how the American League entry can

One thing that the American League

pointed to the fact that Detroit. with

Frank "Cozy" Dolan returned home

greetings by his old friends Ottawa,
of which he was q member for five
seasons and captain the last two
years. copied four consecutive pen

Shaughnessey. the old Tri-State

for an average Of 800; the following
season he came through with a $50
average; last year he hit TO ESQ, and
this year $50 was his mark. During
the winter months he acts in the ca
pacity OF trainer and assistant coach
for McGnl University football and
hockey teams. The McGill hockey
team took a trip TO the Vancouver
Islands last year to play for the
championship OF the world They
lost. but "Cozy" relates some thrill
ing experiences to his friends. Frank
also told the writer that the Canadian
League in all probability will remain
idle next season owing TO the war
conditions in Canada. Should the
league blow. there will be an oppor-
