OTTAWA SENATORS DEFEATED HERE 205 IN STRANGE HOLIDAY EXHIBITION TILT Bennett and Nickle Made Good With Senior Company-- Home Runs Common--Batstone Starts Walloping --Battle Ended With a Flourish. It was a strange exhibition match to Purvis added at the Fair Grounds yesterday in which the Kingston senior team de feated Ottawa Senators 20-5.

Bennett held control of the visi-| tors from the first but a couple of passes, two errors and a long clout by Smith got the jump on him. In the first three innings he allowed! four hits compared very favorably with the twenty-one hits registered | oft St. Pierre and in the seventh, with three men on, he tightened up and retired the side, striking the last man out clearly and cleanly.

In some respects he was a bigger hero than Bobby Jones, the amateur two had tied at the end of 72 holes.

The Circle-Six club has two vic- tories tucked away since the begin- ning of the week and has yet to be defeated this year. On June third, playing an exhibition game at the cricket field in the morning, they triumphed over the Hussars, of the senior séction with the large score of 9-5. The juniors were on their toes throughout the game and when the | seniors started in to take things easy est. the Circle-Six and held the soldiers to nine hits, while Lawless was nick- ed for the same number by the youngsters, It was Lawless' first ap- pearance in the box this season and he seems to be going well. He did good work and was on the job at the bat besides, The game Wires and Hussars but it was de- cided to have the Live Wires resting for a day or so to give them a chance to bolster up before meeting their local opponents again. It was a nice game to watch and the team work of the Circle-Six out- did not use a regular lineup but took the opportunity of working out dif- ferent men. The only trouble with the game was that, out of a crowd of 350 there was not filte®n dollars in the collec- tion. The collectors found the same indifference everywhere. Those with- out any too much of this world's goods donated liberally while great' sportsmen who. could well afford a small donation looked the | other way when the city league men {came around.

Lee can go to his right or left with equal ease and grace, carries a good arm and gets the ball away quickly. Not only in the field, but also at the bat does Lee resemble Bush. He is a left-handed hitter, chops at the ball rather than swings, and doesn't get much power in his stroke. His best bet is just dropping the ball over the infield, Eastern critics are satisfied as to ---- Lee's fielding ability but in doubt as to his hitting. He batted well over .300 in the Western League last sea- son, "I'm not worried about Lee's hit- ting," confides Manager Lee Kohl. "If he only reaches the .250 mark he will be one of the most valuable shortstops in the American League. Add to his batting average the hits he kills by sensational flelding and he will be around the .400 mark."
