PAGE TWELVI TEE CAKADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARTO Foresters Lose Io Oshawa Couliers In Close* Game on Saturday The Coulter's softball team won the fifth game of the semi-final series at Storey Park, Oshawa, last Saturday against the Bow- manvilie Foresters to earn tbe rigbt ta meet Bryant Motor Sales for the Axteli Tropby, by a score of 14-12. Once again tbe saying that the regular season's record means notbing wben play-offs start was proven correct. The local For- esters won the first tbree times tbey met and tied the 4th game, only ta lose out in the play-offs. Coulters and Bowmanville f in- ished one, two in the league stand- ing and are definitely the class of the league. Coulters should now win easily from Bryant Mo- tors. The Fo sters scored 2 runs in the first Yn bits by Kitson and Ki]patrick and one more in the second. However, a 'big eight- run second inning for Couiters rocked the Bowmnanville boys. Locke and Labrashbobth bit home runs each with twa mates aboard. The Foresters fought back and took the lead 9-8 only ta see an- otber big 5-run 5th inning wipe away the lead. Very well piaced bits by Staîker and Levitt again moved the visitors close ta Coul- ter's. In the 8tb and 9tb innings Bowmanville bad the tieing runs onbase but couid not drive them aoross the plate. Ken Staîker and Jim Levitt sbared hitting bonours, eacb driv- ing home 3 runs. Staîker had a * 3-run double and Levitt a 2- run homer. Sensational catches were made by Crawford o! Coulter's and Bird of Bowmanville. Bob Bird's catch was a one-hander of a long fly bah ta deep centre field (Di- maggio style). For Coulter's Jim Claus pitch- ed until the 8th wben Pete Mu- siek relieved him. S. Claus did a terrific job of catching and bis all-around pep and chatter com- bined with bis fine catcbing was a big factor in the Couiter's vic- tory. For Bowmanville Stacey and H. Snowden shared mound du- ties, eacb pitcbing four innings. J. Levitt and B. Snowden did the receiving. The Foresters were missing their regular first baseman, Jack Ross and bis presence was miss- ed badly, especially at tbe plate. Bowmanville outhit Coulter's 14-12 and alsa out-errored them 5 ta 4. Bowmanville left il men on bases and Coulter's 8. Aithough out of the running the Foresters bave several games lined up in the near future with Ebenezer and Newcastle. In ad- dition they are arraning ta bning in an outside softball team wbich is weii known toa ah bail fans of the district, for an exhibition game. Watch for this game in next week's paper. Harry Snawden won the newly donated C.O.F. Traphy for the leading bitter on the Bowman- ville team with an average of .417. Jack Kitson led in extra base bits with 10 and H. Snow- den scored the most runs, 32 in 15 games. The team's batt*iig av- erage was .305 for 15 games. (Ex- hibition games average not count- ed). AB R H Pet. H. Snowden ---- 72 32 30 .417. C.

"Bill "Lefty" Dadson of Pet- erborough, was the gent in ques- tion and be was witbin four bat- ters of joining the bal of f ame as the Marines knocked off Osh- awa Merchants 10-1 in the fifth game of their bcst-of-seven Via- duct final series. "With two out in the last frame, Paul Thompson beat out a slow roller down the first base line for the anly bit of tbe game. Dadson was in trouble oniy once during the contest and that was in the opening inning. Then he walkcd threc, .which together with three stoien bases and an error, accounted for Oshawa's lone run." - Men's Major League Release Schedule For New Seasoni First Schedule Sept. 20-7 p.m.-Bagnchl vs Luxton, Mimne vs Osborne, Rundie vs McKnight. 8.15-Hearle vs Westhake, Phiiiips vs Elliott, Bates vs Hoar.

The wecds, including rag-weed and the tlu grass hanging aven edges o! our sidevialk refleet badiy on aur property owners. Genemaiiy speaking, the places whene women only, live, are kept in the best condition and refleot much credit ta tbem. Youms for action, H. W. Bowmanville, Ont., Sepember 11, 1950 Dear Mr. Editor,- I was delighted ta see in the September 7th edition of your Canadian Statesman the editorial, "Suggestion on Decentralization." I agmee with your economic rea- soning as ta why decentralized governmcnt offices should be la- cated in smailer municipahities and towns. Most certainhy office space is cheaper, housing is more casily found, with some probable exceptions, and there would be an added empioyment potential. But why limit your advocacy ta decentralized government offices? Why not include industries that are capable of being decentraliz- ed in youm recommendations? One need oniy look at the quick- hy growing suburbs of Toronto ta sec that decentrahization o! in- dustry bas aready begun ta some extent.I I said above tbat I agrce with your economic rcasoning for de- centralization but ta my mind econamic reasons, though im- portant, do flot present the great- est argument for decentrahiza- tion. The 'greatest argument is ta be found in a contrast betwecn human bappincss found in the large cities and in the smailcr municipalities. And heme 1 speak with some authority baving spent several years in urban surround- ings. Surely, the wcckly exodus o! eastward-bound cars from To- mronta which formn their contin- uous uine on aur front street ev- cry Friday evening and Saturday and create an undesireable and unbcalthy atmosphere pcrvaded by carban monoxide (onc bas ta aimost duck araund the corn- er ta obtain a decent breath of fresh air), is evidence that great- cm buman liappincss is found in smailer localities and rural dist- ricts. How cager and happy the passengers of these cars sccm as they head eastward for a week- end at the cottage or a pheasant visit with fricnds in a smaiier community! Haw downcast and like pisoners returning ta their ceils aftcr a short parole many of them scem as they rcturn Sun- day evcning ta their bot city i apartments, long tedious street car rides, and rush-boum traffic hazards! The contrast in living con- ditions between the large city and the smailer iocaiity is not the anly factor in the greater buman happiness ta be found in the lat- ter. A second factor- is the more friendly and ethicai wav in wxhich business is carried on in the smailer community. A job is more apt ta be donc as a service rather than for the profit involv- ed wbere there is a dloser relation- ship between the merchant and consumer. the bousebolder and contractor, or the milkman and bousewife. It is my contention that this ca-operative spirit is lacking in many instances in the langer community. There is a third and final fac. tor that léads ta greater happiness in a small community. Today it seems as though material well- being symbolized by the modemn car, refrigerators and electnical appliances of ail sorts is the es- sential element in human hap- piness, but there is also another and more satisfying ingredient in happiness found in the dignity of man. The dignity of man is best defined as the pnide a man has in bis ability ta do things and do themn weli whether it be aI work, around the home, in pub- lic service, or in sports and recre- ationai past times. Today wbile there is pnide nemaining in some of the crafts like building andi plumbing and in the professions, there is little pride ta be found in the mass production of the fac- taries. Hence many must find their pride and dignity at home, i0 public service, or in recrea- tion. Unfortunately the iarge city is lacking in opportunities bore. Many city homes are small and toa often consist o! a couple of roams in an apartment bouse. The opportunities for public ser- vice through membership in ser- vice clubs, membership on coun- cils, or for young people's work are more numerous and much mare rewarding in a spiritual sense in the smaller community. Finally, il is a generaliy accepted fact that healtbful recifeationaI facilities for bath yaung and aid are woefuliy inadequate in the large city, the weekly line of bumper-to-bumper traffie on aur front street again bearing tes- timany. ta look with awe and envy on the steady line of streamlined new cars that pass tbrough aur town each weekend, but we shouid reaiiy pity their occupants when we consider their mare cnowded living conditions, the more un- scrupulous business wonld in which they live, and the limited1 scope for the development of the1 NE WTON VILLE Mrs. Lennox Vasey, Port Mc- Niois spending a few days with ber parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
