He is looking in the best of health and outside of a few scars, is none the worse for his hard season's play. "Cully" is a native of this city and has been to the front in many branches of athletics since a mere boy.

He has been out of local sport foer years as he spent three seasons with Toronto in the National Hockey association before joining f.eattle. In the past season Wilson did great work for his team and his goal-getting ability helped Seattle to victory on more than one occasion. WESTERN HOCKEY CLEANER "Cully" is well pleased with his switch from eastern to western hockey. He said: "Play on the coast is much cleaner than in the N.H.A. Players who can last five years in the east can last ten in the west if thev take care of themselves.

The Seattle people took strongly to hockey I considering it was its first year in that city and everybody treat-! e-l us white. The Americans surely like the game, at Port-1 land the rink was crowded at every match. There is some talk 1 of rinks being built in San Francisco and Los Angeles, LAUDS TOMMY MURRAY i "Portland had a good hockey team, but they owe the eham-pionhip to their defence and particularly Tommy Murray. Tommy made a big hit out west and played a remarkable game, he was the surprise package of the league. Charlie Tobin played better than I have ever seen him play and that is saying a good deal.

Poor old Del, it was sure tough for him to go so quick. Irvine was a tower of strength to Portland and had a good future ahead of him at the hockey game." At the close of the hockey sea-I son Wilson tried out with the Tacoma baseball squad and was 1 going good at second until forced to 00 back to Seattle ow- 1 ing to his wife having to under-j go an operation. He afterwards was offered a place with Ross- I land, D.C., the British Columbia Interior ball league. He still has the chance of going there but will likely locate in Winnipeg until next winter. "Cully" hat two brothers in the army, Harry and Emil, the latter is now in England with the 61st Battalion.
