PAGE SIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1929 CITY OFTBALL LEAGUE ANNOUNCES INTERMEDIATE SCHEDULE [ntermediate Softball Teams Start Schedule June 3rd) Idle Leafs Gain Concerning Cross Checks The Man Behind Schedule Averages Around One Game a Week For Each Team -- Season "Tickets to Sell for $2.00, Includes All Finals -- Junior and Juvenile Fur- ther Delayed by Condition of Cowan Park June the 3rd was set for the opening of the intermediate series of Oshawa and District Softball League last night at their regular meeting when a proposed schedule was duly voted on and passed. Though the weather kept many team representatives from the meeting, business was taken up and all transactions were attended to in & prompt and orderly manner. A report from a delegation that had interviewed the management of the Haleys Flats or' Stadium Park was read and the result was the price of the season tickets for in- termediate games was set down as a deuce a piece, with the single admisisons to be fifteen cents for the "big folks" and five cents for the "little folks". A season ticket includes not only the league play- offs, but the final playoffs played in this field as well; that is to say, that the winner of the intermediate geries here will be playing semi- final games with teams in other leagues, and any games played iu Haley Flats will be included in the price of the season ticket. Owing to a delay in the condition- g of the playing field at Cowan iy the 'junior and juvenile schedule was not ready for submis- sion to the representatives. It is pxpected it will be shortly, as no Parks Commission are meeting to night, and after, the meeting rapid strides will be made to get the field In order. A delegation from the Pity and Industrial League had al- ready been appointed and they, with the exception of Chuck Mason, wlll attend this meeting. The intermediate schedule fs published below, and it would be well to keep it in a convenient place for handy reference.

Bob Welland, the Pale Sox youny southpaw, held the visitors to five hits. ATHLETICS AGAIN ON TOP Detroit, May 15.--The Athletics regained the American League pin- nacle by defeating the Tigers, 10 to 8, in the second game of the series here yesterday while the Yankees sat idly about thir hotel in Cleve- land watching the rain. It required the efforts of two of Connle Mack's starting pitchers, Jack Quinn and Bob Grove, and his two best finishers Bill Shores and Eddie Rommel, to halt the Ben- gals, who went down with three on base in the ninth when Grove fanned Hargrave and Johnson after permitting Phillips to single and Schuble to walk. | NATIONAL | BRAVES DROP CUBS INTO TIE Boston, May 15.--Doubles by Berney James, a rookie infielder and Al Spohrer with one out in the 12th gave the Braves a 6 to 5 victory over the Cubs here yedter- day, and dropped the Chicago visi- tors into a tie with the Cardinals for the league leadership.

CANADIAN CLASSIC LOOKS PROMISING Stiff Contention in King's Plate Is Forthcoming---' Canadian Turf Season . Opens Toronto, Ont., May 15.--No ma'- ter who will win the King's Plate this year, one thing is certain--it will bea real race. 'The Canadian turf classic, the oldest continuous- ly-run race on the American Con- tinent, will feature the opening day of the brilliant meeting at old Woodbine Park, home of the On- tario Jockey Club, on May 18, and also of the Canadian turf season. The race is over the mile and a quarter distance with $15,000 add- ed to the King's 50 guineas. Last year the race turned out to be an individual triumph for the Seagram star, Young Kitty, who the year before had been uu- disputed Canadian two-year-old champion. This month the story in different. Halt a dozen thor- oughbreds are real contenders and another half dozen cannot be left out of the reckoning. Fifty-eight were named in the entries for the 1929 renewal, and it is possible the field will set a new record. Gathering added prestige as the years roll by, the King's Plate has reached pre-eminence in the do- minion similar to the Derby at Ep- som and the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, which incident- ally will also be run on May 18, It is limited to province-bred three and four-year-olds, and the four- year-olds are those who have not won a race as three-year-olds. King's Plate day will see a dis- tinguished gathering at the beauti- ful track in the east end of To- ronto. Its emerald infield and the sparkling waters of Lake Ontario offer a spectacle of natural beauty to the crowds that will throng its two great stands. Many other rich prizes are offered during the week and handicap races in particular have attracted some of the best horses in America competing in this class. Steeplechasing also 1» at its best at Woodbine, the 0.J.C. having always given particular en- couragement to this thrilling sport. © "The leading contenders in the King's Plate on their workouts in the past few 'weeks are the NSwvu- gram star, Circulet, who has been training in company: with Young Kitty; Irish Sphere, another Sea- gramite; Shorelint and Pin Wheel from the Thorncliffe stable; As- R. "W. Cowie's Master Bobbie; Milestone and Cuddle Doon. And this does not exhaust the list of possible winners. Pin Wheel and Circulet, at a rough estimation, appear the "ones to beat." Circulet was undefeated as a two-year-old until he broke down in the Clarendon Plate in the fall, and Pin Wheel won the clos- ing juvenile home-bred stakes. Pin Wheel was the first horse to beat Circulet. Given fair weather a record crowd may see the race and the conferring of the laurel wreath on the shoulders of the victorious thoroughbred.

NICOLL 'We all know "the man Behind," as he is dlways on hand when a team wearing Oshawa colors is on the field or ice, and he is not al- ways behind. Mr. Nicholl has been around Oshawa sport circles. for some little time and in nearly all these, the team that "Nick" is interested in is one that can be re- lied upon to give the fans all that can be expected of any team, their best. Mr, Nicoll as Director of Per- sonell of the General Motors, Oshawa, comes in for a lot of xrier all athletics sponsored by the Mo- tors. His interest at the present is mostly apparent on the lacrosse field where he can be seen any night running around with a stick Oshawa, comes in for a lot of grief his pets. Some of the clubs that have had Mr. Nicoll on their advisory board recently are the Oshawa Shamrock Juniors Hockey team, last year eliminated by the To- :ronto Young Rangers in a semi- in his hand keeping close watch on termediate team entered in the O.H.A. In both instances Mr. Nicoll's expert advice was accep- table and proved to be of great value to the team soliciting his aid. . H. E, Nicoll was last year con- nected with the Lacrosse club in the same capacity as he is this year, and his experience and know- ledge was felt during every game. This year "Nick" is more confi- dent than ever before and expects to have both trophies in his of- fice at the end of the coming sea- son. Mr. Nicholl was also tireless in his efforts regarding the success of the baseball-lacrosse smoker and owing to his connection with all athletics his task was doubled. This dual role was filled in a most successful manner and received final tilt and the Oshawa City in- cipient of many cheers, an indica- tion of the Oshawa fans' confi- dence in his ability to fill his posi- tion as "the man behind." TOMORROW---THE GLOBE SHIELD Es | SPORT SNAPSHOTS | Things took on a brighter aspect last night in so far as the intermediate softball players are concerned through the announcing and passing of the schedule at the regular meeting of the City and Industrial Softball League Although the League officials have met with trouble from nearly every angle they have at last come through the period of darkness and all should be clear sailing in the intermediate loop at least, Season tickets for all intermediate games will be sold with all games being played at the stadium, these tickets will be priced at $2.00 each and will include admission to all playoff games. This method will enable Mr, Fan to see any or all the games for a fraction over five cents a game. For those that do not buy these ducats, separate admissions were sta- ted as being fifteen cents per dozen,with the children's tax five cents, All is not rosy in the junior and juvenile seri wever, and the offi- cials are still striving to get things started, the deldy in this case is the condition of Cowans Park. There is a meeting of the Parks Commission tonight to decide among other things what has to be done to make this park playable. A delegation from the City and Industrial League will attend this pow wow in order to accelerate any action that the commission may decide upon. The Ladies' Softball League are also experiencing plenty of grief and their main difficulty is not cation of "the" grounds. 2 If the Whitby ladies likely will the Whitby team will be ronto in Whitby this J his Saturday afternoon. for all interested in ladies' softball in and the condition of the grounds but the exact lo- « he Rumor has it that they. may have to pla games in Whitby, this would only result in 3 1 play doubtful whether this will be put up with a large expenditure and it is by the executive, get permission from the Toronto Body and they playing the Canadian Ladies of To- This game wil] be an: attraction around Oshawa as the Whitby team is picked by many to capture the league honors, and an exhibition game at this time of the year of teams from the two leaghes, . will give some indication as to the strength Tonight will see the starting of a track and field club when the en- thusiast of the sports conne ing in the Industrial Relati for an active summer program; cted with the track and field gather at a meet- ons Building to elect officers and make plans Lady Golf Favorites Win St. Andrew's, Scotland, May 15.--The two main threats in the British women's open golf cham- pionship--Mis Joyce Wethered ana Miss Glenna Collett--came through their second-round matches yes- terday and, although the former won in decisive fashion, the Unired States champion experienced a hard struggle in emerging from the second round. Miss Wethered, former Briusn champion, downed Mrs. D. G. Ma- dill, eight up and seven to pay and in doing so gave a convincing demonstration of her ability to block the paths of ofreign invad- ers seeking the title. Mrs, P. J. Mylqueen, of Toron- to, Canada's lone representative, won her match with Miss A, M., Hyde of Sandy Lodge, one up. To- day she will meet Mrs. J. B. Walk- er of Walton Heath. Glenna Collett had a weak rouna today. She defeated Maude wi,- ant, three up and two to play, in the second round, a comfortable enough margin. but until the last three holes of the match when she struck her stride and won them one after another, the visiting girl never seemed safe, Under the ever-changing condi- tions 'which make the St. Anarew s course unique among the golf courses of. the world, the United States champion's putter failed her completely yesterday. At green after green she failed to get her ball up to the cup. All last night rain fell, and today, instead of the fast greens of yesterday, they displayed a varying 'pace, re- quiring perfection in judgment and touch, Miss = Collett took three putts on five greens. Thanks to these errors, Miss Bryant was able to hold her own until the fourteenth where the vis- itor began to display the boldness on the gréens she displayed in her wooden clubs, Miss Marion Hollins, former champion of the United w.ates, won her second match fromm Miss P. Ramsay, 4 and 3, and Miss Gei2- rude Boothby, Rochester, Minn., defeated Mrs. J. A. D. Bell, six up and five to play. v In her smashing victory today Joyce Wethered played eleven holes in two over fours, again dis- playing her ability to meet and master the pranks of St. Andrew's weather. She putted well, miss- ing only two reasonable ones in the eleven holes. She missed only one other shot. Her drive at the third topped on a piece of lost turf which she could not move without moving the ball. She had to strike the turf, then the ball, so her shot was spoiled. Her ecard showed a score of 39: for the first nine holes; she started back 4-3, ending the match. Golfers con- tinue to wonder at the excellence of her play. Hole for hole, Miss Collet would have been four down to the British star at the eleventh, Where the wonder girl match end- ed. Bramby Bird Wins Second Race The Oshawa Homing Society held their second Old Bird 'pigeon race of the season from Washago, Ontario, a distance of sixty-five miles air line It was unfortunate that through some mistake on the part of the liberator the birds were let go in the rain with the consequence that a slow race was flown, The following is each member's po- sition and the yards per minute flown by his birds.

The draw for those will be made today at noon. John Hennessey and Dr. Jack Wright, leading exponents on the United States and Canadian teams, respectively, will lead their countries in the singles. Hennes- sey is expected to have John Van Ryn to help him bear the brunt of work in the singles; and it is be- lieved that Willard Crocker will be chosen as the second Canadian. The question of the doubles con- tenders for Friday's game is a much more even one and this ap- plies to both countries. Allison and Van Ryn, a seasoned team, were regarded as the likely choice for the visitors, but of late these two have 'been. faring none too well in rpactice matches, and in fact have suffered numerous re- verses at the hands of Hennessey and Mercur, who have never team- ed much together. Canadians Unce:«ain The Canadians have an even greater problem to solve and from the fact that they are changing around and playieg in different formations every day it seems that no decision has been made by the officials, Dr, Cleveland has on the one hand Crocker and Wright, who have played together often and with varying success. He al- 80 has Wright and Ham, the choice last summer against Japan; anu then Crocker and Roinville, Can- adian indoor doubles champions Wright and Rainville, - have not been practicing together and are aparently not o be considered. The question here resolves itself around Crocker's ailment, ue hard tennis in the trials in 'r'orun- to after some weeks of rest from the game gave him a kind of ten- nis arm, which has been somephat painful and annoying. The com- mittee may consider it wise, 1 ¥e is to play in singles, to rest him up on the intermediary day, and in that case Wright and Ham will probably be the choice. AN IMPORTANT MEETING To organize a Track and Field Club will be held tonight in the Industrial Relations Building on William street at 8 o'clock. All interested in this branch of sport are asked to attend.

Andrew Chambers was tapped for T0 hits but had - his knuckle ball working with deadly accuracy in the pinches and the Royals just es- caped a shut-out. The Birds drove Asa William argrove from the mound in the third with a four run barrage and picked up another tally in the sixth at the expense of Roy Buckalew, who relieved.
