FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE Intermediates Hopeful Of Title Chances Coach Jack McCarroll of the Whitby Intermediate baseball club said today that he has the utmost confidence in his 1947 edition and feels sure that if they do not take the intermediate title this year they will most certainly be battling for the title right to the finish. This observation was made by Coach McCarroll after watching the lusi practice of the team on Wed nuesday evening. Many of the 1946 players are back trying out for a position on the team again this year and it is felt that the presence of several of the "old timers" will have a steddying influence on the team as a whole. It is planned to sign the players to certificates: this evening if all goes well and then the really tough part of the training schedule will commence, The Intermediates have slightly more than a week in which to prepare for their opening game against Port Hope which will be played in Whitby on Victoria Day, May 24. Listed among the veterans trying out for a position on the club this , year are: Rea, Knibb, L. Yulll, Mac- Donald, Reid, Major, Dafoe and Gates. Although none of the above named players has cinched his po- sition in the starting lineup they all have shown to good advantage in the pre-season practices. Another item which has Coach McCarroll all in smiles is the way the Town Council has seen fit to improve the ball diamonds in the Town Park. Considerable expense and time has been spent. on the park this year by a crew under the direction of Councillor Seymour Whitney, chairman of the Town Property Committee of the Town Council and the players, manage- ment and fans are almost certainly assured that the park will be in the best baseball shape it has been in for many years. y. Coach McCarroll observed that the five team Lakeshore League with which the Whitby club will be affiliated will be no cinch this year. Other teams in the league include Peterborough, Port Hope, Bowman- ville and Newcastle and they all are listed by McCarroll as "mighty tough opposition in any man's ball league."

Force Headquarters, Ottawa, The sets, threesaf which will be in oper- ation in 1947, will be located at Greenwood, N. S.; Rockcliffe, Ont.; Centralia, Ont.; Rivers, Man.; Churchill, Man.; and Patricia Bay B. C. In addition to its use in RCAF routine cperations, the emipment will be available for any aircraft in distress, Developed in 1942 and in general use during the last two years, GCA is considered one of the most prac- final answer to air-accident preven- tion, the RCAF feels that the sets will do much to aid pilots who find themselves in difficulty due to in- clement weather conditions, Most of the other landing aids have the dis- advantage of needing airborne in- stallations, but GCA is able to assist any aircraft having a normal two- way radio. GCA units are completely mobile and are contained in a 45,000 1b truck and trailer that may be mov- ed from one runway to another in g matter of minutes. The original GCA sets were manned by a crew of 5 or more, but the RCAF modified ver- sion will ke operated by only two men. The set uses a very high, sta- tic-free, frequenries in order that aircraft may be chserved and guid- ed to a landing in the poorest wea- ther conditions, Each GCA set has a series of radar scopes that deter- , | mine the height, bearing and dis- tance of the aircraft from the air- field, giving the controller accur- ate information on its location. One of the precision scopes acts as a type of glide-path indicator by which the controller may accurate- ly bring the pilot down on his final approach and landing. One of the main factors in the Successful operation of GCA lies in the ability of the operators to in- struct accurately the pilot of the aircraft. RCAF operators will be se- lected from trained Flying Control personnel and will receive specializ- ed instruction from American ex- perts before commencing operation of the equipment, The safety record of GOA speaks for itself. More than 130,000 land- ings have been effected without a fatal accident. The USAAF alone gives credit to GCA for the safe landing of almost 3,000 aircraft that would otherwise have been forced tc crash-land or put down in the sea, Hungry Thief Gets Big Haul Pietermaritzburg, South Atriea --(CP)--A hungry thjef made an unexpected haul recently when he broke into the premises of a bar in the main street here, opened the refrigerator--and found more than £100 ($400) in notes, To foil thieves, the money was not placed in the safe, which is only a few yards from the re- frigerator, No attempt had been made to open the safe, ber of bottles of cordial and a bottle of sherry were also stolen. Apart from the money, a num- Priest Seeking Modification Of Ban on Raffles Napier, N.Z. = (CP) -- "No- wher, does. the law of God for- bid gambling, provided no fraud, injustice or deceit enter into it," said Rev. O. H. Seymour, speak- ng before the Royal Commisgion on Gaming in New Zealand in support of a petijion seeking re- lief from certain restrictions on raffles and games organized for the benefit of bona fide charities and educational purposes. Father Soymour, who sald -tho petition was presented with the approval of Archbishop O'Shea, Roman Catholic Archbishop of New Zealand, said the concern of the petition was the financing of the heavy burdens of the Roman Catholic schools. Only secular schools receive state support in New Zealand and the large num- ber of Catholic schools of all types get no grants from the govern. ment, "We are free to use our facili- ties or possessions to secure moral gain," sald Father Seymour in his evidence. "We may not do so by. dishonest means, but gam- bling in itself is not dishonest. "The unfortunate fact that some people are tempted to go to excess and practise dishonesty in sambling pts ticw [4 tie wrong, but it does not make gambling in | moderation {intrinsically wrong," declared the petition, In reply to a question Father Seymour said that if the church received state aid for its schools, it would not be asking for pere mission to hold raffles.
