The •initial stanza found both teams up on the bit and individual rushes were much in evidence but one lone tally made be E. Shaddock of Hensall was the only score. In the second stanza the visitors seem- ed at their best and had the best of the play, managing to score four times before time sounded. In this period the local boys seemed to be taking things easy. The last stanza saw a great comeback by the Hen. - sail Green -and -Whites, when they forced the visitors to a fast pace and outplayed them the full period tally- ing 4 times while the visitors only notched one goal. Thus at the end of the third frame the score stood 5-5 tie. It was agreed to play over- time and after a brief •intermission n the Latest Desiiiis J shortly after the' face eff Hoggarth the teams again took the ice and checked a.Zurich puck chaser, secur- Prices frnin. 10C. to $1.50 ed the , puck, stepped ahead of the PER ROLL cramble, ,passed a Zuricli defense neer and when Walper the goalie r , came leedt--to mete -UM to his rknees and Hoggarth lifted the disc clearly over his head for the score that broke the deadlock. ' It was a pretty play and "Digger" des- erves credit. The teams changed ends shortly Atter the tie was brok- en and -for the last 5 minutes Zurich were played off their feet and Hen- sel slipped in two more, one when Chas. Shaddock took a pass frotu the corner and batted it past Walper, who never saw it till- it was resting quietly behind him in the net. The third goal was the result of a long shot by Bell, which the goalie couldn't see for his team mates until it had bulged the twine. It was a real comeback and the Hensall team deserves credit.

This report wouldy not be complete without making men- tion of the exceptional net minding of McAllister, the Hensell goalie, who, in the initial stanza of the game turned in a stellar perform- ance, and turned away many diffi- cult shots throughout the entire game. This fine goal tending was largely responsible for the inability of Zurich to score in the first frame. The second spasm saw both teams start at a fast clip, each team using subs frequently and both teams tal- lied twice before the bell sounded and• felted Hensel' leading 4-2. The final 20 Minutes of play saw the Hensall team fighting hard to retain their lead, but the Zurich lads seemed a little fresher, due no doubt to constant "subbiug." The home team came through and scored, and the Zurich fans called loudly for an- other goal t� tie the scoee. They tried to comply with thie request and took a side shot at the Hensall goal which hit the goal poet square in the centre and bounced off toward the boards at the side. The Zurich goal umpire got excited and stuck up his hand to signify a score. It was quite obvious to anyone with average optics that the puck never bulged the twine, but the gbal Umpire would not alter his dicision and the ehief nin- pire G.

PROPOSED INCREASE IN TELEPHONE RATES Speaking of the proposed new schedule of rates for telephone ser- vice, which appears in another eolumn of this issue, Manager Sas. `Lawson, of the Bell Telephone Com- pany said: "I am very glad that the new schedule proposes no increase in rate for residence service. This will tend to encourage the development of residence telephones; making the service of the merchant and busi- ness man, for which we are asking an increase, of growing value to , htsrajdenes, eee awe telephones increase. Co reach an al- ways wider circle of householders, and customers. ' "We have delayed our request for a change in rates as long as we pos- sibly could. Nobody' wants a starv- ed telephone service thatwould be injurious to the whole community! We have no alternative but to read- just rates if we are to continue to provide adequate service for present subscribers and. extend our plant to care for new ones. We must do both, of these things if we are to -ful- fil our obligations to the public. "Of course no magic wand has touched the telephone business to defend it from he general increase in prices during recent years. Con- struction costs are double those of a few years ago. We must continue to pay fair wages to the 14,000 men and women who provide your ser- vice to enable them to maintain their customary Standard of living. The cost to us of the intricate ap- paratus we use is largely determin- ed by the higher wages now re- ceived by skilled labor. "Only twice sinde pre war days have our rates been increased -10 per cent. in 1918, and 12 per cent. in 1921. Contrast this with the in- creased cost of almost everything else that enters into the cost of liv- ing to -day and the need for further readjustment of our, rates is not difficult to realize.
