THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1940 PAGE THREE ecord Crowd Watches Oshawa Seniors Capture T.B.A. Championship Steamer Lucas Hurls Shutout While Mates Pound Out Wide Margin Over Parkdale Derbys Fifth and Final Game of T.B.A. Finals Sees Motor City Squad Establish Their Definite Superior- ity STRONG IN FIELD AND AT PLATE Crowd of 1,200 Howls Ap- proval = as Homesters Click Defensively and in Attack to Trounce Tor-! onto Rivals "Peg" Hurst's Oshawa seniers captured the T.B.A. championship, the Toronto Daily Star Trophy and the right to meet Niagara Falls in the O.B.A. finals for the senior base- ball championship of Ontario when they trounced Parkdale Derbys 9-0 at Alexandra Park on Saturday af- ternoon, It was the fifth and deciding game of the finals and a record- | breaking crowd for the season was in attendance. Below Expectations It was ideal baseball weather but the big game fell far below expecta- tions as Parkdale Derbys, surprise packet of the Inter-City Baceball League, came back to their own level and were soundly trounced by a strong, experienced club After upsetting the semi-final series and then tying up the finals, after being two games down, the ball fans of the district expected that | the sudden-death tilt might produce | a sensational picture-finish to the season's campaign but the Derbys had a bad day and the Oshawa team was "hot'--which accounts for the one-sided score, Derbys fell down worst at the plate and of course, the kig reason for that weakness was the splendid pitching effort turned in by Steamer Lucas, the Oshawa mound ace. The veteran hurler was in rare form, allowing only six scattered hits and never giving up more than one safe blow in an inning. It fact, outside of once, in the third frame, when Terry singled, advanced to third on a walk and then g fielder's choice, the Derbys didn't get another man past second-base, all afternoon. Sensational support of course aid- ed Lucas greatly in this with Red Jubenville being in the middle of two sparkling outfield duty and Dolly Dalton pull. ed off the fielding gem of Oshawa's defensive play. Not Terry's Day Pete Hastings started his young hurling star, Art Terry but it just wasn't Terry's day. He walked the first batter to face him and that run, scored by Dolly Dalton, on Matthews' timely single, in the first inning, proved enough to win the game. Wallace walked in the second, ad- vanced on a sacrifice and scored when Lucas was safe on an error by Surphlis, to make it 2-0. The big Oshawa rally came in the fourth inning, after they had load- ed the bases, without scoring, in the third. Coach Tracy Shaw start- ed it off with a double into left- field. Lucas was again safe on an error by Lewis and both advanced on a sacrifice by Dalton. Then Johnny Kitchen singled to score both runners. Next Rowden walked, after Kitchen had stolen second. Both advanced on a wild pitch so Matthews was walked to fill the bases. Then Red Jubenville belted a hit into right-field, scoring the first two runners and Matthews scored when Wallace grounded out and Derbys tried for a double-play but missed. Oshawa got a single in the 7th when Wallace singled, advanced to 3rd on two infield outs and scored on a hit by Lucas. Next inning Matthews walked, advanced on Jubenville's hit and scored when Hurst's grounder got away from Harrison. Although he had Oshawa's only miscues, Red Jubenville still grab- bed of the big limelight spot with his plays at second and three hits at the plate, in five trips, The slug- ging veteran, Moose Matthews, drew two more walks and hit twice in three trips to keep his batting aver- age near the .500 mark for the play. | offs. Art Terry and Surphlis each had two hits in Parkdale's total of a half-dozen, Defensively, the visitors Just didn't have it on Saturday, al- though Surphlis pulled off one of the best plays of the day on a one- handed pickup. APPENDECTOMY HALTS SELKIRK New York, Sept. 30. -- George (Twinkletoes) Selkirk, veteran New York Yankees' outfielder, was re- ported in "very good condition" last night after an appendicitis opera- tion. Selkirk suffered an attack in the second game of Saturday's double- header against the Senators in Washington. He was brought to New York by plane and was operated on by the Yankees' team physician, Dr, Robert E. Walsh, at St. Elizabeth's Hospital Saturday night. Selkiik, native of Huntsville, Ont, took over right field for the Yanks in 1034, replacing Babe Ruth. ple, Harrison, 85. ...... Narin,2n. ........ 3 Levensky, rf. ...... Surphlis, 3b. ss. ..

TIGERS COP PENNANT IN SHUTOUT WIN Cleveland, Sept. 30.--Rudy York, the pale-faced Indian, nullified the three-hit hurling of Bobby Feller on Friday with one lofty home run that clinched the American League pennant for Detroit Tigers. The homer came with one on base in the fourth inning and beat Cleveland Indians, 2-0, while a riot- ous crowd of 45,553, a third of them women, demonstrated its hostility to the Tigers with frequent show- ers of fruit, vegetables and eggs. One fan dropped a basket of green tomatoes out of the upper deck of the grandstand and hit Catcher Birdie Tebbetts on the | head, knocking him out but not in- | juring him seriously. This incident came after Chief Umpire Bill Sum- mers stopped the game to warn the crowd that every Cleveland player who hit a fly ball would be out if Detroit fielders were interfered with by the fruit-throwing. The game was late starting be- cause the crowd demonstrations and | frequent interruptions caused it to | drag on for two hours and thirty- | nine minutes while a cold, gloomy | dusk enveloped Cleveland's huge concrete stadium. It needn't have taken so long, for nothing counted after York's thirty- | third round-trip ticket of the sea- son after Charley Gehringer had t walked. A short time later the big score- moard in centre field ran up the 6-2 final score of New York Yankees' beating at Philadelphia, and every- body knew the Tigers were in as soon as they went through the rest of the motions. They did -- with the 26-year-old rookie, Floyd Giebell, who isn't even eligible for the World Series, check- ing Cleveland every time the In- dians threatened. It was a surprise bit of strategy by which Manager Del Baker en- trusted the vital task of clinching the pennant to the right-hander who spent all summer with Buffalo in the International League, win- ning fifteen games and losing seventeen, He kept six hits scattered, struck -- including Ben Chapman two cut six three times -- and gave only walks. Four times the Indians got | runners on base in an inning, | eft them stranded as Giebell | his cohorts battened down | hatches. Feller was a gallant figure in de- feat. He never quite got the game undsr control. Although he fanned four, he was frequently behind the walked eight men two and and the batters and Double plays pulled him out of jams | in three innings. But the whole game was wrapped in York's homer, which came two out and Gehringer on first. The count was two balls and one strike when the big first base- man reached his bat out for one of Feller's high balls and sent it as high as Cleveland's famous Termin- al Tower, but barely into the third row of the grandstand in the 'left- field corner, 300 feet from home plate. up with GREYHOUND SETS WORLD'S MARK Lexington, Ky., Sept. -- New and old stars of Grand Circuit harness racing shared honors on Friday at the Lexington trots, Spencer Scott, Hambletonian chacmpicn, won the fourth and. de- ciding heat which tied with Charles W.

Sister Mary, owned by the Hotel | Baker Stable of St. Charles, Ill, | won the $3,000 Transylvania Stake, and Acrasia, owned by Henry War- wick of Cleveland, was a surprise straight-heat victor in the sixty- fourth renewal of the Lexington | Stake. VIC FLEMING IS HURT IN SPILL Lexington, Ky., Sept. 30.--Marrad by a spill that sent Driver Vic Flem- ing of Dundas, Ont., to hospital, the Lexington trots ended its annual meeting Saturday, the final grand circuit program of the season. Fleming suffered severe head lacer- ations and possibly a skull fracture. Fleming was injured in the first heat of the Kentucky Stake, the day's feature event, when four trot- ters and sulkys collided. They were Gentleman Jim, driven by Doc Par- shall; Volation, Fleming's horse; The Lovely: Lady, driven by Glen Campbell, and Princess Pert drivén by Harry Thomas. : Thomas remounted and drove his mare back to the stands. Volation and The Lovely Lady finished the race without drivers, but Gentleman Jim remained at the scene.

Two Open Class boats, sailed by Earl Sharp with Pat Wiley as crew, and Claude Halleran with "Waddy" Oke as crew were given a handicap of six min- utes. which proved to be more than they could overcome. The series is comprised of three races, the first of which was held yesterday. Racing at this time of year has been a'- tempted before, but never attained success, due mostly to unusually cold weather settling in as the series was esbout to begin. Regular scheduled races were completed in good time, leaving one week-end in September and all of October free. Two years ago the last race of the season was sailed on October 31st in heavy weather. Halleran and Oke, sailing their their newly-acquired tered by a wide margin after the | first buoy was passed, Carter having | the lead up to this point, Sharp was | in third place, followed by D. Wood and Ralph Schofield. On the broad reach on the outside leg, Wood pass- ed Sharp, but lost his third-place position on the buck to weather on the third leg, when both Sharp and | Schofield passed him. On the second lap, Carter which lasted most of the way around the second lap. On the first two legs | of the second lap, Carter managed to maintain a srant lead of from onc | to half a boat length, The distance | between these two boats remained | so constant on the second leg it ap- peared as though they were fastened togetirer-by a tow-line. Carter lost out finally when he misjudged the | position of the second buoy, while | Sharp, who had fixed its position earlier, set his course accordingly, | | and this slight margin was enough to give him the lead, Carter crossing | the line 48 seconds later. The contest between Sharp and Carter was all the more interesting | due to the fact that one or the other would be out of the money. Each boat contributed fifty cents to the | prize money which was divided two- | thirds to the winning boat and one- third to second place boat. Accord- ingly, it appeared that Halleran had first money cinched, while Old Man Time the .race and However, in second. the Open Class sailors, it was found that Carter held first money and Schofield second, while Halleran was in Sharp last. Ideal sailing weather prevailed for row, moderate steady shore, blowing directly down the harbor entrance. which is approxi- mately 32 degrees west of true north or nearly northwest by north, true The course was buoys to port, twice around, a broad reach on the | first two legs and a beat to weather on the third.

"C" Class Protests Two protests pending in the "C' Class series which occurred in the 4th race, will be setted at the gen- ord-breaking attempts, set up a new | eral meeting of the club Thursday world's mark for trotters under a | night. J. W. McClellan, chairman of the protest committee, together with Ralph Schofield and Earl Sharp will act as judges and their decision will be given at the meeting. This decision will incidentally, decide the winner of the cup, the Kinloch tro- phy. The protests concern three of the "C" Class skippers, Howard Kane, Floyd Medand and Tom Monaghan. Mr. McClellan, according to infor- mation received from him last week, was not prepared to render a de- cision on the protests due to the fact that several rules were involved and conflicting evidence submitted. His letter to Ralph L. Schofield, chairman of the sailing committee, in part, is as follows: "In connection with protest and defenses entered as a result of the 4th race of "C" Class on September 15, 1940, I would say that I am not prepared to render a decision in this case without further inquiry from the principals involved. "It would appear to me that not one, but several rules might be in- volved in connection with these cases namely--(a) the rule govern- ing 'coming about' so as to interfere with another boat within the risk of collision zone; (b The rule giving right-of-way to a boat on a star- board tack; and (c) the rule giving a boat the right to come about at any time when there is an obstruc- tion to 'sea rcom.' I realize that all | of these chaps are new sailors and are not, perhaps, as familiar with the rules as some of our more ex- perienced men, and rather presume Sharp | and Carter were fighting it out for | third place and | the | time | 10.26 } 115.49 | Judges--G. H, Gibbard, J. Cope- | (By H.J.H) Se sr TO also that this is the reason why clear and concise descriptions of exact circumstances have not been given, nor, in my opinion, have the protests or defenses been based on proper rules in all cases, "I feel that these chaps in par- ticular, and several others as well, perhaps, might benefit decidedly from this discussion, and in any event from it and the description of specifics which we might obtain at that time, a fair and proper decision could be made whch I certainly do not feel inclined to make in view of | the meagre and conflicting state- | ments before me at this time. ". .. I would ask that you bring along, at the same time, the other protests that have been filed in 1940, and on which I would like to com- ment for at least a few moments for the benefit of those present who might become involved in similar situations in the future." Movies Shown Sound movies under the capable direction of R. C. "Ween" Day were shown at the club house last Wed- nesday evening. Varied subjects cluded Canada's war effort in the transport division and pictures of a cruise in an eighty-foot schoone: around the "Horn." This particular film depicts the cruise described in the book "Fifty South to Fifty South," (obtainable at the Public mn- | Library). The main feature of the and | Sharp squared away for a battle | show was a film secured from the firm of Ratsey and Lampthorn, Cit Island, New York City, on the art of sailmaking. It showed making a sail from start to finish, large ana small. The film was particularly in teresting to sailors, few of whom realize the painstaking effort to reach perfection employed by good sailmakers. | n- OUR BOOTS WINS BELMONT FUTURITY New York, Sept. 30.-- Our Boots, ! owned by the Wooedvale farm of Roy G.

Lewis was sensational himself, He didn't have a solitary wild pitch, walked only three Toronte batters and in 8ix of the nine innings, Lewis retired the first two batters before anybody reached first base. He allowed only five hits in the game and only the fact that three of 'them were two-baggers, and came in the first of the inning, enabled CPE. to get as many as four runs.
