WHIZ SPRINGS SURPRISE BEATING FRONT STREET Factory Boys Corne From Behind te, Win Easily From Front Street The Whiz Shining Stars sprung a surprise in the softball sehedule on Monday night when after being six runs behind in the first innings they came out ahead ta win f rom Front Street by a score of 12 to 7. Smith who was pitching for the Merchants Princes started off with a bang striking out two men in the first frame, but he lagged badly after that and let the grease manufactur- ers slip into the lead in the fi! th inn- ings and remain ahead right ta the end. Whiz led the batting and were un-j able ta make a break while Front Street sent six men right around the diamond during their first frame. Those six runs were nearly their last for they added only one more, and that in the fifth, to the end of the game. Whiz were slow ta get away. but in the third they showed signs of blossoming forth by scoring four. adding one more in the 4th and passlng the Main Street lads in the fifth with three more. The next three innings were f ruitless for bath sides, but Whiz leading by one in the last frame pulled away ta an easy victory by adding four more. An idea of the scrappy pitching is seen by these statisties: Smith, 5 strike-outs and 5 walks: Seymour. 5 walks and 2 strike-outs. Candler1 made a nice borner in the lst ininings which he well deserved, and Sey-î maur made on for the Whiz in thet 5th. The teams were:i Whiz - Seymour, p; Cowle. c; <'arden, lb; Witheridge, 2b; I.

PUBLIÉ SCHOOL DEFEATS BUSINESS MEN FRIDAY Dave Osborne, Students' Battery, Is Star in Hlectie Gaine It was one awf ul night at the Public School grounds on Friday, at least for the Business Men's repre- sentatives in the Saftball league. for by a score of il ta 10 the Public School boys aided and abetted by a few eIders .iust put it over their op- ponents like a glove. Out of the three games played ta that date it was by f ar the mast interesting. Public School students turned out in scores ta cheer their representatives on ta victory and whether this had anything to, do witho*the result is hard tai tel., but when the end was in sight and the schoolboys looked very rnuch like losing, their fans just kept up a continual din which might have raised the roof had there been one on the playing field. Dave Osborne, the elongated twirl- er, was the herao!o the evening. He started right in to pitch some re- markable balîs for a young fellow and he kept the counter-hoppers stepping f rom start ta finish, espec- ially finish. Allin Osbarne being gaod natured and the champion badmintan player of Bowmanville, daes not mind a lit- tle kidding and he sure got it that night. It is useless ta pile on the agony. but ta be brief he was struck out foui times by the redoubtable Osborne and the boys sure took ad- vantage of this ta kid him along. The big question was, what was the cause of "Goosey's" bad breaks? The concensus of opinion seemed ta be that he was wearing a pair of the ultra fashionable sailar pants and would have f elt mucli mare at home singing 'Yeave Ha' at the end of a rope than playing saftball that even- ing. But aIl kidding aside and ta get back ta the game. The Business Men made an auspicious start by scoring two runs in the first innings and another in the second. while it took the students until the fourth innings ta get on their f eet and equalize the score. The excitement came at the end af the ninth when the students scaring two brouglit the score even once again. An extra inn- ings was required and the Business Men piled on three presenting what Iooked ta be an insurmnountable bar- rier for the schaol boys ta clear. But that is just svhat happened. They did clear it and cleared it by one run with only two men dawn and then the umpire decided that it should not be piled an too hard and cailed the garne. Caverly was the boy wha made the last znighty hit that spelled victary for the school boys. Herbie Joint, pitching for the Business Men, made a goad shawing and will probably become a gaod pitcher before the season is out. In fact. it looked like the opening of one o! the best seasans a! softball for same years f rom every point of view, from interest, fram teains and from the crowds that have attended each game.

A fair sized crowd turned out to see the gm and they were well rewardedbye- ing some smart football despite the earliness of the season. The game started out fast and cIean and it was, only a short time before Bowman- ville registered their first caunter, Benny King doing the scoring. Harris of Orono however evened the1 score in a very short turne and the ý two teams sparred for the lead for, the rest of the first hall. The second haîf saw a renewal of fast play which however gradually faded towards the end when the' strain of the seasons first game be- gan to tell on the piaycrs. Hockett scored for Bowmanvile in a nict' long drive f rom the goal area, but ýOroina again carne back ini a short turne and tied the score.
