Kenya a practice has been called for footballers at Roosevelt Park Sunday forenoon. The committee will select the 'team to represent the city from the players available. In the meantime players are beln? registered and turning in their strips for laundering. It is many years slnre there has been a British warship visiting the port. In former days it was an annual event and one of the highlights was always the soccer game. These lads from the Old Country, the home of loot-ball, always put up a first-class display but the city team' was always able to give them a good game. One of the greatest ambitions of the Prince Rupert players was to be chosen to represent the city against a visiting British warship. This visit of KM. S. Kenya should do much toward reviving the old football snirlt and no doubt the present generation of footballers will be just as anxious to try out against the visitlnir faro as were the former players. Fog Washes Out Ladies' Fastball Owing to persistent fog last evening's scheduled game in" the Citv Ladies' Fastball League be tween High School and Gordon and Anderson was postponed. The next game is between Moose and High School and will take place on Tuesday evening. UMBRELLAS OUT UNDER 1882 LAW CAPETOWN, 0; During a recent rainy week here pedestrians were surprised when stopped by traffic policemen who asked them to shut their um brellas. But the policemen were only doing so along covered sidewalks and were not prompted by superstition. They were en forcing a law of 1882 which forbids anyone to obstruct free passage along a sidewalk. Orig inally the law applied also to RAIN COMES WRONG TIME Precipitation "Sow of Little Benefit to 'Crops WINNIPEG Cooler weather with varying amounts of rain have been received over most of the prairies during the past week.

A reporter "handicaps" at New York's felony court the "Ponymeter," alleged to calculate to l-20th of a second the speed of horses based on past performances, the theory being that the fastest horse should win.

Blanchard, a Frenchman, guided his balloon across the English Channel on January 1785, in t he first cross-channel flight. Wartime Diversion Now Good Business LONDON, 0; During the Second World War when her son was battling In the skies against the Luftwaffe, Mrs. A. Rltcher, as a diversion, started to make herself a hat Iran an old felt hood and a few pieces of ribbon. A friend amdired it and asked Mrs. Rltcher to make one just like it. Soon she was making and selling hats professionally and now her business is expanding and she is making hats for many notables. She employs two assistants as copyists, but she herself designs every bat and personally makes every model that leaves her salon. And in spite of what is an assured success Mrs. Rltcher. now nearing 60, will still sit up into the small hours designing hats.
