LIQUOR ADVERTISING
Edmond G. Odette, who has been
selected by Mitchell F. Hepburn to be
a one -,than commission to replace the
present Liquor Control Board, has
Stated that he will recommend to Mr.
Hepburn that liquor advertising be
allowed in newspapersandperiodicals
of Ontario.
Since war -time prohibition this
class of advertising has not appeared
in papers or periodicals in Ontario
but the law apparently will be chang-
ed to permit such advertising.
That the breweries and distilleries
are preparing to take advantage of
this change of law is evident by the
fact that circulars have been sent to
all papers asking if they will insert
liquor .advertising when and if per-
mitted.
This ,office has, along with other
weekly papers, received these circu-
lars and in every case we have stat-
ed definitely that The Advance -Times
will not carry liquor advertising.
There is little doubt but that the
papers which carry this class of ad-
vertising will secure considerable re-
venue from same, and we, like other
weeklies, could well do with this ad-
ditional sale of space but we feel that
advertisingin our paper gives results
and it is not our intention to help
educate the youth as to the quality of
the various brands of liquor, beer and
wine.
We do not wish to pose as an ar- ;
dent temperance advocate, for we feel
the liquor law, as it is at present, is
the most suitable to Ontario, but the
advent of advertising is not at all ne-
cessary.

On Friday the newspaper folk of
Huron County met at Bayfield to
study the problems of the day as they
affect them, and to listen to a well -

Paper." To go into the details of this
lecture, which was full of interest for
we in the newspaper game, would be
quite a bore for you but after listen-

spend $100,000 on stimulating tourist de little with Peterson's drop ball
trade. This trade means much to which worked very nicely against the
five left-handers Graham's crew sent
to the plate. While there were no
outstanding fielding features, the Ind-
ian infield turned in a fine perform-
ance, accepting thirty-six chances
with only two miscues.
Burt, the Millionaire second -base-
man, opened the scoring for the day
in the third inning when he parked
one of Peterson's fast balls over in
Art, Wilson's garden for a home -run.
The Hurons threatened in the fourth
but couldn't score. Groves opened with
a single, but Gray popped out trying
to sacrifice. W. Tiffin's single to
right put Groves on third, when 13e1 -
rose let the ball go through to the
fence, Tiffin taking second, Chalmers
walked to fill the bases but Gurney
struck out and Peterson popped out
to third before any damage resulted.
The Hurons tied the score in the
sixth, as Gray got a life on Lawson's
error and went to second on Bill Tif-
fin's sacrifice, "Buck" Moore, an ex-
pro. hockey player, obligingly drop-
ped Chalmers fly to left, Gray taking
third from where he' scored after Joe
Tiffin, batting for Gurney, had flied
out to right. Peterson singled but
Finlayson flied out to Izzy Smith in

Goaded to desperation by the un-

the Lucknow Sepoys here last Friday
and the consequent criticism hurled
their way by the irate local citizenry,
the Wingham Hurons turned in a
sparkling brand of ball here Wednes-
day afternoon to trounce Teddy Gra-
ham's Owen . Sound Millionaires by
the convincing score of 7-2. Behind
steady six -hit pitching by Hal. Peter-
son and aided by some very poor out -
fielding by the Sound outer gardeners,
the Hurons assaulted Tyler, a tall,
rangy right-handed Manitoulin Indian,
for eleven solid smashes, including
Bill Lecliet's third Home run of the
year, to win going away. Except for

GOLDSMITH AGAIN
BLANKS HURONS
Crack Portsider Still Stingy With
Hits, Allowing Only Five.
The Wingham Hurons journeyed up
to Southampton Saturday all keyed
up after walloping Owen Sound ear-
lier in the week, and confident of giv-
ing the great Lefty Goldsmith a real
battle right on his own diamond, but
all the Indians saw wasa lot of scen-
ery on the way up and back and very
little of the ball while they were
there. As usual the big southpaw toy-
ed with the opposition allowing a few
scattered hits but getting tighter than
Edinburgh on tag day when any of
the Braves got near the counting sta-
tion and coasted along to a 10-0 shut-
out, his second of the season over the
locals. Once again Hurons cracked
wide open defensively, making six
costly errors. Lack of practice seems
to be the only answer to this unfor-
tunate state of affairs, the Indians
Having committed some 43 errors
since May 28th rolled around. This
is altogether too many for even sand-
lot baseball,
The few local fans who made the
long journey up the peninsula had
little to enthuse over, Hal. Peterson,
the much over-worked Huron Ace, be-
ing hit hard and his support was even
worse. Peterson has pitched in parts
of ten games this year which is too.
much for most pitchers. The Braves
looked good for a few innings but the
pressure proved too much and the
youthful outfit cracked wide open, es-
pecially in the 7th. The Fishermen
got two runs to open the scoring in
the 3rd, Noble getting the first of
four singles: he collected during the
day, Schilling scoring him with a dou-
ble and following in himself as Mc-
Kay was being thrown out.
Hector himself started a three -rain
rally the neat inning, opening with a
single. Aiken walked in to his own
hit and was automatically out but
Baker sent Goldy to third when his
drive went through Tuddy Tiffin.
Brown doubled to score Baker and
later scored when Tiffin again let one
through, this time off Dick Doran,
Noble got his second hit but Rae
inade a fine throw to catch Doran go-
ing into third. Schilling also singled
but McKay grounded out, The Hue.-
ons
urwons filled the bases in the second on
a fielder's choice, Gurney's single and
a walk to Rae, but Peterson struck
ou to put an end to the rally before
it got even started.
The seventh ended all hopes the
Hurons might have had abolit tivrt�
Thursday, Jury 12th, 1934
ping the game, Goldsmith and Aiken
hit successive singles, Goldsmith rea-
ching third. Baker hit to Chalmers
who threw him out at first, Joe Tif-
fin then rifling the ball back to Grov-
es who tagged out Aileen trying to,
score behind Goldsmith. Bob was
spliced on the play and play was held
up for nearly twenty minutes while'
the big catcher received repairs. The
delay seemed to upset the rest of the
team far four mor runs scored after
two were out before the Braves could
retire the other man. Brown got a
life when: Rae dropped his fly and
then Doran and. Noble singled in suc-
cession, Brown scoring, Bob Chahn-
ers then messed up two successive
balls off the bats of Schilling and Mc-
Kay respectively, Noble and Schilling
scoring. Chalmers then went to the.
mound and Kugler grounded out to.
end the scoring.

The Huron have to win the next

Smith, the base umpire from Port
Elgin, caused Al, Finlayson plenty of.
grief Saturday by robbing him of two
hits by calling him out at first after
Fin. had apparently beaten the throw
both times. This hard luck .caused a
difference. of 111 points in Al's bat-
ting average, which is enough to make
any ball player sore.

Future Games
On Wednesday evening, the llth,
the Mic-Macs 'and Cubs meet again.
Both teams are anidous to win this
game as they have now played half
their -schedule games, and the winner
of this game has the best chance of
making the play-offs. The Aces are
picked for first place, and it remains
for the other two teams to settle who
is going to be the other team in the
play-offs.
Monday's game was postponed to
allow the baseball team to practice
as they are fighting with their backs
to the wall and have to win all their
games from now on. The game that
there was scheduled for Friday night be-
tween Transport Oil and Silvertowns
is also being postponed for the same
reason.
On Tuesday, the 17th, the Aces and
Cubs clash again and the Cubs are
out to avenge their defeat at the hands
of the leaders. A win for the Cubs
would put thein very much in the run-
ning and the boys are going to do
their best, so Aces may not be trump,
for one evening anyway.
