Young ple THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1928 Seaplane of Canadian Airways Ltd. Is Forced Down in Harbor Here Forced down on account of fog and then slightly disabled when the starting gear ratchett broke, a Canadian Airways Limited sea plane is at present in the harbor at Oshawa-on the Lake undergo- ing a minor repair and awaiting further orders before starting out again for its destination in Mus- koka, Lake of Bays. The seaplane was built for bombing service during the Great War and is at tracting much interest while it is floating calmly on the waters of Lake Ontario under the vigilant eye of A. Bannister, assistant pil- ot and mechanic. the seaplane, with J. W. Clarke, formerly of the British Air Force and A. Bannister, who has served with the American Marine Aviators, in charge, set out from their base at Montreal a few days ago detailed to government ser vice in Muskoka, After remaining in Kingston two nights ago they set out on the last leg of their journey yesterday but on reach. ing this district found a very heavy fog and dense clouds to com- bat with and fearing they would lose their way, they landed at Oshawa-on-the-Lake yesterday af- ternoon where they intended to re- main until the atmospheric condi- tions improved, When they attempted to crank their engine prior to leaving, how- ever, the crank ratchet broke and they were forced to remain until they secure the necessary repairs, In the meantime, J, W, Clarke has gone on to Toronto while A, Ban- ister is taking charge of the plane, No serious damage was done and Mr, Bannister told The Times this afternoon that the 'plane would be able to go on its way before Friday, MAN GIVES POLICE STRENUOLS TIME 1S LIQUOR CRAZED Fred Szewsky Blames Epi- sode on Bolshevists-- Has Head Gashed Fred Szewsky, Ukrainian who came here only a short time ago from Nova Scotia arraigned before Magis- trate Hind in police court this morn- ing charged with being intoxicated in a public place. Fred had his head swathed in bandages this morning and was wearing a shirt that was blotched with blood as the result of his eventful episode yesterday prior to being arrested on Drew street south by P.C, Wright at 5.10 o'clock, According to Fred's statement in olice court this morning there h pave a little party in his neighbor- hood in which he and some Russians tock part. During the course of the afternoon, conversation trended to "world affaus" and presently the Bolshevist regime in the land of the bear and vodka came up. Apparently fed up with the too ardent language of the Russian colony present, Fred remarked that the Bolsheyists and Bolshevism in genera! were no good, whereupon he was clubbed over the head and given the sireet to con- tinue his party if he so wished. He had had some good liquor before being removed to the street, however, and so he was in no hurry to go home although he was bleeding pro- fusedly about the head. Tt was in this condition that P.C. Wright ap- rehended him and placed him be- ind the bars in the police station after a merry ride in the police car. When arraigned this morning the effects of the liquor had left him and he was no longer in the half-dazed half-wild condition he exhibited in the station last night. He pleaded i through the court interpreter ilkam Igel and was fined and costs with an option of 30 days at d labor, gi Ao was in a sad state when he was landed in the cells, He con- tinued his demonstration for some time even failing to respond to treat- ment by a physician to c alm him. GIRL CHARGED WITH RECKLESS DRIVING Staff Reporter) , 'Bowmanville, Aug. 7.--Alva Mal- fory, Newcastle, was arrested on Saturday night late by Chief of Po- lice CS. Venton on t 'chargt of reck- fess driving and will appear before Magistrate W. F. Ward this after- noon. The charge was laid following an accident at Newcastle in which Mallory hit a car driven by 3 Mr. Yardley. Both cars were badly dam- aged in the crash and Yardley was badly cut about the head and face and is suffering from shock. The charge was laid by traffic officer G. a= (By ad | tesy o 1 FIRE HOSE TRUCK IS ---- it might be termed a "house cleaning™ or just repairing, the members of the local fire d:- partment were busy over the holi- day giving one of the hose trucks the "once over" with red paint. A civic holiday means practically nothing to the shift on duty at the fire hall, other than the apparent fact that more ple are away at their homes and consequently ihe danger of conflagration outbreaks are minimized. So to employ their spare time, they are making the best of the older busses used in the fighting fire occupation and mak- ing a fine paint job of them. There will now be no excuse for anyone to vouch information that the fire department vehicles are in- visible in their trips about the city, HOLIDAY IN CITY IS WELL OBSERVED Threatening Weather Fails to Dampen Enthusiasm of Merrymakers Despite the fact that the weather was far from encouraging for picnics, a large crowd gathered at Lakeview Park Saturday and yesterday to cete- brate the holiday, Sports, picnics and entertainments of every type were in order, and the lake and Alex- andra Park furnished their share for the throngs that patronize these re- sorts on civic holidays. There seemed to be an apparent lack of enthusiasm toward the holi- day yesterday, the only reason being that it probably was not advertised to as great an extent locally as it might have been, The same condi- tions seem to have prevailed else- where, Another strong fact to sup- port this theory was found in the realization that a few stores in the business section of the city remained open during the morning, closing up however in the afternoon and even- ing, , A usual, the theatres were consid- erably well-patronized. Two splen- did feature pictures were booked for the occasion, and at the afternoon and evening performances, the houses at the Regent and New Martin Thea- tres were filled to capacity, The senior O.A.L.A, Lacrosse game between the Torontos and the Osh- awa Motors provided additional in- terest, and was well attended, the latter team capturing honors for this hy ¢ with a final score of 4 to 2. Ithough bathing at the lake beach has been lessened for different rea- sons, mainly on account of the un- suitable weather, different bands of people made up the picnic parties which were dotted over the grounds at Lakeview. Dancing as usual was in full force and enthusiasm in this respect was not dampened in the least by the frowning elements. The park entertainments did a whirlwind busi- ness, A number of firms from the Queen City held their annual picnics there and expressed splendid admir- ation both for the service rendered at the Jubilee Pavilion and the cour- the hooth 'agents and others responsible for placing Oshawa firm- ly on the map. It is next to impossible for anyone to place a check on the number of pictiickers leaving the city on a civic oliday in motor cars for outside points. It is easily ascertained that the tired businessman with his wife and family wish to roam a little when opportunity presents itself and since the highways are for their use, they must go at. random, . Besides numerous family outings and re-unions, three large organi- zations visited Lakeview Park yes- terday. Coming in three Toronto Transportation Company busses, Victoria Park Christian Church held their annual picnic here while over 150 happy kiddies made the Park the scene of Scarborough Public School's annual outing. Epiphany United Church was also present in large forces for the holi- day. But for the unfit weather five hundred people would have at- tended the lake on Sunday for the Sons of Israel picnic which was tlanned by the Toronto organization on that day. On Saturday, perhaps the most unusual picnic of the year was seen when 300 men, all of them with an arm or a leg mis- sing, took part in the Amputation Association's picnic from Toronto. FACES CHARGE OF RECKLESS DRIVING STRUCK OSHAWA CAR St. Catharines, Aug.. 6.--Charg- ed with reckless driving, Joseph Jaruszawicus of 1790 East Falls street, Niagera Falls, N.Y. was brought here at midnight last night by H. R. Ransom, Provincial constable at Niagara Falls. He was released on $200 cash bail to appear again. His wife, who was injured was taken to the hospital.

While par- ticularly ruinous showers. were ex- perienced in central districts there was a fairly general downpour in all parts of the province during the past week. Haying operatioins, al- ready much delayed, received a fur- ther setback, and the harvesting of wheat, barley and alsike crops which are now ripe, was checked later crops, particularly oats, are in many cases flattened to the ground. The effect of the bad weather on the al- sike crop 1s perhaps most serious. A good portion of this crop has been cut and all of it was ripe. Much seed was beaten out by the storms, (By Staff Reporter) - Whitby, Aug. 7. -- A survey of agricultural conditions in this dis- triet would indicate that the erops have suffered considerabl: damage from the storms and unusually wet weather of the last week, In cer- tain places fields of oats and other grains have heen heaten down by wind and riin, One need not travel far to see acres of hay which should have been drawn to the mow two weeks ago, lying rain-soaked and possibly ir- reparabhly damaged. Many farm- ers had cut their fall wheat just previous to the wet spall, but have been forced to leave it in stocks in the open. Root erops, however, have not heen affectzd and are well advanced.

Weather conditions at present were said to be not very favorable. There are already at the scene four sets of diving apparatus and also a mechan- ism to supply the submarine with fresh air. J The submarine was engaged in an attack manoeuvre with the fleet sev- en miles west of the Island of Brioni, which lies near the northeast coast of the Adriatic. It emerged sudden- ly under the prow of the destroyer Giuseppe Missori, which struck it. 4 The F-14 sank at once to the bot- fom in 40 metres of water. The ex- act position of the submarine has not yet been found, but observers from a hydro-aeroplane said they had sighted it a little way from where the warship Brindisi lies at anchor. Admiral Foschini was on board the Brindisi, and has taken charge of the salvage operations: The F-14 is one of the coast de- fense submarines of the Italian Navy, CLING CLOSE TO FRIENDS If you should have a trusted friend, Take care lest you abusé him; such, Crops Throughout Province Seriously Damaged by Rains It oft takes years to make him~ PONTIAC CAR ON ITS FOURTH DAY (Continued from page 1) guessing contest for the winning of the Pontiac Coach are set down in eompact form and are necessar- ily complete in every detail.

WORK PROGRESSED AT NEW HOTEL The Rivetters Spent a Busy Time on Civic Holiday Yesterday, a civic holiday, when most workmen are supposed to be on a holiday, constituted a record for rivetting on the job at Osha- wa's new hotel the *Genosha." The gang now on duty were work- ing full time yesterday from 7.30 in the morning until five o'clock at night when they heated, placed, bucked up and drove 460 rivets, This figure shows that nearly a rivet a minute was laid home dur- ing the day. ' The building is certainly taking on the proportion of the edifice it it so be, and the imagination could make a fair estimate in what way Oshawa's new hotel is going to turn, The electric system is being installed at present, and men are at work on the sewer mains, the trenches for which have al- ready heen dug and placed into shape to receive the massive pipes. The contractors are now await- ing the huge 20,000 gallon house water tank to be installed on the roof, although hidden from view, The tank will measure 6 by 20 feet and will be eylindrical in shape, The water system in the Buiding will, as customary, be the recirculating system, .

Immediately after the mid-day meal, a general movement in the direction of the boat-house took place and soon all available canoes were out on explorations up the Rouge River, Walking, swimming, canoeing and enjoyment of the sur. roundings at large, occupied the afternoon until five-thirty when supper was served. The final quoit contests were then played, there was a pillow fight for men, a bail- throwing contest for girls and last but no means '-st, B tre L} hunt, _ An elaborate map of the Rose- bank territory and a not too em. lightening log had been prepared, and after much taking of notes, mental and otherwise, selecting of partners and excited consultations the whole party set off, together at first but gradually drifting in different directions as individual interpretation of the log guided or misguided them.

E, Mara- thon Swim, and Miss Ma. bel Lander, 171 Gowan Avenue Toronto, Carried By High Wind in Dense Fog and in a Rough Sea Over Four Miles -- Se- cure Bearings on Hearing Train Whistle -- Only Presence of Mind Averts Tragedy With death staring them in the face for nearly five hours, Miss Ma- bel Laundon, 23, 171 Gowan avenue, Toronto, and Thomas Nesby, 19, King street, Oshawa, fought the waves and wind in a small row-boat on Lake Ontario between Oshawa-on-the- Lake and Whitby last night. At the end of their eventful trip, they looked much the worse for their hazardous time, the clothing of both being soaked or completely drenched, and their nerves badly shattered, Pre- sence of mind, on the part of the two, however, probably prevented a catastrophe, About four o'clock in the afternoon Nesby took the. boat, asking Miss Laundon to accompany him for a short ride out from the pier near Barnhart's Pavilion. Miss Laundon was visiting at the Beach for the day, and accepted his invitation, They had not rowed far when a thick fog set in and the wind became stronger. Passers-by on the shore remarked at the two setting out under such con- ditions, With the turning of the current in the water of the lake the boat made rapid progress, probably more than either of the two occupants realized, and when Nesby attempted to return to shore he had lost all bearing on direction, on account of the darkness and the fog. The waves and wind at this time were nothing short of a squall, which was made more danger- ous hy the rain. After aimlessly drifting for two or three hours, the two heard the sound of a train whistle and by that sound obtained their direction, Nesby at the oars pulled towards shore, and after a considerable time the boat landed a quarter of a mile west of Whitby Harbor, where they met with a passing car which conveyed them to Whitby, They took a taxi from there back to Oshawa-on-the-Lake. Intermingled with the other usual hazards of the trip was the fact that large waves nearly swamped the small craft, and resulted in shipping considerable water, No tin was avail- able for bailing purposes so the shoes of the occupants were used, They landed on the shore at Whitby at 9.15 o'clock at night. As soon as the fog and storm blew up, residents on shore at the point where the two had set out, became alarmed and roused the neighbor- hood. An alarm was turned into the police and Captain W, K. Culling summoned, Any effort on their part to Jocate the two was in vain, _ Upon returning to Captain' Cull- ing's residence at the lake, a com- plete new outfit of clothes was fur- nished Miss Laundpn by Mrs, Cull- ing. Miss Laundon's parents accompanied her to the Lake here from Toronto returned with their daughter yesterday morning to that city, who had Recent Deaths MARY EDNA GRENNON The funeral of the late Mary Grennon who passed away at Graven- hurst on Wednesday, Aug. 1, was held from the family residence, 124 Church St., on Saturday morning to St. Gregory's church, where Rey.

PICNIC Band of Willing Workers Striving to Make Event Greatest on Record Lack of enthusiasm on the part of officials and executives of the huge General Motors Picnic, sched- uled for Saturday of this week, is an unknown adage, There could never be more willing workers for such an event, Preparations have now attained to such a stage that' it will only require a few morew hours to have things complete in every detail, and at the time of the picnic, no delay whatever will be forced by lack of preparation through the fault of general pres paredness, { Such complete successes have the previous picnics been that it is not the idea of the executive to even think of unfavorable weather or untimed happenings before the Brand celebration, Of special interest are the ens tertainers which will be on we grounds during the day, and any misrepresentation hitherto circulats ed concerning this sidé of the affair is grossly at fault. The greatest sports program, intermingled with a superfine performance of fancy and athletic diving and swimming by a class of professional swims mers and divers will provide an uae paralleled opportunity for citizens of this city, besides employees and their families, of General Motors of Canada, to witness such a demon» stration, Stage attractions taken directly from the highest class of road attractions have heen books ed for the day, and will prove that General Motors' Picnic executives are satisfied with absolutely noth« ing but the best of entertainment for the thousands who are to at- tend this gala day. Musical provision for the day is unexcelled. Such expressions to characterize the preparations of the picnic would be obsolete if re linquished. Four bands are on file for the day. Besides the two local and well-known organizations of musicians, namely, the 34th Regiment Band of Oshawa, and tne Legion Pipe Band of Oshawa, the features are contained In the ate tendance of the 118th Regiment Band of Kitchener, known through= out Canada, and the Kitchener La- dies' Band of .T0 pieces, the largest Ladies' band in Canada, This lat- ter is considered as a fortunate discovery of the executive, who have left no stone unfurned in their efforts to provide the best in musical and other attractionms, Possibly the largest display o§ fireworks ever to heve been wit- nessed in Oshawa and a runner-up with any outside attraction along this line will be in evidence during both the afternoon and evening. There are on schedule 32 pieces of greater firework displays, which will wind up the day "en belle fete." 4 A wedding gown of breath-tak- ing loveliness is made of folds of white tulle, The dress has no trimming except for a cloth of sil- ver train and some orange blos- soms placed almost on the hem.
