THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, JULY 9, 1948 EE --_--. CE ---------- PORT ~... NAPSHOTS ~*~ ---- The Benefit Softball game: last night at Alexandra Park, netted $64.20 for Tony Loople and with. still another project afoot, the United Taxi team and'the Intermediate "A" League officers hope to line up sufficient money to take care of Tony's bills. Pedlars won the game 4-0 but the aA All-Stars gave them -surprisingly stern opposition. As a matter of "Hact, if the Intermediate "AA" players, especially the outfielders, had stayed away from the costly-errors and fumbles they committed, they would have made it, much tougher for Pedlars to get even one run, let alone the four they did register. However, defensively, the Intermediate "A" Jeague-leaders were much too good for the All-Stars. Jack McConkey and "Hootch" Meulemeester shared the shutout honors, both pitching fine bail while on the mound and their mates gave them excellent support. a ' * * * Big softball attraction tonight is the Intermediate "A" tussle at Alexandra Park, when Pedlars, undefeated still in the local league --.race, meet GM-Colts, for the third time in the schedule. Colts lost 'their last game to UAWA and have bowed to Pedlars twice. How- -ever, there is still hope of coming up with a better brand of ball than they have been playing, in which case the Colts might make it - more than interesting for Pedlars tonight. 27 > LJ * "Other ball games last night resulted much as expected: with Rexalls "taking another sound tréuncing last night in the Minor Baseball League and Mills Motors" winning handily over Collacutt Coach in the Juvenile softball race. Mills had "Bunny" Maeson on the mound for them last :might. This tall and lanky boy, is apparently still of juvenile age and he 'pitched the Dunn's juniors into the Ontario semi-finals last year. In a thrilling junior softball tilt at Brooklin- last night, the Lyndbrook team nosed out Fittings Ltd. of Oshawa, 6-5, scoring he winning run in the ninth inning, with two out. * +* *» The Oshawa Minor Softball Association teams will be looking right up tonight. The bant and mid received their snappy new sweaters last night. The youngsters have been clamoring for their sweaters, of course, almost before they were ordered. With each team having a different set of colors and all bantam teams car- rying thé Kiwanis "K" crest on the back and all midget players carrying the B'Nai B'Rith "candelabra" crest on the back, the Oshawa Minor Softball teams are perhaps the best-dressed minor league in the province. * * Ld . We'd almost forgot--due to the fact that the schedule shows the game in Scarboto--but that Senior "B" lacrosse game booked for tonight between Oshawa and Scarboro, is being played here at the Oshawa Arena: --Due to lack of adequate facilities and not-so-good patronage, Scarboro is moving their "home games" with Oshawa, to the local Arena and tonight's lacrosse game is the first of these. Scarboro has only played at Oshawa once this season and while the Motor City forces won that one nicely, the Scarboro team indicated that they would be tougher to beht, later in the season. The other night, Monday, they gave Peter- boro a real tussle up in Scarboro. No doubt the ldcal lacrosse fans, biggest following of the local summer sports whirl, will be on hand tonight at the Oshawa Arena to see this game. The usual prices prevail, LJ LJ LJ : According to "Bobby" Rosenfeld's hockey grapevine, George Arm- ® strong, top scorer of the OHA junior "A" race last season and winner of the "Red" Tilson Memorial Trophy as "most valuable player," will be playing for Oshawa Generals this coming winter while Glen Son- more, classy Guelph Biltmore forward, in whom Oshawa was also jnterested a few months back, will be playing for Toronto Marlboros. Both are on the Leafs' list. Yr * +» +» "Ernie" Parkes, 53, well-known senior hockey star for Kitchener who played pro in Vancouver in 1921-23 and who in later years, was a top- notch curler for Kitchener rinks and visited the Oshawa Curling Club on numerous occasions, passed away yesterday at Woodstock, where he moved in 1941. Ernie Parkes was a member of the Kitchener rink that won the Canadian curling title, Macdonald Brier, in 1939. He was better known to Oshawa sport fans of a couple of decades.ago, as one of the top puck stars of the province. : * * * We. take this opportunity, on behalf of the Oshawa sports fra- fernity, to pass along sincere sympathy to Harry "Butch" Dyas, demon sports-hustler for The Independent and ber of the "Red Raiders" Football Club, who this week lost his best friend, in the . death of his mother. The sincere condolences of local sport clubs and athletes are extended to Harry and the family. + 4 * SPORTS SHORTS--Toronto Leafs won again, and that should bring them up within 12 games of first place, and two games of second place. Shocking, isn't it, Luke Hamlin did the chucking for the men of Peter Campbell and earned a seven-hitter over the Red Wings and also an 8-3 win . . . Bill Ezinicki posted a 75 in the Ontario Open, and looked very good in doing so, since he tied with such a player as Dick Borth- wick.

'In the opening singles match of the North American zone tie Thurs- day, Rochon gave Canada an early lead' by running away from Fran- cisco Guerrero in thre: straight sets, 6-2, 7-5, 6-4. Then Vega of Mexico gave Canada's Brendan Macken the same treatment to even matters, winning 6-4, 6-1, 6-3. Matches Tied Witti the matches tied 1-1, and a doubles and two singles left, the Mexican team captain, Ignacio De La Bordolla, apparently wants to make sure of a doubles triumph to- day, leaving Mexico needing only a victory in one of Saturday's last two | the Canadian team a much-needed | singles clashes. The Mexican national doubles champs, Guerrero and Palafox, were } Bordella's original selectinons for the doubles contest. Meanwhile, Ross Wilson of St. Catharines, captain of the Canadian team, said he will stick by his first choices for the doubles, and send the Macken brothers, Brendan and Jimmy, against Vega and Palafox. _"Rochon's Win i Rochon's brilliant victory gave uplift, and sent their confidence soaring. Canada's hadn't won a Da- vis Cup singles match since 1939, when the Canadian team won one match while losing 4-1 to Cuba. One has to go all the way back to 1923 to find the last Canadian vic- tory in a Davis Cup tie. Canada beat Cuba 4-1 that year. Rochon, 24-year-old Montrealer, used tantalling drop shots and low aor pue sjous doip Supzjrejus) pasn vantage against his slower-moving Mexican opponent, With Rochon leading 4-2 in the third, Guerrero stiffened to draw even at 4-4. But that was the Mex- ican last bid for Rochon broke through his opponent's service to make it 5-4 and then won the next game with the loss of only one point to win the set 6-4, and salt away the match. Brendan Macken got nowhere in his clash with Vega. The classy Mexican showed too much all-round court ability for the blond Mon- treal netman. PEDLARS BLANK "AA" All-Stars Provide Close Competition with Errors Being Deciding Factor in Close Play McConkey and Meule- meester Share Shutout Honors -- Errors Give Pedlars Unearned Runs "AA" All- Stars Weak At Plate Against Good Pitching Benefit Collection Nets $65.00 For Tony Loople The "Tony Loople Benefit Fund" took a $64.20 jump last night due to the gate receipts from the ex: hibition game between the Inter "AA" All-Stars and the Inter "A" squad, at Alexandra Park. The double A team lost by the count of 4-0 and lost on the more solid hitting of the Pedlars club. The All-Stars played very well and showed Pedlars some smart moves. -IcConkey and Meulemeester shared the mound for the Pedlars club, while Morey, Opychany and Zakarow did the chucking for the Stars. Meulemeester was the star of the game having eight strike- outs and no walks. His blazing fast ball and terrific change of pace had the Stars looking in all directions at all times. Both teams played through a scoreless first inning, and then Pedlars came to bat in the last of the second, with the score still in the goose-egg stage. Wes Keel- er tripled, and McConkey followed with a single to centre field, to score the first run. He himself was hit home on the next play, after getting to third on an outfield miscue. The All-Stars scorecard still re- mained with no runs and. stayed that way for the rest of the game despite a rising in the top of the seventh on the part of the' "sec- ond team". Big Bob Dionne singl- ed and stole second base with one out, and it looked as if they would finally tally a counter, Meulemeester came through in the pinch though, and struck out the next man to the plate and forc- ed the third out on a pop to the catcher. "Mel" then proved him- self master of the situation by set- ting down the Stars one, two, three on strikes in the top of the eighth. In the last of the eighth, Pedlars got their other two runs to complete the scoring. Sam Stark led off with a long fly to right field. It was misjudged and the ball went for a four-base error. Stark being a speed merchant, had no trouble in rounding the sacks before the ball could be returned. Another out, and then Bill Your- kevitch came to bat in that eighth frame. His blast at second base was errored, and he was safe at first for Keeler to single him to third. Meulemeester put the game on ice when he singled in the fourth run with his single past second base. The inning ended with next player popping out to first base. The first of the ninth saw Meule- meester whiff two more of the en- emy, and then force the last out of the game on an infield grounder. The battle ended, and everyone was happy, even Tony Loople.

Alvar VICTORS SCORE 7-0 SHUTOUT OVER REXALLS Victors stayed on top of the Minor Baseball league last night when they defeated Rexalls by the count of 7-0, up at Alexandra Park. John Lawrence, the Victor mound ace, was again sent to the hill, and he came through with one of the most convincing wins of his car- eer, a threee-hit shutout, with 16 strikeouts attached. He was pitch- ing a perfect game until the third inning he allowed the first man to get to first base. In the first and second innings, she struck three men out in order to end the frames. Rahme who did the chucking for the Druggists found the going a little rough, with his mates not ex- actly standing behind him. He was nicked for four safeties, one of 'these a homer by Jack Kellar to account for the total of seven runs against him, . His team committed' five errors and these all came at crucial times and allowed the runs to scamper a- cross the platter. Victors took until the top of the second to get their bats in shape for scoring, and then they struck for four tallies. It was a case of the whole Rexall team failing at the same time. Kellar was hit by the pitcher, Greentree got a walk, and Lewis hit an easy single into centde field to score one run. Another walk loaded the bases again, and Stroz came through with a past short for a safetly. This scored another run. A ground-out sent in the third man, and then an error to -the right fielder scored the fourth. , The next frame was a repetition with Kellar being hit by the pitch- er, and three errors in - row allow- ed him to score. A squeeze play was then attempted to .get another runner into the plate, but first- baseman Bob Lean played heads- up ball and clipped him off at the plate. That made the count 5-0, and till the Rexalls squad were strange- ly quiet at the base. Jack Kellar came to bat in the top of the fifth for Victors, and boomed a home run into left field to make the count 6-0 and showed the Victors weren't being silent. . Two walks and fielder's choice moved the seventh and final run over the plate for Victors in the top 'of the seventh, as Bill Kellar took up his brother's bat and scored. Rexalls started an uprising in the last of the seventh, with the bases loaded. This condition had to last teo, for the next man up hit an infield fly for the out, and the next two men went down swinging. VICTORS--Stroz, 3b; B. Kellar, ss; J. Lawrence, p; J.

NIP FITTINGS, NINTH INNING Brooklin Juniors tightened their grip on first place in the City and District Junior Softball League race, when they nosed out their arch-rivals, Fittings Ltd. 6-5 last night at Brooklin Community Park, by scoring the winning run in the last half of the 8th, with two men out. It was a keen pitcher's battle be- tween Hooker of Brooklin and Dervent for Fittings, with the form- er fanning eight and walking four while Dervent issued only one walk--and it proved to be the win- ning run. He fanned five. Fittings opened with one in the second on an error at shortstop, a passed ball, infield out and an- other error by the catcher. In the 4th, Locke rapped a long hit and scored on an outfield bobble. In the 6th, Hurst hit and Ford singl- ed with two out and so did Brooks, to score his two mates. It stayed at 5-4 until the ninth, when Fit- tings scored one to tie it up. Pinch- hitter Masiewich singled, with two out, moved on a passed ball and scored when Corrigan singled, to tie the game. Brooklin took the lead in the second when an infield error, double by Croxall and Fletcher's singled, followed by hits by Davidson and Gibson with two out, gave them a total of three runs. They added two in the 4th on hits by Fletcher, Davidson and a costly error by Loche. They didn't threaten Dervent and Fittings again until the 9th, when Nesbitt opened with a walk. He moved to 3rd on a hit by Hooker. Croxall struck out but Fletcher flied to centre and Nesbitt sprint- ed home after the catch, with the winning run. Gibson, Croxall, Fletcher and Davidson each had two hits for Brooklin while Ford was the only one of the losers to get two hits-- his team only had six altogether.

"Bunny" Maeson, hurling his first game of the season for Mills Mo- tors, came up with a fair score. He was nicked for nine hits but only three runs, two of them in the sec- --|ond when Hawkshaw walked, Bak singled, Locke was safe on an er- ron and Shaw doubled. The other run came in the 5th when Jeffs doubled and Commer- ford singled. Maeson loaded the bases later with two walks but fanned Bak to end the threat and kept out of serious trouble the rest of the way. Collacutt's hurler Hawkshaw was shelled from the mound in the 4th inning when Day, Gedge and Cog- -- | ging all doubled, not to mention a -- | single by Selby and a couple of walks. Seles took over the hurling in the 4th and in the 6th, Sciuk clipped Seles for a triple then McDermaid homered. More hits followed for another run, to make it 14-3. The winners added three more runs in the 8th, when Hoy doubled and Goggins tripled after Selby walk- ed and McGillis singled. Coggins had a homer in the 3rd, to give Mills three runs in that in- ning and he doubled in the first, after Selby and McGillis walked, to account for the first run of the game, Coggins, with his homer, triple and two doubles and a walk, was the big hitter. He did strike out once. McDermaid, Roy and Gedge were other big hitters for the win- ners. Jeffs, with a double and two singles, was best for the losers. Gedge robbed Tippet with a one- handed stab of a liner, for the best play of the night.

JACK'S LUNCH BAR WHIP STORIE PARK Jack's Lunch Bar beat out Storie Park Juveniles 16-13 last night at Connaught Park in a scheduled tilt, for their second win of the season. Walks and infield errors proved costly for the , Storie Park team with Mackness, DePratto and J, Wilson doing some steady hitting in the right spots to aid the Jack's Lunch cause. The winners scored in every in- ning except the third and fifth frames, usually scoring two but in the 4th inning, they staged a 5- run rally. Storie Park didn't do much with D. Wilson's pitching until the last stages of the game. They got a couple in the second on hits by Shearer and Smith and again in the 5th when Durno hit a homer. Durno took over the pitching for Storie Park in the 4th inning after the big rally, but he couldn't stop the Lunch Bar boys either, In the 7th, Storie Park scored three runs with Corse, Durno, Olesuk and Shearer doing the hit- ting.
