A CORRECTION
In announcing the appointment of
the new postmaster last week The
News -Record stated that the appli
cant appointed was the "choice of the
local Legion branch." We understood
that this was the case, biit apparent-
ly it was ,not. We regret that this ma
ror was made, The News -Record en-
deavors to get the truth of the mat-
ter at all times, but occasionally a
slip is made and we cheerfully make
amends. Following is part of a let-
ter received from the Legion secre-
tary:
"As six of the applicants were
members of the local Branch • of the
Legion it was considered advisable
to take no official action and none ef
the applicants at any time requested
the'endorsation of the local Legion
branch.
Absolutely no criticism of the ap-
pointment was voiced but, out of
fairness to the other applicants, 'a
motion was carried (at the meeting of
the Legion) requesting The News -
Record to correct the aforementioned
statement in the next issue of the
News -Record."

ker, Brussels, and Mrs. John B. Stew-,
art, Clinton.
On the occasion of his one hun-
dredth birthday a family gathering
was held at Mrs. Dunbar's at Bel-

nett and from Rt. Hon. W. L. Mc-
Kenzie King, 0. A, Robertson, M.L.A.,

Saskatoon in 1932. Realizing the
importance of Yorkton as the logical
point to serve northeastern Saskat-
chetvan, as well as north-west Mani-
toba, it was decided to open a branch
in Yorkton. At Yorkton, there will
be a complete stock of automotive
accessories, parts, tools and equip-
ment and Rogers radios., Herbert

sentative and executive of the com-
pany for eighteen years, is the man-

CLINTON ELIMINATES MITCHEL
,In the second. game of the first
round of the play-offs, Clinton, be-
hind some very nice pitching by Bob
Carrick, took the game and wound
up the• series in two straight. The
score was 6.3 for Clinton. Carrick
pitched nice ball, and with the aid of
his team-mates outclassed the visi-
tors in every phase of the game.
The first inning was scoreless, but
Mitchell filled the bases in their
half of the second and came through
Ivith their only tallies of the game.
They scored three runs •on five hits,
The next inning was scoreless, but
the' homesters carie to life in their
half of the fourth, when they scored
four big runs and went into the lead,
Which they never relinquished
throughout the rest of the game.
Johnson, McDonald and Pickett got
on bases and Hawkins drove'a_ long
fly into centre feld for a double and
scored the three runners, Carrick then
singled and Hawkins crossed the plate
to break the tie. They scored a run
in the fifth and sixth and were only
in serious trouble once, in the first of
the eighth, when the bases were load'-
ed with only one out, but Carrick
took things in his own heads.. He
threw to MCEwan and caught a run-
ner coming 'home, fanned the next
one, but McEwan got one on the end
of the finger, loosening the finger.

the rest of the game. Hovey took his
