O.M1 BEAT FALCONS--"BIG FOUR" GAME AT STADIUM TONIGHT O.M.L. Defeat Falcons By Virtue of Hitting To Tighten League Race By Geo. CampeLL, Sports Editor : QPORT SNAPSHOTG Malleables Hit Hard and Often to Earn Clear-cut Victory Over Rivals -- Large Crowd Pleased to See O.M.1. Bats Subdue Strong Falcon Team -- --Game Is Exciting But Both Teams Make Too 'Many Errors Even the mighty fall by the wayside. That tells the story of last night's game at the stadium between last year's group win- ners, the former Chevs. and the O.M.I. The final score was 22 to 11 in favor of the O.M.I and that is just about the margin of victory that the winners deserved as they played consistent ball all the way and showed that they are a power to be reckoned with in the league race. The Falcons' went -in to bat first and ran in three runs on two hits and an error, but the O.M.I. came back in their innings and pushed over four runs to take the lead. That did not last very long as the Falcons scored another five runs and made it eight to four. O.M.I. were not so good in their half and failed to score and it looked as if the steam roller was well on its way. However, after holding their opponents safe in the next inning, O.M.I. went out and scored two runs to make the score 8 to 8. That was the end of the Falcon threat as they failed to score in the next five in- nicgs while O.M.I. kept pecking away until they went ahead in the sixth. That was not to he the end of the Falcons' troubles. Not by a long way. Just to make their position sure O.M.I. scored five runs in each of the seventn and eighth and batted rounds in each frame. Incidentally Faicons enly scored in three innings. the first second and fourth, after which they seemed to wilt: but O.M.I. seemed to be inspired with the ambition to win and sccred in every inning but the sacond and ended up with a burst of scoring in the last two innings to make the game sire, On the game the O.M I, were stronger on the offensive than their opponents, with twenty-four hits to sixteen.. They made more miscues, however, but - only by one, Falcons being credit2d with eight and O.M.I. with nine. 0. M.1. displayed real hitting power Misses Siblock, Pipher, and. MecJn- tyre each getting four hits. Fal- cons also had their heavy hit- ters but their blows did not 'come at opportune moments, Misses ¥. Elliott, G. Newman, F. Lott and G. McComb each getting three hits, however there were three members of their team who es- caped without an error.

Open Golf Title Toronto, June 24.--Although weather conditions at the start of play yesterday morning in the 36-hole medal competition for the ninth annual open championship of the Ontario Golf Association at the Summit Club were far from promising as far as golf was concerned, they improved as the day advanced and before the !ist of the 102 competitors had com- pieted their two eighteen hotes, there had been a lot of fireworks and the competitive record for the course had been bettered four times. Par for Summit layout 13 71 and previous to yesterday it had never been beaten but in the afternoon four players turned in 70's. To make the day all the more exciting, three players tied for tbe championship, Arthur Hul- bert, of Thornhill; Dave Spittal, of St. Andrew's, both former win- ners and Jimmy Johnstone of Rosedale who once before tied foi the title. The trio each had aggregates of 144, Hulbert h2ing tbe first to finish, then Spittal and then Johnstone and after him there were several Others Who had chances of either catching or possing the pace-setters but one after another, their threats peter- ed .out.. . Hulpert came in with the first 70 to add to his 74 of the morning and a few minutes atterwards Spittal, who had tak- en 74 in the morning, brought ia tte next 70. Johnstone came along to duplicate his 72 of the merning round. The quartette of record: breakers was completed by the arrival of Arthur Crutten- den. the Summit pro, and Major J. N. C. Martin, of Kingston. Tuxis Win Tilt With K.Y.P.L. King Street Tuxis clashed with thelr inter-church rivals, the King Street Young People's League, last night in an Oshawa Church League softball 'game at Alexan- dra Park and the "Square" boys emmerged with a clean-cut, 12 to b vietory. The winners had a distinct edge on their rivals and established their superiority in a decisive win, althongh they did not score the runs which gave them the mar- 'gin of victory until late in the game. The score at the end of Lhe fifth was. 5-2 for the winners and both teams had a big inning in the eighth, to increase their to- oop cumol | ovo~ouanuny ~ 13] ve | El ECE SEE WI OHO ADD =e [CRT | HEED wa] | or --- plate; Fair, 'tals considerably. - Better defensive play and ex- cellent support enabed Powell to Keep hig rivals well in check, He hurled nice ball, but not too nice, and. the Y.P,L. did not get a For the winners, Peterson, Chappell and Powell, three successive bat- ters, formed the "Terrible Trio" and each reached first base savely on three occasions.

Stadium Tonight After the sensational start which the Oshawa "Bib Four" men's softball league got away to on Monday night, there should be another big crowd at the Motor City Stadium tonight, to see the second game of the series. Times and Robson Leather op- pose each other tonight and what a battle this will be. The "News- ies" took the Tannery into camp on Monday night, the same being resented by the leather makers and tonight's game will be a great | attempt on Tannery's part to get revenge, These two teams are very even- ly matched and have great batting strength. Those fans who saw the Mike's Place-Falcon game at the Stadium on Monday night were ver y favorably impressed and they should all be on hand to- night, in addition to the support- ers of the two teams concerned. It is expected that the rival managers will send in Magill, for Times, and Parfitt, for Tannery, to do the hurling. Both teams will be in full strength and the game will not be won until the last put- out has been made. The affair gets under way at 7.15 p.m. sharp. This gives every- one plenty of time to be on hand for the start. Motor City Stadium is the place and the admission is only 15 cents, wi ut RE Plenty of Goals in Pro. Box Lacrosse; Maroons Win First Montreal, June 24.--To the acclaim of over 5,000 spectators, a new sport, professional lacrosse, made its bow at the Forum here last night, Montreal Maroons de- feating Montreal Canadiens 9 goals to 7 in the curtain raiser of a four team league, Toronto Maple Leafs and Cornwall will get into action later this week. The game was played with sev- en men on each team, together with ample substitutes, The in- door floor was covered with a cushioned green surface. Mar- | oons shot into an early lead, were | overtaken and passed by Can- adiens, but a three-goal rally in the later stages of the third per- ied brought them victory. Three periods of 20 minutes each, as in hockey, were played. Maroons--Goal, Coutie; de- fense, Spring Reeves; centre, err; attack, O'Regan, Roberts, Conacher. Alternates--D. Roche, Morris, Penny, Stewart and Mayo, Canadiens -- Goal, Williams; defense, P. Lanbevin, Thomas; centre, Bounlaine; attack, DeGray, Dussault, Vincent. Canadiens alternates--N. Lan- | gevin, Lalonde, Lafrance, McAvoy | and L'Heureux. Referces--Brady and Secours Ulster United Play A 2-2 Draw With Thistles In Connaught Cup Game Toronto, June 24--Ulster Unit- ed held Hamilton Thistles to a 2-2 tie in the Connaught Cup series at Ulster Stadium last night in one of the hardest- fought games of the competition to date. The Redhanders. al- though playing under difficulties, caused by injuries, had a slight advantage and might easily have won, McCrone, Galloway and Moir were missing from the local line- up and so several reserves were pressed into service, with Fra- . ser, the sub-custodian, taking the . right wing position. Ulster miss- ed a penalty and Clulow's goal was disallowed, as Fraser was standing off-side. SENATORS REDUCE LEAD Detroit, Mich., ington gained on the Philadelph- ians by winning both ends of Yes- terday's doubleheader from De- troit, the first being a slug fest which was taken by 10 to 3, and the second a brilliant ten-inning June 24--Wash+ # hurling duel between Freq Mar- | berry and George Uhle, ending 4 to 0. In the opening game, Washing ton made 1 hits off Hoyt, Herring and Sullivan, one of these being a home run by Kuhel with none on. C The RECORD SPEAKS For ITSELF Hoss upon thousands of miles--over mountain ranges and storm-tossed seas--undcr sunny skies and through misty banks of clouds-- these are the trials of those who would establish air supremacy. In a cigarette, quality is the deciding factor--and Turret's long established rccord grows more impressive year by year. After all, nothing can replace geod, honest tobacco; grown and ripened right out in the field under nature's 'own sunlight--nothing artificial about that--and the high quality is "inbred."
