o OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, 1922 ---- ARE Af ------ PAGE FIVE rting World News Fittings A ain Worst All Stars Ina Fast Game Score 8-2--Town League Will Be Wound Up Next Friday Fittings were again victorious In disposing of an All Star team last evening in a well played contest and one which provided much excitement for the spectators, although no cham- plonship depended on the result. The brand of baseball was all that could be desired although the losers made two or/ three costly errors which as- sisted Fittings in winning out 5 to 2. - The Stars secured their only two counters in the sixth frame when three singles, an error and a passed ball allowed Hipwell and Edgar to register, In the final stanza they again theratened to score but good fielding by the winners held the run- ners on the bags. Blanchard led off with a single, and Hipwell followed with a smart two base hit but the side was retired without further dam- age. In the fourth frame Wettlauf- fer hit for three bases after Critney was tossed out at first, only to be left stranded on third. The Stars were not dangerous up to this stage but from then on they mever failed to get men on bases, Real Champions Fittings showed themselves to he real champions by the manner in which they fielded their positions and also at the bat. was a gift when Murray fumbled Whattam's grounder, and when Al- ger hit to Morrison, tne latter booted the ball. Before he recovered it, Whattam had crossed the plate. In the fifth the winners registered four times. Browne, the Stars' third baseman, was one of the factors in their taking the big lead. He con- tributed two wild throws to first, letting two men get on and singles by Kelso and Jubb, followed by AT- ger's triple, Fittings were enabled to sew up the game. Ostler turned in one of his best games of the season, striking out five men and walking none. His sup- port was almost perfect. was also at his best but his support, while good at times, was not airtight. Murray has been one of the out- standing pitchers of the league throughout the season and kept his teammates right in the running until they clashed with the Fittings in the deciding game. The Town League will be brought to a close next Friday evening when Fittings and Cedar Dale will meet in the final contest. Fittings won the champipnship this year purely on their ability and their success was very popular with the fans. This is the first year that they have won the Miller Cup and much credit is due to their manager, Earle Trew, for the good judgment he has shown since the opening of the league.

"Ted" Gallagher and Derry Will Stage Battle Again To-day With the local Central League team again up to strength, the game with Cobourg this afternoon at Alex- andra Park promises to be one of the sensational variety. On the last appearance of the two teams here, the Motor Crew nosed out: the Easterners 2 to 1, in one of the fin- est pitchers' battles ever staged on a local diamond. Derry and Gal- lagher are slated to twirl for their respective teams again and as both clubs need a victory in the worst way, they are sure to exert them- selves to the utmost to put their teammates in the lead. The visi- tors are of about the same strength as the locals both in regard to field- ing and batting ability but as in the majority of games so far this year, it is impossible to select the win- ners. The team that gets the breaks should walk home ahead. Oshawa g Miss H. Luke 1, Miss M. Mackie Mrs.. Millichamp Mrs. G. Mec- Laughlin 0, Mrs. R. 8. McLaughlin Miss Cross 0.

Last Saturday, a large crowd was on hand while on Monday (Civic Holiday) the attendance hit the 2,000 mark. Hardwaremen Too Much for Painters A mighty struggle was in progress at Alexandra Park Thursday evening when the Painters and Hardware- men opposed each other in a nine in- nings baseball fixture. The Paint- ers were successful in preventing their antagonists from presenting them with a coat of kalsomine, by shoving across a run in the sixth frame. The final bulletin showed the count to be 11 to 1 for the hard- ware merchants. although had>it not been for Sam Virtue's heavy clout- ing and daring base running, the score might possibly have been a tie. For the losers Dan Howard was the outstanding player. His three base wallop featured and had he nbdt lost his wind at second base he would certainly have made the circuit.

How a Toronto amateur sport writer sizes up the Central League situation this year is contained in the follow- ing article, which appeared in the Star Weekly of last Saturday. "According to the Ontario Amateur Baseball draw, the Toronto finalists are scheduled to play off the winner of the Central Ontario League In their first semi-final, and outside fans claim that such a meeting will be the end of the Toronto's aspirations towards an Ontario championship, "Never in the history of Central On- tario has there been such interest in baseball as the race in the league this season has Inspired. There are eight teams in the league and with the ex- ception of one or two places the atten- dance figures are said to be 'as high and in some cases higher than in the Ontario cities on the Michigan and Ontario circuit. "One has only to visit any of the places Influded in the league to realize just how keen is the interest taken in the race. The fact that Cobourg, Oshawa, Belleville, Peterboro and Lindsay have teams that are almost equal in strength is the chief reason in the first half of the race, got out in the lead in the second half, while Leaside and Port Hope needs but little strengthening to make themselves strong contenders. "Heckman, the Peterboro pitching ace looks like the class of the league as a slab artist. This youth who was recommended to the Petes. by Shaugh- nessey pitched five games within eight days to enable his team to win the first half of the league and looks plenty good enough for a tryout in professional company. Oulette of the Lindsay Grey Birds and Gallagher of Oshawa, also look to be good enough pitchers to land their teams on the top of the heap. of Port | With these two as their supporters would have desired | "The showing made by Leaside in looked at with interest, but while Sporting Paragraphs Finnigan Hills, 'of hockey fame, showed a real come back on Wed- nesday when he took the mound against Cobourg, the league leaders. contest by a score of 3-2. Both teams played errorless ball and the exhibi- tion was one of the best ever wit- nessed on a Port Hope diamond. Piper started for Cobourg but was chased to the bench and replaced by Derry, Wednesday's developments in the Central League have increased the interest in the second half race, and the fans are now prepared to watch a thrilling fight for the honors, Bow- manville, by reason of their brilliant start in the second half, will be as good a drawing card locally as the other teams, Oshawa fans are not taking the recent defeats of their favorites seriously, as they are ex- pecting the Booth boys to come back with enough wins to serid them up to the top of the ladder. Oshawa's loss on Wednesday created the biggest surprise in Central League history. Having been up in the first division every year Central League enthu- s'asts apparently expect the Motor City crew to be contenders for the pennant again. Belleville Intelligencer: By the way Stan. Hagerman did the receiving for the rallroaders Saturday, in the ab- sence of "Peenie" Mills, who is yet quite ill with rheumatism, and he caught a very nice game too, but he'd rather play in the outfield when Tom Gloster is behind the bat, for Tom and Stan certainly do not, "smoke the same breath." Stan alleges that Mr. Umps informed him that he acted like a bush league receiver when he tried to camouflage balls into strikes, Stan didn't like that word "bush" and he experienced much difficulty in keeping the lid on until after the game. Later, --He told Gloster just What he thought of him in front of the Com- mercial Hotel on the Main street. Gloster listened.

They seem to have tried to emulate the Tor- onto Leafs in their games by one run. Maguire and Shaw have both pitched good ball, but errors and poor hitting have not helped them any. Keen Rivalry "If half the rumors floating around the circuit are true the league is not exactly amateur in its make-up, but these may be due to the keenness of the rivalry and the vividness of ima- ginations. It would certainly be unfor- tunate if anything were allowed to spoil the amateur status of the league and the healthy rivalry that exists. The Peterboro management has taken a stand which while it may imperil the chances of their team winning the league, will earn them the praise of the fans. The Petes won the first half with brilliant victories over Lindsay and Oshawa, largely due to Heckman's effective twirling, and their success must have gone to the heads of some of their players. In their first game with Cobourg in the second half three of their infielders refused to play um- less certain of their demands were met, and when the management said "noth- ing doing" it was necessary to im- provise three-quarters of the infield with Heckman on first. The result was that Cobourg won, 11 to 3. Things certainly looked bad for the Petes with a hard game to play against Belleville last Saturday; however, they came through with an 1l-inning victory, Heckman fanning 12 men.
