Campbell SPORTS EDITOR The course of one bad inning! What seems to be the unfortunate - fwouble that Oshawa young right bander, Bill Hanrahan has to over- some. He pitched a masterful duel with lefthander Bill Allen in Kit- ehener last night but the Merchants weve nosed out 1-0. The winning and only run of the game was soored when Hanrahan hit two bat- fers with pitched balls and issued two walks, all in the same inning --forcing in the run. Oshawa load- ed the bases in the sevenfh but Herman Mason couldn't click. In the other games played last Waterloo trounced the Galt Terriers 17-7 to keep with- ia reach of Kitchener and first place while in the other game, Guelph moved back up to 6th place after a long stay behind Galt, when they won a 10-inning decision, 7-6, over the Brantford Red . There are no games scheduled tonight and the Mer- chants are also idle tomorrow night. They were going to have an exhibition game here with the Hamilton Cardinals but the Pony League vetoed that move. Oshawa Merchants visit Guelph on Friday night and then on Sat- urday, they play the Kiwanis All- Star game here at Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium.

Kitchener's Bill Allen was only Merchants loaded the bases in the seventh when Fran Dyson doubled for the only extra base hit of the game and Allen walked Hanrahan and Jones to jam the sacks with two away.

CKLB Wiideats trounced Motro- ettes 12-6 in a game that had to be called off after seven complete innings of play, due to darkness. The Wildcats took full advantage of three-straight walks and an out- field error, then a single and an infield error, to score four runs in the first inning. They continued in the second inning and by that time the Motorettes were out of the running. , With Roberta Hale pitching steady ball for the Wildcats and also getting good support, to back up her 9-strikeout performance, the Motorettes didn't have much chance. They got a run in the second on an infield error and an infield out but they didn't socre again until the 7th when Hale weakened and Motorettes bunched three solid hits, including doubles by Honemany and Luke, plus a walk and two errors, to score five runs and make a good finish of it. Wildness on the part of the Mot- orette pitchers, plus errors in the infield, were the chief weaknesses. Wildcats actually didn't do much in the way of heavy hitting--but then they didn't have to.
