PAGE SIX THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, MAY 19, 1931 LAWN BOWLERS OPEN SEASON FRI -- LEAFS WIN CLOSE GAM Cantrell And Welch Stage Pitcher's Duel & Rabbitt Scores the Winning Run Without Aid of a Hit--Hurlers Stage Real Battle With Cantrell Having Edge Toronto, May 19.--Playing a much improved brand of ball the Leafs leaped back into popular favor yesterday when they de- feated the Reading Keystones by 2 to 1 in as tight a hurling duel as will be witnessed here this season. Guy Cantrell and Johnny Welch, stellar righthanders, were in great form, and while the locals were outhit by six to three and scored ' the winning marker without making a safety they were not outplayed. Cantrell being particularly effective when danger threatened. Manager O'Neill took over the catching duties and assigned the coaching task along and third base line to Art Stack, This bit of strategy brought results. O'Neill was the same old reliable, while Stack was chuck full of pep and made a hit with the fans. As a result the Leafs showed a lot more fight,and delighted the small gathering of fans who braved the chilly breezes to see their favorites in action, Joe' Rabbitt was the hero of the fray.

Over the Fences Art, Shiver gave the locals a one-run lead in.the second inning when he poled the ball over the right-field fence but in the sixth Cantrell grooved ome for that dangerous batsman. George Quel- lich. and the Reading slugger found the range, the ball disap- pearing across the fence in left- field and tying the score. Quellich has a habit of performing this feat at Maple Leafs Stadium. He cannot be trifled with. Op three occasions the Key- stones' lead-off man reached the runway, but Cantrell bore down with telling results and no dam- age occurred, barring that to the cause of "Pants" Rowland's men, In favor of the visitors it must be said that they did not look like tailenders. They have fight- ing spirit and they tried all the time, There were only two erros, one by Jay Partridge of the Keys and one by the usually reliable Billy Rogell. However, the latter ac- cepted nine other chances with- out a miscue and figured in a double play in the first inning. There were three such triple killings; the Pennsylvanians mak- ing two to keep Welch out of more trouble, Stars Afield Jo Rabbitt and "Wid"? Math- ews supplied the fielding feat- ures, making sensational catches in the outfield, but Joe Harris also got into the calcium glare | when he went far to his right to | get Pinch-hitter Barrett's ground- {er in the final inning. Cantrell [covered first base and Harris's {throw retired Barrett and ended the game. The Leafs took chances on the runway when the occasion de- manded it, but they sidetracked the all-too-risky tactics that mar- red their play against Newark in last Saturday's double-head- er. Manager O'Neill expressed himself as being delighted with this change for the better, | | AMERICAN A'S WIN ANOTHER Cleveland, May 19.--The world champion Philadelphia Athletics, firmly entrenched in first place in the American lL.eague, yester- day won their tenth straight game, and sent the Cleveland In- dians tumbling to sixth place by slamming out a 10-to-7 decision.

Walker limited the league champions to six scattered hits, and none of the runs scored off him was earned. 'Jess' Haines, who started for the Cards, was relieved in the seventh inning and changed with his first defeat of the year. CUBS BEATEN AGAIN Philadelphia, May 19.--Rally- ing in the ninth inning and scor- ing two runs, the Phils nosed out the Chicago Cubs yesterday in the last game of the series by 5 single off Jakie May, who had relieved Baecht, yushed Bartell over the plate #ith the winning run, Arlett hit his seventh home run of the season in the second inning.

As a result it was found impossible to draw up the Senior Schedule, Whether this is the method Brampton has chosen to bring the O.A.L.A, "to terms" as not stated but it looks very much as if the Mann Cup holders are trying to play a *My Way" game. Oshawa is definitely entered in the Senior O.A.L.A, Series but whether they will carry on in the top company is an important question which will be influenced by a number of important facts, groupings drawn up by the O.A.

In addition, he showed | surprising. speed for a light- | heavyweight, both in the matter | of punching and in footwork.
