It is guite safe to say that had Parkdale been the visiting team on Saturday, the Queen City foot- hallers woull-not have had such an easy victory, Tackling a Feature Coach Fred Carswell had eighteen students in uniform and worked them in .to the best advantage, Prob- ably the most outstanding feature of the locals' style of play was their booting and tackling. While they had a much easier task than with Parkdale, their line was impregna- ble, preventing their opponents from making many dangerous gains Every one tackled. well and no in- Juries were reported, Several spec- tacular plays were made which prov- ed conclusively that before the sea- pon terminates, the locals will have a real smooth, working line, Locals Superior ¢ The lack of experience was very «pronounced in the Belleville squad, it being their first game of the sea- gon, They gave their worst exhibi- tion in the first half when they fumbled practically everything that game to' them. At the end of the half, the Belleville coach went after them hard and the third quarter saw them playing a stronger game which, -however, did not stop. the Oshawans from rumning the score up.from 20 to 42. Right. from the outset, the winners looked to be the superior team but the Quinte City lads can be counted upon to give a better account of themselves when the return game is played in Belle- ville next Saturday. Half Time Score 20 to 5 It was enly two minutes after play commenced that Al Williams carried the ball across for a touchdown: Tom Bouckley converted, giving Oshawa six points. A minute later 'Wilson Clarke added another point: Beoring a rouge. Williams made a nice run, going around the end of the Belleville line and making a big gain before being downed. Norman Irwin then dashed through the vis- itors' line for another touch which was also converted, making the score 14. Hubbell made a pretty run, nearly succeeding ip carrying the ball "across. - Irwin secured another touchdown when he hurdled the Belleville line, landing the ball well over. Just before the close of the half, Belleville intercepted a pass and Watts carried the ball across for the visitors' first touch. The score at the interval was 20 to 5.

Belleville's faculty of coming up from the rear failed in this case, and the home team scored | the opening run, an unusual procedure | [Sporting Paragraphs Lindsay Post:--Lindsay baseball men had a call yesterday from Mr. F. BE. Ryder, of Brockville, who fol- lows the occupation of a commercial traveller during the fall and winter but is playing manager 'of the Brock- ville baseball team in the summer months, This year Brockville appar- ently had a classy team and succeed- ed in winning the Grenville-Leeds Lea- gue. Next season the League hopes to join the O.B.AA, and have the winners play off with the Central On- tario winners, Mr, Ryder intimated that Brockaille hoped to line up Jack Williams, the Indian pitcher of Belle- ville, for next season, The meeting which was previously called for the organization of the Y, M. C. A, Bowling League, on Wednes- day, October 25th, has been postpon- ed until Friday, October 27th, on ac- count of the local play being on at the Regent theatre in aid of the hos- pital. fund, Every "Y" member in- terested in bowling is urged to be on hand, The Oshawa Football Club demon- strated that they can play other games equally as well as soccer. In the open- ing gdme last night, they romped away with the Metropolitans by a good score, Casualties were numerous in the ranks of Metros. Cecil Hann, who started to pitch for the Bankers against the Fiano Tuners last night, succeeded in doing what he attempted to do. He deliver- ed the ball to the opposing batters just to their liking, and what they did to his offerings was shown by the score, Charlie Peacock's clan gather- ing 29 runs in a single frame.

The report is as fol- lows: "The problems which faced your committee at the first of the season were, as I have no doubt this Exe- cutive -knows, many, The financing of uniforms and equipment was made possible only by the uhqualified suc-- cess of the 24th of May Meet, We recommend that this same day be made an annual affair and that the opening hall game be played then. The rounding out of & team and the ascertaining of the playing positions of the various athletes for which they were hest suited was a factor in the loss of many games in the first half of the schedule. The con- dition of the diamond at the outset of the season was far from being in keeping with the class of hall played in the League. The upkeep of the grounds was a cause of no little wor- ry to your committee and we strong- ly urge that next season a compet- ent groundsman be put in charge with renumeration thus taking the responsibility off the committee, We would also point out that it is of the highest importance that the laying out of a new diamond he taken up with the Agricultural Society in so far as drainage and position is con- cerned this Fall.

About 30 members of the Club were present for the occasion. Early in the afternoon a number of friendly games were played on the courts after which the party as- sembled in the multigraph room, Mr. W. E, Clarke, president of the Club, presided and presented the prizes to the winners. Miss Harper received a sterling silver medal, having won the ladies' singles competition, while Mr. Walter Kilburn was award- the men's singles, The medals were donated by Mr. Clarke, An- other presentation was made apart from the tenis trophies. Miss Hazel Clarke was given a handsome berry bowl in honor of her approaching marriage. Mr. Clarke made the presentation on hehalf of the staff. The banquet which followed was daintily prepared, the tables heing heavily laden with tempting viands. After the good things had disappear ed, dancing was indulged in, the Ideal Orchestra furnishing the music. The event was immensely enjoyed hy everyone present and the members are looking forward eagerly to an- other season.

Carlyle exhibited the form which he displayed last year when his team mates fought their way up near the top of the league. Williams fielded well and made an excellent showing. The teams: -- Williams: Ward, ss; Snowden, ¢; cy, ss; Miners, Langmaid, 2b; lock, 3b. Bankers: Butler, 3b; O'Neill, 1b: D. Thompson, 2b; E. J. O"Reilley, If; Munce, ss; Dickie, ¢c; White.! cf; L.

AY.P.A. trotted out a smooth bunch of! youngsters and had Greene, their! pitcher, had good control there is no doubt but that the Anglicans would have started out the season with a win. Greene pitched splendidly for the first two stanzas'but in the third he lost control, allowing his oppo-| nents to score. By issuing three or! four charities in a row, the "Y" were given several runs. A.Y.P.A. looked | to be the best of any in regard to fielding and with good twirling, they would make most of the teams hus- tle to beat them. , Petley started to pitch for the "Y"" but his offerings were no puzzle to the Anglicans. Harold replaced him on the mound in commencing the second frame. The line-ups were: AY.PA.: Williams, If; Marks, 1b; Gower, ss; 1b; Fishleigh, Carlyle, p; Clan- ef; Martyn, If; Hamlyn, rf; Pol- 'Greene, 7 Umpires--Patton "and Miamont, Ra i ---- ------ A Goose Free for your Thanks- giving Dinner.
