The Scout Promise — On my
honour I promise to do my best,
to do my duty to God and the
Queen; to help other people at
all times; and to obey the Scout
laws.
Last Wednesday night we had
our first meeting of 1958, Being
hockey night in Zurich the atten-
dance was small.
The Wolf Cubs held their meet-
ing an hour earlier than usual,
and were called to order in a
parade circle. A simple inspect-
ion of shoes, fingernails and hair
was held, with very good results.
A game called "Hit the Deck"
was then played, after which an
instruction period was held. The
test of the Zulu boy was read
and then the duties of a Wolf
Cub were discussed. After the
discussion period a game called
"Captain Jiggs" was played.
The Wolf Cubs and Boy Scouts
will meet again on Wednesday,
February 19, starting at 7 o'clock.

SPORTS DIGEST
By DON O'BRIEN
(Citizens News Sportswriter)
"GO DUNNIES GO !"
"If we don't win, then pick on NHL Next Time."—Blair
Me Whitby Dunlops will be in there fighting every moment,
says General Manager Wren Blair. The Dunnies, who sailed for
England last week on the Queen Elizabeth, are confident that they
will return with the World's Hoskey Championship safely tucked
away.
Jack McKenzie, who also played for the Kitchener Waterloo
Flying Dutchmen during the Olympics two years ago, feels that
the Dunnies are more finished, mare effective, and more experienced
than the Dutchmen were.
'Coach Sid Smith, former Maple Leaf star, says "We're in
excellent condition and we're going to keep working at it. This
means physical training and practice, as well as the games on the
pre -tournament exhibition tour."
The Canuck entry has already won its seven games in this
tour, including three against the Swedish entry who won the World
Tournament at Moscow last year.
In bolstering their Allan Cup champions of last year, the
Dunnies added coach Smith, goalkeeper Roy Edwards, McKenzie,
centre Connie Broden, who played with the Canadiens during last
year's' Stanley Cup playoffs; George Gosselin, of North Bay Trappers
and Jean Paul Lamirande, of Quebec Aces.
The Dunlops will play an eight game schedule in the world
tournament at Osla, Norway, from February 28 through March 9.
They will encounter East Germany, Poland, Norway and Finland in
the opening four days and then will have four days off before taking
on Sweden, the defending champions, Czechoslovakia, then the Un-
ited States, and finally, Russia.
Good luck! Dunnies!

TWO AND TWO
The batter was a monster, the catcher was a tough 225 poun-
der, and the umpire was a little skinny fellow. With the count one and
and one, the pitcher whistled in a fast ball.
"Two!" the umpire. thrilled.
"Two what? snarled the catcher, lifting his mask threaten -
"Yea, two what?" gritted the batter, raising his club.
The urnp looked from one brute to the other.
"Too close to tell," he said moving for the exit.
