PAGE FOUR THE DAILY .TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1947 LATEST NEWS OF THE COUNTY TOWN OF WHITBY Business Office, Miss G. Macpherson; Wm. T. Williams, Editor, Phone 703, All Departments Bishop S.C. Neill Addresses 1.M.C. Delegates AtO.L.C. The Right Rev. Stephen Charles Neill, vit to the Archbishop of Canterbury, speaking on the seventh day of the International Missionary Council conference be- ing held in the Ontario Ladies Col- lege here said yesterday that 'the .issue facing the Christian Church today is the assault from every angle on the integrity of indivi- dual personality." Bishop Neill, who is a lecturer on theology at Cambridge University and chaplain of Trinity College, Cambridge, add- ed that the attacks referred to came from many angles: totalitar- ian system, the application of tech- nical processes to life in such a way that individual skill becomes less and less valuable, government control of education and the level- ling effect of press and radio. Bishop Neill said "we as Chris- tians must stand for the integrity of the individual. The church must stand for a world community based on the greatest possible develop- ment of personal integrity. We are not proposing to offer what people want. The paradox of our situa- tion is, that it involves complete identification with the needs of the people and complete aloofness from their desires. "We, as Christians, cannot accept any shallow or even optimistic in- terpretation of current problems. We must accept as a characteristic of this age that there will always be that element of sin which gives At Long Last B Flying Saucers Seen In Whitby The newest version of the "flying saucers" turned up yesterday at the Ontario Ladies College scene of the International Missionary Council. During the noon lunch on period, Rev. R. E. Diffendorfer, of New York knocked a plate on the floor, and it rolled under the press table nearby. Whereupon, Rev. E, E. Elder, of the Near East, remarked "that's one flying saucer that was readily identified." What's The rise to tyrannies and oppressions." The tall, middle-aged bishop, a striking figure in a purple robe and white collar and with a gold cross anging at his breast, said that a Roman times, through the Middle Ages, the French Revolution Christians had stood out against systems which sought to submerge and minimize the dignity of the individual. "Christianity will overthrow any set of social institutions with which it comes in conflict. The Romans had the intelligence to realize this and to reckon that if it was not all with the Christians, it would be up with the Roman type of civ- Sizaton. and it was!--Christianity is just as dangerous now as it was then, You can see it acting as a corrosive acid on non-Christian civ- ilizations and systems of thought in the modern world." Bishop Neill said he believed the Christian Church could count on being able to work in India for an- other 20 years, Some Western missionaries should be sent to as- sist but care should be taken not to overwhelm and outnumber na- tive Christian missionaries, he said. "There is far more to do than the Church has strength for today. I think of my own country--Ilarge- ly paganized, it is true, yet open from end to end to any dynamic word from God." Later, in an interview with The Canadian Press, he expanded his remark concerning paganism in Great Britain, He sald the condition sprang from what he termed "religious il- literacy," due to a decrease of re- ligious training in the homes, to a falling off of church attendance and to "growth of secularism in press and radio" which led to a levelling-off process in human per- sonality, Movements were afoot in Britain to promote Christianity throughout the country through groups such as the Church Commandos, he said. Two thousand students crowded the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford dur- ing the University Mission last Pebruary. Very Rev.'John Baillie, professor of divinity of the University of Edinburgh, gave a theological ad- dress on "Fhe Given Word -- the Message of the Unvarying Gospel" at a late afternoon chapel session and delegates later held an hour- long discussion on it. RADIO SERVICE GUARANTEED -- IMMEDIATE BUTT RADIO & APPLIANCE 130 Brock St, N., Whitby By NEIL MacCARL It took eight innings, but Whitby Intermediates finally edged out a 4.2 win over Toronto Stanton Fuels in an exhibition game last night. Whitby outhit the visitors nine to six, but they could not capitalize on their opportunities to win by a big- ger margin. Doug Hodgson pitched another fine game for Whitby, allowing only six hits and walking three, while striking out ten. The visitors, were kept well in check, with the exception of Shapiro, who collected half of their six hits. Coach Jimmy McCarroll, of - Stan- tons, brother of Jack McCarroll, former coach of the Whitby team, has a nappy Junior team, even though their record of four wins, five losses and three ties, cannot keep them out of the cellar in the Greenwood Park Junior League. He has a fine catcher in Johnson, who was picked to play in the city East- West All-Star game, and Boynton is a smooth fielding first baseman. In addition, Shapiro showed that he is a better than average hitter, a ER Coach Warpy Phillips of Whitby Intermediates, put him. self on the spot last night, but he came through with flying colours to show just how it should be done. Entering the game in the sixth inning, Phil. lips beat out an infield roller for a hit, but was promptly erased on a double play. Taking the field the next inning at short stop, he let the first ball hit to him go through his legs for an error, and he took a rib. bing from the crowd. However, when he singled in the eighth inning, to drive in two runs and win the game, the crowd were all for him, and had forgotten about his earlier error, before they got outside the park gates. * + Coach Phillips used several new- comers in the lineup last night, for the first time in an effort to give some of them a tryout in a non league game, 'before the signing deadline on July 16th. York and McCloskey each came through with a hit, although York's was a two bagger. Beaton also started, but went hitless, That hit of Ken Mac- donald's was the longest clout seen in the local ball yard this year. Always a long hitter to deep right field, the left hand batting Mac. donald hit the ball to right centre field, and should have got three bases standing up, only he had a sore ankle, and had to be taken out of the game. . . Although York was playing his first game, he will prob: ably be remembered as "Shoeless Joe" after last night's game, for he A TRANEIS SWANN, AGNES TING 7 LRBMARD LAE ORCHESTAAL ABA ar ia Weed Control Discussed At Garden Club Mr, Bunner, of the Whitby High School, was the guest speaker at the regular meeting of the Whitby Garden Club Thursday evening, and he gave a talk on "Weeds, Identication and Eradication." 'The speaker showed samples of the various classes of weeds, annual, biennial and perennial, and then discussed the different types of weed killers, 2-4-D is fairly effec- tive in killing all broad leafed types of weed, and sodium chlorate which kills all plants is excellent to use along fences and ditches. Calcium cyanimide is particularly effective on asparagus beds, as it kills all weeds, fertilizes the land, and does not harm the asparagus. The club also conducted its first contest and prizes were awarded for the best floral centre piece for a dining table, and for the best dis- play of early vegetables. Mrs. F. Ing, president of the Oshawa Hor- ticultural Society, acted as judge, and selected the floral display of Mrs. R. VanHorne for first prize, and Mrs: Price's for second prize, Mr. F, Ing's fine display of vege- tables won first prize in that class, with Mr. VanHorne's taking second place.

Several weeks ago, they tried a squeeze bunt with the bases loaded and one out, and it failed and the game was lost. Last night, they tried a closely similar stunt, and the results were equally disappointing, al. though not disastrous fortun. ately. In the fifth inning, Reed's walks to Yuill and Gates, loaded the bases, and brought Knibb to the plate. Coach Phillips flashed the bunt sign, and at the same time Yuill tried to steal home on the play. The pitch was inside, and Knibb had to duck away to avoid being hit, and Yuill was an easy out. While all this was going on, Reed was standing half way be. tween second and third, prob. ably a little dismayed at what was happening, and he was tagged for - the second out, What started out as a big out. burst, fizzled out badly, when Knibb hit into a force play.

Paced by home runs by Mitchell, Nesbitt and Gibson, the Dodgers pounded Mar- tin, who went the distance, for 22 hits. Vern Gibson was the hitting star of the night, getting three singles and a double in addition to his home run clout. Hooker limited Whitby to eight hits, with pitcher Martin with three hits, and Hoar with two the only Tigers who could find the range. For a while, it seemed as if Brooklin would not be stepped, and their scoring was equal ta inning being played. Two runs in the second, four in the fourth, and six in the sixth.

The deceased head been in failing health for about three years. Very highly respected by all who knew him, he enjoyed a very large circle of friends. Born at Woldnewton, Yorkshire, England, on April 9, 1863, the de- ceased came to Whitby from his birthplace 65 years ago. He went into the coal business in Whitby in 1914. Mr. Sawdon was a member of the Church of England and of the Sons of England Lodge of Whithy. Predeceased by his wife four years ago, he is survived by two sons, John and William of Whitby. Also surviving are a sister in Eng- land and two brothers, George of Alliston and John of Maple Valley. The funeral will be held from the W. C. Town Funeral Home at 2.30 p. m. on Monday, July 14, followed by interment in the Union Ceme- tery. The services will be conduct- ed by Rev. Gordon A, Channen, Rector for All Saints Church. Delegate Believes Indian Church Has New Opportunities The Professor of Philosophy and Vice-Principal of Hislop College in Nagpur, India, David Gnanapraka- sam Moses, told upwards of 120 delegates to the International Mis= sionary Council conference in the Ontario Ladies College here that "political and social changes in modern India have given rise to new opportunities for the Christian church." Mr, Moses spoke to the conference at the half-way mark of the. 14-day meeting. . "India is on the eve of achiev- ing her full political independence and in many of tile provinces she is acting as though she is already free," he said. "Social legistations of a far-reaching kind, cutting right across social traditions that have come down through the ages are being rushed through the legisla- tures." "In Bombe residency, bigamy has been abolished by law and in Madras and other presidencies or- thodox caste Hindu temples have been thrown open to the depressed classes. Changes of an equally far- reaching character in the economic structure of. this vast sub-continent are under serious consideration. "All this revolutionary re-making of Indian society is undertaken on the purely humanitarian = ground that the equality of man has to be maintained and the dignity of hu- man nature preserved. These ideas are the good essence of Christian ethics and in India today they have been taken up to be worked into the new society that is emerging without the Christian view of life which is its abiding source and sus- taning strength, "Now is the time for an unam- biguous and penetrating communi- cation of the Christian way of life which will show itself as the sup- port and the strength of the rad- ical social changes enacted on the Indian scene." The Gospel needed to be com- municated to the millions in the villages of India still upder the domination of superstitions, fear and ignorant credulity, he said, and added: ; "The effort should be made by the Indian Church, by her indi- vidual members as they are scat Yared in the many villages of In- dia." The other speaker of the fore- noon session, Rev. Dr. Walter Frey- tag, of Hamburg, Germany, director of missions for the German Evan- gelical Missionary Council and lec- turer on missions at the universi- ties of Hamburg and Kiel, said churches in their mission fields which were able to withstand "dreadful trials" during the war. He said that in New Guinea with- in 40 years natives progressed from primitive tribal culture to the Christian way of life "virtually without interference of western cjv- I ilization" and tribe after tribe abolished paganism by tribal de- | cision, Rev, Tsu-Chen Chao, dean of the school of religion at Yenching Uni- versity in Peiping, China, and Dr. Henry P. Van Dusen, president of the Union Theological S8eminary in New York, were scheduled to speak at the late afternoon session. New Coach Stars As Intermediates Down Toronto Nine 4-2 Coach Warpy Phillips single in the last of the eighth inning drove in two runs to give Whitby Inter- mediates a 4-2 victory over Toronto Stanton Fuels in an exhibition game in the Town Park last night. Doug Hodgson kept six Toronto hits well scattered, but was weakening to- wards the end when he allowed two hits in the top of the ninth. How. ever, he kept Toronto well in check, issuing bases on balls to three and striking out nine. Whitby collected nine hits from Stanton hurler Fries, but they were unable to bunch them until the rally in the last of the eighth. Fries struck out 10 while walking four. After a scoreless first inning, Stanton's took the lead in the top half of the second inning with a single run. Shapiro, opened the in- ning with a single, went to second on a passed ball, and then scored after two successive infield putouts. Whitby came right back to tie the score in the other half of the same inning. Knibb drew a base on balls leading off, and went to second on a passed ball, scoring on York's double to right field. After Mc- Closkey went down swinging for the second out, Hodgson lined a single over first base, but York was held at third, and Dafoe popped out to end the inning. Whitby scored another single run to take a 2-1 Jead in the third in- ning, as Macdonald slammed a tremendous double over the centre fielder's head after Yuill had been hit by a pitched ball. Macdonald could easily have made third on the hit, but he pulled up at second with a sore ankle, and was taken out of the game. Harden made a bad throw to third base in the sixth inning, to prevent Brown from stealing, and the ball went out into left field letting the runner score, tieing the game at 2-2, Brown got on base by a walk, and went to second on Gates error. Gates led off the home half of the eight with a ground rule double in deep right field, and Knibb got on base when Wattam hooted his roller. Coach Warpy Phillips, who went into the game as a pinch hit- ter in the sixth inning, followed with a single down the first base line, and both runners scored to win the game. Both sides came up with a double play to help their pitchers. In the fifth inning, Boynton was on third base with one out when Fries hit the ball right back at Hodgson on the mound. Hodgson hung onto the ball, then whirled and fired it to Reed to double the runner at third, In the sixth inning, Phillips, pinch hitting for Beaton beat out an in- field roller, but York grounded to Boynton at first, and he threw to second forcing Phillips, and took the return throw ahead of the run- ner. Shapiro, clean up batting centre & > allowing only one earned run, fielder for the visitors was the hit. ting star of the night, with three singles in four tries, although, Phil. lips had a perfect night at the plate, with two for two, and he 'batted in two runs to win the game.

Delegate Airs Views On Indian State Appointment o-- 4 "It certainly was a great surprise to me," stated B. L. Rallia Ram, president of the National Christian Council of India, Burma and Cey- lon, commenting on the announce- ment of the recommendation of Mohammed Ali JJinnah for the post of Governor-General of Pakistan, in an interview yesterday. Rallia Ram, clad in native cose tume, ranks as one of the most colorful personalities at the Inter- national Mission Council now in session at the Ontario Ladies Col- lege. A native of Lahore, India, which will be in the newly created Dominion of Pakistan after August 15th, he is also General Secretary of the Joint Committee of All-In- dia Council of Indian Christians and Catholic Union of India. Continuing, Rallia Ram said that when the nominations were first being made for the position of Viceroy in the Interim Govern- ment, Jinnah was not included, at his own request, because he already held the post of President of the Moslem League, which he consider- ed to be the highest post which he could obtain. "It is possible that the appoint- ment, | was made with the consent of e Congress party," the delegate added, P . 8 "I think it may be indicative of a new policy of the Moslems to co- operate with the Government, and it is a hopeful sign," said the Mis- sionary Council' delegate.

"I per- approves the appointment beca it radically changes the polities situation, If Jinnah accepts the position, he will be responsible to the British Government, and at the same time he will still retain his position as head of the League. Moslem "No one else in the Congress is in the same position as Jinnah," Rallia Ram continued, JSfor what- ever he does, the Moslems approve." Backing up his statement that the appointment of Jinnah would lead to closer co-operation, he pointed out that undoubtedly Nehru approve ed the appointment and Nehru is a close friend of Admiral Viscount Mountbatten, who will be the Gov- ernor-General of India. "I hope it will lead to the formation of a Joint defence council between the two states," he added. "Jinnah is clever and he stands his ground and never changes," the delegate said of the new leader. "He but favors the Moslem rights. There are many elements making up the present situation, but if there is a will for peace at the top, then com= promises can be worked out."
