The midgets lost 4-3 to Arva and the Irish Six bowed to Zur ich 2-0. However, the Irish did win an important game from Ilderton by the score of 4-3. Zurich displayed far more strength against Lucan than they appeared to have when they played Ilderton. To quote an old friend, Harvey Langford: "It looks-as though hockey this win ter- is going io have all the zest and - flavour of the good old- fashioned games of the past.” Lucan Irish will play host to Goderich Friday night.

But credit goes to the builders, of the U.S. Navy’s mighty hew carrier, U.S.S, Ranger, for using aluminum foil to keep their product "fresh’’. During construction, a ship tests on wooden blocks, which absorb a lot of moisture. To protect their costly steel hull from rust and corrosion during the 18-month construction pe riod, the Navy simply covered the blocks with ordinary house hold foil. This brainwave was a natural for a marine builder, since nowadays he uses shiny, non-corroding aluminum so widely for superstructures, life* boats an,d other important ship* building ‘components.
