OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1922 PAGE FIVE ee ---- --. porting World News O.H.A. to Meet Early in Dec. Instructions Given for Teams In-| tending to Play in = | High School Rugbyists Lose to North Toronto Visitors Outplay Locals, Winning 25-1--Green and White Line Strong But Backfield Woefully Weak--Much Scoring in Opening Quarter North Toronto Collegiate Insti- tute's fast collection of rugbyists arrived in Oshawa on Saturday at noon and a few hours later hoarded the rattler for the Queen City bear- ing the scalps of the local collegiate institute, having defeated Principal Althouse's lads by a score of 25 to 1 It was the second reverse of the season for the locals and incidental- ly it was a Toronto team that turn- ed the trick before, At no time were the kids from the local knowledge emporium at all dangerous. The fast, tricky work of the visitors' backfield was too much for the green and white. Time and again the Toronto backs would catch the oval on the run and dash back through broken fields for 30, 40 and 50 yard gains, On the line the locals were at least the equal of the visitors. but the Oshawa backs and outside wings were woefully weak. The backs were also guilty of many fumbles and technical blunders. For instance on every kickoff the ath- lete doing the kicking would hoist the ball almost back to the visitors' goal line with the inevitable result that the fast Toronto backs would be enabled to run the ball back al- most to centre. The local backs also kicked too far for their outside wings. The outsides were also slow in getting up. The backs should kick higher, or, if that is im- possible, kick into touch with more frequency. If that had heen done Saturday the local collegians would have stood a good chance of win- ning. good start when they scored 17 points in the jnitial quarter. The good running of their halves was responsible for 'three touchddwns, Two rouges were also counted by Toronto, The locals braced slightly in the last three quarters and gave a good exMibition, At half time the score was 22 to ( in favor of Tor- onto, A try was made by the visitors in the second quarter, The locals held Toronto to three points in the third quarter while they managed to score a point on a rouge. A safe- ty touch and 'rouge gave Toronto its points, . The locals to gain their solitary counter ripped the Toronto line to shreds on successive bucks. They meandered up the field with- out a halt, When ten yards out they failed to go over in two downs. An outside kick was attempted and a Toronto back secured the ball but was downed for a rouge. Score at end of quarter 25 to 1, The locals held the Hogtowners scoreless in in the final frame, The lineups: Toronto--Flying wing, Fraser; halves, Cole, Davies and Harrison; quarter, Lee; centre, Mount; insides, Nelson and Houser; middles, Bailes and Paul; outsides, Shier and Mc- Murtry; subs., Atkinson, €Curstead, Shier, Miller, Wilson, Weeks and Smith, Oshawa -- Flying wing, Jamieson; halves, Clarke, Williams and Hub- hel; quarter, Bouckley; centre, Mof- fat; insides, Miller and Farewell; middles, Irwin and Brown; outsides, Grant and Mitchell; subs.; Irwin, Sporting Paragraphs | | | The problem of securing a coach {and a trainer has been left in the |hands of the Hockey Commissim, which is composed of R.

Williams was the pitching sensation of the Central League this past summer and while he will undoubtedly give other teams in the league much trouble next year, fans generally are pleased to learn that he will stay in this locality and assist in up- holding the standard of the C.0.B.L, While he turned down a nifty offer from Knotty Lee, it is believed that Williams is being treated handsome- ly by the Belleville Club and citizens of that city. The Trunks expect another .good pitcher to help Wil- liams and rumor has it that it will be Freddy Goyer. With two stars on the firing line, the Bay of Quinte aggregation should not be very ner- vous in going against any amateur team. According to the following article from the Belleville Ontario, there is evidently a possibility of Freddy Goyer returning to Belleville this year. The article says: "There have been so many stories going the rounds about Jack Wil- liams, the pitching ace of the Belle- ville Grand Trunks, that it is about time that they were set at rest. "Williams will be with the Belle- ville team next year. "Just now he is enjoying a few holidays, and is on a shooting trip. His father is in town. Jack himself is moving here soon and efforts to locate a house suitable for his family » are being made. "Williams has done his best for the team and the city and they in turn are out to show their gratitude for him by treating him well. Friends are working quietly but none the less effectively to get him settled here. "With respect to the chances of next year's team it is a long time yet until there will be any more outdoor baseball, but it can be said on good authority that there will be another good pitcher to help Wil- liams, most likely a good right- hander. Jack will not again be ask- ed to bear almost the whole load. The man who should be his assis- tant is, of course, Freddy Goyer, but this is quite uncertain. "There will almost certainly be some other changes on the line-up. By the way the talk is going around now there; will hardly be one of the infield lads who will not have to show speed to hold down the place some talk a few days ago of Skitch of Cobourg, the best second base- man in the league, coming here. There may also be changes in the made there this last season. Nobody is trying to knock any of in three from Galt, They are good, proved and they are all good enough sportsmen to admit that men can be found then they should be given places on the team. the presentation in fair success for and "grand hall" team, "some" affair." O.F.A. Methods Provincial Body's Rulings Need Improving--May Break Away Association which is affiliated with the O.F.A. has wound up the season as far as local clubs are concerned. Bowmanville and Claremont have played off for the championship but according to a ruling of the O.F.A. the games should not have been play- ed as there are a number of questions to be brought before the council What will be done no one is prepared to state. The Peterboro and District Association is also having its troubles, which goes to show that there is room for much improvement in handling soccer in Ontario. The Examiner commenting upon the situation in Peterboro says: "The ex- ecutive of the P. and D.F.A. wish it to be clearly understood that the Woollens--Quakers game as scheduled will be played in spite of the perfune- tory ruling or finding issued by the president and secretary of the O.F.A. Under ordinary circumstances any club has the right of appeal to the O.F.A,, but the directors of the P. and D.F.A. are determined that their de- cision shall be final. Last night's meeting drove another bolt into the coffin of the O.F.A. in so far as foot- ball fans in Peterborough are con- cerned. Not in any specified instance can it be shown where Peterborough (has benefited by their affiliation with the Toronto Football Clubs, who form the major portion of the O.F.A.

The games last night were, Spil- lers vs. Regimes, Dobson's Pets vs. East Ends, Stirlings vs. Padlars Tanks. Mr. C. E. McTavish direec- ted the first ball down the alleys to open the league while Mr. W. E. Gil- lott, president of the league made a few remarks regarding the outlook for the bowling season. Among the old boys noticed was '"'Scotty" Gar- reau who was one of the stars in the bowling league a year ago. The games will be continued on Friday night when Speed Fiends meet Boul- ders, Pen Pushers meet Y.M.C.A., and Dominion Bank meet Hot Dogs.

The Queen's Own team were accustomed to slightly different rules to those prevailing in the Oshawa League and the ground rules were not familiar. However, they adapted themselves to the con- ditions and offered no excuses for misplays. Every available seat was occupied as were both galleries. Many were obliged to stand. Tylor's Work a Feature The feature of the game from an Oshawa standpoint was the work of H. E. Tylor in the box for the local , officers His control was excellent and the visiting batters experienced as much difficulty connecting with his offerings as his teammates with those of Henderson, the opposing twirler. Tylor had as his battery partner, Kelso of the Business Men's line-up, with Ray Beldipg at first, Carlyle at second, Harris at third | and Dobson and Smith at the short- | stop positions. Harris contributed the feature in 'the sixth when he caught a hard line drive when a hit would have meant two or three runs. There were several other out- standing features, giving the fans ! many opportunities of voicing their appreciation. Oshawa Scores First, Oshawa scored one in the | i first | tallied three and six more in the | third.

Much has been said regarding the ability of the P.C.I. squad and there is no doubt but that the boys will be in for a tough contest, but they defeated the Petes once a year ago. and considerable improvement has been shown by the Oshawa lads in all departments. ; If they are playing up to form, the Electrical City students will have no easy task to dispose of the visitors. A victory right in Peter- boro would give the Oshawa lads a decided advantage, whereas if they lose on Saturday they must win at home to stay in the runming. The students are taking a number of supporters down with them and the team will be at full strength. A printer's wife found that oily ink would float on water, and so dis- covered marbling.

Councillors Debate (Continued from page 1) on the situation and Mr. Trick and Mr. Morris immediately left for the to buy some coal." . "Where will you buy this coal," interposed Councillor Stanton. "That does not matter," replied Councillor Johnston, "people will be satisfied if they get it, no matter where," he added. 100 Cars Diverted At this juncture Mr. Fowlds stat- ed that 100 cars éf coal had been diverted from here since the order had been made by the fuel control- ler. Mayor Stacey wanted to know where it had been diverted to. Coun- cillor 0. M. Alger expressed the opinion that although it might seem like a bitter pill to swallow that it would be a good idea to have the order rescinded. Councillor Preston arose and said that it amused him to see some of | those who voted for the fixing of the price of coal now scurrying to cover, as he termed it. He also questioned thie authority of the fuel committee to purchase coal with town funds. while by working in a mill.

Other Business Mrs. Lawson, of the Soldiers' Aid Commission appeared at Tues- day nights meeting of the coun- cil making a request that the body pay part of hospital bills incured both here and in Tor- onto, by the wife of a return- ed soldier. The bills amounted to $270.50. On the motion of Coun- cillor Preston the council decided to defray one half of the bill, the Sol- diers' Aid Commission to pay the other half. Councillor Brown explaining the matter stated that the reason that the woman had been moved from the hospital was because the patient de- sired to cut down expenses and not because the hospital would not take care of her. Smoke Nuisance A communication was read from D. A. J. Swanson, who is acting for a number of residents in the vicinity of the Schofield Woollen: Mills, which complained of the dense valume of smoke emitting from the company's smokestacks. The matter stated that conditions had become more than a private nuisance, being a public one. Housekeepers complain- ed that clothes placed on lines in their yards were ruined by the smoke. The solicitor contended that the council should take immediate action to have the nuisance abated. F. E. Hare, clerk, stated that he had communicated with the firm re- lative to this matter but had re- ceived no reply. Councillor Burns told his asso- ciates that Mr. Schofield had assured him that he would take no action until other factories complied also. He moved that the latter be received and filed. Councillor Preston didn't favor that action and declared that the problem was a serious ome. It should be rectified immediately, he contended. Councillor Burns replied that he was not upholding the Scho- field Company but thought that if the residents of this area wanted to become involved in a legal tangle it was up to them and that the Town should stay out of the matter. Eventually Councillor Preston moved that the matter be refered to the Town Solicitor, Col. J. F. Grierson. The motion carried. To Erect Poles A request was received from the Bell Telephone company for permis- sion to erect additional poles on var- fous streets. This was referred to the Town Property Committee. A letter was received from A. C. Lison asking that a petition which had been presented to the Council during 1920 be resurrected. The petition in question requested ad- ditional lights on Nassau street, be- tween Aberdeen and Connaught streets. Councillor Preston seized the opportunity to present the cause of Westmount asking for lights there. Councillor Brown averred that these streets would be taken care of as soon as material was available. Some difficulty was be- ing experienced, he said, in getting the material to instal these lights. The matter was referred to the Town Property Committee. A request for am advertisement from the council for a town diree- tory being compiled by Henry Vers- non, publishers of Hamilton, was received. This was referred to the License and Printing Committee.

J. A. McGibbhon, secretary of the Board of Trade, directed a commun- ication to the council telling the members of the reports and resolu- tions made and adopted at the re- cent meeting of the former body. Finance Committee's Report The report of the finance commit- tee was read by Councillor Burns. It revealed an expenditure of $93,- 563, being made up chiefly of de- partmental expenses of the usual nature. Councillor Preston wanted to know whether any of the amounts had been paid. Mr. Hare, clerk, re- plied that some of them had. Coun- cillor Preston desired to know if the sum of $3,000 had heen paid to John Carrol. It was paid. The councillor then moved that that one item be ieft out when the report was adopted until the next meeting. The other councillors were agreeable. SOME LUCKY INVENTION, Very few successful inventions have resulted from trying to invent, The most profitable inventions, oth- er than complicated machinery, which is generally developed rather than invented, have, as a rule, been discovered by chance. An jdea strikes a man, he sees something in it, patents it, and finds a manufacturer willing to produce, on terms. Sometimes the man sometimes the manufacturer. depends on the up the agreement. Blotting paper is an instance of a lucky invention. In a "making" of ordinary white paper a careless work- man forgot to put in the size. The spoiled sheets stood stacked, waiting to be destroyed. A gust of wind blew a newly written letter on to the stack, and a discovery worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was made. Waterproof cloth is another in- stance.
