The Tri-County Lacrosse League will be officially opened here Satur- day night when Torontos play Young Canadians in the first league game of the season. The junior game here Wednesday night between Mount Dennis and Oak- Woods was one of the best of the season. It was a real lively battle with lots of thrills and excitement. Mount Dennis won and on the night’s play looked a little the better team and are now favorites to win the series. Defeating Young Canadians by a score of 12-6 last Monday night Orillia demonstrated that the northern town is going to make a de- termined bid for lacrosse honors in this section of the province. Young Canadians played far from their best lacrosse and they are capable of giv- ing the “Imports” a much better battle. For l(he winners Scott, for- merly of Mimico, and Clark, notorious defence ringer of the 1932 fall series, were outstanding and accounted for a majority of Orillia’s counters. Orillia management when going into the im- port business must be given credit for picking some good ones. They have a good team and will be hard to beat, but we will be surprised if Young Canadians don’t hand them a trim- ming before the series ends. Torontos are rated as the best sen- ior team in the Queen City and Young Canadians will have to go the limit to register a win in this initial en- counter. Not at all discouraged over their 12-6 defeat at the hands of Orillia’s imports last Monday, Young Canadians practice to-night (Thurs- day) and are confident they can give Cavallo will likely hold down the net guarding position and last Fri- day’s line-up will be strengthened by the addition of “Shorty” Turan of Newmarket and Gapp, husky defence star of the Celery Kings. a good account of themselves in this spring series. Reeve Greene and A. E. Glass, president of the lacrosse club, along with officers of the Torontos club will take part in “the official opening cer- emonies Saturday night sharp at 8:30 p.m., daylight saving time. The Rich- mond Hill Trumpet Band will be in attendance.

NORTH PEEL BOX LACROSSE “In Essentials. Unity,- ln Non-essentials. Liberty; Inf/411 Things, Charity} RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO THURSDAY, MAY 25th, 1933 a fair. The sun shone brightly and the air freshened by the morning showers was fresh and springlike. Undoubt- edly the threatening weather of the morning kept many away and the at- tendance while large did not reach the record point which it probably would have touched had the weather early in the day been more promising. Richmon Hill 84th Annual Fair was a notable success. A sharp thunder storm in the early morning and num- erous showers throughout the fore- noon threatened to spell disaster to the hopes of the officers and directors but by noon the overhanging clouds had cleared away and in the early afternoon the weather «was ideal for The grounds of the Agricultural park never looked better, and the very I noticeable improvement was comment- ed on by the many Visitors to the fair. The showing of horses was the fea- ture of the day, and the horse show was one of the best held in many years. This was especially true in the heavy horse and saddle classes, the competitors in the roadster class- es not being so numerous. The saddle classes, the hurdle] events and the ladies polo game proved the popular attraction during the afternoon and the people were de-‘ lighted with the events and admired the fine horses and the superb horse- manship of the fair contestants. The polo game was staged by the Red and Blue teams of the Eglinton Hunt Club, and the “Reds” won by a score of 6-3, after playing three five min- ute “chuckers” or periods. The jump- ing events were keenly contested and were followed with great interest by the spectators. Richmond Hill Fair Best In Many Years The judging of the horse classes attracted the interest of a large crowd throughout the day, and the fine quality and performance of the equines delighted the Visitors. A. J. Mitchell, Richmond Hill, won lst for his Clydesdales E. T. Stephens took the red ribbon for the team in the Percheron, Farm Chunks and General Purpose classes, and John D. Pattre- son lst for the Agricultural team. There were five teams in the Percher- on team class and there was much interest and speculation among the spectators concerning the outcome. J. Torrance, Markham, won the sweepstakes for heavy classes with his fine imported three year old mare. G. A. M. Davison, Unionville, was a prominent winner in the roadster and pony classes. Football was the main sport attrac‘ tion during the day and in the final game of the tournament Richmond Hill and Emery were tied 0â€"0, and ten minutes overtime failed to bring a score from either team. Prize winners at horseshoes were: doubles 151:, G. Walwin and G. Yerex, Richmond Hill; 2nd, Messrs. Golden and Lenningham of Islington; conso- lation 1st, Messrs. Horseley and Dunâ€" das, Toronto; 2nd, W. Orr and Neil Malloy, Maple; 3rd, Messrs. Steel and McDonald, Islington. Singles lst, G. Walwin; 2nd, J. Dundas; 3rd, W. Steel. « ,r The athletic events, sponsored by the Spartan Athletic Club, were keen- ly contested and brought out some excellent competition. The exhibits in the main building were the best in several years, the exhibitors including F. Y. W. Brath- waite, Hardware, Richmond Hill Knit- ting Mills, Hydro Electric, Richmond Tailors, Department of Agriculture, David Hill and 00., Little Brothers and Richmond Hill Concrete Block Co. An exhibit of more than passing interest was the old bus, which was operated as a vehicle of transpor- tation between Toronto and Richmond Hill in the period 1880-1896. It was exhibited through the courtesy of the T.T.C. who were responsible for hav- ing the old bus preserved as a model of transportation of a by-gone day. In the evening the lacrOSSe game attracted a crowd of about 500 when Mount Dennis won the first round of the junior play-off by a score of 6â€"4 from the fast Oakwoods aggregation. Another popular attraction was the archery competition. The contest atâ€" tracted a large number of spectators throughout the afternoon and the fine marksmanship and skill of the fair contestants was much admired. Miss Fine Horse Show Wins Approval of Visitors-Hurdle Events and Ladies Polo Premier Attractions- List of Prize Winners Besco of Port Credit won the silver cup donated by Mr. J. S. McNait hav- ing a score of 847. Miss Knight of Toronto was second with 737. The centre of much attention in the main building was the Tulip Show staged by the Horticultural Society. A large number of beautiful blooms Were exhibited which added much to the attractiveness of the fair. A full list of the prize winners will ap- pear in our next issue. President J. A. Greene, the other officers and directors had a busy day, but the wonderful success of the 84th annual fair reflects much credit on their efforts.
