Ladies' Softball Team Hands Out Severe Drubbing to Cheuvs. 23-3 Malleables Gather in Eigh- teen Hits and Chevs. Make Things Worse by Making Large Number of Errors-- 'Game Is Poor Exhibition of Softball and Winners Completely Dominate Sit- uation--Tilt Is Witnessed by Large Crowd Who Seem to Enjoy the Affair Despite Numerous Mis- plays Oh! Oh! And they advertised ft as a ball game, Last night be- fore a record crowd of screeching, excited fans, the OM.I. Ladies' softball team completely or almost completely humbled the Chovs. when they smothered them be- neath an avalanche of hits and the Chevs very obligingly helped mat. ters by making so many errors lost count, When the dust had rolled away and the nolse had died down, it was found that tho score of the game wag just 28 to 3, It is doubtful if a worse dis play has been given this season but nevertheless the fans seemed to enjoy It and the majority of . them went home highly satisfied. The game reminded us of an- other one of a similar nature play- od up behind the Collegiate, about two seasons ago. While the Mal- loables certainly had it over the Chevs, like the proverbial tent, last night, they need to remember what the Chevs came back and did after that trouncing two years ' ago. The Chevs had an off night, there is no doubt, but they have ' # habit of coming back as if noth- ing had happened and the O.M.I. will have to stay wide awake, But coming back to last night's game, it was just ahout the poor- ost game that has been played in that league this year, The Malle ables started right in with three runs in the first and five more in the second. They ran wild In the fifth to score nine runs, Except or the seventh inning, when the hevs, got a coupl. of hits, they could do nothing wrong and, time and time again, the Chevs. first batter would get safe and the next three would be put out in quick time, On the other hand the Chevs could do nothing right, until the sevonth Imning. The OMI, hit and bunted them off thelr feet, The scorekeepor lost track of the number of errors made but he managed to catch twentyl-three, B. Morgan had five, D, Kennedy and M. Elliott each had four and Annie Walker was the only one who was not credited with an er- ror aud she made one or two minor misplays on bunts, The Malle ables had five errors but they had their big total in hits, HKighteen was the total annexed off the, of- ferings of Annie Walker while the f Chevs, only got eight, H.

Their birds were 1ib- erated from Montpilier, Ohio in a race to Oshawa, a distance by air of 336 miles but the storm which struck here Saturday night must have caught them half way home with the result'that only two pigeons wero clocked in, the first being the property of Bramley Bros, being clocked In late Satur day evening, the Second being a bird from the loft o! J. Askow, which arrived on Sunday, However, the weather cleared on Monday with the result that several more birds got home but were too late to clock, Tho following is the. result: 1, Bramley Bros, 914,10; 2, J. Askew, 459.78, The next race will: be hald on Saturday next from Peru, Indiana, USA, a distance of 406 miles alr line, At last Oshawa is on the Race ing Pigeon Map and the credit goos to Mr, Vernon Whiteley, On Saturday last the Toronto Federa- tion staged the annual Open Pigeon Race from Danville, Ill, U.8.A, This race is open to all Ontario and some of the Lest pigeons in Qanada compete, The distance from 'Danville to Mr. Whiteley's loft is 520 miles, 600 yards and his. bird proved his. worth by cove ering thig distance and taking third position in the race, being beaten out of first and second by Mr, Oakley, of Toronto but the fact remains that great credit is fue Mr. Whiteley and his bird be- cause they have brought honor to the city . of Oshawa and proven that Oshawa 1s just as good in racing pigeons as any of the larger cities, Gilbert Nunns Wins Three Matches in Eastern Canada Championships Ottawa, Ont, July 9.-All the ranking players of the Dominion came succsesfully through the secs ond and third round play of the Eastern Canada championships being played here on the courts of the Rideau Lawn Tennis Club at Overbrook.

The triumphs of Jones are so fresh in the public mind that even those who don't know the dif- ference between a stymie and a niblick, a birdie and a bunker will mention his name immed- lately If asked: 'Who {is the world's greatest golfer?" From June through June 1920- '30, Robert Tyre of the Atlanta Jonses, won the American Open championship, the British Ama- teur and also the Open, and the only break in this extraordinary chain of victories was his un- lucky elimination by a relatively obscure player in the second round of the U, 8, Aniateaur last September, Three times winner of the Bri tish and American Open Titles twice holder of the U. 8. Ama teur title and now wearing Bri tish Amateur crown, lobby is go- ing after the 1030 U. 8. Open championship which Is being played at Interlachen near Min- neapolis this week, In this event, Jones Is favorite of course; but he's matching strokes with Wal ter Hagen, who's trained espec- fally for it. Leo Diegel, Mac- Donald Smith, the ever-threaten- ing Horton Smith and---to be brief and accurate--gbout four- fifths of the world's abjest links talent, It Jones proves the master at Interlachen he will face but one more hurdle-the U, 8. Amateur +-the winning of which by Bobby this year would monopolize for him ALL the world's four great major golf events. He's already sporting the 1930 British Ama- teur and Open laurels, the United States Open's in his reach, and then he will be facing the year's final big prize. Already erities are unanimous in rating this 28-year-old lawyer an "the greatest of all .golfers" since the game began. Many of his keenest competitors endorse that opinion. The youthful Hor ton Smith always has stfessed that opinion and recently the hard-boiled "Haig" (long acclaim- ed by many as 'the greatest") slated that his Atlanta rival is the all-time king of golf--"a one and only," as the wise Sir Walter ex- pressed it, Tens of thousands who do not follow golf join in the arclaim to Jones, Likewise, fully as many, who care little racing join In the general delight over the sen: sational victories of Gallant Fox, whose fame is linked so insepara- bly with that of. the great and popular jockey---Earl Sande.

Camramy, Sports Editer O.M.1, -Take Chevs. Into Camp It was "just too bad" for the Chevs, last night, There was a very large crowd at the Motor City Stadium and by the sound made, most of them were pulling for the Malleables to win but it is certain that practically every one who attended, fully expected to see a real smart, hard-fought game, but in this respect they were woefully disappointed. The Chevs. turned in their worst performance of the last two seasons. The entire team had an "off night" and not one member of the team played what might be called a really strong game, On the other hand, except for the seventh inning, the Malleables could do nothing wrong and they certainly made the most of their advantage. They had the Chey. hurler and infield played off their feet by the clever manner in which they mixed their hits and bunts, It was quite evident that the Malleables have been getting some good coaching in the very recent past, * . . * Hits Plus Errors Spell Defeat Eighteen hits and twenty-three errors were the two deciding factors in/the Chevs, defeat. However, while the Chevys. did not do so well last night, it must be remembered that they have a habit of coming right back with a complete reversal of form and they should make it very interesting for the next team sthey play, which will be Whitby Rovers, in Whitby on a week from Friday.

The Leafs, who paraded soveral new players, were about value for en even break in the initial half of play, but fell away. badly in the final, session. Tuckwell scored the only goal up to the interval of an interest. ing half, which found both custod- fans ever on guard as end to end rushes were frequent, and although Leafs tried hard, poor marksman ship nullified their best efforts, Joe Rabbitt's Hit Defeats Orioles 3-2 Toronto, July 9.-=Joe Rabbitt wait- ed until the tenth inning yesterday to connect for a hit, but when he did connect he won a ball game for the Leafs. With three mates on the runways and two men out, Rabbitt pulled the ball between second and nist for a ¢lean single and Pete Cote coasted home with the run that broke up a swell hurling duel be- tween Guy Cantrell and y Ao Ed- wards, late of the Braves and Yan- kees, and gave the Leafs their sec- ond successive win in this series over the Orioles, The score was 3 to 2, It was Cantrell's 14th win of the sea- son against five defeats, and his fourth from the Oriles, Another all important blow in the tenth was a double to left by Cote, It sent Doc Sheedy, whose fast sprint ing had enabled him to beat out a roller in front of the plate, flying a- round to third and Eddie Phillips was mtentionally passed to crowd the corners, Art Ruble, pinch-hitting for Cantrell, forced Sheedy at the plate when he slashed to Hauser, and that gaye Rabbit his chance to become the man of the hour. Joe made the most of it Game a Thriller The game was a thriller and a well played. one, Twice the Leafs were in front before they finally ran down the run that gave them the victory, only to have the Orioles knot it up each time Cantrell and Edwards did some great flinging, with the Baltimore righthander holding the Leafs hitless until the sixth though they scored a run in the second on successive passes to Harris and Burke, a sacri- fice bunt by Sheedy and Cote's hoist to Barton in right. They began to feel Edwards out near the end and in the tenth they made three of the seven hits they blasted during the game, RAINVILLE 18 UNABLE TO COMPETE AT OTTAWA Montreal, July 9.----Marcel Rain. ville of Montreal, Canadian Davis Cup player and tennis champion of the Province of Quebec, will not take part in the Eastern Canadian championships at Ottawa this week, He expressed regret on hear- ing that a misundorstanding had apparently arisen, and that he was expocted to compete at the Capital, He never sent in an en- try, and informod the committee in charge all along that he would be unable to play.
