Mines League Standing Overtime describing chis new THE PLAY o 24 THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE TIMMINS, ONTARIO Cobalt oldâ€"timers will recall that it us>d to be the practice to import ho:key players for a ‘single game with rival teams such as Hailleybury. Both towns had plenty of monsy and waggering on ‘the games was rife, The trick was to bring in some really smart performer . whose presence made all the difference between winninz and losing. The comâ€" fing of such a player was never herâ€" : alded in advanc> and only the insiders \knew who would line up at starting |time,. Naturaly the situation was a | perfect setâ€"up for the wis°. Incidentâ€" , ally, the demand for certain was su>h that they could ask any price and get it. Some fantasiic payments were made in the excitement. However, local !feeling was such that a "foreign" playâ€" ier really took a chance in appâ€"aring. lagainst the home town boys. The rinki pracstically camping on the team‘s and unfortunately there wore customers who would not heitate to take a pass at some successful goalâ€" getter. _ Many tales have been told about the sums of money that changed hands on these occassons. There probably was was so constructed that it did not offer much protection, the audience i ‘The collapse of the Cobalt rink has ‘brought forward many interesting remâ€" inisences of oth:r daysâ€"when the Renâ€" frew Millionaires‘ hockey team play>d at Cobalt and other items: of equal atâ€" | traction. W. J. Gorman, writing in The Northern Miner, has th»> following to say about Cobalt rink:â€" Cobalt â€"Riuk | _ The Cobalt rink has finally fallen !‘down. For years the event was foreâ€" cast, warnings were issu2d by the town authorities, small boys were told to |keep out of the plase and insurance companies refused to take a chanc»> on it. . The collapse of the structure has a certain significance to a number of, people who recall th> days when t\e rink was an important social centre in the silver town. Cobalt had on> of| the best hocksy teams in the world at one time, being in the league with R>nâ€" |fraw Millionaires, with Montrsal Otâ€" tawa and Haileybury. The eastern teaims used to make the long {rip north to play league games in the mining communitiss and provide a r:al spetâ€", tacle. a pleasure outing o the spectators wao were raised on the Cobalt brand. Hockey was not as well organized in those days and the play>rs apparentâ€" ly did not know that it was possible to take it easy. One memorable engagâ€" ment was between Cobalt and Sudbury in some of playâ€"offs for the Northern clhampionship and "Shorty" Gréen was carried off the ice four or five times. For this battle the league imported Lou Marsh to do the referring and he said afterwards, that he had never officiated at an affair where so many players were covicusly intent on murdering each othzr. After the hey day of northern hcockey nad passed the mines had an organâ€" ization. â€" McKinleyâ€"Darragh, Nipissing and the O‘Brien properties ecach supâ€" ported a team and had some smart players. â€"Several of them, such as the Dennenays graduated into the big tims later. The main feature of the Mines League was the bitter rivalry which exâ€" isted. Some of the battles which took place were really mayhem. Tsday‘s rrand of hockey has always look=d like Last week The Advance noted the fact that the old hockey rink had finally collapsed of its own weight Literally for years, just such a fac; had been forseen for the Cobalt rink. *"*The Duildirz had been ‘"‘condemnéed" hy building, insurance, and other authoritâ€" ies, as unsafe for the public. These warnings wer» not always taken serâ€" iously. Fortunately, hewever, the final collapsé of the rink did not have casualâ€" ties, as some feared might be th> case. Th» race was rltn in two laps, and was closely covers$d by the Argentine press and radio. The drivers remained cver night in Bama Blanca at the ond of the first lap, but were not allowed to touch thz*ir cars exzept for five minutes for tuning up before the second lap 304 under way. Not only did the Fard Vâ€"8‘s take the first five nlas:s, but they al> capured sevonth, ninth, tonth and fiftsenth placses. The pace was so hot that only 34 cars were ble to finish the race Lively Hockey There Wind:sr, Ont., . thâ€"F3ra cars scored a slam in t‘tn annual_ runn.ng of twrae 1000â€"mile Argentine road race by capiluring th> first five plazes in the houUyâ€"zont»sted dash from Buenos C cmpany was inf Euenos Aires.

Collapse of Rink at Cobalt Recalls the Reminiscences of the Days of the "Millionaire Team" _and Later of the "Mines League. Ford Cars Score "Slam" in 1800â€"Mile Road Race Incidentally Sturgeon Falls was anâ€" oth=r hot hockey town in those years and used to give Sudbury some rar» contests. In fact, the rink in the paper town became a sort of a byword amongâ€" st playors, for the reason that the spectators were so partisan that it was practically impossible to leave town with a victory. Another tough place to leave with a win was New Liskeard. nQt much room for exaggeration, beâ€" calse the rivalry betwoen Haileybury New Liskeard and Cobalt was such that almost anything was credible. It was reported that in famous game beâ€" tween Haileybury and Cobalt about $30,000 was involved. Haileybury had imported Newsy Lalonds from Montâ€" real and he did the trick in scoring four or five goals to ruin the silver town gamblers. Winchester Press:â€"No attempt has yet been made at Ottawa to face up to the whole principle of mulcting Britain by tariffs during this desperate emerâ€" geney.

"The very ownership of life insurance is an indication of the thrift which it is only fit and proper should be urged upon all Canadian citizzsns on the home front at this time and I am confident that policyholders will conâ€" tinue in the contribution to war effort which is represented by the virtue of thrift. They will, I am sure, increase their holdings in Savings Certificatos as well as take care of their income tax obligations, and maintain thoir insurance protection in full force in the new year.

Life Insurance‘s Vital Part n War Effort of Canada "As in 1914â€"18, so now, life insurante stands foursquare against all the winds that blow and in thes> days, when so much is heard of home defence, it is woll to rememker that, economically speaking, life insurance continues, as in the past, to be the basis of financial security for millions of Canadian men and women. I can give no more sinâ€" cere advice to our millions of policyâ€" nold:rs than to urge them t hold fast to their life insurance," said Mr. Landâ€" "Despite twelve months of war and the increasing pressure of taxation upon people in all walks of life," continu:d Mr. Lander, "Life insurance in forsce in all companies operating in Canadaâ€" Dominion, Provincial and fraternal orâ€" ganizations â€" reached a new high of over szven billion dollars; and total sales of new insurange in 1940â€"1life, greoup and industrialâ€"were only a fracâ€" tion of one per cent. under those for the preceding twelve months and totalâ€" led, on a conservative estimate, well over $€99,000,000.

Were it not for savings represented by lif> inâ€" surance, the danger of inany psople becoming burdens upon the state would e groatly increased, he stated.

Despite the barrage, the machine must ke poised with great accuracy at th> low height and angle from which the torpedo reaches its mark.

The machinges flown by these gallant young men of the Fleet Air Arm are of firstâ€"class quality and can be used for nsarly every purpose.

As the need for a stronger Naval Air Force became apparent, it was decided to abandon th> dual method. In May, 1939, the Air Arm passed to the control of the Navy. There was a Royal Naval Air Service befors 19814. In 1917 the RNAS. beâ€" Then came Norway. Within a fow days of that gallant, illâ€"fated »xpediâ€" tion the deeds of the FPleet Air Arm leapt into world prominence, when it played a great part in protecting out troops and ships against 2nemy bombâ€" 2rs, and launched its own daring atâ€" tacks upon the enemy bases, warships, transports and supply ships. Admiralty‘s Praise "We are proud of the Fleet Air Arm" was the signal made by the Admiralty to the young filers at the conclusion of these operations. It is rare for the deeds of the Navy to be s>, warmly zommeonded. For many months of the> war the naval Air Arm came little into the news. The traditions of a "Silent Serâ€" vice" are its traditions too, Liitle or nothing was said of the thousands of mileés of the North Ssa and Atlantic ceaselessly patrolled, of the clashes with »enemy aircraft, the sighting and sinkâ€" ing of enemy Uâ€"boats.

This new Canadian entérâ€" priss is obviously well on the way to achieving perfection, and the. skier, bracing himself on a mountain run this winter, will not have his skis to blamo if hss faills to negotiate that turn!
