THURSTON, Editor Fle»herton and Proton Play 4"4 Overtime Tie Last Thursday cveninjr the Flesh- erton Semi-Pros, despite the fact that three of their regular players were out of the line-up, held the Proton Bears to a 4-4 tie before only a small number of fans. The teams battled on a fairly even basis with Flesher- ton carrying the attack in the first half and Proton in the latter stages. The game was an exciting one to watch with the players giving and taking about equal amounts of body checks. The close checking on the part of both teams was a feature of the game with the ace front line of Morgan^ Leavell and Teeter going strong both ways. In the first period Flesherton ran up a three goal lead before Halliday replied for ihe visitor.s. Teeter had two goals to hi.s credit and Leavell one. Both teams were checking hard but Flesherton carried the play only to have Blackburn outluck them in the Proton cage. Ray White received a penalty for dumping Leavell. In the second period Proton scored three goals by P. Sims, Russel White and K. Sims. The game developed into a free-for-all when Ray White couldn't take a bump and threw his stick at Wilf. Best who replied with a right to the forehead. K. Sims and Hopkins then locked horns and spec- tators and players alike picked their man. Referee George Akitt had a desperate time getting the fracas halted and tagged Ray White and Hopkins for major penalties. Flesherton came out in the third period determined to tie it up and this they did in the early minutes when Teeter and Morgan combined for a beatittful goal with the former registering the counter. The local forvvard lines were being continually outlucked by Blackburn who played a brilliant game for the visitors. The players began using their bodies a little more and play roughened up considerably with the boards resound- ing with the whack of thumping bod- ies. Badgerow and Hopkins tangled beside the Flesherton net and major penalties were again handed out but no further scoring resulted. In the overtime there was no score but Russ. White was unfortunate to break his glasses which he is forced to use. PROTON â€" Goal, Blackburn; de- fence, Ray White, P. Sims; centre, Russel White; wings, Badgerow^ C.

From the drop of the puck Dundalk held the upper hand all the way and at no time was their lead threatened to any great extent. Ritchie went on a scoring spree that netted him six goals. In the first period Ritchie counted twice and Mortimer once before E. TurnbuU netted for Priceviile on a pass-out from behind the net from Weir. Ritchie's second goal was of the flukey variety when it glanced off McLean's stick into the Priceviile net. Thompson drew the period's only penalty for tripping^. In the second period Ritchie did the hat trick, Lyons scored once and Mc- Lean scored twice for Priceviile to make the score 7-3. McLean served two penalties, one for tripping and the other for hooking a Dundalkite who was in the clear. Bell received a nasty cut below the eye but con- tinued in the game after a few min- utes of rest. In the third period Ritchie and Bell .scored for their respective teams and the game ended 8-4 for Dundalk. Referee M. Thompson kept the game well in hand by calling all off- .sidcs and rink-length shots and thus the game did not develop into a rough, high-sticking duel that usually hap- pens when the smaller infractions of the rules are let slip by unnoticed.

Although the boys were defeated, they were far from disgraced. The lads had only three players who had ever played any organized hockey before, and some of them were playing their first game this year. In spite of these handicaps they gave their very best and went down fighting before a Well-conditioned, well-coached, fast skating Dundalk aggregation The Dundalk Juveniles have been operat- ing as n unit for three years, and under the guidance of men interested in boys as well as the future of hockey in Dundalk. This team will be the supply house for future C.O.H.L. teams in that town. Too late, we'll realize our need unless wo follow their example and help the Flesh- erton youths to be prepared for vac- ancies in our C.O.H.L. team. The lads are very enthusiastic about play- ing and are really fighting to do their best fur the men who back them. We hope the parents as !well f\» those interested in the growing youths will endeavour to aid them through their initial campaign. The next game will be held in Flesherton on Thursday night, Jan- uary 26. It will begin at 8.I5 p.m. and the visitors will be Shelburne. Skating after the game. For every new car sold in Canada, distributors have t.o make two used car sales, so that der.lrrs really make three sales when they sell a new car. The year 103<) will be unique in one respect. While it will have fifty-two wcnks the same as any other year, It will have fifty-thrt-c Sumlay^. The extra Sunday is due to the fart that the year commences on Sunday and wll end on Sundav. Debate Use of Atr (Continued from Page 1) employed veterans, 3,000 transients in Winnipeg, farm family on prairie). Nevertheless, Mackenzie King more than held his own with the leader of the Opposition. Before the session Is over, the House of Commons is going to hear 4 good deal, one way or another, from a group called the International For- warding Company, which proposes to carry bonded freight through Ontario fi-om Toledo to Buffalo over a spec- ially constructed two-lane highway to be built by them. Already a lobby has started, both for and against the proposal. N. J. M. Lockhart, M.P. for Lincoln, asked the Minister of Na- tional Revenue, before the orders of the day were called, "Has there been an application, or any indication of an application, to the Minister with respect to the carrying of United States goods in bond by the Interna- tional Forwarding Company over On- tario highways? K such an applica- tion has been received, would the Min- ister indicate the attitude of the gov- ernment in this connection?" He received the reply: "No application has been made to the Minister of Na- tional Revenue." He indicated that it might be introduced by a private bill, but he had no knowledge of it. (It's twenty minutes to seven; Tom Reid has just started to f>lay bag- pipes.) Walter Tucker of Rosthern, Sask., made a good speech, as he always does. The youth of Canada, he said, expect more from Canada than the threshing of old straw. They expect from this Parliament proposals which will solve, in a definite way, the pro- blems that face the Canadian people. He then proceeded to make a specific suggestion. It is that we keep the gold mined in Canada for one year, add it to the resei-ve we have, and use this gold as a base for currency issued by the Bank of Canada to the chartered banks on the basis of one dollar in paper money for evei-y fifty cents in gold. ^ That new moaey would be increased by ten times through the* loaning of credit by chartered banks "On the basis of our financial set-up as it vvas described by the Min- ister of Finance (Mr. Dunning) last session. The banking system of this country can and does t(nd to make loans and investments to the extent of ten dollars for every dollar that they have by way of such liquid reserves ..." In order to get the Bank credit out, Mr. Tucker suggests that a board of bank commissioners be set up to de- velop worthwhile mining projects in co-operation with geologists who pass upon the feasibility of the develop- ment. The chartered banks furnish the necessary credit, each one sharing pro rata in the risk. The government guarantees a return of two per cent. And, for the part played by the gov- ernment, one half interest in the en- terprise when developed would accrue to it. This seems advanced, but Mr. Tucker is a sound student of mone- tary matters. The great contention this week is, should Mr. McCullagh, editor of the Globe and Mail, have been allowed to use the national hook-up to broadcast his private opinions, or should he not? Denton Massey says he has no axe to grind for Mr. McCullagh, since the last time he did broadcast he attack- ed Denton, but he thinks McCullagh should be allowed to use the network of stations. That's what Mr. Bennett thinks, that's what Mr. Rowe thinks, that's what Mr. Manion thinks. But, Mr. Howe, Minister of Transport, thinks not. Mr. King thinks not. Mr. Coldwell thinks not. The think-ao crowd argues that free speech has been interfered with, that our liberties are being undermined, that it's Mr. McCullagh today and no telling who tomorrow. But the think- not crowd argues that the radio is a new and powerful medium, that we are just finding our way in the use of it, that the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation is an autonomous body; it is answerable not to the Minister, but to Parliament, The rulings made by C.B.C. last December 8th, state: (1) No individ- ual may purchase any network to broadcast his own opinions; (2) No proft-making corporation may pur- chase any network to broadcast opin- ions and (3) Properly constituted soc- ieties may purchase network time, subject tt> the following conditions; (e) Accept responsibility; (b) Pre- face and conclude by announcement making clear the auspices; <c) No in- Ipj-feronee with normal C.B.C. pro- grams; (d) Sufficient popular appeal («•) Within the wording and spirit of the regulation."* and not in violation of any law. There are very strong arguments r>|i both sides. The thing 1 like least about the controversy is the advertis- inir that is viven Mr McCullagh. He is nssAired of a great radio aiulienee, â€" AGNKS C. MACPHAII,. Along The Highway : of L«cal Sports : (By DeliMrt Smith) Shelburne 17, Flesherton 3 Everybody seems to be wondering what happened to the Flesherton sen- ior team in their game with Shel- burne last Friday night. True, Shel- burne is a very smart team with al- most everything a team management could wish for. They have a very fast first line and a second string which is second to none in the Central Ontario League. Flesherton, on the other hand, has a very good first line but requires a right winger for the second line. With one of our players playing on his wrong wing and the necessity of one of the first string members having to play centre for the second line makes it that much more difficult for both lines to function properly. However, these are not alibis for having lost to Shelburne. They are merely some of the difficulties that the Flesherton boys are operating under this season.. It is true Dun- dalk defeated Shelburne 3-2 on Dun- dalk ice earlier in the schedule and Flesherton held the same Dundalk team to a 3-3 tie also in Dundalk, and, as a result, Flesherton should have won from Shelburne according to the law of averages. However, this law does not always hold true as is shown in the case just mentioned. I think the real reason for the Flesherton defeat was because of over-confidence. This will wreck even the best hockey machine ever assembled and is one of the things that a management always tries to keep from entering the minds of his players. The Flesherton boys, after losing their first game of the season to Shelburne 6-1, settled down and won both engagements with Mark- dale as well as tying Dundalk. Then when the Shelburne team came along last week and with the game in their own rink not to mention the good sized crowd that was present, the locals seemed to blow wide open. Another good reason might also be mentioned, that being the locals were plainly outlucked right at the start. Once in particular they were right in on the visiting goaler and if Lary Luck had smiled on them the locals might have been on the other end of the long .score as it has often been proven that breaks may win or lose a game. No blame can be attached to any one member of the team more than another. The whole team played poorly and it is hoped that the game with Dundalk on Tuesday, January 24th, will find the locals snapping out of their slump. Almost every team experiences a slump at some time or another and this Shelburne game is a good one to get off our chests. Flesherton has two games yet both with Chatsworth not vcounting the Dundalk game which will have been played before this edition is publish- ed. One of these Chatworth games is to be played on January 27 in Chatsworth; the other is one postpon- ed froim earlier in the season. Keep inquiring as to te date of this game. If Flesherton can win these three games they will have amassed a tot- al of eleven points which should be enough to plaoe them in second or third position. The Semi-Pro team should also get in the play-offs this year as they are in third plwre at present with a total of five points. Ceylon, because of their loss of three players, two of them through serious accidents, were rumored to be withdrawing but this is not official as yet. We are glad to see the injured boys out around again and wish them a speedy and complete recovery. The Juvenile league seems to be well under way now. Six games have been played to date and on Thursday evening, January 26, the Shelburne Juveniles play in the local arena. We hope the local lads will ring up a victory. This Juvenile League is a step in the right direction towards producing material for the senior teams later on. Only boys under eighteen years of age can compete and it will give them the necessary experience and practice that will prepare them for senior company later on. A cup has also been donated for the winner and play-offs will be run according to the senior team's rules and regulations. As we all know the stars of today were the beginners of yesterday.

It was a win that was needed to bring Flesherton back into grace with their fans and fanettes. This win for Flesherton placed them in a tie with Dundalk for second place and was well earned. Combination play gave the locals the win, but on many of Dundalk's rushes they were out- lucked in not counting more, as two shots hit the goal posts and another one missed an open net, after Ferris had stopped a drive. The first per- iod showed heavy checking on both sides and neither able to get the advantage of the other. Dundalk was finally able to score when the second period was half over when Livei-more counted on a pass from McGuirk, and the period ended with Dundalk leading 1-0. Both teams went out for the last spasm with determination in their eyes, Dundalk to hold their advantage and Flesherton to wipe out the stig- ma of their last defeat. Play ranged from end to end with Flesherton pressing hard and their efforts were finally rewarded when a ganging at- tack found Piper behind the Dundalk goal and a pass-out was given to Boyd who shot and Gorrell made sure of the rebound. That goal was scored and the count tied with but five min- utes to go. Within a minute later Piper was again behind the Dundalk goal and passed out to Johnson who won the game with his shot that Sims didn't have a chance to stop. Smith and McCutcheon were unable to play the former from the effects of an af- fected tooth and the latter with a cracked rib and Ben Leavell of the Semi-Pro team was pressed into serv- ice and was unfortunate enough to be a second late scoring Flesherton's first goal when he counted after the bell had rung to close the second period. Every man on the team play- ed a whale of a game and the fans expect great things of them in the coming playoffs. This was the first loss that Dundalk has taken this season and on Flesher- ton's game in Dundalk the score was a three all tie. There is always plenty of excitement when these two teams come together and a good crowd was on hand to witness the contest Dundalk wins from Shelburne, Shel- burne snows Flesherton under and then Flesherton outscores Dundalk. Try and make sense out of that and figure why, if you can. Dundalk â€" Goal, Sims; defence, M. Thompson and Baechler; centre Mc- Guirk; wings, Livermpre and Cope- land; alternates, R.
