REPRESENTATIVE -- JAMES HOLDEN TRAFFIC SIGNALS SATISFACTORY UP 10 THE PRESENT Suggestion Is Made That Left Hand Turns Be Abolished (By Staff Reporter) . Whitby, June 22.--The operation of the new stop-and-go signal proved quite satisfactory to date and it is thought that the system will prove valuable in directing traffic and In preventing accidents, Observation of trafic at this point bas shown but one possible defect in the regulations now in force, This is in 'the case of left-hand turns For instance yestérday afternoon a car approaching Dundas street from the north and a car approaching Dundas street from the south receiv. ed the signal to go. Simultaneously the two cars turned to the west and almost collided with each other while at the same time a pedestrian who was crossing with the green light had to jump back with more than ordinary agility in an effort to avoid being struck. Obviously the pedestrian had the right of way over the car making the left-hand turn but while in law the right-of-way is provided by cer. tain statutory regulations in prac. tice it is generally given to the ob- LORD BYNG who welcomes Labor government .a , Wishes he could return to a: an ww oie A Delightful Breakfast Food made $25.00 Scotland Woollen 8 Rotish, Mgr., 11 Simcoe 8. 18 Simcoe Street, South, | SCREENS | For those screens which give : satisfaction Phone 2354 Millard's will do the rest. Our combination and screen doors are cheapest in the end, MILLARD'S MILL Joct possessing the most weight and greatest power. In other words the pedestrian's right-of-way is more sta tutory than real unless he wishes to brave the encounter with trafic and rest his case on the law courts after risking bis life and limb, Porbidden in Oshawa In Oshawa left-hand turns prohibited at the city's main inter- section, The situation however is different here as the intersection marks the converging of two prov. incial highways and the abolition of left-hand turns would impede trafic from the west, bound for points on the Whitby-Lindsay gwar. Mo- torists however should exercise care in making these turns and wait for pedestrians who are crossing the in. tersection with trafic, Those who do not wish to exercise this care should be charged with violating the High. way Trafic Act, it is claimed by residents of Whitby, WHITBY DEFEATS PORT PERRY, 11-3 Locals' Pitcher Turned in an Exceptionally Fine Performance (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, June 22,~Bhowing more ability with the willow than their op- ponents, Whitby defeated Port Perry 113 in an Interesting South On. tario Softball fixture last night, The visitors' defeat may be blamed in part upon the splendid exhibition of Herb Neal, the locals' smart mounds. man, who allowed but seven hits and is credited with 8 strikeouts, This alone however does not tell the story for Neal pitched a ball which proved difficult to drive any distance, As a general rule the batter found that his would-be hit was well taken care of in the infleld. Naples in the box for Port Perry allowed 10 hits and made 6 strike-outs, The locals showed that they were out to pile up a score right in the first innings and two runners crossed the plate in quick succession, The Port Perry sluggers had gone down in one, two, three order, In the second innings the visitors counted one run while Whitby ad. ded five. Maundrell, local short-stop showed himself to possess strong Babe Ruth tendencies when - he clouted a homer to far left field with two on bases. It was the nicest drive seen at the park for a long time and for a second it looked as though the ball would land out of the lot. Forrester and Neal also scored during this frame while Charl ton popped out to VanNest at 2nd base for the third down, Neither side counted runs during the third innings although Forrester secured a neat riple to right field, The locals did not score again un til the 5th innings when Maundrell was brought home on a single by McCallum, In the 8th frame Port Perry coun. ted two runs. Collacutt singled to right field but I, Harris went out on an easy fly to Maundrell, Naples secured a hit and Collacutt was ad: vanced to 2nd. Brock sent a nice drive down the third base line and Collacutt came home while Naples went to 3rd, Brock gaining 2nd, Daw: son reached lst and H. Harris sent a long drive out to centre field, It was handled nicely by Flannigan but Naples came home on the play when Quinton missed the catch. Brock also tried to make the grade but was put out while running home. The locals increased their lead by scoring three additional runs in their half of the 8th, Port Perry could not score in the 8th and the final count stood at 11-3, The teams: Port Perry---Battery, Naples and I.

It is now general throughout the Province and Whitby is being brought intg line with other municipalities served by the Hydro, The commission has directed the Superintendent to use the new schedule on and "after August 1st next, This will give ample warning to customers of the impending change.
