THECatVert SPORTS COLUMN Seme4 7a0 THE STANLEY CUP' Parti in Some strange, some, bizarre, sone dram- atic and some Hilarious incidents have punct- uated the long history of. the Stanley Cup, on and off the ice. "'None more diverthig and fanciful, perhaps, . than the series of 1916, which was fought between the champions of two leagues who were warring each other to the bitter end. The start of the series last week recalls some of these happenings. • Those were the days of the two 'major leagues. The Patrick brothers, Lester and'Frank, in perhaps the most daring promotional venture in Canadian sports history, had deserted the east, in which they had won high acclaim as players, and invaded the Pacific Coast, to found a new professional league of major proportions. They built Canada's first artificial ice rinks three of them, and introduced hockey where it never had been played before. The shadows of a major war were closing over r the world in early 1914, as the Victories, champions of the Pacific Coast, came east and were rebuffed in their Stanley Cup hunt by a Toronto club that included "Happy" Holmes, Frank Foyston and the late Jack Walker. The world was at war the next year, and war between the two big hockey leagues was starting to cloud the sports skies. The West Coasters purloined Tommy Smith of Quebec, who had led the eastern scorers two successive seasons. Under pres- sure, they returned him, but the peace was an uneasy one. And when the 191546 season started, the eastern powers sud- denly realized their stockades had been invaded. For, as. Seattle lined up for its opening game, they had in goal— "Happy" Holmes, Ken Carpenter, Foyston and Walker of the former champion Torontos. The fight was on. The eastern league had agreed to subject Itself to draft by the young, powerful western body. But when pretty nearly an entire team was filched by the daring raiders, the oast rebelled. But the dispute still prevailed in the spring of 1916. Even then, the magnates of each league were by no means ready to -bury the hatchet; but neither were they inclined to pass lip the spoils of a Cup series. So, during a brief truce, the Stanley Cup series was played in Montreal, Canadiens defeated the Portland Rosebuds. Then the League resumed their war- fare, though it was settled soon after by a peace agreement.
