It is freely predicted today that Lake Ontario will be as cold as a November rain on Wednesday. Two days of rain will be followed, it is expected, by lower temperatures. The water that Fawcett dives into Wednesday morn- ing may be as low as 54 degrees. By the end of the first hour, it is redicted, only 50 swimmers will be ft to continue the day-long mill, From then on every minute will add to Fawcett's chances if he is able to stick, Manager Gilpin says that! Fawcett will stick and that he will be out in front by noon. 1 There are some rumors of strategy with regard to Fawcett's work. Many that have seen him at his work outs supposed that he is a moderate or slow-speed swimmer. The facts are that he has trained all his life with a view to speed as well as endurance. "Is Fawcett going to discount the avairdupois of the headliners by pull-| ing in front of the crowd and attempt- ing to stay there?" Manager Gilpin was asked early today. The reply was an enigmatical smile. "Wait and see!" was the spoken comment. If Fawcett is in the water at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, Oshawa will be, it is stated, one of not more than 10 places on this continent represented in |; the marathon finish, If Fawcett wins, secures place, or finishes, he will be brought back to t a ceive an impromptu ovation, Further donations to the Fawcett Fund include: A.

Several thousand veterans of var- fous wars gathered today from various parts of the Province of Ontario -- with representations also from other Provinces--for a review by the Prince of Wales, accompanied by Prince George in connection with "Warriors Day" at the Canadian National Exhi- bition. The Royal visitors also offic- | ially opened the new "Princes Gate" | at the Eastern entrance to the ex- hibition grounds.

To one veteran propped up on cush- ions in a motor ambulance, the Prince talked for several minutes, The original arrangement to have men parade on the track was changed by the Prince when he saw it was deep in the mud. Instead the veter- ans marched down the lawn inside it. Prince George stood with the Prince of Wales at the saluting base and with them L. R. Lafleche, President of the Canadian Legion. To the veterans the Prince of Wales gave best wishes and to old Imperials who had come over since the war, the best of good luck. He thanked them, as he thanked all old comrades like them, who had taken the trouble to show up at every place he had stop- ped off at on the long journey through Canada, Subsequently the Prince and his hrother George inscribed their names in a historic Bible of the Six Nations Indians, whose representatives wel- comed them to Ontario.

"Now tell me, Mr, Ward, were all the members of your party. perfectly sober?" Saw No One Take a Drink, "Yes, 1 never saw any of them There was one mem- ber of the party whose condition I did not like, however, I smelled something on her." "And who was that ?" "Mrs, Levine." 1 er "To what did you attribute what yon smelled?" "I don't know." "Now, Mr, Ward, you are an ex- perienced police officer and should be able to give us better informa- tion than that," urged Mr. Coch- rane, Peculiar Odor, 'Well, there was a peculiar odor probably liquor. She was hysterical and going around wringing her hands and yelling." "Had she been drinking?" "I don't know." "I want you to say." "It is possible that she drink." Mr. Cochrane then turned his at tention to the position of Ward's car at the time of the accident anc there were some interesting tilts between counsel and witness. "How wide is the grass betweel the pavement and the ditch at the place where your car was parked?" "I don't know." "Was your car in a level posi tion?" "I wasn't in the gutter so I pre sume it was level," Mr, Ward did not understand this question in the phrasing in which Mr. Cochrane first put it and after a tiff counse secured the information. It wa: brought out that the car driven b: Mr. Ward was a four door Buiecl sedan and that the rear doors oper to the rear. "How wide is your car?" "I never measured it." "How wide is the door?" "I never measured that." "I suppose that with the rea) door open there would be a pro- had a jection over three feet of the pave- ment?" suggested Mr. Cochrane. "No. I understand that the rea door projects from 8 to 10 inche: over the jyunning board." "How far would your lights be visible?" "On the level over a mile on such a night, I would say." "Do you think the position ol your car and its lights would be such as to confuse an oncoming driver?" : "You are asking me what might happen in some person else's mind I e2nnot say."

However, after a whispered conversation with Mr, Swanson he resumed his question: ing. "What experience as a driver have you had?' he asked, "I have heen driving a car for ten or twelve years," #Have you ever been confused?" "Certainly, but never so confused I took to the wrong side of the oad. I have come suddenly upon glaring headlights and then have slowed down and gone around hem." This concluded Mr. Ward's testimony. Officer Took Measurements Constable Thos. W. Mitchell, the first officer at the scene of the accident was called to the stand. fe told of having been called to "The House That Jack Built" at 'hort 1.45 a.m., and of having ar- rived there at a time when many cars and people were gathered about. Dr, Wilson was there and the body had been removed to the house. ° Constable Ward's car was it the rear of "The House That Jack Built," Constable Mitchell told of having made certain measurements. The track of Ward's car on the grass was still visible because of he dew, he said, and it was found that from the inside (south) track to the edge of the pavement was five feet. It was eighty feet from where Ward's car had stood to the point where Mrs. Brown had been picked up. "What did Ward tell you about the people getting out of the car?" asked Mr. Cochrane. "He said he had pulled in and they had just got out when struck." "Was there any mark to show shene the north wheels of the car vere with gespect to the pave- ment?" ) "There were no wheel marks, but here was broken glass and it was scattered well to the south side of che pavement. The farthest was about 18 iuches from the edge. "What did Levy say as to the cause of the accident?" "He said he saw the lights of the car and the next thing he knew ney were hit. Ward told me he had first thought Mrs. Hrown had ae that athough in most accidents there is usually yelling and scream- ing, there was none in this." Constable Mitchell related having shoned Constable Cookman and dighway Officer Reid for assist- ce... After their arrival they had motored east om the highway "and ound Prusky's car abandoned at Courtice, The right lamp was brok- 2n and the right fender considerab- y dented. Jt bore blod stains and considerable broken glass. "There was a piece of material found just beneath the right lamp. it was blue in eolor." "Is this it?" asked Mr. Cochrane areducing a tatteved bit of mate- rial After examining the sample sub- mitted Constable Mitchell asserted that it was. Provincial Constable Cookman, the mext to testify, identified the piece of kimono above preferred to and stated that it had been in his possession since Highway Officer Reid picked it" from the headlight of the abandoned car. He related having telephoned various centres east of Oshawa and then having mo- tored east with the others to Cour- tice, where the car was found. The car, Constable Cookman stated, was still warm and in running condi- tion. The right front mudguard, he said, had some dust on it and on the dust was the ribbed repro- duction of the kimono pattern. The kimono which Mrs. Brown had been wearing was produced and put in as an exhibit, its material was Rr ---- similar to that taken from the light hon the dust on the fender of Prus- of the car. Provincial Constable J, Fewtrell explained that he had received P. C. Cookman's message and had gone out to the highway to stop and examine passing cars. "The next afternoon we found Peter Seymond asleep in the back of a Ford sedan in a garage at Newtonville. He was cautioned, al- rested and made no statement, He appeared stupid and seemed to be recovering from a drinking bout. We shook him. His breath smelled of sour liguor, his clothes were torn and dirty and he had what appeared to be blood on his right leg." Witness advised the Coroner that analysis was being made to see if the stain on the trousers was bleod, ag suspected. In his testimony Traffic Officer Reid, of Pickering, told of having assisted in the measurements in front of "The House That Jack Built." Ward's left wheel mark was 5 feet from the pavement, he said. "The dew was heavy so the mark was quite plain." Witness identified the piece of material which he had taken from the front of P-usky's car, and cor- roborated Constable Cookman's evi- dence regarding the ribbed marks ky's car, "Did Seymond appear hiking, when arrested?" "Well, we wouldn't have found him unless we had been looking for him." "The next witness was Dave Prusky. He told of having visited at the home of Walter Green and of having visited at the home of of having arrived on the evening of Aug. 24, about 8.456 p.m, from Toronto. "Did you stay there all evening?" "No, I went away and left my car at Green's till 10.45 p.m. and on returning I noticed the car was gone. I waited and thought somes- one who knew me had taken the car, About 11.45 Peter Seymond came and said he had brought thet car, I told him it was all right. Then he said he wanted to drive a friend to the Club, but I told him not to take it. He had his own car but I have gince learned it was not working." Took Car Second Time, "Then you say Seymond took your car the second time against your wishes?" interposed the Crown. "I told him 'not to take it."
