FINCH PRESIDENT Past President S. C. Holland and Vice-President Leo Burns Furnished Fireworks of Meeting The first real advance toward rais ing the standard of hockey in this province was made at the annual meeting of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association on Saturday af ternoon, when President Finch sub mitted a plan to the delegates which promises to meet with the unqualified approbation of practically all officials of clubs in the ranks of the associ ation. Under the present system, club3 wishing to affiliate with the associ ation do so in groups, or leagues Kach year a number of new leagues join the association, and the subse quent redistribution of the playinj material lowers the standard of all leagues. This state of affairs has teen the annual recurrence ever since the disbandment of the old Pro vincial League many years ago.

Under the new plan olubs would enter the association as clubs only, ana wouia be grouped by the asso ciation according to the system at present practised by the O.H.A. Thi3 would nable the authorities to pre vent the operation of too many clubs in districts where the number of hockey jplayers is limited. Clubs already operating in a given district would be protected from harmful competition by being given the right to decide whether or not a 'new league couw be accommodated in their dis trict. They would thus be protected in much the same way that profes sional baseball olubs are protected under the territorial laws of the Xa tional Association. Clubs in districts, where the form-ption of a group is impractical or im possible would be accepted (for mem-oership and given (permission to play exhibition games with association members during the season, and al lowed to play in the eliminations for the various provincial cnampion ships.

The plan appears to be a big step the right direction. It has been proposed at various times by past officers of the Q.A.H.A., but this is the first, year it has been given careful consideration. The details will drawn up by a committee compos ed of President finch, W. R. Granger, and T.

Fuller. The committee will plso revise the constitution xf the A.H.A. E. J. C.

Finch was re-eleced as president, and Leo Burns as vice-president. After a ioijg discussion, ana a close vote, Mr. rianrahan, yue ec, was elected second vice-presi dent. The office.of honorary secret ary -treasurer will be filled during the coming year by Frank Morrissey, ot the local Bank League. The meeting was insistent that James Lalanne continue in office, but Mr.

Lalanne was just as insistent that he retire. He has filled the office of secretary-treasurer of the association for the ipast two years in a creditable manner. A vote of thanks was accorded Mr. Lalanne by the meeting for his services during the past two years. 1 The registration committee, in addition to the executive, will include James MacDonald and Frank Green-leaf.

H. Fontaine was elected chairman of the Quebec Registration Board: and A. W.

MONTREAL over. nifo I AFTER PENNANTS ew York Clubs To Start Campaign For Fourth Straight Victories OTHER CLUBS IMPROVED Pittsburgh, Chicago White Sox, Detroit and Cleveland Regarded As Dangerous Contenders New York, April 13. Far from having Its pennant appetite dulled by the successive triumphs of the Yankees and Giants over the past three seasons. New York's baseball random has marshalled itself be hind McGraw and Huggins in their attempts to set diamond's history bv making it four straight flag victories this season.

Across Brooklyn bridge, the third metropolitan entry, the Dodeers. have shaped their line-up for a vigorous campaign, but the chance that Hilbert Robinson's men will escape the second division is slim or the two Manhattan clubs, the Yankees appear the stronger, with their world championship line-up imact ior opening day next Tuesdav with the Red Sox at Boston. Except to add reserve strength, Including a promising outfielder in Earl Combs Muggins has stood pat on his 1923 C1UD. The Giants have been substantially rebuilt by McGraw, who believes he lias acquired new pitching strength in several rookies. notably Dean, aiaun ana besides Terry, a promising first sacker.

Baseball experts of Pittsburgh, af ter a critical analysis of the Pirato 924 machine, are convinced that with good pitching, the team will be close to the top of the heap when the season ends. Glen Wright, the sensational recruit shortstop, who will step into Mai-anville's shoes, has added great strongth to the all-star infield nf Grimm, at first; the- Rabbit, at second, and Traynor. at third. Morrison. Meadows.

Cooper and Kremer compose the pitching staff, with Babe Adams and Steineder helpine out on the mound. The Detroit Tigers will open the season with practically the cume line-up that appeared in last sea son opener. The infield remains intact. Apprehension is felt, however, as to the ability of Shortstop Higney, who hac had trouble with his hip, and Second-baseman Pratt. who had a bad season last year.

Blue at nrst and Jones at third are ex pected to contribute their share to the Tigers' success. The outfield will not be changed materially. Strengthened at first base by the signing of George Burns and with better batters than for several years, Cleveland is sure to be in the fight for the American League pennant, according to E. S. Barnard, president of the club.

In Jamieson, Stephen son. Speaker, Joe Kewell, Bums and Summa, the first six men in the line-up, all of whom have batted better than .800, the team "wrecking" crew that ranks with any other In the league. Myatt, Uhle and Lutzke may be added to the list of those within the circle of .300 hit ters or close to it. With Frank Chance, who piloted the Chicago Cubs to four pennants 15 years ago, as the new manager of the Chicago Americans, President Comiskey of the White Sox, tonight predicts his team will be up there fighting. The principal change in the Sox line-up this season will be the appearance of Shortstop Dash-lell, of Shreveport (Texas League.

Joe Rabbitt, from Muskogee, may force one of the veteran outfielders to the bench, and Assistant Manager Johnny Evers, who conducted the spring training, feels that many ot the young pitchers carried by the Sox last year are about ready tar regular turns in the box, especially Blankenship, Leverett and Cvengros. STEEL-SHAFT CLUBS SANCTIONED IN U.S. Golf Association Ruling Removed Difference Between East and West Bodies Chicago. April 13. Sanction of steel shaft golf clubs by the United States, Golf Association yesterday removed the only open difference between that body and the Western Golf Association, which, after thorough trials two years ago, author ized the use of steel-shaft clubs in tournament.

Shortly after metal shafts were placed on the market, objection was raised to their use on the ground that they furnished a mechanical aid to long and straight driving. The makers declared that, while the shafts were not Inferior to first class hickory, they did not of themselves make a good driver out. of a mediocre golfer, but that the steel shaft retained Its elasticity and torsional spring Indefinitely, while hickory gradually deteriorated, and had to be replaced. Secured Victory Over H. L.

Silverstone in Provincial Championships at McGill PROF. N0BBS THIRD Duels Presented Display of Excellent Swordsmanship No United States Representatives Max N. Crestohl, McGill Fencing Club, on Saturday won the provincial fencing championship laurels com peted for at McGill Union, a feat which came as the finale to a pie thora of duels which, varying from the brilliant to ihe mediocre, were replete with thrills and consistently good sportsmanship. It had been originally planned that three pools of five men and one of six would com pete, but owing to Ramsay Traquoir and H. P.

Bell, of the Montreal fencing Club, withdrawing, and the three United States representatives not turning up, this was reduced to two pjols of five men and one ot six. hese preliminaries, therefore, were during the afternoon, an which resulted in si.c duellists surviving for the finals night. The judges awarded the decision to the fencer who secured the first five hits, and the summary of the final pool showed that Crestohl gained five wins: H. L. Silverstone.

McGill, four wins; Professor Nobbs, Montreal Fencing Club, three win3: Sutherland, Swords Club, two wins: Maguire. Swords Club, one win, and C. E. Furse. M.F.C., none.

In the main the duels offered a display of unusually good swordsmanship, although there were not Infrequent breaches of etiquette, a circumstance which was obviously distressing to a number of spectators, who, imbued with the real spirit of the duel, saw In it a game of ceremonies as well as swords. There were no more pleasing duels than those staged by Furse and Pro fessor Nobbs. both of whose handling of foils, recognition of etiquette and general bearing attained alf the high sporting tactics demanded by this distinguished pastime, Kurse had certainly a run of batt luck in the final pool, and although he actually lost all his duels, it was generally conceded that his fencing was of the superlative order. This was the more enhanced by the readiness with which he admitted a hit, a characteristic which was noticeably lacking in some of the contestants. His bout with Macuire.

another sportsman, i was wonderfully thrilling, Maguire winning by but one hit. BRILLIANT ENCOUNTERS. Maguire, incidentally, figured ii some particularly brilliant encoun ters, as did Professor Nobbs, both of whose quick aggressiveness and continual clean swordsmanship was a delight. This also applies to Suth erland, and not less so to Crestohl and Silverstone, although the enthu slasm of the last two named occa sionally secured them a hit when, had etiquette been strictly adhered to, they might not have done so. From the more pure point of fencing, also, they were both lacking in di rection and not infrequently resorted to jabbing and slashing as removed from the clear, scientific and, one might say, dignified hits of other contestants.

New York, April 13. The Yankees and Robins ended their exhibition series at the stadium today with a ten inning game that provided a Sunday crowd of 15.000 persons with a view of two different brands- of baseball and practically every possible play, including doubles, triples and homers, wild pitches and passed balls, double plays and stolen bases, and the baseball hungry fans went away satisfied when Bob Meusel belted a single to centre with the bases filled in the tenth and sent Whitey Witt scampering home with the run that won for the Yanks, 6 to 5. 1 In fact it was mostly the doings of Mr.

Meusel that accounted for the downfall of the Robins and the triumph of the Yanks. Bustin' Bob besides his timely single in the tenth, sent the ball sailing Into the left field bleachers for a home run in the sixth when the bases were again filled, and as the Robins had a one run lead at this period of the game, the circuit clout sent the world's champions ahead. In the seventh Brooklyn managed to take back the four runs thus obtained by the aforesaid Mr. Meusel's homer, and again were one run in front, but a double by Schang and two long flies tied the score in the last half of the inning and Meusel did the rest in tenth. Hoyt and Grimes started the battle as rival pitchers and had a mound duel going nicely for the first five innings of the contest Each allowed four hits during the five frames, but kept them well 1 anA HcVitonpil un In the oinches.

The batters ot botn teams i were turned back with monotonous regularity until the Robins came to bat in the fourth. Jimmy jonnsmn opened the inning with a periect hunt towards third, and Hoyt, who fielded the ball, had no cnance oi catching the fleet Jimmy on nis way to first. Wheat went out, grounded to short, and Scott took Fournier at second in an attempt to swing a rinllhle Tllav. Except for that, iioyt ana unmcs turned back the opposing batters with ease and pitching was the big factor. But in the sixth Manager Huggins sent Joe Bush in to relieve Hnvt and Manager Robinson elect H-Art Ueeatur to finish the game for the Brooklyn team.

The entry of these two hurlers changed the whole Dtmnsnhern of the game, and the Mttora came into their own. Brooklyn New York Rottprips Grimes, Decatur and Gonzales; Hoyt, Bush and scnang. Exhibition Baseball SATURDAY GAMES. At Springfield, Mass. R.

SOClRlLAYElSlN INITIAL WORKOUTS Majority of Clubs Started Out door Training Saturday on Wet Grounds With the opening of he soccer season but two weeks away, all over Montreal and district on Saturday afternoon soccer players, from the smallest junior to the biggest sen lor, could be seen out practising on what dry pieces of ground were available.

There were few sites which a referee would have termed "officially playable," but it took more than a soggy ground, chilly after noon, with a shower of rain thrown in. to dampen the spirits of the in trepid soccer men who were impatient for an opportunity to chase the leathern sphere after the long winter's lethargy. In most cases little attempt was made to play a regulation match. Some teams had sufficient for two sides, in some instances two clubs combined for a. game, while others contented themselves with "shooting for eoa'l." When the shower of rain started in the afternoon some of the more timid ones called a nait, but it failed to dampen the ardour of the majority who kept on as long as the light was good.

In the dusk, groups of soccer players could be seen wending their way to their various clubhouses, mud-bespattered, tired looking, but apparently happy after the first afternoon at their favorite outdoor snort. Fletcher field was, a favorite spot for clubs whose grounds are not yet available. In addition to numerous unattached men playing with out uniforms, no less than five clubs made1 use of the public field. Royal Highlanders combined with Imperial Tobacco for. a practice game; uren adiers hatf fourteen men out on a snot ODDOsite the armory, while Thistles and Royal Victoria Hospit al had their men out In uniform.

With few counter attractions, en thusiasm in the soccer team is at a high pitch at Beloeil and the chilly afternoon failed to deter a large crowd of supporters who turned out to witness the first trial match of the out of town club. Attention was focussed on the new men who have been added to the team, and while they shaped up well, the playing conditions were not good enough to form an opinion as to meir merits. Canadian Vickers are wen pieasea with their prospects after the initial trial at Longue Pointe on Saturday afternoon, two sides putting in a strenuous workout, white Locos formed a good opinion of some of their newcomers after seeing the practice on the old grounds.

Arrangements have been made by several of the clubs to utilize the holiday next Friday for field training. GARDNER AS CAPTAIN Will Lead U.S. Walker Cup Golf Team New York, April 13.

Mr. Burns was much perturbed by the accusations, and did not hesitate -to tell the delegates what he thought of them.

The remarks of Mr. Hol-land appeared unjust, and this was borne out by a few remarks of Jim Lalanne, which did much to smooth the troubled waters. Mr. Burns had always acted In the best Interests of the association, and his conduct had 2 at all times been above reproach, Mr. Lalanne declared.

Mr. Burns came out of the conflict with flying colors, as Holland re-: tracted his accusations against urns; but still maintained that the Eastern Canada League officials had been unfairly dealt with.
