According to a report in this morning's paper, Oshawa is once again to be a participant in the Central Ontario Baseball League, Years ago the "Central" was the acme of baseball around these parts. It is not so many years ago that the Oshawa C.O.B.L. tea: was considered one of the smartest outfits in the League. Being unable to make an entry in the Toronto Intermediate League and not wishing to remain in the Lakeshore Group, which will not be quite as "fast" as in previous years, the Aarabs will have to play in the C.O.B.L. or not play at all. * P * * League Is Not Yet a Certainty 5 That there will be a Central Ontario League this year is not yet certain, Belleville is willing to enter but therc have been several con- flicting reports from Kingston as to whether they will enter or not. Peterboro was the most enthusiastic club in the group at the start of the scason but now they have withdrawn. Morris Cohen's "Aarabs" are reported to be willing and it looks as ii Oshawa will be entered in the C.O.B.L. if that League operates. * * Lacrosse Players Are Practising The Oshawa Lacrosse Club, which expects to have entries in both the Senior and Intermediate series of the O.A.L.A., is hard at work.

The practices start at 7.00 p.m. ® * * * . ) Softball Situation is Clearing Contrary to What was expected by some, the softball situation is clearing up very nicely. The two Leagues have made an amicable agreement and judging from the progress being made, Oshawa softball fans will have an opportunity of seeing some smart teams in action, very shortly. The two intermediate teams of the Oshawa Industrial League, namely "Mike's Place" and the "Times", will play with the South Ontario League and thige should produce one of the largest most cvenly atc Leagues ever to operate in this "The "Mike's Place" Junior and Falcon Senior "B" teams will each be given a "bye" into the Ontario playoffs and will play exhibition to keep in trim. * LJ LJ Orono To Have Strong Team After having been out of organized competition for some time, Man- ager Orme Gamsby is entering his "Oronites" in the Lakeshore Lea- gue, Being able to draw from Bowmanville, Orme will be able to line up a strong aggregation and thcy should make an impressive showing when they face Baillieboro in the League opener on May 25, Whether this is the same Baseball Nine which Orme offered to trade for the Osh- awa Intermediate hockey team, is not known. * * * " Firemen Win Championship Oshawa's Pire-Fighters launched a heavy attack against the "B" Company of the Ontario Regiment in the Armouries last night and ar- ter the barrage was over, the Firemen had won the City Volley-Ball Championship in a decisive style. The Champs, won all three games, the scores being 21-13, 21-10, and 21-17. The No. 1 Army team made a great rally in the Third Battle but were forced to give way before the superior tactics of the "Ladder Climbers." The losers missed the serving of H, Cheesborough.

AMEI ICAN history of diamonds in South Africa has been presented to the South Af- rican Museum by P. Ross Frames, formerly managing director of the Premier Diamond Mine and chairman of De Beers. The collection has con- siderable intrinsic worth but its great value lies in the scientific points which it illustrates in the matter of shape, size, color, geographical occur- rence and so on. A singular item in the collection is the presence of two tiny diamonds in a tube of stones and sand of the type built by the caddis by in fresh water for its larva, "From the scientific point of view the donation is an ex- tremely valuable one," according to Dr. Gill, Curator of the Museum. He adds: "When we have examined and classified the stones in detail it will be possible to put some very interest- ing information before 'the public." The classification of the stones Wi take several nonths, and they will be' carefully catalogued. SMASHING WEEK-END ATTRACTION!

Nearly all the candy eaten in Canada i= manufactured there. The 1929 production in the Dominion was 129,913,668 pounds valued at $32.759,425. Total imports were 5,377,722 pounds of which the Unit- ed States furnished about a fifth. Two northern states, Minnesota and Washington, ate more candy per man than your Canadian. The theory of the Department is that more candy is eaten in colder cli- mates. However, smoking tobacco may have something to do with it inasmuch as those who smoke a great deal are said not to like candy.

About this time last year, it will be rememered, Jones and 'Calamity Jane" were preparing for a trip to England and another shot at the British amateur, the only title which had managed to escape the Atlantan's wizardry. The papérs-- all of them, from Seattle to Key West--were choked with news con- cerning Jones' invasion, news con- cerning Bobby's previous failure to win the event; news of how he was reported to have told of golf's maj. or events for the first "grand slam" in history.

HARDY'S MEMORIAL HAS ROOTS IN SOIL London, May *7.--The engraved column of Cornish granito, 10 reet high, recently erected by the admir- ers of Thomas Hardy in the United States to the great English writer at Higher Bockhampton, Dorchester, the Wessex hamlet where Hardy was born, 1s decorated with laurel wreaths in bronze, and bears the fol- lowing inscription: "Thomas Hardy, O.M., was born in the adjacent cot- tage, 2nd June, 1840, and in it he wrote 'Under the Greenwood Tree' and 'Far from the Madding Crowd.' This monument is erccted to his memory by a few American admir- ers." The column stands on the bank of a narrow lane at the foot of a drive leading through an avenue of tall trees.

CARDINAL POMPIL) 13 DEAD IN ROME Vicar General to Pope Pius Dies at Age of 73 Rome, May - 6.--(C.P.) -- Basilio Cardinal Pompilj, rector of the Ba- silica of St. John Lateran and Vicar General to Pope Pius, died early Tuesday morning. He was 73 years old. As Vicar General he had charge of the Rome diocese. The Basilica of St. John Lateran, of which he was rector is known as the Mother Church of Christendom, where the Popes had their headquarters for centuries before they moved to St. Peter's. Cardinal Pompilj, born April 16, 1858, began his theological studies at a very carly age in the Vatican Pon- Guy Cantrell Pleases Fleet - Street Baseball Parlor's Patrons With Good Hurl- ing Display Toronto, May 7.--Guy Cantrell supplied the Leafs with some fair- ly pleasing pitching at the Fleet Street baseball parlor yesterday afternoon, and the men of O'Neill went out and evened the present series against Jersey City, and in- cidentally ended their four-game losing streak. The final score was 6 to 2, in Toronto's favor. Cantrell walked the first two Skeeters to face him, but he set- tled down after that and went the route, limiting the visitors to four hits, two of which produced the only Jersey City runs in the sixth inning, The Leafs did not do a great deal against Walter Brown, a husky right-hander, who, in the opinion of one veteran fan, look- ed and pitched like Doc. Adkins, the old Baltimore hitter, but what they did do was sufficient to charge him with the defeat. He worked for seven innings, during which the Leafs collected six hits good for three runs. The other por- tion of the Leafs' total score was compiled from the offerings of Charles Perkins, a southpaw, and Kennar Graf, slim righthander. Rogell Hits Home Run Perkins came to the Jersey City hilltop after Walter Brown had been removed in favor of a pinch- hitter. Perkins was sent to the Skeeters by the Philadelphia Athe letics. Against the Leafs he lasted less than an inning. Billy Rogell greeted him with a lengthy home run over the left-field fence, and Strong followed with a ringing single In the same direction. After that Perkins evidently decided the best way to keep the Leafs from tiring out Lis outfielders was to walk the batters and when he had issued three passes and forced in a run, he was derricked in favor of the slim Mr, Graf. Graf wild-pitched the thira and final Leaf run of that inning in but managed to retire the side. Thé Leafs made a total of eight hits and put them to the best use. tificial Seminary and the Appollinare Seminary, and was ordained in 1880. MINISTERS ADMIT FLOGGING LABORER Mena, Ark, May 7.--(C.P.)--Two ministers, charged with flogging Bud Rails, a labourer, allegedly because he failed to follow their warning to stop drinking and support his Red Cross-aided family, have received the support of Sheriff John E. Joplin, of Pope County, who said he would pay their fines, if thev are found guilty. The ministers, Rev. Sid Wise and Rev. P. R. Larimore, according to Joplin, admitted the flogging. "Wise wielded the switch and La- rimore looked on to see it was well done," the Sheriff said. "I don't know whether a jury will find them' guilty under the grand jury indicts ment, but if one does, I will help raise money to pay their fines be- cause it was a Christian act." i d New Martin Kohens and the Kellys in Africa with GEORGE SYDNEY and CHARLIE MURRAY THURSDAY and FRIDAY Hamilton By-Product $9.95 McLaughlin Coal & 110 King St. East CO KE Phone 1246
