The return of Bedard and Mackie to the Weston defence strengthenâ€" ed the Weston team for their final drive. The ouutandin{vstnr of the series was Whipper Watson, the Weston goaltender. Young Watson turned in a remarkable exhibition in the third game, stopping many shots that were labelled goals. On the offensive, Wilf Chard, Longâ€" house, Mackie, Bedard, Murray and Danny Russell stood out. The Weston team now awaits the group finals which will probably start Thursday evening, Sept. 2. The Weston Juveniles went one up in their series against Scarboro with a decisive 8â€"2 win. Fink Chard éwas again outstanding in the winner‘s net, ably assisted bJ' Mort Gauley, Austin Harris, Ed. Calhoun, Doug. Chapman and Ron Hurst. The juveniles turned in their best effort of the season and deserved their win. \ _ Reynold Bedard, Midgetâ€"Star of last year‘s Bantam team, Beâ€" | dard stepped u&) into Midget ranks \this season and is again outstandâ€" ing. Tall and rangy, fast of foot, |even temperament, this athlete ‘handles himself like a veteran. | Well up among the scoring leaders, Bedard also turns in a sound game on the defence. He has another year of Midget and will no doubt develop into a real star. He is a good allâ€"round athlete participatâ€" ‘irn;:din rugby, hockey, track and ield. The Weston Bantams lost a tough game at the Sunnyside Dust Bowl to St. Vincents who squared their semiâ€"final series one game each. Weston held a 4â€"1 lead at half time, but wilted in the last half due to lack of substitutes. The third and final game will be played at Sunnyside after the paper goes to press. _ Roy Handy, Bantamâ€"In his first season at lacrosse, Roy has been given the difficult task of checking the stars on the opposâ€" ing teams and has come through ‘in fine style. On the rugged side, ‘he is one of the hardest checkers |in Bantam lacrosse. Roy is also \ well up with the scoring leaders and in the local league he won the most valuable player award. _A good teram player, Roy figures in | the plans of future Weston lacrosse teams. Murrey Gauley, Juvenileâ€"This season Murrey is pla‘i’ing his best lacrosse, always noted as a strong checker, Murrey came through with two fine scoring efforts in an allâ€" important \?layoff game against Scarboro. Young Gauley is a wellâ€" built lad, who hands out some of the stiffest checks in the Juvenile series, has plenty of desire and when he brushes up on his stick handling will become a topâ€"notch player. Personalities of the Week Ed Calhoun, Juvenileâ€"First seaâ€" son at lacrosse, young Calhoun has improved to a point where he is considered one of the valuable cogs in the Juvenile machine. Ed is still a little weak in his stick handling but makes up for this with his dash and spirit on the field. Calhoun was also a member of the Weston AC‘s good Junior OHA hockey team last season. Len Galloway, Juvenileâ€"Second season as a Juvenile, Len is an underâ€"rated player who continually turns in good games. A real good checked, good stick handler, Len is the work horse of whatever line he plays with. Not a high scorer, but‘the man he checks is also held from the score sheet. Galloway will have no trouble stepping up. to the Junior ranks next season. Biting the finger nails is not only a bad habit that irritates others but is also a danger® to health, according to national health authorities. In the same category are the habits of fingering the face with such objects as money, paper, pens and pencils.

Fingertip Infections LACROSSE POTâ€"POURRI by LLOYD MILLER Those zanies of the show world, Olsen and Johnston, are at it again. They‘ve brought their screamlined revue, Laffacade of 1948, to the Canadian National Exhibition, where they appear nightly at the ultraâ€" modern $3,000,000 grandstand (which is a spectacle in itself). In addiâ€" tion to Olsen and Johnson, there‘s a cast of 150, 42 lovely dancers, specialty acts of every kind, a chorus, a 60 piece orchestraâ€"all on the world‘s most gigantic and most brilliantly lighted stage. And every night some luciy spectator will win, absolutely free, a brandâ€"new autoâ€" mobile (Chevrolet). Yes, 14 latest model sedans will be drawn for, and every one of. the spectators has an equal chance to win one. With Sid Lovelace filling Red Hartley shoes in the Weston nets, and not doing a bad job of it eithâ€" er, Weston went down under the Owen Sound attack to the tune of 16â€"4 in Monday nights game here. The score gives no indicaetion of what the game was like however, for the Weston senior crew gave the league leading Owen Sound team a run for their money, and there is no doubt that with a moreâ€" experienced goalie in the nets, the score would have read a little differently. For a lad who has never stepped between the uprights before, Loveâ€" lace did a great job, and although beaten sixteen times he saved twice as many, and received round after round of applause from the 300â€"0dd spectators. His spirit was e\:]:rticu‘lar]y evident, when the eston crew was playing short handed, and more than once Sid went out of the nets to retrieve the loose pill. â€" The gameâ€"did not lack Jor exâ€" citement, for in ‘the third period, Billy Fitzgerald, referee was the recipient of one solid punch on the eye delivered by a fiostile specâ€" tator. This came as a result of Fitzgerald throwing Vipond out of the game for misâ€"conduct, and for the remainder of the . tilt, the crowd viciously booed Fitzgerald every time he called a decision. 16â€"4 Win For Sounders Blackâ€"Eye For Referee In Senior Tilt Here _ Frank Allewell, Don Ashbee and Howie Venner: proved to be the most effective players on the deâ€" fence, piling into the Owen Sound attackers time after time, and repelling them from their own zone. Allewell‘s single goal of the night came after he checked Gillesâ€" pie hard in the Owen Sound zone, picked up the loose ball, and broke into the clear to score unassisted. Cruickshank, Dormey and veteran Freddie Hatton each scored once. Owen Sound gained a 3â€"0 lead in the first period, and rapped in two more before a half minute had passed in the second frame, Wesâ€" ton tightened the count to 5â€"2 when Cruickshank and Allewell scored, but Owen Sound pulled away once again and led 7â€"2 at half time. The visitors added four more in the third, and five in the final session while Weston scored but twice. First Period 1. Owen Sound, Gillespie (Johnson)y ... mages.

Smith, TIMES AND GUIDE,WESTON Ts Weston Jennis Member:})Play In Semiâ€"Finals On Wednesday and Friday of last week, Weston‘s senior lacrosse crew played two games, the first with Mimico and the second with St. Catharines, and in both instances came out with defeats. imico Mounties broke lose with s1 oals in the third period of Wedhesday night‘s tussle to finally come out in front with a 21â€"13 score. Weston held their own durâ€" ing the first half and going into the third period the count was tied at eight all. In the last 30 minutes Mimico rapped in thirteen tallies while Weston were held down to five. St. Catherines Mimico Defeat Weston Seniors Gordon Gair, making his first| appearance with Weston this seaâ€" son, lived up to his fine reputation, coming up with a sparkling fourâ€" goal effort. Gair proved himself to be effective on the defence also and was easily Weston‘s most[ effective player. The Cruickshankâ€"| Dorneyâ€"Ashbee line continued their | great teamâ€"work, accounting fnr] most of the remaining goals beâ€"| tween them. | For the winners, Don McPhail,| Ken Dixon, Bill Rankin, Chuck| Simpson and Jack Williams starred | by popping in the six counters in! the third period, all within t\vn‘ minutes of action. | St. Kitts 14, Weston 6 | St. Catharines gave Weston their second defeat of the week and applied the clincher to second place when they downed the Weston lads, 14â€"16, in a senior ‘tilt at St. Catharines. Although the Saints led all the way, Weston put up a fine show and were much improvediin regards to passing and shooting over their last home game here in town. Tough breaks and shortage of relief players accounted gencrally for the loss. St. Kitts took a 5â€"8 lead in the first period, stretched it to 8â€"4 at half time and were leading 11â€"6 going into the final session. . Jack Dorney led the Weston scorers with three goals to his credit while Jimmy Gray and Benny â€" Harris each _ picked up singles. _ Fink Chard, . replacing Hartley in the nets, turned in a A number of local tennis enâ€" thusiasts, who are members of the Weston Tennis Club, are playing, in spite of hot and humid:atmosâ€" pheric conditions, in the Open Tournament _ of _ the â€" Lakeshore League.

Club Relaxes On Corn Roast At Barbecue Friday Weston‘s Midget hard ball team were knocked out of the OBA playâ€"downs . by the Newmarket nine, last Saturday at Gibson Park by a close 11â€"10 score. The game was a hardâ€"fought struggle all the way through, with the Weston team holding a slim margin until the eighth inning,. when Newâ€" market scored three runs on three hits and a walk to take the lead and hold it to the end. Red Wilson was the heavy hitâ€" ter on the Weston team getting 3 hits in five times at bat, with one a long threeâ€"bagger which Red tried to stretch into a home run. However a fast relay by the Newâ€" market outfield nipped Red at the plate, Wilkins for Newmarket hit a homeâ€"run and a single to head the outâ€"ofâ€"town boys.

What immediate business effect may be expected when Newfoundâ€" land joins Canada? Prince Edward Island atppears most optimistic as to the effect which union of Newâ€" foundland with Canada, would have on trade conditions, according to answers to a Financial Post quesâ€" tionnaire. Several other maritimers saw _ fewer â€" benefits â€" resulting. Abolition of present Newfoundland tariffs against Canadian goods, might create a wider market; but some observers predicted that the Island might find it necessary to impose new ‘ixes, in lieu of its customs revenues; and that these taxes would curtail Newfoundâ€" landers‘ spending power.
