x Se is WHITBY BONLING CLUB TOURNAMENT GREAT SUCCES Many Outside Rinks Took Part in Interesting Games PORT HOPE RINK WINS Farewell Trophy Went to W. R. McTaggert--Can- _ nington Rink Second (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Jupe 19.--Fine weather favored the second annual tourna. ment. of the Whitby Lawn Bowling £fid Tennis Club held at the club's greens, yesterday. Rinks were gpres- ent from many outside points, in- cluding Oshawa, Bowmanvijle, Port Perry, Cannington, Cobourg, Toronto and Port Hope, and the club grounds presented a gala ap- pearance as the bowlers, dressed in cool summer attire, engaged in this old English sport dating back be- yond the. days of Drake and the Spanish Armada. 'Although there were no Drakes upon the greens, ' the skips of several rinks conduct- ed the game of bowls with a skill dnd coolness which might wel! have graced the doughty admiral, W. R. McTaggert, of Port Hope, succeeded in leading his rink to vietoty in the Farewell trophy com- petition. McTaggert and his clan were up' against Livingston's rink from Cannington in the finals and it proved a close run, the count being 15-12. In addition to cap. turing the coveted cup, each mein- ber of 'the winning rink 'was pre- sented with a fine woollen automo- bile robe. Members of the Cann- ington rink received a double elev tric hot plate apiece. * In the consolation series, D. A. J. Swanson's rink, of Oshawa, won the handsome silver cup donated fo the Bowling Club last year by their own skip. Each member ot the rink was presented with a fine sweater coat, while those in the Nichols' rink, Bowmanville, which took second place in the series, re- ceived a: single electric hot plate each. Although a shower of rain fell early yesterday afternoon, it had little effect upon the tournament and the majority of rinks continu- ed to play in spite of the rain drops. In fact many regarded the shower as beneficial as it made the weather cooler and more suitable for playing. - Through the courtesy of lady members of the club, dinner and supper were provided in the large marquee tent which had been er- ected to the south of the bowling greens. Proceeds from the meals and from the sale of soft drinks and ice cream will be devoted to the work of the club. . The visiting bowlers expressed themselves as highly pleased with the condition of the local greens and the pleasant situation of the club's grounds, Finals in the consolation series were not concluded until after mid- night, last night, as it was neces- sary to:play several extra ends.

CAR COLLIDED WITH TELEPHONE | POLE ON HIGHWAY Driver Escaped With Only a Slight Cut on His Forehead (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, June 20. -- J. Hinckson, Brock street north, had a narrow es- cape from serious injury shortly be- fore seven o'clock last night when his car, a light sedan, collided with a telephone post on the north side of Dundas street at a point just east of the C.P.R. subway. The post was snapped off like a match-stick and the car proceeded for forty feet along the shoulder of the road be- fore it finally came to a stop in the ditch. The right side of the mach- ine was badly damaged but Hinckson escaped with a slight cut on the fore- head. According to information given Chief M. Gunson, Hinckson was travelling west when he swerved out to avoid colliding with a truck ap- proaching in the opposite direction. The truck is owned by the Beaton Dairy Co. of Oshawa, and was driv- en by H. Lynes, Oshawa. The police allege that the truck had defective brakes. TARRING THE ROAD (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, June 20. -- Employees of the department of public highways are engaged in tarring the cracks in the highway between here and Oshawa this week. The pitch is poured into the holes from large ket- tles. The use of tar proves a con- siderable help in retaining a smooth PICKERING Miss Jean Clark, 300000 PICKE Pickering, June 20--Master George Bradley, who sustained severe arm injuries by a fall from a tree a week ago, was released from the Sick Children's Hospital on Tuesday, and is now resting at the home of his parents. His condition is quite fav- ourable. Mr. Wm Murkar and mother, Mrs. John Murkar motored to Ottawa on Monday. Upon their return later in the week they were accompanied by Mrs. Wm, Murkar and sons, who have been visiting friends in Ottawa for several weeks. Mr. John Parker of Dunbarton, was: in the village on Tuesday, call- img on friends. PICKERING TEAM WON BASEBALL GAME Pickering, June 20--Another game of the Pickering Tp. Baseball Lea- ue was played in the Memorial ark here, on Tuesday, evening, be- tween' Audley 'dnd Pickering. The game was well contested, and the score 7-5 gave .the home team the game. 'The' local boys are holding their own in the league, but as there are still thirteen games of the sche- dule to be played, it is hardly pos- sible to determine thg winners yet. NINETY.SECOND BIRTHDAY Pickering, June 20-Mrs, Adelia Cronk, the oldest member of the community celebrated her ninety-sec< ond birthday on Monday, June 17th She has vivid memories of the days when the roads were mere paths from clearing to clearing, and the animals roamed freely through the sh. Toronto, last evening. The accident occurred at the High: land Creek golf course last evening, when Kirkhouse . accidentally drove his car a Ford Model A roadster, over a 60-foot embankment into the creek. The car rolled down the em- bankment, becoming coated with mud but when it hit the bottom the only damage that was done was the bending of a spindle arm that threw the right front wheel slight. ly out of line. Kirkhouse escaped unhurt, and when he drove up to the Cox Motor Sales here a short time after the accident, under its own power, $2.60 repaired all the damage. Kirkhouse was described LA the garage men as most fortun- t {MONSTER PARADE | ONE OF FEATURES OF STREET FAIR (Continued from page 3) girl driving a tricycle, designed to represent a swan. The decoration was extremely well done and de- served merited mention. One par- tieular clown ed up in general professional. regalia, was also pop- ular and earned the decision of the judges. The clown wore a brown and red costume with puffs on the side. Two clowns, regular acro- bats they were, and dressed entire- ly in white, even with waite faces, although they were far from be- ing 111, were entered in the twin clowns' class and easily walked away with the honors for this sec- tion of the awards. Bryce and. Bail- ey's Band won the jazz band, which "footed" it during the course. of the parade. But there was also an award for the best jazz band, comic, of course, which was "trucked" around the course. This award went to the band in the Coleman truck, A notable achievement for a child was that of George Wilson, B-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. William G. B. Wilson, 257 Albert street, who steered his own minia- ture automobile - throughout the entire parade. An Oldsmobile, so old that it had but two cylinders and want- ing a great deal of paint and var- nish, proved too humorous for the judges to pass up, and they gave the prize for the oldest car to make the course of the parade under its own "steam" to this entry. The car well earned fits deserts. It might be mentioned that the car was a real antique and was pro- pelled by gas vapour alone. It ra- ther appeared, however, that the youthful driver was suffering from a back trouble, for the manage- ment of the vehicle necessitated his sitting very erect in, his seat. Mention might also be made of an- other "old car," which carried its spare tire at the end of a rope about ten feet behind the car ftself, The spare tire appeared to be the only useful - part about the ma- chine, although it completed the course with now and then a hefty push by the clowps. Other Winners To Siberry"s went the prize for the best decorated car. The car was neatly arranged in colorful streamers. The Star Bakery had a neatly decorated automobile truck, and won recognition for efforts ex- pended to make it so attractive. To the Weston Bakery Company went the prize for the best deliv- ery wagon display. The cars were all fixed up in "their Sunday best" and favorable comment went in their direction. The Old Covered Wagon "Covered Wagon days' returned with a vengeance last night, for about the middle of the parade there appeared a real old timer. Horses which looked as if they had gone through more than one In- dian escapade, because of the har- ness and fixtures, were pulling a rough wagon over which was hung a sheet of canvas. Inside the wagon were all the implpe- ments necessary for tilling the land in the days of Buffalo Bill, and fodder for the horses in the shape of hay and straw were also includ- ed in the household articles list. And grandma and grandpa, dur- ing the early days on the prairies apparently scared of hidden Indi- an bands, were also there, and oc- cupied the hard wooden seats with a stoicism almost akin to bravery. "A long, lean" whip was grasped in the hand of the driver while grandma saw to it that the the wagon. Boy Scouts' Section There were a number of entries in the Boy Scouts' section. The troop, however, which appeared to advantage was the Second Oshawa Troop and the vrize was awarded to them, Many attractive floats featured the parade and it was easily seen that considerable time and energy had been expended in the prepara- tion of the floats. Gaily decorat- ed autos and shined-up motor cy- cles were also exhibited, and al- though a prize could not be gives for every one, fit was a dificult task for the judges to decide the winners. Musical accompaniment was fare nighed by a number of bands. The Oshawa police department and the fire department were also repre- sented in the parade and were a distinctive feature. Those Representad Those companies which were re- presented were: The Regimental Band, the Boy Scouts, the Wolf Cubs, the Oshawa Juvenile Lacross team, the Moffatt Motor Sales, the Oshawa Lumber Company, the Williams Piano Com- pany, Coleman's Cartage, the Ad- ams Furniture Company, Citizens' Band, Toronto Jazz Band, Wes- ton's Bread Company, Regal Bak- eries, Port Perry Band, Carew Lumber Company, Salvation Army Band, Oshawa Laundry Company, the Ontario Motor Sales, Oshawa Clown Band, the Geperal Motors Maintenance Company, Generator and Starter Company, Fife and Drum bands from Oshawa and Port Perry, Jury & Lovell's, Siber- y's, M.

Bowmanville started out with some fine play, but could not seem to keep up with the faster Newcastle crew near the last. The game was full of thrills with many long clouts, with none however good for circuit. Caverly, pitcher for Newcastle has a str habit of winnipg or trying to win' his own games, judging by the hits he makes, Last week, against the Pirates, he crashed out a homer with the bases full and against the Black Diamonds he banged out a threebagger. Newcastle had faur hits, two three baggers by Cavesly and Graham, one two bagger by Moise. Bowmanville had four hits also but not for such distances. Bates and Os- borne getting the honours with two baggers. A feature of the game Was a fine running catch made by Thack- ery, who tore in from left field to make a one-arm catch of a short fly. Moise for Newcastle pitched the first four innings, holding the Black Dia- monds hitless. Caverly was the next in line. Bowmanville Black Diamonds used four pitchers before the oncom- ing Newcastle boys and they were not enough to stop the terrific on- slought of Calverly's hard-hitting de- mons. Wright and Osborne handled the game. The line-ups were:-- an Black Diamonds Bates G. Osborne Zack E. Caldwell B. Caldwell S. Piper Thurston Tudor Malley MOTORIST IS FINED FOR RECKLESSNESS H. Osborne Also Has His License Suspended For 20 Days (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, June 20--The case of H. Osborne who was brought before Magistrate Warde on a charge of reckless driving was settled out of court, Osborne paying $10.00 and costs and having his license suspend- ed for twenty days. : The Chief has issued a warning against the use of sirens on bicycles. He has warned a number of boys about these already and the sooner the others get rid of them the better it will be, These sirens are strictly forbidden in larger centres such as Oshawa, and the chief says they are not wanted cither around Bowman- ville. THE PLACE WHERE THE RAIN STOPPED (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, June 20.--~There was some place where the rain must end and the dry part of the earth begins. Several motorists travelling east to- wards Bowmanville stopped near the top of the long hill before entering Newcastle because of the heavy downpour of rain which made it hard driving. The rain was litterly coming down in torrents and for a while n seemed that it would never end. If these motorists had kept on going and passed through Newcastle, they would have been out where it was high and dry as the rain stopped near the edge of Newcastle. It scems strange that one field could be under a heavy downpour of rain and the one beside it dry, but that is what happened in this casc. ALARM BELL RANG; NOBODY KNOWS WHY (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, June 20. -- Yesterday afternoon the bell over the Bank of Commerce began to toll and kept up the tolling for about five minutes. A number of people hearing it thought that there was a fire although the siren did not go. Those interested persons gathered at the fire hall but no fire was reported although all was in readiness for the gala. The tolling happened just after the heavy part of the thunder shower and after the lightning. Many thought that the lightning might have struck a build- ing, but that was not so. To many of these people, the tolling of the bell is still a mystery.

Cobert apparently applied his brakes on the slippery pavement dur- ing the rainstorm of yesterday af- ternoon, while on the hill west of Cream of Barley tourist camp, and the truck slewed around and rolled over into the ditch. The cab. of the truck was smashed in and other damage was done, but Cobert escaped unhurt.
