out to show the fans that Queen's has some real good material to send against Varsity and McGill in the big assault this year, Open Till May. Los Angeles, Calif., Feb. 3.--Jack Dempsey, world's champion heavy- weight boxing champion, qualified earlier stories of his immediate re- tirement from the ring with the statement that he would probably quit fighting about May 20th.

Tomorrow night the hockey © at- traction: at the Arena will be the Circle-8ix-Brockville game and de- spite the fact that the local kids were beaten by a 7-1 score in Brock- ville, there will be a big crowd on hand to see the juniors in action. The Circle-8ix kids are not one whit discouraged by their trimming in rockville and as one of the boys Stated when he arrived back with the team, "when this outfit has an off night, it has it right and believe me, we had our off night in Brock- vill last night and we have it out of our system and we can beat that same team right here on our own ice tomorrow night." That's the spirit the juniors are going into the game with tomorrow night, There's many a team went into a home and home game in a great deal worse fix than that and still came through. There is a con fidence among the players that they can more than reverse matters to- morrow night. Brockville, it is said, played away over their heads and couldn't play the same brand of hoe- key again in ten years, The Easterners, however, come here confident. will That's one thing certain and perhaps they may } be a bit too confident. Many a team has lost a good lead through that very same thing. However, the teams will be on deck tomorrow night to do their stuff and those who miss this engagement, will certainly miss something real in the junior hockey line, It is expected that both teams will put up a strong fight, the one to hold the lead and the other to break it down. The teams wily very likely be: Kingston--Goal, Taugher; de- fence, Melts, Collins; centre, Kirby; wings, Muchmore, Joyce; subs., Smith, Lovett or Compeau.
