Richmond Hill Will HaveOwn Phone Book A separate Bell Telephone dir- ectory for Richmond Hill and vic- inity is to be issued to telephone subscribers here early in October. C. E. Blosdale, Bell Telephone manager announced this week that Richmond Hill listings will no longer be included as a special sec- tion of the Toronto directory but will be contained in a new book which will also have listings for subscribers in Aurora, Claremont, King, Maple, Markham, Newmark- et, Roche’s Point, Schomberg, Sut- ton, Thornhill, Unionville, Ux- bridge and Woodbridge. Farmer Norm Alexander will meet Tiny Tim Rusk of East York in the semi-final. Rush is a new- comer to Richmond Hill but comes highly recommended by big-time wrestler, Pat Flanagan. The new directory, the manager stated, will provide telephone sub- scribers here with a more conven- ient book, in view of the steady 1n- crease in the number of telephones in Richmond Hill and other nearby centres. When the next Toronto directory is issued early in 1952, the com- pany will also provide Richmond Hill subscribers with a directory containing the Toronto alphabetical pages, if they return the post card which will be enclosed with their next telephone bill. Bill Clubine and Red Garner, popular mat artists, will tangle with “Baron” Von Sieber and “Mangler” Ed Mangotich in a. challenge team match to a finish. Clubine particularly was enraged at the treatment received by him last Friday and combined with the veteran Langstafl‘ grappler, Red Garner, hopes to dish out some of the same to Mangotich and Von Sieber. ' Bobby Jordan, who made such an impression on the last card, and Rocky Bollder of Scarboro will wrestle in one of the preliminar- iés and Johnny Parisi and Red “Rooster” Bradley will continue their fued in the curtain raiser. Another excellent programme is being arranged for the following Friday, August 3. wearing white accessories. On their return the couple will reside near Uxbridge. A personal telephone number booklet will be available, also on request, for the listings of Toronto or any other numbers called fre- quently.

The Bin- go and games of chance were well patronized, also the popular food bar in charge of the Women’s In- stitute. Tickets were sold on the Meteor car until after 11 o’clock, Mr. and Mrs. George Brown and their help- ers working unceasingly to make as many sales as possible.

He has been in Canada for only two months, and expects to prepare a 'home here for his wife and two sons who have re- mained in England for this year. There was much confusion in lo- cating Mr. McConville as he had moved from the address written on the ticket stub, and it was Thurs- day morning that George Brown located him at place of business, the Downsview Lumber 00., where he is employed as a salesman. He ‘was completely overcome by his good/fortune in winning the car, saying htat a car was away in the background of his dreams. ,On Thursday night Mr. McConville came to King to take possession of the ar and to make the necessary transfers, and he was introduced to the executive of the Lake Marie Athletic Association, and to several men of King City who hail from towns near Newcastle-on-Tyne. The Women’s Institute cleared about $85.00 at the Carnival, in- cluding the money earned at the food booth, and through the sale of tickets on a. quilt that was drawn for on We’dnesday night. The sale of home-made pie 8. la mode, hot dogs and coffee was very brisk during the evening, and had the rain not come so suddenly the booth would have been cleared by midnight. As it was the ladies were able to dispose of the left- overs, and the weir rs were put in storage for a later occasion. Mrs. G. Brown was in charge of the ordering and Mrs. A. E. Jarvis, Mrs. Roy Hollinshead and Mrs. Aubrey Campbell were ably assist- ed by many members of the Insti- tute.
