Harold Dainty, on the mound for the G.M.C.'s held the Petes to 9 hits, in 9 innings, * while Heckman, well known C.0.B, 1. figure, yielded the locals 12 in 8 innings. Mayor R. D. Preston officially opened the season i? pitching tne first ball, with Dr, IL, Henry, chairman of the 8 Commis sion, at the bat, and T, McFadden, president of the C.0,B,L,, bemua the plate.

At the face-off in' the second session Davis caught the St, Kitts' defence flat-footed and went in to score in b5 seconds, St. Catharines settled down, and Bill Pennie miss- ed the net by. inches, Pennie soon afterwards put his team in the scoring column, taking a pass trom Lounsbury. 'The tying goal came one minute afterwards, when the rubber was scooped into the St, Simon's net from a scrimmage directly in front of Sutherland. I'he period ended with the score 2 to 2. Neither team scored in the third period, though both had several close calls, Virtue stole some of Dayis' thunder when he went in at the face-off in the fourth quar- ter and put Torontc in the lead with a well;placed shot. Silk al- most evened the count, hut his shot went wide by inches, Silk got in the way of a fast St, Simon's shot at the goal and went down for the count. McGregor, however, scooped up the ball and tossed it into the net for the visitors' final goal. The gong sounded shortly afterwards. Ty Silk, formerly of Weston, and "Farmer" Brown, of Toroato, were both in St. Kitts' uniforms and turned in useful performances.

TWIN CITY SWAMP LONDON 17 TO 6 Kitchener, May 24.--In a loose- played game the Twin Cilty sen- jors this afternoon defeated Lon- don in an Intercounty League game, 17 to 6, at Victoria Park, thus retaining the lead in the league race. The homesters landed hard on the offerings of Coursey, Bonk and Kelleher for fifteen safe bingles, two doubles, two triples and a home being in the collection, to centre field for the circuit. The Londoners leaned on Hill's offerings in spots though the Jat. ter was never really extended, aud they got two doubles, two tniples and a homer. Coursey at times pitched well, but poor support was almost invariably followed by a hitting barrage on the part of the locals. i By Innings R. H E.

TORONTO, BUFFALO DIVIDE SPOILS Toronte; May 25--Toronto and Buffalo divided the holiday spoils, and that means they also broke cven in the four-game series. The Bisons took the mornifg pastime, 11 to 6, bunching their hits on top of the Leafs' errors, two. by the usually re- lizble Warren Cote in the seventh inning being particularly costly. Manager O'Hara used up three pit- chers, starting with Clarence Fisher and finishing with Don Songer, Riel being the in-between heaver. Rip Collins' masterful pitching against Leo Mangum, the Bison star boxman, gave the Leafs the afternoon game, 3 to 1. Collins allowed but three hits, scattered over as many innings, and probably would have es- caped being scored on had Eddie Phillips not thrown the ball to centre eld on Felix's steal in second inning. Close to fifteen thousand fans attended the two games, 4,000 turning out in the morning.

Both pitchers went the route, the managers of the two teams appar- ently Yelying on the batting prowess of the players to make up for the falling down in the fielding.
