A momentary lapse by a usually solid infield allowed Osh- awa te score their twd runs in the nintb. Roses, bowever, were victims of doubtful officiating on several key plays. For example, the'plate umpire called Ted Bag- nell's terrific drive over the right field wall a foul bah. The base tumpire behind first base, who was the league's umpire-in-cbief. thought it was a fair bail, but could net over-rule the plate um- pire. With a little more luck on the umpire's decisions, Roses would bave wrapped uD the garne. Gord Sturrock pitched shut-out bail for five innings, but Ai Os- borne calied in reliefer Bun Le- ýgree in the sixtb before Gord got inte serious trouble.

Juveniles Top Oshawa Victors In Tense Battie A tense meund st ~ggle between Falls of Bewmanvlile and Keller cf -Oshawa Victors ended in a 2-1 triumph fer the Bowmanville and Keller of Osbawa Victors end- ed in a 2-1 triumph for the Bow- manville Club. A small but en- thusiastic crowd watched the Tbursday twiight game. Falls showed alrnost complete rnastery ever the visiters, strikine out at least two batters in every, inning 'but tbe third, when an errer and a single gave Oshawa their lene tally. Six Oshawa bats- men got on base, but of the four who reacbed third, three were left stranded when Falls turned on the heat te retire the side. Only twe singles were coilected by Vic- tors. Keller was close bebind Falls, with eight strikeouts. He sur- rendered four bits. Rice led the local bitters witb two singles. Meercraft hit the only extra-hase cleut, a line double te the left field fence. Falls' single set up the winning run in the fourth inning. Eýest defensive play of the garne was Jeffries' running ene-hand catch in left field, which put the damper on Oshawa's third inning rally.

Loaai uveniles In Perfect Shape For Comning Season The complete contrast te the C.O.F. Softball League is the Ju- venule Basebaîl group. Whereas the C.O.F.ers bit everything that cornes to tbem, the Juveniles count it an achievement ta bunch two bits in a single inning. The Bow- manville Juveniles have won both of their initial games, the f irst by a score of 2-1 and the second 6-5. In the first game they managed only four bits, and in the sec- ond, one. How could tbey push six runs across the plate with one run, you ask? The Juvenile pitcher very often defeats bis own efforts by walking haîf a dozen at a time. This was the reason for Bowman- vilie's six runs. Juvenile players on the average are too small for the beavy bats wielded by the Junior and Senior groups. They are just beginning te show good form in the infield, and their pitching is bitting the mark. But tbey are too small for the weighty bats of the larger clubs. Opposite te the usual trend In basehaîl, the batters start the sea- son behind the eight-bail, and warm up during the schedule. In triple-A or major league bal the pitchers are bounced around at the start and don't begin ex- erting their mastery until nearly one-third of the schedule bas been played. The Bowmanvîlle Juvenile bave an 'excellent fielding club this year. For the size of themn they c an rifle a good shot from any spot in the infield. There bas been tee little hitting te the eut- fieid te indicate the fly-snagging prowess of tbe outer garden men. For those of you who like te watch prornising young players corne along, drop down te the High School grounds some eveeÇ- ing when the Juveniles are show- ing their stuff.

Softbctll Team Lead With Three Victories Bowmanviile men's C.O.F. soft- bail team are rolling in high gear having piayed three games and are. stili undefeated. In the league opener tbey defeated Pick- ering by an overwbelming score of 26-8. Playing the openinLr game at borne Tbursday against oeaof tha teughest tearns in the league the Bowrnanviiie boys slammed eut 20 bits and scored 19 runs as they defeated Coulters 19-16 in a slug- fest. Bowmanville piled .up a cornmanding 19-8 lead in seven innings but weakened badly in the 8th and 9th to allow Couiters te score ne less than 8 runs. For Bowmanvilla H. Snewden pitched steady bail for seven in- nings but bis arm weakened in the 8th and more se in the, Pth and the veteran "Biackie" Black- burn had te ceme in the 9th with 2 out and put eut the fira. It tek "Blackie" ony one pitch te retire the side as Sebrash popped te Snowden at first. B. Snowden sparked the bornesters with bis fine display behind the bat. Tirne and tirne again Snowden pulied down higb pitcbes te hold base runners on base. Jim Levitt at third played bis best game of the early season as ha handled six bouncers wîtbout a miscue. The infield of J. Lev.itt, E. Finney, J. Stacey and F. Blackburn showed lots of lîfe and chatter and play- ed steady bail. Jack Kitson continued bis ter- rific hitting clip as he smashed eut a borne run in the third inning with the bases loaded. Johnny Stacey aise bit a Erand slam born- er and E. King bit a 4-bagger with one rnan on base. Stacey was leading bitter on both tearns with the aforernentioned borner, a triple, 2 singles 'and 2 walks in 7 trips te the plate. The lucky draw for the suit or $50 cash was made between in- ,nings and the lucky ticket was field by Tom Palrner, Bowrnan- ville. At Storey Park. Oshawa, on Monday, against Severs Plumb- ing, Bowrnanville Foresters blast- ed McGee eut of the box in the very first inning with seven bits wh icb were good for 8 runs. From then on it was a different story as Reg Walsh came in to pitch good bail for the remainder of the game. Walsh aliowed pnly 3 hits but gave Up 9 walks in the 8 in- nings. Appàrently tbe beys did ail the hitting in the first 4 inn- ings as Bowmanvilie lead 13-7. Frorn the 4th on it was a pitchers' duel with Stacey of Bowmanviile rnatching pitch fer pitch with Weish as they proceeded te rnow down the hitters in rapid succes- sien. Bowmanvilie outhit Sevejs 10-8 and garnered 10 walks coWi- pared with the two Stacey gave up. George Brown played an effec-, tive game at first having 5,.un- assisted putouts and 8 onrf other puteuts. The. whole iîfrfield of Levitt, Finney. -Snowden and Brown was alr-tight. Inclications me-thfÇ the scores will st!te get srnaller. In ail three games Bewmanviile bave sbewed tre- mendous power at the plate and have grabbed a cemmanding lead wbich bas caused them te ease Up sornewhat and that accounts for the opposition scoring as many runs as they'bave. In tbree games Bowmanville have scored 59 runs but with the pitching improving this cannot keep up. The local boys bave one of the beaviest bitting teams seen in Bowrnan- ville for sorne time. On Wednes- day night at home tbey will try te make it four in a row, aise against Severs Plurnbing.
