ONTAIUO 1UDA.AGS21153 Roses Win Three Straight Gaines From Lindsay Nerchanis, Now Awail Whithy - Coihorne Tussie Even Lindsay's great Gordie Loucks-the player voted mast valuable to bis team in 1951 Le.keshore League campetition- was unable ta stem the powerfui tide of Bowmanville's Brookdale Rosus at the B.H.S. bail park Wednesday evening. The Ontario Champions turned in a 9-2 victory performance ta wmn easily the first in a best of five semi-final series from the Merchants. But Loucks iooked good. For three innings the Lindsay lads had the Roses bottied up at the plate and tied tightly to the bags. He allowed four hits in the first third of the game but a pep- pery infield kept tagging incam- ing runners at home plate ta keep the big O's standing in the Bow- manville uine score. But the Brooks power proved too much for Loucks in the fourth.

Get To Buttonshaw The visitors got ta Jack Button- shaw in the top of the second ta break the ice with a two run effort. Grant Green crossed the plate lirst for the Merchants. and Mark O'Donaghue followed as the team turned in a four hit act. And the figure "2" looked pretty big on the centre field score board right then. But Loucks faded fast. The Roses scored three in the fourth, twa in the fifth, one in the sixth and wound up the route with three in the seventh for a nine run win total. Loucks was relieved in the sixth by Junior West, the Orono product now with Lindsay, who took the mound cold and pitched two innings. On the Bowmanviile side of the score sheet. big Bob Williams opened up the fourth inning with a hit. Roy Falls caught a piece of pellet and a throw from third to first went high moving bath runners an extra base. Williams came home on Ted Bagnell's base-loading hit through third. Falls managed ta streak home after Maxie Yourth's high fly was snagged in ieft field for the second Bowmanville run, and Bagneil added three ta the score board when he came in on Bob Gallagher's clout. And that's the way it ended. Roses Keep Scorlng In the fifth, Tim Cox and Bob Williams added a couple mare runs, and Sonny Hooper chaiked one up in the sixth. Rases runs scored i the seventh were mark- ed up by Ted Bagneil, Maxie Yaurth and Bob Gaiiagher. Lindsay raised a ruckus in the sixth and threatened ta protest the game when newcomer Bill McTavish stepped up ta the plate for the Roses negative sox.
