protest may also "be•made on Mon-
day's game as both men performed
for Kinburn again. As the Stratford
players were motoring up for 'the
battle their bus ran into a heavy
downpour of rain between Dublin
and Seaforth but only a drizzle fell
in Kinburn. The opening period and
the first half of the second stanza
were played in a light drizzle which
made the: ball heavy.The Kinburn
players found the sloppy going more
to their liking than the visitors, as.
they outweigh the losers to a man,
but the victors had the edge on the
night's play and would have won in
any kind of going, Ken. Murray, the
goalie of the Stratford eleven, saved
many hard shots and it was mainly

that Mitchell did not come: and the

the rain until after one o'clock in

Oa Friday night Mitchell came
over and brought their people along

b crowds. While the crowd was not
as large as early in the week, the
fun was fast and furious. The band
came over and was followed by the
gaily decorated float which was per-
haps the nicest feature of the week.
'rhis float must have taken time and
money to prepare, It was built an a
motor truck and rivalled the old
Roman chariot. Electrician Ord is
to be congratulated on his. work.
Lighted by 300 electric bulbs and
gracefully decorated with bunting
and flags and loaded with pretty,
graceful girls, it drew ouch attention
as it worked its way up or down the
streets. The girls sang sweetly: many
old and new songs. The parade was.
met at the edge of the town by the
Seaforth Highlanders and the first
ohiective was the Memorial; where,
while her court sang "0 Canada."

The parade then headed•by the bands
and flankedby a number of clowns,
escorted the float to the town hall,
where Mayor Golding eloquently wel-
comed theta. Mayor Cameron repled
and then for hours the two towns
mingled in a real carnival. Street
dances, songs and every . form of
hilarity lasted until early morning.

to about half the -usual crowd but
there were in the neighborhood of
300, fans on hand for the struggle and
they cheered as though they were
watching an Olympic soccer contest,
The Kinburn playing field is about
the largest in the province and while
the locals found the Stratford field
last week a little small they found
the Kinburn field somewhat larger
than the fields they have been per-
forming on during the season.
Stratford kicked off and carried
play down to the Kinburn back line,
hut the harvesters engineered a rush
from there and carried the ball down
the field with some nice combination
work. Murray in goal cleared two
shots in rapid succession, but Geddes
scored fof•the barber poles on a low
shot, which went in at the corner.
The counter was notched within the
first two .minutes of play.
Good football was the order of the
clay and play ranged up and down the
patch as the two event matched
teams battled for supremacy. The
Kinburn forward line was working
together to perfection. Stratford's
first dangerous try was made by
Butcher, at left outside, who sent in
a fast travelling shot which caromed
off the goalie's leg after giving the
Kinburn fans heart failure for a,mo-
ment as bore straight on the posts

width of the field was too much for
