What does The Sun mean in the first two sentences of the above"? We are not a mind reader and may be mistaken. but we take it that there is only one reason why no more Weilands. Cains, etc. will grace the orange and black uni- forms of the Owen Sound team. and that is that the salaries paid are too high to admit of the suc- cessful financing of the team. In other words. a winning team, even in Owen Sound with its 12000 pOpu- lation will not pay for itself. A winning team has to be bolstered up ‘with brought-in players. and brought-in players must be paid. Which means that the whole team and those who compete against them. according to the C.A.H.A.. automatically become profession.- als. “’6 are very glad that Owen Sound has seen the error of her ways even if a flat. pocketbook was the first intimation she had of the. existing conditions. We don‘t know of anything better than a fair-sized deficit for a few years to make for Simon-pure amateurism. and now that the Scenery City has decided to crawl down with the rest of us and play all-home talent. perhaps we will be able to have a few games in the years to come. With a home-brew team Owen Sound may not go so far in hockey. but we’ll guarantee she'll have a whole lot better time. That is. unless she has acquired ,the pernicious habit of the United States that "to win’s the thing and not the game." Amongst the higher-ups in hockey teams in this province the only difference between a profes- sional and an amateur team is that the. former is paid by cheque. The latter gets. his "around the corner” somewhere when nobody is looking. "There will he no more import- ing hockex talent to Owen Sound. Am Weilands, Cains, Callighens McDougalls or Lauders that will grace orange and black outfits in the future will be home boys \\ ho haxe learned the game from the ground up right here. There is no need for importing anyway. Sev- eral of 1928 Greys are eligible for next season and a number of boys who performed in the Junior City League are ready for the faster company next season. It will take time to, develop a championship team. but when the time comes, the fans are going to have a real year. Local boys have starred on the two Canadian championship teams to date. but the next time the mem- orial Cup is brought to Owen Sound it will be carried on the shoulders of Owen Sound boys.” We have. of course... no intention of insinuating that. anyone is a thief, for in the past few years Owen Sound. who have been bles- sedxwith two Dominion champion- ships. and went into the.finals in one or two more. have been no more. guilty of breaking the amateur rule than any other outstanding team in the province. Ounconten- tion all along has been that no team that is not padded up with paid players can hope to get anywhere in either hockey or lacrosse. In other words. there is not a team playing “amateur” today that ever got anywhere in the O. H. A. that is not in reality professional.

Though he had been ailing since shortly after Christmas, the condi- tion of Mr. David Leith, a former resident of Normanby Township and a resident of this town since 1919. was not thought to be serious until Tuesday of this week when he took a sudden turn for the worse and passed 'away yesterday after- noon shortly after the dinner hour. Mr. Leith had been confined to his home more or less this winter but was thought improving in health until his sudden relapse. Death was due‘to heart failure. The late ‘Mr. Leith spent the whole of his life in this neighbor- hood He was born in 1857 on the 20th Concession of Egremont Town- ship on the homestead now occupied by his brother William. He grew to young manhood here and in 1883 was married to Miss Isabel Nelson. They commenced farming on the property opposite his old home and remained here for fifteen years. In 1898 they moved to the farm on the mm of Normanby near Barber‘s Corners and remained here until 1919 when they disposed of this property to Mr, William Porter and moved to town, purchasing the Frank Lenahan property two doors south of the Ford garage, where they remained ever since. At time of writing this Wednes~ day night funeral arrangements have not been completed, but it is expected that the funeral will be held Friday afternoon from Knox church, and interment made in the family plot at Amos cemetery, Dromore. “Well. now look here.
