On visits to homes, said Mr. Mitchell, the lack of any spiri- tual faith was appalling. Proba- tions could be helped by efforts of the Church working through their homes. Business executives, owners of businesses and persons in au- thority were asked to aid and understand the problems of the probationer. "I feel certain," said the ex- RAF member, "that if the busi- ness world would give a little more understanding to-the pro- bationer's problem of employ- ment, the probationer would get the feeling that society was tak- ing an interest in him."

These condi- tions include curfew, reporting at a specified time, paying restitution and staying away from undesirable characters. The character of the proba- tioner is also assessed by the probation officer. Often, the probationer comes from a poor home environment where there has been no proper parental con- trol. A broken home also crops up in the history of some proba- tioners, he said. During the many talks with the probationer, the officer at- tempts to find a common ground of interest.

He set the figure at 30 per cent. A probation officer's motto is "to advise, to help and to be- friend," he said.

Because of this heavy case load, other facets of the work such as marriage counselling, do! not receive the proper amount of time, he said. Marriage and family counsel- ling is heaviest of Monday after a weekend. Since this type of work has increased enormously over the last few years, Mr. Mitchell said he would like to see the work taken over by a Civic Family Council connected with the Welfare Department. Describing his impression of the probationary work, Mr. Mitchell termed it "very illum- inating, but frustrating. It is a vocation that has a humanitar- |ian purpose."

BROCK Evening Shows ot 6:55 & 9:20 WHITBY Feature Starts ot 6:55 & 9:30 Best Actor of the Year Adult Entertainmeni ' 5 WHITBY SPORTS WHITBY PERSONALS | PARADE By GERRY BLAIR Whitby Abner's Esso host Pickering Merchants tonight (wednesday) at the Town Park in their third and deciding game of the best-of-three quarter-finals of South Ontario County Softball league play-offs. Game time is 8:15 p.m. Whitby battled back to square the set at 1-1 with a 5-1 decision right in Pickering on Friday night. Bill Giddings the sling- shot member of the Abner's pitching staff limited the Merchants to eight scattered singles, while striking out 12. He had much better control than on Wednes- day night in Whitby, when Pickering claimed an 11-9 win from Abners. The winner of this series tangles with either Mount Zion or Brooklin in the semi- finals. The third game of the Mount Zion-Brooklin best-of-three set goes also tomorrow night in Brook- lin. The next series could possibly get underway this week-end. Whitby hope to have Wally Sam- anski on the mound for their sudden-death affair tomorrow evening against Pickering, Wally strained #2 muscle in his back two weeks ago, and has been troubled by it since. He tried twice to overcome the handicap, once in an exhibition tilt against Oshawa Heffering's Imperials, and in the first play-off game against the Merchants. Both times he had to retire because of the pain when he completed his follow- through, OASA softball play-offs are just around the corner and are scheduled to start in this vicinity much sooner than expected. Whitby open their initial series with Heffering's of the Oshawa, City and District softball league next Wednesday night, August 16, at the Whitby Town Park, with the second game at Oshawa's Alexandra Park on Saturday, Aug- ust 19. Both games are floodlight affairs with start- ing time called for 8:15 p.m. Despite the one-sided exhibition victory by Heffering's over Abner's a few days back, this series could go the limit. Once again, Whitby's chance hinges on the seriousness of Saman- ski"s back injury. MacLean's Esso Fuels, also mem- bers of the Oshawa Association, have drawn Brooklin Stevenson's Motors for their first round opposition. The OASA just recently stepped in and ordered Brook- lin to compete in Intermediate "A" competition instead of "C" as originally planned. Stevenson's have sign- ed Murray Woods from Lindsay to bolster their pitch- ing staff, which is the basic reason behind the move by the Ontario softball body. Woods was a member of the Port Perry squad last season, and is rated one of the top hurlers in this area. Cec Hall a veteran of baseball and softball in Brooklin and Oshawa has lined up with Stevenson's to give them some added hitting and fielding strength. It.appears that Brooklin will be a strong contender with these recent acquisi- tions. The MacLean's-Brooklin series will start next weekend. TOWN AND COUNTRY . .. Wren Blair, man- ager-coach of the Kingston Frontenacs is providing the Kingston hockey fans with three extra-special exhibition attractions prior to the opening of the Eastern Professional Hockey League's 1961-62 sea- son. Three NHL clubs, Chicago, New York and Bos- ton are coming to Kingston's Community Centre in September. The Frontenacs are also scheduled to meet the Quebec Aces of the American Hockey League in Quebec, along with the special arranged contest in Whitby against the Rochester Americans on September 27. Oshawa General fans will have the opportunity on that night of seeing Dick Gamble in action with the Americans, who was recently traded from Buffalo . : » . The Boston Bruins are supplying the new entry from San Francisco into the Western Hockey League with eight players, mostly from the Winnipeg War- riors who have ceased operations for the coming year. Four or five Boston owned players will be placed in Portland. Providence Reds of the American League have first grabs at the top minor-pro Bruin players this year because of their dismal showing last season. This may mean, that one or two top performers from last season's Kingston club will end up in Providence. The limit of players supplied to Providence is eight, with the Reds having the option of buying them. In other words, none of the eight supplied to Provi- dence are destined for a NHL future with Boston. Kingston Frontenacs are the only club in the Bruins minor-pro chain to employ the younger prospects slated for possible NHL duty with Boston. Kingston may have as many as five rookies in their starting roster this season, with some of them coming from Niagara Falls Flyers of the OHA Junior circuit, plus one or two ovar-age juniors from Western Canada. . . |year.

Nickel, Silver Production Up OTTAWA (CP) -- Nickel and silver production increased in May compared with the same month in 1960 but copper, lead and zinc output in Canada was down, the Dominion Bureau of. Statistics said today. May production totals with corresponding 1960 figure brack- eted: nickel 19,710 tons (17,207); silver 2,472,876 fine ounces (2,- 354,657); copper 36,851 tons (37, 561); lead 14,812 tons (16,558); zinc 31,651 tons (33,362).

DEWEY BOGOTA, Colombia w)ap)-- Every morning at dawn, seven disheveled children, their hair matted, their clothes in tatters, crawl from a tiny makeshift shack, climb over a high brick wall and drop into a downtown Bogota street to begin a new day of begging and pilfering. They are among perhaps 600 boys and girls from eight to 16 years old who roam the city.

A survey showed 36 per cent driven from their homes by par- ents' cruelty. Another 27 per cent were either thrown out of their home, abandoned or left homeless by their parents' death. Some, after losing money given them to buy food, feared to return home. A few are vaga- bonds by choice. FUNDS LIMITED Bogota has both private and public orphanages. However, the public institutions are already jammed and funds for their up- keep are limited. Then, too, there are legal problems of de- partmental jurisdiction stem- ming from the way the coun try's social welfare laws are made up. There are also private institu- tions such as the children's shel- ter operated by Rev. Luis Al- berto Castillo. Father Castillo, who has 690 children in his shelter, says most of the gam- ines would rather be free and starving than submit to the rou- tine of institutional life. The gamines make their way as best they can. Half-naked and shivering in the night rain, they beg outside a theatre in the certain know- ledge their abject appearance will move the moviegoer. At night they are liable to turn up at the back door of an apart- ment, pleading for the dinner scraps, old clothing, or newspa- pers to wrap around themselves while they sleep huddled in door- ways in Bogota's 40-degree tem- peratures.
