IM'V Fishy Stories From Yarmouth Cnrfjan Pr a YARMOUTH Strange fish stories have been coming from the Yarmouth waterfront A women and a small boy were fishing side-by-side on Sweeney's Wharf when each got a bite at the same time They pulled up their lines and of rourse earh had hooked the same fish a 10-inch pollock That wan't as unusual as the gull that got tangled in a line The boy and hia sister hauled the bird in to untangle it and they succeeded The Lakehead cities of Fort William and Port Arthur have opened their doors wide for this event Giant bunting bedecks streets and stores there' a

after Ihe first 35 games of the season was given 68 points in the voting Sawchuk with 89 goals against was given three points less If a third team had been selected Glen Hall of the Chicago Black Hawks would have made it with 22 points Hall had allowed 104 goals after his first 35 games of the season The end result of this half-way voting is that Tlante and Sawchuk are certain to make the
