fi It was a hard fqught battle howâ€" cver, and at any time thee sethm: fifght Lave gone the other way. The 19 in 5 score just about indicated the play during the game. Both teams fought hard and tightened up whenâ€" ever the other got any place near the gos‘ line. Sudbury I believe bad a slight edge on the play especially € gn the ground c‘fensive as they made thiwisen first dQowns to our five. Timmins made most of their yards on‘ forward passes as trusty Jock Pelec threw them to completion sir times. f Sudbury ist Quarterâ€"Timmins Z2nd _ Sudbury managed to keep the ball most o the first quarter as Albert Poutanen and Sy! O‘Hara ran throug‘ the centre for gains of anywhere Sfrom five to ten yards till Poutanen managed ts run it around the end for five points.. The _convert was blocked. Incidentally that was one . Timmins tried earnestly to get ~ akhead and almost did several times, however they were just not able to . get going when they had to. «dn all, it was the best game of the season. Sudbury‘s blocking was specâ€" tacular while Timmins, although ‘less showy. was just as effective. Timmins‘ line played the best game all year with Brillinger, Lochrie, Mcâ€" Kee and Peterson standing <out. In the Timmins backfield Johnson and Scullino were outstanding in th)eir buckinz and runningâ€"around the ends, whil> Belec and Charrette were notâ€" able for their passing and receiving. of the first kicks that Timmins has blocked this year, so that one can geasily see. how the team must have improved. Bob Charrette made the best run back of the game follocwing the touch down as he plunged and spinned iwenty five yard; through Sudbury Timmins lost the ball as Sudbury intercepted a Timmins pass. However a few minutes later Jock Belec did the same to a Sudbury pass, and after an exchange of Timâ€" mins started an aerial offensive that tock them over the Sudbury goal line. The first was a thirty yard pass to Dukeshire, the second a completed pass on an interference call, and finâ€" ally the winning pass as Belec fired a fifteenâ€"yard pass to Scullino who ran it for seven yarls to place it over the Sudbury line. This time Sudbury bliscked Timmins‘ convert. That tied u pthe score at five all. _A seeâ€"saw battle followed in which Timmins made one notable playâ€" that a pass from Belec to Charrette who lateralled it tb Scullino who ran it‘ for a few additional yards. Garth Brillinger also managed to recover a Sudbury fumble in one of the pile ups that followed. Late in the third quarter Timmins male a couple of.bad punts and Sudâ€" bury landed up on the Timmins six yard line. The start of the fourth duarter saw Timmins stop Sudbury once but the second time Chamara plunged through the centre to end the scoring for the day. 5 The whole of Timmins team should be congratulated for their splengdid eflort UWIt was a good clean game with goocl sportsmanship predominating at all times. No players were injured and after the game the Sudbury Captain told Tammins Captain Jack Molee that Timmins was the best. team that Sudâ€" bury had ever run up against. Statisâ€" tics show this also as Syudbury . had an average of twentyâ€"one points per game as opposed to three and a half gcored against them. Vell much as we hate to admit it Gu+y High Sch:ol is the possessor tre Foupore Sup and the Nossa efor 1947 Timmins had a rally Friday nigh« for the boys and after the game urday a dance. The spokesman of the Sudbury team stated that they had done a lot of travelling this year and hat they had a better reception and time from students and people of Timimnins~ than any +other place they had visited. $ As far as Timmins is concerned Sudbury is about the fine:t visiting te:m, thkat has come to Timmins and alth:ush we lost a game we won more impogrtant than ten gamesâ€"good fellowship. Good fe}â€" lewship between Sudbury and Timâ€" mins may not seem much to residents w $uch a fellowship could be created outside of these two ccmmunities but throughout all communities in Canâ€" ada and a‘l through the countries ol the woâ€"ld,â€"we would have a much Happenings At T. H. V. S. icX _10j Loyvnqw N | as we hate to admit it i Sch:ol is the possessor re Jup and the Nossa 1ard fquight battle howâ€" t any time these setmi one the other way. The just about indicated the the game. Both teams and tightened up whenâ€" ier gyot any place near . Sudbury I believe had » on the play especially A4 ¢e‘"feanscive as they madso better world in which to live! , Pre Game Rally a Success .. The instigators of the pre game rally had only one rpose in mind when they first planned the rallyâ€" that was publicityâ€"more publicity, more tickets sold. C ntrary to some reports the ra‘"‘y was a fairly well organized affair with no great amount of commotion is suggested by some sources. On thie whle the of Timinins stuâ€" dents is commendable. Students when told to break up. their rally because of icy streets did so with only a little commotion and prcceeded in an orâ€" derly manner to the Sea Cadet Barâ€" racks. The High School was to be the scene of a monster rally planned by t‘he Timmins rugby team. The stuâ€" dents turned out and a sing song was held as planned. Schcol songs and yel‘s rented the air. However when the burning of the effigie was to cause of other little fires lit by soms take place, firemen prohibited it beâ€" one unknown. ~Realizing that the firemen were correct the parad2 moved cff without waiting for the police escort. This unfortunately resulted in the breakup of the rally about three blocks up Kent from the high school. This was the â€"only misâ€" take the students made. The students then went on to the barracks where they hung their effiâ€" gie to the enjoyment of the crowd. Sudbury players were introduced and every one had a good time. Conseâ€" quently things did nct go off too badly. We got our publicity and the students had their rally. Sadie Hawkins Day Rapidly Approaching Yes friendsâ€"and by friends I must refer to my fellow bachelors, the dreaded day is fast approaching for Saturday, November 19th is Sadie Hawkins day. However things just don‘t seem rightâ€"maybe there has been [ /A change in custcm lately, although Dogpatch seems to hold it as ever. Boys seem to be welcoming the afâ€" fair rather than waiting for the day with dreadful uncertainty. (Althoug‘i come to think of it socme are lookâ€" ing forward to it with uncertainty). I guess. we men have become too domesticated or some such thing for boys can be seen and heard going around trying to get asked to the Gala affair this Saturday night at the High School. I don‘t know why you are worrying, stags are allowedâ€"in fact, due to the shyness cf the Timâ€" mins, High girls they are being enâ€" couraged. Things must have changed for boys no longer dread the event, and girls do not have that driving determination that Dogpatch girls seem to have. Oh well never mind â€"just plan to attend the dance this Saturday at the High schoolâ€"time eight o’\clockâ€"-fun, dancing and prizes for .all. Don‘t forget that it is hard times! â€" Have a good time and §11Pâ€"~ port your school. Timmins High and Vocational Choir and Orchestra Christmas Timmins High and Vocational wil} once more present their Christmas concert this year. On December the fifth, at the MciIintyre Arena the choir and crchestra along with inâ€" strumental and vocal solos all under the very capabl2 direction of Mr. E. Bartlette will take to the stage to entertain the music lovers of the Pcrcupine area.

They may be obtained at present from any member of the Choir or orchesâ€" Reserved seats will be seventy five cents ach, adults ‘fifty and stuâ€" dents twentyâ€"five. Be sure to get yours immediately. Gossip This isn‘t gossip but I wanted to put it where I would be sure that most peopel will be qire to see it <Here I would like to remind you of : rather quiet fellow that you don‘t hear so much about. He is the Coach of the Timmins Rugby team, Mr. Clark. He is the one responsible for your team‘s success this year. I don‘t know what I can say about him that every rugby player or basket ball player, or as far as that goes anybody that ‘has anything to do with Mr. Clark will nct say. He entered THV.S. when things were pretty rugged. He has built up the rugby teams and schoo}l spirit to its highest degree since the war and I think he 2L aAsedd ha annaratulat+aA and thanked Most say tlNhat TNnCY they could walk to school the ‘perâ€" son that has asked Junior to the Sadie Hawkins day Dance. It didn‘t take Bert long to put his eye on very lovely Miss Charlebois, did it? By the way we would like to welcome to Timmins Bert Laymen from Noranda. Hope you enjdy yourâ€" self, Bert. q # What can we say about the situâ€" ation between Pat ‘Campbell and Rarry Brewerâ€"they look pretty good together in any case. Something dreadful happened to Bat Beattieâ€"she lost her voicee. That‘s tco bad Pat I hope it soon gets betâ€" ter. I imagine it must be terrible. Well that‘s it for this week folksâ€" be good, see. you â€" next weekâ€"good night. Sports (.‘301-';1;\‘ The way things are shaping"up in the local senior group at the present Whern everything started to move in in a trafficâ€"jam in New York ‘City. up tighter than a tenâ€"ton truck caught the senior league, a few days ago, it looked as though the Porkies and Combines were going to have things their own way, for a while at least. The Juniors had romped with eas> to the Lions Club Cup but then hit a snag in the form of a gang of Eskiâ€" moes from Iroquois Falls. The Porâ€" kies, on the other hand, had little trcuble with theâ€" Hollyites in their opener but then ‘ they, too, were stopped by the Eskies.. After those two tilts, which had all tongues wagging, the Falls began to look like the class for the year. The Macmen, meanwhkte, have been lounging hround in the cellar after two straight setbacks, but they suddenly decide that they don‘t like the environment and want to do something to change things. The most thing to do is trim the Eskimoes as they have yet to taste defeat, sc the Macs do just that, and to a bitter shutâ€"out tune at that. How does that leave things now? Wel, just about like the trafâ€" fic jam we spoke of earlier. <The ‘standing. not counting last night‘s tilt as this was written earlier, goes something like this: Falls and Porkies have each won a pair and lost a sing‘»ton, Hollinger has â€"a win and a loss and the Juniors and Macmen have one game on the credit side and a pair on the debit. Things couldn‘t be any more complicated, could thev. time, the standing is going to be tied â€" There will be carols of this country and others along with the solos of various members of the choir and erchestra.* This will be one of the musical events of the season so get your tickets while you can. They may be obtained at present from any member of the Choir or orchesâ€" tra. Reserved seats will be seventy five cents ach, adults ‘fifty and stuâ€" dents twentyâ€"five.

So on behalf of the students and esâ€" peciglly the rugby team I â€" would The new Hospital for Sick Children, nearing completion on University Ave., south of College St , in Tororito, wil be ono of the modern on the continent when it opens its doors next July., We must ncot forget at this tims our most excellent trainer who was like to say thanks a lot, Sir. a one time one of our star players, Omar *Carbinneauâ€"known to the rugby team as the fellow that took Marla out without Joe knowing it till he arrived at the dance. Speaking of Joe Scullino we hear that he and Evelynâ€" MacKelwee are getting along quite well togetherâ€" in fact one might say very well. Bob Charrette tells me that it was pirrtty iJjippery coming horts last Saturday night. Coming homeâ€"Is that right Mary Gibson? They tell me that Ernie, Tait is seriously thinking of moving up on the hill just so he can accompany Junior Pare to school just so Junior can‘t accompany Terry part way to school. Think it cver Ernie it‘s a rash move. Most fellows say that they wish they could walk to school the ‘perâ€" son that has asked Junior to the Sadie Hawkins day Dance. It didn‘t take Bert long to put his eye on very lovely Miss Charlebois, did it? By the way we would like to welcome to Timmins Bert Laymen from Noranda. Hope you enjdy yourâ€" self, Bert. What can we say about the situâ€" ation between Pat ‘Campbell and Rarry Brewerâ€"they look pretty good together in any case. Something dreadful happened to Bat Beattieâ€"she lost her voicee. That‘s tco bad Pat I hope it soon gets betâ€" ter. I imagine it must be terrible. That little greyâ€"haired fellow that you have been seeing around the McIntyre and South End Arenas last week is none other than Squib Walâ€" ker, head scout for the Leafs. Squib spent most of the week here and hoped to get the jump on the other pro clubs this year by being the first to see the 49â€"50 editions of the Juviâ€" nile clubs. ‘Although he didn‘t: comâ€" mit himself, it‘ was the general opinâ€" â€" ion that he had his talentâ€"catchinsg eyes on Ron Walace of the Schuâ€" macher Lions and Murray Costelio of the South End Tee Pees. The Leafs have been after Wallace for the past couple of years and this is no exception as the Larky Schum2â€" cherâ€"youth looks better every time out. Ron was on the Leaf list a few years ago and was later dropped to make room for others but the Leafs have since realized their mistake. As Yor Costello, Walker cculdn‘t even to‘k to him as he is not yet 16 but chat couldn‘t keep the Leaf: ivory nunte; from mking and longing, and 4 ic" gave him ‘someâ€" went out and got himâ€" self 4 goals against Schumachner the ~ther night aud that is no small task for a blueliner. The Costello houseâ€" hold is going to be a busy place next February when Murray turns 16 as the scouts will be as thick as flies trying to get him to sign. It is doubtful that the Leafs will get him though as when more than one club bids for a player at the same time, the NH.L. club that ended up the lowest in the standing preâ€" vious year gets the younsgter. That certainly doesn‘t leok very good for the Leafs, does it. In any case, the kid is headed for stardom and can‘t be stopped. ICE CHIPS:; One felow that won‘t forget the recerit N.O.M.A. meeting at North Bay is George Stanutz, last year with the Timmins Lions. Stanâ€" utz has been going to St. Mikes in Toronto since the fall and was set to play hockey with them but the Combines refused to grant a reâ€" lease. The meeting changed ‘all that though and now when a kid is too old for Juvenile he can go to the Junior team of his choice. Stanutz didn‘t waste any time getting into a +. Mike‘s uniform after that word came through and has been looking real good ever since . . . Boyd Prenâ€" tice will be out of action for a month or so after a collision with Jean Beâ€" lisle of the Falls. The South End basher wrenched his knee badly when he checked the ‘Rock of Gibâ€" raltar‘ last week . . . Joe â€" Sullivan,, McIntyre‘s spare| catcher during the past ball season, has again turned up with the Walkerâ€" ton Ironfiremen, a Senior B. Club in the O.H.A., and according to reports of a recent game which they played in the Soo, Sullivan 4s one of their ‘defence .stalwarts . . . Speaking of the Soo, the Porkies, were scheduled to make the trip up there this weekâ€" end but it was called off. Had they gone, the Porkies would have flown from Porquois, with the Soc footing the entire bill Think of the crowds they must be getting to be able to fly clubs in for exhibition tilts . . . Bummer Doran has been absent from the Porkies lineâ€"up for the last few games because of an. attack of the flu. Don‘t think for a minute the South Enders haven‘t missed him t0o0. This boy refused to pose unless his pand2a got into the picture, too. Playâ€" ing with the toys at the Hospital for Sick Children prevents the young patients from becoming homesick. 3 n PR * tove._ S _ There isn‘t one who didn‘t feel reâ€" pret at the passing of our Grand ol Man of Branch ‘88‘, Past President, President for many years and organâ€" izer of this Branch and always an ardent woriker for the Branch Poopy Funi on which he worked almost to the last and ‘if he had had the power to, choose he :could not have chosen a more fimng day, Rememâ€" brance Day, Nov. li1th.
