All Important ‘ Lacrosse Game Monday Night Alliston lacrosse team, lone con- querors of the Young Canadians in the present Tri-County series, will play the final schedule home game of the fall series in Richmond Hill arena next Monday night. A win for Alliston gives them the right to meet Young Canadians in the play-off for the group title and as they defeated the local squad at Alliston last week in a hectic game that went twenty minutes overtime they are confident that they can repeat the performance right in the Young Canadians’ own camping ground. Several bus loads of enthusiastic Alliston fans are ex- pected to follow the team er this all important battle and fans are as- sured of the best game of the year. To say that Alliston is a much im- proved team compared to when they last visited Richmond Hill is only half telling the story. At the present moment they are a very strong laâ€" crosse team and their supporters boast that they could give Orillia or any of the strong senior teams of the year a real battle for the honors. In the game at Alliston when they sur- prised the Young Canadians by ad- ministering a 16-14 defeat they had three star performers on the lineâ€"up Who were unable to play when the team visited Richomnd Hill before. One of these new stars alone account- ed for 6 of the team’s goals that night Young Canadians are having two practices this week in preparation for this big game and hope to be in the pink of condition for the test next Monday night. They are noflgoing into the game overâ€"confident or un- derestimating the ability of the in- vaders. They know that they will have to go the limit to stop Alliston in their championship ambitions and they will be fit and ready when Mon- day night comes. Richmond Hill Young Canadians tasted their first defeat of the fall series at Alliston Friday night, when they lost out in a game which went twenty minutes overtime by a score of 16-14. Alliston tied the score 12- 12 in the last minute of the regular playing ,time and in the overtime were able to put on that extra spurt which spelled victory. According to the concensus of opinion of those who witnessed the game the winners deâ€" served their victory on the night’s play. They played excellent lacrosse and had all the appearances of a championship team. Alliston was at full strength with three players on the line-up who did not play when the team visited Richmond Hill a ‘couple of weeks ago. Young Cana- dians made a determined effort to maintain their winning streak but just failed by a narrow margin. They received some costly penalties and were not as effec ive in their com- bination play as t ey have been in former games this fall. Alliston fans were jubilant over their win and are confident that their boys can repeat when the two teams meet in the next game at Richmond Hill. Young Canadians supporters are confident that their boys can de- feat this Alliston crew but when they meet the fans are certain to see the best game of the year. When Allis- ton come to Richmond Hill take this tip and be on hand to see the game Richmond Hill Young Canadians defeated Camp Borden in a league game at Alliston Tuesday evening by a score of 13-7 and "thus made their record for the series 7 wins and one loss. It was a good game and was enjoyed by a large crowd of spec- tators. Play started off strongly in the first period until Peck and Kerr counted for Camp on a nice effort. E. White counted for the Hill to make the score 2 to 1 at the end of the first quarter. Richmond Hill started off in the second period with Barrett and C. Miller scoring two each and E. White one. S. Partridge counted for the Camp and C. Miller and Barrett re- taliated with one each to end the period. Mason and Cordick were called upon to save brilliantly in this period. The third period opened with Kerr scoring for the Camp in three min- utes, and A. White and E. Miller scor- ing for Richmond Hill. Play in the fourth quarter lagged, but opened up when Barrett scored two in a row for the Hill. Drake, on a nice play, scored for Camp, while S. Partridge made it 13 to 7 to end the game. Proposed Street Lighting Would l: Increase Taxes The improvement of the lighting on Yonge Street by the installation of new lights which has been under dis- cussion and consideration of the muni cipal council of Richmond Hill Village for some months, was given a decided set-back at the special meeting of the council Tuesday evening when Coun- cillor Mills announced that the new lights would mean about another half mill on the tax rate. As the council was about to read correspondence from a number of firms and hear numerous representatives. of different firms handling street lights Coun- cilor Harold Mills stated that he thought the members should first de- cide whether or not they were going ahead with the project'as it was only wasting time to hear a lot of reprin- sentatives if they didn’t intend to go ahead. “The cost of the present lighting is $310.00 per annum and the annual cost of the proposed new sys- tem would be $768.00” said Councillor Mills. “This would mean the tax- payers of Richmond Hill would be called upon to pay.$458.00 per year extra for street lighting which means about half a mill on our taxes. 1 am therefore opposed to any expen- diture on street lighting which will raise our taxes half a mill” said Coun cillor Mills. Clerk A. J. Hume confirmed the figures of Councillor? Mills and stated that the additional cost for street lighting which according to Hydro regulations must be levied in the taxes would amount to at least $400. Reeve Greene agreed with Coun- cillor Mills that the project should be all off if the additional cost would be so great. “$400 more is too much” he said. Councillor Middletonâ€"“I’m in favor of a well lighted town and we cerâ€" tainly need some improvements but I do not favor it if it means a half mill on our taxes. We can’t stand that.” When the idea of new lighting for Yonge Street was first discussed it was felt that this improvement couldl be brought about by using some of‘ the $3,500.00 now lying as a surplus in the Hydro account which cannot be used for any other purpose than Hydro work according to the rules and regulations of the provincial com- mission. The permiSSion of the Hydro Commission was obtained to make a capital expenditure of about $1500.00 for new lights on Yonge Street out of this surplus fund but the joker in the pack came to light when it was revealed that the annual street light- ing costs wduld be materially in- creased. This increased cost more- over must not be taken from the ac- cumulating surplus in the Electric Light account, but according to the very definite rulings of the Hydro Commission the cost of street light- ing at so much per light must be levied on the taxpayers, Reeve Greene suggested that in View of the fact that there is appar- ently a surplus of power in Ontario toâ€"day that Councillor Alex Little, chairman of the electric light commit- tee, be appointed to interview the Hydro to ascertain if it would not be possible to secure a more favorable price for the street lighting.

RAILWAY SHOWS SMALL PROFIT FOR QUARTER The report on the operation of the North Yonge Railway for the month of September showed an operating loss of $321.08. The statement showed that the passenger revenue for the month of September, 1933, was about $800.00 less than in September, 1932. The report for the third quarter of 1933, the months of July, August and September, showed an operating profit of $27.51 Few Appeals At Court of Revision Only six ratepayers appealed against their assessment at the anâ€" nual Court of Revision held Tuesday evening which would indicate that there is general satisfaction with the assessment of the municipality this year as carried out by the assessor, Mr. A. E. Glass. Only in one of the six appeals did the court make any adjustment and in all other cases the assessment as made by the assessor was confirmed. The one instance in which change was made was in the case of the new house erected on Richmond Street by Mr. John S. Hall. The building was assessed for $200.00 'and Mr. Hall produced his building receipts to show that it cost him only $121.00. Mr. Hall pointed out that the house is not finished in any way inside and is merely used for a summer residence a few months of the year. The asâ€" sessment was reduced on motion of councillors Middleton and Little to $125.00. m”â€" | WHERE “CAPITOL ENTERTAINMENT" REIGNs| ’ â€"â€" FRiDAY and SATURDAY OCT. 27. 28 ENGLANDS QUEEN OF COMEDY - Cicely Courtneidge Mr. Ivan M’arks appealed against an assessment of $1550.00 on his buildings on the grounds that one of his pidgeon houses was destroyed by fire and no reduction was made. Mr. Glass, the assessor, pointed out that he felt that even with the loss of one building the prcsent buildings were still not assessed too high and the court upheld his opinion and the as- sessment was confirmed. Mr. Gosstick, who owns a property on Centre Street East,‘ appealed against an assessment Vof $600. No reduction was made aan the assess- ment was confirmed. Mr. T. H. Trench appealed against the assessments of all his properties on the grounds that he claimed all were too high in comparison to other village properties The Canadian Bank of Commerce building exclusive of the land is assessed for $3375.00 which Mr. Trench claimed was too high in comparison to other proper- ties. Mr. Trench’s block on the corâ€" ner of Lorne and Yonge Streets is} assessed $6,550.00 for buildings and $2,000.00 for land, his residence $600 on land and $3400 on buildings, the new residence he built last year $300. 00 on land and $2300 on the building, and a vacant lot on the north side of Lorne Avenue is assessed at $300.00.
