THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1920 C. C.of. C. to Announce New Industry to City Council Monday, Whithy Girls Defeat Chevs 18.1 7in League Fixture County Town Damsels Nose| Out Oshawa Team, Scor- ing Winning Run in Ninth ~--~Whitby Have a Smart Team and Will Be Right in Running Though the Season (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, June 16.--With the score 17 runs all in the last of the ninth innings the Whitby Girls" Softball Team earned the winning run with one on bases and none down in the opening game of the Oshawa Lades' Softball League played with the Chevrolet Ladies' Team of Oshawa, at the town park, last night, Before one of the largest crowds ever witnessed at the park for a game of any sort the logal girls came through for a victory in the trying last minutes of play and roused deafening cheers from the hundreds of spec- tators, Ruth Robertson, snappy little shortstop, . made bounding hit away out to the right field which brought F, Scott, the sterling third base player, waltzing in for the winning rum It was a close game throughout and just a matter of touch and go. Previous to the game the players of the visiting team in their color- ful yellow and black uniforms and the girls of the local aggregation paraded to the ball park from the town hall headed by the Whithy Citizens' Band and Reeve Albert Jackson and Deputy Reeve R. J. Underwood, representing the town council, At the park the band played several selections after which Reeve Jackson went to bat with Deputy Reeve Underwood in the box and Councillor Mowat re- ceiving behind® the platter, After making two fouls, the reeve con- nected with one of Pitcher Under- wood's sizzling throws and sent the leatherbound sphere soaring far, to the ovation of the large audi- ence, Mr, Jackson then declared the Oshawa Ladies' Softball League officially opened and announced that all those interested in clean sport would he welcomed by the girls at their games, Oshawa went into bat first against M, Forester on the mound for Whitby and Jean Robertson catching. The Chevs scored one fun in the innings when D, Kennedy was brought home on a triple by E, Blliott, The next three batters however were put out and Whitby went in to bat with one run, against them. The local girls go: off to a good start shewing good batting style and runs followed in quick succession. J, Parker and M. Blow both scored while the next two batters went down. R. Robert- son reached first on a nice hit fol- lowed by a dandy home run by E. Watson running up two more runs, Jean Robertson made first with the bases clear and stole 2nd and 3rd slipping home on an overthrow after H, Connors had hit a safety, The next batter was put out on an easy fly. Whitby had a four run margin on the innings. The second frame brought bet- ter luck for the Chevys and D. Ken- nedy, A, Walker, B. Blair and V. Fulton all managed to reach home platter before the locals tightened up, Whitby however continued its lead when J. Parker was brought home on a triple from Mary Blow. This eoncluded the scoring for the innings. Oshawa went ahead in the third innings when two more runs were scored. The Whitby girls continued in the scoring however when Jean Robertson hit a triple to left field the long, and slipped home On am error at third. The tally card showed 'an even 7-7 count at the close of the innings. The Chevs showed splendid form in the fourth when I. Goold, M. El- liott and A. Cringle all counted runs. The visitors seemed to pos- sess some heavy hitters whose bat- ting was beginning to tell. Mabel Elliott particularly possessed the gift of the swat and walloped two homers, one in the sixth and again in the ninth, Fortunately for the locals, the bases were empty both times. When Whitby came to bat the Motor City girls had made some change in lineup shifting I. Goold from the box to first base while Vivian Elliott took the mound. A. Cringle at 1st went out of the game while E. Ellfott was substituted by Dot Moffat at short. The change apparently had some effect for the locals went score- less for the inning.s Each team tallied once. in the fifth and in the sixth the Chevs apparently took the lead with two more runs. Whitby however made a spurt and good batting on the part of J. Parker, M, Blow, F. Scott, R, Robertson and E. Watson resulted in four more runs thus tying the count to an even 12-12, In the seventh, with one down and two on bases, Mabel Elliott gave two more runs for the Chevys with a dandy triple hit, She was left stranded at third however as airtight ball on the part of the locals made the efforts of the next two batters useless, Things looked good for Whithy in the seventh as three more ruins were scored in quick succession by hard hitting on the part of MeBride, Parker, Blow and Forester, The bases were load- ed when KE. Watson came to ba and struck out a low grounder near first base, The Chevs showed speed in fielding putting the bat- ter out at first base and knocking off Whithy's hopes by putting two more down with a smart double force between 3rd and 2nd. The eighth innings went score- less for the Chevs while the locals managed to bring in - two more runs, In the ninth however the visitors fied things up when Mabel Elliott hit a homer with the bases clear and A. Walker brought in L. Holmes in a triple hit with two down, With the crowd roaring for a break Whitby went into bat and I. Scott was walked, Ruth Robertson the ke Casey 1, faced the pitcher but unlis that storied player saved the day for the locals when she hit out a low fast ball bringing "in the runner with time 10 Jeie, The lineup: Chevrolets--battery, I, - Goold and V, Fulton; infield, A.

When the liner was herthing at Liverpool the Amer- ican was saying good-hye to the said patriot, and added, "Say I want to hey a look at this I'l Grant National race of yours, Tell me, where's the best location to see it from?"

OSHAWA MAN GIVEN FOUR MONTHS ON NEGLIGENCE COUNT Frank Page Found Guilty-- Result of an Auto Accident Whitby, June 16.--¥rank Page, of Oshawa, was sentenced to a fuur- month terny in the Guelph Reform. atory and an indeterminate period not to exceed two months by-Judge Ruddy in the county court cham- bers yesterday, when His Honor found the defendant guilty of erim- inal negligence in connection with an accident which occurred on King street west, Oshawa, on the night of Dec. 17th lasy, in which a car, driven by Mr. Millman, Oshawa, was, struck by a taxi driven by Page, causing injury to Mr, Mill- man and to Mr. and Mrs. Mills, two other occupants of the car, Page, who pleaded not guilty, was represented hy Mr, Stanley Daug- las, Oshawa barrister. Evidence was given ' by Mr, George Hezzlewood, assistant secre- tary of General Motors of Canada, proving that shortly before tae ac- cident, Page passed him on the highway, between Whitby and Osh- 'awa, driving east at an excessive rate of speed, Mr. Hezzlewood claimed that he was forced to drive his own car, a LaSalle, almost to the shoulder of the road in order to avoid being hit by Page's car. He attempted to follow Page to Oshawa but lost track of Rim, al- though he speeded his own machine to 45 miles an hour. The condi- tion of the road was dangerous and His Honor did not think that the accused had exercised necessary precautions, thus accounting for his striking Mr. Millman's car af- ter it had backed out of the lane to the highway, had been taken out of reverse gear, and was in acceler- ation forward. Crown Attorney McGibbon pointed out that when the accident occurred, Page was already under suspended sentence on a reckless driving charge and had only the day previous received permission from the police to drive his taxi to enable him to earn money for Christmas. In passing sentence Judge Rud- dy strongly recommended that the prisoner learn another business than taxi driving, He was con- vinced that Page was endangering the public hy furious driving on the night of the accident, READERS' VIEWS ROTARY PARK Editor Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Siri--May I have the privilege of asking you to publish this letter in your paper so that I may publicly express my appreciation as a citizen of Oshawa for the splendid playing park and equipment recently pre- sented to the children of Oshawa by the Rotary Club, I have had occasion to pass the park several times the last week and it is simply teeming with frolicking kiddies having the time of their young lives. The real reason for expressing my appreciation in this way, is the joy and pleasure it has brought to my own children. They have visited the park every day and are just full to the brim, every evening with stories of the splendid time they are having. I drive them to the park at noon and pick them up again at 5 o'clock and even then they are loath to come away. This is a real contribution to the children and is deserying of all the praise that parents can give. Yours truly, Fred A. Hardman, Train for Business 2.
