Sinn TORONTO GLOBE COMMENTS ---------- On the Award of Letters to the 'Womien Athletes. i The Toronto Globe has the follow- ng: "Following somewhat closely upon thé opinion of British athletic auth- orities that women ¢ould never com- pete on an equality with men incath- jeties with hope of sucéess, the an- nouncément is made at Queen's Uui- versity that "the equality of men and women in athletics has beea recognized by the Alma Mater 8o6- ¢iéty." The constitution of the so- ciety has been amended to permit of the award of letters to women ath: letés who represent their college in intercollegiate fixtures. Members of theme teams will get the coveted gold "Q" on exactly the same condi« tions as the male students. There i§ a difference, however, in the twé {ntdrpretations of the term *'equale fiy'"" as between the British and Queen's authorities. The Old Couns College, and \\o. sporting fans, ac- cording to his weport had a great time in the sunny South and ob his way home stopped over at New Or- leans and saw thé Chicago Bears, the professional American rugby team with "Red" Grange in action. Grange says that Grange is every- thing that is said of him and declares that the American footfall idol is the gréatest man he ever saw on & foot- ball field. He marvelled at the speed of the big fellow amd his ability to break quickly. Baldwin was all tak- en up with Crange's playing and praised him highly. Statement By Francis King Bays Chicago Steal Must Cease Before Canada Helps De- velop St. Lawrence. Sissi Detroit, Mich., Jan. 15.--The Do- ada has asked the Canadian Govera- ment to have nothing to do with any big development plans for the St. Lawrence river until the diversion over the watershed at Chicago is stopped. So declared Francis King, K.C., of Kingston, Ont, Counsel of Marine Association before the .con- vention of the Great Lakes Harbor Association here today. Styled by leaders a 'protest' meet- ing, the convention was the scene yesterday of much bitter iavective against Chicago's withdrawal of Lake Michigan water for sewage and wa- téerway purposes. William George Bruce, Milwaukee, labelled Chicago's diversion of' 10,000 cubic feet par second a "atéal," while Newton Bak. er former secretary of war and now general counsel for the Lake Car riers Association, termed it "human but illogical." "No one can suggest" declared Mr. King, "that Canada would be un- reasonable in declining to embark upon any expenditures until this leak at Chicago {is stopped. "This year nét a freight boat could: run down Rapid Du Plat in the St. Law- rence because of low water, and all boats had to go down the adjacent candl to Morrisburg. There have been groundings innumerable, and ocean boats below Montreal in the river have shared in these troubles. Our loss is proportionate to yours, We use your locks at Sault Ste. Marie, as ours become useless, rela- tively useless, through low water. The United States is not taking any- thing from us which it is not tak- ing from itself." William George BruTe of Milwau- kee was re-elected president, and C. Alfred MaGuire of Toronto, first vice-president of the association. Other Canadians eléctéed to the board of directors were, Joseph Gibbons, Toronto, DeGoste Beaubien, Monte real, and Francis King, Kingston. "Resolutions protesting further le- gislation which sanctions diversions lowering lake levels and asking laws to protect againet the recurrence of diversions were adopted. tents S------ T0 RELEASE DOUGHTY ON 2ND FEBRUARY a Ambrose J.
