F gedion B pore Hoy Merchants nosed out Scugog e opener and Bad Boys turned back Gale's nightcap. Both games produced some snap- fielding plays -and solid hitting, with all four pitchers in "usual but still not nearly the crowd that such high calibre entertainment deserves. There's a single game onight, at , at Alexandra Park and another one in Brooklin, p.m. ' ' HIGHLIGHT of the annual "Honors Night" for the Oshawa '" t, th other , was the ria qeeohe, to "Tom" Cotie. Back in the years when Osh- * have even the Children's Arena, the group of de- ed hockey for the youth of this city, really had a tough Se Tey used to have to secure transportation for the boys and then take weekly schedule play. Prior to those days and all through that period. "Tom" Cotie was the hard-working secretary of the Oshawa Minor Hockey Association. Voting him the Bradley Memorial Trophy "for most outstanding contribution of service minor hockey" has to be one of the wisest ve the committee will ever make for this ho and no minor hockey booster in this city--and we are fortunate to have a lot of them -- who ever has the honor of, having his name engraved on this trophy, can be more deserving. THORNTON'S Sports Committee, the group of residents on "Thornton's Road and nearby Thornton's Corners, are having a do on Saturday, to raise funds, via a silver collection, to supply their boys and girls with sweaters and equipment for their team sports activities. They're dubbed it a "Ball-O-Rama", with a "Screwball Game" at 1:30 p.m., a bantam girls' game between North Oshawa and Thornton's, at 3:30 p.m. and another "Screw- ball" softball game at 6:00 p.m. All the ball games are on their own diamond, at the Thornton's school yard, Thornton's Road North. In the evening, a "Teen Dance" is being held in the hall, with door prizes, etc. The description of "screwball" as @ version of softball, is somewhat vague--they're keeping the gimmicks secret but_ chairman Earl Newell promises a lot of laughs and entertainment for all the friends and neighbors who turn up Saturday, to see the fun. BILL CROTHERS thrilled a crowd of almost 20,000 spectators at Varsity Stadium, last night, as he put on his famoiis "home stretch kick" to beat out world champion Peter Snell, in the half-mile event. It was the first time that Crothers has been able to lead Snell to the tape -- in five meetings. There were gome world records equalled and the\Canadian athletes made a brilliant showing against some of the best in the world. But the big victory of the night was at the turnstiles--they had '19,633 cash customers--which has to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest crowds to watch a track and field meet in Can- ada, with the exception of the British Empire games at Van- couver some years back. Thanks to Bruce Kidd, Bill Crothers, Abby Hoffman and the others, the track and field sport is ready doubeheader run off, neither game job.

The Crothers - Snell duel saw the 24-year-old Canadian turn the tables decisively on the Olympic champion, who ~ out- generalled him at Tokyo. In that race, Snell suddenly zoomed past Crothers with 'about 200 yards to go and opened up a safe lead before the Canadian was able to match his burst. This time Crothers never let Snell out of his sight. When the 26 - year - old New Zealander) made his bid on the far turn, the bespectacled druggist ,moved with him. They were level with 35 yards to go and Crothers pulled away to' win by two yards. His time was 1;8.4, well under the stadium record, to Snell's 1:48.6. SNELL PHILOSOPHICAL Both runners agreed the slow "second first lap mray have! influenced the result but Snell! *was philosophical about it. : "You can't go on. finishing | first time after time,'" he said "Tf I had to be beaten, I'm glad it was Crothers."' | While the New Zealander} plans to retire after a forth-| coming campaign in Europe,| Crothers said he is getting) stronger and. plans to continue. | "As Jong as I enjoy running V'll keep running and I really enjoy it,' he added, Clarke turned the tables on Bob Schul who beat him in the 5,000 metres at Toyko, as well- as Mills. Schul was a_ well- beaten last in the field of seven, reversing the Olympic result in which the Australian was ninth of 11 runners. His fellow - Australian, Albie Thomas and New Zealander Bill Baillie were next in line behind the first three. Dave Ellis of Toronto was sixth, breaking the Canadian native record with his, clocking of 13:29.0. Clarke blamed the stadium's sharp corners and his rigorous North American tour for his failure to lower the world rec- | world'sxecord mark, for the mile.
