When Varsity eliminated Park- dale, the fans thought that the chances of a local team figuring in the Allan Cup games had disappear- ed, but owing to the representations of the Intercollegiate Union, Varsity chose to play through from the col- lege league this season, and may duplicate their feat of five years ago when they came back and de- feated Sudbury after having been previously defeated in the O.H.A. race. The students, however, will not be able to enter the next round without a real fight, as it is to the credit of the Ottawa Valley champions that they have provided the O.H.A. with the most strenuous contention ever since they have been represented in the Allan Cup elimination series. Incidentally it was the Cliffsides of Ottawa who back in 1908 were the original holders of the famous trophy. The Montaguards and St. Patricks have both done their best to put the capital city on the ama- teur hockey map, and this wihter the amateur race has evoked more interest than 'the work of the once- famous Senators. Three years ago Montaguards and the following sea- son the St. Pats extended the Gran- pites to the limit to win, while last year they looked to be at their best to capture the series on their visit to the capital, Sid 5 Can't Take It Easy. Despite the fact that Varsity carry a four-goal lead into Tuesday night's game at the Arena, the blue and white ean afford to take no chances with the easterners, as many fans casion the Monties came from be- hind and almost wiped out a six- goal lead that the Granites had se- cured. Duggan, the star of the Montaguard forward line, is & player much sought after by the pros. -------- First Montreal City Team. Thursday night will be an epoch making event in the history of the local arenas, as it will be the first occasion that the Quebec champion- ship will be represented at the Mutual street assembly by a Mont- real city team, and the Victorias promise to make the occasion an in- teresting one. 'At the beginning of the season, when it appeared that Farkdale might make a clean sweep, the paddlers visited the Bastern me- tropolis and did well to hold the Vies THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG on the real strength of the Montreal team. -- Meet O.H.A. Champs Thursday. The Victorias will go up against Niagara Falls in Montreal on Tuesday and in the return game here Thursday, and tne O.H.A. will have a worthy champion no matter which team is their representative. Grimsby provided the sensation of a decade by thelr victory over the Soo and by their good showing against the Falls demonstrated that their win was no flasn in the pan. That the margin of superiority be- tween. the best in the intermediate ranks and that of the senior O.H.A. is practically negligible is being de- monstrated this year as never be- fore. -- ; Hard Grind for Falls. The long hard grind that the Falls team experienced fn their double playing schedule may tell against them as they enter tne final dash. With twenty-five games under their belts in the regular O.H.A. race as well as six exhibition games, the Big Roar team have doubtless encount- ered more competition than any of their rivals. Big Game for Saturday. On Saturday night the winners of the Intercollegiate-Ottawa Valley and Quebec-Ontario play-offs play their final game and the battle will provide a real thrill for the fans, particularly if it should bring the Falls and Varsity together. Includ- ing their O.H.A. and Intercdllegiate games, together with their tour of the United States, the students have had an itinerary that almost equals that of the senior O.H.A. champs. Juniors Here Wednesday. For the first time in four years Sudbury have won a championship and they will send down a big dele- gation when their cubs invade the Arena on Wednesday to play the O.H.A. junior champions in the first game of their O.H.A. Memorial Cup elimination series. The northerners have had to hoe as hard a row as the O.H.A. cham- pions, only winning the champion- ship from Cobalt in the last few min- utes of the final game. If they sare to duplicate the performance of their predecessors in other years they will give the title holders of the older or- ganization the hardest battle that they have received. Aura Lee have proved themselves real champions and will doubtless receive a lot of support in their remaining games, rei Brown will be very smart for spring, but the rage may die out be- fore summer since brown is a color that always looks warm, v maim GENERAL FROM THE OUISIDE LODXING IN and "This is the real long and short of it," remarked a fan at the game on Saturday night when he became aware of the fact that Varsity were near- ly all tall and thin, while McGill were short and stocky. er The fans were unable to understand how McGill R.M.C. in Montreal. could have defeated The Red and White from the Canadian metropolis did not look nearly as good a team as the one from Navy B ay, A few fans from Montreal and Toronto accompanied their respective teams to the city for the game here on Saturday night and made them- selves heard at times. a-- Now fans, you have a chance on Wednesday night to help in a worthy cause. Go to it, ssa All roads lead to the Arena to-night where the county game is to be played. senior final There will be plenty of action for the fans and a big crowd will doubtless be present for the fun. a The New York boxing commission has Dempsey and the title-holder will have again or he will cease to be the mighty The victory of the Grimsby Peaéh Falls by the score of 4-3 was Just a shade too short of the mark. called a showdown on Mr. John to get busy and don the gloves man of the squared circle.

Those fans, who have not already secured their paste-boards for the game on Wednesday night at the Arena between the R.M.C. Juniors and the Circle Six Club had better do so as the sale is reported to be going fairly good ana a big crowd is looked for. The game is for a very worthy. cause, to pay the ex- penses of a hockey player, who was injured while helping to provide hockey for the hockey fans of the city and no doubt the fans will re- spond to the appeal that has been sent out. The ticket-sellers Féport that the sporting public have shown a keen interest in the cause and have displayed a willingness to help out and the hopes of those in charge of the event are quite high and it is expected that a substantial sum will Be realized to help defray the ex- penses ot Buster" Hartley. The action of the R.M.C. team in taking part in this game is another demon- stration of the sportsmanship of Professor Gelley and his players. The Cadets did not play in the same league with Circle Six nor did they have any conmection with that club but tiey willingly offered their ser- vices for the cause and their action has drawn forth once more the high commendation of the sporting fans of Kingston. To Queen's also must 80 credit for the .Circle Six Club will have a couple of their players while the Queen's Board of Control will do something good in the matter of gate receipts. The two teams will be strengthen- ed for the battle ana a good fast game is assured the fans. It may be the last bit of hockey of the sea-~ son and the hockey fans had better hop up and see it but if they can- not get there, they should help' along the good work by at least buying a ticket, whether it will be used or not. % OUT OUR WAY, Te will remember how on a similar oe-| By Williams Cedar Shingles are in big demand yet.
