We SR MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1948 bY FfHE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE ™N RED RAIDERS WIN AT OAKVILLE--CABBIES OUSTED BY ". Oshawa's Inter. Grid Team Gives Oakville's New Entry Rough Welcome Into League Ht Red Raiders Recover Oakville Fumble Early in Game and Gilbert Scores Touchdown Af- ter Sackell's 25-yd. Run -- Bob Richie Breaks Shoulder, Out for Sea- son--Superior Oshawa Line Main Factor In Raiders' Victory Oshawa "Red Raiders" chalked up a 23-8 victory in a Lakeshore League O.R.F.U. Intermediate fix ture, at Oakville on Saturday, when their superior line gave the back- fielders enough protection to run the ball for long gains against the lighter and inexperienced Oakville team, However the victory was a cost- ly one for the Oshawa team, with Bob Richie, one of the Regina new- comers to the local grid squad, suf- fered a broken shoulder. He will be out for the season. Oshawa Scores Early Oshawa recovered an Oakville fumble early in the game and Sac- kell skirted the end and romped for a 25-yard gain, after which Dave Gilbert plunged the remain- ing ten yards, over centre, for a touchdown, which Charlie Marsh converted, to make it 6-0. Richie and Sackell, another Re- gina import, were teaming up beau- tifully,on the Oshawa backfield and running the ball up to Oak- ville's 30-yard ling, where Sackell booted it across, for a single point. Walker recovered an Oakville fumble and Gilbert ran twenty yards, before flicking an accurate pass to Richie, who galloped an- other ten, before he was stopped on the 2-yard line. It was on this, play that Richie suffered his un- fortunate injury. Cliff Dobson, of Regina also, plunged over the centre for a touchdown to make it 12-0 and Marsh was wide with his convert attempt. A pretty "sleeper" play saw Dob- son pass to Gilbert and the speedy back sprinted 55 yards, then lateral- led the ball to Sackell, who carried the ball over for another touch- down, on which the convert boot was again wide. Fairhart intercepted a pass early in the second quarter and ran to Oakville's 25-yard line. Dobson then passed to Ossie Siblock, who relay- ed it to Fairhart and he went across for a touchdown. Marsh converted it, to make it 23-0. Homsters Score Major Oakville came back stronger after this, intercepted an Oshawa pass and mvoed nito Oshawa territory. Patterson tossed a forward to Mc- Arthur, a long pass that resulted in a touchdown and Patterson made his convert bid a successful one, to give Oakville their first 6 points. Oakville came up with a drive after that netted them one point, on a long. kick, with Sackell being rouged behind his line. An ex- change of short kicks saw Patter- son boot the ball to Sackell again and he was tackled before he could get out, to make it 23-8. That ended the scoring for the day, neither getting a point in the last half of the game. "Abe" Tay- Jor booted well for Oshawa, one a terrific 65-yard boot. Dobson, Greene and Siblock pulled off an end-run that went to Oakville's 15-yard line but the homesters held the Raiders off. In the 4th, Dobson got away 'a long pass to Taylor, out in the clear, =~ but he muffed the catch. Gilbert tossed one to Knihnisky that took the ball to Oakville's 26-yard line but the whistle sounded as Raid- ers were planning another touch- down thrust. Oakville A Light Team Bob McKay, of Hamilton Wild- cats, coach of the new Oakville en- , try, has a very young team and a light one, but they settled down ni after the first half and al- th Oshawa's heavier line was too much for the Oakville plungers, ' they held their own in the aerial play. Sackell, Richie, Gilbert and Dob- son were the Oshawa stars with Nick Andrinwich, Walker and O. Siblock shining in the line play.

Spicy Bits From Other Sports Cols. By VIC MORRIS Jr. Montreal, Sept. 27-- ~P)--Maur- ice Richard, the Rocket .of the hoc- key lanes, is against stretching the National Hockey League schedule to 70 games, but League President Clarence Campbell doesn't think the added games would present an unreasonable burden on the fans or players. . N.H.L. officials came away from a recent meeting in Montreal with assurances that the schedule would not be stretched this season. But Andy (Montreal Standard) O'Brien predicts that "as sure as shootin' the NHL, will jump its schedule for 1940.50 up to T0 games," 10 more than the present season, ! ; Would Be 'Murder' Recéritly, Montreal Canadiens' Richard stated he was opposed to the plan it would be "murder" for the pldyers. He said the present schedule was all the boys could handle and still play good hockey. He claimed that under modern rules, the game is too fast for a lengthy schedule. However, President Campbell says the plan is basically sound from a business aspect. He says: "In common with every other en- terprise today our expenses have been upped tremendously. Trans. portation and equipment is up 25 per cent, Players demand more be- cause of increased living costs. "The only answer is more games if the ticket price is to remain the same. Only a recession would make a T0-game schedule outlook un- feasible." Fans May Benefit Campbel] offers a suggestion to add the 10 games to the schedule whereby all fans wofild benefit. Each team would play five extra tome games which would be handled ¢ "open attractions," similar to ice shows and carnivals, Season ticket holders would likely refrain from queueing up and the fans who can't afford to buy a season ticket would get his chance to see a game. And O'Brien, who favors the ex- tension, says: "I fully realize that N.H.L. play- ers detest filthy lucre but more games would mean more pay. It wouldn't mean a longer season-- the games would be played in the 'dead' periods which leave gaps in the 60-game schedule. And NHL. coaches will tell you that long lay- offs are bad for clubs anyway."

Intermedi- ate "C" Ontario semi-final series and force a 3rd and deciding game, which will be played this afternoon (Monday) at Dentonia Park, in Toronto, at 4:30 o'clock. Morton pitched steady ball for the Ajax team and backed by ex- cellent support, along with his con- tribution. of seven strikeouts, he kept the visiting Cooksville team in check all the way.

Ajax added two more runs in the 8th, when Pat Sheehan homered with one out and then Harold singled and Stew- art doubled and an infield out let Harold score. Fraser, who took over the hurl- ing for Cooksville in the 7th inning, Proves no mystery to the Ajax bat- IS.

Portsmouth Tops English League, Blank Sheffield London, Sept, 27--(Reuters)--In the tight scramble for leadership of the English Football League's First Division on Saturday, Portsmouth stayed defiantly at the top, adding a 3.0 victory over Sheffield United to her unbroken succession_of tri- umphs. Portsmouth's ace forwards got away to a flying start, scoring in the first 10 minutes with skilful 0| teamwork. Sheffield's men worked herd to find an opening but were tk warted by Portsmouth's stolid de- fence, Close on their heels came Derby City, only two points behind the lezders, after beating low-placed Bolton 1-0. Both teams were well matched and neither had scored at half-time. Derby's winning goal, scored in the last hectic minutes of a fast-shooting game, drew frenzied applause from .a crowd of nearly ,000. After being tied with Sunderland and Newcastle for third place, Bir- mingham had the position to them. selves by beating Stoke 2-1. They took the lead in the second half despite the fact that Stoke were 1 up at half-time and displayed bet- ter teamwork. Newcastle dropped back into fourth place in a goalless draw with Manchester City. Sun- derland, losing 2-0 to Huddersfield, now is running fifth, More than 60,000--the biggest crowd of the day--saw Arsenal beat Wolverhampton 3-1 en their own grounds.

Simcoe Hall Take s 1st Game Midget Finals--Connaught Park Takes Opener from Eastview 4 Simcoe Hall Scores 12 Runs in Last Two In- nings to Nose Out Vic- tory Aces 16-15 -- Er- rors in 8th and 9th are Costly to Aces Simcoe Hall continued their habit of pulling surprise wins in the B"Nai B'Rith Midget "Softball League when they nosed out Vic- tory Park Aces 16-15 on Saturday night at Victol§ Park, in the first game of, the championship finals. It was a weird game that ended in even more weird manner, with Aces "blowing up" in the 8th and 9th innigs, to allow Simcoe Hall to-come from far behind and take the decision. - Aces opened with four runs in the first inning, added one in the 3rd and two in the 4th. In the 5th they rapped in three more tallies with Jones, Zacharko and Wasylyk leading the way. Jones, Stroz and Hrico all scored again in the 6th, to make it 13-4. Simcoe Hall had scored one run in the second when Czop walked and got home on a couple of wild pitches. In the 4th inning, Bosko- vich 'was safe on an error and scored on another one and a wild pitch. Pointek and J. Tutak both scored in the 5th frame and they didn't do anything against Jones' good pitching, until he and his team blew up in the 8th. The Simcoe Hall boys were still full of fighting spirit and though they were trailing 15-4, they proved they were still in the game when they got their chance in the 8th inning. Right down their entire line-up, they started to hit the ball solidly and Jones issued a couple of walks to help out. Solid smacks found the Victory Aces jittery in the in- field and they cracked open, com- mitting a flock of errors. Simcoe Hall kept piling in the runs, scoring nine before the 3rd out was made, to: make it 13-13. Jones and Stroz both made good on their chances in the last of the 8th and scored on infield outs and hit by Craggs, to make it 15-13. Simcoe Hall were not to be de- nied however, and they came right back in their 9th inning with three runs. Hrycanuk, J. Tutak and Czop coming through in fine style and scoring on wild pitches, as Jones, in desperation went all out. He fanned three batters that inning but those wild pitches were costly. Those three runs made it 16-15 and Simcoe Hall showed their met- tle in the last of the 9th as they shut out Aces without a run, M. Tutak fanning Stroz to end the game, with the tying and winning runs perched on 2nd and 3rd bases. R. H. E.

The important playoff battle was a nip-and-tuck struggle until the 8th inning, with Eastview leading 6-5 but Walker, their hurler, weak- ened and the alert Connaught Parkers came on to take a sur- prise victory over the team that headed the Bantam race all sea- son. Attersley singled in the second and scored on blows by Jack and Alger. In the third, Snape was safe to start it off, Peel walked with one out and two-baggers in succession by Hobbs and "Attersley gave Connaught three more runs. They got their 5th tally in the 6th when Alger scored on a hit, walk and wild pitch. was 6-5 for Eastview going in- to the 8th and Hobbs started, We victory rally to win his own e, being safe on an error. Attersley walked and then Jack singled and so did Dean and an infield out let Jack score and Dean came home on a passed ball, for the 4th run, to make it 9-6. Thev added three more runs in the 9th when Peel walked, "Brodie doubled and so did Hobbs. The latter scored on two infield outs. Eastview took the lead early with three runs in the first inning when Hobbs had a shaky start. He walk- ed the first two batters, Richards and Sharples, and Burr hit a double. An infield out, walk to Branch and another infield out, let Burr score. Two more runs scored in the 2nd when Richards was safe on an er- ror, Sharples walked and Burr and Morrison each singled. In the 5th, Branch singled and scored on Walker's bingle, to give Eastview their 6th run. They had the bases loaded in the 6th but couldn't score as Hobbs fanned Steffen to end the inning. After Connaught took the lead, the best Eastview could do in reply was a lone tally in the 9th when Steffen doubled and Walked tripled. Walker fanned five and walked four while Hobbs whiffed 9 batters and gave out 8 free tickets to 1st base. R.H.E.

They fought back well, with Ma- sowich regaining his form, and they held the Ontario champlons of 1947, scoreless for five innings, while they climbed back to make it 5-4. In the 6th inning, when Masowich singled and moved on a passed ball, Culrl- vine came out and Gr' "nburg took over the pliahing chore. He walked Brooks, his first batter, then fanned Corrigan and Hurst to end the threat.

Intermediate "B" race here on Sat- urday afternoon when they defeat- ed Trenton Merchants 8-3, in the 3rd and deciding game of their semi-final series. A well-pitched game by Venner proved the deciding factor, as he scattered four hits over the first eight innings for one run and kept tight hold of the game all the way. A home-run blow by Christie, in the 4th inning, was Trenton's only successful scoring effort until the 9th, when two successive errors on the first two batters gave them an- other chance, Ilstead was retired trying to steal 2nd after he got on due to a fumble in the outfield. Ellis was safe on Sutman's error at 1st. Christie flied out to centre then Taylor smacked a triple. Ros- enplatt followed with a single to score Taylor with Trenton's 3rd and 'last run of the game, then Hast- ings popped up and the season was over, for the Merchants.

Cowan walk- ed and Venner singled, to load the bases. Wilson grounded to the box, to end the inning with Stev- ens forced at the plate. Farr held New Toronto handily for the next couple of frames but after getting the first two batters in the 5th, he cracked. Wilson singled and Sutman tripled. Elas- chuk singled, scoring Sutman and he went to 3rd when the outfield- er fumbled the ball. Fox then doubled and Gardner walked. An error scored Fox and Gardper--to make it five runs on four hits - enplatt replaced Farr in this Nn- nings, in the box for Trenton. New Toronto didn't do much again until the 8th when Cowan clouted a homer with one out. Then Venner was safe on an Rosenplatt's error, advanced on an outfield catch and scored when Sutman singled. The one bag inning told the story. Sutman and Fox had two hits apiece for the New Toronto team while Samain and Christie each had two safeties for Trenton.

By the looks of some of the scores last night, the people who have bowled in this league for & number of years are going to have to perk up as the new ones coming in sure showed us how Friday night. Two new members Joyce and Fred Smith took top honors for the night with 487 and 461 res- pectively. igh doubles for the men were: Charlie Ferguson 419, Jim Her- vid 404 and Len Wall 400. In the 200's were Len Bollman 239, Luke \Hamilton 28, Ed Henderson 222, Wes - Richards 219, Norm O'Reilly 211, Wilf Ringler 205, Bill Fish 203 and Fred Crome 202. For the ladies': Janet Stark 449.

UAWA MOTOR CITY BOWLING LEAGUE The UAWA League opened their dew season with a bang on Friday night when 20 teams started rolling them down the alleys. With 15 bowlers hitting over the 700 e Major group it looked 'as if the boys had been in action all sum- mer, "Slim" Doyle and "Lefty" Thom- " went a little better with 800 tri- 08. The att for night was most satisfactory and with the teams all equally balanced in the maj- or group we look for a very good sea- son. . Group 2 also got away to a good start and it was most noticeable in this group that no club gained a shut-out, there should be some real battles i this group with the teams so evenly matched. While the scores were not as high as they were in the Major group, the competition was equally as keen and the boys will warm up after a few nights of bowling and should improve.

Sailing with the aid of a nice steady southwest wind, Smith and Grigg grabbed off two nice wing to take home the final. tro- phy of the racing season. In the first heat Howard Kane and D. Stone made a determined effort to overtake the winner, but just couldn't pull enough tricks out of the bag to overtake Smith. In the second and final heat all the skip- pers except Smith elected to run out into the lake to tack down on the west buoy. Smith took the shore tack and it proved the best due fo the sun, which made the buoy difficult to find. As it turned out the winner galloped around the west buoy well out in front to coast home first by a comfortable lead. Now that the final racing series of the season is over, it is planned to hold wildcat races for the bal- ance of the good weather. These races are open to all skippers and if you are eligible and interested, op down next Sunday for the one. First Race 1, A. Smith-T, Grigg 2, H. Kane- D. Stone; 3, R. Pailter; 4, K. Forbes; 5, B.

Montreal Royals Nose Out Chiefs 10-Inning Opener Montreal, Sept. 27--(CP)--Both semi-final series in the Interna- tional baseball league playoffs went the limit of seven games before a winner was decided, and now Syra- cuse Chiefs and Montreal Royals appear headed for a long and hard battle before one club emerges on top with the Governor's Cup. Royals won the opener of the best-of-seven set Saturday night 9- 8 in a game that went 10 innings before 16,2904 fans. Sunday 21,112 rabid Royal rooters--Ilargest crowd of the season--crammed every cor- ner of the ball park to watch their heroes drop a 5-2 decision to the pesky Chiefs. An estimated 5,000 more were turned away Sunday. Timely home run belts in the late innings were the deciding factors in both week-end games. Big. Chuck Connors. Montreal first baseman who tied a league re- cord bi hitting three grand'slam homers during the regular season, rapped out the most sensational four-bagger. Trailing 8-4 going into the bot- tom of the 10th inning in Satur- day's tilt, Royals loaded the bases with none out, and big Chuck stepped up to blast a four-master over the rightflelder barrier and knot the count at 8-8. The fans went will and a perfect ending to a Hollywood finish was supplied by pinch - hitter Cliff Dapper who brought Bob Morgan from second with the winning counter on a doube. A ninth-inning homer by Frank Davis that scored two mates in front of him helped the Chiefs erase a one-run deficit in Sunday's game. They added for good measure to take the contest 5-2, and even the series. Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
