Bob O'Farrell may not manage the St. Louis Cards in 1928, although he probably, will remain in a Cardinal uniform. President Sam Breadon announced today. "I do not want to spoil a good catcher by on his shoulders the responsibilities of management," Breadon said.

In a classic battle of champions, Walter Hagen conquered Tommy Armour today for a semi-finalist position in his fight, to regain for the fifth time the titular laurels of' the Professional Golfers' Association.

Martin Burke, defence player from Port Arthur, was again in the spotlight. Built on the lines of Dune Munro, of the Maroons, Burke plays a game that Is similar to the form of the former Canadian Olympic captain. He uses his weight fairly, but with telling effect, onrushlngr forwards frequently bouncing oft him in a manner which takes away speed. Leo Gaudreault.

popular, amateur here for the past few seasons, fits into the picture better with each practice and the impression of the Canadien followers Is that he will make the grade. Gaudreault, as followers of amateur hockey In Montreal well know, is a player of vast experience, who test when the need is greatest. It was this smart left winger who rallied the Eanque Canadienne Natiohale team In the pinches in their stiff tussles towards the championship of tho Bankers' League In past seasons. A fast, swerving skater, with an excellent shot, Gaudreault plays his position well and is capable of tying up bis check when forced back on the defensive. Jjeo Lafrance, from Duluth, possesses speed, but his chief attribute is his ability to notch goals.

He can pick the corners neatly, a trick which made him one 'of the most 4 feared shots in the old Central League and the American Association. It is apparent that Manager Cecil Hart will again rely on the catapulting speed of Ma players and the deft sticKhandllng of such stars as Morenz, Joliat and Pete Lepine to carry the Canadiens to or near the top this season. Speed Is the dominant factor in the play of all the members of the team, with the exception of Martin Burke, who is siower than his teammates, but who possesses a sufficiently high flight to serve the purpose. His steady blocking makes up for what he lacks in the way of dash and, with a group of fast forwards and defence men, Oanadiens can afford to use one or two players noted for their defensive ability as they have all the hockey, "sprinters' they need. Manager Hart announced that the team would leave for Stratford on Monday night, and play there on Wednesday.
