Intermediate series, South Porcupine won from Sudbury at Sudbury with the decisive score of 9 to 3. The ice was poor and the Sudbury team is reported as having been off colour, but reports of the game would indicate that South Porcupine team had the edge on the Sudbury lads all the way along. It is expected, however, that Sudbury will put up a more strenuous battle in the second game which is to be at South Porcupine arena this (Thursday) evenâ€" ing.

As The Advance has pointed out times without number @ll letters and items must positively be signed by the writer. The name thus signed will not be given out or used, but it is imperative that some signature be shown before The Advance can accept any such communications for publication. No reputable newsâ€" paper accepts anonymous letters no matter how truthful or harmless they may seem. Names must be signed, not for publication but as evidence of good faith. The C.N.P.C. Review, published in the interests of the Canada Northern Power Corporation employees, in its current issue says:â€"*"Those who appreâ€" ciate real humour will find a sample of this rare commodity in our Englehart Echoes. The writer naively informs us that the local hockey team only lost one game. And then we are informed further on that it was the only game they had played. If you can beat that as a sample of letting the team down lightly, please let us have it." Band Concert on Sunday After Church Services A good programme is being arranged for the band concert to be held in the New Empire theatre after the church services on Sunday. Something espeâ€" clally interesting is expected in the way of instrumental music. The vocal soloists for the occasion will also be very popular.
