Five In Fourth The big inning for the winners was the fourth when they chased five runs across the plate. Singles by E. S8amanski and W. Brown started things off for the Old Boys, and Hodgson's one-bag- ger cashed the first run, Heard walked to fill the bases but Steffler went down swinging and Moore grounded into a fielder's choice play with Brown being forced at the plate by: Sundin's throw in However, A, Samanski pounded one of his brother's slow balls for two bases and a pair of runs and he scored the fifth run of the inning on an infield error. Ly Wolves rallied for a single tally in the top of the fifth, on sin- gles by Wilde, Adair and Hare. The Old Boys equalized this tally in the fifth on E. Samanskl's two-bagger and Hodgson's single. The Wolves put on a real rally in the top of the sixth but they fell two runs short. With one out, Ross ded out a long fly to the outfield that got away from Stef- fler and went for three bases, and he scored ag Samanskki was safe on a dropped ball at first, Wilde popped out, but Neal hit a one- bagger, and Adair followed with a two-base blow that cashed a pair of runs, However, Hare grounded out Wolves vs. Legion Friday E. Samanski and Hodgson paced the winners by each collecting a single and a double in three tries, while Adair duplicated this for the Wolves and Hare drew two singles. The Wolves get another chance to pull even with the Old Boys on Legion, A win for the Wolves would eliminate the Legion, and would tie the Wolves and Old Boys with two wins each, and make next Friday night's game between the Wolves and Old Boys as the big game of series, since the Wolves could gain a tie by winning.

DUAL PERSONALITY SUBJECT OF TALK Rotarians Told of David Grayson Who Was Ray Stannard Baker eee A dual literary personality, a man who wrote both scholarly his- torical and economic tomes and at the same time marvellous tales of his small farm and of the life he found there, was the subject of Jos. Bannigan of Pickering who was the guest speaker at Tuesday's meeting of the Whitby Rotary Club, He was talking about Ray Stannard Baker, who under the name of David Grayson wrote such well known books as "Adventures in Content- ment" and many others, Mr. Bannigan was introduced by William Pringle, and began by say- ing that he was going to talk about two literary figures who had died recently but who were in reality the same man. He explained that Baker had started his career as a reporter and had made his name in the famous Pullman strike before the turn of the century as a labor writer, He had advised Theodgre Roosevelt for some time and then formed with a gronp of associates a new maga- e, It was in this magazine, said the speaker, that the first articles sign- ed by David Grayson appeared, and they were immediately popular. The reason for this popularity was that his articles struck a note of serenity, and of love of land and nature which echoed in the hearts of his readers. Baker spent 15 years studying do- cuments and writing the life of Woodrow Wilson, the definitive biography of the famous American president, and when relaxing he loved to wander over his small farm and observe the sights, the small animals and the crops. Mr, Bannigan then read excerpts from his work, and what he read kept his audience distinctly ine terested, He concluded by saying that Grayson was one of the truly great philosophic, serene, literary personalities, and particularly re warding when read in these troub- led days. He was thanked for his address by Walter Thomson and by the ap- plause of his listeners. NEW TYPED ON NEW HIGHWAY Work Going According To Schedule In Oshawa- Whitby Section Work on the two lane highway between Whitby and Oshawa is pro- ceeding according to schedule, was the report received from the Bren- nan Construction Company today. One side of the south lane is com- pleted and the second section will be finished within a week. The north lane is being readied for the concrete work, which will commence very shortly, although the company do not expect that this section will be finished before freezing weather stops the work. It is hoped, however, that Oshawa people, travelling to Whitby will have the use of the south lane dur- ing the winter months. Employ 220 Men Work will stop with the arrival of the first heavy frost, and the cessa- tion of operations will release ap- proximately 220 Whitby and Osh- awa men unti] the resumption of work in the spring, The company hope that this will not take place until well into October, but they are entirely controlled by the vdgaries of the weather. Work is well under way on the cloverleaf bridge at the Thickson sideroad. This bridge differs from those already placed, and is an im- provement over the older type, de- veloped during the war year. It is a single span bridge, of 115 feet, pleasingly simple in design and has the advantage of having no centre supports to obstruct the vision of drivers. It is the first of its kind to be erected in Canada and will be one of six on the stretch of road between West Hil] and Oshawa, THE TIMES-GAZETTE Thursday, September 5, 1948 © ARMOURIES IS OUT FOR REE, CENTRE Town Council Decide Not To Bid $6,000 For Armouries After some discussion Town Coun- cil decided last night not to buy the Whitby Armouries as a recrea- tion centre, although this move was opposed by Councijjors Fred Twist and Ken Lee. The town had previously put in a bid of $5,280 for the building when informed by War Assets Corpora- tion that it was up for sale. At Tuesday's meeting a letter from War Assets stated that they had re- ceived a bid of $6,000 for the for- mer home of a part of the Ontario Regiment. As the town had a high- er priority than the other bidders, they were given the opportunity to meet the bid of $6,000 in order to obtain the building, Said Deputy Reeve Muir, "Does the town really want it?" Mayor Deverell, "What will they do with it when they get it?" Mr, Twist said, "I would like time to investigate the building further. On behalf of the Recreation Associ- ation I can say that we would like to get the bullding, By the general layout it looks as if it would be quite suitable." The letter stated that an answer was required by September 4. Reeve Shield's opinion was "I% would make a good apartment site but I don't think the town should have any part of it. We were into real estate once and got out of it and it would be a good thing to stay out of it." . Another reason advanced for not bidding the higher price was that the sum 'of money had not heen levied for in the year's budget and action on the Armouries was in duced by Councillor Sam Peake, and was suported by all members of the Council save Mr. Twist and Mr, Lee, SEALTITE INSULATION With ROCKWOOL We use only the Best of Materials and Guarantee our Work, Before investing get a price direct from owner.
