Markbam, Ont., Feb. 17.-Ix the first of home and home games in the third Found played here last night ithe Kingston junior O.H.A. team . won from Markham by 8 to 6. The Eame was av hour and a half late in starting owing to the fact that the bus bringing the Kingston players . from Toronto broke down on the Way causing a long delay. The rin was packed by a record crowd ire waited patiently and were 'well re- paid after the game got under way. From the face-off Kingston scored ote and the home boys came right back with another counter, shortly after notching a second one which was disputed 'but allowed and the '#goal umpire.replaced. The game was very fast all the way, the visitors | combining nicely for two more be- fore the period closed. After the rest they went into the fray again and the play moved up and down the rink with lightning speed keeping the crowd on edge all the time each team scoring alter nately. The score at the end of the second frame being 5 to 3 for the visitors. The home boys usually come strong at the end and last night's game was no exception. Soon 'after the last period started they ' had the score tied at five all but [the superior combination and speed of the visitors soon gave them three more goals. The Kingston forward line worked a beautiful three man combination, Markham 'lacking in that respect. The players all worked hard and it would be difficult to pick any special stars. Both goalies put up . a stellar performance making many wonderful stops. Underwood for SPORTING boys deserve great credit for - the way théy held the heavier and more experienced Kingston team to so close a score and the return match in Kingston on Friday night should provide some excellent hockey. There were few penalties the game being the fastest and best seen here for a long time. 3 The life ups: Kingston--Goal, Taughter; de- fence, McKelvey, Vass; centre, Reid; wings, Hartley, Pafterson; subs., Smith, M¢Pherson.

A -------------- PHILIPS TALKS BUSINESS Pay WITH MONTREAL PROS. Sault Ste. Marie, Feb. 17.--Phil- lips, much sought after centre play- ¢r, left for Montreal, where he will confer with George McNamara, form- er coach of the locals, and who hand- léd the team for a part of this sea- son. Phillips had received a very tempting offer Trom New York, but announced that he would . remain with the Soo on condition that Mec- Namara act as coach of the team. Phillips has remained with the Soo for four games In the absence of Mec- Namara on business in the east, and says that he will come back from Montreal in time to join the Sault team in St. Paul. According to reliable information Phillips has an offer of $19,000 for a three-year contract with the Mont- real Maroons. Narly in the season Phillips had received offers from the New. York team, "Cha" Making Bets. Any time that Boston and New York meet, Dr. Stewart and "Red" Green have a friendly bet. "Doc" wagers that "Red" will not score a goal on him, and the sorrel-top has accomplished the feat but once this season. In the last game they play- ed Green got in on top of Stewart on several occasions, but Charlie al- the homesters showed some great . speéd and clever stick handling and with Stevenson and Lunau made a .#trong defence. As this is their first year in the O.H.A. the Markham ways managed to block him. The last shot Green made was caught by the former Tiger goalie, and he handed it to "Red" and 'told him to throw it in.--FHamilton Spectator. od | SPORTING NOTES AND COMMENT - .

In its decision against the return of resin, the International joins the American League in fighting the rev storation of the "foreign substance" which was banned several years ago by organized baseball as contribut- ing to "freak deliveries." 3 The league also voted to reject re- vised sacrifice fly rule, whi the joint rules committee at a recent meeting here decided to make appli- cable in ail cases where a runner ad- vances a base. Hitherto a sacrifice has been credited only when runners scored from third base. 3 pd MIHNE KIDNEY | dlens had absolutely nothing to do '{ Canadiens play, even to being in|: day. w SAYS MIKE IS O.K.
