It attracted many interesting cus- tomners during the Dollar Day rush and came in handily for the succession of fog-bound nights over the week-end. A Statesman reporter was dispatched to see and hear how the new system op- erates. The story broke with startling suddenness for a cruising cab driver saw the newehawk heading' for the cab office. Entering the office a tali steel cabinet with lights and gadgets and a loud speaker panel, gave forth In clear tones: "Tell the reporter to wait, ll be right back." We set down a parcel, got out a notebook to TRINITY UNITED CHURCH MORNING WORSHIP il R.M.

Parcels Recovered Driving out ta the country, a panel in the instrument -board of the car asked: "Did the reporter leave a parcel on the desk?" It was the young lady on the cab office switchboard, a mile away, talking to the cab driver. He flashed back: "Yos, its his parcel, send it along by the next cab caming this way." It was sent a- long later wîthout charge. This incident just about explains how the system operates. Take another case. A lady on the way home to Orono told the cab driver: "I believe I left my purse in the picture show." He flashed back ta the cab office, the girl phoned the theatro, the ST.

Multiply these cases by hundreds and one can sec the saving and convenience to the public who have occasion to use the King Taxi Service, day or night. Good Investment It's an expensive business ta instali two-way car radio-phone service. An office aerial leading high above the roof from the steel cabinet, flashes the human voice to each cab equipped with a short aerial atop the car. The speaking is done through in- struments just like a telephone and the panels broadcast the message. But the cost runs to about $1,000 per car for the five King cabs. Lathangue enterprise and in- vestment was figured as follows: First, its a modern convenience just as applicable to towns as to cities and the public is entitled to the best possible service. Second in the long run its a money saver. For instance, a car making a cal or delivering a passenger within a 15-mile radius can keep contact with the central office and pick up customers without using gas- oline and time going back to the office. The King Cab phono, 561, is carrying many messages of congratulation on this newest in- novation to come ta the town. Town Council (Contktued from Page One) the South Ward, but here again Reeve Baker said: "Theres no money left, 'but you guys approve it I'm willing to go ahead." when no seconder was faund for the motion, Reeve Baker and Counc- illor Patterson moved that the new walks ho charged ta the gen- oral fund if the Board of Educ- ation would assume its equitahie share. The Mayor called for a standing vote. It was supported anly by the twa praposers. The wbole question was thon bf t ta next year's council. Bridge Finale General business: Reeve Baker andMayor Little reported briefly on bessons absorbed at the Sew- age and Sanitation Convention in Ottawa, with details expteted ta follow in the published reports of the session. The Mayor reported contract- ors waiting ta start the Jackman bridge, lot without tenders on previaus direction of a council majarity. Messrs.

County Rates Breakdown on expenditures of Bowmanvillo's contribution ta Counties equalized rates was re- coived from Counties Clerk, $9, 000 of which for roads was not spent in Bowmanville. Councillor James moved that Reeve find out if this charge could 'be ahragatod. King's\Taxi Ins tais Two.-Way Radios for Faster Service came apparent when Germans again rearmed for aggression and a new war developed. As a priso- ner in World War 2, Major Foote described conditions where men of many nationalities were tossed together and became unified in a common purpose of help and sub- sistence. Unity Necessary The speaker xvent on to trace the lives of sorvicemen as one of ordcred discipline in the' mass with the state providing subsis- tence and the individual risking lifo for King' and country and freedom for home firesides. Once again a post-war period is found even more complex than that which faced statesman at Versailles. And once again we find it hard to came ta a univer- .ail gaod will and understanding. People again are found pursuing individual interests and the spirit of unity found in the army must be recapturod. Major Foote referred ta tho spirit in the Canadian Legion and Service Clubs whose first prin- ciples were unîty for the gaod of the whole and the cammunity. He went on ta trace the hard work, firm purpase and loyalty of aur pianeers and suggested that these virtues, if recaptured, would in- spire thinkin'ý alang lines that held better values than the present trend toward state aid which un- dormined initiative, the will ta work and the unity of purpose necessary in these tim2s.

The previous Saturday BHS beat Cobourg 16-O mainly through end runs by the fleet backfield player Roland Coombes. Cobourg eviuently set out to get him anddid so by 'breaking his nose in a vicious tackle. When the team got going it was rallied by DeGeer's kîcking, Art Reynold's running, and Cattran's plunging and gen- eralship. Bowmanville High School now stands out as the senior athletic champions of the whole aistrict. This season they won permanent possession of the Track and Field Trophy for winning it thrce suc- cessive years. Now they have added the permanent R-ugby Tro- phy.

Rugbyis-Ls In their final appearance of the 1948 seasan Wlîitby High Seniors received a 16-1 drubhing at the hands of a powerful Bowmanville Highl School squad in Ajax WJed. November 3. A grand crowd- of supporters ventured ta the wind- swept field ta. witness the con- test but the injury-laden Whitby crew were fia match for their rivaIs. In the opening balf noither team had a definite edgo2 in play but the Purpie and Gold squad scored tha2 first point of thc game wben Johnson hcoted a single. The lead, however, was short lived as DeGeer of Bow- mnanvillo tied the score several plays later with a loftv kick. Bawmanville Shin2s It was in the second baîf that Bowmanville hegan ta show their power as Moorcraft and Reynolds made some long gains on tricky reverses and wide bucks #Rey- nolds finally crashed over for the first major aided by Tamblyn's neat blocking at the middle pos- ition. The convert failed. Whitby staged a rally 'but were stopped short on the Bowmanville 3o. From here the big red team took possession and started a down- field march which was climaxed when Munday sneaked through the Whitby line for another five points after Bowmanville recov- ered a blocked kick, but again the Whitby line charged through to block the convert. Regulars Out From this point on it was ju$.t a matter of time. The Purpie ani* Gold squad tried valiantly with sa many regulars out of th#' line-up they lacked their scoring punch. Bowmanville also had their share of invalids and It was a constant stream of injured and limping warriars fram the grid. iron. Bowmanville got their last major late in the game with Moor. craf t getting the deserving coun- ter. Bowmanville were unable to convert, making the score read 16-1. For Whîtby, Love, Levine and Moss were the most effective tacklers while Sandy McLeod and Vorvis sparked the backfield plays. Bowmanville xvas strong in ail departments but Reynolds, Moorcraft and Cattran shone of- fensively wliile, Tamblyn, Galla- gher and Phillips, huge line stal- warts, turned in good perform- ances defensively.
