THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1929 STRUCK FUTURE FATE LAY a } A-- J y London, T to 'Is not a/good age, assaulting future gov » said | 1d Powell, 'the West Lon- n magistrate, when imposing a fine of 40s, on Thomas Martin, aged 19, an assistant storekeeper, of Holcombe street, Hammersmith, r assaulting William George ; ves, a scaffolder, of Strode road, Fulham, ; + Martin, it appeared, was court- ing Reeves's daughter, and the trouble arose outside the house at eleven o'clock at night because 'the daughter would not go indoors to bed when requested, first by her mother and then by her father. It. was alleged that Martin took his coat and hat off, challenged Reeves. fo tight, and knocked him down on the kerb so that his fore- head was badly cut. Replying to Mr. Laurence Vine, who appeared for Martin, Reeves admitted that he and Martin had hitherto been on good terms, Mr. Vine: There is nothing un- usual in a courting couple taking 3 long time to say Sod night ?-- 0. I dare say you ald in your court- ing days?--Yes. But the arrnge- ment was that the girl should be indoors at eleven o'clock, and this was after that time, Reeves denied that he used an obscene expression to his daughter and that when Martin remonstrat-, ed he tured on him, used a foul Sipressiond to. him, and attacked m Martin, in the witness box, said that Reevés'used bad language in front of his daughter and prepar- ed to strike him, He (Martin) put up his hands to defend himself. Reeves half turned round, slipped, and fell on the kerb. Girl and Her "Rights" The daughter, Elizabeth Reeves, aged 21, corrohorated Martin's ac- count of the affair, Mr, Powell (to the witness): You know 'you 'are the cause of all this, Why didn't you go in- doors when you were cajled by your father?--It wasn't eleven o'clock, No, of course, you were not go- ing to budge an inch, You were going to stand up for your rights, as you call them, and look what happened. I suppose you expect to marry this young man?--Yes. Mr. Powell: Does it not strike you as a rather foolish thing to be the cause of quarrels between your father and your future hus- band? Didn't it strike you that your proper duty was to act us peacemaker I am afraid you are a very foolish girl.

CO Cricket Far More «New York, Sept, 21.--Cricket' 1s a rougher game than baseball, Charles Rose, noted sports writer of the London Daily Express, de- cided after viewing the Yankees famous 'murderers' row" in ac- tion, It was Mr. Rose's first glimpse of the great American pastime, He made the pilgrimage to the Yans kee Stadium in hopes of seeing Babe Ruth, whose name is not un- known even in England, give it a BO. "lI want to see Mr: Ruth give it a go," said Mr. Rose en route to the scene of the Yankee-Indian double-header, both ends of which eventually landed in the laps of the Yankee. "It has been a pet idea of mine for years to see Mr. Ruth give it a go." Unfortunately, it. was written in the book that Mr, Rose, whose name is magic in London, espec- fally as an authority on British boxers perpendicular and British boxers horizontal, should never see Mr, Ruth glve it a go. Mr. Ruth gave it a go in the first inning of the first game, before Mr. Rose arrived, In ti"» eighth inning of the second game Mr. Ruth give it another go, But be- tween these manifestations of na- ture, Mr, Rose had seén enough baseball for one dose and depart- ed, Politely Enthusiastic, He had, however, sc" Signor Tony Lazzeri give it a go, and he was polite enough to be enthus- fastic, "inor Lazzerle's go lit in the upper left field tier of stands, wideh were unoccupied, and there bonnsaed dolefully around while st » Ton=api trotted proudly in a Leaad oirele.

He flied to Falk, 'who rather 'had to walk ~~ Jf for it "It might have heen a miss," remarked Mr.' Rose, loyally, In the first inning of the second game Mr. Ruth took =a mighty swing at the first ball pitched to him and popped weakly to Hodapp, who was playing second. But the Cleveland catcher, could have caught it if he hadn't been polite. Confidence Shaken Mr, Rose's confidence was shak- en, but he carried on. "Perhaps Mr. Ruth will give it a go next time," he said. Meanwhile, divers things were coming under the observation of Than Baseball, Dangerous Experts Say the distingnished admirer of Mr. Ruth, Lary.chose the hiatus fol- lowing up pop fly to steal second, He brought up safely, on his stom- ach and amidst a cloud of small i particles of mud, FEW GASH SALES OF CARS IN AMERICA Instalment Selling in Canada Under Fifty Per Cent. of Total RRA New York~The bulk of motor ve- hicles sales in Latin American coun- tries are made on time, Of the Am- erican automobiles sold in these mar- kets last. year, according to the bul- letin, 88 per cent. in the Caribbean countries and 84 per cent, in South America were on the instalment plan, The corresponding ratio for the Un- ited States was 58 per cent and for Europe 61 per cent, with the Canad- fan ratio under 50 per cent, While in many countries of Latin America, and particularly in Central America, the legal situation of n stalment sclling is not settled, the whole it appears that the ti is developing i sound lined Re- possessions in the Caribbean coun. trics during 1928 amounted to less than 3 per cent, of total sales, while i ing ae beef hollow o fs fi form. gravies can be pfo- i Soups and ; {4 ti vided in a few minutes with "0X0" and all dishes en-- riched in goodness and flavour, No housewife should be without "0X0," J / / I! all UVa ers 0) So NeV]:]%" OXO CORDIAL IN Bl VAN EO GOL AVA EE Sah oO 3 BAN. ANTOINE ST IN Ti ( TT LES Ke in South America the figure was 2.30 per cent. These figures for reposses- sions, it is pointed out, arc higher than those of Europe, which in 1927 was estimated to be 'around one per cent. However, as the forms of con- tracts used become more uniform and legal policies more settled, the pres- ent ratio of repossessions in Latin America may be gxpected to decrease Referring to 7 instalment sales in different cotintrics, an automotive di- vision bulletin 'shows that in Salvador almost all. motor cars arc sold on time; in Mexico and Costa Rica the figure is argund 90 per cent and this same pereentage obtains in Panama and thésganal zone; in Cuba, 80 per cent, of the passenger cars and 90 per cent, of the trucks and buses are sold 'on/time, In South America percentages are about €qual to those of the Caribbean countries. In Paraguay the figure is 100 per cent; in Columbia, 89 per Em ---- mm------ 5 = cent., while in Bolivia, Ecuador, Ve- nezuela, Uruguay and Brazil 90 per cent, of the motor vehicles are sold on instalments, Argentine, the larg- est Latin American consumer of au- tomobiles, sells the lowest percentage on time--60 per cent of passenger cars and 80 per cent of the trucks, Two forms of instalment selling are in use in Latin America, the bul- letin reveals, These arc the condi- tional selec form of agreement, and the hire-purchisss plan, While in cf- fect both of these agrecments arc practically the same, there is ose im- portant distinction between them Under the former plan, the purchase er is bound hy contract to complete the instalment payments, whereas in the hire-purchasc agreement he may usually free himself from its terms by refusing to continue to pay the instalments, in which case the owner is entitled generally to immediate possession, In addition to the in- stalment sales, a substantial propor« tion of the motor vehicle transaction in Latin America is upon a straight credit basis, in which reliance is placed primarily upon the financial integrity of the buyer, The conditional-sale form of agree ment is used exclusively in Cuba, Honduras, Porto Rico, Brazil, Boli- via, while in Guatemala, Colunibia, Venezuela and Chile the hire pur- chase plan is the one most often em= ployed, Sales in Uruguay, arc purely credit transactions, while in Eguador promissor y notes are employed, - gentina's most effective instrume iy is the chattel mortgage, and the onc or- dinarily used, No definite standard- ized form of instalment sclling, it is pointed' out, has as yet crystallized, The customary down-payment in Latin America is one-third the cost of the car, but in the case of used cars a higher initial payment is us- ual credit period in Caribbean coun- ually required, Onc year is the use tries, while South American countries as a rule permit more time, Some Latin American countrics have finance companies to handle in- stalinent paper, hut even whege they exist they are usually organizations handling paper covering . cars in which they are particularly interested Where banks do not readily discount the dealer has to carry his own pa- per, Winston Churchill landed a sword-fish weighing 188 pounds, Probably he started a political ad- dress and the fish came up to heckle.~--Stratford Beacon-Herald. If Russia and China really fight our money goes on Japan,--Flor- ence (Ala.) Herald, "Quite a sound manoeuvre," ap- plauded Mr, Rose, 'successful, wasn't he?" Sherid, the Yankee's new pit- | cher, suddenly served up. a slow one to J, Sewell, who missed breaking his own "back by a hal, "Ha-a soft one!" cried Mr, Rose. "A very soft one, It corresponds to our lob bounders fin cricket. They can be most deceptive." Mr. Rose, a most polite and affable man, made conversation while waiting for hig periodic disappoint. ments at the hands of the bambino, "The referee and catcher must | be dashed hot behind those masks and pads," he remarked, 'Don't they mind 1t?" Owens, the plate umpire, chose the moment to remove his mask and mop his face, "What a real one!" chuckled the visiting Englishman, "He looks like the setting sun going down in a life preserver," And of Mr. Ruth he was shock- ed info first comments, "Isn't he a fat one, though!" said Mr, Rose, * Well, well! does he have to run around a great deal when he is not giving it a go?" More Dangerous It was the whiteness of the balls that caused the visitor to decide that cricket was probably the more dangerous game, In cricket for nome reason not clear to Mr. Rose himself, they always use brown balls, . "One can't. sée. them easily," he sald, "It might be a wood idea to mse white balls ia cricket, but. I don't suppose they ever wil." Another disadvantage of crick- ot, politely 'pointed out by the guest, was that when a left hand: ed batter comes to bat the entire | of fields must change posi- tions, This causes &n appreciable delay, and southpaws are not narticularly pepalarion the cricket tields of Merrie England, Mr. Rose was enthusiastic about the net American fielding custom of mere- | lv splitting in. the palm of the clove when a .portsidehitter hove to at the plate, "It saves time," he said, ' The: third inning of the second pame arrived and Sherid struck out, Cambs walked, Lary swagged tc the plate and Mr. Ruth was on deck, : "Perhaps this time he will give it'a go," said Mr, Rose hopefully. Put just then Lary hit into a double plan and all the Cleveland performers threw down their gloves and dog trotted toward their dugout. It was getting cold. "Isn't he going to give it a go this time?" queried 'Mr. Rose, "Then let's pop." Regretfully but firmly, Mr, Rose and his escort popped. New York--The natural speed- way at Daytona Beach, Fla. ac- cording te current reports, will be thé scene next spring of further assaults on the world's speed re- cord. New speed creations designed by American and European automo- tive engineers are being groomed in a further effort to eclipse the world mark of 231.362 miles an hour. That was the mark set upon LIMITED the sands by Sir Henry Seagrave, in his Goldén Arrow. It stands as the fastest speed at which man has travelled in an automobile. Three weeks Iii March has been sot as the time for trials which will be supervised by the Amer- ican 'Automobile Association's con- test board. Undeterred by the tragedy last spring when Lee Bible was killed while attempting to make a re- cord in the 36-cylinder Triplex of J. M. White, of Philadelphia, the latter has said he will try again to build a car which will establish a new record, Other Americans reported to be contemplating an effort to capture the laurels from Sir Henry are J.
