Laidlaw. of Timmins. were joint hostesses at a tea 'held in the new community hall at the Buffalo-Ankerite property on Saturday afternoon. About one hundred and fifty guests from Timmins. Schumacher. South Porcupine and the out-lying dist- rict were present at the tea. During the afternoon the Buffalo-Ankerite orches- tra played many pleasing selections in the hall which was very beautifully dec- orated for the occasion. The colour scheme was of green and yellow. with pines and Chrysanthemums giving the final touch to the setting. The guests were seated at small tables. while in the middle of the hall. one long tea table bearing the lunch and with a centre piece of a huge bouquet of gold and yellow mums. was set. Tall candles threw their flickering lights on the gathering. giving a cosy touch to the general appearance. Mrs. C. G. Kemsley. of the Dome. and Mrs. F. C. H. Simms. of Timmins. presided at the tea table. They were assisted by Mrs. Leslie Walker, Mrs. Purdon. Mrs. A. R. Kinkel. When Supt.

The buck swam about a mile and a half off shore and evaded all attempt of the lifesavers to lasso him. It was feared the animal. while showing re- markable stamina, would expire from exposure. After many fruitless attempts at lasâ€" soing the deer. lifesavers changed their ' tactics and tried to force the animal to swim towards shore. The deer proved to be a real battler with a heart as stout as they make] them. Finally driven to shore he raced' down the sandy beach to a ten-foot fence and with a terrific lunge tried' to clear it. Falling backwards he lay‘ Laj What; to do with Mr. Deer was the next, problem. But fox the present; it was expected he will find a temporary home in the High Park Zoo. the waterfront cheered the deer his gameness. struggling on the ground. dazed and hurt. As horns honked and people screamed and lifesavers ran to throw ropes around him he finally charged into Lhc lake again and started once into Lhc lake again and started once more to swim away with the lifesaveis in pursuit. This time. however. he was captured. High Park zoo caretakers dec ared 1he deer had not escaped from there. Mrs. R. P. Kinkel and Mrs. H. G.

President Jeremiah Mahoney. and to the Union condemning the omission of Germany from the itineraries of two US. track and field teams which barnstormed Europe last year. It was understood that the letters were instigated by the Ital- ian member of the I.A.A.F‘. Fascist Italy is a close ally of Nazi Germany. Mahoney. who bitterly opposed send- ing a US. team to Berlin for the 1936 Olympics. and later succeeded Avery T. Brundage of Chicago as president of the A.A.U.. is the Democratic can- didate for mayor of New York City. Ekelund's letter was said to have pro- tested “mixing politics with sports".
