Opposition to the. $900 fee, which ,was supposedly based on actual cost, arose at the b5aard's first October meeting when D. J. Murphy of Goderich mentioned that two or three hockey players were being "imported" from New Brunswick and. said the hockey club in Goderich could not afford , to pay the "shot" _ required by the board. There was mentioned also a case of, a girl moving from another city to live with her grandparents in Huron and having to pay the full $900. It was said this week that very few such cases arise. •
