Intermediate playoffs, by a score of 11 to 3, scoring ten points in the second half, to win the decision, the approval of the fans, and the Fight to meet the winners of the Sarnia Petrolia series, in the finals for the Ontario Championship. The Blue Devils played great rug-® by on Saturday afternoon and they won the victory only after a hard fight, against a team which battled desperately every minute of the way and extended the Blue Devils almost to the limit. McCormicks started right from the kick-off and played a hoofing game, which resulted in Hubbell being roughed twice in the first quarter, to give the visitors a two-point lead. Oshawa managed to cut this down to half before the whis- tle blew for the rest period, In the second session, the locals gave a great display. They got possession when a fake kick, on the third down, was caught cold and then thanks to some smart work by Rowden, scored a touchdown. 'A few minutes later, Hubbell kicked for another single and then before the quarter ended, Rowden scored a beautiful field goal to make Oshawa's total 10. Each team got a single in the final quarter, Shields and Vaile Sar The visiting aggregation produced a snappy set of pigskin punishers and several members of their squad "made a very favourable impression on the local fans. McCormick's pos- pess a line built up of capable offen- sive players. McKendry and Hob- son did some lovely bucking but the work of Shields, in this department, swas outstanding. His plunging was spectacular. Twice he battered his *way right through the secondary de- {fence and was not stopped until he umet the half line. One of these lunges gained thirty yards. Ross icked smartly for the losers and if we had been given a little more pro- ! jection, he would have been much nore effective. He was hurried in 3 yearly all his kicks, two of them be- ng blocked. Keene played well on the backfield but the man who did the sensational work was "Christie Vaile. This boy, who wore a dif- the winner of series. known until after the second game, play was smothered also next gained nothing. Hubbell and Merkley was hurt mak- ing the tackle. on the first play and This 'was a tough break. McKendry tionally well. He made a gain on every attempt and was a big factor in the defensive play. As usual the "Three Musketeers," Wilson, Gray and Logan, were right in there. "Julius" Gray had a great day Sat- urday and was right at home with the McCormick snap, Hill, who also turned in a good game. Both tack- led like fiends but at the end of the game, Alex was more prominent than Hill, who was done out, Bill Tribble made his presence felt yesterday, He made one or two fine plunges. He was tempted to retaliate when Hob- son hit him but he curbed his tem- per and Hobson was the only one to draw a penalty. A few minutes la- ter, Bill gave Hubbell a beautiful pass, which enabled Oshawa to make a long gain. Besides turning in a strong offensive game, Tribble made some great tackles. Bond made some fine tackles, one being especially good. He and McDonald did some good clipping. Boultbee, Kohen and Wig- inton did some nice tackling. El- liott, Johnston, Cutler and Cook all played well, Murray Johnston was the only in- jury in the game and it is not very serious. The boys must now prepare for the finals, which will be against the Sarnia-Petrolia Their opponents will not be which is being played Wednesday. When the Blue Devils will play again is not yet known, THE GAME Hubbell kicked off and carrier was smothered, the ball- The first and the Ross kicked to Blue Devils fumbled lost the ball, "DOC." ROWDEN Versatile local athlete who played a prominent part in thé General Mo- tors' Blue Devils' victory, over Mec- Cormicks, on Saturday afternoon. "Doc." has been playing great rugby this season and he was in fine form Saturday. Of the ele- ven points "Doc." accounted for eight, get- ting a touchdown and scoring a field-goal. He has kicked quite a number of field-goals this season. In addition, "Doc." did some valu- able defensive work, on Saturday. He should be a real threat to the iti in the ing finals. PP down and the ball was fumbled but Ross got it. They kicked and the ball was blocked partially, Rowden got it and ran forty yards, Wigin- ton was hurt stopping a buck and so was Logan. They kicked to Hubbell who did the same on the next down, Half time came with the score, McCor- micks 2, Blue Devils 1. .Hill and several other of the visitors were all in when the whistle blew and it was quite apparently a very welcome sound to them. The Blue Devils were not feeling too pert, themselves. Third Quarter Rowden returned their kick4o their thirty-eight yard line. McKendry took the first buck and he was hurt making a good gain. The next was stopped and when they tried a fake they lost the ball when Gray and a few of the boys downed the carrier. They were offside and the Blue De- vils got a real break, Rowden broke away and took the ball to within scored by the locals, Oshawa Public School Srs.

This year, at Oshawa, a Junior game was played gs well, the St. Catharines team winning by 12 to 0.

Senfor Game St. Catharines kicked to Oshawa. Oshawa failed to make yards and Brnes sent a beautiful kick down the field. St, Kitts failed to make good use of their possession and Oshawa secured the ball. Barnes got away for a touch on a nice piece of cambination play. Score, quarter time, Oshawa 5, St. Kitts 0.

Meeting Well Attended Toronto, Nov, 17 -- Indicating an- other successful season the 41st an- nual meeting of the Ontario Hockey Association;- held in the Royal York Hotel, on Saturday, was probably the largest, most representative and en- thusiastic in the history. of the oldest hockey organization in the world Delegates, representing clubs from all parts of the province controlled by the Ontario branch of the Can- adian Amateur Hockey Association were present. At the conclusion of the convention they attended a lun- cheon given by the O.H.A. executive and at night were the guests of the Maple Leaf Hockey, Club and the Arena Gardens at the League fixture between and Philadelphia. the Leafs Adoption of several amendments to the constitution and playing rules and the election of the executive commit- tee provided the chief business of the meeting, but there was a gener- al discussion by the officers and dele- gates on a number of points tending toward the improvement of hockey, Boost the Juniors In his farewell address Retiring President Richard Butler of Lindsay expressed the hop. that many team managers and couches attend the yearly meeting of the referees, which will be held as usual this season just prior to the opening of the schedules He also stressed the importance of developing juniors Second Vice-President-elect S. Dudley, of Midland, pointed out that the O.H.A. had provided schol- arships at University of Toronto Queen's University, and University Geo of Western Ontario, but thought the | fact that should be broadcast thor- oughly so that students in high school and collegiates would know more about them, terms, etc It Looks Like SARNIA Apparently, the Sarnia Wander- ers do not wish to be kept out of the Ontario Intermediate Rugby, finals any more than the Blue Devils dis- liked the idea of elimination. In the first game of the semi-final series of Western Ontario, played on Saturday, Sarnia defeated Petro- lia by a score of 12 to 2. gives Sarnia a comfortable margin for the return game, which will be played on Wednesday. look very much as if the Sarnia Wanderers will once again meet the Oshawa Blue Devils in the finals for the Ontario Title.

About 17,000 persons, the largest crowd to ever see a Big Four fix- ture, were held in almost silen: suspense as the bitterest of grid foes fought a battle of life and death and the Bengals, though tied on the game, lived for further conquests in the Canadian play- downs, while the Scullers passed away for the season, glorious in defeat. The threc-all score is a just criterion of the play, a mark for the annals of foothall that must always be considered with thé great games of the Canadian grid- iron, Argonauts needed a victory to halt the mad march of the moun- taineers, to atone for defcat sus- tained early in the schedule, but they failed hy the smallest of mar- zing, the ties being just enough to give the Jungle Kings the ceswn they have held for three successive seasons. Hamilton's mighty ma. chine nceded every speck of its en- ergy to hold the young Oarsmen who fought as though Inspired against a force that has swept aside all opposition In Canada with a trail of victories that stretches to the far-aff Pacific Coast, Saturday's game was a man's game, a desperate hattle from fires to finish, in which every player gave every ounce. Every inch of the chalk-marked field was bitter- ly fought for and the difference Queens Win Title - Beat McGill 12-0 Kingston, Nov, 17.--3ehing the between the teams can be measur- ed by the fractions of inches that meant scores and advances of the yard sticks. Three times the Tig~ ers made yards by about the width of the ball when failure probably meant a championship, while 8 slip of the foot lost. Frank Turville a split second when he was drop- ped for the tying rouge on the edge of the Argos' counting zone. It was football of the hardest" kind, clever strategy, cruel, crurhe ing play, drama crowded into ale most every move of every man with the championship swaying in . the balance. Hamilton was forc- ed for the first time in years to stage an uphill battle and came through on top, overcoming a two- point deficit in the first period, the handicap of losing the most im- portant cog in their marvel ma- chine and a determined Double Blue squad. Argonauts waged an aerial attack against the mighty Tiger line and the score was even, a fitting end to such a struggle. Argos Get Early Lead Frank Turville"s toe gave Ar- gonauts a two-point lead In the first period, but the Bengals came back and evened the count at two- all before half time. Turville again hoofed the Oarsmen to the lead with a long punt into the goal zone and again the Tigers came hack to even the score at the start of the final period. The re- mainder of the game was a see saw struggle with (fast-tiring teams, strength sapped from the terrific strain, playing, praying for a break, Dave Sprague, a galloping mass of muscle, was the hero, with his wild charges ripping through Ar- gonauts' defence for major gains to put the oval in position for scores. Sprague, the find of the football season, pinch-hitted for the fin- jured Brian Timmis, Tigers' best ground gainer, and with almost unhuman power shook off Argo tacklers for most of the Bengals' progress from scrimmage. Nine times the Jungle Kings made yards to Argos' three and almost every advance was the result of Spra- gue's super play. He was the star Jn a game of many stars, the main man in bolding the scullers even and keeping the Big Four cham- pionship in Hamilton. Every play 'in the game seemed to have a bearing on the ultimate result, so close was the battle, so even were the teams. Little slips of the feet, split seconds, minor mistakes were all of major import. ance. Onc step cost Argonauts a point when Frank Turville triéd to fight his way out with the tying point of the game, inches gave the Tigers yards three times on the third down when failure meant broke through for a good buck and then Ross faked a kick and ran for- ty yards. They tried a buck which failed. Offside cost them a down and then they kicked to Hubbell who was rouged for a point. Elliott took Oshawa's first buck and Ed.

The value of being in condition was clear- ly demonstrated in Saturday's battle and the Blue Devils finished strong- er than they started, and they started well. McCormicks got the jump on them when they gained possession, as the Blue Devils fumbled on their first play. Play was even with plenty of sparkling plays and good Fugby being displayed in the first half o the game and the score stood at 2 out with a hurt knee, as his tackler, broke away for a short gain. awa were : spaffled a loose ball to give Oshawa "In the second half, the Blue Bis began to reap the fruits of their heavy plunging tactics of the first half. They gradually moved the ball further into McCormick territory and when the Playground boys tried » fake-kick on the third down, they were caught and lost possession. Whey were offside on the next play and then "Doc" Rowden made a reat run to put the ball within three ards. Two bucks put the ball with- one yard and then after a huddle, owden was given the ball and yrossed over for the touchdown. The Blue Devils proved themselves to be a smart rugby team In Satur- flay's game. "Doc" Rowden held the imelight on the Oshawa side of the pre scoring eight of the eleven wpoints. | His playing was practically Fouitiess. He was called upon for jeveral tackles and his offensive work * was A-1. He made two or three valu- ble excursions into McCormick ter- itory, took the ball across the line or the only touchdown of the game end in addition, scored a great field 1. 'Scott Hubbell 'was right on his game and his kicking was superb. It was his best display of 'the season 'on a local field, as far as punting goes. His ball-carrying was also good but he did not ances as usual.

New York Americans Defeat Maroons 1-0 ------ New York, Nor. 17.--The New York Americans provided a fitting opening for the 1930 New York Na- tional Hockey League season last night by defeating the Montreal Maroons, 1 to 0 in a typical early- season game, Hampered by warm weather and soft ice, the teams showed little in the way of fine play although they had plenty of speed and enthusiasm. Nomie Himes, little American centre, made the one successful scoring play early in the third period.: Breaking through alone when each team had one man in 'the penalty box, Himes got around Lionel Conacher, who man- aged the Americans last year, and lifted a shot past Flat Walsh for the onlp score, the Tricolor, and came as a well earned honor for they outplayed the McGill in every department except in line-plunging. It is doubtful if Carter has ever kicked a better game. In the sec- ond quarter of the game he drove three punts which travelled over 756 yards, and it was his kicking that nullified all the gains the Redmen were making through the line. At that the Tricolor would probably have been held to a smaller score had it not been for the loose handling of the ball by the McGill backs, Hammond and Talpis both fumbled on their own line in the last quarter and the re- sult was that Queen's recovered each time, getting a touchdown on the first misplay and a place- ment kick on the second. McGill plunged - for yards six times during the game, while Queen's were able to move yard- sticks only twice, but Queen's were playing that style of rugby that was making long gains for them when Carter was cutting down MeGill's margin of yardage and sending terrific punts down the field. He greatly outkicked both Lovering and Talpis, and 'it was his hoofing that kept the play around the McGill end and even- tually wore down the back-fielders so that the inevitable fumbles materialized. \ Varsity Jrs. Beat Queens for Title Varsity juniors humbled Queen's in the final game of the Intercol- leflate series on Saturday morn- ing at Varsity Stadium by 9 to 3 and took the league title, Along with the championship went the Jimmy Douglas trophy. On their home field, Varsity were by far the better team and, while their mar- gin of victory was not impressive, their share of the territorial play left little doubt about their super- jority. As has been the case in all their games to date, Harold Arnup's brilliant booting. and backfield generalship were prominent in the victory. It was his long hoof in the first féw minutes of play and his speedy sprint around the eng of the wing-line in the same session that gave Varsity a ' 6 to 0 lead.
