Outstanding - Star of Game In the second game of the home {"_and home series for the interprovin- . Hal" championship and the right to "travel to Winnipeg for the Dominion championship, the Montreal C.N.R. team from the Quebec city held the Oshawa Nationals to a one all tie which coupled with their one goal lead gained Saturday in Montreal entitles them to make the trip west . In quest of further honors. Nelson in goal for the C.N.R. team undoubtedly saved the visitors from being. defeated in their efforts to further the cause of their club: The "~~Nohtreal team, a big fast and clever band of soccer players were met by a more than determined but out lucked squad of footballers known to Oshawa ; as the Nationals. Their persistent efforts and combined at- tacks on the visitors goal were met at every turn by a cool defence and an unusually smart and lucky goal keeper, the latter saving at least a half dozen sure goals every one of which brought the large crowd of fans to their feet screaming with ex- citement and the closeness of the lay. P Duguid, checking Sathrang the goal scoring centre forward of the locals, continued the smart job that he started in Montreal and his training in this line was sufficient to keep the Nat's star off the score sheet all together although he broke loose on two or three rushes that resulted in near goals only. Play was fast but clean throughout the game and re- feree Mitchell of Toronté was only forced to warn an odd player for rough tactics. The injury received in Montreal by Harry Boyd right back of the Nationals played a large part in the team's failure to over- come the lead as he was forced to retire for attention in the first half and on taking the field in the last half he was moved to the forward line where his bad knee prevented him from getting the tieing goal when his shot on goal was just a fraction late or a fraction off the net, Sathrang also had his share of hard luck on the shooting when anxious for goals his shots were either handled by the goalie or inches off the mark, The two goals of the game came in the first half when the visitors netted the first one after ten min- utes of play with Neilson getting the goal after repeated trys by his team mates, the goal was scored on a hedder from a group of massed players around the Oshawa net. Osh- awa's goal was scored also in the first half with Torrance getting the oal on a rebound after a free kick rom inside the area. This goal came soon after Montreal's counter and brought the fans to their feet to stay for the remainder of the half. The game, a feature attraction in sporting circles for Oshawa, it being a playoff game that all Ontario and Quebec fans were awaiting the re- sult. The Oshawa citizens stood be- hind the club and city council in their successful efforts to bring the game here like a real sporting city should and the Motor City Stadium was taxed to capacity to accommo- date the crowd that had gathered on time to witness this great battle be- tween the best teams of the two pro- vinces. The only seats that were not 'Baseball SENIOR C.O.B.L.

One Each National kick off but play is quick- ly transferred to Oshawa end on a kick into cover the Nats got the ball to the Montreal end where a sen- sational end to end rush by Sathrang, who passed at the right moment only to 'have the ball go inches high of the goal, brought loud cheers from the Eo These same fans remained silent when the C.N.R. took play to Oshawa's end and there after re- peated trys scored the game's first goal. The count came as the result of a mass of players in front of Osh- awa's net with Neilson heading it in. Another close one by C.N.R, follow- ed this but the shot was high, Greene was injured and was forced to rest while his team continued to press hard. The Nats got up the field on a free kick and there Sathrang miss- ed a close one. Play stayed at mid- field for five minutes until Sathrang brooks loose and a neat goal result- ed from his shot from the west side of the field. Nats keep the ball on C.N.R. end for a spell but few good shots on goal result. On a corner shot Colt let go with one going right on the high corner but Nelson saved in time. From these CN.R. got back and with only Elrich to beat they failed fo score when Elrich saved the shot, Elrich made another save that was an almost sure goal. Dougall of the locals came close, Nelson saving received a jolt which caused a free kick. A series of shots failed to net for the Nats and a corner kick resulted. The repeated attempts of the Nats finally netted one and the crowd cheered madly. Torrance scored the local's goal. On a free kick from inside half way a rebound shot missed an open net and cleared the top bar, Two free kicks each way advanced and re- tarded the ball. Greene received a second warning from the referee as play speeded up. A long kick placed the ball in CN.R. territory when Sathrang missed a golden chance. From there to Oshawa's end until Boyd's bad knee received a jar in a collision in his own end. Boyd had to be attended to. No Scoring Harry Boyd started last half at outside left. Hurst going to right- back, Hagen playing right-half. Montreal kicked off and the ball ranged from end to end with no dan- gerous shots on either goal. Nelson saved on a free kick from the corner and ball immediately travelled to Oshawa end. C.N.R. press Oshawa's goal but are unable to net the ball, Davidson missed the net by inches on a free kick from in close. Na- tionals continue to press hard getting a corner kick along with combina- tion shots but are unable to find the net. Crowd rapidly becoming crazed as shots by Boyd, Sathrang and Tor- rance keep backs and C.N.R. goalie busy diverting them. A series of these close ones failed and the visit- ors clear to safer territory. C.N.R. get a long shot away but missed goal y three feet away. Sathrang got away on a nice rush but Nelson saved and ran the ball through, the crowd gathered in close. Another free kick brought another close one that Nelson cleared just in time. A long rush and a pass by Williams result- ed in a high shot that went out of the field Meldrum of the C.N.R. was injured in a collision and had to be revived. Montreal has a spell with Elrich saving many until an end kick brought the play back to CNR's end Nelson was forced to do some saving he did, Nats missed by inches again when Boyd shot one that missed being headed in by inches, from there to Oshawa"s end and back, Elrith saving a nice one. Once more a series 3 headed and kicked shots were saved by Nelson the goalie who increased his stand- ing in the limelight by his work in this offensive drive. CN.R's lost a man through exhaustion. Coll drew a warning for a foul on the goalie when he rushed in an effort to tie the score. Shots on CN.R. goal again were luckily saved. With the play in Oshawa's end fans start filing out of the park but play coming back halts them neay the gate. The game ended with the score still one all and the CN.R. team earning the right to continue in the quest for further honors. Score on round: Montreal C.N.R. 4, Oshawa Nationals 3.

Lamb's total, which equalled par for the 36-hole round of medal play, gave him an advantage of three stro- kes over his closest competitor, A. J. Hulbert of Thornhill, Toronto, who returned card of 70 and 75 for an aggregate of 145. Hurlbert's first round total was one stroke under par for the difficult Laval course. Two strokes behind the runner-up Bob Cunningham of Mississauga, To- ronto, and Bobby Burns of Hamp- stead, Montreal, tied for third place. J.

Paris, July 23.--Official selection of the French Davis Cup team for this week's challenge-round play with the United States, announced last night, definitely eliminated Rene Lacoste from the list. The United States team were notified by the French captain, Pierre Gillou, that his team would be chosen from Henri Coch- et, Jean Borotra, Christian Boussus and Jacques Brugnon, Cochet and Borotra will play the singles, Rene Lacoste, ace of the Victorious French teams of 1927 and 1928, has been ill with a severe cold and com- plications, which kept him out of competition entirely, His loss is con~ sidered a big blow to the defending forces. In anticipation of it, however, M. Gillou previously had disclosed his intention to rely on Cochet and Borotra probably for the doubles as well as the sifigles. guid, Turnbull, Keir, 'Henderson, Williams, Meldrum, Finldyson, Neil« son, Greene.

Dougall, SPORT SNAPSHOTS * tario 'Baseball team that started the season in a winning day won the Canadian professional|' pl Goals missed by inches truly describes the brand of hard luck that the Oshawa Nationals had throughout the two game series with the Montreal C.N.R. team and though the Quebec eleven is one smart team that play steady soccer from the start of each game until the end. They met a team that was determined to get a win. This determina- . tion led to the Nationals defeat as much as anything else with the exception of 'Lady Luck as their eagerness to score goals often had the locals disorganized and playing out of their position, so eager were they for the needed one yo two goals, * 5 5 =» The Nationals were playing a slightly superior team to their own but the difference was made up in both games by the determination of the Oshawa squad and they were defeated in Montreal by clever de- fensive play on the part of the CN.R. backs, while here, these same backs proved the undoing of the locals, when they held the Nats to the one goal that they scored, while at the same time the Nats were in position to score plenty, 5% "ey The crowd that witnessed the game last night will have some efféht on the Association when they have cause to think that Oshawa is not big enough to sponsor such a sporting attraction, To have played both games in Montreal would have been the height of folly as the C.N.R. team has not the support of the fans in their own city that is shown to any team of Oshawa. The game in Montreal was played before a crowd not one-fifth as large as that at the Motor City Stadium last night and of the crowd last night there was over ninety per cent, of them pulling for the home team, while in Montreal the crowd was al- most evenly divided between the home and visiting teams. * * * * To show that they meant what they said about being behind the Nationals to a man the "big shots" of the city council were all there to see the team play and Mayor T, B.Mitchell kicked off (not very straight) at the start of the game, 3s * * The Chev ladies' softball team and their rival motor team, the Marquettes, will soon be calling cach other by their first names. Last week the Chevs were called upon to play the Marquettes two nights in a row, the first game being part of a convention program and the second game a league game. Tonight and tomorrow recent history re- peats itself, when the leading Chevs play th® trailing Marquettes at Lakeview Park at the Service Convention and then hook up with them tomorrow night in a league fixture at Rotary Park. * * * * Another big doubleheader in the City and Industrial Softball League is billed for tonight at the Motor City Stadium, with Fittings playing St, Gregorys in the first game and A.Y.M.C. playing The Oshawa Daily Times in the last half, The last double header that The Times were playing in resulted in a disastrous loss for The Times through darkness and the game is likely to be protested. Tonight's game may also be the same unless the games start promptly on time as.the long days of summer are slowly becoming shorter and shorter. * * * * The General Motors senior Central Oh- style have fallen prey to nothing else but Errors, Errors, Errors, and have been losing games as the result of these misplays, losing to Peterboro on Saturday in one nightmare inning when the Petes gathered in seven runs through few hits but plenty of errors.

Their reasons for this stiff training campaign when their chances are nil are chiefly based on the fact that Toronto people have been starved of senior lacrosse this year as the teams usually entered from that city were missing at the start of the season, This means that they have had little chance to see a good senior game this ycar and added to that they have not yet had the oportunity of seeing the champion Oshawa team in action as Saturday's game will be the first appearance of the Motors in the Queen City this season, * * * . In their last meeting here the Torontos forced the Motors to ex- tend themselves and then they did not do it by any great margin, Close scores are remembered by lacrosse fans and they will turn out to see their team play, win, lose or draw with nothing at stake just so long as they see a good game of their favorite sport, la VE No word has been received by us to date as to when the playing of the extra games for the right to playMaitlands in thé intermediate lacrosse series will be played, but it is a surety that the games will be played soon, so that the finals may be got along with in the near fu- ture, | Hagan, Sathrang, E.

Errors proved costly to the locals last night, when five of them by Young, McCallum, Gray, Little and Wills all muffed chances at times when runners were on a time that there were some on bases. It was a tough break for the locals. This loss places them in a tie for second place with Delora. The locals collected one run fin the first and did not score again until the eighth when they pushed three over. Belleville on the other hand, scored two in the first, three in the third and three in the fifth. The final score was 8 to 4, for the Belleville Family Compact, Mathews started on the mound for the locals, was relieved in the third by Wills who was in turn re- lieved in the. eighth by. Osborne. Matty hadn't pitched a game for nearly two weeks and was a little stiff at first. For a while it look- ed as though he had lost his form- er stuff but it wasn't long before he came back into style. Matty pitched nice pall for the short time that he was in. Errors proved his undoing. 'A pitcher cannot win a game if his mates Yall down on him. Wills went in and for the four innings' he pitched, he heaved smart ball, Lefty could easily have finished - the game, The teams broke even while he was in the box each one scoring three. Lefty had lots of stuff and didn't show any effects of his game on Saturday. Osborne who went in in the eightn frame threw exactly five balls to the batters before retiring the side. One man flied out and the other two were thrown out at first, % Belleville 'played their veteran twirler, Alex Weir, Weir pitched'a ed signs of weakening. Belleville had piled up too big a score near the first for the locals to over come atthe last. Oshawa outhit the Nationals eight to five. The locals had a triple and two doubles to their credit. For the last few games mow the locals have been outhitting their opposition but they do not seem to be able to follow up with enough runs. Osh- awa's errors have been very costly for her and the sooner this bad stuff is worked out of the system the sooner they will get near the top.
