Unionville Fire Brigade have had many calls for service since the new siren has been installed. On Monâ€" day last a signal came from Hag- erman which proved to be a danâ€" gerous grass fire at J as. Muirhead’s farm. A few days previous 3. simiâ€" lar call came from the Davies farm near Milliken. In both cases the fire was extinguished. Wednesday night the alarm struck home, prov- ing to be the stable back of the Gilliam house on North Main St which was burned to the ground.

If anyone has nothing to do on a Friday night they can have 4 hours of healthy e‘njoy'ment watching the matches put on by this Club at Rich- vale, everything from biting to gougâ€" ing goes on. The feature Friday night is a bout between a boxer and a wrestler. Maple . . . . . . Richmond Hill Richvale . . . . . The writer made a trip to Fergus on Monday night and saw something that is worthwhile passing on to boys who ride wheels on Yonge St. at night. Out on No. 7 highway when you meet anybody on a wheel they move their left arm up and down and it is quite easy to see them even if another car is coming from the other direction. The Lacrosse Standing JUVENILE Orillia and Brampton will now play off to see who will meet Roden in the finals. When these final games are played Roden will play their home games at Richmond Hill and the fans are in line for some nice games of lacrosse. At Barrie Monday night Roder Jrs. defeated Orillia Jrs. 18-15 in a wild scoring game and won the group leadership. Maple outplayed Richvale for most of the game and seemed to have the Richvale team all at sea. But when Richvale finally settled down and played lacrosse they scored 4 goals. The Richlvale team has al- ways been the underdog team ever since the lacrosse was first started but Jack Warwickl seems to have lined up a team this year that will take some beating once they get playing- together more. These teams play a brand 'of la- crosse that keeps the crowd on their feet all the time. Their passing plays are even better than the older boys and they handed out stiff body checks without regard for them- selves or their opponents. The second game on Tues. night Maple defeated Richvale JJuveniles 11-4. ' Tuesday'night Richvale Midgets played- Maple Midgets in the first game. Maple won 4-2. In this game Richmond Hill start- ed out as if they were going to Town in a. big way. But the Richvale boys said no and battled them to a standstill and only Richmond Hill’s experience won the game and when Richvale finally hit their stride the other teams had better watch out. The second game was more of the rugged type of lacrosse. Richmomi Hill Juveniles defeated Richvale Juveniles 9-5. The first game served up to the big crowd was between “Super” Mabley’s Pets or otherwise Richmond Hill Midgets and “Miloe” Miller’s Colts from Maple. How these boys turn it on asking no quarter from anyone and giving none. These boys are not allowed to use their sticks on their opponents, they must use their body only, and to see some of the smaller boys step into the bigger ones is worth the price of th ad- mission alone. final count The crowd of people arise and shout, Well played, Cecil. Thursday night the arena was the scene of two mighty good games of Lacrosse. Cece, as he was most widely known has been connected with the sport activities of the Village either as an official or one of its most ardent fans ever since school days. Known as a fair and; square deal- er the underdog team was always sure of the support of Cece. When the Great Umpire calls the The sport world offers its deep- est and heartfelt sympathy to Mrs. Violet Halding and Elmore Harding in the loss of their beloved husband and brother Cecil Harding.
