40 THE DAILY TIMBES-GAZETTE, Wednesday, July 20, 1958 SPORTS MENU "Everything from Soup to Nuts" by Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR They shifted the standing in the Inter-County League a little bit last night, with Kitchener climbing back into a tie for first place wit! Brantford, when the Panthers defeated St. Thomas 17-13, in one of those wild, old-fashioned slug- fests with plenty of hits, errors, etc. But two of the top teams got knocked off. Waterloo id Were beaten 5-3 by Guelph at- erloo and that dropped the Tigers out of first place while London Majors were beaten at home by the fast-stepping Galt Terriers, 3-1. Galt is now a full game ahead of -Oshawa and only two full games behind the 4th.place London Maj- ors, who are omg fourth spot, the last playoff berth. Oshawa Meerchants travel up to Kitchener tonight and if they win another from the Panthers, they'll be foing something really worth their whife. Other games tonight find Galt at Guelph; Wat- erloo playing in Brantford and London visiting St. Thomas EI- gins. The results of these four games tonight could also make quite a change in the standing and then of course, there's the big game here tomorrow night, when Brantford Red Sox visit the Merchants. That 13-inning thriller was one of the best ames of the entire season and t should be the means of bring- ing out another banmer crowd to the Stadium here tomorrow night. : If big Bud Ripplemeyer goes to the mound in Kitchener tonight, then we can look for Sither E Re Drapcho or Johnny Walter to try their. left-handed slants against the Red Sox here tomorrow night. Brantford will send a left-hander ainst the Merchants here--that's almost certain, so it will be either Alf Gavey, who won his game the last time Red Sox were here, or Lee Griffeth, who won that thrill- ing 13-inning tilt the week before. Most of the Inter-County teams are sending portsiders against the Mer- chants, who despite the fact they have a lot of right-handed batters, do not do so well against this type of hurling. One of the reasons the Mer chants' hitting has fallen off late- It is that the team, as a whole, has been guilty of swinging at bad pitches. This happens of course, when play- ers go into a slump, they get anxious and start reaching, rath- er than stepping right into the first good one that comes across. It's a vicious circle, this busi- mess of baiting slump and there are numerous theories on how to end same -- but it is generally admitted that it's up to the batter himself, to keep right on swinging and sooner or later, he gets his eye back and the hits * follow. By the look of things, the Merchants are get®:z back on the beam with their hitting and once they get into high gear in this department, they'll be bad news for any pitcher in the league. We're hoping they click in Kitchener tonight and then come right back Here tomorrow might and thrill the fans at Kins- men Stadium with a clean-cut victory over the strong Brant- ford Red Sox squad. The wrestling show at the Osh- awa Arena last night ended in a * sort of anti-climax and both groups of fans, those who wanted to see The Great Togo get smeared and those .who have taken a liking to the little dynamic Jap performer, were disappointed -- the latter up not so much, however, Don Jonathon won the first fall and was headed for a spectacular fin- ish and a two-straight triumph when he made the mistake of underestimating The Great Togo. As Jonathon leaped extra high -- and he can leap, that big -- for "the kill", he suddenly found himself hoisted on up and over ropes. He crashed on the arena floor, was knocked out and failed to rally in time for the third fall, so Togo won the match. Big ball game here tonight is at Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium with the Cobourg Le- gionnaires visiting McCallum Transporters. The local Trans- porters will be out to take this one tonight and so lete their THE BIGGER THEY ARE, ETC. There's an old saying that "the bigger they are --the harder they fall" and it appeared to hold true last night at the Oshawa Arena when Don. Leo Jonathon crashed to the arena floor, right from over top of the ring ropes and knocked himself colder than a mackerel. It happened in the d fall of the night's main bout between Jonathon and The Geat Togo. Don Leo took the first fall with a thril- ling display of aerial tactics that included a flock of flying head scissors and tosses that literally battered The Great Togo into sub- their home stand with a flourish. After that comes playoffs! BRIGHT BITS: The local Indus- trial Softball' League today an- nounces the balance of their sche- dule for the summer and the cur- rent standing . . . Pee Wee Boys softball teams are also into their playoffs--getting ready for an OASA representative to enter On- tario playoffs, in August . . . The Lakeside Ladies' League has also announced further playoff dates in their various sections . . . The bi news concerning Oshawa - Red Raiders and their tie-up with Sas- katchewan Roughriders, had the local football fans agog here yes- terday. It could very well be the "big break" the Red Raiders have deserved for so long. Certainly it should Help them this season and the season, by the way is not too far off . . . Springfield plays here next Wednesday night and Mike Mellis is expected to de the pitch- ing against Oshawa Merchants. This should attract the biggest crowd of the season -- in fact one of the biggest in the history of the Kinsmen Stadium. SPORTS CALENDAR WEDNESDAY LAKESHORE INTER.

He slashed Jonathon across the rieck and then the fore- head until finally Jonathon crash- ed outside the ropes. He was in a heavy fog and even lashed out at the would-be helpers who flocked from the ringside seats to offer him help. However, he finally stag- gered back into the ring and tower- ing to his full height of well over six feet, lowered the boom, in the form of a crashing elbow smash, which came down from skyscraper height to pound the agile Togo in- to slow motion, Once this was ac- complished, Jonathon then proceed ed to employ his knee lifts and hen the flying scissors, to finish off. A punishing leg lock applied by Togo took a great deal of steam out of Jonathon in the early stages of the second fall. The big fellow's massive legs found this treat- ment especially painful and it looked 'as if Togo would even it up on these tactics alone but the second time he tried it, he couldn't keep out of reach of Jonathon's crashing maulers and when he fin- ally let go, Jonathon went into his flying scissors routine again--but adding a little variety by way of a leaping knee smash. HEIGHT PROVES BOOMERANG Jonathon's great height gave Bjax Rerilists Whip Brooklin In a South Ontario County League softball game played last night at Ajax, the Ajax Aerilists Specialists defeated Brooklin Stevenson Motor Sales Intermediates 5-2. It was a game of home-runs with the winners getting a couple and Brooklin one. Bill Harper scor- ed both runs for Brooklin. He put a drive through a hole in the right- field fence for an automatic double to start the second inning and scor- ed after an outfield catch when Bill Croxall flied out. In the 9th inning, Harper hit a homer over the Tight fielder's head. Harper twalked to open the fourth and singled to open the 6th inning, for a perfect night at the plate. How- ever he was the only Brooklin player to have much success against Flipowitz's steady pitching which was backed by solid sup- port too, Ajax having only one er- ror. Ajax got two runs in the first inning on a walk to McGwen, single by Deeth and walk to Ren- nick. Morris grounded, forcing Deeth but Cowdell singled to score Rennick with the second run. Schmidke opened the second with a homer to centre. Ajax got their fourth run in the 6th on a walk to Collins a passed ball, outfield fly and single by Flipowitz, wha further contributed to his ow victory by htting a hom- er in. the 8th- inning for the final Ajax run. He had three hits for the winners and Rennick had. two. BROOKLIN -- D. Mitchell, cf; Johnston, 3b; Graham, rf; Harp- er, If; B. Mitchell, ¢; Croxall, ss; Carnwith, 1b; Schell, 2b; Brown, p.

Jonathon Crashes To Floor Unable To Answer The Bell him valuable advantage in this at- tack, as he leaped high in the air and then came crashing down with b~*h knees across Togo's should- ers. te was quickly pounding Togo lower and closer to the mat but as The Great one reeled against the ropes, Jonathon came rushing across the ring and leaped extra high, for what was to be the coup de grace -- but the wily Jap was not quite as groggy as/he looked. As Jonathon went up, Togo dropped down and then hoisted the big fel- low right up, cver and outside the ropes. -Jonathon crashed to the floor, headfirst and the jar shook the ringsiders right out of their seats. The screams of Jonathon's rooters didn't help either. Referee Bunny Dunlop counted the full ten and then raised Togo's hand in token of victory. The howls of derision from Jona- than's fans turned to dismay as fit became obvious their favorite was badly hurt. They carried him from the ring on the first-aid stretcher and 'called for a doctor. Jonathon was still "out" long after the fans had gone home. They went home when the usual rest period had elapsed and The Indians Win Union Picnic Ball Tourney The Indians went on the war path in the Union Picnic annual softball tournament and captured top honors when they defeats Combines 97 in the final game. It was a sensational comeback that won the plecnic title for the Tribe. Combines scored two runs in the second and a pair in the third and took a 4-2 lead. Indians had scored two in the first. They got another in the fifth to make it 4-3 but Combines came up with a three-run splurge in the sixth, McKee, Badgley and West all scoring, to make the count 7-3 and it looked as if the tournament was all over. However, in the last of the 8th, Indians let out their war-whoop and started to roll. Foster and Csuhaj both got on and then with one out, Tamblyn hit a homer. Harman singled and Jordon then homered to make the count 8-7 and hits by DePratto and Bien- kowski produced another run for Indians, before the inning ended. That six-run rally took all the steam out of Combines and Tamb- lyn retired them in order in the 9th, striking out the last to end the game and tournament.

DOWNED EAGLES IN SEMI's In the semi-final round, Indians defeated the Eagles 12-8 with two tremendous scoring splurges at the start of the game producing the entire total of a dozen runs. Indians got five runs in the first frame and added seven in the second stanza.".After that they didn't do a thing against the Eagles' 'pitcher but they had al- ready done enough. Eagles had scored four runs at the start but Foster and Tamblyn held them after that, with Eagles getting single tallies in the last four frames to complete their to- tal.

"Biscuits" and Patrick Flanagan the. had quite a go too, before it was League Leadership In Big I-C Puzzle By THE CANADIAN PRESS The fight for leadership in the Senior Intercounty Basebzll League remained jumbled today after two of the top teams traded places in the run for the pennant. However, it was those same Brantford Red Sox who backed into first place Monday night that held on to top spot by standing idly by. Kitchener Panthers drubbed the cellar-dwellng St. Thomas Elgns 17-13 Tuesday night to vacate sec- ond place for Waterloo Tigers who dropped a 5-3 decision to Guelph settled. They both tried full nelson holds and head lock grips only to find the opponent able to get out from under and the end came un- expectedly when Flanagan sudden- ly reversed his tactics and put a reverse cradle on Zybsko and pinned his shoulders clean -- al- though the loser "cried" to the fans that he had only been dowi for a count of two. In the preliminary bout, Bill Stack and Man Mountain Dean Jr. fought to a full half-hour draw. The highlight of the action came after the time limit bell sounded, when Stack ripped off the band- age which Man Mountain had been using effectively on Stack's eyes, and proceeded to rub Dean. Jun- ior's face in rugged fashion--until the referee finally got it stopped. Woodview Bantams Beat Harmony Girls Woodview Park Bantam girls de- feated Harmony girls 12-7 last night at Woodview Park. The winners staged a big 9-run rally in the third inning to win the game, with Vennor and Norse- worthy. both hitting home-runs. Armitage had a homer in the first inning and Dowe hit one in the sixth for the winners. Todgham hit a homer for Har- mony in the first inning but the Harmony batters didn't do too much against Armitage's pitching until the 5th and 6th innings and\ by then it was a little late.
