The Sudbury team was espec- fally strong last year, and its sup- porters claimed that it was the best amateur team in Canada. The 227th has entered both senior and inter- mediate teams in the O.H.A.. H. G. Rose is the president of the 227th Hockey Club, with Sergt. R. A, McKinnon secretary. They should cut quite a big figure in the O.H.A. senior ranks this Winter and put Hamilton in a high place on the hoec- key map. The 235th Battalion will have a téam in the infermediate series, and, while at present located at Belle ville, may be moved to Cobourg or some other town along the lake front. Capt. C.' W. E. Meath is president and Sergt. H, Kingscott secretary of the 235th team, which has a number of good hockey players in its line-up. At the annual meeting of the O, H.A., which will be held in Toronto early next month, each club whose fees are paid will be entitled to one delegate.

There will be a cut all along the line among the N.H.A, players, Con- {tracts which have gone out from every club call, almost without ex- {ception, for a lower figure than was {paid last season. Manager Quinn of {the Quebec team, has announced that | every player will be asked to sign {for a less smaller sum, Canadian players admit that the contracts which they recently received all show la cut in salary. Didier Pitre, one of the chamgpions' most brilliant for- | wards of last season, has declined to sign at the reduced figure. The Ot- tawa club is also having trouble with its players over the salary cut. Wan- derers ized a few players at the close of last season, and it is not like- ly that the red-banded outfit will be asked to stand for such drastic sal- ary 'cuts as wilb'be tHe case on some other teams.

The humber of Grand Trunk men fallen on the field of honor in France and Flanders grows each week. Fig- ures obtained from the headquarters of the railway yesterday show that 180 employees of 'thé system' have been killed im action to.date, this to- tal including men from the Grand Trunk Pacific, while scores of others are wounded or missing. The Grand Trunk has over 3,000 of its' men at the front, and these represent: all grades in service, from 'mea occupy- ing important positions as heads of departments to laborers along the right of way.

"It's true that my, speed prevents me in a way from being a great knockout man. But they say I'm the fastest man in the world, and even if I didn't believe in the action theory I don't see how I could afford to sacrifice it for a knockout wallop. I know I'd rather see a man hitting a hundred stinging punches than one remaining 'set' for ten rounds and then putting over a big one.

The following account &f a base- ball game played by two' :niilitary teams in England appedred iratently in a London daily: -- Salisbury were the first to dat but were soon out, and Prior Park took the bat. "The pitchers, especially Sergt. Rogers, whivzed the: balls up at tremendous speed, and most 'of the batsmen dismissed were 'out through missing it. Much fun was caused by the attempts of the base. runners to steal runs and the efforts of the fielding side %o' éateh 'them | napping. One of the fieldsmen while Salishury were batting' ¢aught a batsman ndthwithstanding a collision between batsman and fieldsman, which brought down the latter, - Wheh Salisbury were batting four balls with no strikes 'were sent to Sergt. Rogers, who accordingly, walked to first base, an@'imntediately' afterwards he gained another base by a venturesome run after a bats- man had been dismissed for not run: ning or striking a legitimate ball. In this inning Sergt. Rogers com- pleted his run, which, as it after- wards transpired there was only one in the first inning, made two for the side. - And so the game proceeded. A Salisbury batsman walked to the first base through a ball from the pitcher striking him. Prior Park then got all their bases full, and scored a run, and then twp more followed some poor throwing and an overthrow.. Another 'came in the same innings. The score was now 4-2 for Prior Park. The biggest hit of the match--by Corp. Dickie--produced three runs for Salisbury, and they took a good lead. Subsequently the run-getting proved fairly even, and at the close of the eight inning--it being half- past five--the game finished, with} the score officially given as 9-8 in| favor of the Salisbury Canadians, Montreal Herald: --Clint Benedict doesn't want to play in Ottawa -this year, and may be traded to Toronto so Ottawa advices are. - The Ottawa club has Hebert, but he is not in Benedict's class, and if the Senators lose Benny they will leave a big gap in their defence. » monument that I have in stock.
