Gummow, Lottie, Bond, Boultbee, Wiginton, Kohen and "Liz" Walker himself will be able to hold up their end of the defensive play very well.

Tomorrow CRICKET NOTES The curtain has now rung down on the 1930 season, and "King Wil- low" now takes a well-earned rest during the winter months. The local cricket club has every reason to be proud of its perfor- mance during the past season, , Harry Howarth, the principal trundler, created a Canadian bowl- ing record, and also topped the bowling averages for all leagues in the Toronto and District series, Fred Larmouth also appeared in the principal batting averages, and made the highest individual score in a league game, The club finished in third place, and the outlook seems very bright. for future seasons. The boys have pulled well together, and have fully realized the fact that team work is the only essential thing for achieve- ment, The final game, last Saturday, gave the win to the-club, although it was more of an inter-club game than the average friendly exhibi- tion, The boys were very pleased to welcome back to the ranks, Lionel Phillips, 'who has been away to the Old Country. . Lionel is a speed merchant with the leather, and is a great acquisi- tion to any team. In summing up, we must say, "Well done, boys," and trust that we see you altogether again on the road to further honors next year, HOW THEY LOOKED DOWN AT THE STADIUM LAST NIGHT looked when they held their first floodlight practice of the season "In the evening by the Moon. | dium. light."

' x % =® The new flood-lights have been in- stalled down at the Motor City Sta- dium and last evening the boys were put through a light work-out under them. The lighting is a great deal better than last year and Trainer Sammy Johnson says that there won't be half the injuries due to fly- ing heels as there were last year. That's good news. To-morrow will see the gang in action for the first time this season 'and Coach Walker is all steamed up over the occasion. He has spent un- told hours teaching the squad what there is to know about interference and to-morrow will sec whether his numib-skulls have imbibed any of the pearls or not. * ¥% ¥ The new sweaters were passed out last evening, and I must say that they look exceedingly well. They are plain Royal Blue with a thirteen inch number in white on the back. The socks are also plain blue, shoes black and trousers khaki. The whole unjform makes an exceedingly natty appearance and all we hope is that the showing of the team will be in accordance with their uniforms, » LJ The team are travelling by Tim Garton's Express bus, and are leav- ing here at seven o'clock in the morning. I know some birds that will have quite a time getting chiselled away from their little warm cots at that early 'hour. Probably have to send around a nurse to get them up. x ® » The team that will be making the trip to Queen's will be as follows :-- Snap, Gray; Insides, Logan, Elliott and Cornish; Middles, Cooke, John- ston and Cutler; Outsides, Bond, Gummow, Boultbee and Kohen; Fly- ing Wings, Wanless and Lortie; Hal- ves, Hubbel, Rowden, "Tribble and Hood, Quarter, MacDonald. - Besides the above-mentioned group of players therc are a few of the executive going along to keep hub- fo CHARLIE McDONALD The above picture is of Charlie McDonald, who is still a stig vw to the ma jority of sport fans.

Charlie is new to Oshawa, but nevertheless a great many local sport fans, hockey in particular, will have heard of him. Do you remember the memorable hockey condi- series of 1928-29 when the Oshawa | Shamrocks were eliminat-d i» sémi-finals by Young Rangers in a | game which want thirty nunutes o. overtime, eliminated by Marlboros by 2 to 1 and the "Dukes" won the Memorial | Rangers | defeated Oshawa Shamrocks 3 to 2 | in the second game, the first way | Cup that year. Young a 2-2 tie, Rangers scored their third goal in the third overtime period and the boy who scored the goal which kept the Shamrocks out '| of the finals was none other than Charlie McDonald. However, Charlie is playing rugby this fall with the Blue Devils and he will occupy the position of quarterback. He will handle the team tomorrow in Kingston... Charlie played rugby with Hamilton Juniors. He is about 5 feet, 7 inches in height and built on the durable plan. He tips the beam at about 160 pounds. He is still young but is developing fast. by from getting lonely. They are: Neil Hezzlewood, Claude Watt, Nick Nicoll, 8-cylinder Swartz, Ed. Wilson (who will be unable to play), Pres- ident Wally Clarke and Trainer Sam Johnson and his assistant trainer, How Luke. x ¥ * A number of very loyal supporters of the club have already signified their intentions of accompanying the team on their initial jaunt of the sea- son and they are going to look and sound like a million bucks down at Richardson Stadium. !

After this game, at 5.00 o'clock, the Bakery will clash with Textiles in an Inter-Leagde City championship game, This should be a real battle, Textiles must win this game or suffer elimination as they have already lost one game.

The 1930 series opened at Rochester, where the Wings won three games and the Colonels one. They divided the series with the Colonels* at Parkwey Field here, each team winning two games. The Rochester players took a cue from the Athletics today and made their hits count by coupling them with sacrifice flies and bunts and taking advantage of Louis- ville's errors.

Rodger of Lambton, who was in second place at the half-way mark. Mrs. Jones' second 95 placed her one stroke in front of Mrs. Coulson, who was away off her game, tak- ing 105 against 86 in -the first round, and Mrs. Rodger came to the final green needing a 20-foot putt for a 98, which would tie Mrs, Jones.

Gould.) (Associated Press Sports Editor.) Shibe Park, Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 3--Again giving a perfect demonstra- tion of how to recognize Old Man Opportunity and accord him a hard- some welcome, Connie Mack's Ath- letics subdued the St. Louis Cardinals yesterday fbr the secand . straight time and continued to move rapidly toward another world's baseball championship, Pic' 'ng up where Bob Grove left off in the ojening game, but adding considerably more fireballing to the roceedings, big George Earnshaw shot the Red Birds down on the wing while his long fange artillery support knocked Charles Flint Rhem out of the box and gave the Athletics a de- cisive triumph by the score of 6 to Before another capacity crowd of 32,295 roaring cash customers who contributed to a "gate" of $152,735, exactly duplicating the figures for tle first game, Earnshaw overpow- ered the Cardinals in decisive fa- shion, allowing six hits altogether, but only two in the last seven in- ning, and baggings a total of eight strikeout victims with his rifle-shot speed and baffling curve. The only Cardinal run was due to a homer over the rightfield wall in the second inning by young George Watkins, in his series debut at bat, after which Earnshaw bore down and 'easily tamed the St. Louis flock, despite a brand of suvport that fell far below the sparkling standard of the Mackmen y.sieiua,. Meanwhile the Athletics again cashed in on every opportunity to score." They collected only seven hits altogether, but all of them were gathered off the delivery of Rhem in less than four innings and. all ofi them figured in the run-making, Cochrane Repeats with Homer Again it was the heavy artillery that did the damage 'and struck an- other severe blow to the hopes of the Red Birds. Mickey Co bra , home-run hero of the first game, led the big barrage wita his Sceuinu dus= cessive circuit clout, in the first in- ning, after which Al Simmons, Jim- my Foxx and Jimmy Dykes, with the helpful bat of "Bing" Miller, fired the big shots that brought about the downfall of the ill-fated Rhem, The combination of these heavy howitzers on attack, with Earnshaw's sharpshooting on the defense, was simply too much for. the Cardinals in a game that packed little of the drama or excitement of the opening day. The outcome, however, sent the rampant A's westward tonight with so commending a lead that they were «lrong favorites to win their second straight world's © championship and their fiifth of all time under the leau- ership of Connie Mack, The battle will be resumed Satur- day in Sportsman's Park, St. Louis, in the third game, with the A's need- ing only two more victories to clinch the defense of the championship and complete a rout of National League forces that has now reached the stac- gering proportions of fourteen de- feats in the last fifteen series con- tests. Only one other team in niajor league history, the Yankees of 1921, ever lost a World Series after win- ning the first two games. The vic- tory of the Giants was made possible that year by reason of the limit of nine games, whereas the present reg- ulations restrict the battle to seven games barring, ties, ald, Lambton.
