by Bro. Oatman was given in true
northern style. The Elks' Band

during the evening.
Speaking on behalf of the baseball
team, Mr. Cody the captain, expressed pleasure at being present,

victories of the team during the
past season.

Successful Season For
Basketball Appears
Bright
With the approach of the opening
night in the Gym. the basketball
teams are slowly working into shape
and to date it looks like a more
even league this winter than last.
In the Senior A league the Trojans will again take the floor with
the original lineup. The addition
of Alex. McDonald, who was forced
out of play through an injury last
year, should make a great improvement in the Trojans' guard line.
Alex plays a consistently good game
and should prove a steadying influence in this team of young veterans.
The Trojans came close to the
championship last year and will undoubtedly be in at the finish this
season. They will have strong
competition however, in the Concentrator squad. This team is
practically a new line up and anything can be expected from them.
With Stewart Steele, Johnny Gillies,
Ivor Davis and Clarence Dresser
out in front and "Lockie" Gillies
DonArneand "Al" White in the
guard line this, team should show
the fans some real ball. A few
games however, will show their
mettle.
With a strong Mine team to complete the league, basketball will
again provide enjoyment for many
during the winter months.
In the B league, the teams are
much the same as last year. The
Pirates however, have been broken
up and the league will consist of
four teams, Mine, Mechanics, Warriors and Rovers.
The Mechanics have benefited
considerably by the acquisition of
Tommy Scott. Tommy, who was
high scorer in the B league last
year, will fill the only weak spot of
the Mechanics team. With a good
forward working hard, the Mechanics should put up a real fight forthe

Search For Most Perfect
Canadian Maple Leaf
Canadians are maple leaf minded.
Magnificent autumn leaves, tinted
with all the flaming colors of early
fall are being received in ever increasing numbers, for judging in
the nation-wide competition being
conducted by the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways.
This year's competition for the
most beautiful maple leaf, is going
to be exceptionally keen, according
to reports from the railway officials
in charge. Hundreds of beautiful
leaves have already been received
from appreciative nature lovers in
the provinces of Nova Scotia, New
Brunswick, Quebec and Ontario,
while leaves from the prairie provinces and British Columbia are beginning to put in an appearance.
More than 10,000 leaves were received in first competition held last
fall, and this year present indications lead those concerned to the
opinion that the total will be far
more than twice that number.
With the swooping ridges of
maple trees already showing splendid vistas of colour, and with an
ever increasing number of people
making it a point of enjoying fall
outings in the countryside, those
in charge are making preparations
for a deluge of specimens from now
on until the competition closes on
October 15th. when judges from
the Royal Canadian Academy will
commence their exacting task, The
first prize for the most beautiful
leaf in all Canada will be $50., the
second prize $20., and the third
prize $10. The first prize for the
largest leaf is $15, and the second
prize $5.

Visit United Empire
The Stewart News
"Yes, I am well pleased with what
I have seen on United Empire, and
we will go ahead with our programme of developing tonnage for
the installation of a concentrator in
the spring," said Ben Smith to the
News, just before departure by
plane for the south at about 5.15
Sunday afternoon last after having
spent the best part of Saturday
afternoon and all Sunday on the
property, in company with Gen.
Victor Odium of Vancouver, and
two mining engineers from California, U. V. De Camp and R. H.f
Traversay.
Arriving- here by Canadian Airways plane piloted by Major McLaren from Vancouver at 2 p.m. Saturday last, Mr. Smith and party were
met at the dock by William Dann,
manager of United Empire who
motored them straight to United
Empire lower camp, where waiting
just long enough to deposit their
baggage, they climbed into ore
buckets and rode up to the mine
over the tram, arriving at the workings in less than an hour after arrival in Stewart. In company with
Mr. Dann, the party made a thorough examination of the surface and
underground working, during the
balance of the day and all Sunday,
and in the words of Mr. Smith,
were well satisfied. Leaving the
mine at about 4 p.m. Sunday, they
walked down the trail and motoring
at once to the dock, they boarded
the plane, which Major McLaren
had all tuned up, and took off for
Rupert, where they planned to
spend the night.

Wood For Heating Purposes
Still Popular In Canada
In spite of the preference for coal
and other fuels for heating purposes
a large amount of wood is still so
used in Canada. The quantity used
in normal years is estimated by the
Forest Service, Department of the
Interior, at 913 million cubic feet,
or 9,611,223 cords. Fuel wood
formed about thirty per cent of the
total amount of wood cut in the
Dominion for all purposes. During
the past two or three years there
has been a large increase in the
amount of wood used for fuel.
All good conversation, manners
and action come from a spontaneity
which forgets usages and makes

Production At Premier
Continues High
Figures released at Ottawa show
recovery at Premier Gold Mine,
Portland Canal, from 91,850 tons
milled in first half 1934, was 21,696
ozs. gold and 357,730 ozs. silver.
Estimated value of output was
$758,794, approximately $8.26 per
ton. Comparison with the results
for 1933 indicate that advance in
price of gold and silver have offset
further decline in output of these
metals per ton of ore treated. Indications ate that value of 1934
production from Premier mine will
approximate that of 1933. (For
comparative purposes in entire year
1933 company milled 182,421 tons,
producing 51,863 ozs. gold and 1,-
145,043 ozs. silver.)
These figures have reference only
to Premier Mine and do not include
returns from its various subsidiaries.

Will Organize Intermediate
Basketball League
An Intermediate Basketball
League is being considered by the
Commission for this season. With
such suoh young stars as Bruce
McMaster, George and Bobby Kent
Robert Dresser and Alex Wardrope Jr. showing promise of ability, such a league should prove of
real interest. While the boys have
not the weight and size to make
the Senior B. League, the showing
made by some of them as subs, last
year, proved the need of organized
games among them. It is pointed
out that games could be played on
basketball nights before the regular starting time.
The committee in charge have
taken the matter into consideration and a meeting of intermediate
players is scheduled for Tuesday
night at 6.30 in the Gym. Mr
Yelland will meet the boys themselves to discuss the matter.
Two teams have already been
formed and it is hoped that a third
will be forthcoming,
All boys interested are urged to
turn out.
BASKETBALL
PERSONALS
"Bud Gillies"
In reviewing the merits of our
local hoop stars, it is fitting that
we start with the brightest of
last season's constellation. Starting basketball in High School,
'"Bud" has improved steadily until
last year he reached a high standard. Playing with the Trojans, he
stayed close to the top of the scoring list and was one of the pillarR
of the team. With the all-star
aggregation which brought the
Northern B. C. Cup to Anyox,
Bud showed the stuff that makes
champions.
This year he is again with the
Trojans and will be in there fighting for the championship of the
league.
Besides being one of our best
hoopsters, Bud is one of the youngest, having yet to see 19. A very
even tempered and steady player,
he is conceded to be a real good
sport, even by his cleverest opponents.

Terrace This Year
It is surprising how many prospectors have been operating on
Lome Creek this year, and most of
them got some gold. One old
timer on the creek took $40.00 out
of one pocket under the old Indian

and a lot of pockets were cleaned
out. Altogether it has been a verv
good year on Lome Creek.
