However, Whitby is second in the competition and anxious to overhaul the leather- makers if they can.

At Cowan's, [Bill's Place will be seeking their 4th straight 'victory and if they do take the: Coal Heavers, they'll be close to béen trying to get a switch in their schedule. Ostranders are due fo play here Saturday and the local boys feel that it would be better if Parkdale Derbys or Peterboro come here, since they have not visited Oshawa yet and Ostranders have already appeared here once. At the pre- sent time, we do not know if p they have succeeded in getting + President Bunny Morganson's co'operation, but if they do, we'll have the information for tomorrow's issue. * + 4 . Im the meantime, Ostranders are | booked to play at Alexandra Park * this Saturday afternoon and the * Oshawa team need not take them too Tightly. They haven't won a game yet, it is true, but in the last . two weeks. they have lost several [games by such scores as 2-0, 3-2 and i 4-2./The indications are quite plain _ that Ostranders have improved greatly since earlier in the season 4 'amd are just about due to knock out \ their first victory. .And there's no 3 an they would certainly like to 9 at Oshawa's expense.

The Liftleck City boys won 8-3, right in Brooklin. * + » Wonder Bread soccer team chalked up a point last night when they held the league-lead- ing Claremont eleven to a 1-1 draw. Ernie Dunstall scored the tying goal in the second half. Two veierans of the local soccer pitch, Frankie Sturch and Davie Smart, turned out with the Dough Boys. * +» Boys who are to play lacrosse in the Oshawa Minor League teams are asked to notice today's sports page. Three games are booked for Saturday afternoon and the teams with their rosters, are given else- where, Independent Loop Softball Leaders Will Clash Tonight Down at Lakeview Park tonight, leadership of the Independent Soft-' ball loop will be decided, or should be decided, when Palm Billiards clash with their toughest opponents, Pleasure Valley Ranch. Anything can happen, and likely will, when those two shalp-tongued managers, James and Dove, get to- gether. Their teams have peen threatening each other ever since their last encounter, which the Bfl- liardmen took. A .win for one or 'ne other tonight will mean the undis- puted leadership. Going strictly by the records, and by the box scores that have been turned jn, we'll call the P.V.R. to win tonight's tussle. Apprentices and Orioles will meet at Alexandra Park in the other scheduled' fixture, and while Orioles should take it (they've won two to none for the Apps). Gillard's in- spiration might spur the Appren- tices on to new "heights. Anyway, it's the one chance that either team has to take a win, so they'll both be out trying. Both games are 6:45. BENGALS BOUNCED OUT OF FIRST SPOT Detroit, July 4--Chicago: White Sox pushed Detrojt Tigers back into second place in the American league yesterday with a 12-7 victory featur- ed by Taft Wright's pinch-homer in the ninth inning with the bases full. Coupled with Cleveland's victory over St. Louis, the defeat left De- troit nine percentage points behind the Indians, whom they oppose here tomorrow in a double-neader. CLEVELAND TRIBE GO BACK TO FIRST Cleveland, July 4--Cleveland In- dians called upon young Bob Feller yesterday to stop St. Louis Browns from kicking them around. Feller responded with a seven-hit, 5-2 triumph, which returned the Ind- ians to the American League lead they lost to Detroit yesterday. It was the thirteentn triumph of the season for the kingpin of Cleve- land's pitching corps, who whiffed elevenn batters and encountered scheduled for | trouble only in the sixth inning.

HAMBLY'S CARBONATED BEVERAGES, OSHAWA . | i oR wd $-112¢C Lions Stave Off Big Threat With Win Last Night Lions won a valuable 8-4 victory over the Pet Stock Terriers at Al- exandra Park last night to main- tain their position at the top of the Juvenile Softball ladder, tied with Vikings for first place. Ed. Cornish"s Terriers made a great attempt to halt the Lions on their own diamond, but . superior hitting and a nifty pitching display by Don Sawyer proved the big fac- tors in the Lions' win. Lions loaded the bases in the first inning, but didn't get any runs un- til the third, when Daniels broke the ice with a home-rinn blow. Davies and McMillan walked and then McLaughlin singled. Fowler doubled and Sawyer singled, to make it a three-run rally, Three more runs followed in the fourth frame on a single by Monaghan and triples by Daniels and Davies. Lions got their two other runs in the sixth, Davies doubled, scored on McLaughlin's single and he ad- vanced on an infield out and scored on Sawyer's second timely bingle. Davies, McLaughlin, Sawyer and Daniels were the big hitters for the winners and this together with some stalwart defensive fielding be- hind Sawyer's five-hit pitching, pitching, kept the Terriers at bay. Terriers got one in the second, when Dawson singled and scored on a passed ball. Dawson again' singled and scored in the sixth, and in the seventh inning, Sawyer, who had been great for the first six innings, suddenly hit a wild streak after E. Barker had hit a homer and Saw- yer walked four men to force in a run, but Terriers couldn't get any more runs, leaving the bases load- ed. 'Dawson was their only player to get more than one safe hit. Morey, pitching nice ball, and McKay, who relieved him, also did a good job on the mound, but they weren't good enough to silence the Lions' bats. Terriers--Kewin, 3b.; Morey, Pp. and ss.; E. Barker, 1b.; Bathe, 2b; Smegal, cf.; Dawson, 1f.; W. Barker, ¢.; Calford, rf; McKay, p. and Branton.

Vikings Keep Pace With Lead Beat Mounties Cedardale Vikings kept pace with Lions, at the top of the Juvenile standing, with a 13-7 victory over the Westmount Mounties, last night in Westmount. Vikings pounded out a six-run rally in the second inning and that was their major scoring effort. To- wards the end of the game they started to click again and scored two in the fifth, three in the sixth and one in the seventh inning, to complete their total. Mounties couldn't do a great deal with Klimak's left-handed slants. They nicked him a little towards the finish, especially in the fifth, when they scored three runs, but that was only one big splash. At the plate, Batton, Miners, Valen- tine, Rospond and Brudek had 2ood success for the losers, but their efforts were shaded by the good batting of Salmers, Barriage and Klimuk of the winners, Vikings--Howarth, 2b.; Tutin, rf; Kurelo, 1b.; Salmers, cf.; Andeley, c.; Mage, ss.; Barriage, 1f.; Klimuk, p.; Goulding, 3b.

Taylor has been assigned the mount on Dusky Duke in the Yan- kee Handicap. This colt won the re- cent Constitution Handicap from a good field. F. A. Smith had orig- inally been scheduled to ride the horse, but when it appeared Bime- lech would be a starter, R. W. Col- lins, trainer of Dusky Duke, took a c#ll on Taylor's services instead. aass., Buffalo Wins Last of Series Over Toronto Toronto, July 4--Freddie Hutch- inson and Clyde McCullough collab~ orated to salvage the final part of Buffalo's four-game series with the Maple Leafs last night. Hutchinson supplied six-hit pitching and Mec- Cullough provided the necessary punch for a 4-2 Bison triumph be- fore a crowd of 1,700. Celebrating his recall by Detroit Tigers, the Boy Wonder from Seattle probably would have re- corded a shutout triumph had it not been for the staunch stickwork of ex-Bison John Tyler. A Tyler al- most performed a one-man victory job for Pat McLaughlin, getting three of the six Toronto hits, driv. ing in one run ana scoring .the other himself, McLaughlin flashed back to form, although he failed to survive the ninth-inning rally which broke a 2-2 tie and gave victory to the Herd. Two of the last three runs were unearned, including the one which enabled the visitors to come from behind a 2-1 count in the seventh to tie the score at 2-2. McCullough shoi tae Bisons ahead in the second inning with a single that scored Les Fleming from second with two out. Fleming had walked and stolen second. Chapman's two base wild throw on Outlaw's grounder paved the way for a second Buffalo run in the seventh. Scarsella sacrificed Outlaw to third and the Leafs elected to pass McCullough. Unfor- tunately McLaughlin became cere- less and threw one too close to the plate. The Bisons backstop leaned over and spanked a single past Lodigiani for the run. ECCARD BLIGHTLY INJURED New York, July 4--Jockey R. Ec- card complained of a bruised foot and an injured hand following the running of the last race on Tuesday. The boy explained that when he was passing the prostrate Conde Rico, the levter lashed out and kicked him on his foot and hand. MINOR LACROSSE LEAGUE GAMES BOOKED FOR SAT.

Cheeseman was called upon to make several bril- liant saves. ' During one of the Claremont power plays Claremont scored with an unsavable shot. After this reverse Wonder Bread began to hold their own and both goals were threatened on occasions. Half time came with Claremont leading 1-0. Oshawa Evens Count On the resumption of play Won der Bread pulled a surprise on the fans when they had the evergreen Frankie Sturch and Davie Smart on the forward line. Right away they made their presence felt by some clever combination which had tell- ing effect on the Claremont eleven, At the twenty-minute mark, Snowden and Murphy combined nicely to the Claremont defence. The ball was passed to Dunstall who scored, making the count one-- all. With ten minutes to go, Clare mont pressed hard but could not penetrate the Oshawa rearguard and the game.ended one-all. team: Cheeseman, B. Gentry, 8. Gates, P. Walters, W. Holyhead, E. Lutton, J.
