a junior football league was formed by the three schools of acton milton and georgetown to give the younger kids a chance to learn the rules and regulations of rugby and give them an idea on how to

practising man they are huge november 5th the juniors play ed against acton and got waked on to the tune of 137 it shoud have been 1313 or even 1413 if actons delegate for referee wasnt so attentive when georgetown had the ball there were some poten tial players seen in the persons of bob henderson and doug hazel who did most of the running three other stars of the game were dave smith bob bingham and tom ross who played an all out game it seems that acton persists in playing the man and not the ball for we had a fairly serious accid ent to doug hazel when a high spirited acton player

ontario hydro is to broaden its density requirements for farm line extensions by building twothirds of a mile from existing lines to any soundly established farm in stead of onethird of a mile as at present in addition the commis sion will shortly introduce into the present hamlet rural rate structure a kilowatthours per kilowalthour with ten per cent discount for prompt payment making a net rate of one cent per kjlowatlhour this is designed to benefit rural customers in high- density residential areas by bring ing their rate closer in line with municipal rates these farreaching changes in rural policy were announced by hydro chairman james s dun can cmc ll d at a press conference november 12th and they were among a number of important hydro matters which he reviewed when he reported to the people of no cost to the user to any farm situated within a third of a mile of existing lines there is an other group of farmers however irving just beyond the third-of-a- milc limit whose understandable desire for electric power has fre quently been discussed by our commission and has been a matter ment in the areas concerned the desire to serve these customers was ever present in our minds the cost involved has been the deter rent notwithstanding the financial sacrifices involved mr duncan said that the commission has de cided to broaden its density re quirements for farm line exten sions by building twothirds of a mile from existing lines to any soundlyestablished farm instead of onethird of a mile as at pres ent he strongly emphasized however that this was as limit and wishing to obtain elec tric power would have to build any line in excess of twothirds of a mile at his own expense no ex ceptions he said could be made to the rule in relation to the rate revision the hydro chairman said that strong representations had been made to the commission by subur ban residential customers in the rural system who had asked that their rates should be more in keeping with those in adjacent municipalities he stated that this matter had received the full est consideration and that he was glad to announce that the com mission would shortly introduce into its hamlet rural rate struct a new third block of 500 kilowatt- hours a month at 11 cents per kilowatthour this change he explained was designed to bene- fit customers in highdensity resi dential areas by bringing their rate closer in line with municipal rates suit winner j mrs mildred oates 6 wesleyan st was the october winner of tbe the province by radio he commission could go and that odd fellows suit of the

of people in the rural areas their natural desire to enjoy the comforts and material benefits of electricity is fully ap preciated over the years rapid progress has been made in this direction and power is now avail- able to some half a million cus tomers residing in the rural areas of ontario three times the number served at the end of world war ii i the hydro chairman pointed out that today 94 per cent of all the farmers in tbe province have electrical facilities available to them a percentage equal to any j country in the world it goes without saying he stated that pro- j viding service to farms in sparse- lypopulated areas is expensive arsd uneconomical the install- ation of a mile of rural line costs on the average over 5000 tinder existing arrangements continued mr duncan ontario
