Balagno, last year's champion, again enters the final of the cltysenlor billiard championships this season as a result of a 500 to 440 victory last night over Col. S. P. McMordie, 1928 champion. Balagno took an early lead In the semi-final but was passed by McMordie about half way through the match. Then Balagno went into the lead again and maintained a handy j margin until the end. The time of the match was two hours and 40 minutes. Balagno's high break was 38 and his average, ' 4.3. McMordie's high break was 30 j and average, 3.8.

Sport Chat Scotsmen are expected to rally in the City Hall tomorrow when the annual meeting of the Thistle Football Club will take place. Last year, the Thistle eleven upheld Auld Scotia's soccer traditions here very creditably and, no doubt, may be expected to do so again. It looks like Thistle Is to be the first club this year to get the season's organization under way and It is hoped by the management that there will be a large crowd both, of players and fans on hand to enthusiastically launch that organization. Frank Patrick, president of the Pacific Coast Hockey League, says Pacific Coast Hockey League will break up next season and that his Vancouver team and Bobble Rowe's Portland Buckaroos are to be transferred holus bolus to some eastern loop. "The whole thing is so far fetched as to be beyond all bounds of possibility," Mr. Patrick said when informed of the report. Bill Richardson, first Vancouver ball player to take a fling at the major leagues in some years, has evidently caught the eye of someone In authority on the New York Qlants' staff, and has not been found wanting. The little right hander, who modestly pitched the Generals Into a pennant last sea $cn has been fanned out to the San Antonio club of the Texas League by the New York club. Two other players went with Richard s$n, Outfielder Omar Tucker and Infielder Frank McCluuouih'. All three were sent to the AA class league under option. George Burns, former major league Infielder, manages the San Antonio Indians, Junior Catholic League Officers Miss Marie Murphy Elected President at Annual Meeting The Junior League of the Catholic Church held Its annual meeting at the end of the week and elected the following as officers for the year: Honorary President, Miss 3.
