Matthews went the route for Osh- awa in the first game, while Dain- ty did the same in the afternoon session, the latter sending him- self materially up the scale in the league's list of pitchers, The Morning' Game Probably the most exciting and thrilling game evef witnessed in Oshawa for several seasons and de- cidedly the best contest seen this year was staged at Alexandra. Rark yesterday morning when the King- ston Ponies met Oshawa Motors in the first of the two game series; From the very first it was a sensational af- fair and as the game advanced it be- came more and more exciting until when the eleventh inning arrived the fans were hopping around like mani- acs. And at that they could well be pardoned, and to prove it we'll start at the eighth inning. . Kingston went out one, two three New Martin he field wilh 2 stifle ges vanes they woud ; 4. to 3 victory .which to be already their Their four had been first came nm. fourth spasm when Elliott cracked a single through short, ad- vanced on Arneil's single and scored when Quinn threw to centre field in an attempt to catch Arneil stealing 'second. The remainder of the quar- tet came in the fifth. Gibson, the first man up promptly started the commotion by Fitting a tantalizer down to McCallum who did everything but massacre the ball before it came to rest and before Gibson was forced to pull up at sec- ond base. McCallum did better on the next batter however, retiring Buck on a ground hit ball almost the same as Gibson's on the play "Hoot" advanced to third to be in an easy position to score when Britton . walloped a fast one out into centre field. Then Cherry stepped to the plate and polished off the remaining two runs by riding the sphere clean to the track in deep left field for a home run, scoring Britton ahead of him. \ . The score was opened by Oshawa in the first when they counted one. They added two more in the seventh to make the score 4 to 3 when King- ston took the field in the last half of the eighth. Hank Elliott made the circuit in the opening frame when he connected for a double into right, stole third while the ball was being relayed in to the plate to catch Reg Fair and scored through Ar- il's error at first, the result of a 'ground hit ball from Matty Matthews. % In the seventh, Matty Matthews, not content with- hurling one of his est Eames of the season, took the matter of scoring in his own hands and opened the inning with a smart double into left garden. Gord Young advanced him to third with a neat single through short, and both ad- vanced, Matthews scoring, when Tunney Morison placed a perfect sacrifice. bunt out in front of the plate, Wolfe grounded out to second to advance oung to third from where the latter scored when a ground hit ball off Kellar's bat went clean through Bubs Britton's legs, Thus the scoreboard registered 4 to 3 in favour of the Ponies when it seemed as if the game were all over. Then came Oshawa's half of the eighth when they tied the score. Britton started the trouble for King- ston by repeating his quaint little act of the previous cadenza, to give McCallum a free passage to first base. Reg Fair was quick to take advantage of the break and dumped out a sacrifice bunt to send McCal- lum to second. A passed hall as the result of too much stuff on one of Jagpieson's hooks permitted the local sagker to get to third, while Matty tthews again came to the front by connecting for his second double in two successive innings, to drive in the run, Kingston went out in succession in their half of the ninth while Mori- son and Wolfe, the first two up, did the same thing for Oshawa. Dainty, pinch hitting for Kellar, started a rally at this stage which was soon squelched however, when he hit the first ball pitched into short right field, winn left him marooned on first base when he popped out to the catcher for the third out. ' The game was nearly over in the tenth and if it had heen, the score would not have been 9 to 6 for Qsh- awa but 5 to 4 for Kingston. One of the most beautiful plays of the day saved the situation for Oshawa. Buck, the first man up for Kingston touched Matthews for his second single into right to get things under way. Brit- ton advanced him on a one bagger in- to centre and then both advanced on a sacrifice fly by Cherry into right field, But for smart fielding on the part of Wolfe who got under the fly, it would have been a hit instead of a sacrifice. With one out and men on seccnd and third, Ada, who is leading th: league in batting, hit a fly into falsly short centre field which caused Reg Fair'to do some tall stepping before he snagged it to make the second out. Buck, at third, then razed home in an attempt to score and only Fair's throw direct in to Quirn, on a dead line with home plate, prevented the runner from scoring. The whole play happened in about half the time it takes to tell fut it alone was one well worth the price of admission to see. # With the score still tied, Oshawa did nothing in the tenth although Jamieson or Kingston distinguished imself by striking out the first two of the three batters he fanped dur- ing the game. Elliott, the third man up, flied out to his namesake on sec- ond base for the Ponies, who made his catch look almost like a robbery, behind first base into right to gather in the hit. One batter had been retired before Kingston started increasing their score in the eleventh. J. Arneil, the catcher, nicked Matthews for a hit through short to start the trouble. N. G. Arnel kept up the good work of the family by tr Matthews for a walk. Jamieson, followed, helped out his own cause by singling into left to load the bases.

Matty Matthews, the first up for wa in their half of the eleventh, the crowd was still cheering Mat- thews, Jamieson struck out Young and the second out followed when Nipper Jones, pinch hitting for Mori son, grounded out to first base. And now it seemed more like a hook than an actual ball game. was six to five in favour of the visit ing team, two were out and it was the last half, not of the ninth but of the eleventh, 3 It all seemed to depend on Hérhe Wolfe, and A groan of dismay went up for a minute when he hoisted a high one into short center field to make an apparent third out. But the Fates were kind to Oshawa. Cherry dropped the ball after a gallant at. tempt and Wolfe took second on the blunder. While Jamieson was serv ing them up for Dainty, Wolfe gave the fans another thrill when he stole third, something which isn't seen every day in the week And then the Fates again smild, This time it was on Dainty. He hit down to Elliott at second who booted the ball for another very costly error, which resulted in Wolfe scoring, to tie the count 6 all, Dainty advanced when {Juin singled thsough short, and then came the grand climax of the game when McCallum hit his home run' into deep left field to score Dainty and Quinn ahead of him, and to win the game. It was certainly an exciting end to an exciting game. Roth teams played first class ball until Kingston cracked in the ele- venth. The pitching was about even and the hitting left little to be de- sired. Individual laurels were well distributed since nearly everyone had a hand in the outstanding features of the game. Matty Matthews however could not go without particular men- tion since he collected four hits out of five, all of them timely, and in addition admirably took care of the pitching' end of the matter.

SECOND GAME In: the second game, Kingston ran up 8 two-run lead in the first half of the opening frame, but Osh- awa retaliated with a four-run score in their half of the inning, and throughout th@fgame led the Ponies around by the halter, Both teams got two rups in the second, but in the third the Motor men broke away with five rups--scored on two hits, ore of them being # triple, :and four walks. Kingston, on the other hand, used five hits to score three runs in the eighth, their biggest inning.

Smith's save of a penalty kick was the feature of the game and saved the Motor- men from certain defeat. It was a meeting of gladiators, in which many exciting moments were the order, and although neither team gained a victory the Ulstermen had a slight margin on the general run of play. Oshawa Scored first, following a free klcw against Rankin for dangerous play, Sathrang heading past Fras. er, the Ulster custodian, giving him no chance whatever to clear. The Oshawa eleven held their advantage until f time, and well into the secon half, when Ulster, gfter despdrate efforts were rewarded when Moir placed a perfect corner, which Galloway passed to Cowan, the latter player beating Smith all the way to ev- en the 'score. Considerable feel- ing crept into the play, chiefly due to excited spectators urging the players to press matters. Ref> eree Currie, however, had the game well under control and only occasional scrimmages oceurred. Right from the start the Ulster eleven were disorganized, chiefly due to changes line, caused by the inability of Graham, their pivot man, to take the field." Cowan was placed at centre with Faulkner on the ex- treme right wing. Owing to an injured leg Faulkner was little or no good, and Cowan did not prove to he a Graham at the cen tre position, although he did the interval. Oshawa jwere all over Ulster in the first half, playing a steady win- ning style whch - entirely baffled the home defence, Sathrang being prominently dangerous. The second half saw the honors resting with the Redhanders, who did more than atone for their shortcomings earlier In the game, and the final whistle brought ve Hef from a gruelling onslaught, fn which every Ulster player showed' rea lability, Cup tie soccer pre- valled, neither side being given much latitude to exhibit any great amount of fancy work.
