THURSDAY, MAR. 19th, 1931 THE HAILEYBURIAN Final Game In Elliot Contest Is Still to Play Liskeard and Haileybury Rinks Will Fight. It Out When Ice Is Available The resting place of the Elliott 'Cup for the summer months is still in doubt, as that contest, played annually for the benefit of the Children's Shelter, reached the finals just as the mild wea- ther spoiled the ice on both the Liskeard and Haileybury curling tinks. The game was billed to take place.on Haileybury ice this evening, had that been possible, but an inch or two of water has intervened. A rink of the New Liskeard club and one of the local club are in the finals. Wat. Thompson re- presents the farming town, while Geo .Sutherland is the Hailey- bury skip. In the semi-finals last week each of the winners faced a rink from the opposing club, a condition that was ar- ranged as nearly as possible throughout the contest. Thomp- son defeated Roy Thompson, of Haileybury, to enter the finals, while Sutherland's victim was F. Goddard, of New Liskeard. At the beginning of this week a Veterans' contest was arrang- ed, with a number of rinks enter- ed and play to commence on Monday night. The mild weath- er prevented the start, and only a considerbale change in temper- ature can make it possible to carry out this competition. GENEROUS DONATIONS FROM MANY CITIZENS THANKFULLY RECEIVED The local fire brigade, the members of which handled the Junior hockey team during the present season, have asked us to acknowledge with their sincere thanks, the many generous dona- tions of the citizens, which made it possible for the boys who made such a splendid showing in the league, to have a trip to Toronto last week. Haileybury people were justly proud of the Junior team this year and were liberal in their pro- vision of the necessary funds to give the boys the trip. They went to the city late last week, _where they were able to see the _ games between the Soo Grey- hounds and Niagara Falls, and all enjoyed the visit. PRESENT PARLIAMENT FIRST TO BE OPENED BY NATIVE CANADIAN The present session of parlia- ment sets one precedent inas- much as for the first time in his- tory the ceremonies were carried out by a native-born Canadian. It was. to Rt. Hon. Lyman P. Duff of the Supreme Court of Canada, as acting Administrator of the Govenment, that the dis- tinction of opening Parliament fell in the absence of a Governor- General. It has quite frequently happened that sessions have been prorogued by Chief Justices of the Supreme Court but it has never been called into session ex- cept by a Governor- General. On the present occasion Chief Jus- tice Anglin is in the South on sick leave and Mr. Justice Duff replaced him. The too slow automobile driv- er will be subject to a fine, as well as the speeder, under an amendment to the Highway Traffic Act, which provides a penalty for anyone "driving so slowly as to impede or block the normal and_ reasonable move- ment of traffic." CANADIAN TRANSATLANTIC CONQUEROR TO TRY CONTINENT NON-STOP FLIGHT Errol Boyd, intrepid airman, who conquered the Atlantic Ocean last year in a non-stop flight, has decided to try and fly from Vancouver to Charlottetown--Pacific to Atlantic-- in one long hop, Boyd will make the attempt in June and it is expected that Navigator O'Connor, who guided the Canadian over the Atlantic to England, will fly with him again on the new venture. The pictures above show the line of the proposed flight, with Erral Boyd (right) and O'Connor (left). : Sport Notes +e When Niagara Falls Juniors captured the round from Soo Greyhound Juniors on Monday evening, 8-7, it Was felt by many observers that the Cataracts had made a great stride toward the Memorial Cup, emblematic of the Dominion championship, but the Ottawa Primrose team rose up as a distinct obstacle last ev- ening in the Capital, taking the Gene Fraser crew for a white- washing, 4-0, and seemingly got a strangle-hold on Eastern Can- ada honors. The return game will be played in the Toronto Arena on Friday night. Truro Bearcats and the win- ners of the McGill-St. Francois Xavier series will meet in Senior hockey playdowns for the right to meet the winners of the Ham- ilton Tiger-Ottawa series for the right to represent Eastern Canada in the Allen Cup finals, which will be played in Winni- peg on March 30th, April Ist, and if necessary, April 3rd. Hamilton eliminated the Sudbury Wolves Monday evening, winning the round 7-1. Truro are Maritime champions, although deprived of three of their best players, Jem- mett, Shields and Sargent, all with N.O.H.A. teams last year, and who did not move in time to comply with the ersidence rule. The North Bay Trappers have challenged for the new Binkley Cup, but the challenge will have to wait until Haileybury and New Liskeard Juniors settle the disposition of it. Their game was billed for last night, but the soft weather had played havoc with the ice in the arena here and the tilt had to be postponed.

The gentlemen will be intrduced to the Cabinet Min- isters by. A. V.

They have the opinion of road en- gineers that that amount could be saved in their operations, if it were not necessary to employ settlers at times when the cost of road work is at its highest. They point out that if all hauling of gravel was done by trucks in the summertime, a great saving would be effected. Under the present system the farmers are employed in the winter with their teams in this work and in many cases the gravel is hauled great URNING ¥ g9 QUESTION By L.W.

HELP THE NEEDY The local corps of the Salvation Army is again appealing for help in the form of used clothing for some needy families in Hailey- bury and the district. Any art- icle that can be spared will be thankfully received and will be sent where they are urgently needed. Citizens are asked to do what they can in the way of as- sistance. A call to Lieut. Mcfar- lane will be greatly appreciated.
