ADALYIIMES WEDNESDAY AUGUST, 199 = = a mer DIAN AMATEUR TOURNEY INATED FROM CAN ILE, ELI Shard ton | g i AY . rr Ak EE SBN og Great Preparations Made for Record N i of Fans and Rooters at the | Game With Montreal in Toronto on Saturday -- "Block of 800 Seats Avail- CRA "With a trip to the Pacific Coast 4n quest of the Dominion cham- pionship at stake, the boys of the General Motors Senior Lacrosse team champions of Ontario, are all keyed up to concert pitch for Saturday's game against the Col- ~mmbus team of Mentreal in To- 'ronto for the championship of Bastern Canada. Everything de- pends on Saturday's game, for the management of the General Motors of Canada, Limited, has definite- ly decided to send the team west "for the Dominion title series if the boys come out on top against the Montreal outfit. This decision to send the team west was made almost as soon as the boys returned from their vic- tory over Brampton last Saturday, and was announced to the team on . Monday afternoon. The manage- ment of the company feels that { the boys have done splendidly so ' far, and are deserving of the op- _ portunity to win the highest laur- els for one of the best lacrosse _ aggregations that has been assem- _ bled in Ontario in recent years. The team is composed of a gen- ' tlemanly lot of fellows who, the company feels, will be worthy rep- resentatives of the General Motors of Canada in the western tour, "and so the edict has gone forth "Win on Saturday and go West". Big Rooters' Club : on sale at able for Oshawa Fans. Ratz, Tobacco tors to Send eam to West y's Game Won m4 ts, next to the 75 cent reserve on in the grand stand, an sufficient to accommodate 800 fans, has- been secured by the General Motors, and the tickets for these arrived in Oshawa to- day. Although they are in the grandstand, H, W. Nicoll has been able to secure these at fifty cents each, and they are to be placed Mike's place, I. L. Shop, at D. F. Johnston's clothing store, and T. B. Mitchells drug store and W. H. Karn's drug store today, as well as being distributed throughout the plant, and being on sale in the industrial relations building. The Loyal True Blues fife and drum band, which went to Bramp- ton last Saturday, will be with the team again in Toronto, and \will \provide lively music for the par- ade of the grounds and to cheer the team on to victory. it is expected that the whole block of 800 seats will be taker up by the Oshawa rooters and fans, and that when the boys step on the field on Saturday afier- noon, they will know that they have plenty of support. To Write Special Articles In the event of the team win- ning on Saturday and going west, readers of The Times will be kept well posted on the doings of the team and on the games there. Ar- rangements have been made with H. W. Nicoll, who will be in charge of the team, and who knows lacrosse from the ground up, to send, by special wire, a daily ar- ticle on the trip of the team, and giving his impressions of the games for the Dominion championship. This will provide local lacrosse fans with authoritative stories daily on the progress of their fav- orites in the quest for the Mann cup. - PICTURESQUE CONTENDERS FOR WORLD'S SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIP Real up-set of Days Play Jasper, Alta, Aug. 21.--"Sandy" Somerville, of London, Ont. the defending champion, was eliminat- ed from the Canadian amateur golf championship yesterday afternoon when Cecil Ceville of Vancouver defeated him on the thirty-sixth hole of the first match play round. After finishing the first 18 three up, Somerville lost his advantage in the afternoon, He was in a trap with his second on the last hole, and took two to get out, lying four on the green, while Coville was on in two and down in four. Coville's win furnished the only real upset of a day packed with thrillingly close rounds. All the favorites except Somerville won their rounds. Eddie Held of New York, the medallist in the qualify- ing round, defeated Monty Hill, Vancouver, two up. Don Carrick of Scarboro', Toronto, highly fanc- fed to repeat his wins of 1925 ana 1927, eliminated Jack Nash of Lon- don, Ont., on the thirty-sixth hole after a brilliant match, and D. Clark Corkran, of Nobla, Penu., easily defeated P. St. Germaine, of Laval, Montreal, 7 and 6. Don Carrick was almost elimin- ated by the 18-year-old Jack Nash of London. The last stroke on the last hole won the match for the Torontonian. Nash was never up on Carrick, but was always danger- ous, and it was a relieved Mr. Car- rick who walked off the home green. Today Carrick meets Freddy Wood, who took out Happy Fraser yesterday and the match will be closely watched. There are those who think the Pacific Coast young- ster can eliminate Carrick, but the general opinion is that the East- erner will come through safely.

A whole section of QUEEN'S OLD BOYS' RALLY TO DON GRiDIRON TOGS Kingston, Aug. 21.--At a meeting of the athletic board of control of Queen's university yesterday, W. R. Givens was reappointed as associate manager and coach to co-operate with T. A. McGinnis, in the handling of the old boys' team for their game on Sept. 28 with the Tricolor senior squad, Prospects are bright for a strong team to be lined up by the old boys Dr, J. L.

He said that Walker was not at- tending to his needs properly. Walker admits the defection of Summers but declares that the only trouble between them was engendered by Summers' delinqu- ency in training. Summers was the outstanding prospect in Walk- er's camp and had a great chance to get in the money.

When we do not play the game we, like all athletes expect to get the razz, last night we took plenty right on the chin for not playing the game and now have to "crawl." Yesterday in an article that dealt with the girls' softball game between the Marquettes and the Chey. ladies the wording concerning the playing of Rose Reece on first base for the Marquettes was not all that it might have been, in fact it was crude to say the least, and we heard all about it and wish to apologize to the lady in question for playing as we did. Ho Kay, Rose! Rose is going to be right back on that first base again tonight and all those who think that she will not be keeping her foot on the sack can come along and see the game, after which if they have anything to say it will likely be along different lines. She has every intention of playing ball tonight and expects to even better her amount of put outs from thirteen to any given number. On Monday Rose had thirteen put outs on first base, a near record for a first base player in any leagus and tonigrt with a foot on the bag she will show a lot of "wise acres" how to play first base. Well, here is some one's choice of an all-star girls' team and we suggest that you clip it out along with any others that appear and com- pare them with the team that is finally picked to represent the league. 1st base 2nd base 3rd base ...... ..V.

After next Wednesday the winner will likely be a certainty and then the team having been picked the practice dates will take place in preparation for the series of games that will be played with Toronto teams, These games will be played at the Motor City Stadium where any amount of fans can be accommelated with a small tariff of a dime a head beingethe price of admission. That's fair, A LADIES' SOFTBALL FAN The postponed game between the Oshawa General Motors and the Deloro nine will be played here this Saturday with the second place position resting 'on the outcome of the doubleheadér, So far the lo- cals have not been able to best the Smelters, but have always broken even on the two-game programs. To clinch the desired place in the league playoffs they 'must get a double win, while the same applies to the Deloro nine, Both teams are determined that they are the ones to be the win- ner and as a result of this feeling and their desire to finish up 'in the playoff position the games should be the best to date. The Fittings juniors go to Hamilton tonight for the first of the Ontario softball playdowns and expect to pull out a win over their Mountain City opponents. The date of the return game has not been announced yet but the fans will be told as soon as possible when they can see the junior finalists link up with outside teams.
