ELIMINATION BOUTS TO DISCOVER A NEW MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMP New York, Oct. 24. Lou Hogash, of Bridgeport, and Pal Reed, of Boston, will box 12 rounds to-night in the first of a series of elimiantion contests among eight contenders picked by the state athletic commission battle for the world's middleweight championship in New York.

GUIS ON 11 TO DEFEND HIS TITLE Carpentier Issues Challenge to His Conqueror For Return Bout Reply Awaited by Descamps, But Bout Is Not Likely to Be Staged For Awhile Paris, Oct.

24. Georges Carpentier has issued a formal challenge to Battling Siki for a return -bout, the month's interim provided by the French boxing federation rules having elapsed since the Senegalese captured the heavyweight championship of Europe by his sensational knockout of Carpentier in the six round of their meeting here. Francois Descamps. Carpentler's manager, is now awaiting a reply from-M. Hellers, Siki's manager, but in any case it is improbable that the bout will be arranged for some time to come.

For 1922-1923 rm LEADERS TACKLING TAIL-END ELEVENS Weiler's Meet Fitz's and Bays Play Garrison in Wednesday League Games Two of Weiler's Players Sus pended and Will Not Be Able to Play To-morrow The tail-end clubs in the Wednesday Football League will try and hang a tin-can to the tail of the two leaders in to-morrow's fixtures. Fitz's whirlwinds are due to take on Weiler's at Beacon Hill and the Garrison will attempt to lower the colors of the Hudson's Bay Company at the Royal Athletic Park. Fitz's and the Garrison have had to sit down below and gaze up the ladder since the league opened, but they are expecting to do a scaling ftunt in the immediate future. The Garrison have a very strong team, which has not been functioning properly of late, but systematic training has got the eleven going well. F'itz's are spending their first year in soccer and the club necessarily needed some time to settle down, but Percy Fitzsimmons, their energetic manager, believes that they are ready for the gun now and will start treading on somebody's heels.

Will They Fall? The question is going the round in Wednesday football circles as to whether or not the leaders will be able to stave off the strong attack of the tail-enders. Weiler's must take the field tomorrow minus two of their stalwarts who have been suspended. Bob Livingstone, a forward, and J. Sweeton, star centre half, will have to watch to-morrow's game from the sidelines. Both men were sent from the field in last Wednesday's game with the Hudson's Bay, which ended in a draw.

The District Governing Board of the li. F. A. has dealt with the two players and Livingstone has been suspended for one week and Sweeton must stay out for two weeks. Whether the absence of these two players will halt Weiler's progress in the league is an open question.

The leaders have some sterling substitutes and may be able to pull through. Getting Their Bumps. The leading teams in the Wednesday League have had their bumps this season. First the Hudson's Bay who got away to a flying start, were Drought up with a jerk by the District Governing Board for playing George Allen, who had previously signed with the Wests. The Bays were forced to drop two points as a result of using Allen.

Now Weiler's are lasooed with two penalties, although not quite as costly as that imposed upon the Bays. The Bays triumphed in their opening game with the Garrison but the Tommies are going out to-morrow with the intention of giving the fur 'iaders a slide down the greasy slope. Fitz's will line up as follows: Jasper; Grimes and Grimes: Anderson, Gibson and Sharrock; Sharcott, Rob-bins. Erskine. Boden and Clark.

Reserves: Lynn, Clarke and Woods. Players to be at Beacon Hill at 2.45 o'clock. Game start at 3 o'clock. SEATTLE GOLFERS WIN WILSON TROPHY Seattle, Oct. 24.

By the margin of three points which in golf team match play means the substitution of one man for another Seattle Golf Club, on its own links on Saturday beat Victoria Golf Club in the 72-hole home-and-home match for the Biggerstaff Wilson Trophy. The Victorians came down with a 38-point lead, as a result of the Spring engagement. They were beaten Saturday in the second half of the match by a 53 to 12 score: or, a net up on the thirty-six holes of 41. That explains the three points on the whole match. As matters stand, that means that the fight for the trophy put up by "Bigg" Wilson must be started all over again.

The provisions of the trophy are that the winner must win three years in succession. It happens that last year Victoria won the trophy. Incidentally, this is prettv much as it should be; for this team match is covered with moss. It is the oldest golf club team rivalry in the Pacific Northwest; and for either club to be obliged to put up a trophy every once in a while it would not only be expensive but it would sort of rob the rivalry of its up-and-downness. Interest usually centres in the top men.

This was true of Saturday's match. And the top men came through in grand style for Seattle The best hit of stroke golf was that of Bon Stein in the morning. He had a fine 71 against A. V. Macan.

'Dixie" Fleager took "Bigg" Wilson in with a morning round of 76 and an afternoon effort of 74. Both of the local team leaders won total points. The scores, however, tell in the best way just how matters went. They are as follows. Seattle players named first: Stein (3) vs.

Macan (0V. Fleager (3 vs. B. Wilson (0. McKillop (3) vs.

As the result of his labors, Saskatoon will be able to trot out the largest squad ever assembled in professional hockey under the colors of cne club. Wesley Champ a Winner "Wesley Champ, owner of the Regina club, is probably better known tn the Coast than any of the others owing to the success achieved by his team when it visited the Coast last Spring.

This, cf course, is recent history. There is no doubt that the brilliant record of the Regina team year was largely due to the and ability of the club's owner. While possibly not so well versed in hockey affairs as some of the other, owners, his natural business ability' will ensure success for the Regina end of the W.C.H.L. loop. He has tijken up hockey as a hobby.

He is willing to sacrifice himself where the reneral good of the league is at stake. In all his dealings he has proved himself a man of pre-eminent fairness. Sport for Sport's Sake "Taken all in all, I should say that the heads of the W.C.H.L. are as fine a group of men as has ever been gathered together in the interests of sport. They have outlined their policy as 'sport for sport's As a body they are decidedly against the idea of winning at any cost.

For these reasons I am delighted at the prospect which now opens up of keen inter-league competitions. To my n.ind. hockey is the world's greatest sport. In arranging for the contests ith the W.C.H.L. it has been our desire to stimulate better relations between the Coast and prairie prov-ir ces.

I believe we are on the verge of realizing a great ideal." STRATFORD FAVORITE FOR CLASSIC RACE AT NEWMARKET London, Oct. 24. (Canadian Press Cable) Latest betting on the Cambridgeshire stakes, the Newmarket feature for Wednesday, follows: Stratford 100 to 12 against, Soubriquet 13 to 1, Lady Juror 100 to 6, Rockfire 20 to 1, Cey-lonese 22 to 1, Monarch, Clock-acht and Leighton 28 to 1, St. Louis, Pondoland and Re-Echo 33 to 1, Hasty Match 40 to 1, Express Delivery, Franklin and Jacquot 50 to 1, Sariba 66 to 1, all taken and offered. TVS RECORD HANGS ON ONE MERE SINGLE Official Scorer Did Not Give Cobb Hit Which Brings His Average Below .400 Chicago, Oct.

24. One questioned hit separates Ty Cobb, manager of the Detroit Tigers, from the charmed circle of .400 hitters for 1922. it was discovered in compilation of the official batting records of the American league. Without that hit Cobb's total is but with it he enters the .400 ranks for the third time in his career as league batting leader, a position he has held for the last fifteen years with but three exceptions. Official.

Scorer Says No On May 1, in a game at New York between Detroit and the Yankees, Cobb was credited in unofficial newspaper box scores with two hits and by the official scorer with only one tafe smash. Investigations of the discrepancy have begun and the controversy will be laid before President Johnson of the American League. If the hit is won for Cobb it will make him the only slugger in baseball history to pass the .400 mark three times. JOIE RAY LOOMS AS A BOXING PROSPECT Champion Mile Runner Wins Title in Ring; May Turn Pro With Further Successes Chicago, Oct. 24.

As a world's champion runner, Joie Ray, of the Illinois Athletic Club, also is a considerable individual with a pair of boxing gloves tied on his wrists. Ray stepped out as an amateur in a boxing show here last night and to the surprise of the spectators defeated Jack Kello, holder of the Middle States title in the 125-pound class. The diminutive Chicagoan, who holds nine world's running records, may enter the professional ranks if he progresses favorably as an amateur. TORONTO SCOTTISH WIN. Hamilton, Oct.

24 The fight for the Ontario cup. emblematic of the soccer championship of the province, is over and Toronto Scottish are the winner for the second year in succession. The local Labor Party team on Saturday failed to pull down th- 2 to 9 lead held by the Queen City eleven and obtained in Toronto the previous werk, each team scoring one goal. Frank Patrick, President of P. C.

H. Gives'Outline of Men Who Control Destinies of Prairie Clubs, Which Will Appear in Inter-League! Series This Year Vancouver. B.C., Oct. 24. -Bringing new blood and new ideas into the professional hockey world and, what is far more impotrant, helping to I ridge the tremendous gap which lies between the far.

East and the far West in a unifying bond of sportsmanship, the Western Canada Hockey is an important unit in de-v eloping Canada's social life," writes Frank A. Patrick, president of the V.C.H.A. 'The story of an organization of this kind is largely the story of the Tien at its head," continues Mr. Patrick. "The W.C.H.L.

is fortunate in its choice of presidents, for E. L. Richardson, who ccupies that office, is an ideal occupant, in my opinion. He is one of Calgary's best known business men and is a prominent Ro-tarian. Last year was his first in active connection with professional hockey, but his work during that season stamped him as a splendid executive for an organization devoted to sport.

Mr. Richardson combines tact, patience and strength of character with sane business judgment and shrewd understanding of human nature. He is temperamentally quiet H. retiring, but possesses a strong personality which has already made itself felt in firmly welding the interests of Saskatchewan and Alberta into an harmonious whole. He is also a firm disciplinarian, as was shown by the suspension of Amby Moran, of Regina, last Spring and the severe penalty imposed for an offence which is altogether too common in other branches of sport.

Mr. Richardson was thoughtful and courteous in all bis dealings. I heartily concur with the comment made by Frank Calder, president of the N.H.A., during his recent Western trip, who said that Mr. Richardson was a gentleman and a genuine sportsman. Hockey Before Ha Eats ''Coast fans might be interested in I.

nowing something about the owners Of the various clubs holding franchises in the W.C.H.L. Big, genial i-loyd Turner, who presides over the Calgary club, is a typical Westerner, standing six feet one inches and built in proportion. Lloyd radiates the beeziest optimism and good fellowship. In fact, Lloyd's name is a nonym for good fellowship in Calgary. He is one of the keenest followers of the sport of hockey I know and would rather discuss the game than eat, I believe.

Of all the new cwners in the W.C.H.L. he is probably the most successful negotiator, and has succeeded in inducing a btring of very promising young players to sojourn in Calgary. In fact, he is able to discuss his players by the dozen. It is to be hoped he has secured at least one or two diamonds In the rough. Should Calgary not be in at the finish of the W.C.H.L.

cam-1 aign it will not be the fault of the elub's owner. Calgary is very fortunate to have such a man at the head of its hockey interests. From what I saw there, I should say there are few men who enjoy a greater popularity in Calgary. Kenny MacKenzie Good "I believe the youngest owner on tl.e prairie is Kenny MacKenzie, of Kdmonton. He is somewhere around thirty-one vears of age and is a veteran of the' Great War.

He is quiet and retiring by nature. He has a keenly analytical mind and is the most thoroughly versed in all branches sport of any of the new managers. His ability to rate players at their exact value is one of his most remarkable qualities. He neither under nor overrates them. It is his ambition to secure nothing but the best for his line-up.

He is fortunate in securing a particularly well-balanced squad to represent Edmonton. He has two or three men who rate as uper-stars and back of them are a number of men who play high class, dependable hockey. Kenny and his team have made a popular hit in Edmonton, as attested by the packed kouses which watched the games last ncason. He has said less, so far. about the team he will play through the coming season than the other prairie cwners.

It is possible, therefore, that he may spring a surprise on the 1-ockey world when the campaign cnens. If Edmonton could secure a defence player of superior class that club would look like the strongest in the W.C.H.L. Fred Betts a Comer "Since last season Saskatoon has changed the management of its club. It is now controlled by a representative group of prominent business men vho have expressed their determination to place their city on the map as a sport-loving centre.

They are like continued stories in magazines you are OF" "Bursting Reality" Characters Photographic Work in Film Now Here An example of what cinemato graphic treatment can do for a story is furnished in "On the High Seas which is at the Capitol Theatre this week. In plot this photoplay is as cut and dried as the film on which it is printed. It is composed in large part of the incredibilities and obsurdities which have become the commonplaces of what passes for romance on the screen. And yet it is often, and for stretches continuously, entertain ing. Because its pictures are alive.

The spectator is carried along by smoothly flowing scenes which make a direct appeal to his imagination. Until he gets out of the theatre and thinks about it, he forgets how truo to form, without substance, the story is The principal characters in this story are Leone Devereaux, a girl whose wealth and social pretentiousness are as heavily underscored as that of any heroine of the movies: Jim, introduced as a steamship stoker. and Polak, his stoke-hole boss. They are all on a ship returning to California from the Far East. The vessel is destroyed by fire and the three are thrown together in an open boat.

After a while they find precarious refuge on a drifting schooner, form which they are finally rescued by a battleship. In the, meantime Leone has developed a love for Jim, the supposed stoker, who masters her roughly but protects her from the brutish Polak, but when she is returned to her family she assumes her old way of life and prepares to marry the moneyed monkey previously selected by her father. Jim, however, is not a real stoker as you are perfectly well aware all the time if you have seen three movies in the last years and, of course, he ultimate ly, and melodramatically, appears in his right person and marries the girl. There you are, then. Not very exciting, is it? But the photoplay is.

For Irvin Willat has made pictures. He began with three competent players in the leading roles. Dorothy Dal-ton. Jack Holt and Mitchell Lewis, and he got good work, from them. Also he appears to have been provided with a well-constructed continuity by E.

Magnus Ingieton. And he staged his scenes in effective settings, with the aid of a skillful photographer, whose name is not on the vrogramme, but ought to be. In the staging of the scenes he revealed his own skill and free imagination, without which everything else would have teen practically valueless. For instance, there Iiave been realistic shipwreck scenes before, but pone, so far. as the present writer recalls, has had the convincing sure-ness, the bursting reality, of those in "On the High Seas." And the scenes of the three adrift in the boat, and on the schooner, are as true and telling.

Furthermore, they are not spectacles introduced for their own sake. They are a part of the story. They tell the story. That's why they galvanize it, pven though, in itself it is all but lifeless. If ever a film gave evidence that the effectiveness of a story depends at least as much upon the way it is told as upon the bare story, or plot itself, this picture does so.

SON BORN TO WIFE OF DEAD RUGGER Montreal, Oct. 24. A son was born yesterday to Mrs. Arless. widow of Allan Arless.

The upheaval which took place at the recent meeting of the National Hockey League at Hamilton over the sending of "Newsy" Lalonde to the Saskatoon Club of the Western Canada Hockey League, has apparently subsided in as sudden a manner as it started. Leo Dandurand, managing director of the Canadians, with whom Lalonde played last Winter, has got around the objections of the Toronto and Hamilton owners, and Lalonde will be traded to the Crescents. Aurel Joliat. another storm petrel of recent pro-hockey discussions, who was claimed by both Ottawa and Canadians, a short time ago, but who, it was found, belonged to Saskatoon, will come to Montreal as part parliament for Lalonde. The agreement with Saskatoon calls for anothe player as well as Joliat.

A Check. Negotiations between Canadians and the Western Club are held up at the present time because this player does not belong to Saskatoon. He is a Calgary puck-chaser by the name of Gagnier. The Saskatoon owners are now dickering with Calgary for the transfer, but so far they have evidently not succeeded. As soon as they do.

the deal will be completed. Leo Dandurand has started serious preparations for the coming season, mailing contracts to all last Winter's team. Wait and bee Says Fred. Saskatoon, Oct. 24.

Commenting on the dispatch from Montreal that Newsy Lalonded had been traded to Saskatoon by Leo Dandurand, of the Canadiens, Fred Betts, the manager of the Crescent Hockey Club, said last night: These newspaper stories from the East are interesting reading. If this is the dope, it has yet to reach us from more authentic sources. All news concerning the Crescents will be given out fiom this end and it will be authentic and official." Calgary, Oct. 24. Lloyd Turner, manager of the Calgary Hockey Club, denies that he has a player signed by the name of Gagnier and that Saskatoon has been dickering for him.

Turner figures that Gagnier must be Art Gagne, forward of the Edmonton Eskimos. TORONTO SCRIBE DELIVER KNOCK TO WESTERN PROGRESS Toronto. Oct. 24. Apparently the Pacific Coast League is never happy unless it is tinkering with the hockey roles, says The Globe sport writer.

The Patrick brothers' organization introduced the colored lines across the ice, the no-offside area, a complicated code of major, minor, match and other penalties, and now it decides to make the Winter pastime a mixture of "soccer and shinny" bv allowing players to kick the puck. It is provided, however, that the puck may not be kicked into the net to score goals. That ought to help some. Leave the coasters to their own devices long enough and the western fans will not know a hockey game when they see one. The Globe affirms.

For years the Pacific Coast League refused to have anything to do with six-man hockey, but they have finally succumbed, probably because there is nothing else they can think of to effect a further change in the rules. VILLA RETAINS TITLE IN BOUT WITH DANNY Boston. Oct. 23. Pancho Villa.

American flyweight champion, decisively outfought and outpointed Danny Edwards. Pacific Coast bantamweight champion, in their ten-round bout here last night As a result of the deliberations of the hockey moguls of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association last night the schedule for the coming season was drafted.

Pats, of Toronto, world's champions, will perform here as well as the Regina, Edmonton, Saskatoon and Calgary teams of the Western Canada League. Victoria fans will also be able to see the Vancouver and Seattle sextettes in a game which will be staged in Victoria in February while the Aristocrats are making their swing around the prairie loop'.
