The cantest goeu at the Rotary Park, as the locals wlll be out ta even the set at a game apicce. Midland took the opener on Sunday, ln Midland. , as the Merchants, who bad been piaying sound bail, came up with a few errors at the wrong tîme. While the score might sound bad, and at the same time, this reporter Isn't attemptiag necessarily ta make excuses, the club dld have a few problems. Ta begin with, ace tire-baller Ralph Kennedy became a poppa in the early hours of Sunday morning, and dldn't make the trip to Midiand. Gary Akey, who took aver the mound- duties, wasn't feeling up to par, and maybe a littie thing like tan support had something to do with it as well. There wcre some 500 ta 600 fans on hand ta cheer the Midland cý,ew ta victory, and we understand that at least Itwo or three bus-loads will be on their way down for Sunday's second tilt. It will be a sad day for sparts in Bowmaaville, If there are mare visiting than local fans in attendance, particulariy whcn you consider how easy it Is for local enthusiasts toP reach the bail park. Don't farget too - that the excti% and players have donc an excellent job of rciuvenating intermediate basebal l i Bowmanville - and the club is playing for the Ontario championship. The sports editor has anly seen one game - and Il was a dandy. We intended on going back but overtîme and vaca- tions stymied aur plans. Pcrhaps other people have been in the same boat as us. But we are certaialy going ta be In attendance for Sunday's game - how about you ? This corner thinks that Bowmaaviile bas every chance af squaring the serles and going ail the way. It's a good bal tcam, but given the support they deserve could make them even better. t f t t i. IN ONTARIO FINALS Although not playing for the Merchants, another Dow- manville baseballer finds himself ini the Ontario Finals as well. Guy Parks, playing for Oshawa Legionnaires, will be 1la action as Oshawa meets London for the provincial Junior "A" championship. The Legionnaires downcd Welland 6-4 and 6-2 on the weekend ta capture the best of threc semni-finals. No dates have yet been announced for the final series. t t t. t. t TAYLOR WINS TENNIS CROWN Goodyear plant manager Jack Taylor partnered Ray Petrie who won their third consecutive men's doubles champ- lonship at the Oshawa Tennis Club, Sunday aftcrnoon. But "Master Jack", as he is affectionately known by bis workers had a tough time, as Ron Guiltinan and Sid Dods. worth put up quite a battie before bowing out. The match was one of the best In many years at the Oshawa courts, taking over three hours ta play. After the dcfending champs had dropped the first set 6-2, they came back to win 6-3. Then In the third set they were down 0-5, only four points away trom losing. But in a great raliy, Jackc and Ray came back ta wln 7-5. You would think that wou'ld be enough ta finish Guilti- nan and Dodsworth, but they regained their torm ta earnaa 7-5 victory, deadlocking the match. Taylor and PetrIe won the fifth and decidlng tussle 6-2. These guys are pretty fair players - but this scribe would be willilng ta play anyone in a game of singles - and we would only use anc hand as well, M49--4.-
