Bowmanyille Office of The Times. REPRESENTATIVE--RICHARD COWAN i 0 ORONG DEFEATED. BY NEWCASTLE ~~ IN CLOSE GAME Score Was 4 to 3 in Game Replete With Exciting Incidents (By Staff Reporter) wmanville, June 26.--New- cap le fave another win to their . .gredit as a result of their defeating 1 Orono, in the Big Four League, 4 to 3. In a game that was close throughout with many tight squeezes Newcastle showed their superiority near the last to come across with a clean cut win, Orono and Newcastle have thus split their two games Orono having won the first. The Newcastle battery, Cav- erly and Brown was just as strong as ever, Caverly holding Orono in hand for the first half of the game. As usual when it comes to batting Caverly added another list of hits to his credit, Lycett and Winter, the Stirling Orono battery were not so far behind the New- castle boys. West got the hest hit for Orono when he banged out a two-bagger as did Caverly. A big discussion arose when the plate umpire refused to go hehind the "bat. He umpired, the balls and strikes from behind the piteher. When he went beyond his position and called a man 'out at secon for Newcastle the fun began with Orono putting up a rightful kick. The line ups were: Orono Position Lycett pitcher Winter catcher Cormisk 1st base West 2nd base Couch, short stop Gilfillan 3rd base - Graham left field Lytle right field Watson centre field Newcastle Caverly Brown T.

This was quite an upset in the league as the Diamonds were not conceded a chance, They were not, however, going to be the footstool for the other teams all sca- son and as a result. went into the game bound to win. The Pirates went mto the game minus two of their aces, Bill Corden, their crack first baseman and Piper, their short stop. The Pirates were too confident of winning and were due to have to have some of "this confidence taken from them. After the balls had been retrieved from the outfields and the dust and smoked cleared away the score was 9 to 4 for the Diamonds. Because of their win over the Pie rates, the Diamonds believe that they can repeat their performance elses where and intend to go right inte the following games in the same way. The game was tast throughout an was filled with plenty of action from start to finish, as the home runs prove, Osborne went the whole route for the Bowmanville Diamonds and pitched stirling ball, is partner, Bates, upheld him in his usually fine style and the two combined to play one of the nicest games of the league «0 far. Hooper who started on the mound for the Pirates had to be re- lieved after several home runs had been crashed out by Dutch Osborne who finished the game in a whirlwind of play. Before Dutch went into the game, however, the damage had been 'THE OSHAWA DAILY, TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26, 1929 EE EEEEEEE----S--"--,"--,------E a ee | Crying Baby Cause of Flood - At Rear of Dominion Store (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, June 26--Yesterday afternoon serious damage was luck- ily avoided in the Dominion Store on King strect when it was discovered that water was coming down from the ceiling upon the goods in the small store room at the back of the store. All the goods that were in the path of .the water were moved and pans were placed to catch the drip- ping. The water was then turned off and an investigation was made. As there were several water pipes be- tween the ceiling and the floor above it was thought maybe one of these pipes had sprung a leak, after a fu- tile search along and about the pipcs an investigation was made on the second floor, The solution of the mystery was found there. The lady in the apartment above was doing up her washing when the baby start- ed to cry. While attending to the baby, the hose from the washing ma- chine in some manner fell upon the floor spreading water everyhere, Be- fore it was placed back into its pro- per position the damage had been done. Fortunately there was little damage donc to the goods in the Dominion Store and the main dain- age which was not very much was to the ceiling of the store room, done and it was too late to make up the required runs to win, Bates, Os- borne and Colwell were the ones who banged out the homers for the Dia- monds, Bates also getting a three bagger. Large knocked 'out the homer for the Pirates while Osborne got the two-bagger. The Diamonds ficlding was very much improved over their former games which amounted to a great deal, The Pirates on the other hand did not turn in as good a game at fielding as their opponents.

The car was coming out on to the highway from a lane and because of heavy traffic on the opposite side of the road, had to swing quickly to avoid any accid- ents. In swinging sharply on to the road, the rea wheels did not have enough room to come out of the lane without slipping into the ditch, which is exactly what happened. The car remained stuck in the ditch and had to be towed from its lodyg- ings. No damage was donc to the car, : BOWMANVILLE PEOPLE EXPECTING A THRILL (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, June 26.--Bowmanville folks will have plenty of thrills sup- plied to them tomorrow evening when Jerry Hudson, world famous human fly -and daredevil of the movies will be in town to pull off his human fly exhibition on the walls and roof of the A.

Dale, LADIES' TEAMS PLAY AN INTERESTING GAME Pickering, June 26.~Even though played not quite according to Hoyle, the baseball game .between two la- dies' teams of the St, Paul's Y.P.S in the park on Monday evening, was a hilarious one both for the players and the spectators. Unfortunately the ladies were not practised and the errors would have covered pages, but neither teams were in a position to ridicule the other on that point, so the whole performance was one of good fun and harmless badinage. The score, at the end of five innings, when the game was called, on account of darkness, stood at 11-4, but which team really won, will remain onc of the dark mysteries of this age.

PANKHURST STATUE IN WESTMINSTER Government Grants Site for Suffrage Leader's Memorial London --It was announced recent- ly that the British Government has granted a. fitting site for the statuc which is to be part of a memorial to Mrs, Emmeline Pankhurst, whose leadership and courage inspired wo- men in their struggle for political enfranchisement. The statue will stand in the Victoria Tower Gardens, beside the Thames and in the shadow of the Houses of Parliament. It is to be in bronze, seven feet high, on a Portland stone base, and Is the work of A. G.. Walker, A R.A, who de- signed and executed the statue of Florence Nightingale in Waterloo Place. The fund of £2,500 which is being collected for the purpose by a com- mittee with Viscountess Rhondda as treasurer, is to be applied to a memo- rial to consist of the statue in West- minster, a headstone for the grave of Mrs. Pankhurst in Brompton ceme- tery, and the portrait of Mrs, Pank- hurst, by Miss 5. Brackenbury, to be Placed in the National Portrait Gal- cry. Mrs, Emmeline Pankhurst was born at Manchester, England, July 14, 1858, and died last year, on June 14. Early in her life she became in- terested in the cause of women's po- litical rights. Her husband, Richard Marsden Pankhurst, was a barrister, who drafted the Women's Property Act in 1882, to woman suffrage. Mrs. Pankhurst was chiefly instru- mental in founding the Women's Social and Political Union on a non- party basis, in October, 1903. After trying constitutional means of gain- ing its object, but without success, the: W.S.P.U. adopted militant meth- ods. Mrs, Pankhurst was arrested : He was entirely in sym- pathy with his wife's views in regard | ment, but short by hunger strikes. The outbreak of the war brought militancy to an end, ayd Mrs. Pank- hurst lent her organization to ware time work. She lived to see the en- franchisement of women for which she had struggled so long. The pre- sent movement for a memorial was started by some of her friends, and it has been subscribed to by groups of women who, whatever they thought militancy, admired the 'self-sacrificing devotion and courage of the leader, HAPPINESS OUT OF FASHION (Elsie Pain in the London Dany Chronicle) The completely happy person, if experienced in anything but gmall doses, is apt to be irritating-- just, as a very immaculate small boy, or a person who never gets hot or dishevelled after a set of tennis, It seems very unfortunate--not to say unfair--that. when happiness and a cheerful dispositipn are such obvi- ously desirable things they should be so unfashionable. They are un- fashionable, in this sophisticated age. To describe anyone as a "jolly girl" may be all right where her own sex is concerned; but it will spoil her chances of exciting masculine interest as effectually a» if she was said to have a shiny nose. To cope with the growing need for assistance to immigrant girls, the Catholic Women's League have tak- en over 4 handsome residence in Edmonton, Alta., to be used as a hos- tel for immigrant girls. Similar has tels are maintained by the league in many centres across Canada.
