PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1940 NOT ENOUGH ROOM FOR ALL ANIMALS AT CHICAGO FAIR the simultaneous 22nd International Grain and Hay Show came from 36 states and five Canadian prov- inces. The Judges are from 22 States and Canada, including J. Charles Yule or Carstairs, Alta, who will select the grand champion steer of the exposition.

Stock thus eliminated will be sold off im- mediately. Paradoxically, the total number of animals entered, 11.000, was 2,300 fewer than last year. Manager B. H. Heide explained that the reduc- tion came in the carload entries be- cause cattle market prices have been high since Sepetmber and owners preferred to sell instead of waiting until after they exhibitea at the International. But the car- lots are quartered outdoors, anyway, in stock' yards pens. The exposition is the windup event of ine show season for stock raisers and crop growers, coming after the county and state fair cir- cuits and other national shows. Its awards and honors are considered tops. Attendance was 448,000 last year.

In many streets not a window was left intact in buildings | and residences. The police station, movie theatre block of flats and a bank were among damaged buildings but cas- ualties in the Merseyside were de- scribed as "amazingly slight, in view of length of the raid and method of indiscriminate bombing by relays of planes." : In another northwest town a whole row of houses was crumbled and a warehouse badly d maged. However, only three casualties were reported. Some persons were known to have been killed in another north west town which suffered the longest raid of the night in this area. London, Nov. 20 (CP).--Ger- many's raiders singled out Liver- pool, one of Britain's great cities and her chief western port, for their heaviest hits in last night's trading of air blows. Britain's ports, through which the vital commerce of this island kingdom must flow, apparently have become the focus of Nazi raids By picking out Liverpool, shipping centre for the industrial Midlands, the Germans added another to the lengthening list of British ports re- cently bombed--among them Bris- tol, Plymouth and Southampton. Besides 'the main wave of the attack" on Merseyside, a joint com- munique of the air and home se- curity ministries disclosed that German bombs fell on "a large number of isolated points in the southern part of England." But nowhere outside of the Mer- seyside and northwest, it said, were casualties or damages heavy and even there "the numbers of killea BIG DOUBLE BILL GRACIE FIELDS ""Love, Life and Laughter" -- ALSO -- ERROL FLYNN --- IN ae "VIRGINIA CITY" or injured are not as great as might have been expected." Although damage was done to many buildings and some 'serious' | fires were caused, reports said the raiders were met with such violent "anti-aircraft fire they literally were blasted away from their targets and were unable to smash their main objectives, * One report after another from provincial areas stressed the feroc- ity of the "ack-ack" barrage, not only from the Merseyside area but also from East Anglia, Northeast England, the Midlands and Whales The Press Association said the KING ST.

Another Merseyside town under- went what was called its severest raid so far and a third reported a "fairly heavy" attack. Although Londoners heard the thrum of heavy bombers' engines during their 1,000th hour under air ! raid alarm, the raiders passed the capital by after the early night hours and the all-clear sounded be- fore 4 a.m., following a long period of quiet. Three areas of London were iden- tified officially as scenes of recent heavy air raid damage--sSilvertown, East London district which was flattened by a disastrous munitions explosion in the last war; Hackney, in Northeast London, and Willes- TO-NIGHT NIGHT NIAGARA FALLS den, in the northwest. BRITISH VESSELS SMASH ITALIANS (Continued from Page 1) of three six-inch-gun cruisers of the Condottieri class. Two very near misses were obtained, and i appears that one of the enemy cruisers was damaged." A Fascist destroyer of the Grecale class was seen down by the stern, listing heavily, and another destroy- | er was listing slightly and losing way. Four Out of Six British fleet air arm and naval have hit four or Italy's six battle- ships in recent weeks. Three were damaged in the air raid on Taran- to Nov. 11. After the main part of Wednes- day's battle, Fascist bombers at- tacked in waves late in the after- noon and at one time, the admitalty said, the Ark Royal "disappeared from sight behind the spashes from about 30 bombs falling close to her, "She emerged from the spray" however, "with all guns firing furi- having . sustained neither damage nor casualties." The British Press over the victory. lines: -- The Daily Mall: Naval Victory." The Daily Herald: Smashed Again." The Daily Express: "Six Italian Ships Hit as They Raced Away." (The Rome radio said an "im- portant British naval formation" was attacked several times by Italian planes west of Malta yester- day afternoon and that the bom- bardments were believed to have been 'very effective." There was no immediate comment in London on the report.) (The Italian high 'command, in its story of the Sardinia fight issued carlier yesterday, listed the Fascist casualties as 'serious' damage to a destroyer and a hit by a dud shell on a eruiser. This version sald two British cruisers were dam- aged by shellfire while three other British warships including a battle- hip and an aircraft carrier, were bombed.) The admiralty said the 10000- ton British cruiser Berwick was hit twice, resulting in the deaths of seven men, including an officer. The damage, however, was slight and "the ship is ready for service" A British fighter plane was shot down, the admiralty communique said, while two Italian bombers were destroyed. ously, was jubilant Typical head- "Big British Italians Ovirm: Greek Soldiers (Continued from Page 1) so reserved about the present situation. the fighting is spread over a wide area far in- to the snow-covered mountains | and is being carried on mostly by small units.
