Winnipegs importance to hockey in western Canada was evident, hero Saturday when it wa realised Hint from among the thirty-four players forming the Saskatoon.

Moose Jaw and tho two Calgary clubs assembled here at one time, seventeen hailed from Winnipeg. Six of the eight Motse Jaw players were schooled in hookey at Winnipeg; three of the eight Saskatoon players; four of nine Calgary Tigers played in Winnipeg and four of the nine Canadians. CHICAGO, March 12. The states attorneys office today formally announced that when the trial of Chicago' White Sox players charged with throwing the 1919 world series opens on Monday, the state will move that the case be taken from the calendar and not brought back until next fall, when the baseball season lias ended. Attorneys for the defense snid they would, insist either on an immediate trial or dismissal.

Judge Landis, baseball commissioner, when in- formed of tbe states announcement, said he would' immediately place all the indicted players on the ineligible list, and that none of them could play in organised baseball pending the trial. Saturday Night Session in Calgary Taken by Locals; Score 6-2 I special to The Phoenix. CALGARY, March 14. Saskatoon i'leseirits showed a great reversal of form licio Saturday night over their appearance on Friday, when they were defeated by the Tlgere, for they succeeded ln defeating the Canadians masterly fashion by a score of 6-2. Notwithstanding the win, the Gres-ceriirt did not bliow up as well as was expected, arid for that matter the Gamlians took things easy all the way, so that it looked more like a practice game than a regulation hockey match.

The weather was also colder than It ha been here all aea-I son, and this tended to both keep th fans away and to slow up the pastime, fur all players found it hard to keep warm. Hal Winkler, the Saskatoon net-minder, was the big man In the pus-time. Hail it not been for ilia won-(infill exhibition in the nets, no doubt there would have been a ilif-ferent tale to tell.

One hockey match won and another lost, two basketball sessions won and one lost. Therefore out of five premier events In the sporting world, the odd one goes to the right side of the ledger. The Crescents staged a lively set-to over the border in Calgary, reversing their defeat at the hands of the Tigers on Friday night to win from the Canadians. It appears that the Crescents were right on and kept things humming right from the start.

Winkler seems to have been the bright and shining light of the locals, revealing such brilliancy of form that Calgary fans looked on his work as being a revelation as to what could be done when keeping a puck from bulging the twine. Varsity seems to have hit into their stride on Saturday night In their match with Port Arthur. Playing the Thunder Bay champs on more than even terms as far as ter rltorlal play was concerned, they kept the Easterners from piling up an overwthelmdng score. With all due respect to the Varsity team, it would have been considered one of the biggest Jokes of the year if Thunder Bay leaguers had been eli-, mlnated from the cup series in the first round. A team that finished it bird in the local Intermediate league did not raise any great holies for a championship, so one is forced to wonder what would happen If asy of the Saskatchewan teams had been up against Port Arthur.

It would be a fairly safe bet that that tally of 17-6 would be reversed. ENTERS INTO Varsity Loses Second Game to Thunder Bay Champions By 4-2 Count (Special to The Phoenix) WINNIPEG, March 14, Playing under wraps at nearly all stages of the game, the Port Arthur North Ends again defeated the University of Saskatchewan hockey team ln the final clash of the Allan cup elimination series here Saturday night 4 to 2, and thereby enter the next stage against the Brandon cup holders here Monday and Wednesday. The Thunder Bay champions did not have the easy time that they encountered in the first game, but were never forced to extend themselves to take the long end of the score and won the round 17 to 6. The Collegians showed a wonderful Improvement in their play, checking much better and showing more finish ln their attack. But the Ports were quite satisfied to hold them safe and took few chances.

Broad-foot and McNab were the best of the westerners, while Wellington and WilBon did useful work for the winners. At the end of the first period each teant had succeeded ln bulging the tapestry once. In the second period' Jhe eastern team was more on the Job, breaking away more frequently, and eoored twice, so that the score was 3-1 for Port Arthur when time came for the last Interval. Soon after the start of the third period Saskatchewan broke through and reduced the lead to one, only to huve Port Arthur even up the count for the period two minutes later. SUMMARY First Period 1.

GETS ALLAH GIF GAMES Court Refuses to Interfere in Hockey Controversy; President is Upheld WINNIPEG, March 14. The Allan Cup games will be played In Winnipeg. Mr. Justice Curran Saturday morning disallowed an application from Brandon for an injunction restraining H. J.

Sterling, president of CA.H.A., from allocating the games to this city. The application set forth that it was desirous on the part of the Brandon hockey club to have a de-iclsion rendered by the executive of the as to when and where the games should be played. It was claimed that the time and place had been set by President Sterling, who was exceeding his authority In so doing. II. J.

Symington, K.C., counsel for President Sterling, argued that the president was within his rights and that any action that might be taken by the court would be futile, as other officials could and would order the games to be played as already arranged. Rules of the Canadian Hot key Association were quoted and discussed at great length. Mr. Justice Curran expressed the opinion that It would be unwise for the court to interfere in the matter. He considered that the plaintiffs failed to come within tho law in the case ds presented, and it was plain that they had no standing on which to apply to the premier association.

Despite legal proceedings designed to have the games shifted to Brandon, president Sterling has again been upheld. From the way it looks at present, when the C.A. H.A.

OTTAWA, March 14. At a meeting here on Saturday of tho council of tlie Dominion of Canada Rifle 4, Association, it was decided to ojifii 1 tho annual prize meet tills year on 5, Monday, August 16, and the executive was authorised to prepare a prize list for the necessary regulations. The executive was also empowered to make the neecssarv arrangement for the assembling and despatch of Collegiate Wins Sensational Basketball Session from Normals by 38-35 Saskatoon can chalk up one memorable victory over Regina on the occasion of the invasion of Capital City basketball teams. On Saturday night the Collegiate five scored one of the most seneational wins In the hoop game seen In Saskatoon this winter, when they defeated the Regina Normal School by a score of 38-35. The game was a thriller from start to finish and the largo crowd which was on hand was kept on edge all through with spectacular plays.

The. result was in doubt up until the whistle tooted Its final note, for the score was continually being tied, with one team In the lead and then the other. Baskets followed one another In such bewildering succession that It was found Impossible to keep track of which team was in the lead. All the crowd knew was that the teams were fighting neck and neck for a commanding lead, one that would put the game safely on Ice. How well they succeeded In getting this lead will be seen by the final score, which gave the Collegiate a three-point margin of victory, and this advantage they accumulated In the fading seconds of the contest.

The closeness of the game could be better judged from the fact that the score at half time stood 20-19, giving the Collegiate a one-point advantage, but during the second half alternate baskets featured so that one team would gain the lead, only to have the other score a basket and jump out In front for a short time. TITUS WAS THE DECIDING FACTOR To Ernie Titus, left defence man for the Collegiate, must go the big part of the credit for the Saskatoon win. Ills work throughout the game, while not spectacular, was such that it brought him Into the limelight time after time. He played a wonderful game at his position and prevented several Regina plays that looked like pure baskets, from finding their mark. But it was on the offensive where lie shone for the most part.

He was the top scorer for the local squad, which Is something for a defence man. Two of hie baskets were shots from over half way down the floor and were the most beautifully placed during the entire session. In addition to scoring fourteen points lilmself he assisted In scoring many more through getting the ball to the right place at the right lime. THE REST OF THE TEAM After Titus' claims to honors, Mel Kerr, centre and captain, comes next, lid was so close behind Titus, both in scoring and offensive work that there would have been little to choose between the two but for the fact that Titus' defence game was superb. Of the remainder, AlcEown and Channel took major honors, through being used to the strenuous game.

Owing to Vern DeGeer, tho regular forward, being unable to play on account of a sore hand. His place was taken by Charlie Jamieson, one of the Juniors, who has noted as a eub for the regular tenrtj, but who never had a chance to show before. He proved capable with Channel and Kerr on the forward line and materially assisted In the local win. Ho wus taken out In the last twenty minutes to allow Ellis McMillan to go In, not on account of poor playing, but on account of the Collegiate coach wishing to give AlcAIllIan a chance to show. McMillan did well considering the strenuous play he had to contend with.

On the Regina line-up Morgan was the most dangerous man. He was able to break away on a number of occasions, although he was too closely watched to be especially effective. He fell down on shooting toward the end of the game, when every basket counted, would have meant a win. After him Balfour was the best, although Wood and Taylor ran him a 'close second. While the Regina team was beaten, It was more by the individual work of one man than by the Collegiate team.

Their teamwork was superior to that of the locals, and they did not have any momenta of indecision such as were common with Saskatoon. Over four hundred were on hand for the match, the largest crowd that has turned out for a basketball session this winter In Saskatoon. All were more tnun pleased with the result and the class of basketball exhibited It Is a certainty that the game has won a numher of supporters through the showing made by the Saskatoon team. The teams lined up as follows: LINEUPS Collegiate Normal School Channel! forward Balfour Jamieson forward Wood Kerr centre Morgan McEown defence Taylor Titus defence Nelson sub.
