The local gridders were on their toes throughout the half to claim a full share of the play, and a hard charging line gave Lion backs an uncomfort- able time of it. Lions Forge Ahead The Toronto squad gradually eased into the driver's seat in the second half, however, as Sully Ford romped for a converted try and Hurst broke through to break up a play behind the Brave line for a safety. Ron Anderson's lads tried hard to haul down that eight point lead, but the Lion defensive wall proved just a bit too much for them, \ \ Good Show So ended a season that has been a fairly successful ome for the unsponsored Braves, albeit a rather discouraging one from the financial standpoint. The local crew posted four wins to finish third in the five team group, showing pronounced superiority over both Malton fliers and Nia- gara Falls Cataracts, and their enthusiasm in the face of many operating difficulties seems to in- dicate clearly that the grid pas: time is gaining a strong foothold here. However, equal interest on the part of volunteer non-playing ex- ecutive workers (presently 'a de- cidedly minus quantity) and tewn fandom must be drummed up be- fore 'next autumn rolls around if the progress sparked by lads like Johnny Black, Bill Hughes, Ralph Sturrup and Anderson is to be reap i ing the operation of a rugby club are not inconsiderable, and the need of sponsor and spectator support becomes increasingly ap- parent as Brave officers scan the red ink entries the past season has splashed onto their ledger sheets. HOOP SEASON NOW ROLLING basketball house league, from which the inter- mediate Oakville Grads will be chosen, got under way last Mon- day night at the high school gym. Barly games will be something in the nature' of a sorting out sess- ion, with the loop getting down to serious competition later. According to Ted Kennedy, the four squads will carry the colors of the Jaycees, Lorne Scots, H.S. teachers and Oakville Braves football club. Ted expects to see a fair brand of competition, too, and rattled off a list of experien- ced hoopsters to prove his point. Among them were Doug Junkin, former Central Y senior star, Ralph' and Jim Sturrup, Ron An- derson, Ewart Carberry, Al Nich- olls, Tloyd Minshall, Blake Tuck, A four-team BRAVES BOW TO PARKDALE END REGULAR LOOP AGENDA ARENA PUTS NEW GINGER INTO "SHORES With welcome news that arti- ficial ice will soon be available putting a new spring into their steps and a new lit into their baritones, executives of Oakville Lakeshores this week began lay- ing plans for another intermediate O.H.A. hockey campaign. And al- ready they are promising a top- flight contender for the" "A" ser- jes title that has narrowly escap- ed them these past two seasons. Yes, recent progress on the Oakville-Trafalgar Community Centre Arena has provided a much brighter outlook for the puck en- thusiasts who have willingly yet wistfully waved goodbye to the sizeable roll of folding currency that has gone toward renting out- of-town Ice for Lakeshore's games and practices. And with prospects of climbing out of the red ink bot- tle becoming better each day, they are once more Johnny-on-the-spot in lining up another scrappy squad. "Actually, it won't be, another squad," declared Jim Steed, pop- ular manager- for lo, these many winters. "It will be practically the same squad, strengthened by the addition of afew new speedsters. Duke Carberry will be sponsoring the club again, Bert Peer is on the line again as coach, and with the possible exceptions of Dill McNally, who is down east, and Buckley and Salvisberg, - who haven't been in touch with us yet, the same material will be avail able. Gary Legear, Jim reports, is ready~for another busy season in the nets, while a previous report that the first front line of Ray Patterson, Jack Davison ._and Hank Galbraith will be working out with Hamilton Tigers was apparently merely someone's wishful thinking. Giggs Watson should be in top shape after a rug- ged grid campaign, and other re- liables like. Kevin Speck, George Kennedy and Green will be on hand again. Newcomers may be Andy and Stan Milne, speedy and experien- ced former Toronto mercantile campaigners, while Kenny Brown, up from junior ranks should prove helpful. Lakeshores will arrange Georgetown or Milton practice sessions while awaiting the aren- a's completion. OAKS WIN (Continuing from Page 1) Harry Herd across the rubber and letting Patterson go all the way to third. Benny Languay cashed Ray with a singleton to right. Wagner, an oldtimer who now does more pitching with his head than With his ageing right arm, settled down for the second and third frames, with Ken Pollock's single being the only event to dent his composure during that time. Lanky Andy Milne startled him more than somewhat in the fourth, however, as he leaned on an outside pitch with a gleeful gusto that carried the streaking sphere high over the left field wall. It was probably Andy's hardest distance clout of the sea- sol, and Wagner felt its impact clear down to his toes. He was Dunc McTavish, George Farate and Bill Hughes. still a bit shaky as the fifth frame go through him to the fence, No or Hers ov © Daily Reminder © OCTOBER 1950 Jo Cait; Savisigd Bonds [for He cider: Ze Hing J Devsge Gp Ieaotiage .

Then, after Herd popped up to second, Patterson came through with his second run making single that chased Pol- lock and Galbraith home. As was the case with Ray's previous drive, an outfield error let him go round to third on the hit, with Hargreaves being the culprit in this instance. That concluded the Oak scoring. Mark's Moments Meantime, Mark Pollock had been pitching a neat brand of three-hit ball, and appeared to be in a position to 'coast home be- hind his imposing six-run lead. Mark began to tire a bit in the seventh, however, and his efforts were made the more difficult when a drive through the box rat- tled off his left ankle. A single, a double, two errors and a walk netted a pair of Royal counters in that canto and, thus encour- aged, the visitors teed off for four straight singles to open the eighth. It was here that the de- fensive efforts of his mates saved Mark's hurling bacon, cutting the Royal scoring results to a single counter. It happened thusly: Double Killing Dunc Galbraith, Royal playing manager, opened with a hit to left, advancing om Cooper's smash over second on which Ken Pol- lock made a phenomenal stop but was unable to get his toss to first over in time. Galbraith and Cooper pulled a nifty double steal, and the former scored as Hargreaves belted another single to right centre. Figuring the play would be to the plate to cut off Cooper, Hargreaves rounded first and kept going, only to be trap- ped when Languay's bullet throw- in was cut down behind the mound and relayed to Herd. Carefully watching Cooper the while, the Oak infield ran down and tagged Hargreaves. Then Ken Pollock's speedy toss to the plate caught Cooper breaking for home, and £3 ANNIE'S COMING the run-down act was on again. Herd, covering behind Patterson, finally tagged the runner out to lift the pressure. Woods followed with another single, but Gal- braith tossed out Jones to retire the side. Fireman Al Gillies, who replaced Wagner when the latter gave way to a pinch hitter in: the sixth, opened the ninth with a single, and Dal- ton duplicated the feat to bring Yarnell to Pollock's rescue. "Old Folks" promptly forced Rose to pop up to Herd, but Van Horne sent one of Al's Sunday shots in- to short left to score one gunner. That did it. Bearing down hard, Al fanned Dunc Galbraith, who he first faced 13 years ago when playing with Port Credit, and forced Cooper to hoist a high one out to Languay to end the game. DUGOUT DATA--Len Evans, sportscaster for radio station CHLO, which covered the game on behalf ofra group of Strathroy merchants disclosed it was the first time in several broadcasts he had watched Royals go down to defeat. Len was high on the Oak infield after watching Gal braith nail a sizzler in the fourth and Pollock come through with his terrific play in the seventh. He rated the Oaks "by far the best young intermediate club Royals have tackled" . . . Umpire Mike Timmis (was Staring at raised eyebrows most of the afternoon. Players of both clubs seemed un- happy over many of his decisions, - although from the press Hox he hardly looked as bad as base-hit hungry hitters indicated. Coach Cliff Post was particularly annoy- ed when Mike disallowed an HBP on Kenny Pollack, claiming Ken had slyly arched his elbow into the path of an inside pitch. Ken seemed a bit irked, too, as he busily massaged his stinging arm. But as usual, the arbiter refused to budge one iota.
