MciIntyre Redmen won the right to represent the Porcupine and Kirkland camps in the Dominion Cup playâ€"downs on Saturday by virtue of a 4â€"1 win ovâ€" ver Lake Shore in the last of a two game series. ‘The first contest was held in Kirkland Lake a week ago. The Redmen won that as well as yesterâ€" day‘s game at the McIntyre stadium. The playâ€"downs will be continued here this week when the McIintyre meets Falconbridge in a two game serâ€" iesâ€"the first to be played on Tuesday and the second, also at the McIntyre stadium, on THursday.

In the first game a week ago the Macmen won two goals to nothing. Their four to one win on yesterday pave them a round by six goals to one. Rodgers and Herny Lone ran in and booted a cross shot into the goal. Finâ€" al tally was scored by Reggie Dunstan from a scramble in front of the goal. Playing the soccer they did on Satâ€" urday, the Macmen should do more than cause Falconbridge trouble on Tuesday and Thursday . afternoons. They bid fair to win the series, Mcâ€" Intyre officails are confident that their eleven is on the championship trail, The Shoremen held the Mcintyre fairly well in the first half of the game but in the second half they were far outdistanced by the fleetâ€"footed McIntyre forwards, who played in a style calculated to give their supportâ€" ers plenty.of hope for them in future playâ€"down tilts. The game was clean as well as fast. Referee Dick Mitchell was given little to do and although rivâ€" alry between both teams was hot there was little to complain of in the matter of rough Reynolds, Lake Shore forward, injured his ribs in an accidâ€" ental contact but he gamely finished the game in position. McCessock got a badly banged ankle but he also was able to continue. The Macmen got one wally in the first half of the game and scored the other three during the last half. Kipkâ€" land goal came just after . the second session opened, Bain counted for the locals in the first half on a solo effort. ‘ He carried the tkall down the field and singleâ€" handed bootéd it past the Shore goalâ€" ie for the first. The Macmen had the edge on the play even in the first half but they were unable to organize forces well enough to get more than the one tally,. Outscores Kirkland Team Four to One to Win Round By Five Goals on Saturday gh Murphy w @ c By Hu Recently the anniversary of the seâ€" cond year of the Sinoâ€"Japanese war was celebrated. Going into the third year of conflict Japan is still staying to her course to bring all China under her domination. In a message to his people General Chiang Kaiâ€"Shek, . of the Chinese army, maintained that Japan was beâ€" ing steadily weakened and that China‘s strength was growing daily, He figâ€" ured Japanese casualties in China at 1,000,000, some 940,000 more than are admitted by the Japanese, First Half of Deciding Game Fairly Even But Redmen Attack in Last Half Breaks Down Shore Defence.

Chancellor Hitler has become a man without a name. He is to be known as "The Leader." He will sign his name that way and all newspapers and documents and speakers must refer to him by the two words, Official exâ€" planation for the change::; "The title of being Chancellor gave Hitler an air of being a functionary or a politician, whereas he is the beloved leader of his people." China, this summer, it is said, will concentrate more than ever on aerial warfare,. New planes are expected daily from the United States and a new crop of filyers, trained in South China, will be brought to the front. Real reason is thought to be another step in the process of the deification of The Feuhrer, A recent decree in Gerâ€" many was that all Nazis except Adolf Hitler, are to be addressed in party and political meetings as "Parteigeâ€" nosse"‘ or ‘"Party Comrade." Thus Goering and Goebbels will be known simply as party comrades Hitler on the other hand, was to be known as Mein Feuhrer. Last week however that title was further shortened to The Leader. , Describing the probable attitude of Spain in the event of a European watr, Generalissimo Franco, in a recent inâ€" terview, said that Spain is neither German nor Italian and would endeaâ€" vour to remain neutral if its interests and honour were not affected. Referring to the Danzig issue, he said: "Danzig is not worth a general conflagration as Poland will always lose, either with an allies‘ victory owâ€" ing <to future Russian claims against her or with an Axis victory when it will be annihilated." "Send the wagon; there‘s a disturâ€" bance outside the employment office at Broughton and Langley street," said an excited voice recently over the tele.â€" phone to a Victoria, B.C., police serâ€" geant. When the call was answered police found three kilted Vancouver pipers tuning up their pipes before joining the Victoria longshoremen‘s picnic. Only a war can prevent a general election this fall according to reports from Ottawa. The Liberal Party is expected to lose a good many seats and the Conservatives hope to make large gains. And then there is the C. C. F. to consider. There is some talk of a Nationalist party but it is not taken very seriously, The C.CF. would, of course like to see that come about as it would mean that it would be the official oppopsition. It is said that J. S. Woodsworth will reâ€" sign from the leadership of the C. C. FP,. and that his place will be taken by M. J. Coldwell, one time Regina school teacher. Mr. Coldwell is supposed to be the outstanding man in the party. St. Mary‘s Journalâ€"Argus:â€"Visitorâ€" "What nice buttons you are sewing on your little boy‘s suit!

Some Interesting N otes About Denizens of Woods and Water. (By W. MacMillan, in Forest and Outâ€" doors.) The difference in the ages that anâ€" imals attain readily excites our interâ€" est. While some hold the theory that size has something to do with long life, others declare just as confidently that it Ihmas direct relation to the time animals require to mature., Nature‘s pilan is carefully and accurately adâ€" justed. And if nothing occurs to disâ€" turb this balance it is possible for some animals to attain astonishing ages. Somebody with a penchant for that sort of thing has established a list showing the average ages attained by the different animals we know of. At fifteen years, for instance, there is the fox., pig cat. At twenty, the hippoâ€" potamus, rhinoceros, wolf and bear. At twentyâ€"five, the horse, hyena, leopâ€" ard, tiger and cheeta. What Animals Live. co Great Ages? And Why? Whales undoubtedly are less reâ€" stricted in their movements than most mammals and may live two hundred years and more. Some claim they might live to be a thousand but no satâ€" isfactory proof has been advanced. Changes come so slowly in the depth of the sea it is only reasonable to supâ€" pose that some of the undersea dwelâ€" lers live to ripe old*ages. Down there, at depths of from five to six miles, where the pressure is somewhat like fifteen thousand pounds to the square inch of body surface, some extraordâ€" inary looking creature some of them hoary with age, grope their way along the dimly lit lanes. Most of them oddly enough carry their own electric lights with them. Some have broad sheets of light on their pallied bodies; others have what appear to be lighted portholes all along their sides. Lasiognathus, the Anglier fish, has a jointed stem of cartilage projecting from his forehead. Attached to the free end of this stem are three bony hooks, and besides each of these is a luminous spot that glimmers and glews in the darkness. Nowbody knows exâ€" actly what age these amazing fish atâ€" tain. If we were permitted by means, say of some underwater telescope to spy on the grotesque creatures streaming in the glow of their own lanterns we would probably assume that all these were for the purpose of finding their way. Nothing could be further from the truth. Some of the lights, true are used for this purpose, but others are there to attract their prey, while still® others are used to arouse the curiosity of roving mates. One cannot leave the depths of the sea and their terrific pressures withâ€" out first passing in swift review those extraordinary creatures that, equipped with swimâ€"bladders, make the stygian depths their home. So lonz as these fishes remain in their natural environâ€" men they have nothing to fear. But should they venture too far and too fast surfacewards, where the pressure is less, the gas in their delicately 24â€" justed swim bladders expands faster then the blood@ can absorb it. The bladâ€" der swells, lifting its owner nearer and nearer to the surface till it finally bursts into a thousand pisces. Sudbury Star:â€"Milk drinking, says a doctor, improves the eyesight.

To see Binnie as sosphisticated and as smartly dressed off the scereen as cn it, it is almost impossible to realise that she was born in the Caledonian Market, »the daughter of a policseman. As can be imagined her struggle to the top has not en an easy one.Hér earliest ambiticn was to become a nurse â€"i warm heart beats beneath that cold ext2rior reallyâ€" but after a few months she found she could not bear the sight ocf pain and suffering.

Then she partnered. Tex MclLoed, the rope spinner, in his act and toured South Africa. â€"A year later she launched a rope act of her own under the name of "Texas Binnie". In 1929 she got her first small part in a "straight" play, "Silver Tassies," with Charles Laughton. After this she apâ€" peared in a series of films, and in a cabaret until her first big break as Fanâ€" ny in ‘"Cavalcade" at Drury Lane.

Conn Lifts Light Heavy Title From Bettina Thursday Wins Decision After Fifteen Rounds. Used Left Jiab for Points. The Beaconites came down in a speâ€" cial train with two bands to support their squat, dark idolâ€"but the judges voted unamincusy for Conn at the close of a hard 15 rounds. New York, July 15â€"There was neithâ€" er joy nor band music in Beacon, N.Y. on Friday, for Melio Bettina blew his light heavyweight title to Billy Conn, the Pittsaurg Kid, on Thursday night in Madison Square Gardens. The Pittsburgher whittled his way to victory with a left jab, after taking a sound beating for the first five rounds That is, he did in the opinion of the three judges who collectively voted Betâ€" tina only 7 rounds against 8 for the slim boy from the west. The Associated Press scored the thing dead evenâ€"seven rounds for each fightâ€" er and one round even. By that tabuâ€" lation, Melio would have retained the crown. Melio who had been badly underratâ€" ed, came out of the scrap crying bitâ€" terly. His manager, Jimmy Grippo, was raving about having been denied "Impartial officials‘". Earlier he had asked that only one of the officials be of Irish descent, and he evidently though they had run in an extra Irish on him. But whoever was right about the scoring (and after all, the three men whose opinions counted were unaminâ€" ous), it was a good fightâ€"good enough for a return in the opinion of 15,295 who paid to see it. Bettina, crammed to the ears with "nostâ€"hypnosis,‘"‘ applied by his versaâ€" tile manager, Grippo, started out to give his puzzled opponent a real pastâ€" ing. For four of the first five rounds Conn looked as if he never had heard of a southpaw ‘before, and Bettina whanged him almost at will with a loft that hurt. But when Conn began to catch on and. started dancing and cirecling to his left and flicking Melio with a long left, it was Melio‘s turn to be puzzled. For the next four rounds he could only shake his head and look aggrieved, like a crow being poked with a broomstick. But suddenly he came to life again, and the last six rounds were a dogâ€"fight Melio closed in and slugged again, rocking Conn several times and openâ€" inz a cut under the handsome kid‘s right eye. Now and then Billy slugâ€" gred right back and once a right nearâ€" ly dropped Bettina., The qualifying round of the Ladies‘ Golif Competition was postponed on Friâ€" day due to the unfavourable weather and the members ‘who were present at the golf Club enjoyed an afternoon of cards, tea being served later in the day.

Considerable levelling has been done, and it is claimed now that no spot is half ai incti 1lower than any Oother section of the rink. It is confidently believed the new surface will make it possible to make ice much earlier next season. It is claimed two inches of water will make agood ice surface on the new floor. House of David Wins by Run After Seven Inning Contest Real test for the House of David team, so far as this camp was conâ€" cerned, was on Saturday night when the bewhiskered ball players met Timâ€" mins, camp league leaders. Final score of the seven inning match was 2 to 1â€" for the House of David. Senese, South Porcupine hurler, took over the mound for the local nine on Saturday night. He allowed six hits for two runs.
