SDEFEA THE OSHAWA DAILY T T IMES, MUNDAY, MAY 14, 192 TON2-0-MIMICO 2, OSH AWACITY 0 Motors Win National League Fixture Scoring Two Goals in Second Halt Hold Opponents \ With Wind{hatistied, an tield them at « draw Against Them to a 1.1 Score in First Half and Register Twice in the Last Half to Win from Hamil ton3 tol General Motors eleven, local rep- resentatives in the National Soccer League maintained its place with the leaders Saturday afternoon by defeating Hamilton 3 to 1 at Alex. andra Park, A high wind prevailed making accurate playing impos- sible, The Motors were at a decided disadvantage in the first but held their Amibitious City opponents to a 1-1 score. However in the second halt with the wind favoring them they counted twice while holding the visitors scoreless, The game was timed for 3 but did not start until 4.15, A heavy wind was blowing across the pitch at starting time. When the starting whistle blew, Hamilton had only eight men fielded but G, M, C, did not try to take advantage of this, simply defending until the other men appeared, First Half Sethrang kicked off against a strong wind, and Motors carried play into the defending goal, but did not use any pressure, as the Hamilton boys were still 3 men short, Only 6 minutes of the game had gone when Hamilton were at full strength with a heavy wind in their favor, but G.M.,C, were first to score, A nice bit of play by Lob- ban and McKean carried the ball into «the Hamilton area, McKean crossed a perfect ball and Sethrang practicalyl carried ball and goal- keeper into tha net, The wind was ugly at this time and good football was out of the question, although Motors showed some nice touches,' Play was from end to end now, and the G.M.C, defence are to be complimented on the way they kept the Hamilton boys out, Hamilton knew if they wanted to win, it had to be done while they had the wind, and the centre half took a chance, and scored, the ball deflecting off Smith into the net, Motors were Lawn Grass Seed One of our Specialties Hogg & Lytle LIMITED 54 Church St, Phone 203 watil half time. Second Half Motors naw had the wind and im. mediately carried play into the op posing area, and only the solid defensive play of' Hamilton kept Sethrang from counting, All the play was at the Hamilton end now, and it was evident that it was only a matter of minutes be fore G,M.C, would count, ; Hurst was the marksman, and with a raking shot, gave the Ham~ ilton goalle no chance, The wind was still very strong and only once the ball was carried past centre, Smith the G.M.C, goalie, looked a lonely figure at the far end, and was wearing his coat to keep warm, The fans were all crowded at the Hamilton end, and were kept on edge all the time, Corners were numerous, but the Corinthians goalie was playing a wonderful game, It looked as if the game would stand 2-1 but the ever watchful Sethrang pounced on & ball, went right through and care ried goalie and ball into the net, This finished the scoring and 2 minutes after the final whistle blew. + Summing Up The game on Saturday was spoil- ed with the heavy wind, but both teams did their best to play to the condition, Some good football was shown by both teams, the Hamil. ton goalie, taking the ribbon, Mot- ors settled down to a nice under- standing game and won easily, Hamilton® seemed to have heard about Sethrang before, and he was never lonely, Skippen, Ramage and his lefty henchman Hurst and Cole, never allowed any soft stuff, while Smith and Connors willingly back- ed them up. Both wings played nice football, but owing to the heavy wind, accurate shooting was impossible, G. M, C. look as if they are in for a great year, Thelr showing from the start of the season puts them in championship class, HORNSBY AND BELL STAR AGAINST OLD TEAM-MATES St." Louis, May 13--Richhourg, Braves' right fielder, crashed out a homer and a double to score four of the runs which defeated the Cardin- als 6 to 5 here today, Hornshy's nine in so doing halted the six-game winning streak of the Red Birds, Hornsby and Bell, former Card performers, assisted in the defeat, the one time St. Louis pilot connecting with a pair of singles and a double, while the Boston third baseman col- lected two singles. Genewich, except for a bad fifth inning, held the Cardinals at his mercy. Four of the seven hits chalk- ed up against him were unearned.

NATIONAL {Robins 2 run in the fourth dnd a LEAFS ARE DEFEATED INDOUBLE BILL AT JERSEY CITY SUNDAY Jersey City, NJ. May 12-Jersey City defeated Toronto Maple Leais in both ends of today's double-header here, the score in the first game be- ing 2 to 3, and in the second, 6 to 4 he double win gave the Black Cats five of the six games played with tke league leaders in the past four days, and six in eight between the two teams this season, all of which is very encouraging to Mana- er Gilhooley, Otis' Lawry, Jimmy Wash and Mickey Devine, former Leafs. Hard, consistent stick work was responsible for the Cats' double suc- cess today. They walloped the curves of Clarence Fisher and Frank Riel in the initial scramble for an even dozen safeties, They continued their slugging in the six rounds of action in the nightcap bill, putting together fourteen safeties and pulling the game out of the fire just when the eafs appeared to have it safely stored in their bat bag. 's Use Four Pitchers Toronto used four of their strong- est twirlers, Fisher and Riel in the first game, and Doyle and Prudhom- me in the wind-up, but they were un- able to check the Skeeters' heavy assault, THe lack of control on the part of the Toronto pitchers, together with costly . fielding breaks, contributed liberally to the Jersey's run column. Herb, Thormahlen, the locals' veteran southpaw, on the block in the opener, showed the best brand oi pitching that has featured his work thus far, and earned him his first victory of the season, He was a bit wild, issuing five asses, but after the opening rounds e was invincible, Toronto found him for only two safe drives in the six final rounds, the visitors' quote for the game being five hits. For the concluding mix-up John- son, another left-hander, confronted the Leafs, and while they got $0 him for ten hits he was effective except in the three frames the visitors' runs were tabulated, Play Game Under Protest Some excitement was caused soon after the start of the second half of the twin bill when it was found that the Leafs had made a change in their batting order, Sccond-haseman Bur- ke having been moved up to the lace regularly listed to Catcher ensa, Cote following Burke in the order, with Rensa hitting cighth in place of sixth, The protest was made in the cec- ond inning, Alexander had started hy reaching the half-way station when Martin made g wild throw on his grounder, Cote singled after Burke had flied out, scoring Alexander, Lid City insisted Cote he declar- ed out, and his hit, which scored Alexander, not he allowed, hut the kick did not prevail, and Manager Gilhooley informed Umpire Carroll the game would be played under pro- test, Inasmuch as the Skeeters finally won out there will be no meed to press the claim further. The trouble was the result of Captain Billy Webhh giving out one line-up and Bill O'Hara working on one of his own make-up.

Ps ROBINS DEFEAT PIRATES TO BREAK LOSING STREAK _ Brooklyn, May 13--Brooklyn broke its losing streak at home today by cmerging triumphant against the champion Pirates by a score of 8 to 5. Burleigh Grimes went the route in 2 wild ball game, although allowing eleven hits and giving six bases on balls. A bad throw by Gooch gave the balk by Grimes led to a three-run Brooklyn rally in the fifth.

Conditions were against the Motors in the first half but they were successful in holding their opponents to a 1-1 score and mn the second session counted twice at the same time holding the visitors scoreless. Ohawa City cleven again met defeat Saturday, this time at the hands of Mimico Beach, the score being 2 to 0. The impression prevails in Toronto that the Oshawa representatives in the Major T. and D. League should be up near the top and expect to sec them there when they finally hit heir stride. A great crowd was on hand at when the Oshawa senior lacrosse Alexandra Park Saturday afternoon team held its first uniform praetice. Practically all the candidates were out and the players created a fine impression on the fans. The juniors also held a spirited workout but would like to see more out to proctice. Any young player avho has had a stick in his hand is invited to take part in training with prospects of landing a regular berth with the team, The juniors are coming along nicely and should be in the hunt all the time when the schedule opens. The local Central League ball team is just about ready to get into a real game, The condition of in recent practices reveals the fact hest senior ball teams ever produced in the Motor City. Schultz and Coach Stan Burgoyn team's prospects for the coming s players and the snap and dash shown that they will constitute one of the Manager e are decidedly optimistic over the eason, OSHAWA CITY MEET DEFEAT AT MIMICO Oshawa City eleven went down to defeat before Mimico Beach Saturday affernoon in a fast con- test at the latter's field, The locals have not yet struck their stride, but aref ast getting: into shape to battle their way to the top, They have been unfortunate in their opening fixtures but their showing on Saturday was most creditable and indicated great improvement over their previous exhibitions, HOME RUN HITTERS IN MAJOR LEAGUES The home run hitters in the Na- tional and American leagues yes- terday, and the records today, are as follows: Yesterday's home runs -- Rice, Tigers, 1; Richbourg, Braves, 1; Bottomley, Cardinals, 1, The Leaders American League -- Ruth, New York, 8; Hauser, Philadelphia, 7: Gehrig, New York, 3; K.

JACKSON'S ERRORS HELP CUBS WIN Chicago, May 13---Travis Jackson's three errors provided the break which enabled the Cubs to take their second straight game from the Giants here today, 6 to 5... It was the eighth straight victory for Chicago. The Giants scored five runs in the third inning on bunched hits and Johnny Butler's two errors and appeared certain of victory at that stage. R.H.E.

HOGABTH'S RAILWAY PLAN XOT BEFORE COM > Hamilton, May 13.--Colonel IL McLaren, a Commissioner of th Timiskaming & Northern Ounter'o Railway, states today that the pro- posal of D. M.

The reported transfer to Cleveland will not materialize, as the Ohio city did not have any representatives around the, King Edward during the day, while I. -P. Weiner, who is behind the Philadelphia movement and his right hand man, were prominent all the time between sessions. A special committee composed of president Calder, Col, Hammond of the New York: Rangers and Charles Hughes of Detroit, was appointed to pro- ceed to Philadelphia in the near future and inspect the situation in that city, but judging from the re- marks of various governors of the league the Quaker City is a sure starter in the major loop next Win- ter. There was quite a discussion over the transfer of the franchise. Outside of the Pittsburg franchise the most important matters were the announcement of the result of the draft and the re-election of the offi- cers, The latter was a matter of routine, President Calder being re- clected for his twelfth term and last year's board of governors being re- turned as follows: Col. Hammond, New York Rangers; Walter Ander- son, New York Americans; Charles F. Adams, Boston; Charles Hughes, Detroit; Major Fred McLaughlin, Chicago; Horace Townsend, Pitts- byrg; Leo Dandurand, Canadiens; James Strachan, Montreal Maroons; Dave Gill, Ottawa, and Conn Smythe, Toronto. As soon as the Pittsburg franchise is transferred Mr. Towns- end will resign and the Philadelphia club will appoint his successor, Eight Players Drafted Light players was the catch made by a total of five clubs in the draft. Pittsburg in the American group and Canadiens, Maroons, Toronto and Ottawa in the Canadian section not strengthening their teams by this Jgncthod, The Detroit Cougars appear to have been the most successful, as Jack Adams secured Herbie Lewis brilliant centre player of the Duluth Hornets and Dolly Dolson of Strat- ford, the outstanding goalie in the Canadian League. Joe Ironstone of the Torcnto Falcons gees to the New York Amcricans, while the only other Canadian. leaguer to go up is Vic Ripley of the Kitchener Millionaires, who joins the Chicago Black Hawks, The latter also secured A. Gottselig of Winnipeg, one cf the leading scor- ers of the American Association, Some of those M.P.'s could be hir- ed in private capacity to work for a good deal less than $4,000 per CATCHER HAEFFNER BALKS AT JOINING THE BISONS Buffalo, May 13--Catcher Bill Hacfiner, secured by Buffalo from the New York Giants, arrived yes- terday, but apparently came all-the way irom the metropolis just to enjoy the scenery from a Pullman window. He immediately balked at playing in the International League and after a conference with President Robert- son and Manager Clymer, betook himself to a grand stand scat to see how baseball is not played in the Toole loop. Presidént Robertson declared last night he would not attempt to 'sign Haeffner in his present state of mind and notified Manager McGraw that he does not care to close the deal. ROYALS AND BEARS SPLIT DOUBLE BILL Montreal, Que., May 13.--New- ark closed their first visit to Montreal by splitting a double bill with the Royals this afternoon. The Bears won the first game, 5-1, and lost the second, 8-2. The division game Newark the series, 3 games to 2. 3 Bentley was wild In the first game, but the Royals could not cash on his generosity in giving passes, failing badly ih the pinch- es when hits meant runs. Bentley was going strong at the end. Excellent hurling by Bill Ball- ey gave the Royals a win In the second. Bailey held the slugging Bears to two hits, while the Roy- als clouted five off Russell and Fischer, four of them for extra hases. Fowler, with a homer and a triple batted in six of the Mont- real Royals, WALTER JOHNSON TO REJOIN BEARS Newark, N.J.,, May 13.--Walter Johnson manager of the Newark Bears left this city tonight for Rochester where he will take charge of the team for the first time since the International League season opened. Johnson became {ll while the team was in training at St. Augus- tine, Fla.,, and George McBride, coach, has been in charge. CLEVELAND 2, ATHLETICS 0 Cleveland, May 13, -- George Uhle held Philadelphia to one hit and the Indians took their sec- ond straight game from the Ath- letics here today 2 to 0, It was Uhle's sixth win of the season and he fanned six of the visitors, Mickey Cochrane, Philadelphia catcher, garnered that team's on- ly hit, a-double to right in the sec~ ond inning, The score: Philadel, ,.00 Cleveland ,.00 Batteries -- Rr R.H.E. 0000--010 1100-250 mel. and Coch- 000 0060 m year,--8St, Catharines Standard, READING WINS 8 TO 1 .
