Once again this club is taking the lead in providing orderly entertainment for children whose boundless energies on this one night of the year might otherwise get them in-® volved in trouble. The band will be out to lead the children to the hall. There, judg- ing of costumes will be done and prizes allotted in many classes. De- tails will be announced later. Mov- ing pictures of a highly entertain- ing nature, cartoons and comics will be part of the entertainment plan- ned. Everything is free to the chil- dren, including refreshments, Citizens have expressed the opin- Jon to The Times-Gazette that in making this generous gesture to the youth of the town, the Kinsmen Club should not be unnecessarily out of pocket. Their suggestion is that a maximum donation of $1 (or fess) should be made by parents who appreciate what the club is going to do for their offspring on Hallowe'en night. Donations will be taken by any member of the club and particularly by the treasurer, Ben Hamilton, at the Dominion Bank. By early next week particulars of the pictures to be shown and other details should be available. Mickey Mouse will be on hand -- that in itself is sufficient attraction to bring every child to the town hall early in the evening on Hallowe'en night. News of the Week From Ashburn MRS.

Bowmanville Shades Whitby H.S. 8-7 In Thrilling Classic By DAVE HAIRE ; In Bowmanville Wednesday afternoon Whitby High School suffered their second defeat of the football season when they dropped a close 8-7 decision to Bowmanville High School in a game which was a toss-up all the way. students gave the Purple and Gold squad plenty of support by turning out to the game in large numbers and they were given plenty to cheer about when Whit- by came from behind an eight point deficit to almost tie the score. Although rain threatened several times throughout the encounter, it held off.- Grounds were in near- perfect condition. After a beautiful kick-off Whit- by tacklers swarmed down the field to bring down the receiver on Bowmanville's 20-yard strip. In this quarter Whitby showed a defi- nite edge in play as their strong forward wall turned back plunge after plunge. Bowmanville end runs were thrown for big losses. However, even though Bowman- ville was hemmed they still man- aged to stop Whitby from scoring. After minutes had elapsed in the second quarter Bowmanville inter- cepted a pass at the centre strip from where De Geer lofted a high spiralled kick which hit the dead- line to open the scoring and give Rowmanville a one point lead. The Purple and Gold team, weakened defensively at this point. B.H.S. drove deep into Whitby territory from where Cattran of Bowman- ville romped over the goal line on a 20-yard jaunt to give Bowman- ville the first major score, De Geer making good the convert. Whitby still seemed unable to get moving against the big red squad and De Geer scored another point on a punt which reached the dead- line as Bowmanville had a definite edge in the kicking department. In the closing minutes of the quarter Whitby finally came to life and charged from their own 20 to Bow- manville's 15 on five plays, two of them passes from Hayes to Haire in rapid succession which kept Bowmanville disorganized. Time ran out before any scoring could be accomplished. Plenty of Spirit After Coach John Moncur's pep talk Whitby wert into the second half like a new team as their huge line pushed Bowmanville. all over the field and the backfield finally began to click with H. Molyneux making some neat runs. Jerry Rowland put Whitby in their scering position when he caught a stray pass which had been deflect- ed from the passer"s hands by Ward and galloped all the way to the Bowmanville 2-yard line from where Hayes passed to Johnson for a touchdown. This was converted by McLeod. Still trailing, the locals put on a great effort to overtake Bowman- ville. Danny Collins fired a 45- yard pass to 8. McLeod who took it on the run 'and was brought down on the Bowmanville 18-yard line. Here the locals ran into stiff opposition as the Red team held for three successive plunges. Bowmanville Holds Bowmanville was then forced to kick and with time running out Whitby elected to try a field goal with McLeod doing the honors. But it was wide and went for a single point, making the score 8-7 for Bowmanville with only minutes to go. Deserve Better Fate Bowmanville was just hanging on as the whistle sounded to end the game with Whitby in posses- sion still driving for the extra point. The Whitby crew put on a stirring finish and deserved a bet- ter fate. The locals much im- proved in certain departments as both Ward and Johnson turned in nice performances at end positions with Johnson doing some nice kicking as well. Whitby's line was a big factor in the Purple and Gold with Love, Simmonds, Gledhill, Moss and J. Simmonds doing a fine job. In the backfield Hayes and Collins did some neat passing but McLeod at quarter did a good job of calling signals. Bowman- ville's kicker De-Geer was their main asset with huge Hank Tam- blyn at right middle being their best defensive player. Cattran Stop Lights Off Cause Hazard At Four Corners Although no accidents have hap- pened while the traffic lights are off at the corner of Dundas and Brock streets during the five to six o'clock power cut-offs there has been a certain amount of traffic congestion at times. On Tuesday at five o'clock a police officer was on the corner directing traffic. Motorists approaching the corner appeared hesitant as to when they should cross the inter- section. Although many slowed down and looked both ways, others went through without taking proper precautions, risking an accident. Without the lights to stop traffic periodically, pedestrians find it none too easy to cross the road in safety. 4 * also turned in a good game.

Inter- locked financial arrangements be- tween town and the county of On- tario are to be examined minutely if present plans are carried out. Feeling of Whitby town council is that this municipality is getting in- sufficient return at the present time for money paid in the county rate. They refer particularly to amounts paid on county roads, Before any move could be made toward secession from the county, legal authorities would have to be consulted. The action could be taken through introductior, of a private bill in the Ontario Legis- lature. Just what kind of passage this bill would receive should it be faced with the disapproval of the Municipal Board, it is not hard to imagine. At the present time there are seven "separated" towns in Ontario, one of whic is Trenton. None has | been separated in recent years. Over 15 years ago now, the town of Cobourg embarked upon lengthy | proceedings in an abortive effort to leave the United Counties of Nor- thumberland and Durham. Al-| though strenuous efforts were made | at that time, backed up by some of | the best lecal minds of the prov- ince, the effort was unsuccessful. In some quarters it is felt that Whitby might benefit financially | to a limited extent by secession at the present time. In the difficult times of depression the shoe might conceivably be on the other foot. Generally speaking, certain re- quirements as to assessment and population are necessary before separation is desirable.
