Askew Indians Edge Winners Boston Reds Boston, Aug. 22.--Snappy hitting | and fielding by oy Mack and Lou | Boudreau, Cleveland's young sec- | ond-base combination, and Mel Har- der's effective hurling in the clinches gave the American League leaders a 4-2 decision yesterday over | Boston Red Sox. The victQry stretched to 5'z games the Ingians' margin over the second-place ¥Deiroit Tigers, who lost to New York Yankees. | Mack's two-run homer in the second inning sent tne Indians into a lead that never was headed, and Boudreau drove in one of their other two runs. The youngsters also broke up attending Red Sox rallies by participating in three double plays. Harder allowed fourteen hits, but bore down when it counted and left twelve red sockers stranded on the | bases. Dom DiMa3zgio hit a homer in the seventh. Fritz Ostermuelier, starting hurl- er for the Sox, deserved a better fate, striking out eight and allow- ing only six hits 11 eight innings, but his teammates couldn't over- come the damage done by Mack's homer.

(By "Handlebar Hank") In just a week and a half now, the Victor Cycle Club will present its second big race meet to the people of Oshawa. As the time shortens, there is much activity among the local riders. The com- mittees are all hard at work pre- paring for this monster event, and they have just about completed the plans for the day. * + oP The entry forms have been sent out to the various racing clubs in Canada and it is expected that they will be coming in any day now. + + & If you happen to see any red | and yellow posters on any telephone polls, just stop and read them and you'll find out everything about the races. These posters came off the press yesterday and some of them have been put up already. * + The local boys are all rounding into shape nicely, having been training every night for some time now. By Labor Day, they should all be in perfect condition. The fellows want to impress the Oshawa fans of their ability as much if not more than last year, and they know | that the only way to do that is to be ready for anything the other | boys can hand them. + + @ Last Saturday on the board track at Delhi, Lance Pugh and Hal Pringle rode in the Ontario Board Track Championships and Lance brought home two medals, a first and second place. Pringle had ing to place in any of them. Hal rode a brand new frame for the first time it had been used, so may- be that was the trouble. ¢ b+ % Pugh placed second in the quar- | ter-miles, Lionel Coleman of Ham- | ilton just edging him out in what | could have been a photo finish. | Lionel has won the quarter for as | long as we can remember and there doesn't seem to be anyone quite good enough to defeat him. Cole- man is one of the smartest bike | riders in the game and has been for the past few years, always being | consistent. Better keep your eyes on this boy Labor Day. * + @ Pugh's best effort of the day was | his victory in the five-mile cham- | pionship. Coleman broke away on the second to the last lap and | Lance went after him. He passed | him almost immediately and won the race by five or six lengths, | going away. + # The all-round championship was | won by Andy McConnell of Mon- | treal, who put up a grand display | | of bike riding, winning two races end the odd second and third. Lance Pugh and Johnny Crowder |. of Buffalo, N.Y. tied for second place. Crowder won a 62% miie Saturday morning and then drove He must have stamina galore to be able to do that. * + # On Saturday, August 31, the boys be riding at Delhi, in a two-hour feam race. Frank | Ball and maybe one or two others | are thinking of going up to ride the There will also be * * # Next Friday we will give you all the information about the meet on Labor Day, so watch the paper. It Looks Like "Army" Again For Net Title Only one match remains to be played before the finals are reached in the yearly attempt to dethrone | "Army" Armstrong, the perennial champion of the Oshawa Tennis Club. { Last night Frank Burrows bowed to Armstrong in three straight sets (7-5), (6-4), (6-1). Previous to this Armstrong had a hard match with Lloyd Short. After a crowd pleas- ing game the veteran star came out on the long end of a 9-7, 6-4 score. Armstrong now waits as the finalist in the upper bracket. In the lower bracket, Doug Bur- den will battle it out with Cec Dodwell for the right to play Arm- strong in the finals. Burden de- feated Russ Learmouth and Bill Matthews in his climb to the semi- finals, while Dodwell bested Don Holden and John Harris. Harry Chinn, seeded fourth, due to his showing last year, fell by the way- side when he played Bill Matthews in the early rounds. Chinn play- ed without socks and had trouble with sore feet throughout the match, The highlights of the tourna- ment have been the brilliant play of Doug Burden, the great match be- tween Armstrong and Short, and the uphill victory of Frank Bur- rows gover Bob Bell, 3 Snead Defeats M'Spaden For Open Title i 5540 ® Sam Snead won the Seagram Gold Cup, $1,000 and the Canadian open golf title when he defeated Jug McSpaden, last year's winner, by one point. Snead, shown here with the Seagram Cup, scored a 71 against McSpaden's 72 in an 18-hole playoff for the title.

Oshawa Girls Win Game in Bowmanville "Dusty" Claus' Blues and Jerry Bird's Roamers piayed a scheduled game in Bowmanville Wednesday evening with Osnawa being the win- ners, 5-4, after 50 minutes of ster- ling ball that sent the crowd home talking to themseives. J. Stark started on the mound for Oshawa and held the Roamers to 2 uns in the 3rd inning when she was replaced by M. Hughes who also held them scoreless till the 7th in- ning when two nore runs were pushed across. D. Downey pitched a rgal game and was by no means the cause of the defeat. M. McDonald, a new catcher for the Roamers, showed that she knew what it was all about. No stars could be selected on the night's performance but the in- fields deserve special mention as runners were cut off on the bases in practically every innings. The Bowmanvilie girls were han- dicapped by the absence of regular players and coach Jerry Bird had to change his players around, hut even this did not spoil the game us a sparkling performance was put on by both teams These two teams play again Mon- day, August 26, at Lakeview Park | at 7 p.m. Be on hand for a good | game, OSHAWA - BLUES --S.

They were full value for their win last night, building up an early lead and scoring in every inning. Andely, Magee, Howarth and Kli- muk were the big hitters for the winners, who punched out hits when they meant the most good, to score runs in each frame, never less than one. Victors, on the other hand, couldn't do much with Klimuk's left-handed pitching and, although they did get two runs in the first frame, they , didn't do anything after that except for the 4th frame, when Bryant, Baxter, Cross- man and Hobbs bunched four sin- gles in a row for two runs. These four players were the big hitters for Victors while Vikings had punch all along the line. VICTORS--Bryant, cf; Baxter, Crossman, 1f; Hobbs, p; Love, Moore, rf; and Wragg, c.

Base on Balls Beats Bengals New York, Aug. 22.--Al Benton, fourth Detroit pitcher to face the Yankees, tossed four consecutive balls to Catcher Bill Dickey wita the bases full in the ninth inning to give the Yanks a 6-5 victory and a clean sweep of ihe series. The Tigers had tied the score with two runs in their half of the inning to climax an uphill battle against the hurling of Spud Chand- ler. The Yankees got away to a lead in the first when George Selkirk connected for his fourteenth homer of the season with the bases loaded. That started Hal Newhouser to the showers. With the score tiled, Red Rolfe opened the ninth with a single to centre. Tommy Henrich beat out a hit to Benton, Joe DiMaggio forced to Henricn, Rolfe taking third on the play. Selkirk was inten- tionally passed and then Benton walked Dickey, forcing Rolfe across. ¥ Everybody's welcome, admission is FREE, to this great General Motors Exhibit in the Automotive Building at the "Ex."
