The senior game between the Frontenac Regiment and the Queen's seniors resulted in an earned victory for the Tricolor by the score of 5-3. The game lacked pep and ginger for the.most part but at times there was nice hockey played. Nearly all the goals were scored on pretty work but the general play was nothing to write home about. Queen's did their best work in the last two periods after starting. out very weakly in the first frame. Neither team was able to score in the first period but in the second frame Johnston landed the first goal for Queen's on a dandy rush through the whole Frontehac team. It was the prettiest goal of the game. "Red" Legon began to show his best wares and executed two nice rushes and slipped the rubber past Holman, giv- ing Queen's a 3-0 lead. Purdy scor- ed on a terrific drive from almost half-way, leaving the score at the end of the second period 3-1 for Queen's. Frontenacs held the upper hand for the first half of The last period and checked Queen's off their feet. They were unable to gef {de the blue line and it looked mighty bad for ""Red' Legon and his gang. The offense of the Frontenacs gradually weakened but not before Tommy An- grove had scored. Queen's came back strong and Legon and Findlay each registered one for Queen's. Purdy scored the last goal of the game. Play was brisk and Frontenacs fought hard to overcome the lead but there was nothing done.

Following the game, the Fronte- nac Regiment team protested the game, alleging that '"'Red" Legon and rd were not eligible to play for Queen's in the City Hockey League. The protest was forwarded to President Hicks for action. Lep- pard, apd Legon, it is claimed by Frontenac 'Regiment, played senior Intercollégiate and were therefore unable to play for Queen's in the City League, . HOCKEY RESULTS uy Intermediate O.H.A.

THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG oenEmaL fe CAN THE LOCALS WIN THE ROUND? Much Speculation as to the Outcome of the Game Friday Night. The tremendous interest in. the game on Friday night between xue-| ston and Parkdale juniors has de- veloped inte a question of whether or not the local team can pull down the three goal lead that the Toronto team has There are many who argue that three goals is not such a ter- rible big lead and point out that Parkdale scored their goals while Kingston men were on the penalty. bench They feel that the Kingston team will play far better hockey Fri- day night and will come through. On the 'other hand there are others who; think that three goals is too much. They figure that Kingston will win the game all right. There are mighty few who do not speak that way, at any rate.. But these same people are not willing to con- cede Kingston the round. The opin- fon is well divided and there is great speculation as to the outcome. For the first time this winter there has been heavy betting going on and on Wednesday afternoon sev- eral bets of no mean size were made on the round. It is a question all the way through but the players themselves feel that they can cover Parkdale on the round and they will be in there every minute of the game to try todo it. The seat sale has been enormous and again his morning there was a long lineup at the office at the Ath- letic Board of Control, eager fans demanding the necessary cardboards. The biggest crowd of the season will see the two fast junior outfits in the promised titanic struggle Friday night. With a three-goal lead to carg down here with them, it is expected that Parkdale will be playing a de- fensive game but the Kingston crew will be plugging all the time for enough goals to tie the count. They must get three zoals first before they begin to count on the round for a victory. The proposition is a har@ one but the old Frontenacs did it against Preston and startled the O. H.A. by winning from Preston after being down three goals at the start. Who knows but what it may be « re- petition of the old days? Steve Vair will handle the game and that means a square deal to both teams. Vair has created a very fav- orable impression all over the prov- ince and his work should be satisfac- tory here tomorrow night. MONTREAL TEAM HERE SATURDAY University of Montreal an Queen's meet in the final senior In- tercollegiate game of the season at the Arena, Saturday night, and al- though there is little. at stake, the game should be fast and productive of snappy hockey. University of Montreal defeated Queen's in the former's city but will be making its first local appearance of the season and the Tricolor is confident it can return thé compliment in full, play- ing on the local ice. Queen's has experienced only one victory in the semior Intercollegiate games this season and has every in- tention of making a strong bid for a win Saturday to better its standing. fo a A SPORTING NOTES AND COMMENT There will be at least five artificial ice arenas in Toronto next winter, and possibly six, the High Park Club having decided to install a plant during the coming summer. Arena Gardens, Ravina Rink, Toronto Winter Club and the Victoria Club are ali operating now. University of Toronto will build a big hockey arena next suminer, and the Granite Club is still considering the installation of artificial ice in its new clubhouse, | proposed for North Toronto. It is doubtful if any other city in America has as many artificial ice plants for sporting purposes as Kas Toronto. This is another busy week in hockey circles. Last night there was the Victoria-Boohoos-Queen's junior game in the City League, the Queen's-Frontenac Regiment senibr City League game, on Friday there is the O.H;A. game between Kingston and Parkdale, and on Saturday night the University of Montreal-Queen's senior game. It was also expected that the second game between Queen's juniors and R.M.C., in" the junior Intercollegiate series, would be played this week. - The ticket sale for the game on Friday night will no doubt be the biggest of this or any other season for, some time. The pasteboards were in heavy demand shortly after nine o 'clock Wednesday morning. A busy session is in store for the staff at the Athletic Board office. Local fans seem confident that the local youngsters can pull down the lead on Friday night and at least tie things up. It will be the best hockey battle of the season and there will be mighty few absentees among the hockey fans. Three goals seems a lot to some to overtake, but far more than that bave been covered on home ice with the home crowd to lend their sup- port. out of their reserved state. trick. Kingston will not lack for support Friday night if the fans come The local crew should be able to turn the University of Montreal will be rest- ing in second place if it defeats Queen's in the final game and the strongest team . possible will repre- sent the Montreal University. All of the Intercollegiate games played here this season have been among the best and it is likely that a large crowd will beon hand to see the collegians in action for the last tinre pf the season. The game should certainly be well worth see- ing. . PLEASE CO-OPERATE The players of the Kingston Hoc- key Club, which meets the Parkdale team here Friday night, have made a request that the fans refrain from- smoking during the game on Friday night. They state that by the third period the rink is generally half fill od with smoke and while it has not made much difference to them so far this season, they earnestly request the fans to eliminate the smokes in the rink for this one night. This is not a demand but a request from the players themselves. They say they may need that third period badly and will want the air as clear as pos- sible. Now it's up to the fans, They can either co-operate with the play- ers or do the other thing, It remains' to be seen who will disregard this request, LIKELY T0 BUILD FOUR MORE COURTS Kingston Tennis Olub Has Eight Courts and 8 Mem~ bership of About 160. Owing to: the large number of ap- plications expécted from prospective members of the Kingston Tennis Club this season, the officials of the club have been getting their heads together with a view to outlining their programme of extension for the summer. It is plain to be seen that the club will have to be increas- ed very materially in numbers and therefore the number of courts will likewise have to be increased. As this work should be done before the 'season gets under way, there is every likelihodd that definite plans for extending the size of the club will be formulated very shortly. - At the present time the member- ship of the club members around one hundred and sixty. For this number there are eight courts. These courts just about filled the needs of the one hundred and sixty members. Of the total membership many played during the day time so that the rush during: the evening was lightened to"some considerable extent. Judging from the enthusiasm for the game and the large number who propose making applicalon for mem- bership in the club this season, more than likely that the Kin Tennis Club will build at least I opolis Tennis Club, which is without grounds now to play on. Those who started 'the club have every reason to be proud of their work and must delight in seeing grow:to such an ex- tent, that which they started on a small scale such a short time ago. It is hoped that the Kingston Tennis Club enjoys another successful sea- son. SUZANNE LENGLEN TAKING REST CURE Spanish Girl Falls to Impress in Her First Appear= ance. Monte Carlo, Feb. 24.--The open- ing of the Monte Carlo tennis tour- nament Monday was marked by the return to the courts of Senorita Elia de Alvarez of Spain after an absence of several months and her victory over Miss Lucy Phillips, of England, 6-3, 6-1. The officia! handicapper and re- feree, Georges Simond, has peeded Senorita de Alvares at the top of the lower halt of the draw, and placed Miss Helen Wills, the United States champion, at the top of the 'upper half. The Spanish girl's playing was not impressive; she showed great nead of practice and will have to improve considerably, observers think, to reach the finals, .for she must dispose of either Mrs. Satterth- waite or Mlle. Contoslaves to do that, Miss Wills In the upper half Miss Wills has Miss Eileen Bennett of England, and Frau Neppach the German champion, to overcome before reaching the finals. There is absolute confidence that neither of these players can put her out, and from the record it looks like a German-American semi- finals. Mlle. Lenglen sent word that she would play for the Beaumont Cup on Saturday in the women's doubles with Mlle. Viasto. She left for a mountain resort this evening, refter- ating that she was through with ten- nis singles until June, Those close to the Nice Tennis Club, however, v nish and SEAMAN-KENT FLOOR FINISH Wate!
