In the event of the Tigers not being
able to play the doubie-header In the
final series with the Leafs today the
Tigers will be compelled under the con-
%stitution to play off the games on their
next visit to Toronto. The same ruling
holds good elsewhere. Until a few

final series unless both managers
agreed. Now. however, the point Is
covered.

A claims that the double overland
stroke is the best one known in swim

Smith and Annette Kellerman use It.
B claims superiority for the breast
stroke.
Any way one looks at it B Is wrong.
