This was the second straigbt win for Mikc's Place, and they necd anly onc more victory i the next three gamnes ta annex the softjall champianship. After a scoreless first inniiig, Mike'. men teed off on "Ace" Richards' pitches for a grand total Of six runs i the second inning which featured a parade of twelve batters ta thc plate for the BEl- liard Kings. Once they succeeded( in getting this ane bad inning out I of their systeins, Goodycarîs set- . tled down ta play a mucb steadier and better brand of baîl.

Hooper led off for Goodycars in thc last inning, promptly sing- Jing inta left and went ta second on a passed bail. Richards went out - pitcher ta first. Woods hit safely ta third. Then came a lune- drive biomer by Ted Bagnell ta tic Uic score. The next two batters wcnt out on grounders ta Uic pitchcr's box. ",Porky" Osborne smashed a hard line-drive at Calwcil which was toc, hot for Uic portly second- sacker ta bandlc, then stole sec- ond.

Mike's Place showed their sup- eriarity i bath batting and field- ing. For Uic garagemen, a total of 35 batters faccd "Ace" Rich- ards, while 31 faccd Dave Os- borne. The strange ground forced bath tcamis ta make frequent mental errors, but an Uic wholc Uic game was quite well played, as weil as being a thriller. Most noticcable feature was that neither pitcher fanncd a batter. Mike's Place - Little, If; Mc- Knight, rf; Piper, 3rd; Hallnian and Werry, lst; C. Osborne, ss; Wilson, c; D.

"It gives me great Peareo behaif of the Town League o prsn you with this cup,"' said Prsdnt Sid. Little ta "'Mike" Osborne ýdirect1y after the end of the third and last gaine of the Town League play-offs. This l'lit- tie"' speech was the signal for the wildest scenes of jubilation in- aginable (for Mike's men). Mike's Place did the impossible. Any teamn that can, beat an outfit like Goodyears,- three gaines inia row, certamnly deserves ail the credit in the world. Their wins wcre no fluke either. They wcnt i 'there like the great fighters they are and out-played a teain that had been beaten only once during the regular schedule. One very good reason for the success of Mike's Place *4as that thcy were every bit a unit - each and every man fighting for the championship, flot merely playing for mndividual glary. If a player made a mistake, well it was just forgotten or else it was a signal for ail to bear down a littie hard- er. They are worthy champs. Thcy hit an opportune wmnning streak right t the end of the schedgle - and kept- Up that fftulty Ui'Jwc-. tory-snatching until they hal the trophy safcly ensconed on the counter of a weil-known gas sta- tion situated in the western part of our town. Mike Osbornececrtainly pulled a clever bit of strategy when lic mnade a wholesale shift i his bat- ting lne-upi the last gaine. The manager of the Billard Kings movcd Jack Gay frain ciglith to second place i the batting order, and Dave Osborne from seventh to f ifth place. The resuit? Well, Gay scored two runs,, belng knocked home twice by Keni Wer- 1ry, whilc Dave brought» Werry 'home three tîmes with three bits. It looks as though Mike used the .score-book to out-smart the op- ;position that time. Timeliest bit of head-work goes ta Dave Osborne. In the lait gaine .Dave was at bat with two ont and Ken Wcrry on third. Dave had decided to bunt, but the pitch was 1too high. Sensing that Dave was going to bunt, the Goodyear third baseman hadl moved in ta niake the play. But cagey Dave delayed his swing slightly and bit a short safety over the third-sackcr's head, scorig Werry on the play. One place where the winners 1shone particularly was in their base running. Where Goodycars ,would only get a single, the Klngs would get a double by dint of .a speed and smartness i travers- ing the sacks. Ken Werry, Dave Osborne and "Porky"l Osborne were outstanding in this depart- ment. Evidence of the superiarity of 1Mike's Place can be seen by a ,glance at the box score. Ini the three gaines played the Billard Kinga made 24 runs, 31 hits, and 8 errors. While Goodyears made 15 runs, 26 bits, and 8 errors. AI Osborne was the only Ç<ood. year player ta keep up the pro- 1f îc hitting -that had synibollzed the mighty Rubbermcn ail during the season. Boastig a tearn bat- tmng average of nearly .400j they were about 50 points higher-than Mike's Place. Then how is it that they were not able ta bit as wdll as their opponents i the -play- offs? The answer i. flot hard ta get. Goodyears neyer saw- good pitching until they encountered Dave Osborne in the finals.

OutUln.Measure For Un.mploymlent Insurance Plan Fo& better or warse, uncmplay- me~nt insurance bas naw been estabished in Canada. Wlat i- terests people most now arc Uic ternis of thc act. Thc act itaelf la long and camplicated, accupying Uiirty-five printcd Pages. The Act provides for Uic sctting iup of a Commission ta adniinistcr Uncmployinent Insurance thro'- out Canada for Uic establishment of an Emplayment Service and for rclated purpoe.OeCm missioner lata e ppainted aftcr consultation with organizations repraientative of workcrs and anc aftcr consultation with organiza- tions representative of emplaYers. Thc Chief Commissioner is ta hold office for ten years and cacl of Uic other Cominssioners for five ycars. Thc benefits of thc scbeme ap- ply ta ail persans cmployed under acontract of service or appren- ticesbîp with a number Of excep- tions wbich include agriculture, fislhing, lumbering in woads, ihuntixig, transportation by water or air, domestic service, nursing, teaching, military or naval ser- vice, and police wark and Uic gav- emninent or municipal service. Young persans under 16 years of age and persans carning less than 90e in a full day, cannaI draw benefits but may accumnulate benefit rights at no cout ta them- selves. The Bill pravides for Uic inclusion of some of Uic cxcepted eniplayments under Uic Bill on Uic recammnendatian af a national 1Advisory Cornmittee ta be set up under Uic Act. An Unemploynicnt Insurance Fund, with Uic Bank of Canada as fiscal agent, is ta be created. Thc contributions by emplayers and workmen would bring ap- proximatcly equal totals over Uic country. Parliament adds a grant of one-fifth of Uic aggregatc con- tributions made by employcd per- sons and emplayers, and also as- sumes Uic cost of administration, wbich moncys are ta be provided througl annual votes of Parlia- ment. Benefits arc paid as of right on fulfilment of four statu- tory conditions:- -1. The payment of flot las [than 30 weckly - or 180 daily - contributions within two years, wbilc in lnsured cmployment. 2. Praper presentation. of Uic laim, and proaf of unemploy- ment. 3.

Thc amaunt of daily or weekly benefit ia 34 turnes Uic average daily or weekly work- man's contribution for insured persans without dependenta, and 40 times the average contribution for married persans mainly or wholly maintalning anc or mare dependents. No benefit is payable durlng tie first nine days of unemploy- ment i a benefit year. After that a worker inay draw ane paynient for cvcry five contributions made i thcpreviaus ycars, les. anc payment for every three benefit payments received in thc previaus three years. There are sevczal exceptions for holidays, etc. Thus an cmployee who has paid for 1,200 days i five ycar-s and re- celved benefits for 40 days in thc previaus threc years, would be paid unemployment insurance if out of employment for 200 days. Paynients- by employers begin at 27 cents a wcek aon bebalf of persans receiving 1cms than 90 cents a day or under 16 years of age. They pay nothing. Em- playee earning from $5.40 ta $7.50 a wcck pay 12 cents a week into -the fund, while thc employer pays 21 cents. Employees earn- mng froin $7.50 ta $15 a weck pay froin 15 cents ta 21 cents wbile Uic -employer pays 021 cents on their behaif.
