ENS A 7 "DEFEAT PETERBORO _ But the Peterboro Bantams Just Walked Away From the Ottawa Bantams. The Ottawa Midgets defeated the Peterboro Midgets by a score of 6-3, in. a sudden death, semi-final game, the first of a double header at the Fair Grounds Monday - afternoon. Very good ball was served up by the boys, with Ottawa having the edge on the Petes. The star of the game was Ottawa's young pitcher, Galar- nleu. strikeouts to his credit and allowed but ten hits, a fine record. His pitching was steady and he received splendid support. When Peterboro came to bat in the eighth inning with the score 6-1 against them, it look- ed as if they were going to make a rally. The first man struck out but the next four contributed a nice single each, two men scoring. Ga- larnieu came to the front again and struck out the next two batters. This was the only time Ottawa were In danger. The teams were: Ottawa--Lynch, cf; Bennoff, If; Galarnieu, p; Hammell, rf; Dowd, ss; Gardiner, 3b; Ralph, 2b; Purdy, 1b; Macli, ec.

The game was a one-sided affair and was merely a batting practice for the Petes. They collect- ed 23 hits, one being for a homer and three of them triples. Ottawa were very weak in the pitching line, and coupled with this, the twirlers were given ragged support. On the other hand, Crary twirled fine ball for the Petes and was given air-tight support. The Peterboro batters were too heavy for Ottawa and the young- sters did not have a chance. The teams were: Peterboro--Morey, 2b; Crary, p; McDonald, 1b; Dormer, 3b; Hol- land, ss; Cuffe, If; Howden, cf; Starr, ¢; Cuthbertson, rf. !

BASEBALL Simplified by Billy Evans ..51 "vee Explain why a batter is out if a fielder juggles a ball but finally re- tains possession of it and a baserun- ner is not out on a touch play in which the ball is juggled? Up: until the fall of 1919, when the rules were given a general re- vision, the ruling on the two plays; the juggling of a fly ball and the juggling of the ball after a touch play were the same, the batsman was out. At that time the experts revising the playing code decided that on a touch play the ball must be securely held, not juggled, to complete the out. Thus, if a runner sliding into sec- ond is touched with the ball while still three feet from the base, only to have the fielder juggle the ball after the touch, the runner is not out if he can reach the base while the ball is still in the air. It matters not if the fielder finally retains possession of the ball on a touch play. The moment he juggles the ball after the touch, it renders the same vold. Iu order to retire the runner it is necessary that he again secure a firm hold on the ball and once more touch the runner before he reaches his objective. If a runner after being touched, and the ball is juggled, the play is rendered void and he can be declar- ed safe by reaching the base before the fielder again touches him with the ball. While it is apparent the rules dis- criminate between two plays, that on the surface seem much the same, - the juggling of a ball that is finally retained before touching the ground, there is perhaps some merit to the attitude taken on a touch play, mak- ing it necessary to firmly hold the ball to complete the out. COBB'S RECORD. Cobb, in 20 years as a leaguer, made 3,666 base hi FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOKING: IN ~The Belleville Ontario says that Latchford had it all over Tetro be- hind the bat.

Tetro is claimed to be one of the best "The Falr Grounds should be a merry old place when Peterboro and Kingston clash to-morrow evening. "Shiner" Johnston's crew are _de- termined to trim Kingston on their own grounds to-morrow evening, and, although Kingston fans think they have not much of a chance, one never can tell. It is likely that Heckman, the pride of Peterboro, will be on the mound, and the Kingston fans will like nothing beter than to have the blonde boy opposing them. Many think "Teddy" Gallagher will do duty ont he mound for Kingston, and it will seem like old times to have these two opposing each other in Kingston. be a lively battle. Kingston's best wishes went with the Circle-Six to-day. At any rate, it is bound to Although the majority do not think they have much of a chance in Belleville, they may spring a surprise, despite Belleville's much-heralded pitcher, Gerow. Ap- parently St. Ddnnis was not conceded to be much of a twirler before last Friday's game, but he is receiving all kinds of praise row. he deserves it, as he twirled good ball and held the hard-hitting down well.

Stribling Wins Another. Phoenix, Ariz, Aug. 25.--Young Stribling, 'Georgia schoolboy, won a technical knockout over Jack Lynch, Prescott, Ariz., light-heavyweight, in the ninth round of a scheduled ten- round bout here Saturday night.

By Chester Horton Maker of 51 Golf Chamffions. "Golf's most successful teacher," says "Chick" Evans. i | [ It is a fect that the average golfer invariably swings the club back farther than he really intends to-- always. That is, if he wants to take what to him means a full swing he will invariably take a swing and a half. For what he calls a three- quarter swing he will invariably take a full swing. I have seen hundreds of golfers do this continually. Know- ing this to be true, I know that play- ers can aid themselves greatly by de- termining henceforth always to swing just a little short of what they intend to swing. Make it your rule --and a fixed rule--to always be just short of the swing you intend to take back. No damage to your game can possibly result from this. The op- posite is more likely to be your good fortune. gpr""n"»--™nrntve Galt Boy Wins. Finishing with a fine burst of speed, Cliff Bricker, Galt's sturdy young runner and present holder of the Ontario five and ten mile cham- pionships, captured the twelve mile modified marathon held under the auspices of the Lakeview Marathon Association on Saturday from a fleld of twenty runners, beating the re- cord for the course by almost four minutes, his time being 1 hour 10 minutes 30 seconds. Assuming the lead at the four carried the next five ru rs in un- der the old mark. About behind Bricker came Reynolds, also from Galt, while C. Snell, of the Gladstone A.C., and C.
