THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, MARCH 14, 1947 PAGE FOUR LATEST NEWS OF THE COUNTY TOWN OF WHITBY Business Office, Miss G. Macpherson; Wm. T. Williams, Editor. Phone 703, All Departments Whitby Red Wings Win Game 11-8 But Lose Round 14-13 . Whitby Red Wings, 1946 Jr. "C" champions of Ontario, were elimin- ated from further competition as they defeated Gananoque 11-8 but lost on the round 14-13. Whitby went into the game down 4 goals and were unable to overcome the lead piled up by the visiting club, Whitby did, however, make a des- perate attempt to make a comeback as they scored four goals in four minutes of play after the score was tied at eight all. They made a brilliant but unsuccessful attempt to tie the score only to fall one short of the total piled up by the Gananoque team, In a thrill-packed game from the starting whistle to the last buzzer the Red Wings played good hockey. Whitby tried their best to get the necessary markers that would give them the deciding edge but their efforts were of no avail, ; Play was even for the first five "minutes as Whitby were slow get- -ting started. The Wings came to - life briskly and held the opposing ;club well in their own end of the , ice. It was not until the 8.30 mark -of the first period that Gates pick- .ed up a loose puck in front of the Gananoque net to bang one past Grue who was stretched out in front of the goal mouth, This goal brought great volumes of cheering from the crowd which was well in excess of 1200. This lead was short-lived however as Gananoque came racing back on- ly a minute later to slap one by Mc- "Ewen in the local twine. Whitby, lead by Lintner, came storming back to score their second tally of the ; game only 35 seconds after the visit- 'ing club had registered their ini- . tial marker. It then appeared as if the Whitby 'club had found their old pace as * Lintner combined with Lowe to put ", the home club out in front in the . game 3-1. Gananoque were not ou . of the running, however, and Hud- apart, Compeau and Reyes being the marksman in that er. Jackson were the marksmen for the - opposition club. Jackson's tally ; came as MacDonald was sitting out . a term in the cooler. i Hooker put the Whitby sextet ? in the as he made a Solo rush up the ice and let go a "long blazing shot that caught Grue off guard. Lintner scored his third ] the game as he took a neat from Willams to draw Grue } t to one side and dump the puck , into the open goal. » ue made a last period t-break and rapped in a quick goal as Whithy were unorganized. Gates, however, came through with his second marker of the game to make the score 7 all.. Atkins completed ..the scoring for the visitors. Whitby came to life and it ap- peared as if they were away to a Tunaway. L. Yuill sank his second ; tally of the game followed closely { by McCloskey. Williams, who played . heads up hockey for the Red Wings, . sank one to put the Whitby club up two goals in the game. McClos- . key rounded out the scoring for the Whitby team. . Whitby gave all they had but it . wasn't enough. Hooker and Willams were the pick of the locals with all the play- . ers glving everything they had. At- 'kins and Compeau were the big guns for the visiting club ! Who ue will meet in the next round of the series is not yet known. They have a game club and "should be right up at the top at the end of the year. ; Whitby appeared to be the better team on the whole last night but {were not quite good enough to ; overcome the lead piled up by the Gananoque club in last Monday's tilt.

Linesman :--Earl Hurst (Oshawa), Farm Camps Will Operate Again The Ontario Farm Service Force will again be operating boys and girls farm service camps, particularly in the fruit and vege- table areas of the province dur- ing the year of 1947, it ls an- nounced by Alex Maclaren, direc- tor of the force. Farm help con- ditions are still very acute throughout the province, and there will be a great need again this year for the help of young men and women, and of high 'school boys and girls after the school closing dates, to help with the cultivation and harvesting of essential food crops. Arrangements have been made for boys and girls camps in sev- eral strategic areas, from which young men and women, as well as the high school students, will go out to work on farms under the supervision of the tield officers of the Ontario Farm Service Farce. The first of these camps will be opening during the second week of April, in th Niagara district, and enrolment of young men and women who are free to go into camps for farm work at that time is now going on. Mr, Maclaren will be glad to have the applica- tions of any such young people, so that there may be an ample supply of labor available to fill these camps' requirements right from the start of the season. Other camps will be opened up as the season advances, The office of the Ontario Farm Service Force is now located at 9 Richmond Street East, Toronto, and the telephone number is Ade- laide 9461. Young men and wo- men interested in going to a Farm Service Camp from the beginning of the season, or at later dates, are urgently requested to com- municate with the Ontario Farm Service Force office at once, Expect 70,000 To Plow Match Kingston, March 14--(CP)--J. A. Carroll, of Toronto, manager of the International Plowing Match, at a meting yesterday of the local branch of the Ontario Plowman's Associa- tion, predicted that more than 70,- 000 persons would attend the Inter- national Plowing Match, which will xe held Oct. 14 to 17 at Hemlock ark Farms near here. 45 00 9 EATR NOW PLAYING Two Shows at 7:00 and 9:00; Saturday Matinee at 1:30 BOLDEST PROBING JOHN HODIAK NANCY GUILD . SOMEWHTRI IN TH] NIGHT Junior Girls Win Hoop Game 12-10 From Perry The junior girls of the Whitby High School held in check a de- termined quintet from Port Perry on Tuesday afternoon to win a hard-fought basketball encounter by a 12-10 score. Whitby broke infd the lead early in the first quarter and were never headed while at the same time holding the Port Perry girls virtu- ally in check continuously. Whitby counted several series of quick baskets and their defence as well as forward lines had it all over the visitors. During the first quarter the ball continually hovered around the visitors' cage and it was fortunate that only three field goals were chalked up against the Perryites. In the second quarter the visitors made a determined bid for a comeback but luck was against them and the half time score was recorded as 6-2 for Whitby. In the second half Port Perry came out like a different team and before the half was over had rapped in four baskets to Whitby"s three. It was only by stout defensive work on the part of the Whitby girls that the score was not at least tied up or possibly recorded in favour of the visitors. The was refereed by Miss 40| Smith of the Ontario Ladies Col- lege and she did a very good chore, handing out only three fouls all for minor offences. A large frowd was in attendance at the game further substantiating the claims of school officials that the hoop sport is becoming more and more popular around the local High School. Baskets were scored by the fol- lowing: Whitby: Marjorie Harris, 2; Elva Williams, 3; Theresa Jordan, 1. Port Perry: Joan Walker, 3; Mary Carnegie, 1; Marilyn Baird, 1. William Phoenix Called by Death At Greenbank Greenbank, March 12.--On Tues- day evening, March 4, there passed away at Greenbank another native born, in the name of William Phoe- nix in his 81st year, after an ill- ness of a little over two weeks.

W. M. 8, Meeting The regular monthly meeting of the W.M.S. was held in the base- ment of the church on Tuesday af- ternoon of this week with about twenty present. 'The meeting in charge of the president Mrs. F. Beare, who led the devotional ex- ercises and shared the carrying out of the program with Mrs. C. Ward. The speaker of the afternoon, Mrs. Lloyd Lee, who led the dis- cussion on the study book on "In- dia," the third chapter, The gen- eral theme being the "Women of Mrs. Lee began by dividing the group present into two sections, asking group No. 1 to keep in mind "what was the most impressive fac- tor in the progress of women in In- dia." Group No. 2 to compare women's opportunity of life to- day to that of the women of India." The speaker traced the gradual unfolding of women's worth and service in religion, education, social service and various other fields of helpfulness, breaking down long es- tablished usages bringing health fortunates. She concluded by ask- ing the groups the question she gave them on the start, the answer to the first one being "Education" and the second "Freedom." The Mission band service follow- ed with the president, Shirley Oan- son in charge, and the devotional exercises was profitably shared by Margaret and Lois Leask, Gwendo- lyn Till and Betty Reynolds. The exercises consisted of the call to worship, scripture reading, prayer and reading of the last meeting minutes. Mrs, McMaster told the story of "Life in India" illustrated by beau- tiful colored pictures. It was very pleasant and profitable throughout. The W.M.S. ladies had tables set members of the Mission band and school children. A very pleasant fellowship was shared and appreci- ated.

Legionnaires Play 2nd Round In Oshawa On Saturday Afternoon With the announcement today that the Whitby Legionnaires, local Intermediate "B" entry in the O.H.A. will play the second round of the playoff series against the Oshawa Legion in Oshawa on Sat- urday afternoon, a confusing ques- tion in the minds of local fans has been answered. Ever since last Tuesday's game in Taylor's Arena considerable 'speculation and a number of rumours have been mak- ing the rounds as to where and when the game would be played. Manager Jimmy Ross stated to- day that the accommodation at the Oshawa Arena had been secured for Saturday afternoon definitely and that the game time was listed as 245 pm, Saturday's game will be what is popularly referred to as a "sudden death playoff" with both = teams facing elimination if they end up on the wrong end of the score. Norm- ally the series was to be a total goals, home and home series, but by virtue of the 4-4 tie which was played here Tuesday night, the second game automatically means that the winmer will take all. If confidence means anything the Whitby boys are a cinch to take the series on Saturday. Team members and officials have expressed the opinion that the Tuesday evening fiasco was the worst yet played by the Legionnaires this year. How- ever, they point out that the ice was very soft on Tuesday and that was a contributing factor to the lack of speed shown by the local sextet. Team officials believe that the larger and faster ice surface will be the deciding factor in the Saturday game and have expressed confidence in their ability to down Oshawa on the larger surface. The Whitby crew are compara- tively free of injuries with only ace forward Johnny Heard being on the injured list. Johnny is still re- covering from a badly fractured hand received in a league encounter with the Lindsay Flyers. Several of the White boys have complained about pulled muscles and tendons but nothing serious has been re- ported. A large contingent of local fans is expected to accompany the Leg- ion to Oshawa on Saturday and that coupled with the fans of the Oshawa Club is expected to con- tribute to a large gate. Officials ex- pressed satisfaction at the number of fans who have been turning out to the Legion playoff encounters here pointing to the 250-300 fans & L 4 who attended the Tuesday night game. Rink officials expressed the opin- fon that the game would have drawn a much larger crowd on Tuesday except for inclement weather conditions which prevailed. The weather was described as too mild for good hockey playing and consequently the gate suffered. However, on the Oshawa Arena surface which consists of artificial ice it is believed that the weather will not be a contributing factor to the gate. Badminton Club Downs Uxbridge In Local Tourney The Whitby Badminton Club was host to the Uxbridge Badminton club in a series tournament Wed- nesday night in the High School Gymnasium. The Whitby Club won the tournament by a score of 13-5. High scorers on the Whitby and Uxbridge teams were as follows: Men's Doubles--Whitby: Harry Bracey, Frank Wells, Uxbridge: B. Gould, P. Berhardt. Ladies' Doubles--Whitby: E. An- nan, L. Sleightholm, Uxbridge: B. Creasy, D. Filgiano. Mixed Doubles--Whitby: Mr. and Mrs. H. Bracey. Uxbridge: Mr, and Mrs. B. Gould. A return tournament has been arranged for the two clubs in Ux- bridge next Wednesday evening and a good representation from the Whitby Olub is expected to make the trip. At the close of the local tourna- ment luncheon was served and a social hour was enjoyed. Whithy In Brief Accounts of social events and of visitors to and from the town are appreciated by this department The March meeting of the Eve- ning Group, of the WMS, of the United Church, will be held in the 'Sunday School Hall, on Monday, March 17th, at 8 pm. Miss Mary Arnold will be the guest speaker, Everyone welcome. SNOW LICKED Road Superintendent Fred O'Dell stated yesterday that the snow In Whitby has been "licked" by un- tiring efforts on the part of Town workmen, Today he stated that the weatherman and his rain had al- most completely finished the job, LARGE ATTENDANCE An estimated 1200 fans attended the Junior "C" hockey game in Osh- awa last night and saw the Whitby Red Wings down the Gananoque crew 11-8 on the game but lose the all important playoff round by a 14-13 count. Whitby fans returned home last night looking like a very dejected assembly and one could not blame them. So near and yet so far, MAYOR BUSY . One of the busiest men in the Oshawa Arena last night was "Hi- zonner" the Mayor of Gananoque. It seems that every time the visitors scored a goal his bowler hat would sail unceremoniously onto the play- ing surface where the players would kick it around for a while before returning it to him. Finally he was seen with the travelling head gear tucked under his arm. An interesting program dealing with world affairs at the present time was given ~at the United Church YP.U, meeting Tuesday night. The program was presented by Jack Foster and a lively discus- sion on the subject followed. The next meeting will be held on March 18 at 8 o'clock sharp and members are urged to be present at that time.

Mr. O'Dell offered this opinion yes- terday in an interview. In addition to the permit for the service station only two other build- ing permits were granted during the month approximately a total cost of a further $600. The total amount of permits issued during February being only $14,600 a considerable decrease in building was experi- enced when compared with figures of the same month last year which amounted to $22,050 with 11 permits being issued. A considerable drop is also indi- cated in figures for the year to date which shows a total figure of $17,640 as compared with the same period in 1946 when a total cost of $56,050 was. represented by building permits issued. . Mr, O'Dell stated that he could not explain the apparent lack of building during the first two months but added that prevailing weather conditions and the abund- ance of snow experienced this year may be the reason. He said that a considerable amount of construc- tion both for houses and business structures is expected to commence very shortly and estimated that the total building value during 1947 would approximate or eclipse the 1046 total of $300,000. One of the main increases in the construction of private homes is ex- pected in view of the fact that many Integrated Housing homes will be built here in conjunction with the Federal Government's Wartime Housing scheme. In addi- tion it is expected that private contracts will eclipse the 1946 fig- ures as well as building by private individuals. The new service station proposed for Whitby by the British Ameri- can Oil Company will be erected on Dundas St. W. near the premises of Pickering Farms. It is slated to be an ultra-modern structure con- taining four large rooms and wash room facilities and will- be con- structed of concrete block and stucco. Mr, O'Dell could give no indica- tion as to when the building would be constructed but stated that he believed the company plans to com- mence work on the project in the early spring. The Whitby Town Planning Board was consulted on the advisability of granting the per- mit for the new service station and they passed favourably on the pro- posal, The other permits granted for the month were to Ronald Agg for the purpose of making alterations to his store at a cost of $500 and to Glen Martyn, 307 Mary St. for the purpose of constructing a col- ony chicken house at an approxi- mate cost of $100, It is understood that the de- crease In building in the first two months of this year correspond favourably wit'. other centres where it is expected a building boom will commence during the spring and summer months.
