GAME THROWN
• AWAY THURSDAY
When the Shell Gas and Out Gang
einet on 'Thursday evening in a sched-
eele game, the latter were minus a
'number of their regular line-up, and
•ithinking they might delay the game
• .suffieiently long enough to have it
;nailed on eccount of darlenese, ragged
?the play. In the fourth inning the um.
Tires as well an the spectators .were
'disgusted and gave the game •to the
'Shell Gas. This (decision caused con-
• siderable discussion, as to an umpire's
,authority. the score was 31-4.
In looking up the rule book, we
find that in Rule 13, section 4, it says,
'A game ellen be forfeited if a team
• employs tactks palpably designed to
'delay the game."
On Monday evening a gaine of de-
scided contrast was played between the
Foundry and the Shell Gas. The play
was snappy at all tine e with both
'teams on their toes all the tine. At
no time during he whole game did
either teaiu feel sure of winning, and
limither did, as it resulted in an 8-8
tie. In the final frame. both teams
Tut all they had into the fray, and
in the last half the Foundry had a
.trianon second with two down when
en hot grounder was knocked down to
:Scott, who picked it up and toesed
it a trifle wide to first, but the queck
action of Will. French saved them

WILL BRIGHTEN
NEW MARKERS
After the forinel black and white
of this year's license markers, On-
tario motorists will be introduced in
1931 to something a little jazzier—
black and old gold.
The lettering will be black on old
gold—or yellow—backgenund just the
edam as Quebec's markers this year.
There will be xi° change in the sys-
tem of letters and numbers.
Outside the color change, the only
variation from this •year's markers,
will .be that the name of the province
and the year—it will read: 'Ont. 1931'
—will appear at the top of the mark-
er. This year it is at the bottom and
traffic officers claim it interferes with
the legibility of the marker's number.
The bolt holes too, will be at the top.

club remarked ponderously: "If there

necessary the early showing of the
fireworles.
All seven bands a$ follows, Blyth,-
Chesley, Hanover, Harriston, Listow-
el, Lucknow and Wingham, were
present and the choke selections ren-
dered were much enjoyed and ap-
plauded. Listowel's male quartette

Every band received the plaudits of
an appreciative audience, while the

cap of it gently falling ram. To this
