These boys are anxious to meet all comers in this kind of a race. In Bowmanville there is no organ- "ized track club-as in Oshawa. Any local boys accepting this challenge would be doing so on their own hook and would deserve the backing up of the citizens on such a race. There is. no doubt that there are many lo- cal boys who would turn out to be * ardent followers of road racing if they had a little practise and proper supervision, In case any persons de- sire to accept this challenge, they are requested to get in touch with George Moss, 242 Eulalie Ave. Osh- awa. - BEACH ATTRACTS MANY VISITORS Bowmanville's Lake Shore Is Gaining in Pop- ularity (By Staff Reporter; Bowmanville, July 31. -- Bowman- + ville Beach is fast becoming a choice spot for picnickers and visitors, Its fame as such is quickly spreading up and down the 'shore.

The game was fast with "some snappy fielding on both sides. Roven did 'the hurling for the Whiz and showed considerable improve- ment over the way he started out in the first series. Seymour was on the mound for the Foundry and pitched a steady game. Both pitchers de- "livered some real nice ball, but the bats of the Whiz boys found the ball _oftener, especially Cole's bat. Cole slammed out a homer with one on to put the Whiz boys up. The Whiz got into an carly lead and kept up right through. Some sparkling plays "were made both on the field and at the plate by both teams. The line- ups were,-- 'Whiz Colwell _Roven Corden "Brown 'D. Piper S.

Every member of the Washington club except Hadley hit at least once and scored one or more runs . Thousands Now Eat . of "A Delightful Breakfast Food LS Daily TRC GIAGE INBOWMANVILLE + PUT INTO EFFECT New Parking Regulations "Are Provided For by Council hn (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, July i accord- ance with the resolution passed at the last meeting of the council, that the police committee be given per- mission to mark out parking lines on King: street and on Division street near Trinity church on the west side, several men got out the paint pot and brush early yesterday morning and went at the job. All the parking line§ were marked out all along King street and the block| on Divi- sion "too. Parking along these two streets now has been changed from angle parking to straight parking, with parking on one side of the street only along Division near the church. The reason for this is obvious. On Saturday nights and other busy times the angle parking on both sides of the street, especially along King, practically blocks the thorough- fare, and becomes hard for any per- son driving 'through to pick a safe way along the route without hitting cither the cars parked or the op- posite bound traffic. This: had been pointed out to: the council at the last meeting byssev- eral men, who stated that they never drove their cars down town on Sa- turday nights, but parked them along some side street and if they had to go to the other side of the town they drove along the streets north or south of Queen. It is hoped that straight parking will be an answer to much of this trouble. On Division street, it was pointed out, the traffic congestion was bad near the church on Sundays. Peo- ple parked their cars on both sides of this narrow street making it im- possible for a two way traffic. In the case the council decided that the parking should be limited to one side of the street, the west side, Another important question brought up in connection with the traffic pro- blem was that of having traffic sig- nals at the corner of Temperance and King streets. It was believed that the traffic was not heavy enough for that to justify the expense. MOTORIST FINED FOR RECKLESS DRIVING (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, July 31. -- William Davidson of 81 Gladhill Ave, Toron- to, appeared before Magistrate Ward in police court on a charge of reck- less driving, consisting of cutting in.

It seems that there are many good teams in the district from Welcome, Garden Hill, Wesleyville, Starkville, Kendal and Newtonville, says the Guide, and then there is Orme Gams. by's loop with four good teams ready | to go if they could be grouped up. The last reference is, of course, to the local Big Four League, but why refer to it as Orme Gamsby's loop. He, of course, deserves a lot of cre- dit as to its operations, but there arc others just as deeply connected with the work. "Even if all the teams mentioned," says the Guide, "could not be brought together, perhaps some of them could, and even if nothing more could be done than getting the winners of the two groups together in a three team series with the Port Hope intermed- iates it might be worth while. One thing it would do, and that is it would satisfy both the local playe:s and the fans that there is plenty of good material right in this district which should be encouraged to get into something better than just coun- ty leagues. If the managers of the dif- ferent groups will succeed in doing this this fall they would be surprised at the result. They will also be doing something in advancing the game and the players as well. "We believe," says the Guide, "that the project is worth discussing and a little publicity | may have the effect of getting thuse | in authority interested." | T'his idea as suggested by the ball | fan in Port Hope and as pushed by | the Guide is a real good one. The schedule for the Big Four League is over and the playoffs about to start. Newcastle and the Black Diamonds are out of it and unless exhibition games are arranged will be through for the scason. No doubt, the teams in the county group 'around Port Hope would hke to arrange a serics | of games with any of the teams in | this group, The games supplied in | the Big Four League have been real | stuff and should outside competition | be arranged the games would be ev- en better, The suggestion that the Port Hope intermediates bg brought | together in a post season series isi another good one. Last year Bow-| manville had a strong intermediate | team in the Central Ontario loop und | this year they had none. Most of the players are still in Bowmanville and Port Hope intermediates would not have any walk away in this scrics if arranged, There is something in these sug- | gestions that would bear othe] TODAY'S LIST OF AUTOS CRASH Windsr, July 31, -- Overcme by heat while driving in Windsor yes- | terday, Harold Turner, 42 years old, Windsor, fainted at the wheel of his car.
