PAGE EIGHT -- SOCCER SEASON OPENS TODAY -- TENNIS PLAY THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1920 ERS EXPECT BIG YEAR Tennis Courts 'Are in Fair Condition; Will Commerice Playing Early Next Month The tennis players in Oshawa are looking forward to a very active season on the mew courts which were satisfactorily completed in mid-summer of last year. Inspee- tion of the courts show that they have stood the winter exceptionally well and that there is every reason to believe that playing should com- mence very early in May. Those interested will remember that last seasqn the Oghawa Tennis Club was compelled, through the development of the Genera Motors plant, to move its quarters from the William Street courts; ground for which had been loaned to the Club for some years by the Motors Cor- poration, and the Club purchased a beautifully secluded spot on the banks of the Oshawa Creek, at the corner of Willlam Street and Maec- Millan Drive, where during the sea- soi four hard-surface clay courts were put into commission. The club house is equipped with run- ning water and with a shower and provides ample facilities for the comfort and convenience of the players. The opening gun of the season will be the annual meeting of the Club at the office of the president, Mr. Annis, 74 Simcoe Street, South, on Tuesday night at 7:30, when the officers for the ensuing year will be elected and plans consume {mated for the various iunter-club {tournaments and activities for the year. 3 WESTON ENTERS SENIOR AND JUNIOR TEAMS IN O. A. L. A, Toronto, April 21.--All doubts as] to whether Westonr would be repre- sented in senior lacrosse this Summer were banished with the annual meet- ing of the Suburbanites last night when it was decided to enter senior and junior teams in O.AL.A, The pre-season trouble which threatened to ruin lacrosse ig the Humber River town has apparently been settled for there were no signs of discussion last night, Although the Weston twelve will not be as strong as tho combination that captured the. Ontario crown last year and earned a place in the Dom- inion finals, they will be. powerful, Places of the senior players have parted for other ports, will be taken by newcomers, who have tak-| en up residence by the Humber, while | several of last year's juniors are ready for service in the major series, | The following officers were elected: President, H.

Among the dwell- | FAVORS WOMEN CLERGY IN CHURCH Bishop Welldon Joins Den Inge in Declaring Women Competent London, April 21.--The disputa- tion between high Anglican digni- tariea regarding the admission of women to holy orders continues, Let it be sald at onee that the cis- putation is conducted with charity and dignity befitting the disput. ants and the subject. Dean Inge, of St. Paul's Cathedral, has declar- od women competent to do all the work that the lower order of the clergy already do. Dr. Henson, Bishop of Durham, finde no reason for justifying so great a breach with the traditions of Christendom, Bishop Welldon, Dean of Dur- ham, the latest notable divine to voice hls sentiments on the sub- ject, says if ordination took place it must be guarded by strict safe- guards, He could hardly believe that women like Florence Nightin- gale, and others who had done noble work in the religious life of the nation, would not have made admirable deacons and priests, and he believed that the time would come when ordination of carefully selected and disciplined women would be an accomplished fact, It seemed to him to he idle to gay that the function of women was to be good wives and mothers if there were millions of women who could not be wives or moth- ers at all. Not only was the num- her of women largely in excess of men, but marriage had become so expensive that many men shrank from it. He found it difficult to believe that if the State treated women on an equal basis with men the Church would always he able to keep them on a basis of infer- jority, Tt seemed {illogical that women should he admitted, as no doubt they would be, to the Cabi- net, and yet be excluded from the diaconate, Tt seemed safer that women should make their confes- gion to women than to men, COMMANDER ROYAL OAK LEAVING NAVY; IS NOT PACIFIED London, April 19.--Commander H, M.

The "new quarter," built in re- cent years around the rallway sta- tion and containing the principal tobacco factories, is a mass of de- bris. Not only were the buildings and their machinery tumbled into | heaps, hut large and valuable stocks | of tobacco were lost. The big sugar refinery east of the city was seriously damaged. On the other side, in the western out- skirts, a great depot of sanitary materials helonging to the army took fire and was completely con- sumed. Churches Shattered Even in the centre of the city, where some houses were left stand- ing, théy were so badly shaken and cracked that many must be torn down and rebuilt, Several churches and mosques, the library and the museum are in like condition. The comparative scarcity of casualties was due to the fact that on the first shock, which was not violent, the 100,000 residents of the city fled to the streets. Three minutes later came 8 second and tremendous quake which brought down bufldings as if they were made of eards, The despairing and panie-strick- en population is mow camped fin tents around the city.
