SHE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JULY >, es The Whitby Daily Times OSHAWA SOCCER "TEAM WINNERS IN EXHIBITION GAME Whitby Town Defeated by 5 to 1 in Sparkling Exhibition (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, July 31.--Last night at the town park the Oshawa City team played a friendly exhibition game with the Whitby town team, thef ormer winning by a score of 5 to 1. The game proved of great benefit to both teams from a praec- tice standpoint, and also proved in- teresting to the. large crowd of spectators. During the first period the game was very keen and evenly contest- ed, both teams seemed full of pep with the forwards running the ball up and down the field with amaz- ing dexterity and brilliant combina- tion work. Both goal tenders gave a fine exhibition of defending their net, the half ending with the score one all. Sturch opened the scure when he counted on a corner kick for Oshawa and Collisson of Whit- by evened the score soon after when Whitby were given a corner. Collisson intercepting the ball in front of the goal and with a quick drive bulged the net. Quick Scoring After the intermission the Osh- awa players apparently had been pepped up by their coach as they appeared to show more determina- tion and aggressiveness in their style of play and in spite of the Whitby backs putting up a game struggle and McKay making many spectacular saves, Oshawa scoreu 4 goals, bring the score up to 5 to 1. Bailey scored two of the Oshawa goals, while Lobban and Sturch each counted one. In the last half the Oshawa team had two beautifully placed corner kicks right on to the mouth of the goal, but McKay, the Whitby goalie, deftly tipped the ball over the net, much to the delight of the crowd who cheered heartily. Oshawa Aggressive Last night the Oshawa team were very aggressive while the Whitby boys seemed to lack their usual pep and punch, especially in their play in front of their opponents' goal. It was there that Whitby missed several golden opportunities to score. Peter Gow, veteran foot- baller, and left outside for Whitby, had a wonderful chance with the hall almost in the goal mouth, and only the goalie to beat. Peter must have been playing golf yesterday and evidently off his game, as he sliced the ball and missed the net, much to the disappointment of the fans. Management Pleased The management of the Whitby team were well pleased with the attendance at the game, and it showed the appreciation of the fans for the style of play the team is putting up. The fans are taking a good deal of interest in the team and no doubt if the players con- tizue to improve in their game as they have done in the last tew weeks they will no doubt certainly warrant the whole-hearted support of the town. Frank Threadgold, who is a for- mer association referee had charge of the game and his decisions were satisfactory to both players and spectators.

After Breech Block Had Been Partly Opened Léndon, July 31.--A gun acci- dent on the British cruiser Devon- shire which recently cost seventeen lives during exercises in the east- ern Mediteranean was attributed to ""hang-fire'" in an eight-inch gun by an admiralty communique last night. A charge in the gun explod- ed and the explosion, partially un- locking the breechlock ignited the charges waiting to be loaded for the next round. The admiralty explained = that "owing to simultaneous discharge of other guns in the same turret, it was probably thought by the gun crew member controlling the breech mechanism that the gun in question had been fired also and the operation of reloading there fore commenced. "It appears probable the mistake was immediately discovered but be- fore it could be fully rectified by closing the breech, the charge of the gun exploded and the blowout partially opened the breechlock. "The great force of the explo- sion also ignited cordite charges awaiting in their containers to be loaded for the next round." The Devonshire will soon sail for England from Malta for repairs, i ---------- HITS 30TH HOMER Rochester, July 30.--Rochester ev- ened the count with Buffalo .in the present series here today, winning from the Bisons 9 to 4.

Work- ers of Toronto are being called up- on to join hands and demonstrate against imperialist war. In a pamphlet printed yesterday and being distributed this morning, the Toronto Red Day Anti-war cuu- ference calls upon all' workers to gather tomorrow night in Queen's Park to a rally. The meeting, tue pamphlet states, will be addressed .|by Jack MacDonald of the Com- munist party, Lily Himelfarb of the Young Communist league and A. E. Smith, national secretary of the Canadian Labor Defence league. Following the rally and the speeches a mags parad¢, the pam- phlet states, will be held "through Toronto," when the workers will "demonstrate on the streets." Late last night, Chief Constable Draper stated that he knew noth- ing of the proposed parade or rally in Queen's park. No authority had been given for a parade. Permis- sion from the police commission is necessary, he stated, before any parade could be held. ""A thing like that doesn't call for any comment," stated Chief Draper when he heard some of the extracts from the pamphlet. "No permission has been given for any parade." "If a parade is held without per- mission will steps be taken by the police force to carry out the law prohibiting it?"' asked a reporter. "We will deal with any situation that arises as we come to it" re- plied the chief. With bold head lines, the pam- phlet explains in minute detail the plans for the overthrow of the Sov- iet union, the Socialist fatherland, by the united imperialist interests of Great Britain and the Umited States. Under the heading '"The Menace of Imperialist War," the following appears: "A greater world slaughter thun 1914-18. is. facing the international working class. The imperialist powers, headed by Great Britain and the U.S.A. are feverishly pre- paring for a concerted onslaught against the only country where the toiling masses rule. The hatred er imperialism grows more intense with the steady progress of the Soviet Union in the building of the socialist society. "The situation in Manchuria viv- idly demonstrates the real immedi- ate danger of an imperialist attack on the Soviet Union. World im- perialism is openly attempting to provoke the Soviet Union to war through the manoeuvres of its hirl- ings, the Chinese war lords in Man- churia. They have flagrantly vio- lated the treaty regarding the Chi- nese Eastern railway--raided Sov- fet embassies all over China--ar- resting, murdering, deporting Sov- fet citizens. "Chang-Kai-Chek and his Chin- ese war lords . fresh from the slaughter of thousands of Chinese workers and peasants, have massed an army of 150,000 armed mercen- aries and white guards on the Sov- iet frontier, ready to ravage, pill- age and plunder the socialist fath- erland--at the signal from world imperialism. While the mercen- aries and brigands of world imper- ialism are gathering on the eastern frontier of the soviet union, the fascist puppet states of imperial- ism--Pgland, Latvia, Roumania, Finland, Lithuania--are bristling with armaments supplied them by the British, American and French governments, ready to attack the workers' fatherland from the west. Imperialism stands ready to crusn the workers' country--soviet Rus- sia, that inspires the oppressed toilers of the whole world to fol- low the path to socialism and free- Jom tisk the Russian masses have ewn out since t nova, heir victory of On international red day demon- strate your solidarity with the workers and peasants of the soviet union! "Although united in their hatred of the Soviet union, British and American imperialism in their struggle for world markets and world power threaten to plunge the world into a greater blood bath than 1914-18 to settle the question of world domination. In this strug- gle between the British and Amer- ican imperialists, Canada is' inex- tricably enmeshed--Canada will be a battle ground in the coming war between United States and British imperialism. Side by side with tne constantly developing war situation --reflected on the one hand by the growing armies, greater approprias tions for air forces and chemical preparations for war--the im- perialists strive to lull thé workers to sleep regarding the menace of war with the' constant hypoeritical peace' and 'disarmament confer- ences,' energetically aided and ab- etted by the soeialist reformists and 'official' trade union misleaders of the world (the McDonalds, Bon- cours, Groens, Wolls), and the Simpsons, Woodworths, Macphails ete., in Canada.

Eight steel-capped bullets were in the automatic revolver carried by Checkley. In one of his pockets police found 11 loose cartridges and a second clip containing a round of shots. Checkley, who is known to the police as "a bad man," escaped from Burwash on June 2 by swim- ming a river He made his way to Port Hope, he told police, and there purchased the revolver and ammunition, Coming to Toronto, he had been working here a few weeks with a construction gang. The police learned of his where- abouts but when they went to ar. rest. him he had left jus. = few minutes before. Ensued then the trailing which ended at the T.T.C. cashier's cage. On the way to detective head- quarters Checkley is said to have told the officers that they had sav- ed a good deal of trouble by ar- resting him. . No charge of attempted robbery will be laid against him, however, police say. He is charged with escaping custody and carrying a concealed weapon. It was Detective Archabold, one of his captors yesterday in com- pany with Detective Hicks, who arrested Checkley last January on the charge which resulted in his sentence to Burwash. Accused of stealing motor cars, he fought the police when they closed in on him in a Euclid avenue garage. He carried a loaded revolver then, but the cfficers overpoweed him. In February he was convicted and sentenced to two year less a day, plus two years.
