Boh Powers and Lawrence shared L maind duties for Cay Lumber and both boys did a good job, giv- ing McGrath a well needed rest. They got three strikeouts between them and allowed six hits. Ab Gil. bert pitched for the Combines and his mound work was marked by 11 whiffers, which is mighty fine work. Combines scored their first run in the top of the first frame. They got the run on two walks and a single by J. Jozkoski. Then in the top of the second, having had no reply from the Lumbermen, the Combines scored another run off the bat of O'Connor who blasted out a lovely four-master. Oaymen were not tog far behind when in the last of that inning they cramped a runner gver the plate. Lawrence, who singled to open things came all the way around the paths on two hits and an error. Men were left on second and third in that frame when.the needed hit turned out to be Parrot who went down swinging. In the top of the fifth the Com- bines got another run and then in the first of the sixth they scored two runs. The Lymbermen got one of those back in the" last of the sixth and then in the last of the seventh they came close to winning the battle with two runs in and the tieing run on second. Locke doubled, and was singled gme by Powers, Phillips came rough with a needed hit and banged Powers in to the plate. Lawrence then went down swinging with two men out, also on K.O.s to end the game and what looked like omising rally. UNNYSIDE COMBINES--Claus, c; Milne, ss; Maeson, 1b; J. Jog- Koski, 3b; H.

Kelly and Dubois or Canadian Sculls Championship Port Dalhousie, Juty 25--(CP) ~--A double-barrelled program faced contestants today in the 66th Can:dian Henley regatta and the point-hunting elubs were headed for a field day with 10 final events and 14 heats on | schedule, The entry list was sp crowded that six heats were set for morn- ing decision, In addition, the fa- meus championship singles came up for a late-afternoon opening argument in two heats. Regatta enthusiasts already have nomina- ted Theo Dubois of Winnipeg and Jack Kelly, Jr., of Philadelphia, |I to fight it out in the finals Sat- urday. elly, defending his Canadian title and winner of this year's Diamond Sculls at the English Henley, felt ready to avenge the defeat Dubois handed him at De- trait. in the American national championships last week. There Kelly paught a crab and upset, and the 36-year-old Dubois, win- ner in 1941, went on to win, Out in front among the point. scorers, with two days of the re- gatta still to gg, were the formi- dalie Buffalo Westsides but a single .event could knock their b 9 -point lead sky-high over the d efand Canal course. One Canadian Teed Off U.S. Blind Golf Tourney Puluth, Minn., July 25--(ap) --Five golfers including one Ca. nadian, who use gumption and |s heart to help overcome their han- |o! dicap, tee off at the Northland Country Club course teday fer three days of competition to dec- ide the United States blind golf- erg championship.

Both pitchers compiled great totals of K.O.'s as McTavish racked up ten for his team while MacDon- ald had 14 whiffers. MaeDonald had a slight edge in the pitching as 'may be seen but Bill had his team behind him and they only allowed Whitby two hits while they got four from MacDonald. Oshawa left men stranded on base three times when it looked like they had a chance to win the game. 'Whitby on the other hand managed to get both of her runs on errors, while her hits were taken care of when McTavish tightened up. Whitby took the lead in the top of the second when Anderson got to first on a bobbled ball by the shortstop. He stole second, and then went t0 third op another nice steal. Neal went down on strikes, but Haire grounded out and in so doing he pushed in the first Whitby run. Oshawa was quick to take back that run when in the last of the third they got a singleton on two singles. Grant Hoy smashed a liner into left field that was good for one base, Lean then got to first on an error to the firstbaseman that allowed Hoy to get to third. Don Hoy then h't his brother home when he hlooped one past the infield. 'Whitby were to have none of this though and they came back to take the lead again with Mowat getting to first on another error to the shortstop, that put him on second. He then came home when the sec- ond baseman errored on Anderson's drive. In the last of the fifth the Rex- alls moved back in there for a tie when with one gut Grant Hay got a walk and then sneaked to second. He stole third ST home on a8 ground-out. t made the scare 2-2 and that was the way it ended. Grant Hoy was best for Oshawa with Anderson the auistanding batsman for the Whitby team.

By 4IM KEARNEY Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, July 24--(CP) Andy (Toronto Star) Lytle, who has had more fun than most peo- Jie kidding the trousers of the lympic Games laddies ever since the Barbara Ann Scott incident, ig back with another fistful of jites--this time in connection with the London Olympic Com- mittee's plans in regard to la- Crosse, Lytle reports that the Canpad- ion Iacrosse Association has been advised that a Canadian team will play England next year in an Olympic Games side attraction and that ¢ C.L.A. fathers have heen further informed they should have the team in England, ready for mayhem, on Aug. 12, 1942, How Could It Be Done "But like everything with an Olympie Games tinge just now, the picture is cpck- eyed," cracks Andy. "The English play only field lacrosse. They ex- pect us to do likewise, Where's the field equipment to come from? No field lacrosse has been played in this country since the early thirties! "Moreover, says the Olympic Committee from London, such a game or contest will only be an exhibition, Well, it's a nice trip across the Atlantic in the good old summertime and our own jdea would be to collect 2a number of real old-timers, who may still have war clubs gathering dust in the attic, and send them merely for the helluvit." Of the countries where lacrosse is played, Canada is the only one exhibiting organized box lacrosse. An exhibition series between two boxla teams might spread the gospel, 'as it were, for since the boxed game was introduced more than 15 years ago, lacrosse has become more popular in Canada if nowhere else. Public Golf Enemy As South Africa's Bobby Locke continues tp sink his puts where it most hurts the American pros --right in their pocket books-- Jim (Toronto Globe and Mail) Coleman comments: "The members of the Profes- sional Golfers' Association in the United States can be forgiven if they request the State Depart- ment to start deportation pro- ceedings 'against Locke, He has yon almost everything except the Torch on the Statue of Liberty and the Washington Monument. "He must believe those old stories about the streets of Am- erican cities being saved with gold. If he stays around here much longer they'l: have to ship his prize money home in the form of ingots," else Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. New York, July 25--(AP)--Tami Mauriello has been training longer and harder for next week's fight with Gus Lesnevich than he did even for his heavyweight title .shot at Joe Louis . .. and promoter Andy Neiderreiter 'attributes this burst of energy to a neighberhood rivalry, . "Mayrello (that's the way Andy pronounces it) and Rocky Graziano are neighbors in Brooklyn now and ever since Rocky won the champion- ship Tami has been talking about it," Andy explains. "It isn't exactly jealousy but , .." ,.. well, you know Tami is a guy who likes the spotlight almost as much as he likes spaghetti. He likes to be the centre of a crowd ., . It's hard tq figure out what a 'Bronx boy is doing on Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn, but it's just as hard to imagine Tami isolat- ing himself at Greenwood Lake for six weeks and training down to 108 pounds . , . Mayhe Neiderreiter has the right angle on it--or maybe Tami knows he has to look good this time if he wants to keep his name in the ring rankings just a few lines below where it says "logical conten- ders--none."
