City League Starts. As the rink opens on December 1st it is the intention of Queen's to assist the City League in starting out on their schedule the first week in { December. This will give them at | Jeast six good weeks in which to play and it will also enable the O.H.A. | coaches to find their material. As the rule stands in the City League at the present time, an O.H.A. player may continue to play with his City | League team and the O.H.A. team as well without danger of being barred by the City League. This is as it should be for the City League is as interested as any other group or in- dividual in Kingston's advancement in hockey. That the intermediate club will be an amalgamated one is assured but an agitation has also been started for the junior O.H.A. team to be amalgamated also. The plan work- ed so well with the intermediates last season that there is little reason to suppose that it would not be a suc- cess with the juniors as well. Had Queen's, R.M.C. and Kingston joined together last season in the junior series, there = would have been no stopping them and it is hoped that those in authority will see the wis- dom of amalgamating the junior O.H.A. club as well as the intermedi- ate. President T. A. Kidd of the King- ston Hockey Club.is very optimistic about the prospects for the season and will call a meeting of the execu- tive within a short time so that plans for the season can be made. There is much work to be done and-it must be done shortly. There is little time to be lost and the executive will start making the necessary arrangements as soon as President Kidd calls them together. The matter of coaching for the in- termediate team is causing consider- able discussion this season. Mr. T. F. Gelley, who coached the team last season, declared that he would not have the time for the position this season. In all probability, W. P. Hughes will be assigned the task of looking after the Kingston team. Mr. Hughes is very popular with the Kingston team and with those who know him in Kingston and as head of the team, the choice would be a most popular one. TORONTO TEAMS SIDE IN WITH VARSITY Toronto, Nov. 17.--Toronto O.H. A. senior teams are up in arms, and it is within the range of possibility that they will play théir games at the Ravina Rink this season and withdraw from the Ontario Associa- tion. Rumors were current in the city that drastic action will be taken if certain requests are not granted, aithough the officials concerned de- clined to give out any information. It is understood that the three local city clubs, Toronto Canoe Club, Parkdale Canoe Club and Osgoode Hall, have asked the O.H.A. heads to reconsider their ruling that the Uni- versity at Toronto seniors must chal- lenge for the Allan Cup through the O.H.A. They have also requested that the city teams be allowed to play their O.H.A. games in Ravina Rink, owing to the fact that St. Patrick's professionals have been granted every Saturday night at the Arena Gardens from Dec. 5th to March 1st. No ultimatum the O.H.A., 'but the clubs are de- sirous that University of Toronto be included in the O.H.A. series, even if the Collegians must stick to their decision to represent the Intercol- legiate Union in the Allan Cup series. University of Toronto officials are of the opinion that the new O.H. A. ruling has practically forced the 1925 Allan Cup runners-up out of the O.H.A. series. i The local clubs concerned canmot gee how they can operate at the From the Kingston end of it, there | De- | ing of quitting the game, Joe Smith | to play hockey | and will appear at left wing with the | man | | turns out for the job but it is doubt- | than the same | ~ FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN The pickers of deadly work. all-stardfootball teams soon will start to get in' their Our hint to all those unfortunates who feel a touch of the picking epidemic coming over them is to immediately name as their all- star selection the entire Queen's team, stick Warren Snyder and Jeff Rus- sell somewhere in the lay-out, and let it go at that. weak spots visible to the naked eye Leadley, Snyder, Russell, Thomas, "Red" McKevey, and the rest.

Now that everything is settled for the present, Queen's are down to work to prepare for the game with Balmy Beach on Saturday next. As the scribes express it, "the survivors will meet Ottawa the next Saturday." There is little doubt in the minds of the local fans, and in fact in the minds of all the fans, with the probable exception of some in Toronto, who are clinging to their last hope survivors will be. for a championship, as to who the -- The fighting Tricolor juniors evened things up with Loyola at Mont- real on Saturday and another game enter the finals. will be played to decide which will Great interest is being shown in the juniors and their progress will be watched by the fans. Some men may think they are ardent football fans but they have to step some to equal a number of the women. About seventy-five per cent. of the telephone calls received on Saturdays by the Whig for the scores of the games, are from the fair sex. Queen's have won enviable glory on the gridiron and now the sup- porters will be looking forward to a hockey championship to crown their athlétic feats. It is reported that there is some fine material at Queen's this year and a strong bid will be made for the senior Intercollegiate title. DS Arena Gardens without suffering heavy financial losses. They believe that if the games are played in the new Ravina Rink, western city fans will support the teams. There is a large population within easy range of the Ravina Rink, and it is likel$ that the fans would welcome the coming of fast O.H.A. teams. In the event that the O.H.A. execu- tive declines to consider these re- quests regarding the use of Ravina Rink and the ruling effecting the University of Toronto team, there is a possibility that the four clubs will form a city league or attempt to be- come affiliated with some other asso- ciation. This is the unspoken threat which may be wielded by the clubs. VARSITY HOCKEY TEAM TO PLAY IN THE STATES Toronto, Nov. 17.--University of Toronto seniors will leave Toronto on Christmas night for their annual hockey invasion of the United States. Games will be played against Boston College, Dartmouth University, Har- vard and probably the Boston AAA. it arrangements can be made with the C.A.H.A. regarding the eligibility of the last named team. The fam- ous Captain George Owen will cap- tain the Boston A.A.A. team. All dates have not been arranged, but three of them are Dec. 26th, Jan. 2nd and Jan. 9th. Three other tilts will take place between the 26th and 9th, and the Harvard team will like- ly play against the locals. Boston fans always turn out in large numbers to see the Blue and White in action, and in order to ac- commodate them the Boston Arena management has set aside three Sat- urday nights for these exhibition fixtures. Beattie Ramsay, former star de- tense man with the University of To- ronto, Granite and Canadian Olympic hockey teams, has left for Princeton University, where he will have charge of 120 hockeyists this com- ing season, Mr. Ramsay, who attend- ed Saturday's McGill-U. of T. foot- ball game, stated that he has no in- tention of ever turning professional. Several clubs in the national League would have paid him thousands of dollars to sign a contract. Hockey has been made a major sport at Princeton, and this winter Ramsay's team will oppose the best intercollegiate sextets in the United States. Some of the games may be played at the Madison Square Gar- dens in New York City. A ---------- Hot for Carson. Montreal, Nov. 17.--Canadiens are taking strong action in the case of Gerald Carson, Grimsby player, whom the Canadiens want to report for practices, but who has so far re- fused to put in an appearance. Leo Dandurand has put the matter in the hands of President Frank Calder, ot the *N.H.L. President Calder will 1 take Carson's case up with W. A. Hewitt, secretary of the C.A-H.A,, In an effort to have Carson report to Canadians. mn THIRD GAME IN KINGSTON nase Loyola and Queen's Juniors Failed to Agree on Battle Ground. The Loyola-Queen's junior Inter- collegiate playoff game will be played in Kingston next Saturday afternoon at the George Richardson Stadium instead of at Brockville on 'Wednes- day, it was definitely announced by J. S. McDonell, secretary of the Ath- letic Board of Control of Queen's University last night. The word cased some surprise as it was ex- pected that the game would not be delayed longer than Wednesday at the outside. The announcement was greeted with pleasure by local fans, who are anxious to see the teams in the final struggle to break the tie that exists between them at the present time. Queen's, after being down two points from the first game, evened the count on the round by winning 14-12 on Saturday at Montreal in overtime. Then the fun of arranging the third game started. Loyola wanted the third game played at Ottawa on Wednesday but Queen's would not stand for that. Queen's suggested that the game be played in Brockville on Wednesday but there was nothing doing in that proposition either. Loyola would not give Queen's any guarantee to go to Montreal next Saturday so Queen's' finally gave in and offered Loyola a guarantee to come here. The fans are delighted that they will have a game here next Saturday. Few will go up to Toronto for the Balmy Beach game and they will De able to go to the stadium, see the game there and be kept in touch with the progress of the game in Toronto. Mr. McDonell has materially reduced the prices for Saturday's play-off game, The grandstand seats will sell at 50c and the bleachers at 25c. ------------------ TRICOLOR SHOULD DEFEAT BEACHES Rugby Squad, However, Tak- ing No Chances and Are Plugging Along Hard.

Montreal, Nov. 17.--Lying side by side on the kitchen floor of their flat, 4632 Park avenue, Rose Goulet and Valeda Goulet, sisters, were found dead Sunday night.
