Locally, -responsibility for the al- leged ,unfairness, is attributed to Rettbe Horning, of Palmerston, chair- man of, the sub. committee, who, ac- cording to reports here, gave positive assurance that the game would be played in Listowel, and afterwards, without consulting the teams con- cerned, or certain members of his committee took upon himself the au- thority to engage the London .arena., It was. pointed out further that the president, Dr. Lorne Robertson,. of Stratford, in telephone conversation with the vice-president, B. L. I-1.'33am- 1 ford of Listowel,stated that the locals cbuld be reasonably :sure of,:having ' their request granted and that it would be gale to announce in the fo- cal papers that the game would be played on Monday in Listowel. The idea of playing in London, so the boys have it here, was to make more for the League, but in this re- spect the scheme was a decided fizzle, and the exhibition match which took place between Woodetock and New Hamburg, when Listowel declined to - make a third trip to London, proved a costly experiment. Horning-, according to an article in the Free Press claimed that there was an inch of water of the Listo- wel ice. If correctly, reported, this statement of Horning' was pure fab- rication, The ice, we are assured, hah"been•Iin ;worse condition than on Monday, -when •Teeagne hockey was played this winter. •• The objection locally.to playing at London was not only because the rul- ing was an -uncalled for 'departure His guidness and,'His ' mercy baith Nadoot will bide wi' WC While faulded on the fields o' time , Qr. o' eternity.
