He said that the.two men were J, J. Donnelly and a man named Craddock and they are wanted in Whitby for allegedly passing worthless cheques to local merchants on Jan. 18. Chief Elliott said that according to information received from the North Bay police department the two men were picked up there while attempting to pass cheques in the same manner as they apparently did here, The official charge to be laid against the men, according to the Chief, will be "fraud by means of cashing worthless cheques." He added that on Jan, 18 the men were in Whitby and approached several merchants with a view to cashing cheques. While it is understood the majority of merchants approached by the pair refused to cash the cheques but that the pair had been successful in their efforts at two local stores. Chief Elliott stated that follow- ing the regular procedure in North Bay the men would be returned to Whitby to stand trial, High School And Ladies College Play Hoop Series Whitby High School played host to two basketball teams from the Ontario Ladies College on Monday and managed to win the junior game by a score of 14-7 while drop- big the senior tilt by a 18-12 mar- gin. The games were well attended and cheer leaders lent their verbal support to the cause in an effort to cheer their favourites on to victory. Senior Game Hard playing entered'in the first half of this game, and both teams appeared rather exhausted when: the bell rang to finish it, Crawford scored the first basket followed by Curtis popping a single. Wigston and Ferguson continued to add to the College's mounting total, In the second quarter J. McIntyre and Wigston each captured doubles before the geng sounded, Previous to the second half, Whitby was be- hind 2 baskets in a score of 6-10. B, Emorey scored a major to be- gin this half, and fast plays fol- lowed. Crawford added 2 points be- fore making good 2 foul shots. This quarter was swift and the plays tricky. Good guarding aided the forwards through both games. To finish the last quarter, Fer- guson hit the strings followed by McIntyre adding a double dipper. Crawford and Wigston aimed straight and drew a point for good foul shots. Although W, H. 8B. seniors lost to O.L.C. by three baskets, to a score of 12-18, they show promise of bet- ter scores in the future. Junior Game The Junior game was not as tiring as the Senior, but good play- ing and close competition appeared. Whitby High School won this game by a score of 14-7. Most of the play was cetritred around the Whitby basket where E. Williams scored the first points. M. Deller followed to end the first quarter. Whitby took care of the second quarter with M. Karriss scooping 2 baskets and E. Williams a single. T. Jordon scored to begin the sec- ond half, After a awuumber of toss- ups, M. Deller shot a good foul shot. 'C. Broughton's 2 more points ended the third period with a score of 10-5. The most exciting part of the game was the last quarter. Both teams had begun to tire, but it did not seem to affect the playing. M. Halres scored 2 points, and Skut« esky added points to her team's score. The playing got quicker, and M. Deller summed up the game by swooping in the final basket for OLC. Mrs. Wilkins refereed both games. These games were well @layed and the players certainly deserved their victories. - Jane McIntyre and C. Wigston proved outstanding players on the senior team and M. Harris and M. Deller on the Junior, In Memoriam YARMOLA--In loving memory of our dear Mother, Ann Yarmola, who passed away, February 12th, 1945.

Chuck King got Poverty In Is Stressed Association The guest speaker at last night's United Church Men's As- sociation dinner held in the Un- ited Church was Peter MacDon- ald, Assistant General Manager of the Crown Life Assurance Com- pany, who recently completed a world-wide trip inspecting his company's holdings in the Middle and Far East, : Mr. MacDonald outlined brief. ly his views tn conditions in the various countries he visited on the trip emphasizing the "almost un- believeable proverty" in most I'ar and Middle East countries, Mr. MacDonald told the gather- ing that his company had oper- ated an office in Orient since 1929 and following the end of World War II he had been sent there to verify and inspect the company offices in the countries that were occupied by the Japan- ese, He said that in his first exper- fence with inflation he was much surprised and a little startled to find that it would cost 15 thous- and Chinese dollars to have his baggage taken by a Shanghai na- tive from the boat to an hotel in the city, In further demonstrating this point he gave the following figures as general expenses: Lolg- ing-$20,0€0.00, Breakfast--$10,~ 000.00 and newspaper $300.00 He added that he was consider- ably startled to find that in a two week period in Shanghal he had spent sométhing over one million Chinese dollars, Mr. MacDonald stated that so far as he could figure the cur- rency in China would have to be completely changed and re-issued before the government could hope to fight t he present inflation prices in the country, However, he stressed the importance of an agreement first between the Chinese Communists and the Chinese Nationalists. "At the pre- sent moment" he said "there is'no middle class in China, only the rich and the poor class." He told the gathering that brib- ery and graft was almost stand- ard proceedure in the country and that as a result the economic Standards of China were suffer- ng. Mr, MacDonald sald that of all the territories in the Far East the only one that was making any Far East By Men's Speaker noticeable recovery since the end ofthe war was Hong Kong. He added that under British guld- ance the people were beginning once more to carry on business and trade in pre.\.ar style, He stressed, however, that here too proverty of an - unbelieveable nature was to be found, Tracing his trip Mr. MacDonald said that he travelled from Hong Kong to the Phillipines, Siam, India, Egypt and the British Isles. He said that in India 90 per cent of the population of the country, which was estimated to be close to 500 million, was fllit- erate, He added that he believed that this factor was responsible for much of the trouble in the country today. Mr. MacDonald sald that in In- dia the people do not have daily newspapers, radios and transport- ation systems as they are known in Canada but mainly have #2 rely on what they are told about the world happenings and polic- ies, He added that ths overall picture of India today is one of ancient wooden plows, ox teams and drudgery, Sentinment in Egypt against the British is higher than any other place he visited he said and added that the government is strictly a minority body who are kept in power by the King and the Army, Speaking of Great Britain Mr. MacDonald sald that conditions in Britain now are much worse than they were in 1939 and that they are getting worse all the time, He added that the British people realize that their only Sal- vation lies in the export trade, Mr, MacDonald said that when he returned to Canada. following the tour he was extremely proud to say he was a Canadian. He said that no matter where he went in Europe or Asia the attitude to- wards Canada was that she was not a colony or a possession but rther a full-fledged nation, He stressed that everyone he spoke to was familiar with the marvel- lous job that Canada had done during the war, He sald that Canada and Can- adians have the chance now to make the country one of the fin. est in the world and all that it needed to do this is a larger pop- ulation, Villas And Play Fast Exhibition At Local High School Hasbeens In a fast, rapid-fire challenge basketball game played last night in the Whitby High School gym- nasium the Whitby Spruce Villas, Lakeshore Intermediate entry, de- feated the Whitby "Hasbeans"' by a close 28-26 count, The game as the score would in- dicgte was very close throughout with the Villas fading badly in the final quarter allowing the Hasbeans to diminish the lead the Villas had held up to this point. Although the Spruce Villa team led all the way they never had more than a three-point lead at any time. The Hasbeans, though lack- ing in form, had plenty of fighting spirit. A grand total of 18 personal fouls were handed out, 9 to each squad, which kept referee' Munroe moving all the time. : The Intermediates cannot be un- derestimated though as they were without the services of some of their key-men which might have made quite a difference. The game started off rather slowly, both teams using a man to set-up which prevented a wide-open scoring scrimmage. The Interme- diates led 6-4 a quarter time but play remained even. By half-time, however, both teams found some of their shooting form the Intermediates were still out in front 15-12 and deserved the slight lead on the play as they were just a little smoother on their pass- ing and shooting and the Has- beans showed signs of tiring. In this half Robson led the scor- ing for the Ints. with 5 points, Sal- way and Villeneuve collected three apiece. Anderson and George both hit the strings once, For the Has- beans George Allen got his share a couple of nice long shots from way om ka Doug Allen looped a run-up &.ot. In the second half the teams were showing more life. The Has-beans were catching their second wind and the game on the whole looked a little smoother. By the time three quarter way rolled around both teams had been doing some nice sniping and passing. The Ints led only 18-17 and it was still anyones game, The Ints had played togeth- er longer but this didn't seem to bother the Has-Beans as they broke up every passing combination while they themselves made up some new ones as they went along. Old Boys Rally In the fourth and final quarter it was a real battle as the Has- beans rallied all the way and were still at it when the final whistle sounded. Beaten, lanky centre for the Has-beans, potted 5 points into the basket, Hollenbury earned 4 points, Jack Allen and Wilde each collected a basket and Doug Allen Boasion his total by making a foul 0 'With only seconds to go, the Has- beans were shooting from all angles in an effort to tie the score but it was fruitless, It was only the fine shooting of Anderson and George who collected seven points between them in the early minutes of the quarter which saved the Interme- diates from defeat, Tindall, Thomp- son and Robson also collected bas- kets in this half, For Intermediates Robson, An- derson and George were the point- getters, collecting 18 points between them. George Allen and Don Bea- ton led the Has-beans with 11 points between them.

James Griffen, Whitevale, Ont., driver of the car, received severe head injuries and severe cuts to the eye and face and his condit- ton is reported as critical by hos- pital authorities and Michael Oake, Uxbridge, a passenger in the car, received a severe lacera- tion to the left hand and head in- juries, Another passenger in the car, F, A, Major, Whitevale, was not injured, The driver of the truck, Jack Dunlap, Campbell- ford, also escaped injury. Whitby police department of- ficials said that the accident oc- curred just. west of the Spruce Villa Hotel on Dundas St, shortly after midnight, Major is reported to have told police that the bright headlights of a car, proceeding east in front of the truck, blinded the driver of the car which was going west and consequently the car had crashed into the truck just to the rear of the cab.

Part of the mystery concerning the queer creature recently found in the vicinity of the Town Hall and now reposing in an aquarium in the Whitby High School was solv- ed today by Mr, T, P, Menzies, curator of the Vancouver museum, The salamander- type insect, which was found by two school boys and turned over to science teachers at the school, wei refer- red to recently by a school official as a "mud-puppy". However, this statement caused criticism in cer tain quarters of town by people who claimed that the creature was not a "mud.puppy" but in reality was an axolotl, The aver- age man wouldn't know the dif- ference anyway, however, Mr, Menzies' description of an exols otl seems to fit the description of the mystery creature which in- cidentally is equipped with both lungs and fins, This is the point that caused a great deal of com. ment and theorizing, One citizen was #0 positive that the "mud-puppy" was an axolotl that he immediately procured a photograph of one and presented it for appraisal, The description of an axolotl as given by Mr, Menzies when his museum was the recipient of a & bh 4 gift of a palr of them was as fol. lows: "The axolotls don't seem to glve a hoot about the law of evol« ution," says Mr. Menzies, "They live, reproduce and die as tad- poles, never shedding their fuzzy gills to step out of their watery world," Axoltls were discovered and named by the Aztec Indians who strayed south towards Mexico in the 12th century, One of two local specimens is a six.inch albino female beauty with siren red gills; her greenish black male companion is eight inches long, While the female flirts on the surface of her home in a cosy water-filled tank, the male sulks on the slimy, rocky bottom. These uncivilized tadpoles like earthworms but spurn all vegete able matter, Cannibalistic ten Ji dencies become evident if the ax- ji olotl is not fed regularly, He, or she, will snap off the leg of an. other reptile. Well there you are. Both sides of the argument, It now is up to the students and teachers and the general public as to whether the whatdoyoucallit is a mud-puppy or an axolotl, We reserve our judgment, Whitevale Groups To Hold Valentine Parties On Friday By EDITH M. PARKS Whitevale, Feb, 12--There will be an old-fashioned box social held this coming Friday evening in the I0.OF. Halll The Valentine party is being held by the B.Y.P.U. and will begin at 8 o'clock. There will be a guest speaker for the evening in the person of Professor Finch of the University of Toronto, Follow= ing the devotional period, there will be a program of games, followed by refreshments. The Women's Association of the Whitevale United Church is holding a Valentine party on the afternoon of St. Valentine's Day, Festivities are being held at Mrs. Wilbur John- ston's home.

Mr, James Sinclair was in charge of devotions at "Cottage Prayer meeting" on Tuesday evening, Feb- ruary 4, at the home of Mr. and Mus, Alf, Michell, The weather was indeed decidedly cold; but in 'spite of that there was a good attend ance. Mr. E. Forsythe read the Scripture lesson, upon which Mr, Sinclair based his message which brought ows the truth that no church is truly alive in Christ une less every member is a soul-winner, A church without a missionary oul look is spiritually dead. : A ladies quartette was very much J enjoyed; as was the presence and message of Rev, Morley Hall, secre« tary of the Union of Regular Bap- tist Churches, when they took' part in the service of Firdt Baptist Church on Sunday morning. Mr. Hall's message was based on the building of the first Christian church, and its cornerstone--Peter, He urged church members, or prose pective members, to become regen erated before they attempted to be church members, He also pointed out that the true Christian church will always find itself persecuted from all sides; but if it is strong In the Lord, it will grow greater through persecution. Following the regular evening service of worship, Rev, John Mc- Lachlan the pastor of Whitevale United Church showed beautifully colored slides on China. This spe- cial program was held on Sunday evening, February 9. When we hear of the suffering of the folk in Europe, Asia, the Old Country and Western Canada, who through cold and the will of man are caused discomfort, we should be prayerfully thankful that we are spared, and should pray for the re lief of these poor souls. We learn |! from folk here who have loved ones Hi in these hard-hit countries, that § they are forced to wear coats ine doors (if they have them) and do with 300 pounds of fuel per month, Miss Jean Fleming is recovering from a serious illness.
