Around The World With Sport Fans (By The Tramp) There is no more colorful a performer in the ring today than Jimmy MeLarnin, the Irish boxer from Vancouver, says the Toronto j Globe. lie packs a knock-out punch, and this tells the story. Last night at the New York Coliseum MeLarnin connected again, and Sergeant Sammy Baker, a "tough hombre," as mittmen go, heard the birds singing gaily in the treetops. MeLarnin has come back as a welterweight, and he will now seek the title held by Jackie Fields. Some years ago MeLarnin landed a right-hand punch on Field's unprotected chin, and, the latter went out for the count. Since that time he has made it a point to evade a meeting with the Vancouver slugger, but sooner or later he will be forced to accept the challenge. Fields is a much improved boxer now. He has beaten all opponents decisively, but he knows MeLarnin is the Demp-eey of his weight, and that he cannot be trifled with. The only black mark against McLarnln's record was registered at Detroit a year ago when Rav Miller was credited with a technical knockout victory MeLarnin having received a deep cut over his eye .which greatly handicapped him. Later on MeLarnin whipped Miller at New York, thus showing that flukes happen In the ring as well as everywhere else. Manager Duncan Munro of the Montreal Maroons is alleged to have stated that rival National League Hockey Club owners have decllwd to trade or sell any high-claas nlavers to the Montreal?!- the feeling being that the Maroons are strong enough. Certainly Munro has at his command the most imposing squad in the maior loop It wasn't lack of star players that wrecked the Maroons last season, dui rawer me aDsence or har mony. Montreal lans went into a frenzy of excitement when the Maroons were defeated in the 1928 Stanley Cup series by the New York Rangers. They blamed the referees, and even President Cal-der. They claimed that the Maroons were the greatest machine in rapUvity. and they couldn't understand how they lost to the Rangers. So last year. Just to prove that their supporters were guessing wide of the mark, the Maroons proceeded to lose their last six starts and to finish In the cellar in the Canadian section, the lowliest standing ever held by a club that had such potential strength. It is true that the Maroons had no business to be down that far. but lack of harmony will wreck the best of them, and this several temperamental players discovered, to their sorrow.

Hopes Patronage TWill Go Down To Defeat Vancouver (Vancouver Province) Regarding Conservative organization in Vancouver, we say quite frankly that we hope any faction wed to the patronage idea will be defeated. The Conservative organization will do well to keep clear of the pitfalls Into which th? former administration fell. They will de well to avoid the mistakes of their predecessors in office which brought forth such strenuous opposition in these columns. STOCK QUOTATIONS Court tey of 8. D. Johnston Co. Ltd.)
