CLEVELAND LOOKS 10 BE THE TEAM Dhances of Getting Into the National Hookey League Bright. Montreal, April 17.-- While Chi- cago and Detroit have been mention- ed as possible new members of .the National Hockey League, there is an- other city which, many local people think, has probably more chance of coming into the big eastern profes- sional hockey circuit than any other, and that is Cleveland, Ohio. Repre- sentatives of that city were also ex- pected to attend the semi-annual meeting of the National Hockey Lea- ue commenced this morning, It is understood that the only ob- on these Interests have to throw- ing in thelr lot with the hockey mo- guls is the demanded outlay of $50,- 000 for the franchise. They claim they have to spend a lot of money 10 build a rink and organize a team, and they think the amount asked for the franchise is a little too steep. They are hopeful that the league can make some other arrangement in this connection. But while these applications will be made at the clean-up meeting, a new angle comes up which will probably prevent any new members, but the second New York club from being included for the 1926-27 sea- \ COMFORT A cream that softens, cools and comforts the skin like a balm . . . that takes all the fight out of the most stub- born stubble . . . that makes a close, clean shave possible « + » Williams Shaving Cream. 1lions of men the world over find it the beginning of a perfect day.

The clubs desirous of getting in have the money, but not the players. Three or four new clubs in would, in the opinion of several hockey .-men, de- crease the playing strength of the teams, for there are a limited num- ber of players available and four clubs would be after them instead of one. It Is felt that one club should be admitted to balance yp the circuit to an eight-club affair, and while others might be promised franchises for the future, these should be given a year more to build up. In this way, the playing strength could be, kept more equal and there would not bg the sudden scramble by three or four clubs for the few players that may be found of professional calibre at the present time." TUBMAN WILL PLAY WITH THE NATIONALS Was in Montreal This Week on Business. wdsnpenen Montreal, April 17.-- Although 1t has been reported at different times that Joe Tubman, kicking ace of the Ottawa football team, would be. here in Montreal to play next fall, and then again that he would be with Lionel Conacher in "Red" Grange's professional Jeague in the United States. It seems now that the form- er report is correct. Tubman was in Montreal this week on business. In fact that business was to get located here.. He return- ed to Ottawa again with practical as- surance of a position in this city. It he comes to Montreal he will play with the Canadian National team {in the Ontario Football Union. Local rumor has it that Harry "Red" Batstone, Queen's star, will be seen with Parkdale in the same league as the Canadian National Railway club next season. Batstone is due to leave the Kingston Univer- sity this year, it is stated. rm WHO KNOWS? Ottawa, April 16.--'*Bud" Thomas, great outside wing of Queen's Uni- versity, "Pep" Leadley, famous drop kick and kicking half-back, and Harry Batstone, the most elusive and brainiest running half-back in Cana- dian rugby, will pitch their rugby tents elsewhere than Queen's this fall. According to reliable information they will be found in Montreal, and wit play for the M.A.A.A. Tha Ot- tawa Journal, which is authority for this statement, claims to have auth- oritative information that the glit- tering Queen's trio will be with the Winged Wheel. They will not in any event be back with Queen's. This information is vouched for by one of the players themselves in a letter re- ceived here.

If Odessa could but retain last year's players plus some new sf¥EE they have in the making, it is quite certain 'that the Wagar trophy would stay in Odessa | for another year. But O'Neil, the best fielder and a good all-around man in the pinches expects to leave for work in Kingston soon. Emmons another fielder expects to go sailing this summer.

Lee, 1b--His playing days are! nearly over but he is very much at | home with the bat. He was one of | the best hitters last year. Heath, ss--He can make some! snappy plays. He is small but good. I. Buriey, 3b---He is good at the sack or with the willow. W.-Kilgannon--A good outfielder and batter. B. Smith--He has good judgment at the bat and has a wonderful arm for throwing. L. McConnell--He can play any position but is best behind the plate or on the initial sack. He outhit the team last year. P. Clark, H. Reid, R. Lucas, C. Lake and Ford are the most promis- ing new ones in the line-up. The Gdessa Club has been adding to their funds by a series of enter- tainments as a new outfit is required.
