Intermediate play-o The game was a real thriller plag- ed in record time with both teams right in the hunt from the start. It looked for a time as if the Fal- cons would take the game as they were leading in the fourth, five to three, hut Barker rallied in their half of the fifth and scored three runs that put them one up and even though Falcohs scored the tying run in their half of the sev- enth, Barkers pushed across a run to keep their lead in their half of the inning. Falcons again took the lead in the eighth scoring two runs, but yet again Barkers scor- ed a single tally and the game was tied up. After holding Fal- cons off the score sheet in the ninth the Toronto team won out with a run on E. Partridge's hit after Miss Trinkwon'had walked and Miss Hughes had hit safely. It was a real game to watch with plenty of long hits by both teams. A feature of the game was the steady playing of the Fal- con infield which was rather a re- version of form from their game here, some of their plays drawing the wholehearted applause of even the most biased of the To- ronto rooters. Falcons also had the advantage in hitting, having sixteen hits to fourteen by Bark- ers. The errors were also evenly divided, Barkers having four and Falcons seven and it might be said that only three of the Bark- ers runs came as the direct result of errors. Miss M. Elliott and Miss H. Holmes were the shining lights for Falcons, on the attack last night; Miss Elliott having four hits two of which were dou- bles in five times at bat. She got on base on an error in her other time up. Miss Holmes also got folir hits in five tries, all her hits being clean singles. The bunts laid down by Miss McComb could not have been better and helped greatly. Falcons Took Early Lead | Falcons did not start the game off in a very auspicious manner as the first two batters struck out and the third was retired on an infield tap. Added to that Miss Blain, the first batter for Barkers, led off with. a double while the next two batters hit safely to fill 5 Jem odd THEATRE Today CONSTANCE BENNETT in - - "BOUGHT" ADDED-On Stage Nights Only 8.30 pm.

That shows how the Falcons were playing. The second inning was much better as M. Elliott got her first hit and two runs came in with V. Elliott's home run to cen- tre-field. Those two runs gave Falcons the lead, to which they added another two in the third, Miss Holmes" hit scoring M. El- liott and V. Elliott. Another run came in the fourth, Miss Morgan's single scoring L, Watson who had been safe on a fielder's choice. Barkers had their big inning in the fifth. Three runs came in on four hits and an error. Miss Eis- ner's triple that lit on the right- field foul line was the feature of the inning. In this inning Fal- cons should at least have had one run as M. Elliott led off with a double and took third on a passed ball but was left as the next three batters went out in order. Fal- cons tried hard to get into a com- "manding position in the seventh and eighth but Barkers hung on like leeches and always came up to even terms again in their half of the innings. Indeed it was no disgrace to lose last night's game as every one of the Falcon players contri- buted to make the name "Osh- awa' respected. Each player made fine stops and engineered plays that are a credit to them. Indeed it was said after the game that the best team in Ontario was out of the running, namely Owen Sound Lady Greys, and the Tor- onto fans took off their hats to Falcons as the team that accom- plished that.

Today's game was the most thrilling of the ser- jes so far.: taoinshrdlumfwyprd ies so far, Wills holding the lo- cals at bay until the eighth in- ning when he weakened. It appeared as if the heaver was weakening in the seventh but the Brants could not get to kim. Day and Kipp being fanned v.ith two on. This effort was ap- parently too much, for in the next framn Davies walked, Ott grounded out, moving up the run- ner and Radiff walked. Hamon flied to left, moving the runners up. With two out, Hunt hit one toward. left field. Morrison ran cver and knocked the ball down, but could not recover. Davies scored. Land then won the game with a two-bagger down the right field line which Moise could not reach. This made it 3.2. Kela brought Land home with a single to left. This was enough, the Orono team being held in the ninth, but not before Grey had singled and Wills got on when Hunt threw wild to second for a force out. The visitors got one run in the first when Sutton singled and Rowden hit for three bases. Wills hit the first of his. two-baggers in the fifth, got to third on an infleld out and was sacrificed heme. Wills hit another one tor two bags in the seventh and got to third on a sacrifice. He was left on when the following sacri- fice was snapped up by Wolski who held the batter and runner. Kipp threw out the last man in the ninth, stealing second with a man on third. Al Hunt pitched a fine game. Ha fanned seven to Wills's six. Hunt did not give a walk, Wills passing five.

Cleveland took a five to 0 lead in the second inning, ana then with only two regulars in the line-up, Earnshaw and Dykes, the A's started in and soon were in front. A home run by Mec- Nair with a man on base contrib- uted to the victory. Earnshaw® allowed the Indians only six hits in winning his twen- tieth game of the season. Mickey Cochrane had to leave the game because of a wrenched knee. The Athletics won 18 of the 22 scason, CARDINALS CINCH NATIONAL LEAGUE St. Louis, Sept. 17.--Not con- tent with winning the National t.eague championship yesterday by virtue of Cincinnati's victory over New York, the St. Louis Cardinals downed the Phillies § to three for a clean sw2ep of a six-game series here. William Anthony Hallahan, who will probably fac2 the Ath- letics in the second gam of the werld's series, gathered a few preliminary honors by pitching a six-hit game and winning his 18th oi the season. Manager Gabby Strest started a rest cure for some of Lis vet- crans in the sixth inning when he yanked all but Hallahau and sent in substitutes. Chick Hafey hit his 16th homer of the season. EXCAVATE RUINS OF OLD PALACES Italian Government Pro- vides Funds for Inter. esting Research Work Naples, Italy. -- The Italian Government has granted funds for carrying out excavations on the Island of Capn¢ under the di- perintendent of Excavations in the Campania. He proposes to rection of Professor Maiuri, Su- reveal and display, so far as pos- sible, the ancient topography of the island, as it was in the Rom- an era. The many Roman build- ings which lie buried and have only been partially excavated so far are to be laid bare, the roads of access to them are to be made more practicable, and a general work of embellishment undertak- en so that the ruins may be pre- sented in a setting worthy of their past glory. In the days of the Emperor Ti- berius there were 12 palaces in the island, named after 12 gods, and the Emperor is supposed to have lived in a different one dur- ing each month of the year. The most important of these is the Villa Jovis, which lies at the ex- .treme eastern point of the island overlooking the Sorrentine Pen- insula. It is built on a peak, and from the cliffs on which it stéhds there is a sheer drop of about 700 feet to the sea. It is from here that the Emperor is supposed to have thrown down slaves as a pastime, and the spot is still call- ed Salto del Tiberio (the Jump of Tiberius) to-day by the inhabit- ants of the island. It is on the ruing of this palace that Professor Maiuri will begin work early in October. "Who = was Samson?"

Oshawa had secured a two- run lead and Whitely was pitch- ing invincible ball, shutting out the locals without a hit for the firet four innings. Gay drove out a home run in the second for the first run of the game, (nd in the fitth a three-bagger by Hall and Whitely's double sent ; the sec- ond run. Victorias finally scor2¢é a run in the sixth on Belcn's walk, a passed ball and a will pitek, znd Gowsell's single. In the eighth, with one out, and Peterson on first, Gay hit another terrific drive, and Peter- son cut second on the way around the bases. The ball was thrown back to the infield after Gay had made the circuit and a nlay mace st second, with the result that Peterson was called out 'or fail- ing to touch the bag, and Gay wae called out for passing a run- rer. Victorias then stepped out in the ninth and won the same with cre out, McCullough walked and D. .Bews singled, both advancing on a passed ball. Turner drove a single to left and when Hurst fumbled the grounder, both the tying and winning runs scored. Whitely pitched sensational ball at times, and struck out fif- teen men, while he restricted the locals to five hits. Gowsell was rlso effective, granting six hits and getting fine support in the pinches. H E Oshawa ¢ 010 100 000--2 6 1 Victorias 000 001 002--3 5 1 Whitely and Gay; Gowsell and Berland.

Ukrainians 'Won First From Tuxis Packing a surprisingly power- ful attack in the sixth and sev- enth innings that netted them eleven runs and scoring a run in 'the ninth with 'one out Ukrain- jians won the first game of the Church League play-off games jast night at the Stadium 12 to 11, At that King Street Tuxis almost pulled the game out of the fire in the eighth and ninth and indeed tied the game up in the first of the ninth. Ukrain- ins were good in the latter part of the game as they overcame a gix run lead with their nine run rally in the sixth. The second game of the series will be prayed this evening, weather permitting, at the stadium. Both pitchers were mest effec- tive and were steady although I'krainians got nine walks off Powell, but in fhis regard the teams we:8 fairly even as King Street also got five free passes. Patterson, of Ukrainians led the batters of both teams with four hits in five times at bat, while Shellenkoff was a close sec- ond with three. For the Tuxis team, M. Oke, J. Chappell and B.

Falcons Athletic Club Won Their Protest Over Eligibility of Players Aluminum Team Thrown 'Out of 0.A.S.A. Com. petition for Using Inelig- ible Players--Ecclestone | of Long Branch Also Ruled Out Guelph, Sept. 17.--The Alum- inum team of Toronto was de- barred from further competition in Ontario Amateur Softball As- sociation play-offs at a meeting of the sub-committee of that body held in the Y.M.C.A. here last | night, when the protest of the Oshawa Falcons was upheld The Toronto Softball Associa- tion fought the case, stating that they were unaware of a clause in the O.A.S.A, rule books which permits a player trying out in three games of higher grade sport before reverting back to a lower level, Several players on the Aluminum team have been playing for the Old Mill team in the Toronto senior and also played in the finals for the | city championship with the same | | team, and at the same time were | | playing in the Industrial Associa- | tion with the Aluminum team, which is ranked as intermediate. When the Old Mil] team was eliminated in the senior series, these players carried on in the intermediate series with the Aluminum team which also elim- inated Oshawa in. the first round play-offs in the O.A.S.A. The fact that these players, particularly Art Rodgers and Norman Taylor, pitchers, had played in more than three games in senior company before playing _ with the inter- mediates, forced the hands of the sub-committees with the result that the team was thrown out for using ineligibile players. Tho Mount Dennis Firemen have been ordered to meet the Oshawa Falcons now in a series of two games to decide the win- ner of the first round, The Fire- men are strictly an intermediate club, and have been recognized as series, the Toronto intermediate cham- pions, The London Hussars' protest was upheld against the Windsor team when the floodlights were turned on in the last half of the ninth inning of he third game of the second round play-offs, which was 'played in Chatham, and the game has been ordered replayed, with a winner having to be declared by Saturday night, Cam Ecclestone of Long Branch was barred from playing in any further games with that team when it was learned that he has been playing with the Cities Service team in the Withrow Park League in Toronto, despite the edict handed down by the O. * S.A. that he must not play in | this league if he desired to play with the Long Branch Club. The Long Branch Club has been or- dered to play in Trenton on Pri- day evening at 4.15 in the sec- ond game of the third round playoffs. : Weird Game As Trenton Lost First Long Branch Aces outslugged Trenton Continentals last night -. at Long Branch Park to take the first game of the O.A.S.A. semi- ,. finals, the score being 19 told. * The contest developed into a weird assortment of hits and er- ; iers, 36 hits aropping like haile stones in all corners of the lot.
