In case of rain, the game will be played on the Thursday or Monday even- ing immediately following, Mr. Shears stated. Standing pat with a line-up which, after a slow start, has be- come a formidable force both afield and at the plate, Manager Chris Speyer is supremely confi- dent that the Oaks have all the Power necessary to repeat last year's triumphs. Certainly the all-round display of the locals in cent weeks would seem to jus- fy his optimism, The Oaks met stiff opposition in the Milton series opener, being hard pressed to eke out a slender 9-8 victory over the lads from the county seat. Local fans had plenty to cheer for, however, and feel that, with the chips down, Speyer's battlers will continue to be front runners. | 4 oRRATILE. _ SEE OAKVILLE MOTORS CHEVROLET & OLDSMOBILE SALES & SERVICE | Phone 460 !

Morrison \ Last March 14-year-old Mar- lene Bauer beat her 23-year-old sister Alice to win a women's tournament out Indiana way. A couple of weeks later Alice be- came the Palm Springs woman's champion. About a month later Alice was the victor when the two met for the finals for the Los Angeles women's golf cham- pionship. Two weeks more found Alice and Marlene finishing first and second, respectively, in the annual women's event at Santa Cataline island. Accounts of these and other local tournaments in which the sisters play deal mainly with what the two of them do. Yes, there are many other players in the field. While they don't in- clude any Patty Bergs or Babe Didricksons, they do represent the better feminine competitors on the Pacific coast. - Everyone wonders about the things that enable the Bauer girls to do so well from tee to green. The girls are not tall and they haven't the weight usually con- nected with hard hitting. Yet, | both get good length with clubs. Alice, weighing 102 pounds, finds it easy to get well over 200 yards off the tee and close to the same distance when hitting brassie shots through the fairway. Clubhead speed does the job for her even as it affords both power and accuracy for Hogan, Locke, Mangrum and all other consistently successful players. To produce this speed Alice takes an exceptionally long backswing, allowing the club to drop behind her until it points directly at the ground. Her father and main source of instruction, has prob- ably given her to understand that this long sweeping motion helps to prevent clubhead speed. There are many good points about her swing, also a few kinks that will cause trouble as she gets older. Being up on both toes at impact is one of these. It had to be eliminated from Bobby Jones' swing before he won his grand slam. HALTON MEETS LINCOLN Playing as Halton county rep- resentatives, Oakville Cricket club will meet Lincoln county cricket- ers at the Appleby college pitch in a special holiday match Mon- day. The match is a second round meeting in the county cup com- petition.
