Leafs Deteat Eagles 12-8 in Juvenile Softball Game Last Year's Champs Display Smooth Working Team-- Initial Inning Proves the Downfall of Eagles The Maple Leafs are still lead- ing the Juvenile League by virtue of their 12-8 victory over the Eag- les in a fast exhibition of softball at Cowan Park last night. The Leafs are by far the best team in the league, and the other teams should start playing ball or the champs will be running away with the laurels, Goodall was the Leafs' best field- er, making several hard ones louk soft. ' The Eagles, though somewhat strengthened from last year, are noticeably weak in the outfield and behind the plate. Toppings and Lit- tle dropping flies that any ordin- ary player would have got;- while Kitchen didn't hold up "Rocky" Guiltman as good as he could have done, and many passed balls tnat would have been, "ple' for another catcher let in runs that were un- earned. Lefty Aiken started his first game for the Leafs and did well, although somewhat erratic, Little and Leydon hit 5 home runs, the latter realizing a ballplay- er's dream when he clouted cne with three on, A large crowd was on hand and was well rewarded with the brand of ball served up. The teams: Leafs--Goodall 2b, Tangbord 3h, Hall ¢, Teydon 1b, Robinson if, Cornish ss, Campbell 'rf, Macdon- ald cf, Aiken p, Eagles--Kitchen ¢, Norris 1st, Bradd 3h, Corrin 2b, Barker ss, Little 1f, Topping cf, Baites cf, Myers rf, Guiltman p.

In Campbell and Guil- lam they have two hurlers who compare with any in the league, and the infielders are in the same class, The base-ump, of last night's game was raw on a few of his de- cisions and needs to go to have his lanrps inspected--no hard feelings, This Intermediate League should look out or the "Kids" will be gathering the crowds, The writer is told that they only had a hand- ful of spectators at Alexandra Park last night, while the Juveniles had a "full house." They were served up real ball too--no kidding. GLASGOW RANGERS PLAY ULSTER AT STADIUM TOMORROW No greater soccer team ever left Britain's shores at any time for any- where than Glasgow Rangers Scot- tish League champions, Scottish Cup holders and custodians of the Glas- gow Charity Cup who are at present fulfilling a series of games on this side and who will oppose Ulster United at Maple Leaf Stadium, Tor- onto, on the evening of June 13th. There will only be one other game in Canada, and that at Montreal. In the history of British soccer no name is more famous than that of the Rangers who were joint champions with Dunbarton in season 1890-1 the year the Scottish League was formed, and altogether have proudly worn the League crown on fourteen occa- sions. ' In the last ten years. Rangers have led all other clubs in the league championship race seven times, a wonderful example of first-class consistency. In season 1898-9 they scored the maximum number of points, and in 1920-21 played 42 lea- e games and were only once de- Be Their feat in the season recently concluded in g the league championship, the Scottish Cup, Glasgow Cup and two other minor championships has never been ualled, In defeating the famous ay Celtic in the Scottish Cup final by 4 goals to 0 in the sence] Ham n of 118000 spectators at mpd Park they gave the finest exhibition ever staged at the big event in Scot- tish soccer history. : This is the first occasion that an outstanding British team of soccer champions have visited the American Continent, and the players on tour are valued by the club at over $300,- 000. The team comprises experience and youth and the artistry of several of the players cannot be equalled, and soccer lovers are assured of a sparkling exhibition of how Britain's national game is played by a team Regent TONIGHT DOLORES DEL RIO Ramona Sce It For Thrill Supreme of acknowledged "Stars." Travelling with the team are Baillie Duncan Graham, J.P., O.BE, esident of the Rangers Club, James ie, a director and president of ssociation, and Wil- Following are the scores for the games played in the South Ontario Football association last week.

Standing of the League Von Lost Draw Points C.0B.L.Chatter » J SPOR1 SNAPSHO1S _ This week's games will altogeth- er change the standings of the teams. On Wednesday Belleville Nationals travel to Kingeton to take on the Ponies, while Peterboro "Petes" ramble out to the town that Bob Elliott 'owns to do battle with the Deloro "Smelters" in a double-header. On Friday Peterboro travel to Kingsfon to play their postponed game of June 10, while Joe Daley's crew turn right around and hop back to Peterboro on the next day to lock horns with the Petes again. Deloro "Smelters" come up to Oshawa on Saturday next, June 16, for their first tilt of the season with the Chester-Shultz-Burgoyne General Motors clan, and this shapes up like a real tussle us the "Smelters' are at present going big guns. Lois can happen in one week in the C.0.B.L., with tne teams as evenly matched as they are. . . It is rumored that Joe Daley uas sold his sprinkling can so he won't be troubled any more with wet grounds--Good Luck, Joe! The Kingston Ponies are in the midst of a hard drive to get into contending positions, as their two wins in last two starts indicate that they are hitting their stride, and are going to be a hard nut for any man's team to bump off. And what a Murderers' Row they have in Buck, "Bubs" Britton, "Del" can happen, anytime, sluggers in action, with these Peterboros are due to come to life with a vengeance one of these days. They have been having some bad breaks, and the brand of ball they have heen playing stamps the Petes as a hard club to get past, Last year's Ontario Finalists have a much better team than their pres- ent. league standing would indi- cate, Watch Tommy Holyman's team climb when the weather warms up. We hear that the rotund Ernie Rowsome of the Belleville "Nation- als" lost a lot of weight on June 4, Too bad, Ernie, and just when it seemed to be in the old Bat Bag! But these Ponies have a terrible kick! } ! Every team in the loop is getting down to rea] ball with the coming of a little warm weather, Satur- day's game in Peterboro was an ex- ceedingly well-played argument, and had the fans on their toes all through the game, in real C.0.B.L, style--Oh Boy! but she is going to be a real argument before things finally get sifted out, Ken. Colling says that the Deloro Smelters is a rea] team, and is go- ing to be awfully hard to keep down. So it looks like a real game will be on top for mext Saturday afternoon, when their hook-up with the League leaders at Alexandra Park. TTT LONG BRANCH FURNISHES SURPRISE Silver Song, faithful sprinter in the retinue of the Garrigan family, low= ered the colors of a shifty sea of short distance racers in the Bramp- ton Purse, feature of the fifth day's card at Long Branch yesterday. A length back of the Garrigan mare ran Lieutenant II, the favorite, to get the second share of the purse, while Charles H was a tiring third, three spans to the rear. Mollie Eli- zabeth and Mere Play were never factors, re Apprentice Paul McGinnis, youth- full employee of the Seagram Stable, piloted Silver Song, and it was onc of the trio of mounts which he chas- ed into the winners' circle} the other two being Noirette, longshot winner of the third affair, and Apple Pie, who won the sixth tilt, Silver Song broke with the leaders and raced up on the outside as Lieu- tenant II took to the front hugging the rail. Mollie Elizabeth and Char- les H attended for three furlongs, but found the pace too fast for them. Lieut: t IL held cc d around the bend, but Silyer Song lapped him turning into the stretch and pulle away strongly in the final drive. Five Favorites Fall. Long Branch form held true if the runners did not and, as has been the case throughout the meeting, the hoi polloi, after seeing their favorites score in the first two races, were laid low when five public choices toppled in a row to conclude the af- ternoon's sport. Noirette, a two- ear-old owned by Mrs. Elmer rueman, paid $31.15 to win the third race, and after the tilt was purchased at private terms by Davie Garrity, the Toronto shay, who man- ages "Frenchy" Belanger. Jockey Willie Harvey gave Gym- khana a hustling ride to win the second race, while the J. C. Fletcher otegt, Johnny Gwynne, piloted Le Bs into the charmed circle in the fourth. Apple Pie beat a set of ordinary three year olds in the sixth and the ancient Ed Pendleton scored in the closing number. Elmer True- man saddled two winners, Noirette and Apple Pie. EE HARRY ERTLE TO REFEREE Montreal, June 11.--Harry Er- tle, of Jersey City, one of the box- ing world's most moted referees, will handle the Tony Comnzoneri- Vie Foley match here Wednes- day night ,according to an an- nouncement made by Promoter Jake Carey here tonight. Both Canzoneri, who holds the world's featherweight title, and Foley. will conclude their training "J here tomorrow might. Cherry, and George Ada--anything.| have. \ for one to lose oneself, : a break. ones in 1928. lent turn-out every night, anent the gate, They deserved it! of darkness, °* considered a sure thing, TALENTED TIMES PLAYERS PRACTICE The "Times" softhall team will practise tonight at Cowan Park in preparation for the game with Bell Telephone All Stars this Thursday at Alexandra Park. Everyone who thinks the only dif- ference between himself and Ruth is that Ruth has a press-agent, is requested to attend. The modest Bellboys have tacked the cogno- men "All Stars" on themselves, thinking perhaps of their up fn the air tendencies. Frank Camp- bell has the Newshounds working in close harmony and the boys have agreed to knock off work for a whole week if they lose the game, as punishment, An ex- major league umpire wearing smoked glasses and a bullet-proof vest will make a special trip from New York for the occasion. He will be in the sole of a spectator, however as he has a wife and family, CHICAGO TAKE 2ND GAME FROM YANKS Chicago, June 11.--Herhp Pen- nock was pounded for seven hits and six runs in the third inning d and the White Sox took the second straight game from the Yankees here today by a score of 6 to 1. Although wild fa the early inn- ings, Blankenship pitched great ball for Chicago. He held the league leaders to four hits, two of which came in the seventh inning and produced New York's only run. In the wild jamboree of scoring in the third Metzler and Reynolds got triples off Pennock's delivery and Blankenship hit a double. BROWNS BEAT BOSTON St. Louis, June 11.--Allowing but six scattered hits, and striking out half a dozen batsmen, Alvin Crowder won his third straight vie- tory and the Browns defeated the Boston Red Sox 2 to 1 for the second straight win of series here. A balk by MeFayden after Kress had singled and Blue had been is- sued a pass, placed the Brown shortstop in a position to score the winning ruh on a long fly in the seventh. DROP ONE Detroit, Jume 11.--Successive home runs by Al Simmons and Jim- my Fox with the score tied im the eighth inning, gave the Philadel- phia Athletics a 4 to 2 victory over Detroit in the second game of the series here today. Yhe circuit drives decided a pitchers' battle be- tween Sam Gibson, Tiger right- hander, and Ossie Orwoll, recruit southpaw of the Athletics. Those tardy Lacrosse teams, Torontos and Weston are in for a few scathing remarks from the O.A.L.A. officials and mayhap a fine. Apparently they imagined Oshawa was some place the trains backed into. We met an acquaintance at the game Saturday who inquired if we were working at Motors. On receiving a negative answer he remarked "so you're the one'. Funny ideas some people It is said that the Weston Lacrosse players all took week-end trips to give that 8-0 score a chante to blow over. It's no fun thinking up smart answers to all the cracks the Humber River natives are sure to hand out, and Weston is hardly large enough Note to Eddie Powers: Slip a little T. N. T. in their Java and see what happens, If that doesn't work try Carbolic, If you can't have Lacrosse players you might at least give the plot salesmen . Promoters and Girl softball pitchers should remember that too many free passes cause figures in/the debit column. Kelley Degray, Red Spencer, and Bob Stephenson were picked on the all-star Lacrosse team of 1926 and if they continue their present form are quite likely to be numbered among the chosen For real brilliance in softball conversation listen closely to some of .the cracks pulled by the fair performers at the Collegiate grounds. To the remark 'she can't hit!" the inevitable answer is "Oh, she can't eh!" Shades of Stallings, McGraw and McGillicudy! The members of the Oshawa Lawn Bowling club are show- ing rare form on the greens on Simcoe street every decent evening when the weather permits, The bowls enthusiasts appear to be rounding into the condition of last summer, and the manner in which the players are curving around the kitty foretells some keen inter-club competition when tournament time rolls around in July, The lawns are in splendid condition and there is an excel- Rumor has it that Dempsey and Tunney will mingle for a third time this September and Montreal is mentioned as the loca- tion. Tex Rickard will now sing "Good Bye Broadway, hello Mont. real" followed by "Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong--" The Junior groupings in the 0.A.L.A. schedule will be ar- ranged this week with six teams in the Toronto group that should furnish some interesting struggles during the season. The Juniors expect to get under way around June 20th and the G, M, C, rep- resentatives have been practising faithfully every evening at Alex- andra Park under the tutelage of Harry Lott and George Con- stable who can see nothing but a championship aggregation gal- loping on the sward, Fox, Schepley, Whitten and Davidson who performed' so creditably with the Seniors are all eligible for the lower series and able to play with either the Seniors or Juniors all season, which privilege is not granted in any other sport. Neither the Senior Lacrosse or ball team worked out last night, both squads resting on their laurels gained on Saturday. The trio of runs registered in the eighth inning by the C. 0.B.L. entry when the "Petes" had a one run lead that looked as huge as the Hamilton mountain, bespeaks a fighting team. A col- lection of players that refuse to say "uncle" is a team worth root- ing for. The locals are idle until next Saturday when Deloro pay its first visit to this city, The Smelters crowd is liable to he worn out by the 16th, playing a double-header on Wednesday with Peterboro. The game will more than likely he called on account Belleville meet Kingston on the same day and the results of the game should cause a shifting in the league standing. After Oshawa's decisive win on Saturday, several of the fans in Toronto are willing to stay away from the horses all week and hold the roll for Oshawa"s nose, Betting St. Simons for place is Wi nches Toronto Splits With Reading Reading, Penn. June 11--Toronto broke even with Reading in the bar- gain matinee here today, the Leafs taking the first engagement, 3-1, while the Keystones hammered Leverenz and Doyle hard to win, 9-4, in the 'seven inning nightcap. Bill O'Hara trotted out Johnny Prudhomme, always an enigma against Reading, to oppose "Slicker" Parks in the first game, and the "Knowing ones," all set for a real pitching duel, were not disappointed. Hurling cleverly, Prudhomme held Harry hen: Keys to five hits, while the league leaders tallied nine of which Cote clicked off three, in- cluding a slashing two-bagger. The elongated Toronto mounds- man had two hits, a circuit drive over thie left-field wall, and a two- base crash in the seventh, when three* successive doublies brought victory to the invaders' camp. Leverenz No Puzzle Secking revenge mn the second game, the Hinchmanites took a lik- ing to Walter Leverenz offerings, and merged from their recent four-game losing slump by driving the southpaw to the showers in the fourth. Two home-runs by George Quellich seem- ed to unnerve Leverenz, who gave way to Jess Doyle, but who, like his predecessors was hit hard and far. Although the Leafs made a strong rally in their half of the seventh, tallying three runs, "Socks" Seibold bearing down, fanned Joe Rabbitt to end hostilities, Sensational catches were made by Rabbit Whitman, who backed up against the concrete wall in right centre, and leaping the air, speared two drives off the bats of Dale Alexander and Lena Styles, robbing the "Leafs of at least four runs in the second game. There were two men on bases on each occasion. Joe Rabbitt also made a nifty cir- cus catch when he plucked Chicken Hawk's drive out of the bleachers. Prudy's Homer In the first game Prudhomme start- ed the scoring in the fifth inning when he poled the first ball pitched to him over the left-field wall for a home-run. A barrage of two-base hits in the seventh gave the Leafs two runs. Styles doubled to right, went to third on Burke's sacrifice, and scored on Cote's two bagger to right. Cote counted on Prudhomme's double to deep centre. This ended tlie invaders' scoring, but the Keys threatened in the seventh, when Conroy, who walked, saved the Keys from a coat of kal- somine when he dented the pentagon on Moore's triple into right. Again in the eighth Hinchman's hirelings started a rally, but a fast double-play put a crimp to their scoring. Three home runs by the Keys-- Quellich polling two and "Tweet" Walsh one--aided Reading to cdp the second game, a seven inning session and gave the O.Hara leaders a three to one margin in the present series, Whitby Ladies By Win- ning 37-15 in Last Night's Ladies' Softball Fixture --Large Crowd on Hand The Chev. ladies tied with Whit- by for first place in the Ladles' Softball League last night wben they defeated Buicks 27-15. It was one of the slowest games the soft- ball fans have witnessed this sea- son, neither team showing to ad- vantage, either on the field or at bat. A good many double plays were forfeited because of slow thinking and slower playing, . The Chevs. showed their superiority in the batting line by chalking up 4 home runs, to Buicks none. a. Cringle was responsible for two, D. Kennedy one, A. Walker one, Line-up: Buick--Siblock, MeGill, Fergu- son, Cassidy, Tyrell, R. Reece, N. Reece, Crandell, Russell. Chevs.--D. Kennedy, D. Moffatt, I. Goold, V. Bark, M. Elliott, A. Cringle, A. Walker, B. Blair, L. Holmes, V. Fulton, Score by innings: -- Buicks -- 2 0 4 2 4 2 1--15 Chevs, -- 2 5 6 6 2 6 2 8--37 Chevs. registered in every inn- ing, scoring at least two runs in each frame to swell the total. In the eighth inning the slugging win- ners galloped in with an octet of runs to make the final count av, The Buick hurler was far too gen- erous with her offerings, foreing in runs in the second frame by strol- ling eight batters. The contro: of both 'mound performers was er- ratic and the screen behind the plate was subjected to a barrage of passed balls. A little practice would go a long way towards mak- ing the games contests instead of spectacles. ROYALS LOSE 3-2 Jersey City, June 11--"Borneo" Beall's wild hurling cost Montreal a game here today, the Jersey City Cats romping off with a close 3 to 2 vic- tory. Montreal accounted for a run in the first and another in the fifth, but Beall became very liberal in the last half of the sixth inning, and issued four bases on balls that enabled the Jerseys to tie the score. "Chick" Fewster and Joe Fowler were both banished from the game in the seventh when they protested a decision on the part of the Umpire Fyfe. The decision offsct the attempt on the part of Fewster and Fowler to complete a double play which would have returned the Jerseys "for the inning. Instead, the runners were safe on third, and Selkirk's run, which was tallied during the play, was allowed. It proved to be the winning run of which draws to a close here Tuesday. the game.
