THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1947 ' PAGE TWELVE PORT NAPSHOTS Oshawa lacrosse team dropped a 15-3 decision down in Peterboro . last night, final league game of their schedule. They didn't have Luther f Vipond nor Hughie Ormiston with them and they feel confident they .can take Peterboro when they meet again, here at the Oshawa Arena on Wednesday night, in the first game of the group semi-finals. Frankly, we think the Petes wili be mighty tough to take in the playoffs and _ we'd like to point out to the local gutted-stick boys, before they become over-confident, that they were beaten 15-3 and besides that, the Peter- "boro team was also minus several of their best players. In addition, . the Petes will have the second and third games of this playoff series . in their own Miller. Box and after getting a record 3,000 crowd last night, perhaps they are even hoping the series will go the full three games. With gees like Gord. Cook, Sanders, Sutherland, O'Brien, etc., © missing from the score-sheet, we think perhaps the Oshawa team was «+ having a bad night last night and can do better in a scoring way but ~ these Peterboro bucks are good and they'll take some beating--even here in Oshawa, on Wednesday night. LJ + + Legionnaires whipped White Eagles last night in the opening game of the Inter. "A" In the fourth inning they staged an eight-run rally that "spoiled the game" for everybody but the Legion rooters. Today, they are playing two games, at four o'clock and again at 6:30 o'clock and should Legionnaires win both of these --the series is over and the championship will be theirs, If White Eagles can manage to win one of these games today, then the two teams will go right back at it again on Monday night at Alexandra Park. The games todiy will draw big crowds, especially with a big crowd already expected to be at Alexandra Park this afternoon, for the big track and field meet. 4 * +> Oshawa"s classy "O.B.A. midget entry, the Sunnyside Combines, . walloped Peterboro yesterday to sweep the first round series in two- straight games. Now if the local Mayfair juveniles can only lick Peterboro juveniles this evening here, and so tie up the series, everything , will be hunky-dory, Don't know how they arrived at this arrangement but in the Junior "A" playoffs, Peterboro is coming to Oshawa on Mon- day night to re-play the second game of their series. This game was partially played up in Peterboro on Thursday and now, we understand, the teams are going to' re-play it in Oshawa--but B'Nai B'Rith had their "home game" here last Saturday. Don't know how they worked Iv out nt well vaniurs the Te club Is aot pleased with the idea. +> + * Oshawa City and District Inter. "AA" championship was decided last night as Legion whipped Robson Leather 7-2 in the third game of their 3-out-of-5 series, to sweep through to the championship in straight games and so retain the title they held last year. Legion "AA" team is considered by most softball fans to be a stronger club than the one that went to the 0.A.S.A. finals against Hamilton last year. They will commence their 0.A.S.A. playdowns for this year immediately, with Peterboro C.G.E., Liftlock City Inter. "AA" champs, coming here Monday night for the first game of the first round. * * * Oshawa GM-Colts dropped two games to Tip Top Tailors at Kew ¢ Gardens last night, both seven-inning affairs, Tip Tops won the first § one 8-4 with a big five-run rally in the second inning as Ecclestone 2 banged an extra-base hit with the bases loaded, did most of the damage. ; fIn the second tilt, Russ. Johnson was headed for a no-hit game until = "Dib" Little got his second home-run of the night and it ended 2-1, with 1 "Preem" Whiteley hurling a great game also in his duel with Johnson. + Two runs in the second inning, one on a doubtful play called "safe" at the plate and the other a gift run with the runner scoring from third on a wild pitch to the screen,was all that Toppers could get but *that flukey run proved the winning counter. Colts play Peoples up there on Monday night and then Bowles Lunch visit Oshawa off Wed- nesday evening for a twilight fixture. Incidentally, Lorne St. John had better start worrying. The men in charge of the annual "Old- Timers" baseball day, to be held at Alexandra Park on Saturday, August 30, were looking for suitable opposition to meet the Oshawa Hunt Club Juniors in one of the two or three five-inning exhibition games ar- ranged and Oshawa GM-Colts have offered to help the baseball men raise money to help the minors by taking on the "Hunters" next Saturday. El ate be EE aa ent * * * SPORTS SHORTS--Cleveland's farm boy pitcher from Iowa, 17- 4 year-old Bob Feller, started his first major league ball game, 11 years sago today. He struck out 15, missing the American League record by gone and Dizzy Dean's major league mark by two. Feller went on to screate a record, striking out 18 in nine innings in 1938 against Detroit +» +» . Up in Northern Ontario, there are quite a few Oshawa boys playing in the N.O.B.A. Vince Barton, who isn't exactly a boy now, sand who played for Toronto McCormacks Juniors against St. Andrews here in Oshawa, is now coaching the Hollinger entry in the N.O.B.A. . . . Barton was a former Chicago Cubs outfielder and a pretty good one at that . . . Red Demerse who played with the GM-Colts a year or so ago is now sub catcher for the Kirkland Lake team in the same Northern Ontario league . . . Bobby Porter, an Oshawa General puck- chasing forward, is also playing ball in that northern league. He is scampering around in the daisies for the MacIntyre squad . . . Speaking of junior hockey reminds us that the Guelph juniors aren't wasting any time in their pre-season preparations. They start training September 15 and evidently don't want to make a poor showing like most of the first time entries last year. + Ld > SCISSORED SPORT-- (By The Canadian Press)--Nineteen yachts fwhich sailed from England to La Rochelle in France's Bay of Biscay sand were feared lost at sea have all arrived safely at their destination. yachts, competing in the annual Plymouth to La Rochelle race, ere delayed by unusual calm at the beginning of the trip, but later fran into heavy weather.

NO ADVANCE IN ADMISSION a) LEGION RETAINS INTER. "AA" LAURELS Defeat Robson Leather 7-2 To Sweep Finals Three-Straight Wilf Lewis Hurls Second Playoff Win In As Many Nights -- Scat- ters 7 Hits For Only Two Runs -- Tannery Leaves Many Men On Bases -- Timely Hit- ting Wins For Legion, Plus Costly Tannery Errors Canadian Legion, Oshawa Branch 43 team, captured the 1947 Oshawa City and District Softball Associa- tion championship inthe Inter. "AA" section, to retain the title they won last season, when they defeated Robson Leather Tannery 7-2 last night at Alexandra Park, to sweep the final series in three straight games. Wilf Lewis Again It was the second pitching chore in successive nights for Wilf Lewis, the Legion ace, and he again came through with flying colors, limiting the Tannery team to seven scattered safeties and a total of only two tallies. \ Actually, he was in better pitch- ing form than on. Thursday night, fanning nine batters and giving up only one walk, but Robson Leather giice again failed badly at the plate, with the result that they left a lot of potential runs stranded on the bases. Zakarow singled with one out in the first .frame and vas forced by Patterson, Flintoff singled and then Andrews walked to fill the bases, with Patterson coming home on a wild pitch, for Tannery's first run. A single by Patterson and an er- ror by Waddell gave them a chance in the third but there were two out and Lewis fanned Andrews. In the fourth inning Sholdra singled with one out, advanced on a passed ball and a wild pitch and scored on a passed ball to make it 2-2. That was as close as Tannery could come. A double play nipped a Tannery threat in .the 7th and in the 9th Sholdra singled with one out but was nipped trying to make it a two- bagger. Legion Hit in Pinches Legion made good use of their scoring chances. Zakarow pitched good ball for Tannery but his sup- port faltered in spots and Legion took full advantage. Legion scored first in the third inning when Brown singled and Hobbs was safe on an error by Flintoff. Cook singled and so did Waddell, to score Brown. Higgins flied to left and Hobbs scored after the catch, then Cook was nipped going to 3rd and Dionne flied out. In the fourth, Legion broke the 2-2 tie when McIntyre opened with a double. Lewis walked. Lott fan- ned and Brown grounded out, but Stasinski dropped Hobbs' life into left field, allowing two runs to score. In the 5th, Higgins walked, but was forced by Dionne, to make two out. - Then McIntyre walked and while Lewis was getting a life on an error at 1st base by Brooks, Dionne came home to make it 5-2. Legion's last two runs came in the 8th when Lott opened with a single. Brown and Hobbs singled. . Cook fouled out 'to the first baseman and then Waddell singled, scoring his two mates. Waddell and Hobbs; with two hits apiece, were the big hitters for Legion and the others got their hits in good places. Only Sholdra of Tannery was able to get two hits off Lewis. R. H E.

MOM PLAYS HUNCH BEETLE PAYS $325 Ottawa, Aug. 22 -- (CP) -- Many unusual stories have been told about gamblers who play hunches when they bet on horses, but none 50 weird and wonderful as one that came out of Ottawa's Connaught Park race track during the summer meet. One woman took a tip ffom her six-year-old daughter and made it pay off to the tune of $325, but there was a fly. in the ointment. She couldn't figure out how to ex- plain the money to her husband, who doesn't tolerate gambling. While the horses were parading to the post, the little girl spotted a 'horse she liked and said, "I wish that were mine, mummy." So, when mother saw a horse named "Mine" entered in the next race, what could she do but bet? She did, buying five tickets on the nose, and "Mine" romped in to pay $62.50. Then, with a roll of bills even "Mine" couldn't swallow, mother was left to cook up a story to tell her husband. Classy Liftlock City Team Outscores Osha- wa in Every Period and Dominates First and Final Frames -- Bob Breakspeare, Vi- tarelli Boys and Magee Star for Winners -- Chambers Scores One for His Mates -- Playing their last schedule game of the season, Oshawa's Senior "B" lacrosse team dropped a 15-3 de- cision before a season's record crowd of 3,000 in the Miller Bowl, at Peterboro, last night. Minus the services of two regu- lars, defenseman Luther Vipond out of action with a broken nose and husky forward Hugh Ormiston, who remained at home in case the stork arrived, the Oshawa "team was not only below strength but they lacked pep in their play, especially in the first half of the game. These two "spark plugs" were badly missed. Perhaps they were saving them- selves for the semi-final playoffs, which open here at the Oshawa Arena on Wednesday night, with Peterboro as the visitors and the second game back in Peterboro, next Friday night. Homesters Started Fast Bob Breakspeare, the scoring star of the night with three goals, got his first one right from the face- off, before Oshawa seemed to real- ize the game had started. They ran it to 3-0 before Chuck Barron made good on a penalty shot. The period ended 5-1 with Dugan and Mickey Magee adding 'to the Peterboro total. Play was very tame and almost unexciting in the second and third stanzas, with not a penalty in. either fram2 and only a few goals. Robson got one for Oshawa late in the second period and late in the third frame, with the score 10-2, Cliff Chambers, who had been starring in goal for the Visiting Motor City squad, made a sortie up the field to create an "odd man" and made good with his shot on goal, to conclude Oshawa's coring, Peterboro A'l the Way The Liftlock City boys took over again in the final stanza, scored five nice goals withoyt a reply. Good goaling by Rogers, when the Oshawa Lacrossers Lose Last League Fixture In Peterboro Lg Oshawa snipers fired right at his citadel, was a big factor in keeping Oshawa's score down and in addi- tion, several of .the Motor City lat were having a decided "off r"_ht", Big excitement of the final period was the flare.up between the Creighton brothers of Peterboro, Jerry and Emmett, and the Mit- chell boys of Oshawa, n and Bruce. All received mg or penal. es. Bob Breakspeare, with three goals, Mickey Magee with three also, and the Vitarelli brothers, were the pick of the Peterboro team on the at- tack, with Jerry Creighton and Curtin standouts on defense. Willie Vipond, Pete Grice and goalie Chambers were the best for Oshawa. : OSHAWA. goal, Chambers; de- fense, Grice and Bastien; rover, Sanders; centre, Jansen; homes, G.

DUNN'S TAILORS WHIP BROOKLIN FIRST OF FINALS In the first game of the Junior City & District Softball Agsovialio finals, Dunn's Tallors wallo Brooklin Dodgers by the of 9-1 down at Bathe Park last night. The Needlemen were in top form again last night and although Herky Tutak allowed six hits to the Dodgers, he scattered them so effectively that "Da Bums" could course the smart backing that his mates gave him helped not a little to bring about this fact. Hooker served them up for the Brpoklinites, and gave up nine hits for nine runs and allowed two hom- ers, by the same guy, Willie Maeson, to roll out of the park. Brookljun scored theirone and only in the top of the first when Jack Nesbitt homered cleanly right over second base. That gave Brook- lin a one-run lead till the last of the third when Taillon tied the game when he doubled to drive in Scott, who reached first on a walk. With one run already in, in the last of the fifth, which was the winning run, Willie Maeson pound- ed out his first homer with a mate aboard to make it three runs that inning. Then, not the least bit awed by this performance, Hooker slapped the same pitch down the alley in the next inning ang Willie plough- ed ib oul of the pail wilh ihe bases loaded, for a very nice night's work. One more run scored in that in- ning to bring the score to 9-1. Neither team tried very hard after that so no more scoring took place. Willie Maeson with two homers was the .man of the evening for Dunn's, and Jack Nesbitt, with the only run and it a homer for Brook- lin, was their best effort at the late. P R.H.E.

Notre Dame Helps All Stars to 16-0 Win rific forward passing by Notre Dame's George Ratterman, plus thrilling long runs, enabled the surprising Collc se All-Stars to pin- a 16-0 defeat last night on Chi. cago Bears, champions of the Na. tional Professional League, in an exhibition football game before a 105,340 crowd in floodlighted Soldier Field. The game marked the first ap- pearance this season of Glenn (Junior) Davis and Felix (Doc) Blanchard, who terminated a reign of terror with the outstand- ing Army team last year, Blanchard and Davis, ranked among the greatest players in the game, are still in the Army and their football for some years will be confined to exhibition games. They played for the All-Stars, DEEP SEA DIVER UNDERWATER FAN Grand Harbor, N.B, Aug. 22-- (CP)--Samuel Guptill, of this fish- ing village on Grand Manan Island, is. a baseball fan. He's also a deep sea diver. Nevertheless, when the Seal Cove Atoms of Grand Manan played an exhibition game with Saint John Dodgers at Saint John, he was able to combine vocation and avocation. Down at the bottom of the sea, while working at a sardine weir site, he enjoyed a broadcast of the contest. Assistants on the surface kept him tuned in through wires from a radio- on a boat to ear- phones attached to his diver's hel- met. Guptill had further cause for enjoyment. Atoms won 4-1, BRUCE'S JAW BENT BUT YET UNBOWED London, Aug. 22--(CP)--Bruce Woodcock, Britain's heavyweight boxing champion, isn't worried about the fractured jaw he re- ceived from lumbering Joe Baksi in their fight at Harringay Arena a few months ago. The jaw was test- ed by sparring partner Tom Red- dington and Doncaster railroader commented: "I think there's something in what doctors say about a mended bone being stronger than before it was broken, only score one run from them. Of | Tip Tops Take Both Ends Of ~ Doubleheader From GM-Colts 4 5-Run Splurge in 2nd Inning Wins First| Game for Tailors -- Johnson Fans 11 in 7 Innings -- "Dib" Little Gets a Homer in Each Game -- Russ Johnson and "Preem" Whiteley Stage Great Duel in Thrilling 2-1 "Night cap" Tip Top Tailors moved into a tie for second place in the Beaches Major Fastball League race, when they took both ends of a 7-inning doubleheader, from the Oshawa GM-Colts, last night at Kew Gar- dens, 8-4 and 2-1. A five-run splurge in the second stanza, as Meulemeester got off to a shaky start, practically clinched the first game for the Toppers de- spite the fact that the Colts came back to hit Cam Ecclestone hard and outscore Tip Tops four to two for the last five innings. 'In the "nightcap", Russ Jclnston and "Preem" Whiteley hooked up in a rare pitcher's battle allowing only 7 hits between them as Tip Tops nosed out the Colls, 2-1, on a gift run, scored on a wild pitch. Plenty of Hitting Both teams displayed hitting power in the opening tussle. Smith walked to open the game, was sac- rificed by Gresko and advanced on an error by Kitchen. Geraldi grounded to Hall, who threw wide to the plate and Smita scored, af- ter which Pulfer grounded to Hall, who got a double-play by touching his own base to force Upper and threw to 1st to get Pulfer. The blow-up came in the second inning when Tip Tops scored five runs to make it 6-0. France opened with a double and Hayes 'valked. Burkett bunted safely to load the bases and Ecclestone's drive to right went for a double as Barnes misjudged it. Smith grounded out and Stark's return throw to 3rd was wild, allowing Burkett to score. Gresko was safe on a choice play and Uppper doubled to complete the 5-run parade. Tip Tops got their other two runs in the 4th when Ecclestone walked and was forced by Smith. Gresko doubled, Upper fanned and then Geraldi doubled, scoring Smith and a wild pitch allowed Gresko to go home. Colts Fight Back Oshawa came back to make a game of it. Stark bunted safely to open the third but was forced by Barker, Meulemeester fanned but Young doubled to score Barker. In the fourth, Little homered, down the right foul line. In the 5th, Hall singled and Kitchen doubled and en with two out, "Dib" Little hit GM-COLTS HAVE TWO PLAYERS IN LOOP'S TOP NINE In the latest batting averages of the Beaches Major Fatball League, issued today, it is revealed that Herb Stricker is still leading the field with a nifty batting average of .371 while Joe Spring of Bowles is in second spot with .348.

PITCHER'S BATTLE IN NIGHTCAP The second game of the twin-bill was. a real battle, with Russ John- son fanning 11 batters and allow- ing three 'hits while "Preem" Whiteley had only three strikeouts but gave up only four hits, as Tip Tops scored two runs in the second inning and hung on to nose out Oshawa 2-1. Geraldi singled to open the sec- ond inning for the Toprers and Kennedy drew a walk. A wild pitch advanced the two runners and then Pulfer grounded to Keel- er, who threw to the plate, Catch- er Nelson tagged Geraldi as he slid in but the umpire ruled that Ger- aldi had touched the plate a frac- tion ahead. On the next pitch, Whiteley had a wild one into the screen, autcenatically scoring Ken- nedy from 2nd, and it proved the winning run.
