Life. Mr. Raiston spoke on Hon. Mr. Euler‘s behalf at Hockey War Rages Stand of Kitchener Making Waterloo the "Goat" The hockey controversy between Kitchener and Wateroo which has raged since the 1890‘s, but which for more than a decade had been almost dormant until being awakened some two or three years ago when Waterâ€" Joo returned to O.H.A. hockey under Its own name entering an intermeâ€" diate team, flared again last woek when the Waterio0 Hockey Club at its annua) meeting at the town hall decided to enter a Junior O.H.A. "A" team to replace the "B" team which it entered last year. The move, if accepted by the O.:H.A. executive, will see a Junior team in the same group from Kitchener and from Waâ€" terloo. The move is being fought bitterly by the Kétohener Club, operated by tie Kitchener Rink Company, who have told the Waterioo club that if they ice a Junior A team the Kitchâ€" ener ice will not be available for their games. Waterioo, however, is proceeding with arrangements to ice an "A" team. B At the annual meeting the officers of the club voiced strong criticism of the monopoly which Kitchener inâ€" terests have held for years in hockey circles, leaving Waterloo to be the "goat" taking what material for their teams was cast off by the Kitâ€" chener clubs. Secretary Jack Adams was particularly emphatic in his deâ€" nouncement of the Kitchener club‘s attitude. Officers for the new year include: Hon. President, E. F. Seagram; Hon. viceâ€"presidents, T.
