PAGE lUI T CAXADIAN STAT~MAN. EOWWANVD.Lt OXqTAMO - TBTTRSDAY. ATJ'G. 7t.h. 1O~* SPORTOPIcS By Frank Mohun* Phone MA 3-7070 When you've had a three-day holiday and an overtime session facing you the next night, how does a fellow get enough ambition to write a sports column? You say don't write one! It's like this - no column - no pay, sa I guess that's out. Every- one seems interested in our prospective golf course, but we have no further news on that. It is getting on to fie time when the arena will be opened again, but it's too warm to-day to think about hockey. The ice is okay, but not the actîvity. Bowling mnust be right around the corner. I've heard several enthusiasts saying they can hardly wait. This reporter has neyer had much to say about swimming, but if you would like to spend a holiday at a nice beach, I have a suggestion. Over the weekend 1 was at Sauble Beach for the first time. Bîlled as the "Daytona Beach of Canada", it is just that. You can drive your car right onto the beach and'park for the day. The water is dlean and shallow for quite a distance out. If you are hungry don't pack sandwiches. Bring along a steak, At the Provincial Park there, a person can make use of ail the facilities, including staves, tables and drinking water. Just head north of Owen Sound - you can't miss it. Well the column's haif written now, and you readers stili dan't know anything - that is, unless you want to go to Sauble Beach. Now for the rest of my pay - I mean column, here is the playoff picture for the Bowmanville basebail teams. ]Pee Wee.- The Imperials are stili waiting, as we go ta press, for a team to play. Following a Maple Grove pratest, the second game of their series with Cobourg was thrown out. Cobourg leads the best of three set, 1-0, but Maple Grove are now playing Cobourg Training School for the right to advance in 0.B.A. playoffs. As soon as a winner is decided between Cobourg and Maple Grove, Bowmanville wili meet them for the league titie. No word has been received from the 0.B.A. Bantams- With a 2-O series lead, the Legionnaires blew a golden opportunity ta take the best-of-five event, last week. Bowman- ville blew a 7-1 lead to end up in a 7-7 standoff. The replay was here Tuesday night. A Legionnaire xin will give them the right ta advance in 0.B.A. playoffs and also enter the league finals. Midgets- The Olympias kept their unbeaten record intact last week, but not by their usual large margin. A 4-3 win gave the ]Bowmanvilie outfit a 1-0 lead in a best of three series with New- castle-Orono for the league championship. It is expected that the second game will be played this week. It has been rumoured that the team will meet the strong Ajax nine in the 0.B.A. play- offs, but no officiai word bas yet been received. Juveniles-- The Lions completed their final league play this week, league or 0.B.A. playoffs. Intermediates-. Adouble victory over the holiday weekend gave the Cowan Harvesters a 2-1 series bulge. The series, at first reported as a best-of-five affair has been cbanged to a best-of-seven set. Bowmanviiie played in Trenton iast night, with the next home game here carded for Saturday at 3:00 p.m. A series vîctory would also give the Harvesters the right ta advance in league and 0.B.A. piayoffs.

"Butch" Cale1 smashed a grand slam home run on Saturday, after the first three batters had got an base in the apening inning. Lefty "'Generai"' Jones knocked in the winning run on Mon- day and huried a fine five innings in relief. However, down one game in the best of five set, Gord Sellers was the man called on ta pull out a win and get the Cowan crew back in the,running. The fact that Gord was continuaily in trouble was flot his fault iPs his team-mates made na less than seven bobbles behind hîm. The slim right.. bander scattered eight safeties, being touched for a pair in each of the sixth and ninth frarnes. With runners continually on the base paths via the error route, Sellers bore down throughout ta set down a dozen Trenton batters an strikes. Four of the Philcos' six runs were unearned. Wiener's contrai was sharp toa, as be only issued two bases on balis and hit a batter. The Bow- manville Surplus Store Award gaes ta a pitcher for the fourth time, a weli-deserving Gord Sellers. . ~'CANADA'S FINEST AUDITORIUM" THE PETERBOROUGH MEMORIAL C'ENTRE (H. E.

Two* Weekend Wins Give Harvesters Lead Over Tren ton After dropping the series opener in Trenton, the Bowman- ville Harvesters took a ane game iead on the strcngth of a double wixi et home, on the holiday weekend.

The Harvesters made it 5-O in the second when Sellers singled, moved up when the leftfielder erred on the bail, and scored when the second baseman bobbled Kelly's drive. Kaulback's first of three dou- bles in the fourth, coupled with a Bowmanville boa! gave the visitors their firs! marker in the fourth. Copeiand's fifth frame sacrifice fly got that run back, as Kelly scored after he bad singled and stole. The Philcas cut the Cowan crew's lead ta 6-3 in the sixth an a double, single and two con- secutive inficld errors.

Trenton's Kaulback was jus! as stingy, holding the Cowan nine scorelcss from the fourth frame. While the Bowmanvillc mound duo werc holding the visitors ta four safeties, the locals were banging out 10 safeties off Kauiback's slants. Mason set the pace with three bits, inciud- ing a triple, and big John Fard added a single and a double. Kelly poked a leadoff double and scored the firs! run of thg game on Ford's single.

The champions, however, added another game ta their unbeaten string as they came from behind ta tic run- ner-up Zion 1-1. The only other tcam given much of a chance agains! the leaders, besides Zion, is much improved, fast- rnoving Courtice who fashion- ed a lop-sided 6-0 win aver the gem merchants from Bowman- ville. The win assured the third place Courtice footballers of a playoff position. On Saturday* night, Tyrone beat off the Enniskillen threat ta the fourth and final playof f position with a convincing 4-0 victor.y. Hampton and Solina played ta a scoreless draw which broke a pair of existing ties for points. Hampton moved into fifth spt-three points back of Tyrone with threc games remaining. Sauina moved out of a cellar deadlock with Baw- manville, and by virtue of the single point still holds a chance ta tie Tyrane for the las! play- off spot, if they win all three remaining contests, while Ty- rone loses its three starts. The Haopcr's Jewellers of Bowman- ville, the league's new entry this season are now out of the playoff picture. In the Junior division, Cour- tice picked up the game they had in hand over Zion, ta re- gain the lead on a 3-0 shutout over las! place Enniskillen, Sa- lina defeated Tyrone by a'3-0 couint, and Maple Grave down- ed Hampton 4-2.
