Toronto, Nov. 14.--One of the most encouraging gatherings in the interests of basketball development in the history of the Ontario Ama- teur Basketball Association was the annual meeting of that body held at Central Y.M.C.A.

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE Aviation is something new for the boys of this city but apparently some understand it better than oth- ers; for there was quite a humming around the Y. M. C. A. Airdrome on Saturday morning as four pilots and crews descended after their first flight. North Simeoe pilot took the high- est altitude with his airplane White Bird and circled well over the North end of the city covering 232 miles, he and his crew are pleased with their trial trip, and are eager for another flight; they intend to cov- er the territory thoroughly so no boy over 9 years of age will escape their eye. Mary street pilot and crew with their airship Columbia thought they had better not take too high a flight for a start for fear thev might come in contact with the new build- ings in course of erection at Gen- eral Motors, so they circled around till they had covered '84 miles and then they decided to descend. Cen- tre street pilot and crew tried their airship Canadian Boy with a few spins; they realize they have a splendid aviation course and with 30 miles to their credit they intend to fly high and far. Albert street pilot and crew with the Spirit of St. Louis believe that WE «can outdis- tance the other 7 planes in height and distance; they just took out their plane for a short trial trip of 34 miles and they said the gliding was splendid. Cedardale is near the Lake and has a wide course to cover, and their pilot is overhauling the plane, I"alcon. He is very care- ful in choosing his engineer and crew before taking the air. Simeone street South pilot with his aircraft, America, says it's going to he some job piloting his plane as they are overcrowded, and some of the fel- so that there will be some danrer of colliding with the plane, Canadian Boy. King street pilot and crew with Old Glory are going to soar high and manoeuvre the helicopter, Ritson Road pilot and crew with their aircraft, The Beaver, will cov- er the East end of the city and will do some nose dives. QUEBEC FINDS LIOUOR IPMORT TAX SUCCESS Montreal, Que., Nov, 13-- Private importation of liquors, a matter on which the Dominion Government has offered to legislate to aid Gov- ernment control provinees, is no problem for Quebec. The Tascher- eau Government has merely throt- tled private importation by making it practically prohibitive. Every in- dividual importing liquor has to pay 40 per cent on the purchase price, and that amount goes to the Ligunr Commission as profits, this on top of the Federal duty. Nevertheless, the powers of the Quebec Government in this regard are questioned. The Government holds that the Quebec Liquor Act constitutes its sole legal import of liquor. A number of lawyers say the Government is out of its depth. Nohody, however, has found the point so important that he has tes- ted the law before the courts. Mean- while the Taschereau Government stands pat. The desire for private importa- tions, too, it not great, Several years ago, connoisseurs could not find their favorite brands on the Gov- ernment sale list. That list has been widened, it appears, sufficient- ly to satisfy the drinking Quebec- ers and no complaints have been received from tourists, An American woman has been di- vorced seven times. She is getting through life by decrees.--The Passing Show. lows are away up at Centre street | VICAR TO ATTEMST SWIMMING CHANNEL Rev.
