WRITES R. A. BALMER,
General Manager of a large Toronto
furniture company. After driving my new
Oldsmobile 8 in winter weather and over roads
unusually rough, I find you were very conservative
in your recommendations, for the *Hydra -Matic Driv
certainly the smoothest thing in mechanism that I have
ever experienced. I am really proud of this car, and for
driving comfort, ease of handling, and general road -worthiness
I can only say I'm glad I bought an Oldsmobile. I made th
smart choice."
And that's just an excerpt from one of the many, many letters sent
in by Oldsmobile owners—letters that repeat again and again,
"There's nothing else like it in driving! Its smart looking , , .
smart handling ... and the' new *G1'I15FIydra-Matic Drive
is the smartest way of driving yet devised."
sr
Yes . people who choose Oldsmobile make the smart
choice ... for Oldsmobile ie the smart buy of the year.
To you who aro waiting foryour new Oldemobiles
—our thanks for your patience.... our tribute
to your wisdom. The demand for Oldsmobile
with the new *GM Hydra -Made Drive
§, is to widespread that it still greatly
exceeds the supply. Make sore your
present car carries you conveniently
and safely throughthe waiting
�,'::o-•.,, , period by having it serviced
regularly by your
Oldsmobile dealer,

ST. COLUMBAN
Staving off a desperate Brussels
onslaught, after scoring a goal at
10:33 of the second half, to break a
one all tie, St. Columban earned the •
right to meet Walton in the finals of.
the Huron Football League, by . de-
feating the visiting. eleven .here Fri-
day evening, 2-1. The game was a
replay of a former one, which the
Irish had won 4-0,• •after the two
teams had battled ,to a scoreless
draw in the first game at Brussels.
Late arrival of both teams,' es-
Pecially Brussels, 'delayed the start
of the game until 8 o'clock, and
when the final whistle sounded it
was exactly 9:05, and overtime
would have been impossible. How-
ever, the ardent fans, and 'there must
have been 600 of them present,
were well repaid for their wait, be-
cause both elevens turned in a good
brand ofsoccer, although St. Colum -
ban was passing the ball around too
touch when within scoring range,
thereby nullifying several - great
chalices to cage the ball.
The first half was just past the
20 -minute mark when ,Tim O'Connor
put the Irish one goal to the good,
accepting Pat O'Sullivan's pass and
giving Charlie Riley in the Brussels'
goal no chance to save en his low
shot to the corner.
The ball had just been faced when
Brussels carried into the .Irish goal
zone on the first attack after the
opening goal, and Toni McCutcheon
put the teams on even terms with a
prettychive that Goalie Murray-
could
urraycould not get near with a diving
attempt to save.
Numerous foul lacks were called
by Referee "Fish" Hemp of Listowel
for minor offences, and he handled
a good game, but none of the kicks
proved very dangerous. The Saints
had an edge in the first half, but it
was anything but great.
After the sides had changed ends,
both teams staged some dangerous
attacks, with the result that Riley
and V. Murray, the opposing goalies,
were called upon to puII off some
real saves.
Near the 17 -minute mark of the
second half, with St. Columban en-
joying the better of the play and
keeping the ball in Brussels' terri-
tory for minutes on end, the honle-
sters were finally rewarded with the
big counter, after several players
had dribbled the pigskin in close,
Pat O'Sullivan drilling it between
the uprights, for his second scoring
point of the Baine.
Stung by this reverse, Brussels
turned it on and transferred the
play to the Irish end of the field,
but their shots were off the mark
and those that were on were hand-
led capably by V. Murray.
St. Columban came back and had
two open shots on the Brussels net
but missed on both of them, one of
the drives just grazing the outside
of the goal post.
With less than minute to go and
Brussels pressing dangerously, a
foul kick was called on one of the
Irish players, but unlike some foul
hots it did not have to he touched
by anybody but the player t- eking
the kick. The foul almost brought
two of the rival players to blows,
but Referee Kemp stepped in be-
t"veen them quickly and forced them
to break it up. On the foul kick,
which was beaded for the upper
ti'rhthand corner of the Trish goal,
Jim O'Connor was justt able to get
his head to the ball and tip it over
the cross bat, and that ended the
hectic battle as the final whistle
senrided a Moment later.
