WORLD WIDE REVIVAL BRINGS BACK ICE SKATING By Peter P, Carney Tce skating, especially speed com- petition, felt the effects of the world war more than eny other pastime, and not until all the other sports were again in a healthy condition did the physician pay any atention to. ice skating. This glorious pastime became a lost | art in the European countries d ing the war, and if the United States uiad- n't settled the issue as gquickly as it did the sport would soon have become passe in this country. Ice skating, was something that had no bearing on the war and therefore it was soon shelved. Now, however, the sport has receiv ed first aid treatment and is under- going a revival ‘the world over, and, the races early in February in Chisti- ania, N r, between “Bobby” Me- 0, and Oscar Mathie- Sons"of i . Norway, for the world's - professional ice skating title hould do much to kindle the forces of interest .McClean has sailed for | Norway and hopes to prove to Nor- wegians that America is supreme in| ice skatink as in other sports. Right at home we are promised the busiest ice skating season: in _histor: The Baster speed championships were held on Lake Placid on New Year's day and the Northwest Skating club, | of Chicago, will conduct a ca \ val of speed skating on Humboit park on January 11. This club, which is now a branch of the Northwest Sports- man’s club, wsz organized in 1888 and ‘ever since has been one of the prime movers in keeping ice skating before the public. ‘it has promoted more race meets and turned out more first class skaters than any other organization in_the country. The intercollegiate hockey league is again in full swing, as is the Cana- {dian intercollegiate hockey league, and the Canadian professional hockey leauge, is no wbeing reorganized. The Yale university hockey team invaded Canada the first week in January, and played matches with the Hamilton | Tigers, the Amateur Champions, of Candda, at Kingston, Brockville, To- ronto and Welland on successive days.
