The Cubs, fired up by their Fri- day night defeat, took control of the puck and poured a barrage of rubber at Dubousky in the Lions net, but the 'stocky netminder handled all their drives, but one. He was lucky as well as good, shots by Grant and Vail which had him beaten hit the post and bounc- ed into the clear. He stopped 17 shots during the red hot period. Fern Belanger was the only man able to put the puck in the net. Lions managed a meagre seven shots at the Liskeard net, but French, Smelter and Allain each blasted one past Grenon. In the second period the Cubs found the range, and although shots on goal were even for the _ teams, the Cubs counted three to give them. a one goal lead, with 20 minutes left to play. Grant, Haines and Melong were point-getters for the Cubs. 3 : It took Espanola just five min- utes in the third period to tie the score, take the lead and add an insurance counter, and then the team dropped into a tight defen- sive pattern that the Cubs had difficulty in piercing. : Downie shortened their lead to one goal, with less than five min- utes to play, and the Cubs pulled out all the stops to get the equal- izer. Larouche gave the fans a thrill when he caught Haines' clearing pass, and was away in front, but he lost controK.of the puck for a moment, and his shot trickled past the corner. The Cubs were storming the Es- panola citadel when the buzzer sounded to end the game and their bid for the championship, but the Lions, defence held. Coach Don Shepherdson was dis- appointed at the result of the ser- ies, but had no complaints to make. : < "We made a few costly mis- takes," he said, "but the worst. one was that we under-estimated Es- panola. We had just come out of a really tough series against South PorCupine, and I guess we thought it wasn't possible to meet another team quite as tough."' Although the Cubs have had a long season, they are not yet hang- ing up their gear. They will meet an All-Star team of former juven- iles and intermediate players in a benefit game for the Nurses' Residence. The game will be held Friday night in the local area.

Siscoe Mines Annual Report Siscoe Mines reports net income of $208,273, highest since 1951.

Improved results are attributed to continued fine silver produc- tion at Siscoe Metals of Ontario Limited of 1,420,144 ounces, off slightly from the 1959 year output of 1,444,425 ounces. Mine explora- tion resulted in discovery of ore in two sections of the mine hither- to regarded as_ unproductive, which are thought to hold consid- erable pramise. Mining costs were wr -calta Oils.

Examinations fo Enter Grade 13 After this year all promotions to Grade 13 in secondary schools will be on-the basis of examinations from Grade 12. The Department of Education is dispensing with the old system of recommenda- tions, the 'ministry of -education has announced. Deputy Education Minister C. W. Booth told' the Ontario Secondary Association that the new policy was the re- sult of experimental Grade 12 tests given by the Department in 1958- 9-60. The Department had been en- couraging principals to discard the recommendation system. Writing of final Grade 12 exams has been required' in Toronto for the last five years. students for more difficult depart- mental exams encountered in Grade 13. The headmasters were told by Dr. C. A. Brown, registrar of the Ontario Department of Education, that Grade 13 examinations are the best indication of how a stu- dent will do in university. He told the association that uni- versities are trying to blame their difficulties with increasing num- bers of applications on the examin- ation and the marking procedure. Dr. Brown said his department is taking steps to speed up the marking of papers. Because of dif- ficulties involved it was unlikely results would be available any earlier. Surprise Presentation Miss Ethel Graff, whose mar- riage will be -an event of early April, was honored at a surprise presentation and tea on Tuesday afternoon. It was arranged by her fellow workers on the staff of the Haileybury Public School. The principal, Mr. C. E.

The motion received substan- tial support from the 100 or more delegates who crowded into the meeting room, but Dave Mann from Virginiatown and Joe Ma- vrinac of Kirkland Lake asked for nomination meeting. Mr. Mann expressed the view of many from the Northern part of the riding when he said that a can- didate should be named with the least possible delay. Mr. Mavri- hac said that the riding covered such a wide area that it took con- Siderable time for a candidate to contact the electors. He felt that an early nomination would be ad- vantageous to the candidate. President, Mrs. G. A. Hodgson of Englehart said that she had been assured by responsible mem- bers of the government that there would not be an election in 1961. |"And we have also been advised against having a convention too far in advance of the election,"' she said. Delegates elected a new execu- tive for the riding, Mrs. Hodgson was re-elected as president, Joe Mavrinac, 1st vice-president, Chas. Bowie, second vice-president, the secretary will be appointed by the executive which will include pre- sidents and secretaries from local associations throughout the riding. A suggestion by Mrs. Hodgson |that a letter of sympathy be sent ito Walter Little, ill at his home in Kirkland Lake was unanimously approved. Mrs. Hodgson said that Mr. Little had served the district faith- fully for 18 years as federal mem- The Haileyburian Page 2 District Conservatives Set Date For Convention ber for the riding.

Bad Yankee Bills Appear in North Counterfeit USA $20 bills are ap- pearing in Northern Ontario, and the RCMP is asking businessmen and eitizens to be on the lookout for the bogus issue. The serial numbers are as fol- lows: B92737275A A66556809A A66176771A B92957297A A66256779A A66056759A A66276781A The bills bear face plate E17 and back plate 888. Upon close examination, these numbers can be seen on the backs and fronts of the bills. Anyone having infor- mation on the bills or persons at- tempting to pass them is asked to notify the nearest police depart- ment, where ever possible, giving a description of the passer. April 7 Is World Health Day "Accidents Need Not Happen" theme for 1961 --photo by National Safety Council ' 'Though she doesn't know it, this little lady is playing with , danger. For the scissors she holds can be, in hands as young as hers, as deadly as a loaded pistol. And accidents such as the one this child is courting are all the more tragic because they need never have happened, In the majority of cases, simple safety measures on the part of adults could prevent the thousands of accidents that yearly bring tragedy to homes around the world. It is in recognition of acci- dents as a growing health prob- lem throughout the world that the World Health Organization has chosen "Accidents Need Not Happen" as the theme for the celebration April 7 of the 18th anniversary of its found- ing. WHO and its 105 Full and _four Associate Member States "are working to reduce the haz- ards to health that accidents of all description represent -- "in the home, on the farm, in ; industry, aboard ships at sea, | planes in the air, trains on 'land, and in the streets of the world's cities and towns. Of all accidents, those af- fecting children aré perhaps the. ruost costly and tragic.
