page four Sport Chat For several years following the war, Canada's great national sum mer .pastime, the earn? pf lacrosses suffered a relapse. This was caused by the great many hardships that followed in the war's wake. Many of the lacrosse leaders were taken away. Leagues were disor ganized and only a small number of the boys with heart and soul in the game k,ept it going. For three or four years the youngsters were forgotten about, with the result that the time came when there was no young talent coming along to take the older ones' places.

C. A. L. A. It is timely to note that in the last seasons that the game went strong up-country and produced many outstanding' young players who are right now making good in senior company with the coast teams: Mickey McGuire, Ab Hor-rex, Lyle Edwards, Murray Clark and Benny Richards, to mention a few. The interior towns can produce good players, but the game has been lagging there for six or sevn years, and, this year, teams from every town up-country must be put in the field. The B. C. A. L.N A. operates midget, juvenile, junior, intermediate and senior divisions, and also a girls' division, and there is no reason why every town or village in the interior can not at least have a midget or Juvenile team, or a girls' team, while some of the larger ones can foster a midget team and also a twelve in a grade a little higher up. or a girls' team, or a number of teams. The cost of running a midget1 team is practically negligible. The boys always have a pair of running shoes and can find a pair of shorts. Good sticks lor the whole team can be procured or $25, and all that remains is sweaters, and famous Canada' Cup, now held by the Rochester Yacht (Hub, of Ro chester, H.Y. 1 Nova Scotia's interest is due to I the fact that the Norseman has; been designed by W.

Bluenose, built to his design, first captured, the International Fishermen's Trophy back in 1921. Blue-nose still retains the title of undefeated champion fishing schooner of the North Atlantic. Nova Sco-tlans hope that what Roue has done In international radng with a fishing schooner, he wHI repeat with a yacht. Norseman will compete at Toronto this summer with two other 8-metre boats, built from the blue prints of two famous Old Country designers Fife and Nicholson for the right to challenge for the Canada's Cup, which has not been raced for in some years but which' is recognized as the blue-ribbon trophy of yacht racing on the Great Lakes and, in International racing, ranks next in Importance to the America's Cup and the Sea-, wanake Cup. Norseman, designed in Halifax and building In Toronto, is the all-Canadian boat of the trio.

All three yachts have been ordered by a Royal Canadian Yacht Club Syndicate, headed by Commodore George H. Gooderham. When the three come together at Toronto for their trials, Nova Scotia yachtsmen, while wishing the other two all sorts of luck, will pin their faith in the little Bluenose sloop as best bet for challenger. Norseman's main dimensions are 48 feet overall, 30 feet waterline, 8 feet, 4 inches beam. Marconi-rigged, she will spread 835 square feet of canvas. The Nicholson boat will be a little narrower and the Fife craft some inches shorter than Roue's sloop.
