Rundle was sick and McMillan and Nasmith failed to show up at the rink in Uxbridge at the appointed time, At first it was thought that some of the Uxbridge hockey team had hired some one to keep them away, but that was exploded when a phone call was put through to their homes and it was found that they had been gone two hours. A car was sent after them at is was believed they Were stuck, but no trace of them was 'found so at 9.30 it was decided best to start the game with six men. The line up for P.P.H.S.--Shepherd, goal; Collacutt and Crosier, defense; Harris, centre; Dowson, R. wing, and Beare, L. wing.

Tickets were also drawn for the comin, Mr. Wm. Moon had the misfortune to lose his good driving mare last week. Death was«due to the bursting of a blood vessel in the head. In reply to an article under the heading "Hockey Notes" appearing in the Star a few weeks ago asking, "where, oh where, has the bush league gone", I would like to give my version of the topic under the heading: Rea< sons for the breaking up the Port Perry Hockey League. First=Lack of support from the townspeople of Port Perry. league as it has been operated during the past three winters' consisted of one team from Port Petry, Honeydale, Seagrave and Sonya. Teams.that re- presented communities whose people call Port Perry their town from whom) the business men of the town derive a large share of their business. All games were held as doubleheaders with the maximum fee of 25¢ charged for both games. The number of towns- people attending these games never averaged over a dozen people, and had it not been for the fans who ac- companied the respective country teams they would have had a deficitc after paying the small charge of $4 for the use of the rink. I do not think that any one can use the excuse that the brand of (may we call it hockey) was not worth a quarter. The boys at least played the game at all times and the faithful few, I think, will agree with me on that score, What. a contrast to the support that rural communities or Bush Leaguers give to all intermediate games held in + Port Perry. On one occasion alone when a special train was run from Uxbridge, eighty-five tickets were sold at Seagrave station, that number irrespective of those that travelled by other means, shows the support that comes from our commufity alone, I would venture to say that, leaving out, the support of the rural communities, the ror club representative of the town of Port Perry would show a far greater deficit than it has at present. Second--The team from town that was formerly in the Port Perry Rural Hockey League saw fit to join the South Ontario League rather than re- main with the old group, their reasons they know best. The South Ontarios League consisting of villages whose business support without exception goes largely to the south. : As one business man in town remarked. It is poor business. e are not knockers, and love the game for the pleasure we get out of whether playing or watching it being played, but everyone knows that any project lacking support all goes theu e hope for a revival for next winter.

D0 WICK PRESBYTERIANS SUCCEED IN CLAIMS The --non-concurring members of Wick Presbyterian Church have suc- ceeded in their claim that when the church was voted into Union by a majority of two votes that vote wus taken on an improperly revised roll and that names of non-concurring members had ben removed therefrom just prior to the vote. A judgment to this effect was handed down yesterday y Mr, Justice Orde. Justice Orde's Judgment: "Each side presents a list of per- sons as constituting those entitled to vote, The two lists are identical as to the great majority of those whose names appear on each, they being persons whose right to vote is ad- mitted by both parties. Upon the list presented by the United Church there are but two names to which the non- concurring Presbyterians object. All the others are admitted. But the Presbyterians say that the United Church list omits the names of a large number of persons entitled to vote, and their list, which includes the names of all those on the United Church list admitted to be entitled to vote, also contains the names of about 34 others (apart from the names of some who have died since, July, 1924) These additional names are objected to by the United Church, a few of them upon individual grounds, but the greater number upon grounds appli- cable to all, or to cértain groups uf them. : The chief difficulty arises from the loose and careless way in which the Communion or Membership Roll of the church had been kept and treated by the ministers and the Sessions for several years prior to July, 1924." rere (Yer UTICA Don't forget the Concert and dance in Memory Hall, on Tuesday, Jan. 31.
