' Iecst out at Toronto by one goal in the ‘ound in the Memcrial Cup playdowns. The story is told in these words by one espatch from Toronto on Monday |night:â€"-"Playing as if inspired, Sault gcoal Ste. Marie Greyhounds, monarchs of the Northern Ontario Hockey Associaâ€" tion and the finest collection of playâ€" ers, senior or junior to come out of the North country in years, defeated the Cataracts, 4 to 3, in the second game of their twoâ€"game series But they lost the first game played here Saturâ€" day, 5 to 3, and the courageous Norâ€" therners, passed out of the 1930â€"31 hocâ€" key picture by the slim deficit of one Norkern Juniors: Lose Out on Round Sault Greyhounds Win Second Game but Fail by one Goal on the Round.

Mr. Needham was forced through injury and illness to return ‘least and enter hospital, but the trip ‘was not abandoned. He had with him ‘cn the motor trip the wellâ€"known oldâ€" timer cof the North, Gus forâ€" merly mayor of Hearst, and as The Adâ€" vance pointed out Gus McManus; was not the kind to turn back fron any trip just because there were a faow diffiâ€" culties in the way. It was generally 'beheved that Mr. McManus would carry !‘ on and complete the trip, and this proves to be the case. From the maker;i > the automobile used on the trip the following official information has been| received this week by The Advance:â€" . "Delayed by unrfavourable weather.| ‘the Transâ€"Canada auto, Novaâ€"Columâ€"| bia, is about to resume its journey, the ; next stage being down the 72 miles of| snow and ice from the to;: of Lake | Nipigon to a pcint near Cameron Falls. Gus McManus will be in charge of the car when it starts the perilous dashj grercss the ice of Lake Nipigon. He receontly took over the Transâ€"Canada vyenture when injuries forced Healy Needham to return to Montreal for| treatment. In preparation for the i heavy going through snow and ice, McManus has equipped his McLaughâ€" linâ€"Buick roadster with skis and has lowered the top so that the driver ma.yi< have a chance of quick escap» if the ; auto strikes an air hole in the ice.| He rilans to begin the dangerous crossâ€"! ing of Nipigon at anytime, and hopes to accomplish this most hazardous part of the long journey across the North country before milder weather sets in."

The popularity of trese events can be judged from the large number present on this occasion. The winners for the whist were as folâ€" lows:â€"first, Mrs. James; second, Mrs. Wm. Wilkinson; gentlemen, first, Mr. Tcoping; second, Mr. Byrom. After ' the whist drive refreshments were servâ€" ed. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing, games and competiâ€" tions. Mrs. R. Webber sang very effecâ€" tively, "Where my Caravan has Restâ€" eau." This number was very heartily ensored and Mrs. Webber responded with another pleasing number. Mrs. T. Rickards supplied the music for the evening. The Lancashire Club will hold another whist drive and social on Thursday evening of next week, March 26th, at 8 pm. sharp. Everybody welâ€" come. LANCASHIRE WHIST DRIVES * ARE PROVING VERY POPULAR After the game there was a very pleasing banquet tendered the visitors, the event being held at the Kirkland Lake Oddfellows hall and about sixty present. A very pleasant and interesting evening was enjoyed by all. A,. L, PTOUt, . HAUCKADOne, skir\â€"(10). Kirkland Lake:â€"G. Bowser, Dr. Mcâ€" Bain, R. Thompson, G. Gogett, skipâ€" (19),. lifted the T.

They 'were not successful in this but they did n s have good curling and a wonderful , time. The curlers speak in superlatives of the kindly hospitality of the Kirkâ€" :'land Lake curlers who were certainly great hosts and made the curlers from here feel that it was worth while to lose the trophy to good sports like the Kirkland curlers. W. H. Pritchard acâ€" cmpanied the two rinks to Kirkland Lake and made a hit as a chaperone. When the curlers left here it seemed certain that they would retun with the trophy again, as they aprizared so determined. Apparently the only one who can explain their failure to do so is Jos. McGrath who can give the only reasonable explanation of why the gamse was lost. The rinks and scores were as follows: Timmins:â€"L. Pare, J. Arscott, R. F. Francis, G. S.

There will be good prizes for the whist, also singing and dancing after the whist drive. There will be cigarâ€" ettes served to the gentlemen and chscolates for the ladies. Refreshâ€" ments will be served by the ladies‘ committee. A good time is assured to all, and everyone will be welcome. A ANOTHER WHIST DRIVE AND SOCIAL ON TUESDAY NEXT The above picture shows a scene in Porcupine twenty years ago. In view cf the recent discussion of the first building erected in Timmins it is timely. It was not, of course. the first buildirlig in Timmins but it was one of the original buildings at Golden City (Porcupine) before there was a Scuth Porcuryne let alon> Timmins. The picture was taken in 1911 after the building had attained som» age for this country. The smoke seen in the picture is from is from the disastrous fire of 1911‘ in the Porcupine district. TWEN TY YEARS AGO IN PORCUPINE TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MARCH 19TH, 1931 The bill wass before the House last spring, but was dropped when the genâ€" eral election was decided upon. It is in the form of an amendment to the Representation Act. According to a despatch from Ottawa this week a bill to extend the franchise to the District of Patricia, in Northern Ontario, was given a first reading in the House of Commons on Tuesday. Hon. Peter Heenan (Lib., Kenora), who introduced the measure, said between 500 and 600 men resided in that disâ€" trict. At ricesent the act provides that the ccuncil ‘of every town, township, city or vilags shall appoint as many inâ€" spectors as are necessary to enforce the provisions of the act, and that Lieuâ€" tenantâ€"Governorâ€"inâ€"Council "may" apâ€" point such inspectors for unorganized districts which have no municipal orâ€" ganization. TO EXTEND THE FRANCHISE TO DISTRICT OF PATRICIA Provision for the application of the Building Trades Protection Act in Norâ€" thern Ontario is contained in an amendment to the act which will alter the present clause of the act relating to unorganized districts. Despatches from Toronto on Monday say that greater protection for workâ€" men on construction work in the unorâ€" ganized districts of Northern Ontario and for men engaged in caisson and tunnel work in all parts of Ontario is contained in amendments to present labour legislation to be introduced this wesk by Hon. Pr.=J. D. Monteith;â€"Minâ€" ister of Labour. More Protection for Workers in the North Legislation Now Before the Ontario House Wil Have Effect on Workers in the North. Amendments to Present Acts. pine Mbante Therefore be it resolved that in the ofl.nion of this House, that all moneys voted for that purpose should be spent on a fiftyâ€"fifty basis, on the La Reineâ€" Cochraneâ€"Hearstâ€"Nakinaâ€"Sioux â€" Lookâ€" out section on the one hand and the Sault Ste. Marieâ€"Fort Williamâ€"Port Arâ€" thurâ€"Kenora section on the other." And whereas the necessity for the construction of two alternative routes is now well established ; And whereas, during last winter, that principle was being actually implementâ€" ed by the construction of some _of the links in Northern Ontario, out of the funds voted during the emergency sesâ€" sion to relieve unemployment; The following resolution will be movâ€" ed by Mr. Jossph Bradette, M.P. for Ncrth Temiskaminz, in the Houss of Commons: f "Whereas the need for the construcâ€" tion of a transâ€"Canada highway has been accepted by the Canadian people; Under ths: heading, "Right of Way, Please‘" The Northern Tribune, of Kaâ€" puskasing, lass week published the folâ€" lowing:â€" It is understood that New Liskeard is planning to come backy again, perhaps this week, after that Englehart cup. RESQLUTION ON TRANSâ€"CANADA BY MKR. J. A. BRADETTE MP After the curling a rreasing luncheon was tendered to the visitors and memâ€" bers of the local club. Timmins:â€"C. Abrams, A. W. Young W, Rinn, I. A. Solomon, skipâ€"(18). New Liskeard:â€"W. Nixon, V. Shave, F. Binkley, A. E. Stephenson, skipâ€" (13). Timmins:â€"J. Amm, S. R. McCoy, W King, G. §S. Drew, skipâ€"(17). New Liskeard:â€"Dr. McCullough, J McKinley, F. Goddard, R. Thompson skipâ€"(5). Appargntly the New Lisksard curlers are anxilous to secure the Englehart cup for they were back to Timmins at the weekâ€"end for anotheor try at liftâ€" inz the tropthy. The week previous two rinks from New Liskeard had been here and in a thrilling battle had made very strenuous effort to reâ€"capture the trophy and take it back with thom. The curling on March 7th between the Liskeard and Timmins rinks attracted a big gallery and the contest was folâ€" lowed with the keenest interest. When the sixteenth end was played the chalâ€" lengirg rinks were tied with the local curlers, and five extra ends were reâ€" quired to break the tie. On that ocâ€" casicn the Timmins curlers retained the trophy by the narrow margin of two, On Saturday night last, however, the Timmins rinks did not have so tight a fight and were able to hold their honours with less danger. The following were the rinks, scores etc.:â€" Two Rinks from Liskeard Here Again in Search cf the Englehart Curling Trophy, Cup Still Remains with Local Club.

J Carter was reâ€"elected president of the Kirkland Lake board cf trado last week. T. E. Bolton is viceâ€"presiâ€" dent. In his annual address Presidznt Carter took occasion to refer to the apâ€"~ parent lack of interest in the board by the ratepayers, especially by many of the business men. cab The complany contends that th cabs would not interfere with the ordinary business of four seater as they would be designed to anpeal to men and icr. As cach of these cabs would cost only $750 compared ay:>roximately with at least $2,000 for a full sized taxicab, and as the insurance and running cests are proporticonately lower, the company consvidering the operation of these cabs is hoping to run them at a fare of six pence ((approximately 12 conts) per mile or even less. When will there be a taxicab service in this country with "baby‘" autos in use? They are after this plan in the old country according to recent word from England. They are supposed to be slow coverseas but it is an odd fact that when they pick anything new they go as far, or farther, with it than on this side of the ocean. Diminutive taxicabs, accommodating two passenâ€" gers, is being sought by a Liverpool firm which desitmms to cperate diminutive cabs between that city and Manchesâ€" All are requested to have delegates present at this meeting, these including the Lake Shore, the Dome, the Cornish, the McIntyre, and the Sons of England football clubs. All interested in footâ€" ball are specially invited to attend the meeting and to give their assistance in this way to an auspicious commenceâ€" men‘t for football in the North for the coming season. ASKING FOR RIGHT TO RUN "BABY" TAXIS IN ENGLAND There is hope that two or three new teams will be added to the association this year. Efforts are being made to have the teams at Smooth Rock Falls and Kapuskasing placed in the assoâ€" cilation. All clubs affiliated with the N.O.F.A. during 1930 will be allowed two deleâ€" gates entitled to vote at this meeting. Clubs are also asked to have the necesâ€" sary affiliation fees for 1931. The annual general meeting of the Northern Ontario Football Association will be held on Saturday evening, «Marchâ€"28th, in the town hall, Timmins. The mesting is called for 7.30 pm. sharp, and it is desirable in the interâ€" ests of fostball in the North that the gathering ‘be as reptresentative and as large as possible. The greater the acâ€" tive interest now in football the better the chances for an unusually successâ€" ful season. It is hoped to make 1931 the biggest and best year yet in football in this area and to this end all interâ€" ested should attend the meeting on Saturday evening, March 28th.

The game was handled in an imparâ€" tial manner by Duval, an oldâ€"time hoâ€"â€" key player himself, and gave general satisfaction to the players as well as the fairly large crowd of spectators present. The teams were:â€"New Transferâ€" Colborne, goal; Larivee and Leblond, defence; A. Decarie and Ad Decarie, forwards; Barrette, centre; Lapalme and Gauthier, subs. The final game in a seriss of six gamses between teams reprrssenting the New Transfer and New Tin Shop was pl‘ayed on Tuesday and was won by the former team after a heactic battle which provided some gocd hocksy and lots of fun for the spectators The New Transfer came on the ice and immediâ€" ately took the offensive, scoring two goals within five minutes. The $ mainder of the prriod featured a perâ€" fect bombardment on both goalies, but neither team were able to tally again. In the second period both teams got away to a good start, and the New Tin Shop found their opponents‘ net early in the play, but despite desperate efforts were noxt able to even the score. In the third period the Transfer team again tallied, this making the final for the game.
