THE OTTAWA JOURNAL S9 Rough Riders Start Preparations for Game With Montreal TUESDAY, OCTOBER Andy Tommy, and Stan O'Neil Recovered From Minor Injuries Johnny Quilty Leaves Montreal for Canadiens' Camp Ask for Neutral Officials Determined to make it two in a row, Rough Riders went right back to work Monday night under the floodlights at Lansdowne Park in preparation for their first home game of the season- with Montreal here this Saturday afternoon. Coach Ross Trimble 'refused to give the team a Monday holiday after their conquest of Hamilton Tigers. Outside of the first quarter of the game in Hamilton the Eastern Canada champions' play did not satisfy the mentor. Since Bill Hughes will bring up a tough, hard-tackling crew from the metropolis Trimble wants Rough Riders sharper than they were in Hamilton. Announcement that Dave Ryan, All-Eastern snapback with Montreal Nationals, of the O.R.F.U., two years ago, had joined the squad yesterday, provides Montreal with added strength on the front line.

Ottawa fans, however, will not see Johnny Quilty, young St. Patrick's College backfielder. in a Montreal uniform. Quilty left Hughes' camp yesterday to join Montreal Canadiens' training campaign. However, Saturday visitors will still have plenty of power in the back division and after their heart-breaking defeat against Argos they figure to provide Rough Riders with a stubborn argument: May Have New Officially la the meantime Emmet Burke, secretary of the Montreal club, has asked that neutral officials be appointed for all future games.

The Montreal team has already asked the Big Four executive that neutral men be in charge of the game here on Saturday. The request came following Montreal's tough' setback against Argos when Umpire Petn Bennett, of Montreal, called a high tackle on the home team on the last play of the game and gave Argos an extra play. Argos scored the winning point after regulation time was up. Kicking Duel Promised. Cordie Noseworthy and Sammy Sward will meet in what could be one of the best kicking duels of the season if both backfielders are up to form.

Against Argos, Noseworthy was one of the spark plug's in the Montreal back division and with so much at stake in this struggle he can be counted on to give the starry Sward an argument. Up front Montreal is well stocked with plunging power. Fellows like Tommy Burnt, Pete Jotkus, Bill Davies. Alex Fleming, Lou Segatore and others command attention in any league. A full turnout was on hand for Rough Riders' long workout last night with the exception of Bobby Hazel and Murray Griffin.

Hazel turned out but was not in uniform while Griffin was excused from practice. There is some question of Hazel continuing football this terferes with his job. Stan O'Neil, who hurt his leg on the last play of the game in Hamilton, was on deck last night. The injury is not a serious one. Andy Tommy, who suffered a minor concussion in the opener under the mountain, reported to the park, fully recovered.

"Only Fair to Everyone." MONTREAL, Oct. 7 (CP) Secretary Emmet Burke of the Montreal football club announced tonight that the club has requested that neutral officials be named for all future games in the Inter-provincial Rugby Football Union. "We feel that it is only fair to the officials themselves and to the teams involved to have a neutral referee, umpire and head linesman for all games'', said Burke. "Therefore, we have asked the Big Four executive to name neutral men for onr fame in Ottawa next Saturday and for all future games." The request came as a result of Montreal's loss Saturday to Toronto Argonauts by 9-8, when Umpire Pean' Bennett, a Mont-realer, ruled a high tackle by Montreal on the last play of the game and gave Argonauts an extra play. The Argonauts made this chance good for a single point on a deadline kick, thereby gaining victory.

"We vare not questioning the honesty of Saturday's Burke said, "but wt feel It would be better for all concerned to have neutral men. It saves the arbiters from being liable to charges either of favoring the home team or leaning over backwards." Toronto and Jack Wilkinson sent his name on for hockey. Louis' St. Denis, a candidate for goal, was on hand. He took P.T.

with the Rough Riders in preparation for his hockey work. Joe Shack and "Sparky" Nicholson, both forward line holdovers, were out getting their equipment shaped up. Somers McGale, the trainer, was the busiest man in the place. George Greene, who will likely play centre on one line, was waiting to see Eddie Powers, who wil be a linemate. Hope springs eternal.

The Ulk that Aces will be a team to watch la again going around. Two newcomers at Quebec City are Frank aStahan and Sta Smith, last year with Lake Shore. There had been a possibility they would detour to Ottawa. Jack Seymour was around. was with Senators before going North to Ontario Refinery at Sud-.

bury and is now back in Ottawa. Bill Touhey came in for a talk but will not play this season.

Possibility of Gene Chouinard, Perth Blue Wings' mentor, coming back Into the consideration was announced as the reason for delaying the decision. Up to yesterday, when Chouinard phoned from Perth, it had been understood that the choice lay between AUie Garland and Fred Magiirn.

of Ottawa, and Jess Spring, of Kirkland Lake. Considering the latest 'development, team officials would not set a tunc for naming the coach, saying only it would be later this week. Although- the practice turnout was cut down when it was learned there would be no ice the new arrivals included the Lemay brothers, last year with St. Hyacinth, and Trevor Higginbottom, a holdover in goal. Eddie Powers, Jr the hard skating right wing, had not shown bp Monday night although he was expected that morning.

Can he go back in and pitch a third game after one day of rest is the problem that only he can answer. It's Baker's problem to decide whether he risks hirn or turns to the veteran Tommy Bridges. Bridges managed to capture the third game, but it wasn't all smooth sailing for the 34-year-old veteran. GATE RfXORD MAY BE SET. IRRESPECTIVE OF WHICH TEAM takes this 1940 World Series, it will go down as one of the richest of all time.

So far the receipts are well over a million dollars, which includes $100,000 paid for the broadcasting rights, and which goes into the players' pool. If the attendance today measures up to previous crowds in Crosley Field the all time record of $1,304,399 may be broken. That total gate was reached in the 1936 "subway" series between the New York Yankees and the New York Giants. The best gate of the series and the ope that can't be beaten is the $224,597 taken in at Detroit on Sunday, when 55,189 were in the stands. The players are battling for more than glory.

They are fighting for something in the neighborhood of $2,000 per man. The Tigers, who cut in no less than 48 persons on their series money, will collect slightly in excess of $6,000 it they win, and a little more than $4,000 each if they lose. Cincinnati's cuts are slightly larger, due to a lesser number of shares. ROWING CLUB LOSES LOYAL FRIEND. "THE OTTAWA ROWING CLUB lost one of its oldest and most loyal friends when John Smith died on Saturday.

Mr. Smith was a quiet worker in the interests of the club and few but its officers knew how many services he had performed for it. His three sons. Jack, Jimmy and Billy, are oarsmen. They rowed in the 140-pound four that won at the Eastern Rowing Association Regatta at Brockville during the Summer.

Their fellow oarsmen extend their deepest sympathy to them.

Six games have gone and the Tigers and Reds have alternated in capturing the decisions. First it was Tigers, hen it was the Reds, and so on down to Bucky Walters' magnificent victory yesterday. No teams more evenly matched have ever faced each other in this annual baseball classic. One afternoon the Tigers have it all and the next the Reds completely dominate the scene. It's a toss-up which club will come up with the winning punch in this last decisive contest.

The odds now appear to be with the National League champions. They have Paul Derringer to hurl. Derringer was in the box Saturday and pitched a five-hit victory. It was his first World Series win. His record of 20 victories as against 12 defeats during the season speaks for itself.

FAME BECKONS TO "BOBO" NEWSOM. AFTERNOON'S BATTLE Manager Del Baker should pitch Newsom. and should "Bobo'' win, he will go down in baseball history as one of the truly greater hurlers of all time. It was Newsom who conquered Reds in the opening encounter. His father was in the stands that afternoon, thrilling in his son's performance.

That evening his father was seized with a heart attack in his hotel room and died. On Saturday, Buck Newsom's dad was buried at Hartsville, S.C., Award Morrisburgs Junior Title A. McLean, of Ottawa, president of the junior section of the Eastern Ontario Baseball Association, last night confirmed Ottawa Mor-risborgs as champions. Prescott, which waa to play the Ottawa team at Carleton Plaee on Saturday refused to go through with the game ordered aa a replay, because Ineligible players were used In Preaeott's win earlier. The Junior E.O.BA.

official said George Fits pa trick. Prescott confirmed the refusal so the Pollock Cup stays with Morrisburgs. Eileen Walker Triple Winner Champions of the St. James Tennis Club were decided over the week-end, as Eileen Walker, the club's leading woman player, wound up the season with a triple championship. Miss Walker defeated "Mrs.

Holly Davidson in the ladies' singles final, paired with Mrs. Davidson to capture the ladies' doubles championship, and for good measure, combined with Nelson Stevenson to take the mixed doubles from Mr. and Mrs. W. M.

Davidson, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3. Keith Cunningham was winner of the men's singles title after a stiff four-set battle with Bob Walker. Cunningham's forecourt display brought him the honors, 6-2, 3-6, 6-2. 6-2. Keith Cunningham partnered Lyle Cunningham to another victory in the men's doubles, where they accounted for Dave Patrick and Dr.

The riding hero at Jamaica in today's opening of the Metropolitan Jockey Club's meeting Johnny Barba figured in one of the most spectacular falls of the season, one that brought the Brooklyn boy serious injury.

The spill occurred in the event that followed the featured Interborough Handicap, which Barba won astride the long-priced Grey Wolf. Barba was on P. T. Chinn's Canape, the favorite in the sixth race. Canape appeared to stumble badly as the field tore for the first turn in full view of the stands.

The gelding went down in- a heap with little Barba and the boy never budged. He was hastily removed from the track, then taken to the track hospital quarters. Quick examination did not divulge the extent of the injury, but it was' reported that Barbs had a bad gash on the head and may have a fractured skull. He was taken to Mary Immaculate Hospital, Jamaica. Barba, born in Brooklyn in 1919, is a veteran jockey and is employed by the Clarence Buxton-Trained Stable of W.

Gallagher. Those who witnessed the accident thought Barba was killed instantly. A few yards after Canape went down, Millshow also stumbled and Wayne Huff slipped out of the saddle. Huff quickly ran off the track, The event was won by Repercussion, which paid $42.10. Count Valiant, the tired pacemaker, was beaten a half length while taking the place from Merry Morn by two lengths.

One of the major upsets came in the featured Interborough Handicap of six iuclongs when Mrs. Alice F. Sherman's Grey Wolf, a $54.80 for two shot, took the first money by a length and a half. Joe W. Brown's T.

The bad news was that Johnny Howard and Johnny Quilty, two young backfielders, are lost for the season. Howard suffered a ruptured kidney from clipping big Red Storey when Montreal lost 9-8 Saturday to Toronto Argonauts. Quilty has left for St Hya clnthe, Que- to torn oat with Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League. To temper this, however. Hughes had two new men on hand for the drill.
