When Siebert and Morenz Met in their First Hockey Game On Tuesday oi’ last week Babe Siebert was one of tbe outstanding players in a benefit game for the late Howie Morenz in the Montreal Forum, Siebert, a Zurich boy, play- with the Exeter-Zurich team in 1921 met Morenz for the first time in a game at Stratford. Below we re­ print the accounts of the home and home games played at a time when the Exeter-Zuricih team were top- notchers in the sport. Stratford at Exeter - With the group honors in the O. H. A. Intermediate series safely tucked away, the Exeter-Zurich team made a good bid for honors in the N. H. L. senior group when it put a stop to Stratford’s winning streak by defeating that team 6 to 4 on local ice Monday nigiht. The sudden halt to Stratford’s chain of victories came as a surprise to the visitors, who came over with their best line-up determined to win, Stratford plays Kitchener on Wednesday night to decide whether they win the group honors without a loss or tie-up, which would necessitate another round. They are scheduled' to meet Exeter on Thursday and a win on Monday would _ make the going a little less strenuous. The Stratford sextette have been in the lime-light owing to the big noise thy have been making in tne district. The locals ytook the ,i>ce none too confident and for the first period they seemed stage-struck. The visitors started off strong. They in­ vaded the local territory soon after the face-off. Kelterbourne for Stratford, is the speediest man. seen on local ice in many a season. Within a few minutes after the play com­ menced the shot the rubber disc into the Exeter nets. The first score was soon followed b,y another when Moore brought the puck from behind the nets and in the fumble in front of tfhe goal he scored. It looked ’ikd easy victory for the visitors and they began to take it easy and play on the defensive The fans were feeling a little glum but;they were not down hearted. During the latter part of the first period the home team be­ gan to get their stride and the per­ iod ended 2-0. The second period left little to choose between the two teams. Both teams were on their toes from the face-off. The home team was the first to locate their opponents nets, which was about the middle of the period. The thousand oi' more fans came to life and the din started. A few minutes later, Stratford came back with their third tally. The visitors worked hard and the forwards came down time after time but found the defense im­ pregnable. Meeting the local back­ stops was like running -up against a brick wall and tihe light forwards soon found it out. Rush after rush ended in failure. With several min­ utes yet to go in the middle period on a nice shot from right wing, the puck landed in the Stratford nets just behind tihe post and bounced -out The goal referee lifted his hand half way up. The referee ignored it com­ pletely and the play went on. The crowd was indignant. Such a storm of protest was ihurled at the referee that it was difficult matter for one to hear his own voice. From the press box, that was one thing we saw quite distinctly and we weren’t seeing double either. When t|he goal referee left the ice he was nearly mobbed. He was re­ placed in the third period. In the last period the locals started off strong. They carried the rubber disc rigjht into the Stratford nets at the first draw. They were not long in com­ ing back with another goal and tie- ing the score. In short order the visitors were bewildered and work­ ed off their feet. The Exeter-Zurich team outplayed the visitors from all angles. Only the spectacular work ot Malone in goal saved' the boys from the Classic city from a bad drubbing. S(hot after shot he turned aside. In the second period the lo­ cals shot many times from outside the defense buit Malone cleared them. Twice in .the last period the visitors fell across the puck when it was close to the goal. The locals came from behind and were leading by 2 goals when the visitors scored. In this period tihe locals again scored a goal that the ether goal referee was not certain about and it was not counted. With one minute to play the Exeter-Zurich team scored their sixth goal and Stratford Intermed­ iates went down to their first defeat. The game ‘was the fastest ever played on local ice. There were quite a few penalties for minor of- fnces. In tihe first period the locals drew th‘e big majority buf towards the last the visitors decorated the boards pretty freely. Harness in goal had not many shots on him but Dick is on tihe job and played a strong game. iHindmarsh and Dodo proved to be the same stone-wall defense, iHind­ marsh in the second and third per­ iods played tihe game of his life. He showed the crowd some wonderful stick handling. lHe sure is a mighty handy little fellow on that defence. Dodo, his pal, played a wonderful game. He brought the crowd to their feet time and again with his great check; his long end to end rushes and his great head work. He knows the game and as captain of the team keeps tihe boys on their toes all the time. He has won the heart ot every fan with his good natured smile, and as a clean sport and clever hockey player. His brother, Clar­ ence, at centre, is what we call the boy wonder and tihere is sure no mis­ take about it 'for he always fills the bill. Stratford came to us with two men that are counted the best in Ontario but when they were through vzitffi our little Dodo tihey dod not look so fast. He showed them that he was just as fast or a little faster tlhan they were. He found little trouble in back-checking the gTeat Kelter- bourne and he never lets up for one second. Bertram, on the left wing, played his same strong game and proved that he has more tlhan his poke check. He held his man right in his lhand all through the game and back-checked, well. Robinson on right nan a very busy night. It always falls to Robbie’s luck to have the fastest man for his check and he sure deserves great credit for tihe game he is putting up. He has shown that he can stand all comers, and can hand1 it out with the best of them. 'The longer lhe goes the better we like him. Sei­ bert played sub and had not mucn of a chance but Babe is going very strong and is going to make some one sit up and take notice some of these games. Babe is a dark Ihorse and we are going to spring something with him very soon. Line-up: 'Comments .Stratford Exeter Mialone ........... goal ...........Harness Berger ........r. d...........

It was mostly noise, then more noise and lastly all noise. The heavy end fell on “Fergy.’’ He had to carry home the gate re­ ceipts. Big “Dodo” Hoffman was almost carried off tihe ice by admiring fans. The iStratford team was in good trim and they were trimmed good. Angry Boils Cause Much Misery Colds are prevalent in the com­ munity but all the hoarseness on Tuesday was not due to colds Give to tihe citizens of Exeter and community anything, that is worth while and there is little difficulty inducing them to part with their hard earned coin. The fact is emplhasized that a railroad running east and west giv­ ing Exeter an outlet in these direc­ tions is what is needed to help put this town on the map. It is difficult matter to get in and out of Exetei* by rail. The jam at the door from the time of opening was such as (has only been seen in this section, at^tea meetings and fowl suppers. Never saw such' a crowd waiting to part with a half dollar without getting fed up afterwards. The crowd was so great that the management had to open a back door route tihrough the moving picture theatre. If there had been very many, more standing room would have been at a premium. Exeter at Stratford The Exeter-Zurich hockey team lost the N.H.L. group to Stratford on Thursday last in one of the fast­ est games of hockey played on the Stratford rink this, season. The score was 6-2, .Stratford winning the round by two goals. The fans went down from this community; by special train, about two hundred strong, going .by way of Clinton. It was a jolly bunch of rooters tlhat parted with a lot of hard cash to meet the Grand Trunk financial obligations but few regret­ ted it. The special arrived in .Strat­ ford shortly after seven o’clock and the fans went straight to the rink where a section lhad been reserved if or them. When the players ap- pared on the ice in their green and gold uniforms they were accorded a great reception. In the first period the Exeter- Zuric'h, team struck a fast pace and time after time they shot on the Stratford nets only to be turned aside by Malone in goal. The first goal was scored by iStratford and shortly after, the visiting team scor­ ed and the score tied. The second period was a real bat­ tle and the fans were treated to some brilliant (hockey by both teams. The Exeter-Zurich goal keeper gave a good account of himself and his fast and heady work saved the locals from a worse beating. Twice lie met one of the 'Stratford iforwards lone-handedi and turned the puck after t|h.e defence had been passed. The second period ended with Strat­ ford 2 up in the game and the teams tied on the round. In this round Ber­ tram was injured in the knee and was .forced to retire,- Babe Siebert taking his place. The fans were'at tihe top notch of expectation when the puick was' faced in the period that was to decide the winnei- of |he N. H. L. group. Both teams started strong but the Stratford team show­ ed to the best’ advantage. Morenz at centre for t|he home team played a fast game and was easily the fast­ est on the Strafford team. He was a recruit from the juniors to stren­ gthen the intermediates and he scor­ ed three of the six goals o.f Strat­ ford. The fast pace set by the Exe­ ter-Zurich team 'in the first two per­ iods was not maintained in tihe third. Sid Rankin, of London, a Strat­ ford Old Boy, handled the bell and he showed tlhat his heart was with the old1 town. Exeter-Zuricih. drew the heavy end of the decisions. The fans were a little disappoint­ ed but are far from down-hearted. Tihe game was no disgrace to lose. The line-up was: WOODHAM ,Tlie W.

Quality in fruit is primarily a grower’s pro­ blem, but in the final analysis it is a question of consumei’ preference and therefore a marketing proposi­ tion. Quality begins in the 'orchard or garden and must grow into the fruit, Gradually the fruit increases in size and weight until maturity is reached when the sugar content ■combined with certain acids, flavors and juicy texture reaches” the optim­ um for picking. Then the fruit be­ gins its storage’ life,-~which may be for long, according to variety and as it may be influenced by tempera­ tures and place of storage. Almost each variety has its own peculiar storage life and reaction to treat­ ment. Usually fruit should be pick­ ed just 'before it reaches the peak of maturity to^ripen into the best of eating quality. To pick immature “green” fruit is wasteful and also injurious to> successful marketing. It,has been found that certain fruits increase in weight almost 30 per cent, during the maturity per­ iod. At the same time both colour and size improve, the sugar .content increases, and the fruit actually car­ ries to market in much better con­ dition than does “.green” fruit of same variety. Experiments at the Summerland Experimental Station endeavour to establish standards of maturity for various varieties of iruit. Vagaries of the season are (beyond control, but the natural changes in fruit are indications^ of approaching maturity and serve as guides to picking for quality. Increased sugar content is one important index but recognition of changes in appearance, in colour, in firmness qf texture, as well aa a general knowledge of the variety, are necessary to formulating sound; harvesting recommendations."
