It Will be a Great Match. pilay limmins â€" nere commencing at 5:15 p final match for the F winner of this gam Foster Cup. A lhivel final match for the Foster Cup. ue winner of this game mwill win the Foster Cup. A lively and interesting match is assured, as both teams are out to win, and both teams are good sports and . good football players. The rivalry is keen, of course, but it is very friendly. Kirkland Lake has won much praise by its fine foothall and good sportsmanship this year. This year‘s Kirkland Lake team is a strikinely creditable one, and they appear to keep getting better right along. ‘On the other hand the Lake boys recognize that in Timmins they have ‘‘a foeman â€" worthy of their steel,"" and that they will have, to travel some to win from Timmins. In the for the FPoster Cup North Bay defaulted the match with Kirkland Lake scheduled for Labour Day at the Bay. At first it was thought that the default was on the part of Kirkland, but a telegram from the North Bay secretary shows that it was North Bay that droppea out. The Bay apparently has nad its own ditficulties in keeping the team together â€" during the holiday months andâ€" gettingâ€"â€" their regular team together â€" during the holiday months andâ€" getting their regular players to meet outside engagements. Kirkland Lake naturally asked asâ€" surance that the Bay would further outside engagements. that might arise in the cup schedule if the Kirkland team went to the Bay Laâ€" bour Day. (iPerhaps, it was the fact that the Bgy felt it cou‘d not give such assurance under the conditions that prompted ‘the default as the fairâ€" est way to all} concerned. In any event the game was dropped, and the finals thus left between Kirkland and event the game was dropped, and Ine finals thus left between Kirkland and Timmins. At Kirkland Lake last week in the Goodyear Cup series Kirkland Lake won from Timmins with a score of 4 to 2. The game was an unusually good one, and Kirkland Lake footâ€" ballers after the game suggested that a tie score would really have better shown the play of the day between the twoâ€" teams. Onâ€" Saturday this week Timmins expects to retrieve itâ€" self, and thus win the Foster Cup. HIGH SCHOOL T0 OPEN NEXT WEEK 1N KING‘5 AALL Three Excellent Classrooms and Other Accommodation.
