"Competition In The East Miss. Rosenfeld stated that the * organisation in which she was in- 'terested, namely the Provincial Wo- men's Softball Union had 20 teams lined up in the city of Toronto and je teams in the Eastern section of ) province were heartily in favor the organization and wowd no Sour affiliate themselves. Must of teams it was pointed out had : been connected with the 2 .8.A. and had not been able to y with the Oshawa teams for reason. Most of these teams are of intermediate calibre and would be of equal ranking with the tezins . in Oshawa. Besides these teas in 'east there were also many teams 'central Ontario which were now ed. These facts in themselves be enough to decide for any ; but the league members formed through fairly auth- ye sources 'that the mumber oritati of teams affiliating themselves with 0.W.S.A. bad been considerably sd and that in ordeg to get n games the tea here have to travel considerable at great expense. The of the meeting was that the gue should affiliate with the or- tion where it_would get the most games and also get the fair- est treatment. Miss Rosenfeld stated that she did not attend the meeting fo urge the league to join up with the pio- vineial organization, but to place the situation before them and let them decide for themselves, A con- stitution was being drawn up, Miss Rosenfeld said by one of thz best sportsmen in the province, John DeGruchy, which was to be present- ed to the meeting of the organiza- tion this Saturday night in Toronto. This constitution, she said, was to be read by the executive and a copy sent to each of the affiliated league or clubs who would be at liberty to make suggestiong'that would be fol- lowed out by thle executive. Each and every club would be dealt with fairly, Miss Rosenfeld assured the meeting. She said that it was the intention of the executive to draw up a playoff schedule so that the clubs would know before hand what groups they were to playoff with and not be told to play in some town a long distance away at short notice, as had been the case in the past. The members of the Oshawa eLague regreted the inability of members of the executiv of the 0.W.S.A. to be present, but felt that they were making no mistake in taking the step to affiliate with the new provincial body. Whitby Still Doubtful The only disappointing feature of the meeting was the fact that Mrs. Harry Lott, who represented the Whitby club, was not able to give any definite assurance that the County Tows would have a team in the league this year. There had been considerable interest. she stat- ed, but this seemed to have died out and it was next to impossible to gel the girls together. There were eight of last year's players avail- able, she said, but if vas necessary to have some 15 players to carry on and the junior players of last year were not of intermediate calibre. However, an effort it to be made to get a team and a report will be Wanted--A Secretary-Treasurer The question of appointing a secretary treasurer to fill the posi- tion left vacant due to the resigna- tion of Miss Kay Wells, was left over for the time, "Bill" Harmer was appointed by the meeting as the official league representative of the meeting of the Provincial Wo- men's Softball Union to be held in the Central Y.M.C.A., Toronto at 5.30 p.m. on Saturday.

Leafs Win From Bears Toronto, May 14.--Fresh from triumphs on other fields, and with a record of having won nine cf their last eleven starts, the New- ark Bears performed at Maple Leaf Stadium yesterday afternoon and got the Bronx cheer from the Leafs, In a listless and practically fea- tureless bit of pastiming, the O'- Neillmen experienced little trouble in handing the docile Beurs nn 6- to-1 defeat. The Bears must have been eating soft food in Montreal. They looked as if they hadn't come out of their winter hibernation. It may have been Guy Cantrell's pitching or the masterly way the Leafs went about compiling a lead in the second inning that discour- aged the visitors. The locals sew- ed up the game on one hit in the P.C. .632 8 619 1 542 2 538 1 538 3 3 after that. Cantrell kept seven Newark hits well scattered, the only dangerous blow being delivered by Catcher Hargreaves, who pushed a single deep into right fleld, while uiny Zitzman réposed on sceond base, the result of a walk and a hase on balls. That run saved tho Bears from the humiliation of a shut- out, but it didn't have any cffect on- the ultimate result. The Leafs were outhit, strange as it may seem. They collected only six blows all told aud only one of this half dozen was an ex- tra base smack. They also col- lected six runs which ic a strong contrast to their work of the pre- vious day against Baltimore when thirteen hits could only provide two counters. Perhaps the l.cafs learned an object lesson on that occasion, Leafs Get Runs Cheaply John A. Milligan, a southpaw, late of the Philadelphia Nationals, undertook the pitching task of the Bears at the start and was the victim of strange circumstances. He held the Leafs to two hits over five innings, but after the second inning, he looked like a beaten hurler. In the sixth the Leafs in~ troduced three hits into one frame and that was the last seen of Mr. Milligan. Manager Al, Mamaux occupied the hill-top from then of and pérmitted no further liberties on the part of the locals, although he was welcomed by Nolan Rich- ardson, who got his only hit of the afternoon off him, Herbie Thomas, who seems to be parked at some different spot in the infleld every time he plays here started the Leafs on the way to three runs in the second frame, 4 - Henry Cotton Leads Field Southpoft, England, May 14.-- Young Henry Cotton, whose quar- rel with the British Ryder Cup team selection committee featured the early British golf season yes- terday, led the field in the $7,500.

Softball League Joins New Union Whatever hopes the Ontario Women's Softball Assn, may have had of again enlisting the Oshawa Ladies' Softball League under their ban- ner, were shattered last night when their representative, Miss Mabel Ray, failed to put in an appearance at the meeting, held in Whitby last Miss "Bobby" Rosenfeld represented the newly formed, Prov- incial Women's Softball Union and after a very convincing talk, the Oshawa League decided to join forces with the new Union.
