WHITBY NEWS Industrials Defeat Larry BA's By 5 To 4 3 Two Toronto people had a mir- aculous escape from serious in- jury when their car went out of control on Highway 401, east of Whitby yesterday afternoon. The car skidded and rolled inio the centre boulevard and stopped, wheels uppermost. A.

The pianist was pounding out a and bass rhythm; the guitarist | fiddle player strummed furiously; the drummer and banjo artist as- saulted their instruments. Leaning against the piano and moaning in throaty tones was Peggy, dressed plainly in a yellow smock with tightly combed platinum hair. After a half-hour of this she called a halt for sandwiches and jced tea and collapsed in a chair.

Both teams used two pitchers, Dave Rennicks started for Toronto and was taken out of the game in the sixth inning in favor of a pinch hitter. Howie Adams came into pitch in the seventh and held the BA's while his team tied up the score and finally sent in the winn- ing run, thus, giving Adams cre- dit - for the win. Crawford started on the mound for the locals but was also taken out of the game in favor of a pinch hitter. Harrison came in in relief and was charged with the Whitby loss.

Both teams did little in the first inning as the pitchers seemed to have everything under control. In the second inning the story was different, at least for the BA's as they took a three to nothing lead. Hanna started the rally with a single and the next batter McAr- thur also hit a single. After one man was away Frank Varga came to the plate and hit out his second home run of the play offs, his first one was against Oakville. The next two batters went down to end the BA's rally. No more scoring was done by either team until the fourth inning when the Industrials pushed two runs across the plate and get right back into the ball game.

It also criticized the board for refusing the coitage owner a hearing. Evidence was given to the court Monday that tenants of cottages owned by George Knapman were forcibly removed on the recom. mendation of the board's health officer, Dr. M.S, Heddle. Dr. Heddle reported that seven : of the cabins contained two rooms each, 'in a filthy state," holding 29 children and 12 adults. Mr, Jus- tice G. A. Gale said the board must give an applicant a chance to an- swer reports of the board's offi- cers. The court also dismissed an ap- plication by the board to apeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. Grenade Explodes During Embrace SOUTHAMPTON, England (Reut- ers)--A lovelorn young painter whose sweetheart told him she was no longer interested in him died of a grenade explosion while embrac- ing her, a coroner's jury heard Tuesday. The girl was seriously injured in the blast. The jury, which returned an open verdict in the death of Leslie Horn, had heard 21-year-old Ann Andrews testify that Horn told her after being jilted, 'If you want to break | it off, T will break it off good and proper." She said that he returned later and approached her wordlessly but in an affectionate manner, while keeping one hand in his pocket. Another witness said Horn and Miss Andrews were in '"'a kind of embrace" when an explosion shattered the air. The jury found there was insuffi- cient evidence to determine whe- ther the explosion was deliberate or accidental.

NOT ENOUGH The United States preacher with world-wide popularity sad that church-going, Bible-reading and the Urged To Capture Canadian Market LONDON (CP)--A. G. Bottom- ley, former British secretary for overseas trade, Tuesday night strongly urged 'his countrymen to go all out for the Canadian market. '"We can do more than we are doing," said Bottomley, just back from a visit to Canada. "Tn time we can reap rich rewards." The Socialist ex-msinister, speak- ing in a BBC broadcast, conceded that the Canadian market is a tough nut to crack, The Americans have many advantages and there are some 'baffling" regulations. But... "Once we penetrate the market, it will be a long-ternv, stable one. Capturing it will go a long way towards easing our trade difficul- ties."

One day a year ago, people on the busy boats that ply the wide Congo river between Brazaville vand Leopoldville discovered the water hyacinth had made its ap- pearance. Peple put the lovely flower inte ponds, natives paddled out into the river and cut them for sale on the market. SHIPPING MENACE What starled as an ornament has grown into a menace to ship- ping and fishing over a wide acea of the Congo basin. Ships are held up by giant floating islands, har- bors and bays are glogged by flowery carpet, fishing grounds are blanketed. Last month a floating island covering 120 acres was blowa by a Strong wind into Bikoro bay on Lake umba (Belgian Congo) while the villagers of the area were fishing. ; Sccres of pis (native boats) were crushed and sank, others were pushed against the beach. Along the whole bay (fishing became impossible. The {Congo public works department | hastily threw a giant net around ithe water hyacinths, whila lect smaller them. - The pest is spreading quickly.

The Shaw area is comprised of the district between Bowmanville and Newcestle and because of its vast size the area tended to divide socially with the eastern half going io Newcastle and the western half to Bowmanville. As a means of bringing these two groups together the Home and School club was first formed 22 years ago. Anyone in the Shaw area al- lowed to take part in the club meetings and this includes the school children and those who have no children attending the school. Their projects for the year are to do general landscaping, plant evergreens, equip the school and to carry out general interior . | improv The country is stable economically and politically and the population is growing at a faster rate even than in Asia. Informal Talks On Red Relations HONG KONG (Reuters)--Cana- dian r ition of Cc i ability to pr the shiboleths are not enough: "Until your soul has been- bent to the will of God you cannot claim to be a Christian in the truest sense.' Sins and immorality bring pleas- ures but they are short-lived, the evangelist said. "Then it turns to gravel in your mouth, your soul shrivels and you are on the broad road that leads to hell."

BALK SCORES RUN The BA's added what proved to be their last run of the game in the sixth inning when they got the bases loaded and the Toronto pit- cher balked sending in the r » The next two batters struck out wo leave two Whitby players stranded on base. Industrials tied up the game in their half of the seventh inning and except for some fine pitching by Harrison after the bas- es were loaded they could have easily taken the lead. The first two men to come to the plate hit singles, followed by two walks which put one run in and left the bases loaded with nobody out.. Be- fore the side was retired, one more run the tying one, crossed the plate. Everyone was prepared for ex- tra innings as both pitchers were throwing fine ball. With two out in the Industrial half of the ninth inning Whitby committed an error and then the next batter hit a double which drove in the break- ing and winning run. It was a tough one for the locals to lose as they lead nearly all the way. The fourth game of the series will be played tonight at the Osh- awa stadium and the fifth tomor- row night in Earlscourt Park in Toronto. LINE-UPS Industrials -- Akers 1st, R.

Suggests New Lease For Varying Conditions EDMONTON (CP)--A lease that | would vary business rentals in| boom or bust times and protect | both tenant and property owner was advocated Tuesday at the Canadian Real Estate Boards an- nual convention.

Under this lease, the tenant pays a percentage on the gross value of business conducted at the rented property. If business increases he ays more, but if it slumps he pays less.
