| i i MIKE McARTHUR Catcher JOHN "CRABBY" JOZKOSKI Thirdbase , GEORGE "BUNNY" MAESON Firstbase BIG GAME SATURDAY | Transporters Place Seven Men On S. Ontario All-Star Squad The Oshawa McCallum Trans- porters, Lakeshore League cham- pions, placed seven men on the 15-man South; Ontario All-Star team which wil meet the Oshawa Merchants of the '¥ntercounty Sen- jor Baseball League this coming Saturday night (8 p.m.) at Civic Stadium. The game is the first annual benefit affair arranged and spon- sored by the Oshawa Kiwanis club. All proceeds will go towards the |' 'club's service work in the com- munity. : Members of the local Intermed- fate "A" team who made the all- star squad selected by the sports- writers of the circuit, are Ted Stone, Mike McArthur, Bunny Mae- son, Frank Varga, John Jozkoski, Ted "Barnes and Bill Cook. BIG VOTE CATCHER x Ted Stone, the cross-firing right- hander who has a 7-0 record in- cluding two no-hit games this sea- son, was the biggest vote-getter in the poll. Mike McArthur was selected as reserve catcher with poll vote of one below that of Whitby's Gord Hanna. Mike led the Transporters at bat through the middle portion CHECKING SPORT By BOB RIFE Some of those very peculiar types known as sportswriters will start to drift into this city very shortly to witness one of the big baseball events of the current season. There'll be men of this par- ticular trade coming from some seven centres around Soutnera Omario in al for urpose seeing el 3 me the (2k stote ague's '"'dream team' per- form a; t the Inter-county Senior Oshawa Merchants. Of coirse some other kinds of fellovs will also be around . . . they call them fans. There's only one thing wrong With, dem RD they aren't usually peculiar! Yep, we're speaking of the big "aow-its-going-to-be - an- nual" KIWANIS ALL-STAR BENEFIT GAME. It's booked for Civic Stadium this Satur di ight at 8.00 p.m. We'll be there with the rest of thos types . . . 'cause we did have some hand in the vot- a, Yourth, Maeson, Var: ga and Jozkoski were all ours, so we don't feel too bad. rdon of the Cobourg Star figured we'd be fooled on that s:condbase slot, but Maxie Sours is still tops with us foo, ly . He also voted for Dou, Loucks of Lindsay as seco choice in the pitching depart- ment with a note tagged on that | « « "Bet that fooled you Wel, it did and it didn't. We figured Doug as second best, and Durston as third along with Crawford of Whit- by, fut we heard that Loucks has kft Lindsay and so decid- ed hai put our Jackson in the spot. Yor fans, will have fun secord-guessing the all - star choites and the all - star coacies and trying for a win on tie TV set. The game will be pretty even though the odds favor .the Merchants. Ya see, some 10 of the Stars have played senior ball within the hast two years. That should give the Merchants cause to ster quickly. Vv CHECKLETS -- We note where the Lindsay Merchants and the Whitby Merchants have now played two games of their semi-final series. Lind- say won the first 3-2, and last night defeated Whitby in the "second game 10-9. They need but one win to oust the Coun- ty Town crew. It will be played Friday in Lindsay. The winner of the set, a 3-of- 5 affair meets the Transporters in the Inter 'A" Lakeshore final. That series could easily start next Wednesday . . . if all goes according to plan. We hear that the Woodview has just completed an unde- feated season. The other night they defeated Sunnyside Park by a 2925 score and made their manager Catherine Me- Eachern very happy. .. This is the first club of which we've heard that has gone through an undefeated season. If you know of any others how about buzzing us on the phone. The same goes for fish stories. We've heard a couple, but would be glad to hear and print any that you have. The latest is a catch by a local fisherman of some repute. He's" Robert Lambert, younger brother of another fine fisher- man, Ron Lambert. Robert ed into a big Ger- man Brown Trout . . . the kind the Jrovince has been stocking local streams with recently. The fish weighed three and three-quarter pounds, measur- ng 21 inches from snoot to Rob took the trout on a grass- hopper in the hot and hazy noon sun on an undisclosed stream at a ditto spot. We'll have a picture of the big one soon too we hear. It's the largest trout that Rob has ever brought to land and cer- tainly is one of the biggest we've ever seen caught locally. + +» « by Bob Rife. of their schedule. His mark hov- ered near the exclusive .500 notch for. a period of four weeks just before the end of the schedule. Bunny Maeson was second high . | vote-getter in the poll and was an easy choice for the firstbase spot. His grea' height, fine defensive play and a batting mark over .300 all added to his star rating. Fank Varga, still junior-aged, was by far the most popular pick for the shortstop position. He play- ed with the Transporters last year as a junior, and though he had a poor season, showed the promise that has been blossomed into his sparkling play this year. He leads the Transporters in stol- en bases and in walks, showing his fine eye and his great speed. He has also proven himself to have the strongest arm on the team through some great tosses from the deep hole at short. John Jozkoski was another big leader... and in his specialty, the thirdbase post, "Crabby" has been and still is rated tops by anyone who sees him play the spot. RATED TRIPLE "A" Jimmy Jones, centrefielder for the Oshawa Merchants rated him as capable a defensive player as most in the International League. His btting has slacked off this year from highs of .300 the past couple of seasons. The main rea- son for this...and his missing quite a few league contests this year, was a pulled arm muscle. Ted Barnes and Bill Cook were the outfield choices of the writers in some very close ballotting. Barnes picked up points for his great defensive play and speed on the basepaths, while Bill Cook's slugging, he currently leads the Transporters with an over .500 mark, was undoubtedly the reason most writers picked him for right field. Speaking of rights and lefts, the writers also picked . the all-star coach and his assistant. 'Grey Fox" Campbell of Cobourg got the top choice, while Gord "Snowball" Willson of Oshawa became his left- handed, right-hand-man. BESTED BY ONE Campbell polled one vote more than Willson and it is easy to see why those two stood above the field. Campbell's . Cobourg Legion ~--a lowly-rated Intermediate "B"' team was for quite a while in sec- ond place in the standings. Willson's Transporters have of course nailed down the title and lost but one game in doing so. They have also copped three no- hitters . . . two in succession... in the process. Other players selected to the team were ex-Transporters in Whit- by, Gord Neal, Gord Hanna and Don Crawford, and also Frank Hooper in Bowmanville. Hooper polled votes for three positions and so became one of the two utility infielders. The same occurred with playing-coach Joe Stewart of the Lindsay Merchants. One other Lindsay player was selected . . . Joe Lowrey. He was picked as top outfielder in the league. His batting and great speed afoot no doubt accounted for that, although he has also done a lot of pitching for Lindsay... one win, that 3-2 decision over the Transporters! Maxie Yourth, the playing-man- ager of the Bowmanville Roses was given top choice by almost all the writers as secondsacker. The only other player who polled votes for that post was Whitby's Ken MacDonald. The only player who polled enough votes and who came from Cobourg was Clark Harnden, their hard-hitting outfielder. Peterboro, Colborne and Port Hope failed to place any players on the All-Star club. Quickly and Aécurately Filled PRESCRIPTIONS --- Of MITCHELL'S DRUG STORE 9 Simcoe N. Diel 3-3431 CRA Pee Wee Race Down to 2 Games The big moment has arrived in the current summer series of CRA Pee Wee Baseball. The race has been narrowed down to two teams, The East Area Tigers who have won five, lost two and the North Area Giants who have a re- cord of five and two. It was these same two teams who last year fought it out for the title. At that precise time the North: took the | title in 2 of 3 games. The North took the' first game of the CRA Little World Series 4-1. The East retaliated with an 8-7 win over the North in the second game only to lose the Championship in the last game of a three game ser- ies 5-4. So the same two teams shall go at it this year, with the and the Championship. This year's North Area team has i eight of their 13 championship team players back for this season while the East Area Team has only two veterans who returned for this season. They formed the nucleus of a team of rookies that play a brand of ball high above that of a rookie team. The probable pitchers for this year's Little World Series will be --for the North Lyn Middleton. Lyn played on last year at short stop but moved to pitcher this sea- son and proved himself very able by throwing a no-hitter against the South Area Dodgers. On the hill for the Tigers will be Danny Mec- Master or Jim Huchison. McMas- ter who is a lefty has also shone in this year's series by hurling a 2-hitter and striking out 14 out of 15 possible batters. The first game of the "Little World Series" will be played at Bathe Park on Monday morning August 24th at 9.30 a.m. The sec- ond game will be played at Con- naught Park Tuesday morning at 9.30 a.m. The third game if neces- sary will be played at Alexandra.

Minor Lacrosse final playoffs be tween the South and the West was played at Storie Park Wednesday morning. The South defeated the West 6-0. The game was a rough and tumble one with occasional fights breaking out. The West had the first two goals scored against them while they didn't have a goalie. Butch An- drews arrived late and the South took advantage of this. The West layed good lafrosse up until the ast quarter when the roof fell They were shorthanded two men because of penalties. The South were led by Melnick, Bradica and Campbell. They im- proved vastly over their last game and checked the West to a stand- still. Kicinko and Simmons were especially brilliant on defence. Tureski scored three goals and Melnick, Bradica, Olynuk and Campbell potted singletons. The difference in the score was because of the inspired play of Carl McPherson, the South goalie. He stopped every shot on him, hard and soft alike, and worked to really earn his shutout, WEST SHARKIES: Goal-An- drews; def.-Molloy, Milton; for- wards-Williams, Jackman: centre- Brady: Alt.-Sutton, McCrimmond.

Game time is 2 p.m. The Bowmanville crew were semi- finalists in the Lindsay tournament and were defeated by the Lindsay boys who did the same to the Osh- awa team. The Bowmanville ended up in the semi-finals by feating the Ajax Pee Wees. This should give an added attraction and' add a lot of suspense before this game is played. Some of the boys who played in Lindsay are sure to be in the line- up this Saturday. They are Jim Huchison, John' Piper, Jackie Ly- ons, Danny Gray, L; Middleton, John Cole, Al Dick. These are some of the boys who are respon- sible for the fine showing in Lind- say. Storie Park is located between new highway (401) and Mill Street.
