OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, World News Trunks League Champs Trounce Peterboro 13-0 Wretched S Also Given By Petes to Heckman, Who Was ow Form--Williams Pitched Sensationally Backing and Given Great Belleville are the 1922 champions of the Central Ontario Baseball League and there is no disputing the fact that they are real champions. Their clean-cut victory over Peter- boro at Alexandra Park yesterday afternoon proved it conclusively. The final score of 13 to 0 does not indicate the comparative strength of the two teams as the Petes are capable of much better baseball than the exhibi- tion they displayed before the huge crowd of some three thousand fans who were present from all sections of the Central League circuit. Twenty- six hundred paid admissions were re- corded, almost equalling the record set at Cobourg when the first section of 'the schedule was decided. The result of the game sent Belleville's supporters into ecstasy of delight while gloom hovered over the Peter- boro section of the grandstand. Give Petes Oredit The Petes were outclassed as the score indicates but Jake Solomon's men were off color to put it mildly. The fielders, both outfield and infield, looked bad, so much so that the fans once again began to figure how the Electrical City aggregation suc- ceeded in trimming Oshawa in the play-off for the first half title. How- ever while spectators took the op- portunity of roasting Jake while the game was in progress, the majority of them cannot help but admige the Peterboro pilot for guiding his team to the finals. Starting out the sea- son he had difficulty in rounding out a ball team; then later on with pros- pects none too bright for the league honors, he unhesitatingly released three of his infielders because of in- fraction of the rules of amateur base- ball, Despite this additional trouble he not only captured the first section but made a strong attempt to land the second half, Williams Sensational That Belleville are superior to the Petes in all departments has been shown in the three game series, In Belleville a week ago, Williams, the brilliant southpaw of the Raflroaders, blanked the Liftlock City aggrega- tion 3 to 0 and while losing to Peter- boro in the latter city last Saturday, he held the Petes to three hits. Yes- terday afternoon, he sent Peterboro home with a pair of safeties, one of which was a bunt which Johnston beat to first. In the nine innings he fanned 'fifteen Peterboro batsmen, walking only three mon, the first one being intentional. His perform- ance was of a sensational character and local fan® are of the opinion that Hillerests will have considerable dif- ficulty in solving his offerings. Speed and curves combined held the Petes helpless and despite the fact that the mighty T.A.B.A. champions have es- tablished a reputation of being ter- rific clouters, he may turn "Nip" Dwan's clan away as he has done Meagher's hit. Casey hoisted to right field but Burgoyne dropped the ball, The 'latter however, caught Meagher going to second, Another trio of counters were registered in the fourth on three hits and three er: rors, Weir doubled, W. Mills and H. Mills singled, Collins booted J. Williams' infield hit and Johnston muffed Meagher's grounder, Holy- man also helped things along by jug- gling "Lefty" Williams' hit to short, As the score piled up, the Petes lost heart and Heckman gave up all thoughts 'of attempting 'to save the game. He sent the ball over the plate with nothing on it but the cover and the Belleville gunners helped themselves, The Trunks got three- men on bases in the 'fifth without the semblance of a hit, Hag- erman rolled to first and Long tos- sed him out to Heckman who covered the bag. Willlams got to first on Holyman's error but was nipped going to second by Swanston, Ross hoisted to Bur- goyne but Weir got on through Holy- man's error and a score seemed immi- nent but W,. Mills forced Weir at second. Four Hits for H, Mills The Trunks registered once in the sixth on singles by H. Mills, Meagher and Casey. Their next pair develop- ed in the seventh on solos by Ross, Weir and J. K. Williams. In the ninth Belleville tallied once on three clean safeties, Vernon Weir and Harry Mills were the heavy hitters, the former gathering three hits in five trips to the plate while Mills hit safely four times in six attempts, The remaining batters each secured two hits with the exception of Hager- man and *'Lefty" Williams, who fail- od to connect once. Peterboro had one or two opportunities to score but their base running was about en a par with their fielding. Holyman and Johnston got the Petes' two hits, one of which was a bunt towards third base and the other a clean ein gle over first. Belleville were favorites to win the championship but it was quite unexpected to see them win by such an overwhelming score. The new champions will travel to Toronto on Saturday to meet Hillerests and Cen- tral League supporters, including members of the Peterboro team will wish the Quinte City nine every suc- cess.

Petes' Poor Fielding Al Heckman, who it was thought | by many of his admirers, would carry | the C.O0.B.L. pennant to Peterboro this year, was away below the form he has shown all season. His control was not good and he was hit hard. sixteen safe hits being garnered off his delivery. He was accorded wretched support and those who were under the impression that Oshawa had the most inconsistent team in the league were obliged to change 'their views. Oshawa turned in some weird exhibitions during the schedule but not one of them was in the class of that presented to the fans by Peterboro yesterday. Eight er- rors were chalked down against them while poor judgment on the part of the fielders was sufficient to disheart- en the most loyal supporters to be found anywhere. Holyman at short for the losers booted four ch while the other four misplays were divided between Johnston, Heckman, Wolfe and Long. At times Heckman showed something like his true form, particularly in the second frame when he fanned the side with apparent ease. In the sixth and eighth innings he struck out two of the three men, but between the bright flashes, the Belleville batters did their work effectively.

Sporting Paragraphs The annual athlefic meet of the Oshawa High School 18 being held today, having commenced at 9 o'- clock. It had been arranged for vesterday but owing to the Central Ontario League championship game a postponement was necessary. The Inter-Collegiate meet will take place here next Wednesday. Central League officials were more than pleased with the large attend- ance at yesterday's championship game, There were twenty-six hun- dred paid admissions to the ball park considering it was on Wednes- day afternoon with the factories all working, it was a fine showing. Had the game heen played on a Saturday afternoon the paid attend- ance would easily have reached the 3,600 mark, Jake Solomon took his defeat smiling as he has always done and when one fan began roasting his team, he calmly replied, "Some one has to lose" and he was right, After two strenuous games in a week, not a few fans predicted either team was liable to blow and the Petes were elected, Heckman was given a rough pas- sage by the Belleville sluggers and opinions were varied as to whether or not Kirn might have checked the new champions with his slow ball. But with Williams pitching sensa- tionally, very few teams could get runners on bases with regularity. The Indian. had wonderful control and oceans of speed. In commenting on the result of the Oshawa-Hillcrest series, last year, newspapers of this circuit pointed out that Oshawa had made the poerest showing of any C. 0. B. L. team figuring in the O. B. A. A.J finals, but the Grand Trunks will] General Motors Golf Contest H.

He was much impressed with Williams' perform- ance.
