THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MAY 13, 1931 AL LAWN BOWLING AND TENNIS CLUBS OPEN SEASON ON SAT Lg Oshawa Lawn Bowlers Get Under Way on Sat. Unofficial Opening Will Be 'Held on Saturday After "noon--Club House Pro- vided for Ladies--Greens Are in Excellent Shape -- iasm Is High $ he bowling season will be un- cially opéned at the greens of Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club Saturday afternoon next, wea- permitting. All members as 11 as those who have any inter- whatever in the game are ask- to be on hand at that time, as ® good afternoon's fun is in store the enthusiasts of this summer me. The afternoon will be t in the playing of friendly es and is being looked forward je as the greens look to be in the t of condition for this time of year. he club has taken a well ad- step this year in providing b house accommodation for the y members of the club. Last year this section of the club made most auspicious start and this year their interest in the game is being taken notice of by the erection of a new clubhouse for their exclusive use. This building has been erected adjoining the men's club house and immediate- ly to the west of it. The work of building has been completed and = a smart coat of paint was applied this week. The fact that the wo- ~ men now have a clubhouse of their own should act as a stimulant to the interest that taken in bowling. The men's quarters have been thoroughly renovated and are ready for the season. In a city the size of Oshawa and with green facilities that the bowling club now ~ have, there is no reason why there should not be a larger membership than is the case at present. With the facilities that the club now ive they are able to take care cof most three times the number of members they now have. _ Green in Great Shape In conversation with members of the Club The Times learned that the greens were never in better condition. - This spring they were . given a coat of Vigoro and the 'with of grass has been most ¢n- souraging. With the rains of the last week there is a thick carpet of grass such as the club has not had _ for some time. With this improve- ment in the greens, which have tle reputation of being among the best in the province, the elub is ure of being able to supply greens for tournaments that compare fa- vorably with the best.

The Wings presented effective pitching by Herman Bell and Ira Smith, the latter hurling the first shutout of the season here as he limited the Keys to two bingles. Two three-run rallies, one in each game, blasted the otherwise strong work of pitchers John Welch and Nelson Green. SKEETERS BLANKED Buffalo, N.Y., May 13.--Allow- ing only one of his Jersey City ri- vals to reach third base in nine in- nings Johnny Michaels, young Buf- falo left-hander, easily scored a shut-out victory over the visitors here yesterday afternoon 7 to 0. Michaels allowed only six bin- gles, two of them dotting the final inning, and did not issue a single base on balls. The victory gave the Bisons three out of four on the series, Tucker and Hughes gave the Bisons a flying start by socking home runs with the bases unpopu- lated in the first inning.

One of the nurses in its employ contracted cerebro-spinal meningitis and the chairman of the board pointed out that the matter was not their concern #lone but affected the staffs of isolation hospitals all over the country. The board, therefore, sent to the Min- ister of Health a proposed amend- ment to the relevant section of the Workmen's Compensation Act which, as in Ontario, applies only to specified industrial occupations. In both countries also the Act includes certain "industrial dis- eases" such as stone workers' phthisis, metal poisoning, etc. Un- der the proposed amendment a nurse who contracted fever, for ex- ample, as the result of employ- ment in a hospital would be en- titled to the same compensation as the industrial worker suffering from a scheduled disease.' The argument for the amend- ment is plausible, but the Nurses' Mirror is not enthusiastic over it. "We doubt very much," says this nurses' magazine, 'whether the profession would at present give the amendment its unqualified support." Cases of the kind are happily rare, and jt thinks that 80 long as nurses feel that emer- gent cases will receive generous treatment they will not be over- anxious to multiply their reme- dies. It adds, however, that should such occurrences become frequent the need for altering the law would become imperative. "But, mother," said Phyllis, "why shouldn't I get married? Girls of my age get married every day." "Oh, surely not," said her mo- ther. "Not every day--not even if they're cinema actresses."

LARRY GAINS WINS FROM BELGIAN CHAMP. Leicester, May 13.--Larry Gains, Canadian heavyweight champion, and one of the world's outstanding colored boxers, administers a sev- ere thrashing to Van Gooue, Bel- gian heavyweight champion, in the main event of an open-air show here yesterday. The bout was stop- ped in the fourth round with Goole hanging on. Early in the bout Larry caught his opponent with a swing- ing left hook and opened a nasty cut over the Belgian's left eye. From the bell it was evident Goole was not in the same class with the panther like Canadiam boy, who won going away. Van attempted a comeback after the first round but never had a chance, Gains will now meet Phil Scott for the British heavyweight title, and on yesterday's showing should give Phil a great run for the money. ROUGH TRACK CAUSES INJURY TO WILLIAMS Vancouver, B.C, May 13--Injury to the Olympic sprint king, Perey Wil- liams, was caused by training on rugh tracks, it was stated yesterday following examination by x-ray photos. An old knee injury was ag- gravated by the rough-track-training. The injury consists of a chipped bone which affects the nerves in the knee joint and causes almost con- stant pain. Aside from the pain Percy's running is not interfered with and, providing he receives plenty of care, he should be as fast as ever this year. ju i + BROTHER OF RANGERS IS PURCHASED BY BOSTON Boston, May 13--The purchase of Alexander "Bud" Cook, left winger 'on the Providence Canadian « Amer- ican League Hockey Club, was an- nounced by President Charles F.

HUXLEY'S PLAY HAD CRITICS WORRIED Aldous Huxley's first play, "The World of Light", which was pre- sented for a brief series of matin- ees, had the critics in a corner. The gayer ones simply said bosh and dashed on, but the serious lads devoted no little space to their head-rubbings. Described as a spiritualist play, it is not, strictly speaking. It is a play in which a gentle father, growing old and feeling he must believe in something, turns to tinkering with spiritualism, His son, off on a journey, disappears and is believed dead. Just about the time his father is hailed as a spiritualistic expert the son bobs up again. The father is about to make a full and public confes- sion, because his belief has been sincere. To spare him this, the son moves off again, for good this time. There are too, a girl in love with a spirit, a scoffing professor and an amusing sketch of a pub- lisher, : What Mr, Huxley does it to state the case for each side, in his brogh tand salty fashion, handing down no decisions, The acting is polished; indeed, the play would far badly in unskilled hands. "SCOTTY" BOWMAN ON WAY TO JOIN FREDERICTON TEAM Fredericton, N ,B,May 13-G. E.

C.t | --THE BIG SIX= | | The averages took another drop for baseball's big six batters ves- terday, although the weather stop- ped most of them. Al Simmons did the best work, clouting his fifth homer of the year and a single in five times to bat, but he lost two points, dropping to .420., Dale Al- exander missed out three times and his mark fell to .404. Red Worth- ington skidded clear away from the leaders, giving way to Freddy Lind-* strom of the Giants, while Wally Roettger yielded first place in the National League to the idle Rog- ers Hornsby as he hit only cence in nine times up.

But they couldn't get them, al- though they collected plenty at other times. Consequently, the Or- ioles had no, difficulty annexing the final game of the series by 5 to 2, which 'gave them the edge on the three games played by 2 to 1. The Leafs colleéted 13 singlebase drives off Beryl Richmond, Oriole southpaw, and forced him to the showers in the ninth with the bases filled and two out. Monte Weaver then strolled to the hilltop and struck out Ken Strong to end the game. It was the second time that 1ad struck out with runners waiting, although he made two hits on other occasions and drove in the Leafs' first run. hmond was highly effective in pinches, and he had to be.
