The game was a hard-fought af- 'fair, with both teams playing strong defensive hockey and no- (body in particular getting into the star column, Both Freddie Faught and "Bud" Fisher, the respective goalers, turned in fine perform- "ances, Strong defensive hockey feat- "Ured the first period of play, and no real openings were allowed. Heavy body checking played a big part in the defensive tactics of both teams, with Red Mooore of the Cataracts and Davey of the off the hon- ¥ ors. The Falls had the odd man advantage twice, but were unable o anywhere, to a pdb gession provided many more thrills and much more exciting hockey than the previous period, and was punctuated by the odd close call, McLeod, Westwick, Matte and Lowery were all out- jucked on good trys for the Cat- aracts. Lott was a near scorer at 'the other end, but Matte reached Bim in time. The heavy body- checking continued in this frame, with Davey and Matte . most con- "+ gpieuous. The cries of "We want Randall" by the Falls fans was heeded near the end of the period when the veteran Ken was sent , out on the Oshawa defense when Davey was penalized. Both teams got further in the third period, although fine saves hy Fisher and Faught 'accounted for another goalless session.

Playoffs Go to Five Games Montreal, March 31.--A rugged efficient Boston team last night handed the Canadiens a 3 to 1 beat- ing, and forced their National Hoc- key League play-off series to five games. Boston have beaten the world's champions twice, and Cana- diens hold two victories over the Bruins, Canddiens were soundly beaten last night, and at no time looked like the same team they were when they faced the Bruins last week. The rugged, shouldering Boston at- tack worked with smoothness and precision to an impressive victory. They held the Canadiens powerless until the last period, when Nick Wasnle took Morenz's pass and sav- ed the Flying Frenchmen from a shut-out, Boston go into the next game here Wednesday night with a moral margin, The Canadiens seemed to wilt last night, and even the play- ers were shaking their heads at their own showing. WHEAT ACREAGE WILL BE REDUCED Conference Urged to Hold Enquiry Into Exorbitant Freight Rate on Canadian Wheat Rome, March 31-The world acre- age of sown wheat is likely to show a considerable decline this year. Low prices and campaigns for more diver- sification of farming are having their effect. Information received by the World Wheat Conference tends to show that the United States sown acreage will prove to have declined although definite figures are not giv- en. The Argentine will probably show a decrease of 15 to 20 per cent, Europe, excepting Russia, will show no increase. And the Soviet Gov- ernment claims that increased Rus- sian acreage will be absorbed largely by increased home consumption. The conference yesterday split into commiittees of production, credits and preterences. Apart from the con- ference proper, the experts of over- seas exporting countries are working on a draft scheme of which the aim is more orderl® marketing. Alexander Slater, Liverpool, urged the holding of an enquiry into the Atlantic freight rate on Canadian wheat which he considered exorbit- ant in some: cases, WAS TRAVELLER IN WEST, YEARS AGO James Bruce Celebrated 80th Birthday in Calgary Calgary, Alta, March, 31--Pioneer resident of western Canada and one of the first white commercial travel- lers west of the Great Lakes, James Bruce, of this city, recently celebrat- ed his eightieth birthday, Still hale and hearty and in reminiscent mood he mused on the trials and tribula- tions of his early days. Born in Fifeshire, Scotland, Mr. Bruce left the the Clyde in 1874, ar- riving in March of the same year at Niagara Falls. From there he mov- ed to Toronto, where he resided for some time, In December, 1880, he trekked to Winnipeg where he be- came a traveller for a dry goods firm, About this time the Canadian Pa- cific Railway was laying, with pain- ful progress, a line of steel across the prairies to the Rockies. Mr, Bruce Jollowed the construction as far west as Cochrane, Alta, where he arrived in 1883, From here he went to Bat- tleford, Sask., takin~ charge of the outpost of a large trading firm, Shortly after Mr. Bruce's arrival at Battleford, Louis Riel returned from a 15-year enforced exile in the Un- ited States following the execution of Thomas Scott at Old Fort Garry, and stifred revolt in Northern Sask- atchewan. In this Mr. Bruce took an important part, After the rebel- on he was appointed government receiver of estates at Red Deer, lat- \ér moving to Wetaskiwin, Lacombe and finally settling at Nelson, B.C, In 1913, Mr. Bruce retired and moved to Calgary where he has re- sided ever since, "This age 1s above all an age of violence in the sense of coercion." ~G.

GEODETIC EXPLORATORY WORK In doing reconnaissance or ex- nloratory work for the carrying on of its triangnlation schemes the Gieodetic Survey of Canada, Depart. ment of the Interior. obtains a great deal of Information concerning un- developed country, including find- ing and locating hills or mountains, existence and location of water routes. When a triangulation scheme is laid out an attempt 1. made to choose a series of outstand- ing hill tops or summits to be used for station sites that will most eco- nomically and thoroughly cover the area in question. This is also the object of those who lay out schemes for forest protection, and if it hap- pens that triangulation has alrendy been done, these station sites will make excellent locations for fire lookout towers, since they have a good command of the surrounding country besides the fact that their locations may have previously been accurately determined, WATER POWER IN THE PULP AND PAPER INDUSTRY The pulp and paper industry maintains a hydraulic turbine in- stallation totalling almost 580,000 h.p. and purchases hydro-electricity to operate electric motors rated at over 944,000 h.p., indicating a total of approximately 1,624,000 h.p. of hydraulic power utilized for motive power by the industry. This is ac- cording to the figures of the Do- minfon Water Power and Hydro. metric Bureau, Department of the Interiar. In addition large amounts of surplus, seasonal or off-peak electricity are used in electric steam boilers for the production of pro- cess or heating steam.

Though much bickering and cross-firing illuminated the ses- sion, the frequent reiterations of the charges investigated by the commission union flashing out, last 'year's executive was returned intact, with ome . exception, and Miss Mabel Ray will again be president of the association. In the fate of the executive's refusal to resign, as demanded by four of the component leagues, these four indicated their inten- tions of withdrawing from the association henceforth: Beaches, East York, Nationals and St. Clair-Spaulding. : Henceforth, too, there will be no advisory board of men connect- ed with the association as form- erly. Miss Ray in making that suggestion very strongly ques- tioned their usefulness and neces- sity as a part of the assqeiation organization.
