Amidst a blood-curdl- ing noise of juvenile voices from the sidelines, which would have a Roman gladiator's knees knock together as he enter- ed the arena for a life and death duel, the villagers went up in the clouted its way By this time it was quite dark but the very courteously allowed the visitors the first of the 8th ine nings to give the ma chance to tle Whitby was playing and the Pickering clouters went down in shotr order. Pickering failed to count during ers netted six runs in easy style. Scott was in the box for the locals and in the 2nd frame she walked Spencer With one down there came a wild pitch and Spencer was home for the visitors' first.. Mutch hit safely and Annan came home on the play. Mutch worked around to 3rd base and scored when Cowan made a two-base hit, Andrews hit advancing Cowan who was later scored by Bailey. Jones struck out for the third down. The Rovers ac- counted for one-run in this stanza when Scott scored on an over- throw. The villagers netted a pair of runs in the third. Spencer reach- ed 1st but Annan struck out. Rem- ner hit and advanced Spencer who was scored by Mutch. Remner counted when a wild throw was made over 2nd. Cowan and Mec- Esen fanned. The locals were playing loosely, missed many easy balls, spoiling what they did pick up by careless pitching. When it came their turn to bat they were held scoreless for the innings chiefly on account of the activities of McEwen, the little shortstop who combined with Spencer at 2nd to keep the base clear. Annan was turning in a good game and was proving hard to hit. Remner at cen- tre field was another strong player for Pickering and made several neat catches in her territory. In the 4th frame Forrester, who had been holding down 3rd posi- tion, exchanged with Scott for her usual place on the mound. This did not put an end to the visitors' scoring for Bailey, sturdy third base player, made a neat circuit hit, the ball soaring far beyond left field.

In the 6th Jones, catching for Pickering, led oft with a triple, which might well have been a home run, Spencer sacrificed her home while Annan next to bat secured a hit. Remner fanned and with two down, Mutch made a bit, An- an reaching the plate on a wild pitch over 2nd base. Cowan hit and scored Mutch, but McEwen went down .for the third out, The locals failed to register. The villagers were allowed but fone run in the 7th innings and it was then that Rovers began to show their class as the leading team in the Oshawa ladies' softball loop. They knocked the ball all over the lot, stole bases and gen- erally confused their opponents to the extent of eight runs leaving the score 18-13, Pickering's try in the 8th failed and the game was called on account of darkness, The line-up: Pickering: battery, Annan and Jones; infield, Andrews, Spencer, Bailey and McEwen; outfield, Mutch, Jones and Cowan.

The Prince attended as a mere spectator but mentioned that as head of the Duchy of Cornwall he possessed roperty within the area of the Lon- os County Council. "I cannot help remembering with pride a letter wherein the writer said that our es- tate in Kennington possessed one of the best housing schemes of its kind. 1 was grateful for this pat on the back," the Prince said. It was an histogic day for the Lon- don County Council. The Council committed itseli to the latest and reatest scheme for dealing with {aterloo and Charing Cross bridges. Waterloo Bridge, one of the finest bridges from the architectural view- point in all Europe, is to be retained. Charing Cross railway bridge, one of the biggest eyesores in all Europe, is to go, and the railway and all con- nected therewith is to be moved to the south side of the river. An imposing new roadbridge ap- proach will tage the place of the old railway station, but it will extend to a point beyond the National Gallery. Finally, the south side of the river, now stridden with unsightly ware- houses, with mean streets running amongst them, is to be impoved by the building of an embankment, In this way the magnificent central curve of the river is expected to get the bridges it deserves at the right places. The overhead crossing of the Strand will be an untold boon to traffic, present and future. The em- bankment of the south side will add a new business quarter to London, very central and capable of carrying some of London's finest buildings. Even the Southern Railway will pro- fit much in the exchange, with a far roomier station, close to Waterloo and the Waterloo Undergroud at one end, and allowing for a splendidly placed hotel on the new embankment on the other. . The cost is estimated at $64,000,000, of which the Government will find three-quarters and L.C.C. a quarter, This huge expenditure will be spread over a number of years. » A coat of tan is quickly collected these days on the various bathing beaches.

Among artists and scholars Mr. Daniel has a great reputation for judgment and scholarship. He is well known in Scarborough where he has resided for many years. He was educated at Hepton and at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he took honors in science, and he holds the degrees of M.A. and M.B. His father was a medical man, and he himself qualified at London Hospital but has never practised. Mr. Daniel has taken great interest in Greek antiquities, and has travelled extensiyely in Greece. A member of the Contemporary Art Society for many years, he possesses a valuable collection of pictures by modern ar- tists, a good many of which were for- merly in much request at exhibitions. Among Mr, Daniel's Scarborough activities have been those of Chief Magistrate of the Borough in 1912-13, president of the Scarborough School of Art, and he has been a member of the Board of Management of the $carborough Hospital. He was the founder of the Scarborough Council of Social Welfare, which succeeded the Old Charity Organization Society and the Local Guild of Help, with both of which he was associated. He is a Justice of the Peace for the North Riding, and for the Borough of Scarborough. Mr. Daniel has also had close and valuable erperience in the domain of local government and education and contributed useful work in the organi- zation and control of hospital and other institutions during the war. His appointment by the Prime Minister three years ago to a trusteeship of the National Gallery came at a time when his knowledge and experience proved of service in the matter of the keen competition put up by United States collectors of great wealth and enter- prise. CUBA'S MISSING FLIERS CLASSED AS DESERTERS Havana, Cuba, Aug. 17.--Flight- Lieutenant Alberto Ponce de Leon of the Cuban Army and Lieutenant Paul Perezz de Quseada of the Navy, missing since they took off from the Government Air Field here last April during a heavy windstorm, .have been stricken from the rolls of the Army and Navy as deserters, The War De- partment, after an investigation in which it was unable to establish that the aviators were dead, brought a formal accusation of desertion and theft of the plane against them, MYSTERY OF NAVY NOW CLEARED UP London, Aug. 17.--A naval mystery of nine years standing has been brought to light by yester- day's announcement from Lenin- grad that the Brtish submarine L-55 had been raised in the Bal- tic, for apparently the British Ad- miralty itself had never known just how the submarine was lost. A brief communique was issued on June 12, 1919, announcing that an unnamed submarine, operating in the Baltic was missing, and that it was assumed that she had been lost with all hands. The relatives and next of kin were notified. That was all that the British public knew until yesterday's Leningrad news. It appears, according to the Russian account, that when the conning tower of the L-55 appear- ed above the surface of the water, the Russian destroyers Azard and Gavril began to shell it. After a few minutes an enormous cloud of black smoke arose, a dull de- tonation was heard and the sub- marine sank. The Russian account says that the fight in which the L-55 was sunk took place on June 4, 1919, and that previous to eoming to the surface the submarine fired three torpedoes, all 4' which went wide of their mark. It was not un- til last Spring that Kaporsk Bay was completely cleared of mines planted there during the war, and the raising of the vessel from the bottom of the bay was attended by great difficulty.
