Zurich Bankers Involved. hi ra eh Transfers Two young men, both well known in this district, have re- ceived moves in the Bank of Mon- treal. Douglas "Red" Theander, who spent some time in the bank here in Zurich before moving to Chat- ham, has been transferred to Han- over. While in Zurich Red was well known as a standout ball player, as well as playing hockey for the locals. In Hanover he will join another young man who has been in Zurich, in the person of Grant Male, who went to Hanover from Zurich. Jerry Rannie, Hensall, has been moved from the Bank of Montreal branch in Clinton to Walkerton., Starting out in the Hensall bank, Jerry was transferred to Clinton about one year ago. He was also well known here in Zurich, having played baseball for the Lumber - kings, and being a member of the Zurich Lions Club. It is quite possible either or both € of these young men may be seen in these parts this summer in a ball uniform of the towns they are now in, since both Hanover and 1 Walkerton are both good ball towns. Walkerton has a team ent- ered in the same grouping as Zu- rich. 0'rim's Plumbing Heating and Tinsmithing Phone 156 * Zurich ROCK of AGES EVENTIDE AND MORIAI,S INQUIRIES ARE INVITED T.
