The past number of weeks boys and girls carrying their equip- ment, have been seen going to the softball diamond, where many hours of practice have been put in. Nights when regularly scheduled games have been played, crowds of people are on hand to cheer and support their favorites, and what amounts almost to a traffic jam in the school-yard and along the road results. Yes, the fans (and the players) have come into their own, and ball- games are the order of the evening Last night, a rousi game was played against Whitby, and the Harmony Junior Girls lost by a small margin to Whitby. Tonight, they meet Cedardale, and probably they will recuperate their loss of the previous game. Meanwhile, under Don Morris and his hard-working committee, two teams,--Bantam girls and Pee Wee girls and going through their paces, and will be giving the fans a brand of worthwhile sport. Come out and support these young people. HARMONY UNITED CHURCH Mrs. W. 8S. Barr is the newly ap- pointed Organist and Musical Di- rector at Harmony United Church.

Pope's Invitation May Test Red By PATRICK CROSSE VATICAN CITY (Reuters)--The Vatican may soon, by chance, test the sincerity of the 'peace wind' blowing from Moscow. With thousands of Roman Catho- lic priests in prison and the threat of even sharper persecution always hanging over them, the 60,000,000 Catholics behind the Iron Curtain should be among the first to feel the effects of any relaxation in the attitude of the Kremlin toward the West and Western thought. As far as is publicly known here, no effects have yet become evi- dent. But it is expected that the Papal secretariat of state, in ac- cordance with normal, routine pro- cedure, will shortly send an invita- tion to Rome to Poland's new cardinal, Archbishop Stefan Wyszy- snki of Warsaw. He was absent from the Brilliant week of ceremonies in Rome last Janudry at which the Pope created 24 new Cardinals, including the Polish archbishop. In announcing the creation of the new cardinals, the Pope disclosed that, a few days previously, the archbishop '"'informed us in a brief message that he would not reach this beloved city as he so ardently wished to do." That was before the "peace of- fensive" following Stalin's death and it was understood that the Polish government refused the new cardinal permission to leave the country. Even had permission been granted, it was doubted here whether the cardinal would have come to Rome lest he should not be allowed to return to Warsaw. This was understood also to be the chief reason for the absence the ceremonies of the new t Plans Yugoslav cardinal, Archbishop Aloysius Stepinac of Zagreb. Shortly after the Vatican had announced that he was to be made a cardinal, Premier Tito's govern- ment broke off diplomatic relations with the Holy See, climaxing a long period of Yugoslav denuncia- tion of the Vatican's "hostility." At the same time, it was made plain that the Yugoslav govern- men would put no obstacle in the way of the new cardinal going to Rome to receive the red hat. But it was made equally clear that if he went, he would not be allowed to return, The Pope soon is expected to hold consistories for the bestowal of the red hat on those of the new cardinals who did not receive it in January. In addition to the Polish and Yugoslav. cardinals, there are five others. They received all the in- signia of a cardinal's rank, except the red hat, from the chief of state of France, Spain and Portugal. NEW PRESIDENT HAMILTON (CP) -- Rev. Nor- man Rawson of Centenary United Church, Hamilton, was inaugurated today as president of the Hamilton conference of the United Church of Canada. TORONTO (CP) -- The Ontario Hockey Association said today that Lloyd Pollock of Windsor has been appointed to its executive. The association also announced plans for an Intermediate C. ser- jes for towns of less than 2,000 population. The Inter. B. series now will take in towns of between 2,000 and 4,000. Hunting Buys Viscounts Vickers Viscounts have been or- dered by Hunting Air Transport Limited of London, Eng., for a new network of air services radiat- ing from Newcastle in northwest England, The Photographic Survey Corp. of Toronto reports. Hunting Air Transport is a member of the Hunting Group of companies which includes Photographic Survey Corp., Kenting Aviation Ltd., Osh- awa, Ont. (surve operating); Field Aviation Ltd., of Oshawa and Calgary (aircraft servicing and equipment), and other Cana- dian companies. The Hunting purchase of a num- ber of Series 700 Viscounts was announced at inaug®ration of the first leg of Hunting's new passen- ger and freight services on May 15. Dakotas used on initial flights will be replaced by Vickers Vis- counts and Vikings when airport facilities at Newcastle have been improved to accommodate the newer aircraft. The first leg of the new Hunting service, linking Newcastle and London, will be expanded into an integrated network serving Britain from the Midlands to the north of Scotland, and later Scandinavia, Holland, Germany, Denmark, Lux- embourg, Switzerland and France. The company anticipates that low passenger fares and freight rates established for the Hunting net- work will help Britain develop air travel and freighting to the scale practised in the U.S., Percy Llew- ellyn Hunting, chairman of the board of the Hunting Group, said in Newcastle. "As far as I know, we are the first independent oper- ators in the world to order prop jet aircraft," he told officials as- sembled at the inauguration cere- mony. Present Hunting plans also en- visage expansion of the company's air services in Africa. Hunting Air Transport now operate Vickers, Vikings in passenger and freight service through the Mediterranean area and East Africa. Loses License For One Month A plea of guilty entered by How- ard Cook, 33 Colborne Street East, this morning to a charge of failing to remain at the scene of an ac- cident brought him a fine of $25 and costs or 10 days and cancella- tion of his driver's license for a month by Magistrate F. S. Ebbs. In a statement, read by Inspector Wilbert Dawn, Cook admitted leav- ing the scene of a midnight ac- cident on King Street East, near Ritson Road, in which he had side- swiped another car, which had also failed to remain. Accused admitted having a few bottles of beer prev- iously in the evening. Defence attormey Gilbert Mur N doch pointed out that damage to Cook's car amounted to only $15 Wind and that the complaint had been made by an independent witness, not anyone in the other car. 'Perhaps the other car had rea- sons for not stopping," remarked Crown Attorney Alex C. Hall, QC. Blocked ' Street Conductor Fined $50 and Costs Magistrate Frank S. Ebbg this morning imposed a fine of $50 and costs or one month on Arthur Herr- ing, a CNR freight train conductor of Belleville, charged with obstruc- ting the highway. A plea of guilty was entered by Herring's counsel, R. D. Hum- phreys, QC, who said that the eight empty freight cars left stand- ing across Bloor Street for more than two hours on Sunday after- noon was an 'honest mistake' on the part of the conductor, who had been ordered by the dispatcher to put them on Siding 3, and had erroneously left them on Siding 8, which swung across Bloor Street. PC Bruce McGregor testified that the cars were cross the street from 12.55 to 2.35 p.m. Five minutes is t maximum length of. time any railway cars are allow- ed to obstruct traffié: St. Laurent Praises ESU LONDON (CP)--Prime Minister St. Laurent said today the cold war could be ended if there were enough voluntary societies such as the English-Speaking Union. The prime minister, in an ad- dress prepared for a luncheon of the union, said such societies, ded- icated to creating better interna- tional understanding, help democ- racies understand one another's points of view. "If its (the union's) program of welcoming and assisting unofficial visitors, of establishing scholar- ships for foreign students, of ex- changing ideas through the inter- change of students, of teachers and of books, were emulated behind the Iron Curtain, then I am confident it would not be many years before the cold war became just an un- pleasant memory. Fight Costs Four Youths $40 Each ORILLIA -- Four youths were fined $25 and $15.40 costs each on a charge of taking part in an af- fray, and a similar charge against three others was dismissed in court here. The charges were laid after a brawl at Smith's Dance Hall on tacked a group of Oshawa young zen pecalice they disliked their Cc w . Ronald gh, Ronald Thornton and John 'David Cole pleaded guilty to the 'charge and Douglas McLean was convicted on the evidence presented after he had pleaded not Sulley. Charges t Kenneth Parr, George and Bruce Cotton were dis- After hearing evidence given by the four accused, Crown Attorney W. M. Thompson, QC, comment- ed: "I don't see how there could have been a fight going on at all as the police and proprietors said. None of you apparently saw any- one else doing any fighting." Magistrate K. A. Cameron said that the episode was the first of its kind in Orillia in some while and he took a serious view of it.

(CP)---British Columbia's cattlemen have com- pleted their annual meeting here --their deliberations all but lost in the Coronation hullabaioo. The range bosses were interested, of course, only in reviewing their financial affairs. But tenderfoot observers were struck by the con- trast between their quiet behavior and the Hollywood version of rootin' tootin' cowboys.

C. Livestock Producers' Co-operative Association.

K. de P. Chance, now vacationing in California. The drop was due mostly to a slide of between 30 and 40 per cent in cattle and livestock prices, the report said. This year's figures Shakes Tenderfoot, were giver as $3,933,300 as oot pared to $7,142,382 in 1852.

We should, however, b \ ware of paving the way for method of selling which would d prive us of the measure of contr over prices which we have alreac achieved." Concurrent with the livestoc meeting was a get-together of 1( members of the B, C. Beef Catt Growers' Association, which urge in a resolution that a commission: be appointed to investigate wh reductions in prices received t beef producers had not been fo lowed by a similar drop in price to consumers. Ship Runs mok In Port NEW ORLEANS (AP)--A 15,000- ton Japanese freighter ran wild on the Mississippi river yesterday, plowing into a wharf and buckling the roof of the Isbrandtsen Steam- ship Company warehouse. The Mayjharu Maru scraped the bow of another ship at the wharf and just missed the offices of the Isbrandtsen line. A section of the warehouse roof fell on the bow of the freighter. No one was injured. The ship was heading upstream to pick up cargo when the steering gear went out of control. Joseph Schultz, 53-year-old watchman for the Isbrandtsen line, sald he watched the boat as it manoeuvred helplessly .a few hund- red feet off the dock.
