"Whether the Oshawa Ladies' Softball League will be affiliated with Ontario Women's Softball As- f. joeiation or whether they will join f= lorces with Miss "Bobby" Rosen- ¢ feld's Indedendent Women's soft- I "ball Association. Ladies' softball re- pgelved a severe shakeup after the| "Sunnyside Investigation" and it is guite possible that the Independent Association will become stronger than the Ontario Association. Sever- al of Ontario's leading ladies' soft- ball centres have signified their in- tentions of joining up with the In- dependents but Oshawa's stand is not yet determined.

The invasion of fuel oil began at that time to be noticed as a dangerous competitive factor, and during those latter years coal has receded to a minor position in the home fuel market. Extension coal is recognized as the highest grade of bituminous coal on the Pacific market. Twen- ty years ago, until Utah and Wyo- ming coal became procurable, the local product commanded an eager' market from San I'rancisco to Jun- eau, Alaska. Mined from a seam that present- ed enormous cconomic difficulties, and which was popularly asserted to be rather a geological freak, production costs were always rela- tively heavy and this consideration militated against the possibility of low domestic selling prices, SEVEN THOUSAND BLIND IN CANADA Tag Day to Help Them Will Be Held in Cobourg on \ | Saturday, May 23 Complete preparations ave being made by the Woman's Institute for May 23, in ald of the Canadian Na- | the sun : tional Institute for the Blind. giant sun toby cool and: Seven thousand blind persons are pever Cn resident in Canada, and their work by ln A for freshness has grove Lom 2 siaxt in March, ® L gt Paramount News TTR eS 8.--The She: "Meet me at the corner to- night at 7 o'clock."
