It will be the last chance for the fans to see a game here this winter at the Arena, ac- cording to Secretary J. 8. McDonell's announcement. ET The Circle Six Hockey Club held a practice on Monday night at the Arena after the County League games and they showed great form in their workout. The team will be strengthened up for their tilt with the Cadets, who have also been getting in some good practice work and the game should be a big attraction. THE JUNIOR GAME. Ten minutes of over-time play was required to settle the argument in the second game of the evening be- tween Verona and Sunbury juniors, which the latter won, after a hard fight by the score of 2-1. The Sun- bury goal-tender cam be thanked for his wonderful work in keeping Ver- ona out of the winning column for it was only the good work of his that kept Verona out, especially in the first ten minutes of the second per- fod. Whitty was the star of the The county fans were out in large numbers at the Arena last night for the Sunbury-Verona clash and they certainly made themselves heard. When it comes to enthusiasm, the County fan has it over the average city fan like a tent. ~~ THE SENIOR GAME. Shortly after eight o'clock Refered J08 Smith called the teams to the J eentre and Verona and Sunbury aed in to decide which would | the championship for the ensu- | If year. Verona has held the Bonor | four years hand running and the | be for annual competition among the players of the N.H.L. teams. The same jury of sporting editors which selects the winner of the Hart Trophy will decide which player during the season has set the best example of clean and effective hoc- key in the N.H.L. scheduled matches. During the season just passed, Kingston got one championship and ran a good second to another. Next season it is hoped to have two championships at least and as many more as can be secured. win of the Sunbury team last night | .

He showed great stickhandling and was always in the game while O. Rey- nolds was alsq in great form. G. Neddow, in the nets for Sunbury played great hockey while Haggerty at centre showed himself to be no mean player. ) Deline turned id a fine performance and checked well. First Period. The first period of play was very close and Sunbury scored the only goal of the frame on a neat shot. The Verona team worked hard and showed that they were neither out- played nor outclassed and the 'two teams battled it out for the honors on pretty even terms. Both goalies had plenty to do and though Sun- bury had the edge, the Verona lads were dangerous at all times. Second Period. The second period was productive of the fastest hockey of the game. The players showed that they knew plenty about back-checking and team play and the individual rushes were by no means slow. The count was evened in this frame and when the teams went into the third period there was determination set in the minds of both. ---- Third Period. The last period was fast and there was plenty of back-checking. Whitty got in some of his best work and time after time 'he worked his way through but was beaten by Neddow in the Sunbury nets. The play changed from end to end repeatedly but the count could not be broken and went into overtime. Sunbury scored the winning goal in the first five minutes of over-time and held their opponents off in the second five minutes, winning out by 2-1. For Verona C. Reynolds, Whitty and Deline were outstanding and for Sunbury, Haffner, Campbell, Hag- gerty and G. Neddow starred. The teams were: Sunbury--Goal, G. Neddow; de- fence, Campbell, Hafrner; centre, Haggerty; wings, Duison, R. Ned- dow; subs., Hughes, Jackson. Verona--Goal, Mills; defence, C.

Another cause of the success from skating was the fact that nothing had to be paid out tor bands for skating, the new electric organ at the Arena doing the musical honors quite well, it having found great favor with the skaters. Hockey Revived. As for hockey, everyone knows that the hockey excitement in King- ston during the past winter was higher than it has been for years and the large crowds that filled the have turned out for games during the past two or three years, with the exception of odd occasions. Every senior class game has been a big drawing card during the season and the rink, instead of losing money on the hockey has made money. ---- Artificial Ice Plant. There was a feature about the Arena that must not be passed un- mentioned. With the closing of the rink skaters and hockeyists alike have enjoyed their first straight sea- son on the ice without a break due to mild weather. The innovation of artificial ice in the local rink has been a great success and those who advocated artificial ice in the first place, are not sorry now that they did and the Queen's authorities, who own the rink and put the plant in, are not sorry either. There were games on the schedule that would not have been played yet had it not been for the artificial 1ce plant in the Arena and it can be truthfully said now, at the approach of the first sea- son's trial of it, that the plant has proved highly successful and Queen's made no mistake when they, in their wisdom, put it into the rink. A Courteous Staff. The affairs of the Arena have been well handled by Secretary J. S. Mec- Donell, Mr. Charles Hicks and Man- ager Bliss Barnum and during the present season it has been noted that the courtesy extended to pat- rons of the rink has been outstand- ing and remarked upon on more than one occasion. The rink officials trom the manager 'down, have been most earnest in their work and ney have shown the greatest of courtesy to every patron of the rink during the season and that is something for which every concern strives to be noted. It is the earnest wish of every skater and hockey fan that the | seasons to come will be every bit as ful in every way as thé past one has been.

As to the truth or untruth of his statements we will say nothing. Near as we can figure it the O.H.A. is a body formed to govern the sport and not to act as no detective agency; and if a player signs the amateur declaration it is a matter between him and his own conscience, if any, and it is not up to the authorities to doubt his state- ment unless somebody brings some definite charge against him. "So if anybody has anything against a player he should declare hisself at headquarters, instead of making a lot of lurid statements at a banquet. 'Speaking personal, we don't think that every single solitary player in amateur ranks would seream for his nurse if somebody was to try and crowd a little jack on him; but we would of paid a whole lot more at- tention to the latest outburst if it had been made a aay or two be- fore Niagara Falls hung crape on the doors of Stratford, instead of im- mediately afterwards.

Ottawa, March 10.--Desiring to raise the standard of professional hockey, Lady Byng of Vimy pro- poses to present a challenge cup to the National Hockey League, to Be held each year by the cleanest and most effective player in the league. In a letter to Frank Calder, presi- dent of the National Hockey Leagué, the wife of the Governor-General says: "Feeling a great desire to help your effort to 'clean up hockey' and eliminate the needless rough play that at present is a threat to the national game, and also to leave a tangible record of the enjoyment I personally have had from the game during our sojourn in Canada, [ am writing to ask it you will let me offer a challenge cup for the man on any team in the National Hockey League who, while being Shorvaguly effective, is also a thorughly player. ; "I am convinced that the public desires good sport, not the injuring of 'players, and if, by donating this challenge cup, I can in any way help towards this end, it will sive me a great deal of pleasure.
