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. * * WE WANT YOUR HELP 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 - thought -out lecture by Mr. Hugh Templin, of the Fergus News -Record on "How to improve the Weekly 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- ing to this talk, we concluded that we would, through this column, ask your aid in making our paper a better pa- per.

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 deep centre to end the inning. The Braves scored four big runs in the seventh to win the game. Som- ers opened the rally with a triple to ,centre, the ball bouncing wildly past Smith who was having a hard tune. of it in centre field. Lediet looped a single to score Somers, and went to third himself as Smith dropped Grov- es high fly, Bob taking second and Smith a place on Owen Sound bench, Manager Hilliard nominating him- self to replace the larlcy centre -field- er. Gray struck out, but Wilbur Tif- fin singled to score Lediet and put Groves on third from where the lat- ter scored an Chalmers single over second, Tiffin taking third, Joe Tiffin scored his brother with a long fly to deep left -centre and Peterson forced Chalmers at 20d, to end the rally, The tribe scored two more in the eighth, Finlayson getting his carcass in the road of one of Tyler's slants to start proceedings and taking sec- ond on Somer's sacrifice. Bill Lediet then drove a litter past Hilliard to the slide in deep centre and made the great tour before the ball could be relayed in, Pinlayson galloping in a- head of the dusty third -sacker. Grov- es continued the assault by bouncing a torrid single off Bunts shins and Rae also got on by the same exped- ient as Al. Finlayson. 13i11 • Tiffin struck out but Lawson erred an Chal- mers drive, filling the bases, Peter- son again forced his brother mound- sman out to end proceedings as far as the Hurons were concerned. The Millionaires second run carne in the ninth when Hilliard opened • the in- ning with a triple to deep left -centre and scored unmolested as Lediet threw out 'Wilson.

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 a home -run by Burt and a triple by Canada and we believe that this $100,- 00 100;00 can be used to good advantage ad- vertising Canada outside of our boun- daries. * * * * A youth of 24 escaped from the Don Jail, Toronto, last week.

As Scouts, boys are taught to be resourceful, obsevant, and self-reliant. They are taught hobbies, for which we give proficient badges. Life in the open is the feature in Boy Scout training.

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 five games in a . row to get into the play-offs. This includes two games. with Chesley and one each with Pais- ley, Kincardine and. Port Elgin. '2, * * * 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. * * a: * Wingham-- A.B. R. H. Po A, E.
