TECANADIAN 1STATESMAN. B3OWMANVILLE, THURSDAY. JULY Mh.1931 JIN THE REALM 0F SPORTI FRONT STREET RETAINS LEAGUE LEADERSHIP 1,sily De! eats Public School ln Postponed Game on Monday Front Street retained a good lead la the sol tball league when they easily defeated Public School stud- ents in the first of a double headen Monday night. High School losing to Goodyear in the next game made thein chances of winning the sched- ule even better. It was flot a game that anyone careci very much about seeing and most of the fans were glad it only lasteci seven innings. Dave Osborne was faced with the necessity of play- ing about five new men on bis teamn, the rest of bis own team apparently showing poor sportsmanship, not caring to play wben they have no chance at league honors. Frank Bottnell sunprised everyone when he called Smith's attention to the fact that the rule book provides that the latter could not make use of resin on the bail. It was about the flnst time the fans knew such a rule ex- istéd. However, penhaps it was for the best for Smith turned right around and struck out thirteen men la the garne. It seems funny that it took fourteen games for the sof t- bail experts ta flnd out about this technical erron. The final score was 15 to 2 and a four and a seven run innings pro- vided most o! the fun with the Front Street. Public School with thei mnixed up teamn were not able to do much. Dave Osborne pitched fairly well but had litte support behind him. Then be fools a little too mucb ta m rake the game interesting from a Pitching standpoint. Stew Cand- ler scored a borner in the fourth farme on a long drive to the fence that went rigbt past Sheehan. Cul- ley also scored a nice borner away out to right fleld in the second inn- ings. That was about aIl there was ta the garne. The tcamns were: Front Street - Smith, p. Hoop- er. c; Jamnieson, lb: Cole, 2b, Hall, 3b; Bates, ss; Candler, rf; Adams, cf, Cuiley, if.

The game on Monday was clos enougb, too. Had the f ull nine inn ings been played the Higb Schoc would probably have beaten then for the second tinie. Goodyear wa not making any better attcmpts a getting on bases than were the stu dents, and the latter got on thirg base more times than did the rub ber men. A f our-run lead in thi finst innings and rctained almos throughout the game gave Goodyea: the victory. Ormiston was pitching bis fins garne for Goodyear but he was nc impressive. He pitches a nice bal] well over the plate but apparenti not bard ta bit. Ace Richards fai the scholars pitched another goo. game and stnuck out balf a dazer men. Ormiston struck out one. Tht game lasted a little more than ha]i an hour and there was really no- thing spectacular althougb it wa interesting. Adams was the oui: man ta score a home run and thai in the second frame.

First be surprises ýs the town by wnaning the badminton ýy championship, and then be shows Lrernar.able skill on the tennis courts, and lastly he leads bis teamn o! su! tball enthusiasts, masquerad- mng unden the name o! Business Men, ta victany over the league lead- ers, 111gb School, in a pre-holiday game on Tuesday, June 30th. It rnust have been a sad one for Man- ager Frank Williams a! ter golag al -th way ont to Camp Tuacis at Scu- gag Lake ta brng a number o! bis stalwarts in ta play. It was flot as - though Goosey had a f ul team . eÉther for he had to make up a team f rom what was available. Tweedle, Brough, Luxton and Little wene al playing and none are regulan men. However it was not so mucb the team that won the game by a score o! 8 ta 3 as it was the badminton champion bimself. His steilar pitcb- ing, five stnike-outs la a row, the bagblight, was what won the game and put the students ta mont. Frank Williams and bis gang bave a good excuse anyway, by. saying that the scholans were not at their best after slugging away at math- ernatical conundrurns for the bigger part o! the month previous. Most o! thern apparently wene trying ta flnd a Greek word for softball or a French word ta describe a strike-ont, so rnuch were their rninds affected by the necent battle a! the bramas. Except f or Osborne's pitcbing the game started out with four stnaight innings witbont a score. Tweedle came haone in the third wben two men were down, and a borner by Os- banne birnself alsa brougbt Cniley safeiy home, giving the Business Men a tbree-run lead wbich was only matcheel by the High Scbool by the time tbey reached the final stage o! the garne. Bagneli, Rich- ards, Adams, Hackney and Harold Calmer went in and out ta bat la succession for stike-onts in the second and third frarnes. In tbe sixtb innings Herb. Calmer gat a walk and campleted tbe circuit for the scholars' first run' Ris brother added the second in the elgbtb, while Adams came borne in the last when two men were down. Tue Business Men meanwhile braught thein score up ta 8 with Cul- ley coming borne la the 5th, Rus. Brown in the 6tb, and Tweedle, Rus. Brown and Jack Brougb in the 8th. Ace Richards was not himself dur- ing this game and be falled ta pitch acnoss the plate as of!ten as is bis wont. Maybe we can hazard a guess that bis pltching arrn bas been aven- wonked a littie pltcbing bay very necently. Ris record showed anly one stike-ont and two walks, wbile Osborne showed up wtb ten stnike- auts and five walks. The teams: Business Men - Osborne.

CLOUDS Molly Bevaiý The Blue Bell Poetess Deep in the meadow grass I lie, Face upturned to the summer sky, Watching the great cloud animais go, Lazily, clumsily, to and fro;, Or the chiselling wind, for pure de- light, Fashioning castles of marbie white, Haunting faces. and angel wings, Unbelievable, transient thirigs; Changing to windy wisps of lace Veiing the evening's lovely face. This when sunlight ruies the day; But I climb a bill when the skies are gray, To see the cloude like old ails flap.. ping, Wiid and ragged and overlapping; Eager, wind-worried clouds of queut, Hasten ing on to the distant west, Storm-staunch shipe on a misty. main Cargoed with shirnmering strands of ramn.
