The letter was referred to the di- rectors for their consideration. Beaverton, it was noted that Presi- dent Fred Christie was made Vice- President of that organization. May Increase Prizes Several matters came up for dis- cussion. It was thought that prizes for both the horses and swine would have to be increased. Per- haps one or more classes would have to be added for horses. Portable or permanent hog pens were discussed, with opinion veer- to the permanent kind. of the ladies thought that exhibition building should be ted inside; but it was point- secretary that the Labor Day is for city people. No sensible farmer within Port Perry radius would go to Toronto Fair that day to be trampled on; but the home attractions must be made as strong as possible. W. J.

Slipping London, Feb. 1.--(Repters) --Bri- tain's 1.Q. may be slipping, an art- icle in the British Medical Journal indicates. Commenting on what it called the "distant prospect of a galloping plunge to intellectual bankruptcy" the article drew attention to a booklet by Sir Cyril Burt, professor of psychology at University College, London. > Burt, the article declared, said that experimental results strongly {| suggest that if present population trends continue, Britain will face its national intelligence. Standard mental ability measure- ment tests showed that members of larger families have, on the aver- age, lower test scores than those classes are found to be on the aver- age (but only on the average) more intelligent in this sense than, child- ren of unskilled laborers. "The maintenance of a steady level of the national intelligence milies have a net reproduction rate well below that of the working * | classes." Accordingly, the British Medical Journal urged an intensive large scale study of the subject by a commission drawn from psycholo- egists, psychiatrists, sociologists %,| and statisticans. : gazes das ie if : BELL REPLICAS .| NOW WORTH $25 St. Thomas, Feb. 1--(CP)--Offers as high as $25 have been received for replicas of the large bell which tolled worshipers to service for 70 years at the First United Church here, it has been announced.

ED Commanding Offr. 31 Armd Regt (Ont R) Mountain Lion Theory Stronger Brampton, Feb, 1.--(CP)--There may be something to the Port Cred- it "mountain lion" story after all. Long before inspector Leslie An- derson of the Toronto Humane So= clety pronounced six-inch animal footprints and the animal he saw to be a mountain lion and defin- itely not a big dog, farmer Wil- burt McBonald. of nearby Credit Forks had suspicion. Farmer nald, two weeks be- fore Mr. Anderson said, "this is a mountain lion, not cougar" with- out explaining the difference, saw suspicious tracks in his cedar swamp. They were six inches across and unlike anything he had ever seen before.. When his collie dog re- turned one day, covered with blood, the farmer thought "the cougar or whatever it is that made the tracks" had killed a deer in the bush and that the dog had taken some meat from the carcass. 80, up Port Credit way, they're shecliaung again: Dog or mountain on?

Get yer Paper here-- 80 from such light headed stuff we turn to Sports. Last night T.CS. Seniors played our Seniors and our boys came through on top by the score of 34-24. The Junior game be- tween Porty Perry and Oshawa was called off at the last moment, be- cause the Port Perry team got snow-bound and could not make the trip. The Juniors however put on & display of basketball with the first line playing the second, at least most of the first line, etc. We weren't there for the end, but we suspected that the second line "the ragged five" won. The Senior game made up for the calling off of the Junior ex. tussle, cause it was packed with thrills and both teams ran fast and hard all the way and never gave in till the final whistle sounded. Crawford was again high scorer with Dell, Reddoch and Rogers (TCS) in second place. 0.C.V.I.

One Day last year while I was in English tlass, Mr. Murphy was explaining the horrible disaster awaiting the unwary when they tried their fnial exams. During this session he made reference to a question on the "Prodigality of Nature". What is it? Well we ran into a new definition.

Collusion At Murder Trial Charge Sarnia, Feb. 1 -- (CP) -- Sugges- tion of coll between Mrs, Gla- dys Morgan' and Harry Holmes, Crown witnesses in the trial of Jo- seph Taylor, 26 for the murder of his 28-year-old wife Rita, was made by defence counsel W, A. Donohue yesterday during the fourth day of e trial. "It must have something to do with the issue in this case to be admissible," Mr. Justice E. R. E. Chevrier, who presided, said. "... if this relationship was connected with' the concocting, manufacturing or fabricating of evidence or get- ting together to discuss stories or io stan facts, then it is admis- sible." "That's exactly what it is, My Lord," defence counsel rejoined. the trial proceeded, Clyde Morgan, a neighbor of Iaylor and his wife testified at length regard- ing. events on the night of Mrs. Taylor's death. He said in the early hours of Nov. 30, Taylor had knocked on the door of his cottage and urged him to go with him to his (Taylor's) cabin. At that time, he 'said Taylor told him he had "fixed the little , . . this time." Morgan quoted Taylor as saying, as he shouted to Gladys Morgan: "For God's sake, if you think any- thing of t! girl Rita, come on down and see her." He got up, opened the door of his cabin, and Taylor came in wearing trousers over underwear which was bloodstained. He said Taylor had a smudge of blood on his cheek and that his voice was a little thick; that he looked "mad". In her evidence Mrs. Morgan said she drank beer with the Taylors in Sarnia, Nov. 29, the day before Mrs. Taylor died. A neighbor of the young couple, she saw them /drive up to their Baxter Row beach cot- tage with Holmes about supper time, called in at the cabin later in the evening and found Mrs. Taylor in the bedroom and Holmes, Taylor and a neighbor ed Goodwin drinking in the kitchen. Expedition Nears Finish Little America, Feb. 1 -- (AP) -- Little America will be evacuated by the last of the United States Navy's Antarctic expedition force about March 1, Admiral Richard H. Cru- gen, task force commander, an- nounced last night. He said the U.8.8. Mt. Olympus, central task force flagship, and two cargo ships, the Merrick and Yan- cey will leave Little America be- tween now and Feb, 10. They are to wait outside the thickening ice- pack while Admiral Richard E. Byrd, expedition commander, and 190 men remain at the tent camp until final evacuation. Cruzen had said previously the expedition might have to leave shortly because the ice pack, heavier than expected, might close in. Plans are for ice-breakers to pick up Byrd and the 190 men and take them to their respective ships. After the last men are brought out and put aboard their ships which will wait near Scott Island the whole group will proceed to the United States. Meanwhile transport planes will keep flying exploratory and photo- graphic missions as the weather permits.
