Much interest wns centred in the game as it was the first appearance of the teams in a scheduled game this sea- son and a good crowd saw the con- test, The Textiles used fourteen players Manager Tharan working them all inorder to get a line on their ability .and Pittings used twelve players. Ostler in Form Ostler twirled a fine game for the winners, keeping the hits well sedt- tered and striking out seven men. The support accorded him was of a high order and the two errors made in the field were not costly. He has barrels of speed and will bear watch- ing during the league race. His con- tro good, not a hatter reaching on Your balls. Donnelly, who start- ed out for the Textiles, showed that he had something on the hall hut lacked control. Consequently he walked three batters, the first ona paving the way for the winners' first two runs' Three errors and another walk in the second gave Fittings another brace. In the third two hits and a walk added vue eounter and in the sixth and an error resulting in two more. By smart base running Petrie scored. the first run secured by the Textiles. He led off with a single, stole second and scored on a sacrifice hit. An error, a single and a dou- ble in the second resulted in a run and their third and last tally matur- ed in the fifth from a single and two sacrifice hits. Seven Hits Each Seven safeties were collected by each team but errors on the part of the losers' infield allowed Fittings to take a substantial lead. Charlie McDougall made the only two errors charged against Earle True's crew while Foley, Kellow, Chambers and Jarvis each contributed a misplay. Had the Textiles plaved airtight hall, the Fittings would have had a stiff proposition on their hands to nose out a vietory. The winners looked to be the strongest combination of the two and should furnish a fine hattle when they meet Chevrolet or « odar Dale." Donmelly, who started for the Textiles, promises to deliv- er some real goods before the season is far under way. His performance last night was good. Rorabec Made Good Harry Rorabee was on the receiv- ing end for Tharan's nine and he turned in a nifty game. He nipped two runners stealing third and his pegging to second was accurate. In the fifth with a runner on third, Kelso fanned but Rorabec dropped the third strike. The latter, how- efler, threw the batter out at first in time for Braund to get Ostler com- ing home. With lots of experience Rorabec should develop into a rat- tiling good catcher. He was one of the junior town leaguers of two years ago. A number of the juniors are making good in senior company which goes to show the necessity of a junior league every year. "Cisco" Garrow played left field for Fittings and he is still going strong. He scored two runs and in the fourth frame hammered a three 'bagger to deep right the ball rolling out on the track.

Peterboro Fans All on Toes for To-day's Contest Peterboro Examiner --iZxcitement is at fever heat in the old Central League circuit as a result of yester- day's doing, and with Oshawa sched- uled to meet the Petes at Riverside Park on Saturday afternoon it looks certain that new attendance figures will be rung up. Wednesday was a big day in the league race. Leaside and Peterborough, the two winners on Saturday, were both beaten, Lea- side dropping the Lindsay fixture by 9 to 5. Belleville nosed a victory at Bowmanville and Port Hope were the victims of the only landslide of the day, being walloped 11 to 0 at Oshawa. The victory will put the Oshawa gang right on edge for their game with the Petes here on Sat- urday, while the Solomon gang are anxious to get back some of the percentage they lost yesterday, and there wil be something doing every minute. The game is called for 3 o'clock, and there won't be much 2-11 100 at the plate; | vacant room in the stands when Um- pire Jack Rosevear of Port Hope, calls "Play ball!" Buzey Competition Held at Golf Links Oshawa golfers turned out in large numbers on Victoria Day to take part in the bogey competition and a fine day's sport was enjoyed. The competition was divided into two classes and suitable prizes were offered to the winmners. Henderson Bros. are still prominent among the leading players in the local club, Thomas Henderson winning the first class with W. J. Davidson, a close second. Mr. Davidson has recently moved to Oshawa and he has been given a warm welcome by local golfers. won third place in Class- 1. ond class Rev. C. R. dePgncier won the first prize, which was the only one offered in this section. A week from to-day Oshawa golfers will wisit the Rosedale links for an inter-club match with Rese- dale golfers, and an attempt will be made to add another victory to their list. Mississauga Golf Club were the first to be defeated by Oshawa a week ago and indications point to the present season being ome of the most successful ever experienced.

Oulette, although a trifle wild, was effective in the pinches, and had ten strike-outs, Maguire fanned seven Greybirds. It was a scrappy game, and Umpire Butler put Jones, Lea- side, out of the game in the sixth inning, Leaside continuing the game under protest.

By emphasizing the "don'ts" | the essentials of the swing stand out | in sharp relief. The writer hopes | that if any essentials have been miss- | ed in the previous articles they may | le covered in this one. Of all the faults which beset the | golfer, the greatest is a faulty co-op- eration between the hands and the body. When every muscle works | harmoniously from the hands to the feet there results what is called tim- | ing, -without which par golf i8 ims possible, The hands should dominate the | swing from its inception until its cbmpletion. They should have such control of the club that if necessary they could make the elub head de scribe an are in any plane. They should be masterful, assertive, com- pelling, and dictatorial, for what- ever power goes into the shot must of necessity go by way of them. A distinction has been drawn be- tween what are called initiatory movements and responsive ones. The hands initiate the swing and the knees, shoulders, etc., respond to the urge started by the hands. This a sound doctrine with perhaps certain qualifications. We know too well that the moment we lose con- tro} of the elub, the hands cease to function. The precaution fs this, that it is just possible and is often the case, to delay the movement of the body too long. The pictures show that the left knees of the stars bend exceedingly early in the swing, and any conscious attémpt to delay this movement until the club reaches the horizontal, will destory timing. This is not an uncommon sight, but is, however, not son common as the reverse, which is getting the body into the swing too quickly, or trying to do the work with the body. This is, however, not so common as the faults. In the up-swing the body attempts to start the swing, and in the down swing it gets ahead of the club and exerts its eflort far too soon. How often we hear, "Body in too soon." The player should place the emphasis on the hands, which should be the masters of the swing, and the knees, shoulders, ete. should be willing helpers, which en- ter into the swing fwillingly and ptly. it should be remembered that the swing of the star blends so harmoa- iously that it is impossible to tell when one movement starts and an- other finishes. This is attained large- ix, I think, by placing emphasis on the hands, which should always be active. Another prevalent fauit, one which also mili against fpro- per timing, is tensing of the muscles. Every player, and especially every beginner, must continually be on his but the members will soon be active- ly engaged in the warious compe- titions. Week after next the Enlow Trophy event will get under way and others will follow. The course is in perfect shape and the links ill be more popular than ever this year.

A.-Killoran PHONE 1083 34 SIMCOE N, A Message To Busy Women! On the one hand--- Mrs. Jones is "an old-fashioned shopper." When she hits the buy- ing trail, it becomes a war path. She goes everywhere, sces every- thing, asks countless questions, and leaves a wake of piled-up counters and worn-out sales folk behind her. Sometimes she wonders why a tired girl is a little snippy. Often th or grac 3 she suspects that merchandise is not shown to her with particular en- A She oh s why shopping days time. While on the other--- Mrs. Smith is 2 modern shopper. She makes up her mind what she is going to look at before she leaves the house. She knows just where she is going, how much she wants to pay, and where she'll find the right goods at the right prices. She sets out long after Mrs. Jones has left her house, and gets back in time for a cup of tea before getting supper. Everybody has a plea- sant word for her, and sometimes she feels that her own face wears a perpetual smile. To her shopping is a pleasure. 5 # 'mw - NOW HERE'S THE DIFFERENCE. Mrs. Jones, being old-fashioned, doesn't realize the walue--to her--of advertising. Mrs. Smith does. She makes a practice of reading the advertisements in her ease in her hope, she formulates her shopping program and lollows it out. She notes the things that interest her particularly, and plans to cut out waste motion, unnecessary steps and lost time. Axe you Mars. Jones--or Mus. Smith? Do you make the advertisements work for you? If mot, try it. Read the advertisements cavefully and regularly.
