Locals Not Hitting The Petes should have no com- plaints to make over the manner in which they gained the verdict, Had the local: ball tossers been playing the airtight ball they are capable of, they would now be fighting for the top rung of the second section and. the right t0 meet the Petes for the pennant which waves in front of the grandstand at the ball park at the present time, instead of resting in seventh place next to Port Hope, Saturday's performance could not be criticized because the Booth boys _ Played snappy enough ball to win "ander ordinary circumstances, Had they connected for a couple of real hits there would have been nothing to it, but the batters have not been hitting the ball to, any extent for several games and this largely has been responsible for the losing streak.

Umpires--Rosevear and Barnes, Perjury (Continued from page 1) the company, Mr Mundy on Janu- ary 11 had been called out of town and Mr. Conant had called upon Mr. Alloway to swear to the affidavit. He had called Mr. Alloway to his of- fice and had handed him the docu- ment which bad been prepared for Mr. Mundy. He didn't think, however, that the defendant knew the statement was untrue and while making the affida- vit carelessly, nevertheless he made it in good faith, If he had been. put to any inconvenience in facing trial-- inconvenience such as would come to a man of Mr. Alloway's standing in being compelled to appear in court--it was all because he wasn't careful enough. He discharged the prisoner, Had Sufficient Assets Throughout the trial which lasted from eleven o'clock in the morning till about six o'clock in the evening the plaintiff endeavored to show that the Feldspar Company had sufficient avail- able assets to meet the costs in connec- tion with the libel action, should that action have been continued. The defendant endeavored to show that such was not the ored to show that such was not the case, the main point in the evidence on My. Alloway's behalf being that the General Motors Corporation retained control of the land which the company o® | comucnmss?® 27 1 -- occupies on Ritson Road until such time as the land was finally paid for. At. the time of the affidavit the land had not been fully paid for and when Mr, Conant made a search at the re- gistry office he found that the pro- perty was not in possession of the Feldspar Company on January 11, Col. Farewell, of Whitby, Crown Pro- secutor, during the afternoon pointed out that a man could commit perjury in two ways, either by swearing to something that one doesn't know to be true or by swearing to something on which one knows himself to be ignor- ant, Judge Ruddy remarked that it was gross carelessness to swear to something about which one knew noth- ing and was surely perjury, Mr, W. K. Murphy, K.C,, of Toronto, coun- sel for the defence, in addressing His Honor, cited a case showing that where a man relies on his solicitor's advice that this will nullify - his swearing in ignorance, Col. Fare- well, in addressing the bench, remarked - that Mr, Alloway either knew or didn't know the facts when making the statement, The witnesses for the prosecution were Messrs. A, Grauel, Wm, Symons, president of Feldspar Limited; W. E, N, Sinclair, K.C,, M.P.P,, solici- tor for the company; G, F, Turney, who erected the building standing on the property on Ritson Road and Mr, M. C. Rose, who negotiated the sale of land, The evidence was almost en- tirely a repetition of that given at the preliminary hearing. During his evidence Mr. Sinclair took the opportunity to object to the publi- cation in The Reformer of certain evidence given in the preliminary trial in Oshawa, The evidence brought out in Oshawa and to which Mr, Sinclair referred in Whithy was the following: -- (Mr, G, D, Conant, cross-examin- ing Mr, Wm, Symons.) "Here is a solemn affidavit and you admit you don't know whether you read it or not?" "Yes" : "It is done every hour of the day," remarked Mr. Conant. "Was that affidavit explained to you?" asked Col. Farwell. "Yes, Mr, Sinclair sald we had ample assets, He drew it up and I signed it." "But you won't say Mr. Sinclair read this over sentence by sentence and explained it?" "I could not." "I would not expect you to. What were the assets that can be taken. The assets of January 11 that could be realized on by way of execution?" "The assets were the buildings, the land, the equipment we had. 'The company had the use of patents which I don't know whether they would go in or not." "You stated in this affidavit that the plaintiff have ample assets that can be realized on by the defence by way of execution in case of an ad- verse verdict being given. What as- sets did you refer to there? Yon know what execution means?' "No, Mr, Sinclair made it out." "I am not going to press you be- cause I know the practice that is followed, and that is why I feel it was folly that this charge should be entered, Did you read it? I am not going to enter any charge against you?' "I don't know." Mr. Sinclair stated that the insinua- tion was left that he drew up affida- vits for his clients and had the docu- ments signed without them reading them over, Mr. Symons he said, read over the affidavit he drew up. He didn't like the hint that he did busi- ness in any other way, Mr. G. D. Conant, solicitor for the Reformer Company, in giving his evidence told how he had drawn up the affidavit which was signed by Mr. Alloway. He had searched the registry office for the title to the land which the Feldspar Company occupied and had found on January 11 that the property was still in the possession of the General Motors Corporation. Mr. Murphy, counscl for the defence, later pointed out that even if the land were worth a million dollars and was not register- ed in the name of the Felspar Com- pany, the solictor would only have searched the registry office and found that the property could not he called an asset, Mr. C, M, Mundy, until recently president of The Reformer Company gave evidence showing that the af- fidavit in question had been drawn up for him by Mr, Conant, He him- self had relied almost entirely on his solicitor's advice 'although he Lad also made a few enquiries in connection with the financial stand- ing of the Feldspar people. Mr. Al- loway on the stand in his own de- fence, corroborated the evidence of Mr. Conant, He had also mdde 2a few enquiries, among them some having been made of Mr, Turney who was working for the Feldspar Company at the time. Mr. Turney had then said that 'he was being paid," although he did not say that he "had heen paid." Mr. W. E. N. Sinclair assisted the Crown Attorney whilee Mr. G. D. Conant acted in an advisory capacity to Mr. W. Murphy counsel for the accused, Outside (Continued from page 1) New Teachers, The new teachers are at King Street, Miss Ferguson, of Richard's Landing; Miss Irene Mitchell, of Oshawa, who has returned to the staff after a year's absence; at Mary Street Miss Eileen Found, of Oshawa, and Miss Velma Dean, of near Peterboro; at Hillcroft School, Miss Florence Heslop, of Port Robinson; at Centre Street Miss Ruby Knight, of Oshawa, Miss Marjorie Bryans, of Thorndale, and Miss Kath- leen Dunbar, of Peterboro; at Albert Street Miss Pfohl, of Carlsruhe, and Gladys Cornish, of Oshawa; and Miss Green, of Niagara Falls; Miss Givens, of Beaverton, and Miss Dorothy Heslop of Port Robinson, High School Taxed Too. Accommodation at the High School is likewise taxed to capacity. There is a substantial increase over the open- ing day last year, when 283 were pre- sent, as compared with 319 on Tues- day. This number was increased to 325 yesterday, and Principal J. G. Alt- house expects the number will be fur- ther increased, At the close of the term in the spring there were 326 on the roll, The nut, Principal Althouse is trying to crack is where to place a third first form which he has found necessary to create because of the in- flux of students, due in a measure *0o the enforcement of a further section of the adolescent act, This class is at present being moved from one room to another. It may be necessary to en- gage another teacher to assist in the work. Two teachers were engaged last May to replace two who resigned. The new teachers are: Miss M. G. Quinn, commercial specialist, at a salary of $2.100, and Mr. George Farmer, junior science master, at a salary of $2,200. School Book Demand. The demand for school books ex- perienced at Henderson Brothers' book store also shows the greatly increased number of students this year. Speaking to The Reformer Mr. Thomas Hender- son stated that their business this year has been fifty per cent. greater than jast. He remarked that this fall they No Meeting To-night. While the Parks Commission re- cently decided that in the future it would hold a monthly meeting on the evening of the first Thursday in every month, there will be no meet- ing of the board to-night, the first Thursday in September.

The demand of the High School pupils has also increased, one figure being quoted as an example. Last fall only 64 High School Algebras were sold, while this September 84 have been pur- chased from Henderson Brothers, Mr, Henderson spoke in the most complimentary terms of the High School staff for the efficient way in which they have informed the pupils what hooks they will require. 'He also praised Mr, J, G. Althouse, the High School principal, for the co-operation he extended to the firm during the summer by informing them of the ap- proximate number of pupils this fall, an act which enabled them to place orders calculated to most completely meet the demands of the pupils, Most of the school books were pur- chased on Tuesday afternoon, the store being crowded all the time. Mr, T, Henderson estimates that 4,000 people were in the store that day. He thought that the greatest increase in the de- mand for school books had been in the commercial department of the High School although he cited figures show- ing that whereas the primary rooms of the Public Schools last year took only 200 primers, this year over 500 have already been disposed of, The only change in public school § books has been made in the geogra- phies. These, however, have not yet been issued for sale, but the publish- § ers promise them for September 21. In the books used at the High School there have been two changes, namely the "History of Canada," and the "His- tory of England." Each year there are changes in the texts used in the classes in literature, and French, German and Latin authors, but these are only vari- ations in the. works studied, The changes in the histories mean that two new books have been adopted as stan- dard texts, he will be unable Saturday of each Oshawa, Successes of.
