BUNK

There seems to be quite num- Der of poor sports who failed to spend four bits and go to the game last night and now insist that the Soldiers threw the game. The first person l met on the street this morning asked me why we did it and each of my players have been asked the same question. This does not make me sore for it is too ridiculous to take seriously. Anyone who wit messed the game, and who ever saw a game before will testify that my men could not hit the basket, were literally played off their feet and, possibly were bit over-confident after their big vic tory of the night before. As predicted in yesterdays Gateway the Seward team would likely feel vindctive in last nights game and would play different game. They were all of that, and just little bit more, but played a clean sportsman's game turnout and the sting of defeat is great Iy diminished by receiving it from such clean group of men. We had couple of injuries last mite which will slow our team just a bit but like Seward the night be- fore, my team now has blood in it's eye and the end of tonight's game will find us on the long end of about a 24-20 score.

Rupert Indicates Pos

ment Today

NEW YORK, N. Y. Dec. 2.-tP,-
indications of possible effort to cur
tail the power of baseball Commits
sioner Landis are contained in a state
ment by Jacob Rupert, president OF
the New York Yankees.
Il am in favor of continuing Lands
in office" he says, but I have in
mind a plan that both leagues appoint
committees of three men to revise the
major league agreement and the agree
ment with Lands. Such changes as
they recommend can be reported back
to all the club owners next spring.
who can then adopt them and re-eiect
the commissioner"
This. Col. Rupert said, is the same
view a majority of the American
League owners hold, but his refusal
to describe the changes he has IN
mind has led baseball men to be-
iieve that n concerted effort will be
made by American League owners to
curtail the power Of the commissioner
when the leagues hold their annual
meeting in Chicago Dec. 16.
National League magnates have inoi-
Gated their desire to return Lands TO
office for seven years at the coming
meeting although his term does not
expire until November 20, 1927. The
heads of the older circuit seek no
change in the conditions under which
Lands now rules organized baseball.

The second matrimonial ship to

This first became known yester-

Ell Jardin District To
Go Ahead With Its
Program

Fl Jardin water Improvement dis
trict will go ahead and hold its $780,

Der II as ordered.
c. L. Hunter, manager Of the water
district, III. l.. Yates, attorney, and

agreement was reached. The county
election had been ordered for Decem-

Representative Of the water dis
trict were unconvinced that the bond
in gcapacity of the county would be
affected by issuing the drainage
bonds under Article 3, Section 50 OF
the state constitution and the confer
ence with county officials ended with
out an agreement having been reach
ed.
Ii was the contention of County
Judge Oscar c. Dancy that the bond
ing capacity Of the county would be
be affected if the election was
changed so that bonds would be is
sued under Article 16 but the officials
of the water district did not see their
way clear TO do so.
| The county commissioners had
passed a resolution requesting that
the FL Jardin election be postponed
and guaranteed that the court would
withhold the issuance of bonds or any
attempt to validate bonds within the
gross limit Of its bonding capacity K
the amount of 100000 until the dis
trict could issue its drainage bonds.

80 Out Of ll2 Seats
Pledged to Support
Plan For Govern

TORONTO, Dec. 2.-(P)-The prov
ince Of Ontario, dry fer ten years, has
gone wet. In elections held yester-
day throughout the province for the
liz seats in the legislature at least
eighty members, pledged to support
Premier G. Howard Ferguson's policy
for government control of the sale of
spirits and beer, were elected. Only
one remote constituency remained to
be heard from.
On the liquor issue, Ferguson, con-
servative, can count on the support
of four Independent lioeral leaders,
who broke away from w. f. n. Sim
clair. the liberal osition leader
and the solitary Ia member elect
ed.
With two dist IS missing, the
standing of the pa. 5 in the legisla-
ture was: Conserva ves, 76; liberals

cy, while MIR. Sinclair received ma
jority of 2,3l3 in his home districts.
By the vote of the people they have
indicated that the operation of the
Ontario temperance act as method
for enforcing temperance was not con-
sid cred a success. Much antagonist m
against the act, which provided for
the sale of liquor only on doctors
prescriptions, was due to the claim
that it had made things easy for
bootleggers.
1t is expected that Premier Fergu-
son will call the newly elected legis-
lature into session at an early date
for the purpose Of giving effect to his
proposals for government control. The
details Of these proposals have not yet
been determined. The premier has
announced that he desires to have the
collective judgment of the house on
them.
During me campaign it was stated
that Premier Ferguson's program
would provide for permits for every
person over 81 years of age to obtain
liquor or beer at government vendor $
places at reasonable cost.
