The visitors put up a determined scrap against Alumni, but tholr best work was done in the early stages of the first half. Once on the march In the late minutes of the first period Alumni refused to be stopped.

In the second half Montreal was unable to cope with Windsor's clever passing, neat ball-hanil-Ung, accurate shooting and sturdy deiensive play. At one time during the. first half Montreal was leading 14-9 and seemed to have Alumni on the run but a belated rally wiped out the margin Just as In Friday's session. Montreal did not notch a single point In the second half until after 15 minutes of that period had elapsed.

Two other vice-presidents to represent the Quebec City and Sherbrooke districts, will also be named at a later date. In addition to being elected to a position on the executive committee, Leo Burns was named to life membership in the association.

Mr. Burns is the second man to receive this honor, James deLalanne having previously been honored by the association. The meeting was mostly of a routine nature and it was largely occupied with the reading of annual reports. The financial statement disclosed the fact that the association has a credit balance of $3,939.01, the largest in the 12 years the body has been in operation. Total receipts for the year were $5,286.16.

Registrar-treasurer F. Brown's report showed that a total of 1.709 players were registered, with the association last season, of which 210 were with senior 237 with intermediate teams and 278 with junior outfits. The balance are members of juvenile, midget, bantam and commercial teams. At the suggestion of Leo Bums, two funds of $1,000 and $500 were created.
