Thursday, August 24, 195 Juves Jolt Georgetown Capture With Don Rutledge's big sparking an 11-hit attack, Corbett's Snow Construction juv- eniles rolled to a 14-8 win over Georgetown Saturday night at Wallace park in a replay of the third game of the Halton county title series. The local juves will now proceed into 0.B.A. play- downs, although a first round opponent has not yet been nam- ed. bat Bud Rutledge crashed out a triple and three singles as he and his mates jumped into a commanding 12:1 lead during the first six frames. Also contributing to the assault "on Wiltshire were Jerry Kaplan and Denny Camm with two bingles each, and Grant Red- Halton Title shaw with a line double. Wilf Herbert, who tossed nice ball most of the way, ran into dif- ficulties in the seventh, when the visitors nicked him for four hits, a pair -of walks and seven coun- ters. He tightened from that point on, however, aided and abetted by some strong infield support, even going so far as to retire the side via the strikeout route on nine pitches in the final chucker. Gary Hughes, who came up with a pair of picture plays in the fifth, was a flelding standout, while Rutledge and Johnson also came up with some sharp defen- sive play.

Final count was 7-3, vis: iting twirler Johnny Mowat hold- ing the figure that low by nipping three promising rallies by bear- ing down at critical moments. Al Yarnell yielded but six safe blows, and was his old reliable self in the few pinches that de- veloped. In the sixth, after Hough homered and two men were on the_paths with only one away. Al fanned the next two batters. And again in the ninth, with a runner on third, the veteran coolly whif- fed the seventh of his strikeout victims to end the game. Kenny Pollock, played a stand- out game at short, despite the fact that he was on the receiving end of a first frame body check from hockeyist Apples Fink: biener as the latter = was nipped at second, and later stopped one of Mowat's hooks with his nog- gin. Ken and Harry Herd earn ed accolades for their smooth fielding, while . the diminutive shortstop's three hits paced the attack. Herd doubled and singled while Ray Patterson came up with a brace of singles and Hank Galbraith contributed a triple. A brief rhubarb that followed Finkbiener's crash into Pollock saw the burly Acton centrefield- er and; Ed Wollons banished for exchanging blows. TAKE OPENER Shelling three Fergus hurlers for ten markers in the opening frame, the Oaks coasted to a 13- 3 win over Fergus Victorias in the opening encounter of the best four-in-seven final series last Saturday at Fergus. Falling gleefully on the offer- ings of Gutpell and Leader, and then continuing on to rough up Miller considerably before that worthy retired the side, the ram- paging Oaks batted almost twice round the lineup before were brought under control the. Vic's third moundsman. Leading the willolv foray were Ray Patterson, with a double and two singles, and Jackie May, pa- trolling right field in this game, who cashed three solid singles. Ben: Languay added a double and a single, while large Harry Herd kicked in a triple and a single to the Oaks' 14-hit total Mark Pollock twirled a nice brand of ball for the locals, sting- ily doling out six safeties as he rigidly mastered the Fergus bat- ting order all the way. Mark got excellent support from Hank Galbraith, who was stabbing lin- ers in class AA style, and Herd, whose phenomenal covering of the initial sack is reminiscent of Bill Durnan in his best splits hockey goal-tending performing BOWLERS WIN A rink of Oakville Mr. and Mrs. Ed.
