that Junior and Midget teams also
will be organized.
CHAMPIONSHIP
NOT DECIDED
The Intermediate A O.B.A, champ
ionship has not yet been decided. The
series between Meaford and Chatham
went haywire when Chatham refused
to play at Hanover where' the game
was apparently ordered to be played
by Jack McDonald of Chesley, O. C.
of the O. B. A. for this district. The
teams had each won a game and it
looks now as if the third game will
not be played. Rather an empty title
for either of these teams. If our geo
graphy is right, Clinton would have
split the travelling distance about ev
en but these boys ,up north sure like
their own way. The O. B. A. execu
tive or sub-committee will deal with
the question.

TEMPERANCE GROUP
PROTEST 1LC.A. RULING
County Temperance Federation Want
C, T, A, Enforced
Huron County Temperance Feder
ation, in annual convention at God
erich, Friday, passed a resolution de
scribing as autocratic and intolerable
the action of the Ontario Government
in refusing to abide by the recent On
tario Supreme Court ruling that the
Canada Temperance Act and not the
Liquor Control Act was the law m
force in this county.
“In all ouf experience we never had.
anything like-this before,” declared.
Dr. John Coburn, Toronto. The ex
ecutive was given power to deal with
the situation.
The resolution, passed at the con
clusion of a vigorous address by Dr.
Cobourn, reviews the C.T.A.-L.C.A.
controversy in Huron County, stating
in part:
“Whereas, the Supreme Court of
Canada and the Privy Council have
decided that despite the suspension of
the Canada Temperance Act from
1916 to 1927, the C.T.A. is now in
force in this county, And,
“Whereas, the Supreme Court of
Ontario, in a recent judgment decid
ed that the C.T.A. was a valid law
and within the competence of Domin
ion Parliament,” and
“Whereas, these decisions are bind
ing on every judge, magistrate and
law officer in this provcince.” And.
"Whereas, beer being sold in viola
tion of the law,
“Resolved that this convention de
clare that the issuance and continu
ance of authorities to sell beer in this
county by the Ontario Liquor Board
constitute an automatic and intoler
able defiance of the law.
“That, by permitting the board un
der this authority to act in this way,
the Government of Ontario is aban
doning one of the most important
functions of Government, it is false
to British traditions of respect for law
and such action is subversive of law,
order and good government.
“This convention, therefore, calls
upon the Government of Ontario: (1)
To order its liquor board to cancel
the illegal authorities to sell beer in
this county; (2) That Attorney-Gen
eral Conant at once take necessary
steps to secure a vigorous and effect
ive enforcement of the Canada Temp
erance Act in this county.”
A second resolution passed called,
upon the Dominion Government to
pass such restrictive liquor legislation
at the start and during the progress,
of the war necessary to insure the
achievement of victory.
About 100 delegates from all sec
tions of the county attended the con
vention, presided over by W. G.
Medd, ex-M. L. A., who was re-elect
ed to the presidency. There was
much sharp criticism of the Govern
ment’s action in continuing to permit
the open sale of beer.
The new officers are:
President, W. G. Medd, Exeter;
vice-presidents, Richard Lloyd, Wing
ham, Mrs. George Johnston, Goder
ich; secretary-treasurer, Rev. W. P.
Bremner, Seaforth; chairman of leg
