Quite a crowd attended the meet- ingof the hockey Club held in the Council' Chamber on Monday night, Mr, W. J. Duncan took the chair and reported a successful season last year, the intetmediates; winning their group, and also that finances were in a satisfactory shape. Mr: R. N.

Duncan, Dalton Reid, H. Johnston; trainer, W. Hart; coach, Dalton Reid, In all probability both intermediate and junior teams will be entered in the O.H.A.

WELL RECEIVED, The play, "All on Account of Polly,"'. was given to a good crowd in the town hall, Clinton, last Thursdar evening by the Young People's League of the Seaforth Methodist church. It is slated for ;Mitchell on November 25th; Varna, November 26th, and !dalton, No- vember 28th. ST, PATS. GRAB REG. REID. Reg. Reid left on Wednesday morning to join the St. Pats hockey team of Toronto for the winter. The hockey boys were sorry to see him go as he was one of the "good ones," the product of home training which gave Seaforth some real sport in the past. The hail and Empire of Wednesday has the following to say of Reg: "Reid was ,expected out and Powers was disappointed Over him not putting in an appearance, but the Seaforth boy, who is in the bank in his home town, has been. granted Four months' leave of absence, brit is unable to get away until a man ar- rives from Toronto to take his place, However, he wired the Irish man- agement that he would be on hand for to -days workout. Reg. Reid is fast on his skates and Eddie Powers is confident that he will go big with tine Irish. Powers likes the players who are speedy skaters, and he is continually at the members of his squad to tet themselves out. Skate, skate, skate is his cry," The same paper of Thursday last said: "St. Patrick's increased their hock- ey squad to 13 players when Man- ager Eddie Powers was successful yesterday in signing Reg. Reid, .of Seaforth. Reid, who was born and raised in Seaforth, and played all his hockey there with the exception of the season of 1921 and 1922, when he was with Port Colborne, is a cracking good forward, one of the smartest front-line men in the inter- mediate O. H. A. series last season, and is the big reason why Seaforth succeeded in winning its group eham. pionship, He' played centre for the Highlanders last winter, but when wtih Port Colborne worked of the left rail, and proved a fast, hard - checking wing man, with a mighty goon shot. Reid does not come to St. Pat's with the reputation enjoyed by Hooky Smith and Dunc Munro, and Morenz when he busted into tate pro. game, but nevertheless, he should prove a real useful man ,for the Trish. Eddie Powers was coach of Port Colborne when Reid played with that team, and always looked upon the Seaforth boy as a better player than "Red" Green, who was With Port Colborne at the same time YOUNG PEOPLE'S LEAGUE. Tuesday evening's League meeting was in charge of the citizenship de- partment.. A piano selection was given by Miss Eleanor Burrows. The topic "Amos, the Farmer Prophet," was given by Mrs. A. L.
