Toronto (By in Augustus Bridle Dally Star) Cc. F. Thiele, president of the On- tario Bands Associatt or of the Waterloo Society Band, said yesterday by telephone from Waterloo he thought tho dand lead- ers and bandsmen who protested competition made a poor display of sportsman- 6. No doubt some of them are right in criticizing some of the actual ad- judicationa,”” he said. “I criticized some of them myself. But on top of that to suggest that any adjudicator played favorites by finding out In advance the names of the bands playing at any given time is some- thing to be fought to a finish at the ascociation meeting on October 10th. Local dissatisfaction jin various ,Ontario towns over the Cc. N. E. “awards was the cause of this first open revolt of Ontarlo bands against the Exhibition. It came to a head first in a wired message from God- erich to The Star Indicating some of the Exhibition awards were not in accordance with the findings. of Lieut. ageing the eoorg oe 2 Class C, wh eclared that elsions on Gen €2 bands mas L the trombone contest were directly reversed by the officials who awarded the prizes. The London correspondent of 7” Star interviewed Lieut. Harrison, bandmaster there, and composer of “In Flanders Fields.” sung this year by the Exhibttion chorus. He was quoted at having sald that his de- cisions were reversed in the award and as having expressed certain opinions about some of the bands which were evidently at variars9 with his marks In the adjudicaf sti. On September 6th the Listowel Banner took up the cudgel on behalf of the Listowel band whieh, he con- tends, should have been among the winners In Class C2, partly on the evidence of a eaford bandsman, who helped to win the first prize, and who during the contest told the Listowel should be among the winners. The treasurer of the Mount Forest band also wrote to the Listowel editor, say- ing: "You certainly got a bad break at the Exhibition, We figured you at least for second place." In reply to a wire from The Star the editor, on behalf of the band leader and president, of the band, says Listowel! will not again compete at the Exhibition for specific reasons aa follows: The drawing for places In Class C2 took place at 11, but Clase C Was not called until 1.30. In the meantime, at luncheon, from the talk of various bandsmen, there was ample time for the judge to learn! in what order the different bands! would play. Listowel contends the contest should immediately follow ‘the draw so that the judge in his tent would have no knowledge of which band was playing at any moment, and the judge should make hia own announcement, instead, as In this case, of allowing that to be done by Mr. Thiele. The statement is also made that in Class C the Wrong test pleces were sent to both Port Dover and Beamsville and they did not get the right one unt!il a few days before the contest, in spite of which the Port Dover band got sec- ond place, Capt. Atkinson, manager of the bureau of music, which had charge of music day, when band contests are held, told The Star that the ad- judjtator’s opinions about certain bands, when at variance with his own markings, cculd not be taken as affecting the awards whith were made on the adjucation marks filone, as provided in the rules of the contest. He also quoted the cus- tomary rules of ajll such contests as to the adjudicas ving no per- sonal knowledge’of wh ands were , knowing ar ; Follcwing publication of the orig- inal article in the Star of Friday, A.
