Sport It was understood that the Ca-nallan Amateur Ski Association would bear part of the transportation and training expenses of thd skiers from the West, but a wire from S. R. Lockeberg, chairman and trainer of the Olympic, inform the entrants from the West that they will have to pay their own way. Considering that the district may not have an opportunity to have a man from this district on an Olympic team for many years, the Omlneca Ski Club feels that the financing of Eng-stad's trip Is a matter of general Interest. Dive j J K IN SPORT HOXER the parting of the ways only In 1913 when Wolgast decided to quit the ring the first time. Wolgast won the lightweight championship by defeating Battling Nelson In bloody 40-round battle Point Richmond, across the bay from San Francisco, In 1910. It was practically a technical knock-out against Nelson who received $13,000 while Wolgast and his manager got $3,000. Wolgast defended his crown times before losing It to Willie Ritchie at San Francisco on a foul 16 rounds in 1912. Ad received $27,000 for this bout. Wolgast was a happy-go-lucky Individual and cared little of finances or the future. It was his ability to strike down a foe with either fist whlcn made him such a champion. Between 1914 and 1917 tried vainly to come back. In 1916 he was first declared insane and later was adjudged com- petent. Once more he was declared insane and again competent. Later became violent and has since been at Patton. He has given op In-itenshe training although he occa-' sionally engages in roadwork. January 28 Grotto vs. Sons of Norway.

COMMITTEE NOT LEGAL "ity Solicitor Gives Opinion an Proposal of Ratepayers' Association City Solicitor E. F. Jones advised he city council at last night's meeting that It had no authority 'o appoint a special committee on lty assessment such as had been uggested by the Prince Rupert 'Ratepayers' Association. The opln-on of the solicitor will be forwarded o the association for its Information. The Ratepayers' Association ask-d the council at Its earliest con-enience to appoint a committee of three competent valuators, not members of the city council or City Hall staff, to examine the assessments and record opinions on the values of each separate parcel which would be reported to the court of revision as an aid In dealing with appeals against the assessment. The city solicitor gave the opln-Ion that the council had no authority to appoint such a committee It would simply mean the making of a second assessment at the city's expense. The Ratepayers' As sociation, of course, could present any evidence and views it might desire to at the court of revision. On motion of Aid. Collart and Aid. Pullen. it was decided to send t he renort of the city solicitor on to the Ratepayers' Association. Aid. Rudderham and AM. Macdonald were opposed to the city undertaking any expenditure such as would be Involved In the makinz of a second assessment at a time when funds were so urgently needed In other directions. Aid. Pullen thought it would be a ridiculous position for the city to appoint an as-essor and then a committee to reassess the assessor.
