Another one spoke of the times when the place-kick was considered 50 important and attrattive a fea- ture that men would' practice it for hours. In those days only four points wére given for a touch-down and two for a conversion. Another enthusiast remembers "Chick" McRae of Queen's--they al- ways seem to have had a "Chié¢k" there--as the place-kicRer par ex- eallence. He used to practise with a pe! holding the ball while lying on the ground for at least half an hour be- fore the game started and people used to come early to enjoy the sight. Stuart Raeside was on that team, and Dr. A. E. Ross, Federal Conser- vative member for Kingston. And Guy Curtis was captain~and centre half and his language used to get so lurid in times of stress that the Rev. Principal Grant who then ruled Queen's used to adnmionishingly shake his good hand at him, Tor he only had one. ------------ BROEKVILLE IN E.O.AB.L.

THE DAI LY BRITISH GENERAL MERCANTILERS ARRANGE DATES f | { | | | League Takes Steps to Foster | Interests of Juvenile { « Teams. The executive of the City Baseball League last night decided to take the initiative in organizing a Juve- nile section in this city, and for this purpose they invite the co-operation {of those who are anxious to get | teams entered and started in this | class of baseball. If enough teams | enter the City League proxys will | organize a series and get the young- sters started off on their way to- younger section of that grouping. In addition to this important item of business at last night's meeting of the executive final arrangements were made to carry on both the Mercantile and Junior O.B.A.A, sec- tions. Five teams are entered in the former and {wo in the latter and as the entries in both sections are now closed the schedules for both were arranged. Several other matters of importance to both sections were jalso arranged, | The Schedules. The schedules as arranged night, are as follows: last MERCANTILE SECTION. First Half. 20--Printers at Plumbers. 25---Bankers at Wholesalers. 28--Plumbers at Tanners. 2--Wholesales at Printers. 4--Tanners at Bankers. 7--Wholesalers at Plumbers. 10--Bankeérs at Printers. 15---Tanners at Wholesalers. 21--Plumbers at Bankers. 24--Printers at Tanners. 17---Victorias at Circle Six. 24--Circle Six at Victorias. 1--Victorias at Circle Six. 9--Circle 8ix at Victorias. 17--Viectorias at Circle Six. 1--Circle Six at Victorias. (Morning, 10.15). May June July Take Up Juveniles, ~ Two considerationc prompted the executive in deciding to spomsor the Juvenile section, one being that ft felt that the youngsters should be encouraged for their own.good and the second being that if the youmng- sters 'are not started there will soon be a dearth of good juniors as well as seniors. It was with an eye to the boosting of sport, and of en- larging the possibilities ahead of the younger baseballer that the work was undertaken, and the executive made it plain that if the youngsters, both of themselves and through team managers, did not co-operate the sec- tion would not be a success. The whole thing is now up to the in- dividual player under 18 years of age on May 1st next, and on those whom they will choosetas managers. Co-operation will be the means of giving them a splendid chance to get to the front, and to send out a city winner into the O.B.A.A. play-offs as well as to giye the youngsters a good chance to get a lot of sport and development out of the game at home, Team managers are asked to get in touch with Secretary W. Fowler or J. J. O'Neill of The Standard and a meeting will be arranged to fur- ther the interests of the proposed section. This must be done right ' away as the time for getting in shape . is now shortening up. TORONTO STADIUM (OPENED THURSDAY Leafs Defeated Reading in --en-Inning Game by Score of 6-85. TA wards the O.B.A.A. play-offs in the Toronto, April 30.--Toronto Maple | Leafs celebrated the opening of their new $500,000 baseball park { here Thursday by defeating Read-| ing 6-5. The Keys were leading 5-0 | going into the last half of the ninth inning, but the Leafs staged a re- markable rally and scored five runs to tie the score. They then won out in the tenth when Jim Marquis walked Layne, the latter going to second on a wild piteh, and reaching third when Miller laid down a per- fect sacrifice. Del Capes also damp- ed the ball in front of the plate and Layne squeezed home with the win- ning run. Rain fell continuously during the game, commencing while the opening ceremonies were being 'held, but over 18,000 people witness- fed the blow-off. ~~ i Reading. . .100 002101 0--5 16 0 Toronto. . .0000000051--6 12 1 Batteries: Marquis and Lynn; Stewart, Maley, Satterfield, Carroll WHIG package than the Bachelor Pocket Packs of 5 or 10. AA A EA A, Was a smart catcher and a good fellow, "Chic" Ward will be a bench warmer until July 1st, and Lennox, of Peterboro, will join the no-player league for the rest of the season. The Lift Lock city is a nice place and he will be in a nice home for the sum- mer. If he moves this year for next season's play no doubt the O.B.A.A. will bar him altogether, so it looks as if the Petes will have one player to start 1927 with at any rate. King- ston are, no doubt, the heaviest hit in this league for they will have to depend on Cairns to carry the whole pitching burden and, believe us, with the class of ball that is played in this league it can't be done. Johuny Oullet and Harry ("Hoot") Gibson will be a big help to the local squad and should make the team a conten- der for the penant right from the start. Old Boulevardiers of Paris 'are complaining that a portion of Grand Bouelevard is much colder than jn previous winters because the length- ening of the Boulevard Haussman has created a strong curremt of air there.
