Winners in the northern* group of
the Bru& League. This action
means that South, has to win the
series to contiriue in “A” ball while
to Meaford it means nothing, for re
gardless of the outcome they will
now meet Alienford for the “B” hon

.ceiving pay for same. On searching
these rooms, the cops found sixteen
24-pint cases of Huether’s Blue Top
beer. They also located about fifty
cases of empties of the saihe brand,
from which the contents had been
recently consumed. It developed that
there had been no less than one hun-
^ired cases delivered at the Vendome,
presumably for the occasion.
As a result of the above raid a
^charge of illegally soliciting or .can
vassing for orders by themselves of
their agents was laid against the
Huether Brewery Co. of Kitchener,
Ont., and a charge of selling liquor
under Section 72 of* the Liquor Con
trol Act was lodged against Alex
Lambertus, the proprietor of the
the Vendome.
It was further found'that the one
hundred' cases of beer had been
bought on purchase slips made out
in the riam.es of ten different people
in Teeswater, Culross Township ’ an<^
St. Matys, Ont., ten cases to each
of the alleged purchasers.
At the trial, Charles Hauseriflug

charge of, Illegal canvassing for

costs of $69.10, or a totaj levy of

The charge against Alex I^amber-

liquor on .his premises, arid to which
he pleaded guilty and was mulcted
