BASEBALL BOWLING TENNIS THE SPORTING WORLD LACROSSE SOCCER GOLF, Etc, N orth Bay Eliminated In Connaught Cup Race Regiment Qualify To Meet Winners of Hamilton District By Score of 3--1 In Hard Fought Game--Oshawa Accorded Splendid Reception The Ontario County Regiment football team, representing the Osh- awa and District Football Associa- tion, left last Friday night for North Bay, to play in the Connaught Cup competition, against the North Bay, C.P.R. Athletic Club. The game was staged at 11 o'clock Saturday morn: ing, at Amelia Park, before a record crowd. The home team started the ball in motion, and broke away towards the visitors goal. The attempt, however, was broken by the solid defence of the regiment, after which mid- field play ensued. Several times the fast forwards of the home team made dangerous attacks on their op- ponents' goal; ajd after hard fight- ing the North y team succeeded in scoring a gapl. The long all night journey ¢ the soldiers was making itself pvident. However, about half way throwgh the first half, the soldier got heated up and began to settle Yo in real earnest and made severd hard attempts for goal, but were jet with strong op- position from th| home defence, and failed to find tl nets. Up to half time the play wg of a fast and ex- citing nature. jt half time the visitors were befnd 1-0. Win in $cond Half. The soldiers kiked off the second half, and midfie} play ensued for some time, until the Regiment's forwards, suppo by their half backs, made a song attack and succeeded in laming the ball be- tween the posts. his livened things up considerably afi the Northerners pressed hard todrds the visitors' goal, play centdng around the visitors' goal, an the home team getting several aner kicks. The Regiment's defend worked hard and succeeded in cleang the ball. The half backs travelll up the field and again the forwar| pressed on and tusseled hard arond the goal and again the net wa bulged. From this stag on both teams worked hard, shoing fine combina- tion work. The py went from one end of the field tthe other, in des- » %rate endeavors ) score, and both goal keepers exceed themselves by saving some womrful shots. The home team begamo show lack of training in the cling stages of the game, not having e pep with which they d,nd the combi tion work of the :giment began to take effect. Teunminutes before time was up the last goal was se- cured by the Regiment and full time saw the Regiment leading 3 to 1. The play all through the game was exceptionally clean, and both teams showed some surprising exhibitions of soccer, Entertained to Dinner In the evening the teams were en- tertained to dinner by Mayor Jno. Ferguson. The Mayor addressed the boys, welcomed the visitors to North Bay, and expressed his keen interest in the game, After mentioning the great indus- trial centres of Southern Ontario, and the flourishing condition of Oshawa, he began to give the hoys a keen insight into the North Coun- try, its conditions and inhabitants. He also gave a brief history of North Bay, which 37 years ago was not on the map. So interested were the boys, that the Mayor showed them the first deed of the town dated 1885, showing how he bought 288 acres of land for exactly $288 "now" he said "the land, which you are now on, is worth $1,000 a foot," he said, that the North and South were fast coming into closer relationship with | each other, and that the imaginary line dividing them would soon be no more. Several membesr of the teams spoke, expressing their views of the athletic game, their gratitude of kindness and about the spirit of comradeship that existed among them. After a most enjoyable day and evening, the boys left for home on Saturday night, with a favorable impression of North Bay. The team will now play in the semi finals against the winners of the Hamilton Dale Retaliate On The Fittings Foley Failed Last Night--Mallett Twirled Good Ball For The Victors After being blanked for the first four innings Cedar Dale hammered out a victory over Textile last eve- ning in a Town Baseball League event 65 to 4. Foley, who shutout the Dale on Friday night, attempted to repeat the performance and as the game progressed, it looked very much as if he would succeed, How- ever, on entering the fifth, Manager Petley's crew uncorked two two-bag- gers and two singles which, together with an error and a passed ball, Winner of Enlow Golf Competition To Be Known Here The Enlow Trophy golf compeli- tion will be decided in the cour:a of a few days, it having reached the finals. Fred Carswell, by defeating H. Smith, has earned the right of being one of the finalists, while the other will be decided in a match Le- tween 8, Irwin and W, P. Knight. The draw vor the Cowan medal h:s been made and the first round mu t be played not later than July 10, The draw is as follows: ' W. Davidson v. G, Jacobs, F. Carswell v. (i, Evans, D. Carlyle v. R.

Foley, who had during the first | four frames, whiffed no less" than seven of the Police Villagers became | unsteady and his offerings, which had | hitherto been a complete puzzle, ap- parently had nothing on but the cover, The Textile entered the fray with | hopes of crawling out of the cellar position and but for the bad break in| the fifth they would have exchanged | places for the lowly station in the! league. The brand of ball was un-| usually good with only one or two wild pegs to mar the proceedings.| One occurrence which was not on the program happened in the first half of the fourth. Harry Rorabec sum- moned up sufficient courage to at- tempt to steal home after two men were down and two strikes were rung in against the batter. The ball which was being delivered to the batter reached the plate first and Rorabec was nabbed but the force of the collision between Bar- riage, the Dale catcher, and the run- ner produced an antagonistic spirit and the pair forgot temporarily they were on a baseball diamond. Inter- ference by the Umpire and players restored peace and quietness and the game proceeded. The players were not benched for their misconduct but 'District and Sergt.

HOLD TENNIS TOURNEY The courts of St. Gregory's Ten- nis Club weré the scene of much aec- tivity on the afternoon of Dominion Day, the members turning out in large numbers and holding a tourna- ment for which prizes were given. Entensive preparations had been made for a visit by the Lourdes Tennis Club, of Toronto, but the trip was postponed on account of rain until a later date. Nevertheless a most enjoyable afternoon was spent and following the tournament refreshments were served on the lawn. The winners of the tourna- ment were Miss T. Vernon and Mr. Nelson Whinfield. Hopers on Dominion Day but to-mor- row, weather permitting, the boys will accomplish what they had hoped to do on the holiday. Whether Pat- ton, Foley, or "Teddy" Gallagher will work, is a question, Gallagher will be needed for the big battle at Alexandra Park next Saturday with Cobourg and manager Booth may de- cide to use Patton, Oshawa will enter the eastern town with both eyes open and every precaution will be taken to avoid a repetition of last year's surprises when Port Hope forced Oshawa to play an extra game to claim the championship. Central League games morrow are: Oshawa at Port Hope, Belleville at Peterboro, Leaside at Cobourg, Bowmanville at Linsday. for to- Rain Interferes With all arrangements completed and rinks present from Peterboro, Cobourg, Port Hope and four Tor- onto clubs, besides many others, rain prevented the annual tourna- ment of the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club from taking place Saturday. Had ideal weather favored the howlers the Oshawa Club would have had a record attendance, A number of Toronto clubs, besides those who did send down rinks, stated their intention of being re- presented, However, to-morrow (Wednesday) has been selected as the day when the tournament will be held and it is hoped to have almost as many rinks as would have been present on the holiday. Bowling will com- mence at 9 o'clock and both com- petitions will be decided before mid- night if possible. The greens are in better shape than ever before this season and the turnament will be it is expected, up to the standard of previous years, and possibly better The heavy rain of Saturday morn- ing did not prevent the bowlers from indulging in friendly games during Oshawa Goes to Pt. Hope Wednesday Rain prevented Bert Booth's squad the afternoon and evening, quite a { number of the visiting rinks remain- {ing to enjoy the afternoon with Osh- lawa bowlers and get some idea as to the peculiarities of the local | greens. All greens were in use and | the number taking part would create With Tournament Ask Council (Continued from Page 1) from Oshawa to Torento which is of any practical use, and that is the one which ig despatched on train No. 9 which leaves here at 8.45 p.m, This mail is delivered in Toronto first thing the next day. A supple- mentary Toronto mail is despatched about one hour later leaving on train No, 18 going east at 9.40 p.m, and being transferred to train No, 19 arriving in Toronto about 6 o'clock next morning, This mail is usually delivered in Toronto during the fore- noon of that day hut it is despatched from the Post Office here so closely following the direct mail on No. 9 that it is of very little practical use, "During the day there is only one mail despatched for Toronto, this going in the locked bag on train No, 27 leaving here at 2,21 p.m. but this mail has no special use except for special delivery and letters going to hotels and newspaper offices, etc., as it does not arrive in Toronto in time for ordinary delivery the same after- noon, At the present time with day- light saving in effect in Toronto it is not of any use even for special de- livery to business offices closing at 5 o'clock. "It seems to us what 1s badly needed is a mail despatched direct to Toronto, via train No. 19 which is the Montreal to Toronto mail train and which leaves here at 4.44 a.m. daily, The contractor who carries the mails from the railway station to the Post Office has to meet this train to take off mail bags, and there should therefore be no additional trouble or expense in that connection, This mail would ge a great convience to the general public, as the late afternoon mail from Toronto is sort- ed and delivered to box holders about 7.30 each evening, and in case of urgent matters replies could be writ- ten and mailed any time during the evening with assurance of reaching the addressees in Toronto next morn- ing. It would also provide a connec- tion with early morninz mail trains north and west of Toronto. "Another equally important need is th despatch of a regular mail on train No. 29 which leaves here at 10.17 a.m. and arrives in Toronto about noon. This would permit busi- ness firms who get their mail at the | Post Office first thing in the morning to reply to. important matters and of Central Leaguers from taking athe impression that an actual tourn- | get replies delivered in Toronto the fall out of Johnny Rowden's Port | ament was being held. | same day. "While we are gure this matter is one of general interest to the com~ munity we might say that we feel very keenly in our own business the effect of the inadequate service, We are operating our printing plant on a night and day basis and we have several very large customers in Tor. onto, We require to mail them proofs of their work as rapidly as pos- sible and we have gone to the trouble lately of making special arrange- ments for putting our letters on the early morning train (No, 19), but this is not very convenient as the station is a mile and a quarter from the centre of the town, and we do not think we should have to do this, We have even gone to the expense of sending a messenger to Toronto on one of the morning trains on a num- ber of occasions, This would not have been necessary if there were regular mails on No. 19 and No, 29 as we think there should be, Pay Workmen (Continued from Page 1) We received tenders as follows for storm sewer pipe: J.
