Georgetown Wins Opening Game Of Semi-Finals

The first game of the Southern King's best-of-three, -semi-finals between Georgetown Eagles and Murray Harbour Bruins. with the winner) to meet Montague. was played in the Georgetown Rink on Wednesday night and the Eagles won a convincing '7-3 win to take a commanding lead in the series. The next game is scheduled for Thursday night at Murray Harbor. with the third. lf necessary at Georgetown on Saturday. Wednesday's game was easily the best played here this season and the players hit a very fast clip throughout the entire three periods. Hard ice made for gqod puck carrying and many good combination plays were executed. The game was clean with only one penalty being handed out. The goalkeeplng was outstanding on both teams. McKay in the Bruins net was called on to stop much more rubber than Stevens and the seven goals which passed him were all labelled and of the im- oossiblb-to-stop variety. The outstanding line of the night was the Eagles line of A. Landry, S. McNeiil and F. Landry, who accounted for six of thetseven Eagles counters. The first period ended one to nothing for the winn- er on a pretty break-away goal by Stevens at the 19.57 mark. The middle session ended 3 to 2 for the Eagles as each team countered once. In the final frame the locals really went to Town, and notched four pretty goals to their oppon- ents one. Referees were: Walter walker and R. Lavers both of Georgetown.

Mr. Grant: "This is the first time that I have availed my- self of the privilege of speaking in this historic Chamber. and as it has been said that brevity is the soul. not only of wit but of wisdom, try to govern myself ac- cordingly. ' "I wish at the outset to compli- ment the newly-elected Sonata: for Newfoundland (Hon. Mr. Pratt) who spoke so ably in this house on Thursday last Mrs. Grant and I visited Newfoundland two years ago and we returned home with many pleasant manories of the good nature, humo and hospital- ity of the people of that wonderful Province. 1 wish also to extend my sincere gratulations to the mover and the seconder of the Ad- dress in reply to the speech from the Throne. "The address of the move: was very interesting, educational and persuasivei indeed, had one not known better. one might have been led to believe that Alberta is a finer Province than Prince Ed- ward Island. I read the address of the seconder; and, having list- ened in the past twenty years or more to many speeches on similar occasions. I am convinced that it is up to the highest standard of ad- dresses of this kind.

Not. A Reformer

"Perhaps, on account of my age and waning ambition, I did not

repeat something which I .hsve said on several occasions-that it is a shame that the Speaker and his lady should be obliged to stand for hours shaking hands with the hundreds of people who attend their receptions. The practice has come down. I suppose, from the days when bherrwere no chairs. and people either sat on the ground or stood up. Surely this primitive practice might be chang- ed by providing cushioned chairs and nice footstools so that the Speaker and his wife could shake hands in comfort with people as they pass by.

"Though I do not want in dis- cuss the reform of the senate. be- cause on this occasion it might be

But just one year be- fore my last election bhe conserva- tives very vwlsely persuaded my old opponent. whom I was accustomed to defeating. to retire. I under- stand they promised to put him in the senate if their party gained power. He was a good man. and well worthy of the d tinction. My new opponent was a young man, a native of my constituency. and a member of one of the very best families. His word is as good as his bond in any part of the Pro- vince. He is an honest lawyer.'.'

Hon. Mr. I-Islg: "Hoorayl" some Hon. senators: "Hear. hear." Hon. Dr. Grant: "Were I in trouble I would engage him as my lawyer. However, he was nomin- ated to run agafnst me, and while I was here in ottsrwa at the sea-
