Here is a list of the boys for any person that is willing to take hold and get the boys together at the Arena when there is practice; Art Crean, John McLean, “Curly” Lynett, Ralph Mackey, Herb Sharpless, Nelv son Graham. Ted Bennett, “Sunny” Kendall, Bill Savage, Jim Grainger, Lewis Sims, Alf Stong. This bunch of boys all have three and four more years in Junior Hockey and if they are coached and well managed will take their place on the regular team in years to come. How about it somebody, give the coming generation a opportunity to make good. Other towns smaller than Richmond Hill have good Junior and Juvenile teams and why can’t Richmond Hill? Don’t you think it is about time Richmond Hill is starting the younger “fry” into Hockey? There are plenty \The officers of the Richmond Hill Hockey Club Were all workedâ€"up on Monday night, when a wild rumor ‘was circulated concerning some local players. It sure was just a rumor though and maybe a nightmare, be- cause it certainly was a false alarm. 'It was reported around town that three members of the Local Hockey Club had signed certificates to play with a team in Toronto this winter and when one of the committee heard about it at eleven o’clock was all for calling a meeting at 12 o’clock that night. But it was adjourned when they found it was only a FALSE A- LARM, and the evening ended with another wild rumor “spiked.” Richmond Hill seem to have the ‘Hockey craze this winter and has en- tered the O. H. A. The local club is (grouped with Oshawa, Varsity II, Willowdale, and Newmarket. The ‘Richmond Hill aggregation promises to be the strongest team that has ever donned the green and white for many years, and they are picked to go along way before the season is over. Just as soon as there is ice on the Local Arena the boys will start their lpractices and are looking forward to the Whole hearted support of the town and district. The club is working hard to put Richmond Hill on the map in the hockey world and look to the public for support.

The mattâ€" Mr. Scutchins of Milliken, appeared before the council on a mission which he stated had been hanging fire for eighteen months. He was present regarding a ditch in the Milliken dis- trict the opening of which appears to be a, contentious matter and one which has been hanging fire for some time due to the inaction of certain interest. ed parties. It was the inaction and apparent disinterestedness of one par- ticular party that Mr. Scutchins com- plained of and after some discussion it was decided that an engineer would ‘ ‘:be called in to make an award and have the conditions regarding the dit- ch in that neighbourhood definitely outlined to the interested parties.

The very bad weather of the past month has made it almost impossible to get any work done and the contin- uous Wet weather interferred to a lar- ge extent with the fall program of the council.

They painted a very desolate picture of the deplorable condition of the road on which it was claimed there was practically no expenditure by the township in the past fifty years. The road was practically impassable and the several residents served by the road wanted relief. The council a~ greed unanimously that the conditions as outlined by the deputation existed and were agreed that something must be done.
