THURSTON, Editor EUITUKI.VL COMMENT We extend congratulations and beat wi.shes to liill Uo»s, who is the new editor of the Stayner Sun, having purchased the paper from Eric M. Wilson. The nt>w editor entered the newspaper field as a printer's devil with The Sun and for the past six months has been managing editor. Mr. Wilson is advertising manager of the Montreal Star for Ontario. The Sun is a bright and newsy paper and we know that under the new edi- tor that it will continue to serve Stayner and district as faithfully as it has done in the past. * * • • It ii with gratitude that we wish to thank our brother editors for th» many references in their papers of <rar father, the late W. H. Thurston, for so many years jeditor of this journal. While he will not now be able to read the references as to his life, he felt deeply obligated for the many spontaneous thoughts expressed by his editor friends when he retired from active newspaper work last fall and which we acknowledged by pub- lishing. While it would be our de- sire to publish some of the fine ed- itorial comment we will refrain from doing so, and will only express in this manner our deep appreciation to our fellow editors for their kindly references at this time and also last fall when he was able to read them Flesherton 4, Markdale 2 Flesherton Juveniles hung up an- other victoi7 on Thursday last when they handed Markdale their second straight defeat by a score of 4-2. From all reports the game was a rather rough affair with the Mark- dale players being the chief offenders. Graham came home with a cut in his forehead that required the doctor's care and Phillips is nursing a badly swollen forearm as a result of the battle. Joe Banks climbed into the scoring column for the first time when he notched three counters \vhile McConkoy secured the other. Page and Perkins were the marksmen for Markdale. George Boyd was referee. Priceville 5, Proton 2 Flesherton Semi- Pros Hand Priceville S-3 Setback Flesherton and Priceville clashed for the first time this season in u jiustpuned Semi-Pro Kaniu last Thurs- day. To date the Priceville team had lust but one game while Flesherton had dropped two, but lately the lat- ter has been flying high. The local team was badly shaken up when two of their forwards hooked up with the Juvenile entry but now has rounded out to perhaps better form than ever with the aid of Bill Welton and Les Seeley, left and right wingers respectively. Both these players had their armour on for the first time Thui-sday night but turned in a very elTective game. The game was hard fought all the way and the large crowd of spectators saw clean, fast hockey with only three penalties being handed out, two to Priceville and one to Flesherton. Teeter led the scoring brigade with five points but Leavell followed close behind with three. The latter really worked like a Trojan as he built up the plays for his high scoring wing mate. E. Turnbull, Bell and McLean were good for Priceville with both goaltcnders making some remarkable .saves. Johnson's rushing was a high- light of the game also. The second string of Morgan, Russell and Seeley, although kept off the score sheet, turned in a great checking game.

Pro- ton took the lead in the first period and held it until the middle of the second period when McLean made a beautiful end to end rush to beat Blackburn with a knee-high shot, who previously had been kicking rubber in all directions. Play was rather even with only one penalty being handed out to date. Priceville took the lead in the second period and gathered three more in the third per- iod to one by Proton. This defeat blasts Proton's chances of making the play-offs even farther down the line for they must win their two re- maining games to make the grade. Dundalk Trappers Trouce Ceylon Clippers 10-1 ItJ a Semi-Pro hockey game played In Dundalk on Wednesday last, Cey- lon, still minus their injured players, lost out to the strong Dundalk team by a 10-1 score. The game was never in doubt as the home team scored once in the first period, four llmos in the second period and five in the last stanza, ("eylon's goal came mid- way through the third period whi'n Teeter scored on a pass from Mar- shall. Only two penalties were hand- ed out both to Ceylon, Skills and E. Plestrr being the offenders. Earl Johnson of Flesherton was referee. Why write Ictten and Knd money order*?

The play was ns elo.se as the score would indicate and the local lads in going down to defeat were far from being disgraced as this Chatsworth aggregation arc much heavier and they also have a first string that has participated in the C.O.H.L. intermediate group. The two teams go right back at each other in Chatsworth t<»-night when we hope the score will he a reversal of the above. Chatsworth took a three-goal lead in the first period hut during the second period each team counted a piiir. And in the third period Chats- worth collected two more while the home forces drove three into Ithe twine. Flosherton's goals were all of the clean cut variety while three ot Chatsworth's were more luck than ifood management. On the Flesher- ton goals Plester banged home Mc- Conkey'a rebound after Graham built up the play, Joe Ranks got the second on n forward pass from brother Bob. Rob Hanks pot the third an<l fourth ;ronls unassisted whih* (Jrahnm se- cured the final counter. Both for- ward lines worked well with the first line doing most of the scoring hut the second string was making up for u'onls by checking the Chnt^ivvorth team to a standstill.

Well, folk, it looks very much like Flesherton and Dundalk will tangle in the semi final series this season. By virtue of their win over Shelburne 5-4 last Friday in Shelburne, Dundalk rose to within one point of the Shel- burne aggregation. Dundalk still has one game to play with Chatsworth, a posXponed game which was to be played Tuesday, January 7th. Shelburne has completed its sched- ule and has a total of twelve points. Dundalk has eleven with one game to play while Flesherton has nine and also has one game to play. Even if Flesherton does win its game they will still be in third place provided Dundalk also wins its game. If, how- ever, Flesherton won and Dundalk lost there would be a second place tie between these two teams. The surprise win of the season was that of Chatsworth over the Mark- dale squad in Chatsworth last Friday. Markdale threw away their chance of making sure of a play-off berth by losing and now if ChaJ:sworth can pull out a win or even a tie in their two remaining games they will elim- inate the latter from further com- petition as the latter have no more games to play. Markdale has surely fallen by the wayside since its initial game which has been the only win the team has registered. Chatsworth, on the other hand, played five straight games without a win but now since they have started to click, and in an im- pressive way, it may be hard for the second place team to get by them in the semi-final series. However, if Chatsworth fails to win or tie either of their two remaining games they will still be tied with Markdale for the last play-off berth. Either one of two ways may be used to decide the winner as I explained in last week's edition. If a sudden death game is played to decide who will go on in the play-offs, the game will either be played in Dundalk or Flesherton, probably the latter as it is the nearer to the two towns which are involved. If Flesherton meets Dundalk in the semi-finals this season it will mark the first time in the history of the Father Callaghan Trophy that these two teams have met in the play-offs. Always in the past one team has been eliminated before meeting the other. So we see that a new and interesting home and home game series is in store for the fans of these two teams. Dundalk has always been a hard team for the locals to conquer espec- ially on Dundalk ice and it is interest- ing to note that the local lads have defeated them once and tied them once in their two engagements to date. The Dundalk team is a very strong defensive team and one which is very dangerous in the play-offs. They have a strong, heady defence with a very good defensive second line. The first line il5 very fast on the break-aways and is always dang- erous when given this chance. Last Friday a team representing the Owen Sound Trapper Cubs came to Flesherton for an exhibition game for the purpose of giving the local boys much needed practice during the lay-off this week. However, four of the regulars, namely Boyd, Gorrell, Daigavel and McCutcheon,' failed to show up for the game and as a re- sult the other six members were left "holding the bag" so to speak. If the team had been at full strength we could have given the visitors quite a struggle. The Owen Sound boys proved to be real sports by not piling up the score which they could have done if they wished. Instead the northern boys, led by the well known Eddie Sargeant, just kept pace with the home lads and did a good job of making a game out of it. On sev- eral occasions did they show real sportsmnns'hip especially at the end of the overtime when they were told they were defeated 11-10 when they could have won so easily. The visitors even went so far as to congratulate Flesherton upon win- ning and asked for another game when We would be at full strength so they could really defeat us (if they could). Not a word of argument was spoken by any member of the team when they lost thus showing tae finer extreme of sportsmanship. Recently a neighboring entry of the Semi-Pro loop was defeated by the local Semi- Pro squad. The management of the visiting team handed out a terrible tongue lashing when there was no reason for it whatever. This just shows the diflference in people and how some are juat not able to "take" a defeat. Be seeing you next week. Premier Dnladier says he will not sMcrifice to maintain peace. Bravo words, of course, hut he would hnve to sacrifice if peace departed. Canada's Position (Continued From Fmgt 1) considered important enough to re- arm and stand by their mistakes, with our Bren guna pointed at the enemy. Then we are not a North American nation; we are only a glorified exten- sion of Britain and France in Amer- ica.'' The issue, Mr. Heon said, was colonialism or Canadianism. The matter of refugees has been touched on by many members, but was particularly dealt with in a bill offered by Mr. A. W. NeiU of B.C., in which he sought amendment to the I migration Act to prevent refugees being deported from Canada (only because of having been on relief here) back to the countries from which they had escaped. Such refugees might have gotten out of his own country with a little more of his own money than the country wished him to take, or he may have expressed political views contrary to the accepted faith of the dictator, or he might have escaped in the night without the con- sent of the authorities. But for Can- ada to deport such a refugee, to a country where liberty is dead, is in- consistent with the tradition of Brit- ish liberty. Mr. Neill asked that the examining board be given discretion- ary powers. The plight of refugees formed the greater part of the subject matter in the address made by Mr. A. A. Heaps, one of the three Jewish members in the House of Commons. He made a controlled but moving appeal to the Canadian government to offer asylum to the persecuted; not only his own people. He said; "Never in the history of mankind have human beings been treated so barbarously as at the present time by Fascist powers. Families which had been rooted for centuries in the land in which they lived had been deprived and robbed of everything they poss- essed and ordered to leave the coun- try, their only crime being that their racial origin or religious beliefs were distasteful to the powers or their democratic principles unwelcome in totalitarian states. The pitiful plight of these people has aroused interna- tional concern . . . Canada has yet to take her place with other democratic countries in showing her sympathy in a practical manner.''

It interested me to hear a Liberal member, Mr. Gladstone of Wellington South, advance the same idea. He argued that the independence and in- itiative of private members was cramped by the knowledge that a vote against a government measure defeat- ed the government and that they could be liberated by amending the rule so that the defeat of a govern- ment measure would not mean the defeat of the government, but only the carrying of a straight want-of- confidence motion could do so.
