I... - J/ F1 r Cnx r-.-- DEAEE CGMES’ PEACE Washington, Feb. 3.â€"â€"-Woodrow§ Wilson, twenty-eighth President of the United States, from 1913 to 1921, died toâ€"day. With the whole world watching at his bedside as for the last three days, the distingdshed American, recog- nized as one of the great men of his country and his time, came peacefully to his end at 11.15 o’clock this morn- ing. # Mr. Wilson's life ebbed away in the sleep into which he sank yester- day. The last sentence he uttered Mas on 'Friday, when he said, address- lng his physician, “1 am a broken piece of machinery, Grayson. When the machine is brokenâ€"I am ready to go." ‘ President Coolidge, after calling at the S street house, in company with Mrs. Coolidge, issued a proclamation of thirty days’ official mourning for the death of Mr. Wilson, during which period the flags on all United States Government buildings throughout the world will be flown at half-mast, and' official entertainment will be sus- pended. In this proolamation President Coolidge paid Mr. Wilson one of theI highest tributes he ever received. “As ‘President of the United. States," said Mr. Coolidge, “he was moved by an earnest desire to promote the best interests of the country as CANAkorNs womb TRTKOFFV soccEEDs TITLE IN HOCKEY GAME Brilliant Combination Sweeps; Through United States Defence. ‘ Chamonix, France, Feb. 3.â€"Canada, won the blue ribbon event of the 1924 Olympic winter games and added ten points to her score when the Dominion hockey team to-day defeated the United States in the final of the hockey series by a score of 6 to 1. It was a fast and furious contest from start to finish, and when Paul Locq of Belgium, the referee, blew his Whistle and the game was over the. United States players were physically;: _ exhausted and stumbling from fatigue.' The smoothness and finish of the Canadian offensive combination over- whelmed the brilliant individual play of the United States. As regularly as though conducted by well-oiled ma- chinery the puck passed from Smith‘ to McCaifery to Watson or from Munro to Smith to Watson and into the net: Drury, who scored the tally; for the United States, did so after a[ single-handed dash down the ice. Munro and Ramsay made an al-1 most impregnable defence for the Can-_ sdian goal and smothered the indi-l vidual efforts of the United States forwards with efficiency. I There was little love lost between the two teams, rivals since the Olym- pic hockey commenced. The‘ game- had not proceeded more than twol minutes when Watson was bleeding from the nose, and Rice was stretched out on the ice after a collision with Smith The United States fought] hard in the opening session when they! were fresh, and frequently Rice, Mc- Carthy or Drury, getting the puck;I in United States territory, rushed1 down the ice only to be blocked hard' by the Canadian defence. Then began the regular action of» the Canadian combination in all its, perfection, heart-breaking to the Un-l ited States. The puck seemed to pass! ceaselessly between the sticks of the: Canadian forwards. Hard backâ€"i checking was of little avail. The fastl skating and stickhandling of Uncle, Sam's representatives was futile against the relentless Canadian ma-‘ chine. The thousands of spectators who filled the stands watching the hardest and swiftest hockey that Europe had ever seen were thrilled by the desper- ate stand made by the United States under the pressure of the better co- grginated Canadian team. Time after cheers broke from the crowd as rury or Rice clashed away for rush- es into Canadian territory, only to be foiled as ho reachedRamsay or Mun- ro. Shots from outside the line of int were easy for Cameron. Coun- râ€"cheers rose as the popular Can- adians penetrated the I'nitcd States lines and drove their builotelikc shots at Lacrolx.
