The Alman- dale team is much smaller than the St. Mary's outt, but they are a gwme lot and not afraid to give and take bumps with any husky. Experience will improve their chances. St. l\Iar_v's were determiined to win. Having already lost two .games, they had to win to` stay in the running. Leo and Richard Flvalierty and De~ sourdie showed mp Well for St. Mary's.

As anticipated, the speech from the throne contains no forecast of redistribution, nor even of an ex- periment With P.R." The rwmor continues that the Government wtilt attempt to steal its way back into power by imposing "proportional repr-esenta,tion," as distinct from the` well knotwn principle of representa- tlion by D`O`p1ll"ttl0!1, upon certa.'in; cities which are strongly Conserva- tive. If that decision be aidhered to there will be, as Mr. Ferguson suggests, some U.F.4O. meimbers who will do some mighty late seeding, for the move will be fought to a nish. The deliberate neglect to redistri~ bute the constituencies is a. serious mzttter, in view of the inequalities existing, but the Conservatives do not seem to be bothered over it from H. party stztndpolnt. Mr. Ferguson is understood to rather relish the idea. of letting the Government go back to precisely the same con- stituencies which gave it power, and let the poople reverse their decision of 1919.
