This year the prospects of the lo. cal soptctte look exceedingly bright and, with practically all of last year’s team on hand and the usual contribution of good youngsters con- tinually coming on, it is felt that the chances of putting a good team on the ice were never better. this working through their minds, it is little wonder that thoughts turned to the reorganization of 'the hockey team. With a display of northern lights Monday night of this week, a sure indication of cold weather to follow, no doubt players and fans both had visions of the colder weather due here next December. the opening of the rink for the winter season and the long, lonesome evenings until next spring, broken only b the ex«- citement of an occasiona hockey game, skiing or_ snomjshoeeing.
