THURS., DECEMBER _10, 1931 THE -HAILEYBURIAN Page Ds Officers Named By Firemen at Annual Meeting Make Plans for Operation of Skating Rink by Committee of Fire Brigade When the annual meeting of the Haileybury Fire Brigade was held \last week, plans were com- pleted for the operation of the skating rink, under a committee of Aver men, officers were elected for the year and the general business in connection with af- fairsyof the Brigade was trans- acted. Jack Wilder was elected as as- sistant to Chief Joe Marcella; A. J. Peacock was named First Cap- tain and N. McCurdy Second Cap- tain. The secretary-treasurer, W. Bradley, was re-elected and Chas. Austin and Val. Chevrette were elected Trustees. The committee appointed to handle the arena is composed of |* ; |state Chief Marcella, chairman; Bradley, secretary-treasurer; J. Wilder, V. Chevrette and Chas. Austin. This*committee will re- port to the department at each meeting. It was decided that there will be no season tickets sold © this year, but instead a straight charge would be made for each night's skating of 25 cents for adults and 10 cents for children. The firemen are looking forward to a successful season's operation |. of the rink and, with a well or- s - ganized hockey club, it appears 1 as though there would be plenty | of sport during the winter season Spent Pleasant Evening at Dance and Bridge Party The second a a series of dance and bridge parties under the aus- pices of the Oddfellow and Re- q bekah Lodges, held on Friday i evening last, was a very enjoy- able affair and was attended by a goodly number. Both dancing and card games were thoroughly enjoyed and, in spite of a rather cold and disagreeable evening 1 outside, the crowd had a fine rd time. Other events of a similar nature are being arranged. The new plan for holding the _ dances in the lodge room upstairs "awhile the card-games are going on in the banquet room, seems to be working out satisfactorily. The floor of the lodge room has been made fine for dancing and the music being provided is first class. Winners at the bridge tables were: Ladies, first, Mrs. T. J: 4 Duncan; second, Mrs. M. Austin. ig Gentlemen, first, Mr. Jos. Isher- ' wood; second, Mr. J. A. Ruttan. Help the needy ones by mak- ing a contribution to the Christ- mas Cheer Fund. Leave it 'at your bank.
