Rev. W. E. Dudlc)’. D.D., LL.D._ guest minister of Trinity United Chumh (lief speaker of the eve- ning said curling was a grand game for toning up tiie muscles, sharp- ening the eye. and warming up the body. He read the following ten commandment: oi’ the Curling game:

From the Calgary Aibertan.

1. Thou shalt have no other gamo before me. for I am the roar- irig game W111i!) was in the be- ginning (even in the stone age). is now and ever shall be.

2. Come not upon the ico with the old house broom. ‘Thou canst not quicken the pace of s dying rock with last year's broom.

8. Thou shalt learn thy turns. bot/h the out and the in, for the skip will not hold him guiitiess that throweth the wrong turn.

4. Play not s running shot when thou art asked for a guard. lest thou raise thine own shot. so send- ing tfny skip in the air: such s play getteth his goat. queereth his game, causeth‘ him to swallow his Illd, and revilo thee openly.

B. Thou shalt hearken diligently is tho defeated skip when his voioo b lifted up In iamentation against the punk ico and thou Quit not turn thy faco from him when he blameth his third man. Ivon so shalt thou secure s listen- or against the day of thine own defeat.

6. Thou shalt not luew straws from thy broom in the path of ‘thine own or thine adversaryfis sock. ~

7. Thou shalt have no discourse with thine adversary while his foot is in the hack and his hand is on the rock, but. if thou wilt thou Il-nst pray for him.

l. Thou shalt not push or kick a Dock into the house from behind stoslthiiy, for the opposite skip (will rlso up in righteous indigna- lon over tho edge of tho broom Illldlo and thrust thee hence from In sight of curlers and the days If thy curling will be ended, for lots is an unpardonable sin.

9. Thou shalt not covet thy op- ponent's rock nor his lead player,

either shalt thou filch from him

10. Thou shalt honor thy oppos- llg skip by substituting only play- brs of the same ability as those absent, causing him to DFRISP my name for thy fairness and sports- manship, for many there are who destroy their good names by such conduct. causing their opposing loam mucli bitterness of spirit.

Sim- Ilarly he had travelled with two Jews and the result was mutual rc- lpect.

The speaker said he had farmed Once in Massachusetts with an Immigrant from Norway whose

Thanks Speaker

Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell thanked the speaker and added that without making any odious comparisons. in Summerside cur- ling did not give the men a chance to get away from their wives. nor even their children. He hoped some of the curlers would get an oppor- tunity to visit the thriving Western metropolis and asked Superinten- dent Anderson to read the list of rinks winning the trip to Summer- sido given by Smallmams LliI. Those making tlio trip (his morn- ing at 9.15 weather permitting are O. W. Dunham, St. Stephen. Dr. K. Baird, Carleton Club. West Saint John. and H. A. Sutherland, Pictou.

Mr. Tommy Hsllett, St. John's.

Francis Xavier Uni- versity, winners of the Series B section. ~ . Whoever Wins out in the Ceri- tral Smtion is certainly going to be a busy team, particularly if they win through in the Valley League series, which will neces- sitate playing four games in the splice of five days. This is only the beginning. however. as two days following the series with St. .F.X. University, the winners will continue on into playoffs with the ARC. League, Cape Breton League and lastly into Maritime finals. o o - It is not likely, however. that the winners ‘of the Central Sec- tion will ever‘ progress this far, but if they; should. they are cer- tainly going to have a tough old grind ahead of them. o - n -As concerned. local teams will not be required to take part in outside competition until late in the sea- son.

Art Ross, the. Bniin mastermind, pulled out his tloalio and put on an extra for- ward. This combination brought. the tying goal. The alert Got-man, however, noted that one time clock in the Boston Garden was at. 20 while (lie other was four sec- onds past. 20-minute mark. Gor- man'a p-rotest went unheeded. however. and referee Bill Stewart insisted on ten minutes overtime.

“After three minutes of play. Shore led a ganging attack that produced a disputed goal. Gor- m-sn blew his top completely then, and yanked his team off Q0 ice. The official verdict gave Bo!- ton the game by default, with the score standing at 1-0.

"So Dick Irvin was not. the first to introduce the sitelown strike tn hockey, though there was some indication that he might have re- vived the move. says Dink. Re- cently Happy Emms led his Barrie Juniors off the ice In a game against Windsor Spitfires. He was persuaded to put. tihem on again when warned he might face en- puislon from the Ontario Hockey Association if he made a habit of this behaviolrr."
