Olympic and world figure skating slum- plonshlp meets.

Barbara Ann continues to train a minimum of eight , hours daily at the Mlnto Skating Club.

And during the coming tour she will add another distinction to the growing list-the last non- European to compete in the Euro- pean figure skating championships at Prague early in January. She also is the first non-European to win. Minto Club officials said Euro- pean authorities have decided to permit the Ottawa skater to com- pete this year because she won the title last year. In future. non- Europeans will not be permitted to compete for the European title. Leaving Montreal's Dorval air- port by Trans-Canada. Air Lines Dec. 14. Barbara Ann will corn- pete in the Prague championships. take part in the Olvmpic cham- pionships early in February and then enter the world champion- ships at Davos. Switzerland, in mid-February.

r-——---.. I The WEEK, 1’ »at S.D. U. _

m

This morning on my way to the Chapel. 1 paused to join a group of students who were studying a new notice that had been posted. They seemed to be unusually in- forested. and since no one seemed to be getting very much o: a kick out of it. I reasoned that the ob- ject of their attention could not be a new Joke on our _model A (“A" stands for antiquated), nor a new gem from the fertile minds of the humor editors of Red And White. It was useless to try to el_ bow my way jn to the bulletil board, but I managed to pick a few clues from the buzz of conversa- tion: "Mine didn't break very well . .". ,“L00k at that. will ynu —- two on Monday and two on Wed- nesday". “I'll be through on Thurs- day." Of course! I should have guessed it -— the notice of ex- aminations! Time does fly, doesn't it? It seems as if we just finished round one, and here we are get- ting the warning buzzer for round two: Term exams begin on Dei- ember Dth. '

The football season is over; it ended here last Friday when the second Saints wen the Island in- tercolicgiate championship from P.W.C. George Cameron ended the long reign of the Welshmen with a well placed penalty kick in the second half. In case you neglect- ed to rend the sport page cf Sat- urday's paper. we might add that the final score was 10-5.

No sooner is‘ fohthall season over than we find ourselves locking forward to hockey. In fort the hec- key season has already started; for the past few Thursdays the Saints have been holding pract- ices ln the Forum. Moreover. the first game is next Tuesday with the Navy. Have we an predic- tions? Well. as we menglonad be- fore. Hewlett has the hockey sit- uation pretty wcll analyzed. and we are inclined to agree that the saints are- as good as if not bet- ter than they were last year. There is only one thing wrong with his analysis: he insists on comparing the Saints with the Canadians. see some

parallel between them and the Maple Leafs I O I The Charlottetown Basketball

nearly every day for the past few weeks. The Saints are also entered in the Maritime intermediate in- tercollegiate league this year; they will play a home-and-home series with the New Brunswick winners. If successful here, they will then play a sudden death game with the Nova Scotie winners for the Maritime title. The coach this year is Rev. W.J. MacG-uigan. who is noted for producing good teamnin the pest. We are sure that the team will make a good showing in the intercollegiate circuit; man- ager "Steve" Murnaghan is more emphatic. however: "Good show- Ing? That's hardly the word; we are the future champions." And that seems to be the attitude of the team itself. So let's see you go, boys; we are all behind you. O l O

‘TORONTO. Nov. zs-ilighiy fa- vored to win their third straight Dominion football championship. Toronto Argonauts raced through their final workout tonight before tomorrow's Grey Cup final with Winnipeg Blue Bombers, expected to draw a capacity crowd of 10.000 to Varsity Stadium.

Coach Tedder Morris called a light signals drill in crisp. cold weatherfl-just the kind promised for the kickofi’. The weatherman said there may be some snowflur- ries. not enough to cover the hard. fast field. and that a stiff north- west wind would probably be blow- ing.

The Bombers, given only a one- in-flve chance of bringing the west its fourth Grey Cup. rested up today after a sightseeing tour to Niagara. Falls. The Western champions finished their light drills yesterday at Hamilton. where they arrived Monday. and are expected to travel the 40 miles to Toronto by bus a few hours before the game.

Though defeated 35-0 and 28-6 by Argos in the last two east-west classics and beaten. 16-9 and 11- 0. in two pro-season exhibition

games in Winnipeg. there was plenty of confidence in the Bomb- er camp. '

Coach Jack West. the Bombers’ middle-aged mentor from North Dakota, said his club was "bigger and faster" than the team he brought east last year. with about half the lineup changed. l-le ex- plained the two exhibition losses by saying that his United States imports. of which the Bombers have their full quota of five. were still green to the Canadian game

The Bombers U. S. aces were expected to carry much of the load against the Dominion cham- pions.

Morris. whose Argos have car- ried. no U. S. imports, pointed out that the Argos‘ hard-driving tac- tics carried them to a 24-0 round- score victory over Ottawa Rough Riders in the two-game big four playoff. He conceded that Argos let up a bit in their 22-1 eastern final triumph over Ottawa Tro- jans. _

If Argos win. ‘it will be the eighth Grey Cup won by Argonaul teams, more than any other in the history of Canadian Rugby Union

three times running. the double blue also would tie the record o.’ consecutive titles held by the great Queen's University" team of 1922- 22-24.

The Bombers will be trying for the West's fourth Grey Cup vic- tury. Bombers won the others bv defeating Hamilton Tigers. 18-12. 1.1 1935; Ottawa Rough Riders. 8-7 in 1039 and 18-6 in 1041.

SAINT JOHN. N. 13.. Nov. 25- ufith one day remaining in the 1947 New Brunswick hunting sea- son, observers are wondering if the "open season" was on game er hunters. Unofficial figures show the casualty toll to date as six killed and 10 wounded-a shoot- ing every three and a fatality ev- ery nine hunting days.

ln addition there were countless "near misses." including several instances of bullets whipping through the clothing of hunters and an undetermined number of unreported wounds.

Heaviest carnage of the fire- shortened season occurred over the Thanksgiving Day holiday. when six persons fell before the barrage —two fatally wounded.

Several gunshot victims remain under medical care. One-e 1S- year-old boy-is in hospital at Saint John with a .22 bullet still lodged in his head after a mishap more than a week ego.

Death struck at four New Bruns- wick homes and claimed the lives of two visiting sportsmen during the es hunting days to date. ‘Ifivo residents of this Province were killed in mistake for deer. The others died of accidentally self- infllcted wounds.
