extent the goalie has definitely found the fountain of youth and is playing terrific hockey Its his tenth season in intermediate company and except for three seasons of army hockey hes played all his hockey at Colling ready to quit three years ago kept on playing as his pals refused to let him retire and this year hes the backbone of the club It could nt happen better fellow either With the

There are no more or at the wrestling peak and the great Irish of other days the Flanagans and dont seem to be But the Irish are by no means out of topflight sport It may not have occurred to yon but the Irish come pretty close to holding top hand on the turf in this country Ireland is a great horseracing country The Emerald Isle specialises in jumping horses and has sent many a winner to the most testing of all races the Grand National steeplechase right now Irishbred horses have played and are playing a big part in American racing First there was the Irishbred that on four successive occasions defeated Americas greatest modern racehorse the mighty Citation Lift race thrillers seldom equaled anywhere and in which world records were smashed or tied while the pride ot Kentucky was being humiliated Now comes another of the Irish Windy City to breeze by Calumet Farms best threeyearolds as I though they were tied This Irishbred European juvenile champion of last year hot only has won two stakes for threeyear olds this year America beating Hill Gail and A Gleam rated Calumets best derby hopes at this time but came from behind to win going away like a real standout Ills victory in the San Felipe handicap at Santa at mile ami onesixteenth indicating his liking for dis tance since he was inert using his lead as he passed under the wire just about convinced turf experts that purchase is a prize package Windy may go to the post in the Kentucky Derby a hot favorite to win that big race In Europe where Windy City was raced as a juvenile his amazing speed won him the title of the champion two- yearold of England and Europe His only defeat was an upset something the same as once happened to Man OWar Abroad the only question about Windy was his ability to go the Derby route So Ireland is by no means in sports eclipse The Ould Sod carries on as it has always done in some division of The Day has been both good and bad for the sons of the Ould Sod Most important fight in ring annals staged on March took place in Carson City Nevada on March James J Corbett an IrishAmerican who had de feated the mighty John L Sullivan to win the title was matched with the lanky Bob was
