From the very start of © game, Falcons never had a nce and were never near king the speeding Chosen fiends who were rolling up a commanding lead in the first two "innings. The big flash of the game the,ten run splurge by the inners in the fifth inning. The game was surprising to say the least as Falcons who usually 'ean come from behind with a big rally were unable to do much with the delivery of Miss Sheri- den, who last year did some of the hurling for the Whitby team In fact all the hits they coud muster amounted to six, truly a i poor showing against a team 'whom they have defeated easily pefore. Perhaps the deciding factor in the game was the eigh- teen errors chalked up against ' the losers who could not seem to do anything right. As compared "with the poor showing of the Fal- cons, Chosen Friends got guod 'pitching and amassed twenty-one = ts and only had four errors all "of which were spread over the e. WET the first inning Chosen ' Friends pushed over three runs and after holding the Falcons safe, scored four more to take a commanding lead. To this total 'the winners addél another run '4n the third. Falcons, however, came to life in the fourth and scored two runs on two hits and an error after two were away. Chosen Friends did not seem to be content with the large lead ai ready run up and went on a bat- ting bee in the fifth and scored no less than ten runs to put the 'game away for keeps, Falcons pwever, did not give up by any 'means and scored a run in each of the fifth and sixth innings, hut could. not score after.

Going into the eighth trailing by nine runs, the Sox fell on Pen- nock, Ruffing, Gomez and Weav- er for 12 safe hits, including a homer, two triples and three doubles, to win the game. Fif- teen batsmen went to the plate during the inning and every player in the lineup except Sulli- van and his substitute, Jeffries, made at least one safe hit and scored at least once. Scottish Win In Semi Finals Fort William, July 29.--Tor- onty Scottish, soccer champions of the East, qualified 1gst night to meet New Westminster Royals, defending titleholders in the Do- inion finals by defeating Fort William Legion 2 to 1 in the sec- oid of a two-game semi-final ser- fies here. Scottish won the first contest Monday night 3 to 2 and the round 6 to 3. The Toronto squad clashes with with Westminster at Winni- peg Thursday and Saturday in a best two out of three series. A third game, if necessary, will be played on Monday. Scottish were just as herd sed to down the locals in second encounter as in first, and both games were typi- cal cup ties. A tricky wind made the play more difficult last night and fortune favored the Legion in the draw, forcing the visitors to play against the breeze at the outset. It was a grim struggle el the way. ROYALS DEFEATED BUFFALO, 12 to 10 Buffalo, July 29.--In one of the longest games since night baseball was inaugurated here, the Montreal Royals defeated the Bisons 12 to 10 here last night. The game lasted 3 hours and 17 minutes, and seven twirlers toiled, four for Buffalo and three for Montreal. Although outhit, the Royals cashed in mainly through the medium of Gulléy's long-distance clouting. The Montreal outfield- er had a grand slam for the night, a homer, triple, double and single in four trips to the plate.

The Leafs had little diffieulty in subduing the locals, particularly in' the last period when they had everything their own way. Shannon, who played goal for Ochawa General Motors when they captured poth the Mann Cup and the Lally International Tro- phy, made the plunge into the big game last night, and turned in a most credtable performance. Shannon stopped dozens of shots from all angles and had an edge on Large on the evening's play. Cernwall's negro aces, Percy, Rube and Earl Whiteford, were cutstanding on the local line-up, while Spencer, White and Pim were in the limelight for the Tor- ontos. Canadiens Win Over Maroons Montreal, July 29.--Montreal Canadiens last night outsped and outshot their local rivals, the Ma- roons, to capture a scheduled Na- tional Professional Lacrosse Lea- guo match, 14 goals to 5. The win, coupled 'with the Toronto Leaf's victory over Cornwall, put Canadiens and Toronto again in- to a tle for first place in the league, 3 Canadiens sparkled with their fiery speed and brilliant, combin- ation to overwhelm the heavier Maroons, and two match penalties received by the' losers did mot the leader of Maroons' attack, received a match penalty after an argument with the referees cover a minor during which he ae- cidentally or otherwise butt-end- ed Referee Gauthier under the eye; and Nels Stewart also com- mitted the error of arguing abug- ively when penalized. Replace- ment of the men was allowed af- ter twenty minutes of play. Earnshaw Batted Out : But Grove Saves It July Philadelphia, 29.--A three-run rally in the eighth in- ning yesterday started by Al Simmons with his fifteenth home run of the season, gave the Philadelphia Athletics their sec- ond straight triumph over St. Louis, 6 to 3, The victory was the champions' fifteenth in a Tow on the home grounds. Mose Grove, who relieved Earnshaw in the eighth, with the score tied, a man on third and of the season and twelfth in aid their cause. Lionel Conacher | none out, received credit for the, game, It was his twenty-first win Root Scored 12th Win at Expense of Phils. Chicago, July. 29. -- Charley Root, aided by the batting of Hornsby, Hemsley and Blair, won his fourth straight victory during the present home stand against the Eastern clubs by beating Phil- adelphia yesterday afternoon, 6 to 3. The Chicago Cubs took a 2 to 1 edge in the series by the vie- tory, Root's twelfth of the season. Blair's double drove in a run in the second off Phil Collins, and Hemsley"s home run with Blair on dase put the Cubs ahead in the ft After the Phil had tied the score the Bruins put on the win- ning rally in the eighth. After one was out, Barton was hit by a pitched ball. Hornsby then don- bled to left to score him with the winning run. Blair's home run counted the Rajah to make the game safe. 35 Hits Pop Off Opponent's Bats Rochester, N.Y., July 20.-- Twenty-seven runs, 35 hits, 8 er- rors and a parade of 11 pitchers, along with 23 other players, com- bined to keep a crowd of more than 6,000 baseball fams busy yesterday at Red Wing Stadium. They were busy, slightly so if they tried to keep score, for more than three hours as Rochester downed Toronto, 15 to 12. Any fan could be satisfied with yesterday's pastime as there were thrills, much scoring and even some innings in which an air- tight brand of ball was played. Glenn Liebhardt, for instance, pitched to six hitters and did not allow a Red Wing to reach first base before he gave way to a pinch hitter in the big Leat eighth, Leaf t s Wipe Ralph Judd likewise was effec- tive for three innings, giving but one hit for three innings preceding that big eighth of the visitors. The scoring of nine runs in the one sessin by the visitors, to give them a lead of 12 to 10, wiped out what seemed a safe victory margin of 10 to 3 for the Wings as they entered the frame, But to make the eighth long to | be remembered, the Wings came right back in their half and count. ed five times to make the final score 15 to 12. During the Leafs' big session seven hits were pound- ed off Judd, Littlejohn, Foreman and hill as Southworth poured pitchers from the dugout to, the bull pen to the mound. Leafs' equally as hard, tried to stop the Wings by starting with Harrison in place. of Liebhardt and winding up with Frank Barnes, LISENBEE EF! enbee held the Detroit Tigers to ma were garnering 18 off tes 'Barl Whitehill and the Boston | Red 80x detested Detroit & to And the "FECTIVE 5 .

The Anglicans gained an early lead, collecting two goals in the firs# period and one at the start of the second, but from then on the Bengals battle back, and bn- ly a return to early form pre- vented the Anglicans from going down to defeat, While the scoring was lower than usual at the seven-man la- crosse game play was clever, with the defences strong and the at- tackers had double trouble on thelr paths to the goals with the home men backing up fast to help out the rearguard. The largest crowd of the season attended and was treated to a great finish when Hamilton rallied to come within one of tying the score. The first two periods did not supply any great thrills, although* filled with high class lacrosse, but in the last half, when the Tigers all went on the offensive there was plenty of excitement, Chief Thomas proved popular with the crowd from the start, and the veteran Indian deserved the ap- plause. Thomas was the hest of the Tiger staff and was in the thick of almost every play with his aggressive dodging style. The Chief was limited to one goal but it was not his fault that he did not get more for he never stop- ped trying. St. Louis Cardinals Win From Braves St. Louis, July 29. Little "Sparky" Adams beat out a bunt in the eighth, went to second on a wild throw, to third on an infield out and raced home after a long fly by Jake Flowers to give the St. Louis Cardinals a 1 to 0 victory over the Boston Braves here yes- terday afternoon. From the first inning on, two veterans, Jess Haines for the champions and old Tom Zachary for the Braves, engaged in a pitching duel. Although the victim, Zachary held the Cards to six hits while Haines was nicked eight times. The victory was the eighth of the season for Haines. Christ came to reveal what right- eousness really is.--Matthew Arn- old, TANNERY WIN FROM TIMES, 20-5 In a South Ontario fixture played at Alexanéra Park last night the Robson Leather \Boys did not even give the "Newsies" a chance to come close and walked off with the game by a score of 20 to 5. The Times team were forced to use two pitchers and Campbell who replaced Gar- rard in the fifth was not much improvement over his predeces sor. The only time the '"New- sles" were in the game to any extent was in the early innings when they had a two to one lead in the third inning but after that they were not in the pic- ture by any stretch of imagina- tion. The fact that the Times team had not had a game for sometime may have made them rusty but the fact remains that they did not make an impressive showing, Box score: 010 471 115--20 110 110 001-- 5 The teams: Tannery-- Branton, cf; B.

The Bucs scored twice in the fourth but Hubbell shut them out for the rest of the game. The Giants did not get start- ed until the heat forced Ervin Brame out of the game in the sev. enth, Then Leach tripled with two on base to drive in the win- ning runs as Spencer took the hill. Hubbell helped win his own game by hitting a double and two singies, drove in two runs and carried another over himself, while Bill Terry collentad p = a double and two walks in five trips to the plate, The defeat ended Pittsburg's five-game winning streak. A poor original is always better than a good imitation. OSHAWA PIGEONS ESTABLISH RECORD The fact that Oshawa's racing pigeons were as good as could be found anywhere, was proven on Saturday last when six of their birds, which were liberated at Danville, Illinois, U.S.A., at 6.35 a.m., arrived in Oshawa at 7.40 p.m., having flown five hundred and twenty miles in a little over 13 hours. This is a record for Oshawa, as it is the fastest time ever made by Oshawa pigeons from the five hundred and twenty mile station, and it goes to show the real value of the pigeons, owned by the Osh- awa fanciers. The following is the result of the race giving the yards per minute, flown by the first four birds timed in, also the position taken by their owners: V.
