Three heats were run with the current and three against it, with the slowest mile covered at an av- erage of 01.926 statute miles per hour and the fastest in 93.722, 7 The average erased all records for speedhoats and even eliminated the mark of 74.4 nautical miles per hour, established by W¥tabl WFar- man's hydro-glider, a boat driven hy an aerial propellor, Tt also bet- tered by more, than 12 miles an hour George Wond's wnnofficial mark of 80.67, made with Miss America IT, in 1021, The latter mark was not recognized by tne International Motor Yacht Union hecause of the layout of the course, 13 02 Newark Bears Defeat Jersey Cats 6 to 2 Jersey City, N.J., Sept. 4.-- Steady pitching by Don Bremnan, former (ieorgetown star, and some hard and opportune hitting in the opening round gave Newark the third game and lead in its current series with Jersey City here to- day, by a score of 6 to 2. Higgins hurled well after the first inning but singled by Conlan, Carroll and Jenkins and a double by Kingdon and a hit batsman resulted in four runs for the Bears in that inning. Brennan kept the Skeeters' hits wes? scattered and was well sup- ported, * Parkside Ladies Win Title Freddie Hamilton's Team Takes Toronto Championship at Sunnyside Toronto, Sept. , -- Once again the Major League of Sunnyside wan the eity championship when Fred Hamilton's Parksides won the fourth game and the series from Lakesides by a saore of 4 tn 9. Lakesides won the frst game, but Parksides took the last three by decisive margins. In six years of competition the tity chamylon ship has heen won hy ine Maj eague five times. L pi night's game was the hest of the series. Parksides had & four- run lead going into the sev- enth, hut Lakesides managed tn score two in the eighth. After that Grace Childs was invincible. Lakesides could not solve Miss Childs' delivery and they could on- ly garner four hits. "Billy" Gilding was the big noise with the bat for Yarxgsides, getting two hits In four times at bat. Marge Dunlop pulled the fea- ture play when she stopped a line drive from Miss Butwell's hat when the bases were loaded, The Parksides showed the results o} good coaching, their team work- ing like a machine, and Fred Hamilton, the Osler pilot, deserves credit, Tomorrow night East York, Riv- erdale champions, meet Populars, from the Beach League, in the in- termediate semi-finals.

Their fielding and hit- ting with men on the bases was the big factor in their win. The "Lizzies" on the other hand, could do nothing right. Errors at critical moments and the slow fielding of the bunts by the infielders was their downfall, while their hitters fell down in the pinches time after time. The twirling of Kitchen and the hitting of "Red" Hollingsworthwere the high lights of the game, The re- turn game will be played Thursday afternoon at Stanley Park, Toronto.

After more or less walking through all the opposition that local aggregations could furnish for them, the champions of the Big Four will stack up against the first out-of-town threat that they have ed this Guelph are reputed to be a strong team in the field with a more or less mediocre battery. If so, the Rowden- Young-Hubbell-Gummow outfit of swatsmiths should put in a very good evening's work with the willow, Local fans are confident that the utton-Rowden battery will reduce the Westerner's offensive efforts to a minimum, eet The return game will be played on Friday or Saturday in Guelph. With Belleville playing here on Saturday, Gord Young will not be able to take in.the journey without seriously jeopardizing his hardball usefulness against the Nationals which he will hardly choose to do, "Ike" Sutton is due to leave for Kingston by Sept. 15. It is to be hoped that the locals get through two or three rounds before the Queen's star returns to the scenes of his gridiron activities. He has been the big source of strength to the Chev, machine all summer, Last year Chevs. eliminated Guelph in handy fashion. Perhaps history will repeat, On the dope it should do that very thing. . Last year Gord Young slid into a spike holding down one of the hassocks in his endeavour to pilfer a base and suffered a painful injury to his thigh which greatly reduced his usefulness on succeeding games. Gord will watch where he slides this year, The Intermediate football team appears to be in for a smart season. There were thirty-five candidates at the work-out last night under the watchful eye of Bill Pound doing gridiron calisthenics. Losing the kinks by easy stages is all that will be practised for the first week or so. Pasing the pigskin, giving it the odd hoof and track-work is the order, Pound, who last year coached Chatham Intermediates and is a for mer Queen's man looks to be the right fellow for the tutelage job but he says he won't have the time. At any ratc he will be out every night as professor until he makes up his mind, Jack Allison, who played on the line for Camp Borden seniors last year made his appearance and should be a big help. He will be in the city for the season and is in fair condition right now. Dave Harding's team of last year is pretty well broken up according to reports. Alex Park and Gord Young had the spirals working to a nicety for so early in the year. Park, the ex-Argo quarter and halfback is a pretty punter when he reaches his form. Track work is the essential thing for condition and there isn't a player on the squad who can't stand lots of it. Some of the boys who thought it was hard last night don't know the half of it. Wait till the uniforms are distributed and you have to carry the extra poundage around the oval. The softball hounds and others who have cantered around the park all summer and then gaily headed for the lake changed their schedule and dragged the weary body home after it was all over. Coach Pound stressed the fact that it was useless to make an ap- pearance every other night and expect to get into condition." Every night without a skip, or--the gate. Jack Bond loped around for a mile or two and came in breathing like a baby with the whoops. Out of that crowd, the officials are confident they can mould a machine worthy of tle Intermediate ranks. The lacrosse and ball teams that are meeting with so much success under Walt Schultz, Stan Burgoyne, George Munro and the rest of the hard-working executives were new aggregations this year. Hard work alone is the answer. At Camp Borden last year Dave Harding and Samson took a green bunch of prospective aviators and made them into a team that heat every entry in the senior O.R.F.U. last year, including Balmy Beach once, p Harding collected everyone around the camp that had experience at the game and found that he was still short about five from a team. After that' he simply picked out all the big boys, stuck them in the line told them that the other guy looking at him was an enemy and relied on his brains for the rest, And out of it all came a team that played championship foothall at the end of the schedule, If they had started a little sooner Balmy Beach might have met heavier opposition. The day before their first game the team practised from six in the morning until six that evening with meals and rest in between. We're in favor of that! Park is an experienced pivot-man. Bond will strengthen the back- field and Norm Kilmer is a real outside wing. There are several others with talent that will not be known until the team gets down to real hard work. Westsides, St. Catharines or whoever forms the loop will know they were in a game after visiting this city, Mike Rodden, Hamilton tutor and creator of Punts and Passes in the Globe is about ready for action. If the Leafs drop a few more games Toronto is out and then the Queen City can listen to football chatter, Thomas Nisby, Oshawa entry in the Wrigley Marathon today left at five o'clock this morning for the battle ground-no-sea. Nisby's number is 262. Twice six is twelve, and twice twelve is 24, add one and you have 25. Stick Grand beside it and you have the first prize. Maybe there's something in the number, Nisby passed the test at the Arena in Toronto yesterday and was hued y in perfect physical condition. The water is ice-cold and some of the swimmers yesterday were decidedly pessimistic about their chances. One chap from Missouri stayed in 35 minutes and declared he wouldn't stand it another minute for all of Wrigley's millions and a gum-box thrown in. Nisby and his trainer Howard Pringle have been hoping for cold water all along. The boy has a hide tough " a pine-apple, Don't be at all surprised if he finishes the' grind. It's asking a lot to be in the money, but he's quite confident of completing the course, The largest outsof-town contingent of the year is due here next Saturday when Belleville comes for the final C.O.B.L. game. The Nationals have had the greatest following in the league all year and there were not a few who rather pas hib | Oshawa to take the verdict Saturday. Even Walt Schultz is undecided whether to send Matthews right back at the Gerowmen or give Duke Dainty another chance, "Duke" would sacrifice a whole year's salary, anybody's, to finish on top. Kellar, Jones and Young were the only locals who failed to hit safely in the last game. Young fanned no less than three times, was safe-on a fielder's choice and drew one pass. Bad business for the leading home-run hitter in the league who also leads in extra base hits all down the line. Jones also fell down in the hitting. Making the paths on a fielders choice, drawing a walk, striking out twice and rolling to Utronki on his last appearance. Nipper led the league for a week or so during the regular campaign and is due to return with a big bat. Chick O'Neil who would have graced a senior uniform this year is lost for next season. The ex-McCormick star is leaving the city in a few days for greener fields. Sitting around all year waiting for the finals of the junior O.B.A.A. and then only pitching one game before elimination was a big disappointment. Nipper Jones may accompany him on his departure. The senior osse team will go to Brampton Saturday for the final game of the schedule. St. Simons got a lucky break Weston being booked for them.

Sept. 5.--Jess Doyle, whose previous appearances in re- cent games have been brief and disastrous to the cause of the Leafs went the full distance against the Royals at Maple Leaf Stadium yes- terday afternoon, and won a ball game. The other members of the Toronto team gave Doyle excellent support both in the field and at the bat, and they had little trou- ble winning by a score of 8 to 2. The Leafs improved their posi- tion slightly as a result of the vic- tory. They are still in third place, close behind Rochester, who were ousted from the top rung yester- day by Buffalo, who defeated the Red Wings in a double header. Falk, the big Montreal south- paw, had nothing that the Leafs didn't take a liking to, and before he retired in favor of a pinch-hit- ter in the sixth, the ball game was well in the Toronto hag. Nicholls, who pitched the last two innings for Montreal, subdued the locals nicely and did not allow a hit.' Shinners Starts Leafs to Victory The game provided a few fea- tures that kept thef ans interest- ed. The Royals earned an easy run off Doyle in the opening frame and took the lead, but it proved a short-lived advantage. Shinners, thef irst batter to face Falk in Toronto's half of the second, drop- ped the ball over the left field fence to tie the score, and that punch seemed to provide the spark that animated the O'Hara aggrega- tion, and drove them to taking further liberties with the fork- hand delivery of the Royal hurler. In each of the next four frames the Toronto team pelted the ball furiously, and made their Nite count. Falk issued five passes, and they contributed to the run scor- ing. The Leafs made 11 hits, 6 of them for extra sacks; stole four bases, sacrificed runners along 4 times and were assisted by seven bases on balls and three errors. 1t that wasn't enough to win the hall game, then Doyle's pitching, which seemed to get more effective as the game lengthened, supplied the other reason for the victory, Rabbitt Returns to Game Joe Rabbitt was hack in the game after a long lay-off, and he made his presenee conspicuous. In the sixth he led off with a double along the left field foul line, and the ball rolled to the far end of the big stand. Rabbitt drew up at second, but a minut: later he was waved the rest of the way around after Manager O'Hara had argued with the arbiters. Gaudette had returned the ball to Falk, but, without consulting the umpires, Falk tossed the ball into the Tor- onto dugout, when he noticed that it was bruised. Rabbitt showed his speed by beating out a bunt in the fourth and stealing second eleanly in the first inning, In the fifth inning, while the aviators from Michigan were eircl- ing over the field and making the air deafening with the roar of their engines, Bedore stole home while Hungling was at bat. Falk was taking a wind-up at the time, and Bedore raced in and slid safely be- fore Daly could tag him. BROCKVILLE WINS TITLE BY BEATING SMITH'S FALLS Brockville, Sept 4.--Playing be- fore a large audience Saturday af- ternoon, Smith's Falls lost 10 Brockville, who became champ- ions of the Eastern Ontario Base- ball League. The final score was 11 to, 10, but the decision was not attained until the tenth inning. The score was twice tied by the vis- tors, who overcame Brockville's leads in the fifth and ninth, but the locals had the punch to win out in the extra. Moffatt for Smith's' Falls and Stotts, the local pitcher were both in good form. WALKERVILLE OUSTS GUELPH MAPLE LEAFS Galt, Ont., Aug. 4.--The Inter- county's hopes of winning the Sen- ior Ontario championship passed out of the picture here this after- noon when Walkerville Chicks de- cisively trimmed the Guelph Leafs in the third game of their seri' § Eddie Marchand, the Border Cit ace, shutting out Dick Carrol's crew, 6 to 0. Despite the post- ponement from yesterday a crowd of over 3,500 fans viewed the ex- hibition, which was considered ex-' ceptionally good. Walkerville will now meet Strathroy, with the first game at the Border on Thursday and the return Saturday. Juvenile Jabs The Leafs won last might--but were they the better team on the night's play? However, they got the breaks-- and that's what counts. The Eagles still think they can defeat the Leafs and are going to prove it Thursday night. Its either "do or die'--nowm watch their dust. ' Manager Jacobi switched his team considerably and got results. The Eagles had two subs in the infield, Myers at first, Toppings at short and Kitchen in the outfield. What will they do with a regular team? The Leafs better not celebrate till they play their second game. The next game will start at 6.30, players are rejuested to report at the field at 6.15, so as to start the game on time. Thursday night--and how! Chicago Wins from Pirates Hargreaves' Wild Heave in 94 Decides the lssue--Phillies Win New York, N.Y. Sept. 4. -- XA wild throw in the ninth inning 'by Hargreaves, who was attempting double play give Chicago th winning run and the final game of the Pittsburg series today, 9 to 8, Twice the Cubs had a commands ing lead, but on each occasion the Pirates deadlocked the tally, and as the contest entered the ninth inning the score was tied at 8-8. Long hits by Stephenson, Grimm and Hartnett accounted for st of the Chicago runs. Step¥enson and Grimm hit home runs with a runner on base. Comosky led the attack for the Buccaneers, with & home run and two singles. He drove in six of the Pirates' eight runs. . Phillies Beat Giants Cy Williams' home run with ond on and two out in the ninth inning gave the Phillies an 8 to 7 victory over the Giants in the second game of a double-header at Philadelphia, after New York had taken the op« ener, 9 to 4. Jack Scott, put in the box In the last inning to hold the Glants* one run leaq., gained while Fitn« simmons was pitching, threw a ball Williams liked, after Xlein had singled, and Willias promntiy sent the ball over the right fisld fence.
