Board will sponsor an exhibition
lacrosse game next Monday ’be

sehs.
Lacrosse is derived from the
Indian game “Baggataway” mean
ing ball game. Since it was
played with a curved stick with
a bag knitted in it made of ani
mal gut. To the early French
the shape of the stick looked
like a cross and they called the
game Lacrosse from the French
word “crosse" meaning cross.
The game originally was used
to train Indian warriors, as
many as 500 taking part.
Goals were pt this time from
400 yards to five miles apart, A
ball was tossed in the air by the
Indian chief, the man catching it
would run as far as he could
without being brought down. It
was a game of endurance lasting
two or three days. It was decid
ed (before game time how many
goals would constitute a game
and the team that reached this
number first was the winner.
Games consisted in score rang
ing from 10 to 100 goals,
medicine men kept score.

Baggataway was played

In 1867 year Confederation a
Montreal club drew up a set of
rules. At a convention at Kings
ton in this year these were
adopted and the game recognized
as Canada’s national game. Geo.
W. Bell, a dentist, was its
organizer. The playing field was
reduced to 100 yards and 12

One reason sugar -beets are

fit sugar beets have ever been

50 years the industry has oper

There has never been a surplus
of sugar beets. In fact, 500,000
tons of cane sugar is imported
from the tropics annually to
meet Canada’s needs.
There is always a ready mar
ket for sugar since it is a neces
sary calory food in the Canadian
diet. Each year Chatham and
Wallaceburg plants produce
about 100 million pounds of re
fined sugar of the highest qual
ity and could produce much
more.
