the court is also called on to decide whether or not three bills passed by the alberta legislature are valid that is if the provincial government had the power under the constitutioa to pass them these bills deal with tbft control of credit in the province with the taxation of banks and with cer tain restrictions on the press the arguments are based on provlslobs of the british north america act which define the sphere of jurisdiction ntj the dominion and the provinces on the one hand the provinces may ex- cluively legislate on matters affecting property and civil rights within the province while the dominion has exclusive jurisdiction over banking and currency and questions relat ing to peace order and good government about these and other provisions of our constitution the battle of legal wits has been raging but it is not correct to call it a battle it is rather a sober exchange of argument by some of the greatest legal talent tn cjtnada on questions of profound

fans like to see the boys get out there and fight and fight hard but when they resort tohanalhg out unnecessary bodychecks and tryingto get the man instead or the puck well that is a horse or another color we know the referee in the orangeville game wasn t as good as he might have been but he was out there doing his best taking a rough ride from the players and tha crowd but that did not excuse those who took advantage of him and did everything but pick up or give a few good passes that might have meant the two goals they round themselves short at the end or the game the juniors find out now that it isnt going to be tree sailing to get to the playoffs on top and some good games can come out of the mist of the last two affaire it they get down and play real honest togoodness hockey of
