SEAFORTH, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1933. • Winthrop and i� First of Steve Games on T Huron County League Sea- son Draws to Close With One Game to -Play on Fri- day Evening Next inNa1- ton. FINALS, DRAWING ' BIG ATTENDANCE (Winthrop and Walton played a 14 tie at Winthrop on Tuesday last in the. first game of the finals for the Stephenson Cup in the Hnu'on League splay -.offs. The game went' the fall 90 minutes and since it didn't get under . way until 5A5, the last part of the game was played after dusk had settled. Both teams played rather cautious- ly at first with Winthrop pressing Walton close into the goal mouth. R. Watson was knocked out after five iminutes had been played and then Ken 'Rutledgewas hurt when Win- throp put on an attack. Wilse Wright kicked a nice corner kick but Winthrop couldn't score, • _although Don Dale gave the croWd.•a thrill by. (shooting near the goal post, After twenty minutes -of play; Walton•'forc- ed the play around' Winthrop's goal and missed two wonderful chances- to score. After a goal kick, Winthrop went tearing down to Walton terri- tory and D. Dale made Walton goalie do some smart work. A. Dale .miss- ed a golden opportunity, 'but three Walton men crowded him out of the play. • The play see -sawed back and forth with neither side getting much head- way. Neil iMontgomery was knock- ed out of• play and the game was held' up for a fewminutes. Winthrop looked dangerous when A. Dale pass- ed to Wilse Wright, ,but Moody Hol- land and Norman Rowland broke-up the play. Rutledge made a nice save !when Bill Montgomery drove a hot one that touched the former's fin- gers and bounced' over the,bar for a corner' kick, The same thing hap- pened two minutes later, but again iRutledge saved and the whole Wal- ton team Were ,palled on to keep Win- throp oust. Near the end of the period; Wal- ton put on an attack with Jim John- ston in the lead. Bill Montgomery broke upthe attack with a long high ki- k and saved Winthrop froth a had situation. Second Half. 'After four minutes of play in the second half,Moody, Holland kic•kett behind 'hie ,blown goal and Wilse 1 Wright again kicked from the corner. Tom Ross kicked over the goal post after D. Dale made a perfect pass with his head. "Two minutes 'later the ball bounced 'off Lorne Steiss be- hind the goal line for another corner kick. Winthrop,, though trying hard to score from the corner kicks, were blocked completely by the good work .•.°of the Waltonites. In breaking up a dangerous rush, A. Farquharson ac- cidentally caused another corner kick. In the first 17 minutes of the sec - end half, Winthrop had five ' cornet kicks .and Wilse Wright made some nice trys with the Last one landing on top of the bar. Ken Rutledge was kicked on the knee and play was again held up. D. Dale developed a limp from a 'block- ed ball but kept on playing,, d'alton made a nice rush and Jim Johnston took a hard shot on goal, but was unsuccessful-. Rowland • and Steiss caused two mere corner kicks' en•clin-the second one Torrance Dundas scored when he. headed the ball past Rutledge to put Winthrop in the lead, 1-0. The play then .became fast and Walton began to rally and forced Winthrop close to their goal mouth. Farquharson kicked a nice cbrnel but one minute dater Jim Johnston scored and tied the count. The tieing goal. came 11 animates after the first counter. Winthrop carte thundering down and A. and D. Dale almost knocked the goal pest over when they tried to score. The ball, however, bounded off the goalkeeper in behind for an- other corner kick. Darkness was falling and it was bard to see either end of the, playing field. The crowd did not do Tech cheering before the goals were scor- ed but a crowd of Walton girls broke the spell when the score was tied. It was a goad game and ably hand- led 'by Jack Armstrong, of Londes- horo. 'The second game will be played at 'Walton on Friday, Sept. 8th. With both teams at full strength and the score tied as it now stands, a fine finish is looked for to end up the football season.

The spirit of adventure that carried Columbus across unchart- ed seas; that moved Champlain to explore the virgin wilderness that since has become Ontario, spurred five brave local youths to drive to Sarnia for the boat race in a' car whose ability to travel the length of Main Street under auspicious circumstances, would be doubted by many. The tour started Monday noon and finished late Tuesday, the party making the round trip via Lon- don and Petrolia. It is tis be regretted that the adventurers, Ross Rennie, Gordon McKellar, Jack •Dorrance, John Mero and Andrew Calder, arrived in Sarnia too late to see the race. • • • • • • Objection Hensall, Sept. 3, 1933. The Editor, Huron Expositor: Dear Sir:• I would like to take advantage of your, columtKts to voice my disapproval of the hoax that 'is being put over the congregations of the London Conference of the United Church. I refer, to the presence in the county of the Rev, Stephen A. Haboush—supposed Galilean Shep- herd. It is'to be supposed that the m,emibers. of the Contferencte have gone into his credentials thoroughly.. However, having heard him speak and having seen his performance, one wonders that any group of Christian; ministers could endorse him. The meetings held in the Hensall United Church were advertised and heralded like a circus -seven to the steam organ, a trifle modernized. .I heard the Sunday address on August 27th. Due to the blatant calliope type of advertising' and the endorsation of the London Confer- ence, a large crowd attended, to hear the experiences of a' Galilean shep- herd and his interpretation of the 2:i1`d Psalm. His experiences were largely what none would expect from the imagina- tion of 'a ten -year-old boy. Combats with the elements and wild animals, that illustrated—to himself—his own personal prowess, were the • subject of his few words depicting his life as a shepherd. Then there followed a feeble interpretation of part of the 33rd Psalm, In fact, orte•' wondered' just what it was all about. Finally he spoke of the coming week -night meetingand told of the wonders to be see, of the beautiful voice of Madame—all for 33 cents. One left that church service' with a very bad taste in the mouth. Out of curiosity to see just how far this would be carried, I at- tended the mid -week meeting on September 1st. Again the rtes' rn calliope appear ed on th.2 streets throuphoot the day. All of wheel 'slid not add to the dig- ttity of the• United church in Canada., The 111avin;t' pictures were ,;nod— nf the tole that can be procured ;'ran; any moving picture agency, 'ladante Ha:hush's vatic.—if it w"a- voieo—vnrne to us through th medium of a Cictrola and record.

PLAY IN LONDON SAT. • AF rERNOON Seaforth took the first game of the finals for Zone 1 championship in O.S.B.A. by defeating the Boys' Shop team of London 13-12 here on Wednesday. Londpn had Seaforth 12-6 at the end of the fifth, but by persistent playing the • locals carne from behind and managed to nose, them out by one run. Ted Taman brought in McGregor and 'Burgess in the ninth to tie the score and Bill Cudmore knocked a single to bring Taman home from third. The locals played rather loose ball in the first part of the game and four runs were scored on one error when Lane, of Boys' Shop, stretched a single into a home run. This was in the fifth and.London collected six runs before the locals could tighten down. Cudmore relieved Bucknam when the half inning was over and -finish- ed the game. Cudrnore pitched . well &net was given good support, Buck - nam struck out three' tvthile pitching but loaded the bases by giving three straight walks. Ted Tantian did .his best hitting of the season when he managed to con- nect for two, singles and a double and got home safely three times. Ev- an Rennie saved a bad situation when he ran up to third and nabbed a loose :ball just about to go into the spectators. , The largest crowd of the season saw the game and saw defeatl,tturn ed into victory in the dying mom- . ents. The Boys'Shop Shop played a nice brand of .ball hut the locals. did not play up to top form. If they are in perfect shape on Saturday when they play the return game, the champion- ship should come to Seaforth.' In` Explanation. To those who are not just sure where Seaforth stands, an explana tion night clear up matters. Theme, are six zones in Ontario, comprising numerous groups of teams. Br Sep- tember kith each zone will have de- clared a winner, leaving six teams in the running. These six teams will play off for 'the championship of On tario. The winner of Zone 1 will probably meet winner •of Zone ra which includes Owen !Sound, Lis- towel and teams north of here. Having come out with a' twin in Wednesday night's .game, the locals have the edge on the Boys' Shop. Quite -a number of cars will journey to London to see the game, which will be played at 3,30 pen.
