Who is the man in Weston that is going to get in touch with the out- side towns and see if we can not get lacrosse under proper and broader management. We want a new set of officers for the Ontario Lacrosse As- sociation. The Record says in part: “The T0- ronto bossism of the O.H.A. should cease, and that immediately. All year long there have been murmurings here against the dealings handed out to the out-of-Toronto teams in the C).H.A. senior\series, but it was fanned into flame by the actions of Steve Vair. To say the least, he gave Kitchener a very raw deal, and practically hand- ed the game to Aura Lee on a silver platter. Kitchener have played six games to date this year, and in all these games they have had a. Toronto official. Ali the Toronto teams have to do to secure the services of a To- ronto referee is to refuse the ICitchen- er choices consistently, which they generally do, and suggest a man they know will not be agreeable here. Then the deadlock is 'broken' by the O.H.A. appointing a 'neutral' reteree. In To- ronto these referees are fair because the big crowds there demand that outside teams get a square deal." Weston people will be interested in the kick Kitchener registers against Toronto referees in the O.H.A. Yes, Kitchener, we know! O.A.L.A. hand- ed us the same dose last summer. We differ with you in as much as we never got a square deal in Toronto. It will not be long before the frost is out ot the ground. It has beenKask- ed by the powers that be, what they intend to do with the surface of the playing field at the Fair Grounds. No doubt they know that it is like cement and nearly ruins the boys' feet and legs. It should have a top dressing. Last season it was covered with brok- en glass or pop bottles. This is a dangerous practice and should be stopped. What about a '. fence or boards around, so the ball can be kept in play. Spectators will appreciate this and it's Weston Park, Let's try and improve it. Are we, in Weston, keeping abreast " the times in sport? Are not other towns smaller beating us? Maybe not in lacrosse, but that is the only line Weston follows and it is a short season and a long time between sea- sons. Before another year goes by Weston will have a worthy rival in sport and that will be Mt. Dennis, who are at present seeking a charter tor a town. They are working on an Athletic As- sociation which will take care of all sports. They aim to put a lacrosse team in the O.A.L.A., a baseball team in the city league, a soccer team in the T. & D. They will build an up- to-date closed rink and enter the O. H. A. They have a first-class bowl- ing green and should be heard from next season. They also have tennis courts and are now halt way through their games in the Church Hockey League, Presbyterian Church is lead- ing. Games are played every Catur- day afternoon . Mt. Dennis people are , loyal and always turn out to boost their own team. B. Maxwell, of base- I ball fame, and Dr. W. E. Pearson,!, who organized and managed so many Successful lacrosse teams in Weston and at College, are the moving 'spirits in sports, . I Are the people of Weston gomg to do anything to encourage sport among the Public School children ? Say la- crosse and baseball for boys and basketball for girls. Why not organ- ize a league for them Rom 8 years to 10 and so on? They will enjoy it if someone will only take it up and supervise the children at play. We cannot understand why Lasicet- ball has not been taken up at the Public and High Schools by both boys and girls. It is a clean, healthy game, and can be played In a. limited space. Tote Farr has been asked to coach the JCodak team, in the Mercantile league. We admire there :lemce as Tote is one ot the brainiest players in the game. ' . v, Where are the soccer football men in Weston? We have the players, the ground§ and a large Old Countrypop- ulation. Corrie on boys. Let's get in the game, . , Shelburne‘Juniors, who won the Junior o. H. A. Group Weston was in, didn’t last long outside of it. Owen quund beat them 9-3 right in Shel- bume. A fumor is going around that the Ontario Jockey Club have recently uoriked over the Trethewey Farm with ’thejdea'ot moving' the Woodlgine lracing plant to it. It is an ideal held with' two railroads, street cars right lo the gate and Keele Street running direct from the Hamiltqn ,l-Iighway. It would be a booét to Westcyr, PAGE EIGHT SPUHTING ITEME Ill: MII, m Live Issues of the Day - Read 3 Them and Send Your Own In. NTEREST Can. Kodak . ... . . Can. Cycle .. . . . . Hende Dauch . . .

Remember Good Friday the election of officers for Ontario Lacrosse Asso- ciation takes place. Have you done anything towards boosting Arnold Smith for President with an all On- tario Council? Weston people will have a big week- end with two championships at stake. Thursday, C. C. M. Juniors vs. Gutta Percha, at Weston rink. Friday night. C. C. M. seniors vs. Overlands at Ita- vina. Can yqu pick the winners? Come and see them for yourself.' Jack Miner, who was here last week, was a. treat. This is a start to show the children how to treat wild animals. He will be welcome any time. . Bill Kellock, manager of the Harris Abatoir Juniors, is running in hard luck. In a senior game he fell and had 2 teeth knocked out and his mouth badly cut with a skate. Then his team lost an overtime game when they appeared sure winners. Backus, goal keeper of Gutta Per- cha hockey team, looks to us the best in the league., Jack Armstrong, senior rugby play- er, last year with Parkdale cinoe Club, and well known hockey referee,, is managing Swifts hockey team in T. Gordon Coulter is in north country looking after his windmill interests. Jack Mattison, captain of the C. C. M. senior hockey team, took some stiff body checkingand on every oc- casion came up smiling. The surprise of the hockey season for Weston Peo- 'ie is Henry Best's goal tending. Can the C AJ. M. seniors stop Over- lands? Come and see for yourself next Friday night at Ravina. You won't see any better game this winter. In the list of winning drivers just released, Vic. Rowntree stands fourth with $327 to his credit, driving his good horse, Billy Abdul}, at Mt. Clemens. . N. J. McEwen, manager of the Bank of Montreal, is the only Weston representative in curling. Last year curling with Granites, they captured the tankard. This year, with the same club, he is in the single rlnk semi-finals. Good luck! Last summer we had a baseball team that, given some qoachintand a good manager, looked good oncug,% to hold their own in u good league. The senior T. I. A. game last Friday nlght between C. C. M. and Swifts was one o: the best yet played in the .group. Both teams are about equal. Swifts lack the punch around their opponents' goal. Davidge, 0t Swifts. was the fastest man on the ice. M01 ris Barney, the “Weston boy, on Swifts, worked hard and got one of Swifts goals. Tiffin, a tireless worker and one of the best back checkers in the league, tried hard. He has evetvrchir'ur but a shot. Bill Coulter, on right wing, starred for C.C.M. _, Harold Coulter was good on the defence. Henry Best, in goitl, turned in the best game of his career.

The Davies came to the rink with a. team made up from the Don Senior T. H. L. team, who play Aura Lee for the city championship, and right to enter the Intermediate O.FLA. semi-finals, and players from St. Mary's, touted as the fastest junior team in Toronto. Eddie Burke, their star, was at left wing for Davies, and the battle between he and Wally Adams was worth the price atone‘and Eddie was the star or near it ' F. G. Adams, factory manager of Willys-Qverland, is no stranger to' Weston. He played gdal tor Weston lacrosse team for several years, and was on the team that brought the first senior city championship to Wes- ton. . Fred Rowntree, later a. star in pro. company, was also a member, and Dr. w. E. Peirson, was manager. Mr. Adams and his family never missed a game last year that Weston played, at home or the beach.

Queen street has shown wonderful growth and developement during the past few years and of late it has been neces- sa ry to operate a. bus service in order to handle the traffic. _ Watchful whiting is the general slo- gan for the two play concert that is to be held in the Community Hall on Friday evening, March 3rd. Every- body will be there for the "Lesson in' Marriage" also between "Soup and Savoury" which will be given by Mrs. Brown, of Toronto. The Queen St. Community Society will hold their next regular meeting in the Hall on Tuesday evening next. The Young People's Society .Will hold a Box Social on Tuesday, Feb. 14th, St. Valentine's Day, in the Com- munity Hall. One of the best parties of the sea- son was enjoyed when Mr. Harris held an' old time party in the Community Hall. Over one hundred were present and enjoyed immensely the splendid music as provided by Winters' Orches- tra. No less appreciation was ev- pressed for Mr. Com Pressley who carried out his arduous duties of "Calling-Ott" and also especially fea- turing the. occasion ot an old time party. When the mystic hour drew nigh refreshments were served. The C.C.M. Athletic Association ex- pect to have a big crowd out to their Ye olde tyme euchre and dance on Wednesday, February 15th, at Willys- Overland cafeteria. A good time is promised for all. Harrison's orches- tra will Be on hand. Remember the date, February 15th. The third series of five pin reague starts this week, and C.C.M. play Can- adian General Electric. The boys are out to win the last series so as to get into play-on'. The’C.C.M. five pin team played Hihde and Dauch in T. I. A. League oh Tuesday and dropped two of the three games, This came as a big sur- prise, as they had Won three games from McDonald's the previous night. The game next Friday should be staged at Arena instead of the Ravi- na. If you are wise you will get there early, as tliere's going to be full house to gee the C.C.M. and Overland play in eight o’clock game. The C.C.'M. is proud of their hockey teams and expects them hotly to tie up their groups and run in the play- off. ' The C.C.M. Juniors are in-great shape and are looking forward to the night when the above game will be played. They have improved wonder- fully since the first game, when they lost to Steel Co. 5-2. Next time they expect to reverse this score. We are glad to heir that Stanley Sanford, one of the substitutes of the C.C.M. seniors; is getting over his re- cent illness, and hope to see him in uniform on Friday.' Henry Best ‘is out to 'set a record for goalkeeping. In five games only 10 goals have been scored against him. _ This looks to be the best av, erage in Group A ot T.1.N. The Junior game against Steel Co. of Canada was called off last Thursday owing to mild weather. The forward line with Jack Matti, son at centre and Ken liingdon and Bill Coulter on the wings, played stel- lar hockey all night, and their rush- ing back, checking was pt a high brand. The sub, Reg. Fordham, was used occasionally, but he has not reached the class of the rest of team, but is needed so that the players can get the needed rest. The employees of C.C.M. will back this team to the last ditch and will be out in full force next Monday. The defence played an exceptional- ly good game with Harold Coulter do- ing some great rushing and shooting, which had the fans on their toes. Gordon Dicken also made some pret- ty rushes and took a lot ot' stopping once he started. I In game against Swifts played last Friday abRavina, it was hard to pick a star on the C.C.M. team. Every one or the boys gave their best and were in the game from start to finish. In goal Henry Best showed to good advantage and, continues to improve in every game played. The C.C.M, team is showing up bet- ter every game, and will make the Overland team travel next Friday night to win. N Scores irl,ras't Saturday's game ,in Mt.

Overland Wins The second game also proved to be a snappy one and Davies made Over- land travel all the way. The final score:sOverland 6, Davies 1. Overland team had the edge of the play after the first period, which ended 2-1 in favor of the motormen, in which the Davies’ team showed to good advan- tage, especially the forward line, which checked back hard through the whole period. The Overland team all played good hockey, with Jim Coulter as usual playing sterling hockey. Gus Edwards refereed both these games and handled them to the satis- faction of all. In the opener C.C.M. defeated Swifts 4--2, after a hard checking game, which proved to be the fastest and cleanest game of the season. Both teams were out to win and the result was in doubt until the final gong went. C.C.M. got one goal in the first period when Bill Coulter scored from the side, and added two more in the sec- ond period, when Jack Mattison SCOP- ed from face-off in front of goal and Harold Coulter went through the whole Swift team tor a counter. Swifts came back strong in the third period, sending their entire team up on the attack and run in two goals with about five minutes still to go. The C.C.M. supporters went wild when Jack Mattison and Ken Kingdon broke away and by pretty combina- tion scored another, making the final score 4---2.

The losers were more outlucke'd than outplayed, having a trifle the best of the play, but they did not have the punch when it came to getting the goals.
