Cornwall ‘Team ls Awarded Hockey Title

M

CORNWALL. Ont, Nov. 27-—(OP) --Cornwall Army was awarded s Quebec Senior Hockey Ileague game with Montreal Army here tonight, following a dispute in which both teams left the ice.

The dispute centred around de- fenccman Pat Egan of Montreal, formerly with New York Amer- icans in the National Hockey League.

Egan had been given a penalty for charging, and referee Denneny boosted it up to a match miscon- duct when man kept right on g?- lnjgktoward the referee, waving is stc .

Lieut. Allan Kuntz of Montreal, who drew a penalty for slashing just before Egan was waved off. drew a misconduct for his part in- the fireworks.

Cornwall was leading 2-0 at the time near the end of the first per- iod that previously had been held up for 30 minues because of an injury to goalie Leaky Boates , of Montreal,

Referee Denneny said he had given the Montreal team one min- ute in which to resume play, af- ter the argument had been going on for some time, and that »Marty Barry. coach of Montreal, had said “all right, go ahead and for- feit the game."

Lex Cook, coach of Cornwall, later turned down a proposal to have a player from each team handle the ame so that it could be complete on the grounds that such a step would "be ignoring the author ty of the referees ap- pointed by the league."

The attempt to resume the game came after team officials had spoken to president George Slater in Montreal by telephone. Slater refused to make a decision pending receipt of the report of the ref- erees. but suggested the teams might get tcgether and finish the game.

Service Teams Meet For Football Title

TORONTO,‘ Nov. 2'7 - (Ci); Two great service teams mee morrow in an Eastern Canada flnfll. thereby setting football plecedent aiid perpetuating the traditions of their great civilian counter-parts.

The teams are Toronto R.C.A.F. Hurricanes and Uplands R.C.A.F. Flyers, the scene is Varsity Stadium and the incentive is football's rich- est plum — a sllot M. Winnlnpeg R. GAIL-Bombers in the Dominion Championship final here Dec. 5.

Hurricanes, slick, strong and con- fident, reached the Dominion semi- final after taking eight victories in 10 Ontario rugb football union lea- gue games an toppling Toronto Baimv Beach 24-0 in a sudden- death league playoff last Wednes- finaldny. Uplands gained the other semi-final bracket by defeating Ot- tawa Rough Riders 9-0 in a city league final a. week ago.

This first meeting between service teams in an Eastern football final also serves to revive the old rivalry between Toronto and Ottawa teams, Monarchs of eastern football since the famous Sarnia Imperiais dis- banded.

The newly formed No. 83 C.A.B. T.C. Orchestra, organized by igt. Ward, and. Lance Cpl B Connolly made its first a dance at H0 y evening.

This dance held by kind per- mission of Lt.-Coi. Andrew, O.C. of the Training Centre was patronized by boys from all. services as well as by a goodly num- ber of civilians.

Those present were enthusiastic about the type of music provided by the boys and expressed the hope that such dances could be held periodically.

11 members of the orchestra with one exception are full time soldiers. eitheras members of No. 62. C.A.B.T.C. staff or as men undergoing training. Positively no time is taken from training hours for practises, all of them are held during evenings. the boys carry on their ctlses with the same zest they put into the job of becoming full fledged members of

mien introduced by administrator‘: orders respecting manufacture and diatribuiion, the price of mixed ferti izers and materials to the farmer; will likely be as low and perhaps lower than last year, this despite the fact that manu- facturers and distributors costs have risen, water freight haul be- come Impossible. and rail freight costs very materially increased.

In order to make the best - lble use of the available suppy of fertilircr materials, to keep man- ufacturing costs down, and make fertilizers available to the farmers at the lowest possible cost, the following formulas have been ap- proved: 0-14-7; 2-12-6; 4-12-6; 4-8-10; 9-5-7.

‘These formulas provide a suf- ficiently wide range for the crops and soils,

Fertiliser Subvention!

In order t0 encourage the ro- duction of feed crops, subvent on: will be continued next year. The a- mount of subventions wlll be based on 30c per unit of nitrogen; 15c per unit of phosphoric acid, and 15c pei- unit of p0tash.

On this bases the fertilizer mix- tures eligible for subventions in the Msritlmes and the amounts payable on each will be: 0-14-7, $3.15 per ton; 2-12-6, $3.30 pcr ton; 4-12-6, 93.90 per ton,

Subventions are being dpaid only on such crop; as are use for feed producing urposes. such as:— pastures. clover, alfalfa, and other hay crops; field corn, and crops to be ll£€d for enailage and green feed; wheat. oats, barley, buck- wheat and other grains; mangels and turnips. In other words, the cro s used for feeding livestock an poultry. The object is to en- cour e the farmers to mduce the essen al food odties. milk, butter, cheese. beef, eggs, poultry pr0ducts. elc., so as to have s suf- ficient suppl for domestic con- sumption an meet Canada's com- mittments for emorts to Britain.

Labor Situation

Another facwr which enters in- to the fertilizer picture and which should be emphasized. is the abso- lute necessity of taking delivery of the fertilizers as soon as possible. The main reason for this is the acute shortage of labor and delay- ed transportation. By staggering the distribution throughout the winter months, it should be poss- ible to deliver all the orders re- quired in the Marltlmes. Otherwise, if farmers delay their orders, chances are there will be a jam at distributing points, which may -ot be overcome before planting time. This happened last year to some extent, and the situation is very much worse this year.
