Some caver business transactions of millions of dollars, others are used to settie personal accounts of just a dollar or two. Al over the counftry, people in every walk of life find it con- venient to carry a B of M cheque book. When you pay your bills by cheque, you avoidj the time-wasting round of stores or offices. The stubs give you an exact record of how much you've spent, and your cashed and cancelled cheques, which your bank will return on request, serve as your receipts. It's safer, too. If you have the misfortune to lose bis or coin, you may or may not find your money again. But you can't lose the money in your B of M account, and no cheque is worth a cent until you have signed it. George Moody, manager of the Bank of Montreal branch at Bowmanville, cordially invites you. to open an account at his office. Try out for yourself the merits of a B of M chequing account. .*THE CANAD!AN UTATESUM. EOWMAIrf!LLE, ONTARTO double, while Gilhooley, Yourtb, Hooper, Cox and Legree collected singles. Roses knocked the Pilots' starting pitcher, Benson, off the mound in the third inning. Gord Sturrock, wbo bas also been somewbat of an away-from- home star, was AI Osborne's choice for starting hurler. Gord really turned on the beat in the first two innings, striking out four batters. Two unearned runs came in on three first inning errors. Three more errors in the third inning allowed Pilots to have their big inning. Those six errors, may we remînd you, were tbe resuit of poor ligbting more than faulty piaying. Later in the evening, when the lights were more effec- tive,. the Roses played much bet- ter bail. Even the Pilots made their three errors in the early in- nings. Alter pitching shutout bal in the fourth and fifth, Sturrock was lifted in the sixth inning to give rigbthander Bun Legree a chance to show bis stuff against the classy opposition. Legree was reliable as usual, and limited Pil- ots to one bit in the final one and two-thirds innings.

Umpires Almosi Lynched ini Whilby As Roses Go Down 5-4 in Darkness It wýs getting dark> as the Fni- day night Whitby-Bowmanville game reached the end of the sixth inning with Bowmanville leading 4-2. Plate umpire Barnes decided to try and finish the game. Whit- by scored three runs in the top of the seventh to take a 5-4 lead. It was too dark for basebaîl by then, but the umpire realized that Whitby would raise a storm of pro- test if he stopped the game and let the score revert to 4-2. In- stead he finished the game quickly by caliing nine consecutive strikes on nine pitched balla to Gallagber, Cox and Gilhooiey. An even haif dozen pitches were roughly one foot outside the strike zone. Bow- manville players surged around the umpires and several fans of- fered tô procure a rope suitable for banging purposes. but ail ta no avail. Until he tired in the 7th, Legree bad kept the Whitby bats under control to sucb an extent that tbey bad laimed only four bits in six inninga. A double, triple and single did the seventh inning dam- age. ~- 01o Meanwhile the Roses had tai- lied 4 times, paced by Haoper's triple, double and single.

Altbough Jim Levitt was I top shape, batting in tbree nuns, the nest of the team seemed to be in a one-night alump. Their field- ing wasn't up to par and the 18-10 defeat suffered broke their four- game winning streak. Batting Averages AB R H Av. J. Kitson ---28 12 15 .536 J. Stacey __18 12 8 .444 D.

Juveniles Drop 14 -5 Decision In Port Hope Fielding a makeshift team, Bow- manville Juveniles ran into troub.ýe wben they met Port Hope en Thursday evening. Altbough they outhit the Port Hope boys il to 8, Bowmanville could not bunch their bits sufficiently well to maintain a rally after the firat inning. In that first innina aa home run, triple, double and two singles accounted for four Bow- manville runs. They added an- other run in the seventh on three singles. Port Hope's inning was the fifth, in which they pushed seven tai- lies across the plate. Brunt pitcbed all the way for Bowmanville and might bave bad better luck with the regular line- up behind him. He gained credit for seven strike-outs, and bore down to strike out three in a row to hait Port Hope's big fifth in- ning rally. On the attack West was tops with a borner, triple, and single. Pitcher Brunt belped bis own cause with a double. Line score RHE Bowrnanv'le 4 0 0O0O 0O1OIil 5 Port Hope 301 3 7Oxl4 8 1 Lineups: Bowmanville West c, Brunt p. Chant if, Moorcraft lb.

Softball Gcane With Pickeuing With the bases loaded ln the bottom of the fifth, Miss Michaeis of the Pickering girls' softball team stepped up ta the plate and, drove a home run into the out- f«eld, tieing the Bowmanville Quakerettes four-ail. The game was played at Pickering, Frlday, June 16. Bowmanville scored three ruas i the first and one ini the second inning. The third and fourth in- nings were scoreless, but with Pickering's home run in the fifth, the game was evened up. The bail game was cailed in the fifth on account of ramn. Trying to give the Quakerettes experience, the Coach switched his team around on the field, giv- ing bis players an opportunity to handle several positions. For Bowmanville, Barb God- dard looked good behind the bat and she showed some good'in- field work when switched to sec- ond base. Peculiar Tulip At Maple Grave Mrs. Harold Evans of Maple Grove informed the Statesman Thursday that she had a tulip witb six petals growing in ber garden. Most flowera af this type have five petals.
