HURON FOOTBALL LEAGUE SPONSORS LOCAL HOCKEY SCHEDULE (Contributed by Centre Forward) Greetings, everyone! Our pen, like the weather, has become froz- en. The Huron Football League is being kept alive all winter through our new baby, the Huron Hockey League. The games which have been played have shown some surprising activity and form. Winthrop turned out with a few oldsters and with a load of young talent, who have lots of ambition, but need more experience. Wal- ton turned up with a number of good sports that help to keep sport activity alive in that centre. Ethel, with most of last year's soccer team, added a few youngsters. Brussels, while slow in starting, has a good team of ex -players and a kid line. The past scores are no indica- tion of .the games played. In some instances it was a matter of how the play broke. The scores have been high, which pleased the pay- ing customers. The crowds have been fair, but are increasing. The reaction to the league is encour- aging to your executive. The re- marks of the retired members are: "It should have been done before," and by those players who are not too old to play, but drop- ped out for various reasons, "It gives us a chance to play." Thanks are due Brussels Arena for their co-operation, and espec- ially the custodian of the rink. Well, folks, there are a few games left, so turn out and see some goodhockey and join in the fun. The play-offs will commence about February 16, and the trophy is ready for the winner. iA�:�ITMzI, mid Huron League Hockey Schedule All games played in Brussels Jan. 7—Walton 11, Ethel 10 Jan. 10—Winthrop 0, Ethel 13 Jan.. 14—Brussels 7, Ethel 6 Jan. 17—Brussels 15, Walton 7 Jan. 21—Walton vs. Winthrop Jan. 24—Brussels vs. Winthrop Jan. 28—Walton vs. Ethel Jan. 31—Brussels vs. Ethel Feb. 4—Walton vs. .Brussels Feb. 7—Winthrop vs. Ethel Feb. 11—Brussels vs. Winthrop Feb. 14—Walton vs. Winthrop Exeter, Seaforth Join Forces For Badminton The best attendance yet was seen last Wednesday night when 15 badminton players turned out to knock the birdie around in the badminton room in the Town Hall.

Their players are coming here on Thursday night to make plans and also to play. Lunch will be serv- ed. Anyone interested in playing will be welcomed, • officers of the Seaforth club said in discussing arrangements. Obituaries MISS K. 11ENZIES BRUSSELS.
