COMBINATION DOORS Halton Hardware COLBORNE ST. E. BEN AND RAY TOP ALL OAKS WITH WILLOW Benny Languay and Ray Patter- son topped all Oak hitters through the regular season, league play- offs and the Crowland series, fig- ures released by official scorer Vern Busby revealed this week. Both sport marks of .323 Benny, however, = has tapered over nearly a hundred points since the playoffs began, and is work- ing hard to shake off the slump that sent his percentage skidding. Paul Gilliam, on the other hand has happily watched his mark jump appreciably since playoff time rolled, around. Paul had a very indifferent regular season, but timely clouting against Fer- gus and Crowland boosted his. to tal to a fourth place .287 Kenny Pollock, who continues to hit con- sistently, boasts a neat .311 av- erage. Other figures posted by the reg- ular squad include: Harry Herd .283; Ed. Wollons, .264; Hank Galbraith, .240; and Andy Milne, .222. Coach Cliff post has hit .297 on 27 trips to the plate, while pitcher-outtield Frank May has a 275 total. Despite his lowly average, Hank Galbraith has proven his worth as a clutch hitter, tieing Patterson for the runs batted in lead with 20. Languay is second In this de- partment with 16, Gilliam; has 14, and Milne and Herd both drove home 13 markers. Of the squads 15 home runs, Milne and Wollons have clouted three each while Herd, with four, had the most triples. Patterson's 9 doubles put him in a class by himself, Ken Puck Tryout Providers of a big part of the scoring punch shaken loose. by. last season's Lakeshore: inter mediate -hockeyists, the ace front line of Ray Patterson, Hank Galbraith and Jack Davi- son will try out this fall with Hamilton's senior Tigers, Tab- by coach George Redding an- nounced this week. Redding scouted the local lads during the latter part of last winter, and feels they may have some of the youthful pepperoo he needs as he sets out to' rejuven- ate his ageing Bengals. Pollock and Languay trailing with 7 and 6, respectively. Pollock, who! has 106 official trips to the plate and Is the only Oak over the cen- tury in this regard, had the most hits with 33 bingles for 40 bases. Hurling averages show that, in rolling up 22 wins in 28 games, manager Al Yarnell boasts the most victories with 10 wins against two losses. Earl Pentz Who hasn't worked recently, has the "only unblemished record, win- ning both his games. Mark Pol lock sports "a 7 and 2 average, while Frankie May, the squad's hard luck tosser, is shooting .500 with a 3 and 3 count. * DAVISON! RETAINS FAIRWAY SUPREMACY, STREETSVILLE BOWLERS | TAKE ARCHIBALD TROPHY In a keenly contested tourna- ment, a rink of Streetsyille bowl: ers captured the R. H. Archibald memorial trophy at the Oakville Lawn Bowling Club's green on Saturday. The winning rink was skipped by Clare Pope, other members being Bill Gould and Mrs. J. Miller. They had three wins 'to their credit, with a total score of 63. William Anderson of Oakville, with Mrs. Anderson and Charlie Phillips, scored 51 points to win second place. Third hon- ors went to Ed, Cooper of Port Credit, who with Mrs. Cooper and Frank Taylor had two wins with a. score of 46. Colin Imeson, of Oak- ville, with Miss A. Kemp and George Kemp, were in fourth place with a total of 45 points. Bowling weather was ideal, and three 12-end games were played. The bowlers stopped play to take tea served by the ladies. At the conclusion of play the trophy was presented to the winners by Mrs. R. H. Archibald. On Thanksgiv- ing day, mext Monday, the club will stage a mixed trebles. Entries may be phoned to the secretary. DEFEATS WILLIS Although he failed to come through with 'onel*of his usual playoff assaults-- on. par, Jack Davison stroked his way to & 4 and 3 victory over Jimmy Willis Sunday to retain his Oakville Golf Club title status. It was a tense, busy day for Jack, and his display was a noteworthy one. Coming in from his first 18 hole round with a comfortable three-up margin, Davison learned his wife was ill, rushed home, rushed the little lady to hospital where she underwent an appen- dectomy, then rushed back to the fairways to tee of for his second round. Challenger Wills rallied briefly at this point to be only one down at the turn, but Jack came up with some fine golf at this point to end the match at the 15th. Davison added further to his blossoming laurels Friday when he was low amateur at Elks pro-am- ateur tourney at Scarborough with a tidy 76. Oakville pro Les Louth finished third among the money- ed shotmakers with another 75, being topped only by Gordon Brydson's 72 and Bob Gray's 74. MATMEN READY FOR TAG DAY, AUSSIE STYLE Encouraged by the success of their initial wrestling card at Vie torfa rink, the Oakville recreation commission has lined up an Aus- tralian tag team match to head- line an encore presentation this Friday night, October 6. Bobby Nielsen, the local former grappler who proved he still has plenty on the ring ball by the way he hand- led last week's card, will again be the referee. Villains of the team match will undoubtedly be Wild Billy Cody, of Buffalo, and Pete Raimon, a Hungarian mat import. This row- dy pair will be out to squelch, maul and generally manhandle those two sterling gentlemen from Toronto, Jack Sibthorpe and Les Lyman, who wrestle with the naive assumption that justice and goodness triumph over all. Their record proves that they are us- ually right in this belief--but they often find that this plan of action is mighty hard on the physique. 1t should be a bruising battle. It will be a busy weekend for Ron Anderson and his bustling grid Braves, who start a home stand that will see them rattle off three games in ecight days. The local pigskin chasers will play hosts to Malton Fliers on Saturday afternoon &t Wallace park, then come right back Thanksgiving day to tackle Dun- das Bombers, who are present ly deadlocked with Parkdale Lions for the loop leadership. The Braves | are in the third slot at the moment, and can do themselves a great deal of good by coming up with a victorious holiday weekend performance. Ralph Sturrup, playing prexy of the club, is hopeful that the BRAVES PREP FOR TWO BIG WEEKEND GRID TUSSLES HERE ritiles wi fm happily during this home stand. Finan- cing a football club is a mighty tough proposition urider the most advantageous circumstances, and friend Sturrup and his as- sociates 'are getting to the point where it would be a huge relief to see a few bills imprint- ed by the Canadian Bank Note Co.--instead of just the kind that request payment. They promise you plenty of action for your admission fee, so why not sharpen up a real turkey appe- tite by turning out to watch these ambitious young grid gladiators dash through their pigskin paces.? Hughes Hunts Cagemen For Town Hoop Loop With prospects for a bigger and better basketball season looking brighter daily, recreation director Ted Kennedy and hoop enthusiast Bill Hughes are still looking for a] few more basketeers to round out their proposed town league for the coming season. "A strong In- termediate squad to be entered in the Toronto league seems to be pretty well assured, but we would like a few more lads for the four team house loop we hope to run," Bill told the Journal yesterday. "They don't have to be experienc- ed players--just enthusiastic players." Any prospective hoopman with this lone qualification can sign on the dotted line by contacting Kennedy at 1589 or Hughes at 5T9W. | WE DELIVER PHONE 983 | WRESTLING Saturday Evening, Oct. 7 - 8.45 p.m. (D.S.T.)

And its not to be won- dered at, as Frank Russell now has 108 teams trundling in 17 leagues, with one or two more loops still shaping up. Frank still has a little afternoon time for latecomers to league schedules, but otherwise the agenda is a pretty solid one. Norm Withnell tops early high scorers with a 378 single which he went on from to pile up an 882 high triple. Jo Heath's sturdy 296 is the best single to date among feminine pin topplers, while Marg Lawrence has the best triple with 632.
