St, Andrew's made Peterboro's best look like a team in a different class altogether in both the game last night and that on Saturday, and yet they didn't seem to be extending them- selves in the least. One thing was evident, however, and that was that the Saints have found their batting eye, on the bases when they were on their hitting sprees, In a bulletin received last night from "Dick" Branton, Secretary of the Oshawa and District Softball Association, the umpires and first play-off date for the series between Williams Piano and Chevrolet for the Murray Miller Cup and the right to represent Oshawa in the O.A.8.A, play downs were made August 18, which is tomorrow, was the date set and the game is to be played at Alexandra Park beginning at 6.30 The umpires will be H, Hester at the Jos, A.

The splendid pitching of Jess Doyle in the first and Vic Sorrell in the wind-up game, together with the gilt-edged fielding and effective bat- ting behind them was responsible for the Jersey City shortage in tallies. Doyle showed fine derensive work in the curtain-raiser to hold the locals sufe after being touched up for ten hits, while Leon Williams, whe oppos- ed him held the Leafs to eight, from which they managed to squeeze out a brace of three runs. Burke Steals Home It was Toronto's lucky bunching in the fourth that paved the way for the success that followed. Two hits were stuck in this, the only inning in which more than one hit was allowed, and it was due to Merwin Jacobson, who 'has appeared at his best in this trip 'here, that the stage was set. He hit hard to centre for two bases, and took third when Harrington sacrificed. Burke was rewarded with a free trip, Alex- and 'r then tore off the drive that scor- ed Jacobson to balance the run regis- tered hy the Skceters 'in the third.

Lighthourne's Vies advanced with a win over W, Scott's Parkdale rink.
