6 Latest in Sporting DISGRACEFUL Test Game Between Winnipegs and Maple Leafs the Most Brutal Hockey Match Ever Witnessed Here Six 'Peg Players Had to Receive Stitches-'Pegs Refuse to Continue and Default. The Maple Leafs nomlnallv won the hookey game last night at the Auditorium rink, aa after being battered until they reBembled the remnants of a dynamite explosion, the Winnipeg players were called off the Ice and the match given the Leafs by default, the score at the time being 6-4 In favor ot the Leafs. Brutal Hookey. Strenuous hockey has been witnessed here before, but without doubt the game last night was the most brutal and dlsgarceful exhibition ever seen here and will likely have a serious effect on professional hockey In this city. A few more contests of a like nature and the death knell of professional hockey will be sounded resonantly.

Instead of a hockey game the match resolved Itself Into a field of carnage and In nearly every comer the Ice was streaked with players' blood. Not a Hookey Game. Naturally the stake, admittance to the Manitoba Hockey League, was one which made the players doubly anxious to win, but Instead of employing legitimate means several, of the contestants forgot fhey were playing hockey, and apparently hied themselves back, to the days of Nero, when any form of brutality was considered the cssen ce ot sport Hall's Playing Condemned. While the players of both teams nlayed aggressive hockey from the start the Maple Leafs were the chief offenders, and the climax came about the middle of the second half, when Charley Tobin was laid out by Joe Hall Whether the blow from the stick whJ ch caught Tobin across the temple and measured him on the Ice landed by mere chance is not known, but to the majority of the spectators In close proximity It appeared as it it was deliberately struck to injure and condemnation In the fullest sense of the worl was heaped on the head of the Leaf forward. 'Pegs a Sorry 8Ight, Prior to this nearly every other member of the 'Pegs had been forced to visit the dressing rooms and have gashes patched up.

Tobin, by the wav. had not started the game, but had gone on after Mllner was rendered unfit for further service. This latter accident resulted in the 'Pegs leaving the ice, and it needed but half an ear to learn that the sympathies of the crowd were with them. Disgraceful Playing. Hockey of the sort witnessed last nlKht has no place in Winnipeg.

Not that the publio here expect to see a mild form of Bunday school entertain, nent when they go to a hockey game, but simply for the fact that all sport was eliminated and "the most disgraceful exhibition ever seen here, and one worthy of the fullest condemnation," was the conseusus of opinion after it was a foregone conclusion the 'Pegs would not return to the ice. Why International Disbanded. The game as witnessed last night will go down in the annals of local sport happenings If it could in any measure be classed with sport as the most disgraceful. This sort of hockeywas played in the International league lest season, when the chief aim of some of the players was to "get" the opposing teams best men, whether In this accomplishment they maimed them or not. This probably had no little to do with the International being disbanded, as at this age spectators find no amusement in watching an "athlete'' skate to an opposing player and without hesitation crack him over the head with a stick.

Must Protect Players. If professional hockey Is to become a favorite pastime here measure's must at once be taken to eliminate features of last night and protection given players which insures them of not being carried off the ice an insensible condition. Accidents will happen but there is a great deal of difference between an accident and a blow struclc with deliberate attempt While accidents are deplorable, which so frequentlv happen In hockeyi and while the public here are very fair-minded, still it is safe to assume, Judging by the comment after the game last evening, that another game of a ilmllar sort, will push hockey into ob livlon in Winnipeg. $. ft Injured Players.

The following Is a list of the Injured players, and while It may not tally, on the whole It is correct: Harry Kennedy, deep gash over an eye (requiring stitches). Bert Boulton, nose badly cut (may require stitches). Percy Browne, cut on the face, J. Mllner, face badly injured, including a split nose, injured Jaw and black eyes (stitches required). Billy Kean, cut over an eye (may require stitches).

Charley Tobin, deep wound In the temple (requiring many stitches. Joe Hall, cut over the left eye. Judge of Play Lenient. That the ply resolved itself Into such an exhibition of rough house tactics may be traced in a way to Eddie Cltroux, the Kenora goal-tender, who acted as Judge-of-play, though he cannot be blamed In any way for the Incident which culminated in the 'Pegs leaving the ice. At the start of the game it was easily discernible that It would be aggressive and many of the players got away with little acts which appeared worthy of penalties, but Glr-oux was lenient, and possibly from this reason these offending players imagined they could do nearly anything, and not be censured.

Two Rogrettable Incidents. Joe Hall was the chlof offender of the evening and seemed to be carried way altogether in Hn effort to win. Joe has a reputation for roughing it, but his actions last night exceeded any Incident in which he figured here during the long number of years that ho haspluyed hockey In these parts. Next 10 tho act which terminated the game was a mix-up between Percy Browne and Harry Smith.

ROYAL BOWLING ALLEYS. Attractive Resort Opened Recently Is Already Mecca for Bowlers. Without, doubt bowling is becoming one of the most attractive indoor sports In Winnipeg and the great number of followers are constantly being added to.

Winnipeg numbers some fine alleys and a most noticeable feature Is that they are generally "filled up," which further demonstrates In an undeniable way the popularity of the game.

Vi I si'J "Jaeger" Xmas Gifts World WBBSTUNS GAME POOR Gotch Says lie Will Have to lietire Slashes at O'Jlourke. Frank Gotch, the American catch-as-catch-can champion wrestler, thinks it is an injustice to American wrestler and to the publio to have a man like Joe Rogers attempt to represent America against George Huckenschmidt, the world's champion, in a match for the title. "What right has Tom O'Rourke, of New York, to take a man like Rogers a man I can throw ten times in an houi" to England to represent thla country in a match for the world's championship?" says Gotch. "Why, there are several wrestlers here who can beat Rogers. Fred Beell, of MarshAeld, would make him look like a second-rater.

I don't mind the man going over to get money, but let him go Into his correct class and not post as the American champion, when hu is no where near It. "I have tried hard to get a ith Hackenschmidt for tho Uil two ears, but have not HU'jceetit-u, and the only conclusion to be reached is that he is afraid. The Kansas City convention hall people offerid Jlacken-a-hmldt $5,000 cash for fvo cxhlDltion matches and a purse of to vrestle me for the title, the rame to be split any way he iwis'icd winner take all, 75, 25 or 60 and 60. but ho de-cl'ned all propositions on one pretaxt another. That was wc years ugo, and he still claims to ba champion, tl-thcough he refuses to wi-e le for the title.

He was offered $10,000 to make the match and ho could have had If he had taken it. it was pretty high, and more than he oan make in England in the sam length of time. He Is faint-hearted, in my opinion, and not a good champion. "Ihe wrestling game has become so poor that I will soon be forced to retire to private life. There is not a man in the country Just now good enough to draw a suitable purse with me.

Frank Beel la about the best of them, and, as I have beaten him decisively, there is little chance of another meeting between us. The rest of them do not amount to anything, and if some phenomenon does not spring up soon I am going to quit." CPORT NUCGETS. Latest Happenings Given in Crief Form. BASKETBALL.

Soccer is a shorter nam for association football. It Is played with men on a side and with a round ball very similar to a basketball.

The playing is entirely with the head, feet and body." No one but the goalkeeper Is allowed, to touch the ball with his elbows, forearms or hands. The goal is six feet high, and 18 feet wide, and to kick the ball through counts one point. English rugby, ilka Stanford plays. Is played with an oval ball, tha same as the American gams. There are fifteen players on a side, who carry, kick and pass the ball, as In an exaggerated basketball game.

What is called a scrimmage in the American game Is termed the "scrum" in rugby. When a man tackled with the ball in his possession it is put in play again from the in which the forwards of each team lock arms and shove one another about shoulder to shoulder. The ball is worked out with the feet back to the quarterback, and Btarts upon Its tempestuous career of passing and kicking. A goal is called a try and counts three points. The game requires a Jot of wind, because the scrimmages are not nenrly so frequent as in the American game.

When Fltzslmnv js and Sharkey fought at Coney Island some time after their battle In San Francisco, the sailor, who had improved a great deal In the meantime, rushed at Fitz, swinging both bands. His left caught Fitz on the Jaw and shook him up pretty well. "That's a good one, Tom," Fltx exclulmed. "Yes, and here comes another one," said Sharkey. "I'm not as easy as you think." "Just wait till you see me sink the ship," Fitz prophesied.

The ship, of course, waB the fine, full-rigged three-master that Tom v.id tattooed on his enormous chest. In the next round Fitzsimmons suddenly exclaimed: now, Tom, 'ere goes for your face." Unthinkingly the sailor threw up his guard to protect his Jaw and Just then Fitzsimmons' right, in a fierce up-percut, landed on the keel of that big blue shin like a torpedo. The keel is Just about on Sharkey's solar plexus. The ship reeled, quivered, and slowly sank to the floor with all on board. Tom was a great rallier, however, and in a few secondshe was up and fighting again.

Once more Fitzsimmons told him: "'Ere's one for your face," and as Tom threw up his arm fist landed under the ship again this time poor Tom went down and out. "Oh," said Fitz. "I meant to say 'ere's one for the ship." LADDER RETAINS TITLE Fouled Twice by Minneapolis Man and Uiveu Decision in Tenth. Calgary, Deo. 19.

Billy Lauder, the Canadian lightweight champion, retains his title. He was on for a fifteen round contest with "Kid" Howell, ot Minneapolis, this evening, and got the decision in the tenth round, though the general impression is that Howell deliberately fouled Lauder twice in order to save a. knockout. The fight was fairly even until the sixth round, when Lauder got his man going with a fierce left to the body, and for the next three rounds he played with the Minneapolis man until the two fouls fully Justified Referee Smart in awarding the decision to Lauder, Both weighed In under 130 pounds. Dave Max knocked out "Kid" Merino In the first round of one ot the preliminaries.
