Just now some of the more unfor- tunate of us are stranded in the dol- drums of sport which generally comes in the early Spring and late Fall of the year--a lull before the opening of Summer and Winter sports in each case. Those who have succumbed to the lure of badminton are exceptions, They are able to give us the merry laugh as they proceed with their fav- orite pastime regardless of the change in the season. Ld uy Rad The doors of the local arena will be closed for the season after skating on Saturday night, and it is doubtful if the local ice palace has had such a - busy season since it was built. With two amateur teams which fought their way into the semi-finals and a profes- sional team which was eliminated in the finals, local fans had hockey in quantity and variety such as was the lot of few cities in Ontario. * s fe Added to that, there was city league hockey, school league hockey, rural league hockey and the little feuds which crop up between business houses and industries and have to be settled on the ice every year. In fact, there was so much of the winter pastime that Manager Frank Peter found it difficult to keep three nights a week open for skating. * + * The Kitchener Lacrostics have be- come the victims of their own inven- tions. While the Kitchener boys can not exactly be credited with inventing ice lacross, they have boosted it in the Waterloo city, only to be beaten by the Stratford outfit which was playing its first and only game of the year. * * * Between two teams of fast skaters and good stick-handlers the game could be developed to a degree where it would be pretty to watch. It is a game which requires great skill if combination work is employed. Snap- ping up a pass to a speeding mate is a trick which can not be mastered in a few moments, and then too, it is found much more difficult to shoot accurate- ly while travelling on skates than run- ning up the field. If the shot is not timed to the stride a spill results. * * * Who wouldn't want to play in the Junior City League or the Public and High School League. The way those champion Chiswell's in the former league, and Immaculate Conception in the latter loop have been feted lately must make some of the older perform- ers envious. Both teams are worthy of the honor which has been paid them. Chiswell's, considered one of the 'fought their way through to the title, while Immaculate Conception boys have won the school title for five suc- cessive years. a e e From the ranks of these boys will come the players who will be wearing the red and white of the Midgets in a few years. Stratford has material of which is just as good as that in iKt- chener or any other city, but there is only one way to develop it and that is in organized competition. a i a Talk about reversal of form-- listen to this one.
