DURHAM, ONTARIO, CANADA, THURSDAY, APRIL 21, SUMMER WEATHER ‘ ' FOR PAST WEEK April of 19.27 has, so far. been the most remark-able within the know- ledge of this «’ztivuntry. so far as we can learn, as regards the heat and dry weather conditions prevailing. Withl the snow all gone by the first of the month, and motoring general for the past three weeks, it is d to realize that so short a time as elapsml since the sleighs and cutters were the only sure modes of transportation.

Sunday. Monday and Tuesday. the heat was of the mid- summer variety and quite oppres- sive and close. Mercury Dropped Tuesday About 9 o’clock Tuesday night a real midsummer electric storm came. up out ’of the south-west and, ac- compnied with wind and a del- uge of rain that lasted for about an hour cooled things off some- what. During the night the therâ€" mometer dropped to 39. and while it rose to 73 during Wednesday a north wind made it 3ppear quite cold to those on the street. Hydro Was 01! The Windstorm that accompanied the rain caused considerable havoc in the country roundabout hut Durham escaped any serious dam- age. the. worst being the snapping of the hydro lines near the sun-sta- tion and putting the town in darkâ€" ness for two or three hours.

The general opinion was that it was harder to be a good sport. when you lost. as any team could win gracefully. While the Durhams had lost. out. in the final game ’with 'l‘avistork it was gener- ally felt that the wmntng goal had been scored in the game here but was disallowed by the referee, who over-ruled the goal umpire and at- terwards stated that he did not see the play. The players sprung a surprise on the audience and Lance MeGirr, who has guided the destiny ”f the team for the past two or three. seasons when they railed him forward and presented him with a linger rim: as a trikeli of their amireriatiun of his good work as manager.
