He played a big part in keeping the local sharp shooters ofi' the score sheet in the last period. The rest of the Woodbridge new players, are all good men and they have given W‘oodfbridg‘e a strong team. 'They are in first place at present and will be hard to move off the top spot. Maple play Hespeler Monday night at Hespler and then entertain the strong North Peel team on Wednes- day, July 14. Jim ‘Cherrie, the young'ets man of! the floor gave a' good display. This young player looks like “Ernie Cuf- ra’n” of Crime. fame. He played by position well and fishows signs of be- ing a future great. Stars For Woodbi-idge Woodbridge displayed fine, steady team-play all the way through, backed up by good goal tending. Bill Anthony played a great game. His steady play-making gives Wood- bridge a balance _they sadly lacked last year. He is also a tower of strength on the defence. Bill Norton Ronny Ireland, Cos; tator and Sonny Rown‘tree all play" ed well. [Costator is one of the best' two-way men in the ’league. Norm Alexander was the third star in the Maple couse. He scored one goal, played his Usual brilliant defensive game and carried the ball well. ' “Big Boy” Armitage Was the next bright star for the Maple team. He scored twice and played a steady de- fensive game. There were only a few penalties and they were for minor offences. At times the play was sensational and the huge crowd was kept in a continuous uproar. It was a hard game to lose, but Maple even in de- feat showed much improvement over their last clash with Woodbridg‘e. Stars For Maple Roy Thompson scored two goals for the blue shirts and missed many others, but he was Maple’s most dan- gerous player. Woodhridge defeats Maple The fourth period was well on, when Woodbridge, playing a steady checking game, and displaying a de- termined attack, tied-the score. Play resumed at a terrific clip and it was apparent, that a break would settle‘ the issue. It came shortly before the final bell. Tom Amitage was penalized. for dumping a Woodbrldge player. The visitors after several tries finally scored with only a few seconds remaining. Woodbridge Too Steady For Locals In Second Clash In a well played Intermediate B Lacrosse game, Woodbridge nosed out Maple by the score of 6 to 5. Woodbridge fielded a steady team which refused to become rattled as the blue shirts scored four times to their once in the first stanza. their once in the first stanza. In the second period they held Map- le scoreless while they tallied thce making the score 4 to 3 at the half- wéy mark. Maple showed signs of blowing at this time, shooting Wild- ly when they were in close. In the third period, each team scored one goal each, and play was very fast, but again the boys on both sides m’issed great chances. The period ended with Maple still one goal up. Referee: '1‘.

The prayer was: Many years ago in thése columns We published a prayer submitted by an anonymous author which we commended to our readers. This week a visitor to our office fingered through some clippings in his wallet and showed us the clipping which he had carried and treasured all these years, and made the suggestion that we reprint it for present day readers. ' Mr. Edmunds has proven himself a “Good Scout" in ev- ery sens-e of the term and we join with his many frxends in extending coggratulations. We extend congratulations on a well deserved honour. Mr. Edmunds’who is well known here and throughout the district as a public spirited citizen. has for some time been active in Boy'i-Scout work. He has given generously of his time and ability in furthering the interests of the Scout organization in Richmond Hill and for some time has served with outstanding sucCess as assistant district commissioner? ' The Boy Sgout movement ismaking a great and worthâ€" while contritiution to good citizenship in Canada. and back of the work of the Scouts or any similar organization. there must be the careful, far-seeing and wise counsel of public spirited citizens who [are willing to give of their time and energy in" positiims‘ of leadership- All this is done without thought of remuneration, and it is indeed fitting- that at least once and a while some are singled out for hon- our and recognition. The decisibfi which is to be made is so important and will be so fa-i'ifrea'ching _in its‘infiuence on our future growth and development that We trust municipal repres- entatives will not ask the people to make a hasty decision. In our last issue we were happy io‘report that a well de- served honor had been conferred on a citizen of Richmond‘ Hill when Mr. Richard Edmunds was awarded the “Medal of Merit” for outstanding service to the Boy Scout organ- ization by the ‘GOVernoréGenei‘al of Canada. The district._jn.orth of Toronto City limits has shown re- markable growth in the past few years, and we believe will continue to grpw at a faster rate than any other suburban district. The present‘transportation problem must be settled in the Iight'of the'future' with consideration for the develop- ment which is assured this district in the years that lie ahead. ‘ - ‘ In the past’éffiteen'yeatjs the population of Toronto proper has groWn'fby 11,pe1‘ cent, while the suburban area shows an incré‘fifie'ih pOpulation of more than 56 per cent. The trend OfxpOQUIatiOII definitely is to the suburban areas. . - It would ‘be the utmost in folly for the people of North Yonge Street misacnifice :the present radial line and transâ€" portaton franchise foraproposed bus service without the most thorough.rvinvestigation. intensive Study and careful consideration. 2,, o. .
