Luke and Fox Clinch Game in Final Stanza 20.--Oshawa A C. Junior Lacrosse defeated Torontos 6 to 44 last night at Withrow Park, coming from behind after facing a 4 to 1 defeat at half time. Torontos, who were formerly Ir- ish Canadians, are the present Ju- nior champions and this is only the second time they have been defeated in three seasons, Play at all times was very fast and the checking hard and strenu- ous with the penalties about equal- ly divided, Bovin, Black and Hubbell for Oshawa were out of the game at different times for re- pairs, the result of hard bouy work, To pick a star would be an in- justice to the balance of the win- ners as their team play stood out, although "Chuck" Davidson's work on the scoring end of three com- bination plays to change the score from four to one to four all was pretty to watch, Davy taking the pass from Black for one and fa Luke and Gibson the others to make the teams even, Fox made a pretty play to giive L.

Leats Defeat Orioles 2-1 Burke's Single in Tenth Helps Fisher Defeat John Dunn Toronto, July 20.--Arguments, thrilling plays, good pitching and a superabundance of strategy made yesterday's battle at Leaf Stadium one of the standouts of the season. Toronto won the decision in the tenth, when "Bucky" Burke singl- ed with the bases full and made himself the hero of the game when he brought that hectic struggle to a victorious close, The win put Bill O'Hara's men back on the heels of the league-leading Roch- ester Red Wings and injected a lot of life, ambition and confidence into local ranks. The outstanding verbal debate of the day took place in the eventful tenth, when apparently both arbit- ers erred in calling Devine safe at third base. In this round the Orioles had a fine chance to go into the lead when they had two men on the runway and only one out, but Dunn took Chambers out and sent Otto Freitag in as a pinch batsman, The latter grounded to Cote, who headed Lamotte off at the plate and the ex-Leaf started dodging up and down the third base line while Mickey Devine sprinted to third, How Play Occurred Finally Lamotte raced hack to third, but ran wide, and Clarence Fisher, following him, touched Devine first and then tagged La- motte, who was off the bag. As Lamotte was entitled to the base, both were declared out hy Umpire Finneran, who a moment later re- versed his decision. The players gathered around the arbiters, exchanging bitter com- ments, and it is said that Umpire Carpenter, veteran of the league staff, was convinced that both run- ners were out, clared otherwise. However, Mooers flied out, and the Orioles did no scoring, much to the joy of the fans and the discomfiture of Jack Dunn, BIG BILL TILDEN IS SUSPENDED Paris, July 19.--The tennis house that Big Bill Tilden built for 1928, just reaching the upper stor- ies, suddenly crashed to the ground today when the architect was de- posed, Charged with violation of the anretaur rule of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, through the writing of newspaper articles "covering" the English champion- ships at Wimbledon, Tilden was re- moved from the United States Dav- is Cup forces today, on the eve of the interzone finals with Italy, by President Samuel H. Collom of the association. And so, like 8 pasteboard strue- ture, tumbled the hopes and organ- ization Big Bill had built with painstaking care for the recapture from France of the historie trophy, lost last year in a bitter series at Germantown, Pa., and for the first time in the Davis Cup history of the past nine years, Tilden's fam- ous smashes and educated slices will be missing from the compe- titions.

MUST BE RESPECTED (Detroit News) Water is an element of which men consider themselves master, Yet we need always Lo remember --especially during these hot days when its coolness beckons so in- invitingly--that water is an ele- ment to be respected. Those who g0 upon, or into or under water, must know what they are about. Children of five or six years may be taught to swim in balf a dozen lessoms. The essentials of boatsmanship or even canoeing are not many and are quickly learned. Yachting is a sport to acquire more slowly, under exper- fenced guidance.

ROYALS AND KEYS DIVIDE TWIN BILL Montreal, July i9.--Montreal and Reading divided the double bill here this afternoon, the Royals taking the first game, 6-3, and the Keys the abbreviated contest, 7-1. Tom Gulley won the first game for the Royals in the eighth inning when he knocked out his thirteenth home run of the season with one on base. The Keys tied the score in the sixth, but from then on Sherrid held them safely. It was Sherrid's eighth victory of the season. Eddie Lautenbacher had the Royals eating out his hand in the second contest, allowing but three scattered hits, Philadelphia, in the single scored PESTIEEROUS FLIES (Hamilton Spectator) Garbage and decaying matter in general is the favorite nesting place of the fly, where she lays about 120 eggs at a time, which in turn become full-grown flies with- in a period of ten days.

St. Andrew's 1ie St. Joan of Arc's Exhibition Game Junior Baseball Championship Display Fine Form -- Return Game in Toronto Tuesday In a short, snappy five inning ex- hibition game played before a good crowd at Alexandra Park last night, St. Joan of Arc of the Holy Name junior league of Toronto played to a tie with Abbie Corrin's St. An- drews who appeared on a local dia- mond for the first time this year and are to be credited with having made a decidedly good impression. Although the affair was short, be- ing curtailed by darkness, it enabled the fans to get a fair line on the St. Andrews team and also to sce how the best of the teams in Toronto stood up against them. St. Andrews came through the inspection with colours flying and are called to win the return contest in Toronto next Tuesday afternoon. The local outfit's fielding after a couple of breaks in the first inning, was well above par while their hitting was timely and dangerous. 'Dozy" Ogden went the route for the Saints and with the support holding out be- hind him, worked like a million dol- lar prospect. Lortie, a new face on the team handled the receiving end of the game nicely and will improve with every game. In the absence of Hubbell, another new member of the team, "Brick" Evans held down first base last night and came through the fracas without a mishap. Alex Grey the smart center fielder is a third new face on the outfit while "Chick" O'Neil requires no introduction to an Oshawa crowd. He played right ficld yesterday and is in line to hurl the return game on Tuesday in his home town, St. Joan of Arc lived up to the ad- vance notices to the effect that they would be a hard team to beat and with Rafferty serving up consistent ball and the team working good be- hind him, it looked for a time that the two runs they gathered in their half of the first inning, would mean a victory for them. St. Joan of Arc Get Two They were more or less fortunate in getting their brace of counters as compared to the manner in which St. Andrews earned their two. Haw- son, the first man up for St. Joan of Arc hit a hot grounder down to Wink Gummow which eluded him and allowed the runner to get safe. Og- den struck out Lynch and Gummow made amends by retiring Hartnet for the second out, but in the meantime Hawson stole second. Bowers the clean-up man singled into center field and Hawson held third on the play, to score with Bowers hehind him when Rowden made a hurried throw to first base on O'Donnell's short grounder and missed the vi- cinity of the sack by a few feet. Og- den ended the inning by striking out Mitchell. Doc Rowden with a count of three and one on him, was hit by a pitched hall to start St. Andrews rally in the first. "Ty" Little advanced Rowden with a single and Grey came through witli the hit that scored Rowden to make the score 2-1. The remainder of the side went out in order in this frame. Both teams went out in succession in the second while in the third St. Andrews pulled off a smart double play, Little to Gummow to Evans to nip a dangerous rally in the right place, and without any damage being done. Grey drew a walk in the local's half of the third but was left stranded. In the fourth after two Toronto youths had been left on first and second bases when the third out was made, St. Andrews came in to send across their tieing run. Two were out when Baird rapped a double out into center field to he immediately followed by a single from Lortie into almost the same place, on which Baird crossed the plate for a well earned run on two successive hits, Both teams made a good effort in instances but good fielding and pitch- ing prevented either team to get any farther than second. The increas- ing darkness also made it difficult especially for the batters and hence the game had to he called at this stage with the 2-all verdict still re- maining. The argument will prob- ably be settled however when the two teams meet again in Toronto. The box score :-- St. Joan of Arc AB R o ~~ lol Hawson if ...,.... Lynch 20 .rs000+:» Hartnet 1b ,..,...
