Cecil Hart was unable to say just what was what about his bolstered team. However, six new men had been added to the roster, so ther> must have been tentative places for them at least. Hart admitted that: "Oh, yes," he conceded, "but then you have to remember we‘ll be without Aurel Joliat, Marty Burke and Pit Leâ€" pinge. And I don‘t say we have to keep al} these fellows. We might, for inâ€" send young Smith down to the minors, where we will keep strings on him until next year. "Then, this new purchase will give us five defensemen. We‘ll likely keep four. Right now, we have Babe Sieâ€" bert, Walter Buswell, Cliff Goupille and then Evans and Wentworth. I‘m inâ€" clined to favour Wentworth, because, of these five fellows, he‘s the only righthand shot, and we could do with a righthander. ‘"You must remember, too, that cur team will be speeded up by the return Oof Polly Drouin and Armand Mondou, b6Gth hurt badly last season." In Chicago the management of the Black Hawks announced purchase of a complete forward line from the Marâ€" coons. Russ Blinco, centre, will move to Chicago, flanked by Baldy Northcott at left wing and Earl Robinson at right wing. Bill Tobin, President of the Hawks, did nct announce the amount of money involved, but described it as the "most important sum" for a National League transaction in the last five years. Try The Advance Want Advertisements A brief announcement told of the sale for cash to Montreal Canadi>sns of Stew Evans and Cy Wentworth, veterâ€" an deofensemen; Jimmy Ward, Bob Gracie, and Herbie Cain, two of whom helped form the once brilliant line of Gracieâ€"Cainâ€"Marker; and young Deosse Smith, a youngster they brought up last season in »ffort to bolster the faltering ranks. Details of the negotiations were not disclosed, and officials declined to mention the amount of money involved, Ccobb, sound asleep when Eyston took the flats in the rarly dawn, announced after hearing what his rival had done that, "after due consideration we have decided to abandon further quest for the world land speed record so far as this visit is concerned." Previously inâ€" dications were that the two Englishâ€" men might continue their hazardous contest as long as their cars, weather and finances held out.

Eyston hoisted his own average from 31142 to‘ 345.49 on August 29 only to see the achievement excelled by his fellow countryman. Eyston Sets New Record For Speed The world‘s automobile speed record tumbled twice at Bonneville Salt Plats in Utah in as many days last week. Capt. George T. Eyston on Friday drove his pawerful "Thunderbolt" through the measured mile at 357.5 miles an hour to regain the title, which had been usurpâ€" ed by Joihn R.

They | immediately set out at a Scout pace and were soon round the bend where they lsaw a truck full of children sprawled all along the readside. Everyone seemâ€" Ied injured or hysterical. "Although she weighs only 100 pounds she can hoist a sixtyâ€"pound canoe to her shoulders and portage it on the trail. Last winter when there was no guiding work she helped her brother run trap line in the wilderness." "Here is a country of countless rockâ€" bound lakes, most of which can be reached only by portages, many little used trails, backâ€"packing Indians who know the use of a tump line, brook trout that grow big, and lake trout that seem to enjoy hitting a flashing spoon lure. "And not only are there Indiar. guides ready to take the fishermen on the trails to new camp sites and fishâ€" ing holes, but there also is an efficient girl guide in this fascinating lake counâ€" tryâ€"Marguerite Belair, a 25â€"yearâ€"old Canadian sportsâ€"woman. "For three years this slim, 100â€"pound girl has been taking parties down the Mississagi River, on trips to different lakes, and leading the way on portazge trails to the best fishing spots among the rocky hills. "John Logie Baird, British inventor, was born August 13th, 1888, in Halensâ€" burgh, Scotland, and was educated at Larchfield Academy and Glasgow Uniâ€" versity. He served apprenticeship as n eiliectrical engineer, but abandoned enâ€" gineering for a business career. In 1922 owing to illâ€"health he gave up active business and retired to Hastings where he took up the study of television, his researches finally enabling him to give n January, 1926, a demonstration of television which has been claimed to be the first demonstration of true teleâ€" vision ever given." "The largest lake trout caught when we were exploring some of the lakes near Jobammageeshig, atout twentyâ€" six miles above Thessalon, weighed 28 pounds 10# ounces, which is a 2oodâ€" sized fish on anybody‘s line. "There are lakes yet to be named, and more waiting to be mapped correctly in this wild region west, north and east of Jobammageeshig. Northern Ontario, paradise, gets boost in Tribune. Writing of his Missisagi River district, penâ€"pictures it as follows Last week in referring to the recents visit of Mr. D. Mackie to the Old Counâ€": try and the interest he took there in} the wonderful progress being made in television, The Advance referred to a Mr. "Blair‘ being prominent in the reâ€" search and discoverey work that was making television so successful in Engâ€" | land. The "Blair" was a typographical error for another Scottish nameâ€"â€" "Baird.‘‘ Naturally, it pleased a Scotsâ€" man like Mr. Mackie that one of his countrymen should be taking a promiâ€" nent place in this new science of teleâ€" visionâ€"a science that has made little progress on this side of the ocean. Mr.! J¢chn Logie Baird is properly credited with a large part of the success of work on television in the Old Land. In this connection it is interesting to note the biographical note under the heading of . "John Logie Baird" in the Encyclopedia Britannica. biographical note reads as follows: Big Canoe Portaged by a {ienuine Girl Guide It was only a few minutes before the Scouts were on hand to aid the injured passengers. First Aid Patrol imâ€" mediately set to work to take care of the most seriously injured. The camp doctor was on hand to give directions to the Patrols and to take care of the patients. The second First Aid team Eegan to administer simple first aid to those who had minor injuries, While It was quite evident that a load of campers bound for a nearby private camp had overturned. One of the Scouts turned right about and sped at double time back to camp while the other Scout remained at the accidrnt to help out as best he could under the circumstances. No sooner had the Scout carried the news into camp than special First Aid and Service Patrols were organized to help out. Up in the mountains of the west a group of Scouts had a summer camp. The roads through the mountain passes are narrow, full of curves, and in many phees follow close to the edge of dsep canyons. Any travel by trueck or car has to be a snail‘s pace and any mishap is likely to have disastrous consequences. Baird Not Blair the Father of Television in Britain BOY SCOUTS fisherman‘s in tlu» Chicago is trip to the THE PORCUPTXE ADVANCE TTMMINS ONTARIO the two First Aid Patrols were caring for the injured, two Service Patrols wer; also hard at work. One was cutâ€" ting a level path back to the Scout camp through the thick bush while the Patrol carried the injured on stretâ€"chers quickly constructed from tent ’poiuundconts. As fast as the injured were carried into the camp they woere placed to rast on eots and beds made up for them by Scouts who had reâ€" ‘ mained in camp. And these boys had ’prepared hot tea and food. It | was remarkable how quickly all the Scouts had appeared on hand to carry through every detail in a most profesâ€" sioral manner. ‘"The most important problem of the producer on this side of the Atlantic," Mr. Euler concluded, "is to maintain a consistency of quality and a continuâ€" ity of supply in his own line. Every precaution must be taken against the inclusion of damaged or inferior goods in supposedly highâ€"quality shipments to England. And, if there is anything more damaging to such a trade as we are trying to foster than the shipping of a poor product, it is to create a markâ€" et and then not to fill it. Consequently, my final word to the Canadian farmâ€" er, fisherman, meat packer, and canâ€" Apple Day for the Timmins District Will be in all probability be Oct. 15thâ€" the same day as other big districts such as Toronto will be holding theirs. As in other years each Scout‘s yearly reâ€" "A4stration fee of fifty cents will be paid out of the funds collected. ««Th> Timmins Boy Scouts Association annual meeting will be held on the 24th of October, the time and placé to be announced later. "An intensive and scientifically planâ€" ned series of appeals to the British consumer on behalf of such typically Canadian produce as apples, cheese, meat and salmon is being carried out across the length and breadth of the Motherland, and with the coâ€"operation of Canada House, everything possible is being done to promote and advance the sale of Canadian foodstuffs to our British cousins." "There," said Mr. Euler, ‘"in the heart of the British Commonwealth, Empire sentiment is, of course, extremely strong. And on top of the Englishâ€" man‘s natural preferenceâ€" for Empire fdod is the knowledge that in the event of war he would have to depend to a greater degree than ever upon produce grown or manufactured in the Domâ€" inions and colonies. It is therefore fortunate that at this psychological time Canada is carrying out through its trade commissioners and its agents in England and Scotland a marketing effort on a scope never before attemptâ€" ed in the British Isles by a sister naâ€" tion of the Empire. Vanâ€"side posters were being made the spearhead of the marketing camâ€" paign, Mr. Euler explained, while newsâ€" paper advertising was also being exâ€" tensively used. The advertising proâ€" gram was so planned, he said, that each product was emphasized in its own season. Reporting on his survey of the curâ€" rent marketing program being carried out in Britain on behalf of the Domâ€" inion government and in particular his own Department of Trade and Comâ€" merce, Mr. Euler declared that never in history had the Canadian producer of foodstuffs enjoyed such opportunity and privilege in the British market. ‘"Food," said Mr. Euler, "has always been of prime importance to the people of England, who must depend upon waterâ€"borne commerce."‘ Ottawa, Sept. 17.â€"(Special Despatch) â€"AÂ¥ British public though somewhat concerned by the threat of war, neverâ€" theless genuinely interested in the merits of Canadian foodstuffs, was deâ€" scribed by Hon. W. D. Euler, Dominion minister of trade and commerce, yesâ€" terday following his return from a visit to England. During the work a group of forest rangers happeoned along. They claimed that the first aid work was being so carefully administered that they could be of little heip. Scouts once again were on hand in time of nesd. Would you be able to hnandle such a situation? Saturday was an eventful day for Dome and Timmins Cubs who took part in the district‘s first Cub Palava. Over eighty Cubs and leaders were present at the i»vent, held on Mr. Harrison‘s field near the Dome Pump House. Everyone enjoyed the programme from beginning to end coming home tired but happy. EFach feature will be reâ€" membered by the Cubs; the Treasure Hunt which took them through the bush from hay stack to hay stack and finally to a bottle of soft drink each and a marshmallow for everybody; the "Olympics" which required Cubs to throw pie plate "discus"â€"and paper ones at thatâ€"against the wind; the kite flying; the football game with 26 on each team plated on a field on the side of a hill with sticks for hay stacks sticking up every fifteen feet or so; and the Red Plower which closed the Palava. We are sorry that some of you missed it but we can be sure that you will have just as good a time at the next one we hold. Here‘s a hike. Seven Frenchâ€"Canaâ€" dian Scouts of St. Mary‘s College, Monâ€" treal, hiked from that city by way of Ottawa to a camp on Lake Simon, Cheneville, Qu., a distance of 200 miles. On the first leg of the journey they did an average of 18 miles a day, to make Ottawa within the week. British Interested in Canadian Food Scoutingly years, Scouter (From Port Hope News) The British have shown us the way again. We may think we are smart on this continent, but we have not evolved anything like so well thought out : pan for reducing motor accidents as that recently proposed for the considerâ€" ation of the British Minister of Transâ€" port, and which may be adopted. Here it is: All motorists now holding licenses will be provided with new ones, "Class C." At the end of six months motorâ€" ists who have not been concerned in accidents would get other new licenses fnarked "B." At the end of a year drivers still accidentâ€"free would get "A" licenses. An "A" license would entitle a driver to cheaper insurance rate>s and a cheaper car license, but only as long as he held it. The idea is to have every car driver classed by his licens> according to his accident record over the past six months, and treated accordingly. ed effort to ship only the best goods to Great Britain, and to keep on ship ping them as long as they are availâ€" able. Only thus can the Canadian producer realize fully the tremendous potentialties of the British market which is now being opened up to him." And he would only hold it as long as he remained accidentâ€"free. One acâ€" cident and in six months an "A" driver would become a "B" driver again. Two accidents in a year and he would be down to "C" wher> he began. Three accidents in a year and a half would make him a "D" driver and four in two years would bring him suspension. This term at Kirkland Lake public schools it has been found necessary to try the stagger system to accomâ€" modate the large number of pupils. It has been necessary to hire the Masonic hall for a classroom, while there are ten new rooms added to the school acâ€" commodation this year. The total number of children attending the pubâ€" lic schools at Kirkland Lake this year is 2,243,. Not only are the Kirkland Lake classrooms taxed over capacity but the same is true about the playâ€" grounds,. The result is that in addiâ€" tion to the fact that the classes will be conducted on the stagger or shift sysâ€" tem, some starting earlier than others, and others continuing after the closâ€" ing of the usual school hours, it may also be necessaryâ€"to extend the shift or stagger system to the recess periods so that there may be proper accomâ€" modation for all. The total registraâ€" tion of the public schools in Kirkâ€" land Lake this term was 86 more than the highest attendance figure for all the classes last year. An innovation this year at Kirkland Lake is the inâ€" auguration of a special class for "New Canadian" children.

GOOD ALONE, AND A SWELL MIXER Cardinal Beverages Bottled Exclusively by day night by a score of i1â€"0 dut Manâ€" ager Bill Brydge in the fifth inning following a decision at the plate that he would play the game under protest. The Lakg Shore manager contended that Shalley who was called out by Umpire Frawley was entitled to the base on a passed ball. Shalley had been on Second base when Brennan singled to centre. Murâ€" ray threw the ball in and Shalley rounded third base. Coming into the plate he crashed into Schultz, Porcuâ€" pine catcher, and fell to the ground in a daze about a foot from the plate. ‘The ball went past Schultz and hit the grandstand. The latter recovered the ball and tossed to Senese, who tagged Shalley before his teammates pulled his prostrate form across the plate, The umpire called him out. _ According to the decision made at the protest meeting which was held in Kirkland Lake, Shalley was entitled to the base on the passed ball which hit the grandstand. The ruling was that Refuse To Meet Lake Shore In Replay Of Deciding Game a player runs at his own risk on a passed ball that fails to hit the backâ€" stop but any kall hitting the grandâ€" stand automatically gives the runner the privilege of taking one base. The league executive, in considering the protest, even went the length of getting in touch by wire with the St. Louis Sporting News, international baseball authority, for a decision. They agreed that where a ball hits the backâ€" stop the runner is entitled to a base. Accordingly the executive ordered the game to be replayed on Saturday. Porâ€" cupine management were officially adâ€" vised of the decision but Saturday morning wired Kirkland Lake to the effect that they would refuse to play. Automatically the league title goes to Lake Shore, who will now meet Smith‘s Falls in the finals for the Eastern Ontario championship. The result of the protest and Porâ€" cupine‘s decision to default, was learnâ€" ed with regret by the tsam‘s supportâ€" ers.
