ALEXANDER PAIR FOVIN® GINITY BY WINNIPEF JURY Charged With Fraud and Conspiracy on 131 Counts Winnipeg, Jan, 18--W., T. and F. H. Alexander were found guilty yes- terday of charges of fraud and con- spiracy in connection with the Great West permanent Loan Company, the Imperial Canadian Trust Company and the Canadian National Fire In- surance Company. The jury return- ed a verdict of guilty on all of the 131 counts in the indictment. Sen- tence will be pronounced by Mr. Justice Kileonr tomorrow. Trial Started Nov. 13 Since the trial started on Nov. 13, Crown and defense counsel called 174 witnesses. The case went to the jury at 545 p.m, yesterday, and the jurv returned twice for instructions. Mr. Tustice Kilgour was asked to define the difference between "mak- ing" and "concurring in the making" of a false statement. His T.ordship explained that "making" implies that a person actually made, or caused to be made a false statement while "conenrrence" was the acaniescence in such action, knowing the state- ment to be false. William Thomas Alexander was Manzging Director of all three com- panies involved in the trial and also held the office of President of the trust company and the loan companv at different times. Frederick H. Alexander, his cousin, was Secretary of all three comnanies and a mem- ber of the three Boards of Directors.

Chicago is authorized under a per- mit separate from that, dealing with diversion of 8,500 cubic feet per second for sewage purposes to take a certain amount of water for industrial purposes. Not more than 2,000 cubic feet a second is supposed to be taken for this pur- pose.

Yesterday saw an- other increase in attendance which brought the total for the day near the 8,000 mark. Every day in fact has shown an increase in the box [Whitby high school and the Osha- office receipts over its predeces- sor, and it is expected that before the doors close for the last time tonight, the record for the year will be well over the 50,000 ob- jective. This morning was to be set aside for the benefit of the school child- ren of the city who were admitted for a nominal charge of five cents. The officials of the Motor Show believe that the children should be given a special opportunity to view what they deem an educa- tional display.

QUEEN'S BOXERS-WRESTLERS TO COMPETE AT OTTAWA Kingston, Jan 18.--Jack Jarvis and Jimmy Bews are taking their Queen's"® boxers and wrestlers to Ottawa today, and will have one of the strongest teams ever taken out of Kingston. Arrangements are being made for bouts here 1a Collegiate - Chatter The annual Bowmanville, Osha- wa and Whitby debating activities were opened Wednesday night last when the debating team of Miss Dorothy Crothers and George Campbell, representing the Osha- wa Collegiate, won the judges' de- cision over the Bowmanville high : school team of Miss Dorothy Al- "Emersonian." The "Torch" is a cleverly edited monthly and comes to us from the students of the Doylestown high school of Doyles- tow, Pa, The "Emersonian" is also a monthly paper published by the students of Emerson Institute, Washigton, D.C. We were sur- prised to learn that Miss Lillian Maule, a former pupil of the Osha- awa high school, is at present on the teaching staff of the Mmerson Institute and it was through Miss Maule that a. flattering article con- cerning a back number of the 0.C. I's magazine, "Acta Ludi," ap- en and Morgan Tunney. The top- ic in question was "Resolved that in the course of the next quarter century the Port of Vancouver is destined to outsrip that of Mont- real in importance"; the O.C.L team was victorious in upholding the Vancouver end of the argu- ment. Bowmanville is now elim- inated from the contest. Thus the second and final debate is between wa Collegiate. The topic will be announced in good time before the debate which will likely be held about the 20th of February. A fair audience of about 200 per- sons attended the debate and all were impressed with the excellent qualities of the speakers. The officials in charge were: 'Chair- man, Mr. McLeod, of the O.C.I. staff; judges, Miss Burwash, Mr. Sennett anda Mr, Hutchison, all of Whitby, and timekeeper Miss Al- lison also of Whitby. * % % Scalps on Their Belts The O.C.I. boys basketeers have now two scalps on their belts, both teams winning their opening games at Vaughan Road last Fri- day The Juniors won their game by a score of 29 to 13. The Senior tussle was a harder fought con- test resulting in a score of 10 to 8 in favor of the O.C.I. Although the senior game was only an exhi- bition encounter, winning the first game always helps to streng- then the morale of the team. * %* * On the Warpath Both teams again go on the war- path this Friday, playing the Scar- boro high school teams in the O. C.I. "gym." This is the tirst home geome and therefore the first chance the students have had to see their "Basketeers'" in action. The games are called for 4.15 sharp.

The slides were in conjunction with the Modern History course. The first set dealing with the Bourbon Dynasty presented views of those portions and cities of France concerned in the origin and life of that French Dynasty. Emphasized more, however, were views depicting the excessive wealth and extravagance of Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI, which at length brought destruction upon the Bourbon Court. The lecture in connection with these slides was very well read by Miss Flora McRoberts, a member of the class. * * * Life of Napoleon The second set entitled "France --The Empire," dealt singularly with the personal life of Napoleon Bonaparte and was interpreted in the same manner as the first by Donald Davidson, also a member of she class * * * Girls Improve The girls' senior basketball team" of the O.C.I. cannot boast as suc- cessful an opening game as can the boys' teams Last Friday on their own floor the O.C.I, girls lost to Vaughan Road by the one- sided seore of 48-17. However, after several good practices this week we expect to see a different score for their game at Secarboro today. * * LJ Schedule of Games The schedule for the girls' In- terscholastic Toronto uuu wistrict Basketball League is as follows: Jan. 18.--0.C.1. at Scarboro. Vaughan Road at East York. Jan. 25.--East York at O.C.L Scarborg at Vaughan kd February 1.--0.C.I. at Vaughan Rd. Scarboro at East York. Feb. 8.--S8carboro at O0.C.I. East York at Vaughan Road.
