Ottawa, May 28, (Wednesday) (CP) Most Rev. Ildebrando Antoni-utti.

Rosario Brodeur, parish priest of Holy Cross cljurch in the archdiocese of St. Boniface, has been named Titular Bishop of Mideo and Co-Adjutor with right of succession to Rt.

Rev. Felix Couturier, Bishop of Alexandria, which adjoins the Diocese of Ottawa. Bishop Couturier now ii seriously ilL Rt. Rev. George Cabana.

lay Cup race on Monday afternoon and had the event won until Glashan ran out on the track to pace home the number-four man, thereby committing a technical foul, 1 thereby losing the cup. "But there's always next year said Brother Hugh and let that topic pass. Although an all-around athlete while at college, the McGee mentor's top sport is still baseball. They don't play that in high schools here so he passes his time with track in the spring, football in the fall and hockey in the winter. In the latter two.

he coaches the junior squads. He'll tell you, if you ask him, that high school sport is going to be the thing of the future with all other teams being depleted by the Air Force. Army and Navy- "It takes too much out of a city," he said, "to put out a big aggregation. It's too uncertain." Brother Hugh was now ready to go out for a 440 sprint of his own, but he paused just long enough to outline McGee's future track prospects. Glashan, he estimated, w-ould be around for four more years and will do more point-winning.

Likewise Quinn who has one more year. In the junior ranks, Justin Kisielius and Leonard Huntoon. both of whom picked up considerable experience without winning anything on Saturday, will take up the slack when the seniors leave the premises. "And anyway," the mild-mannered Brother Hugh suddenly wanted to know, "what do you mean next year? What about the junior pro vincial open on June 7 and the Catholic High Schools event in the baseball stadium on the 11th. I think I'll just forget the future and see what can be done about right now." And so saying.

Brother Hugh wandered out the door and called 'his boys together for a pep talk, probably with that very idea in mind. and went to third on Johnny Ty ler's hit but Flowers bore down to strike out Morgan and get himself out or a note. He allowed only two hits over the rest of the route. Royals pulled off a smart double play to help things along in the sixth. With one away Todd walked and Eaves was called upon to sacrifice.

His bunt was snapped up by Franks and whipped to Corbitt, who relayed it to Campbell for the Royals' 46th twin killing of the year. In the eighth fine fielding saved Flowers possible trouble too. Yount opened with a single and went to second on Jensen error. He stay ed there as Hill grounded out, but then Lillard lifted a high handle- hit far over behind third base. Corbitt went speeding away out to tske the ball on the foul line and the game ended as Jensen raced away back to centre to drag in Todd's drive.

Wood died last night in hospital here after an operation about two weeks ago for a stomach ailment. INDIAN ACT AMENDED Ottawa Moves to Bar Exploitation on Furs Ottawa, May 27.

Q) Amendments to the Indian Act to provide against exploitation of the Indian population by unscrupulous fur traders were passed through all stages jn the House of Commons tonight, sponsored by Resources Minister Crerar. The amendments provide that no person may purchase furs from Indians without permission from the Indian agent. The Minister said there were about 119,000 Indians in Canada and about one-third of them lived in remote districts where they were dependent almost entirely upon the fur catoh. It was important these Indians should receive the full benefit of their efforts, Mr. Crerar said, and the bill was designed to prevent them being deprived of proper re turns.

Expresses Doubt of Value of Having Equipment on Free List CRITICISM IN SENATE Excess Profits Tax Amend- ments Lauded as Lightening Burden on Companies Ottawa, May 27. SCR Doubt as to the value of placing items such as oil drilling machinery on the tariff free list at this time was expressed by Senator Arthur Meighcn, Opposition Leader, in discussing Budget amendments to the tariff in the Upper House tonight. Senator Raoul Dandurand, Government Leader, said western provinces had felt oil production could be increased and machinery was required, and Senator W. D. Euler Ontario), said if drilling machinery were admitted free, oil production might be increased and oil imports from the United States could be reduced.

Senator Meighcn said that Senator Euler's argument might be correct, but he feared this and similar tariff changes would reduce federal revenues. He wondered why such free admissions had not prevailed before, and were being made effective now. Senator Meighen commended amendments to the Excess Profits Act, since they lightened the burden on referee boards and gave relief to companies which had found difficulty in surviving in four previous years. The Opposition leader said the United Kingdom had a 100-per cent, tax on excess profits, but he would rather pay 100 per cent, under the British system than 75 per cent, under the Canadian taxing system. The main British taxes were against the individual who drew money from the corporation rather than against the corporation itself.

By leaving corporations comparatively free of taxation more dividends were paid. In collecting from individuals who received these dividends the state obtained more, since the instrument who produced the wealth is left to flourish. Senator Meighen said he did not sympathize with those foreign holders of Canadian securities "who howl against having to pay our taxes." Senator John T. Haig Manitoba) introduced a bill to amend the Unemployment Insurance Act to provide that the Unemployment Insurance Commission co-operate with other Dominion and provincial authorities to collect information concerning any plan for providing medical care or compensation in case of ill-health. It received first reading.

A similar bill was introduced in the Commons previously by Dr. H. A. Bruce Toronto-Parkdale). The bill amending the Excess Profits Act was referred to the Senate Banking and Commerce Committee.

Other measures arising from the Budget were given second reading and will come up for third reading when the Upper House resumes work tomorrow afternoon. Commons Rises Earlier To Listen to President Ottawa, May 27. Cfc Members of the House of Commons, released from their deliberations three-quarters of an hour early, listened intently to President Roosevelt's speech to the American people tonight before radio sets in their Centre Block offices or in their homes. The House, which usually ad journs at 11 rose at 10:15 at the suggestion of Prime Minister Mackenzie King so members could hear the broadcast in which Mr. Roosevelt announced he had issued a proclamation declaring an "un- FIFTEEN YEARS AGO; MAY 28.

He was ridden by Eddie Walsh. their club on the Q.A.H.A. board was turned down flat; a letter will be sent by the Q.A.H.A. to the C.A.H.A. asking that Western playoffs be reduced all along the line, and a committee was appointed to see that the junior Royals receive from the Q.A.H.A.

some recognition of their entrance into the Memorial Cup finals. These donations will probably take the form of either windbreakers or rings. A request frcn Don Penniston. coach of the Quebec Royal Rifles of the Quebec Senior League, to obtain an import replacement for Jim Sutherland, who joined the armed forces last winter was held in abeyance, while the meeting voted $3,000 for Victory Loan bonds, which is in addition to $4,000 subscribed for the first war loan. OTTAWA FOLLOWS LEAD Secretary Duncan Expresses Approval for New Association Ottawa, May 27.

CT Formation of a New Eastern Canadian Amateur Hockey Association comprising Quebec, Ottawa and the Maritimes would receive the "unqualified approval" of the Ottawa and District Hockey Association, secretary Cecil Duncan said tonight. "Such an action has been under consideration by our association for some time," Duncan said, "and it has come to a head, particularly in view of the attitude of the western branches of the C.A.H.A. in voting on matters pertaining to the playdowns." Duncan charged that the frequently was more concerned with "commercial considerations" than it was with the welfare of its various branches. The new set-up was proposed by George Slater, president of the Quebec Senior Hockey League, after the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association, in a special meeting at Montreal tonight, expressed disapproval of its relations with the C.A.HJV. Duncan said he did not care to discuss specific details of the O.D.

H.A.'s differences with the C.A.H.A. but declared he "definitely disap proved" the playoff split made by the C.A.H.A. to the eastern associations. He said most of his objections to the C.A.H.A.'s policy related only to senior hockey. James McCaffrey, business manager of Ottawa Senators of the Quebec Senior League, said he made the original suggestion that a new eastern asociation be formed at a meeting of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association in Montreal "about a month ago." "And, naturally, on that basis, I warmly endorse the motion made by the Q.A.H.A.." McCaffrey said.

C.A.H.A. MEETING SET President Dudley Withholds Statement Until Tomorrow Toronto. May 27. George Dudley of Midland, Ont, president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, said tonight he would probably have some statement to make tomorrow on the proposal of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association to form a new Eastern Canada Hockey Association to comprise Quebec, Ottawa and the Maritimes. Dudley, who stated he had not been informed of the Quebec move, is in Toronto for a meeting tomorrow with other C.A.H.A.

officers and will discuss the proposal with them. Dudley said his Toronto visit originally was in connection with business apart from the Q.A.H.A. proposal. The proposal was made at a meeting in Montreal of the Quebec Association tonight. Relay Meet Tonight in M.A.

LEAD (Continued from Page 16.) Hill's No. 1 shins for a single. Break Break No. 2 was not long coming. Alex Kampouris, who had doubled off the left-field fence in the fourth and scored the first Montreal on Roy Hughes' long single, slapped a grounder down at Hill again and the third-sacker snapped this one up cleanly and whipped the ball over.

To all intents and purposes, Kampouris was out. However. Hills throw was high Quebec Takes Initiative, Hoping Ottawa District and Maritimes Follow Suit HAS TWO-FOLD AIM Would Reduce Number of Playdowns Under C.A.H.A. Control and Keep More Gate Receipts Here By LLOYD LOCKHART. The first step by the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association towards secession from the C.A.H.A.

took place in a Montreal hotel room last night with the next due to come from Ottawa and the third possibly from the Maritimes. A full executive meeting of th.5 QA.HA not only expressed various forms cf dissatisfaction with the current set-up of the parent body, together with the financial arrangements attendant upon the Allan Cup playdowns. but put out feelers for the erablishment of an Eastern Canadian Hockey Association, this to be independent from the OA.H.A. in the matter of deciding a winner to enter the Dominion semi-finals, and still more import-ax, in the matter of gate receipts. Proposed by George Slater, convener of the Q.S H.L, and passed without opposition, the motion called for an immediate invitation to Cecil Duncan, past president of the A.H and W.

George, president cf the Ottawa branch, to attend a meeting here for further perusal cf the question, probably next week. If the support of Ottawa is obtained, end It is thought it will be. the two bodies would then try to enlist the Maritimes for a three-wav front against the C.A.H.A. The at the outset had its guns levelled at some such enactment, since it had- been postponed as long as possible ir hopes that Dr. W.

G. Hardv. another past president of the C.A.H.A., would be here to attend. As it was. the understanding was left with the members that if Dr.

Hardy did come to Montreal, a hurry-up meeting would be called with George Dudley, current president of the C.A.H.A., alio to be on the scene. NEW SYSTEM OUTLINED For six years, Slater said, the present playoff terms had proven ineffectual, with any club which d.d manage to make the finals au-tomatically facing bankruptcy. If recession were achieved each branch would resign from the parent body separately, form themselves into a new association, then apply for re-entrance as such. Confidence that such an arrangement would operate in like manner to the setup cf the OH. A.

and the N.O.HA. and that the application would be accepted were part of the platform. Under the current system once the Allan Cup eliminations pass beyond the precincts of a local jeague. all gate receipts belong to the Canadian association, leaving the individual clubs with the same overhead as they had all season and usually inadequate expense accounts to pay their way. Montreal alone, during the past three years, added $52,000 to the C.A.H-A.

coffers. Still another nudge was taken at the CA.H-A. when the meeting moved to have that body accountable for all expenses incurred by the A.HA. for all playoff games in Montreal. In the Winnipeg-Junior Royals series alone.

President Norman Dawe said, $75 was consumed in telephone calls between himself and the C.A.H.A., with none of this having been billed to the latter. Several minor items were also handled. Dawe said two telegrams had been sent to Parliament protesting the 20 per cent, levy on sports tickets, but this was not done as an action of the A.H A. One member protested that this tax was more justifiable than the 15 per cent, provincial impost already effective, but no legislation was passed to p'ws the Q.A.H.A. a stand on the matter.

A request by the Quebec Royal to have a representative of By LLOYD Brother Hugh was out at Molson Stadium again yesterday afternoon, still riding herd on his D'Arcy Mc-Gee track tjam and still standing as the best possible reason behind that school finishing as runner-up to Glebe in the McGill interscholas-tic event of last Saturday. For, three years ago, Brother Hugh came here from Aurora, Ontario, and found McGee entries at a low ebb. They hadn't won an event in years and even by indulgent standards their point-total was never high or even nearly so. Brother Hugh also found that when track and field silverware was handed out McGee was always on the way home, empty-handed. The first year of his influence, which was 1939, didn't show much imDrovement and neither did 1940.

"But some boys," he relates, "dM nut in fair practice with two or them in particular. Bob Glashan and Arcy showing some kind of natural promise. I believe that practice makes points and with gradual improvement being shown, more and more boys came over here after school for a lap or two or a turn in the pits. I think we trained haraer than anybody else for that McGill event and that was maybe what paid off." "I learned," he continued, "about the low entry list beforehand and immediately shoved in all our avail able manpower, figuring that if ever there was a year in which we could shine, this was it Well as it happened I guess we did. Glashan and Quinn each took a first, we won another event in the field de partment, gained 44 points and led the Montreal schools in the chase.

Not bad. particularly for McGee." What Brother Hugh didn't mention was that McGee did something else. It entered the Elmhurst Re- and Eddie Morgan, the first-baseman had to go into the air after it Umpire Chet Swanson ruled Morgan had gone off the bag, Kampouris was safe and it was an error for Hill. Break No. 2.

That wasn't all. There wasnt anything lucky about Woody Jensen's clean single to right-field that load ed the bases, but wait a while. Hughes came up and Eaves worked on him carefully, so carefully in fact that the best Roy could do was slap a hard grounder down towards second base, where Al Rubeling snapped it up. Everybody was running as Rubeling crossed second for the force-out, then whirled to throw to first for the double play. Break No.

3 1 came in right there. Rubelings feet slipped in the semi-mud, he fell and Hughes was safe. Instead of there being three out, there were only two and the tying run was in with two men still on. Just to prove that they didn't depend entirely on luck, the Royals promptly won the game as Jack Graham, going along at a terrific batting pace for the Royals now after a terrible start, smacked his second hit of the night to left centre and brought in Kampouris with the tally that settled things. BLACKBURNE EJECTED.

Lena Blackburne, the Toronto manager, was so put out by Swan-son's decision on Kampouris at first base that he was tossed out of the game for telling Swanson what he thought of him. Royals may or may not have got another break when the game was called at the end of eight innings to allow both teams to catch a train for Toronto, where they open a brief series tonight as the Montreal team starts its second road trip of the year, returning June 15. Sammy Bell, whose hitting this year has been little short of remarkable, came through again with two singles and a double to pace the Montreal assault while Corbitt, Jensen and Graham got a pair apiece. The only players failing to hit were Herman Franks and Flowers himself. Flowers was in trouble in only one inning, the fourth.

He opened that frame by fanning FJoyd Yount. but then Hill beat out scratch single and Wes hit Bill Lillard with a pitched ball. Al Todd's long double brought both runners home. Eaves forced Todd namonton Dy railway i Edmonton, May 27. KB Canada's symbolic torch of victory was welcomed to Edmonton today as downtown thousands watched it pass along streets hung with flags and pennants.

The beacon, an emblem of Canadians' loyalty to the British cause and a promotion feature for the $600,000,000 Victory Loan campaign which begins June 2, arrived by train from Calgary instead of being flown here in a Royal Canadian Air Force bomber plane as originally planned. The bomber, piloted by D. E. Galloway, formerly of Montreal, arrived here last night from Calgary where the torch was dedicated after bad weather had forced cancellation of all scheduled outdoor events. In Edmonton, the planned ceremony of arrival was carried out at the city airport just as if the bomber with the torch in it had just reached the city.

VETERAN OF R.C.M.P. IS ABOUT TO RETIRE Assistant Commissioner Irvine Ready to Do Any Job to Help War Effort Regina. May 27. (CP) T. H.

Irvine, who came to Canada from England to find adventure and who has since written for himself a success story in pohce work, retires on superannuation this week-end as assistant commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Hale and hearty at 65, Assistant Commissioner Irvine, after 33 years of service with the mounties and some time with the 21st Empress of India Lancers before that, is looking forward to a six month holiday then he is going to try and find a place in any capacity to help in Canada's war effort "I do not care what I do," he smiled, "so long as I do something. I am going to offer my services in any capacity." In 1926 and 1927 Assistant Commissioner Irvine spent his days al ternately between eastern and west ern centres, working principally in tdmonton. as ne prepared for the amalgamation of the eastern Arctic and western Arctic divisions of the R.C.M.P. and in this work he travelled extensively in the north.

A ne Axis penetration of the Western Desert wastes of Egypt and continuing British clean-up in rainswept Ethiopia stirred the African warfronta today. The Middle East command said a number of small Axis columns advanced several miles eastward int Egypt but that the elastic British defences were harassing and slowing down the thrust British sources placed the cen about 10 miles east of the Egyptian-Libvan border around Halfaya (Hellfire) Pass. Tobruk, where a British garrison Is besieged, continues to hold firm. South African troops reported, from Soddu, Ethiopia, the capture of a complete Italian artillery group with eight guns, and the Middle East command said the roundup cf scattered Italian forces continued in the lakes region. Heavy rains up operations of both sides elsewhere.

The Royal Air Force announced another bombardment of Bengazi. Libya, a raid on an airdrome on the island of Scarpanto. and attacks on Axis merchantman off the North African coast. While the military command pictured the Iraq situation as "unchanged." the 11 A F. reported it bombed Mosul airdrome yesterjay, setting fires, and that Orman planes again bombed the lict.sn Habbanivah airdrome without causing damaec The British-German throughout the Middle East was described here as still a race get war equipment into combat area.5.

Finally, when that round ended, the bell was clearly audible. In between the first and sixth, not a great deal happened. Louis cut loose a bit in the second and beat a tattoo all over the massive target that was Buddy, and all Baer did was to stagger about and swing wildly.

When Buddy was able to do what he wanted to do, he seemed to prefer to stay close to the champion no Louis would not have too much elbow-room, and all the while Buddy kept his big left shoulder up shielding his chin. But the close-range work was all right with the Brown Bomber for he kept driving home short, jolting blows to the body and whipping uppercuts to Baer's chin. Buddy pushed and shoved and wrestled a lot, and once in while would put one arm around Louis' neck and try cuffing at his imprisoned foe with his ether hand, but these efforts did not last long. Louis was a much more accurate sharp-shooter all the way, the pictures showed, but he did not really open full fire again until the sixth. In the meantime there had been some dull interludes.

Once the audience in the theatre tittered when in the fifth round, the two gladiators waltzed completely across the ring wrapped in each other's arms; just a little while before the commentator had made some remark about the "furious action continuing." LOOS DOES A JOB ON HIS FOE But in the sixth, Louis went to work on his man. He poured punches in on Baer, and Buddy's head was jerking up and down from the impact of Louis's drum-firing fists. Joe might as well have been pounding a defenceless punching-bag. Finally, Buddy, staggering and nearly helpless, went into a corkscrew spin, his legs doing a remarkable if involuntarily imitation of rubber-legged Leon Errol. Baer got up from that to meet another savage onslaught and this time Louis was patently measuring his man carefully for almost every blew.

A smashing right stretched Buddy flat on his back. At nine he arose to precipitate all the confusion that followed. But "late punch" or no "late punch," Buddy looked to be in no shape by then to have stood up much longer before Louis, even if the ending had ben different. BUY FREEDOM BY BUYING VICTORY.
