Mr Farquharson, always ready to exchango reminiscences as he served you in his stal next to a cinema, has emigrated to Canada, taking his wife with hin to join their two sons, three daughters and eleven #and-children in Toronto.

No inforna- lion regarding the eventual line- up is known, put whoever la nominated to uphold the honour of the Juniors will have no easy task as the opposing hurler will probably be "Goose" Wong, of Warriors fame..
