TORONTO The Kingston senior team was de- feated by the Toronto Oslers in the Second play-off game between these two teams, at the Fair Grounds yes- terday afternoon by the score of 12- 3, the Oslers going on into. the next round of the senior playoffs by vir. tue of yesterday's, their second vic- tory over the Kingston team, having won in Toronto last Saturday by the score of 3-2. Congratulations are due the Oslers. The better team Won on the day's play yesterday and the visitors at nearly all times were the masters of the local crew. How: ever, the star of the game of either team was not among them. Delmar Cherry claimed that honor by the wonderful performance he turned in for the day and he showed himself to be head and shoulders over ahy player on the fleld, Next came Breen of the Oslers and Dodds of the Oslers. The defeat of the Kingston team "was caused by errors, by hits of the Oslers, which were clean cut and sure but most of all by an absolyte lack of fighting spirit. There was RO more pep or ginger to the locals & beaten team would display 8nd there did not seem to be the © Same old fight in any degree. Bruce . Cairns, pitching urder a handicap, , Was not the Bruce Cairns that King- ston fans knew all summer. He was Bo mystery to the visitors in any Sense. He did not have the crooks . or breaks to his delivery that he has displayed agalust other teams this summer, he failed to strike out any Toronto batters and he was hit hard 'by the heavy-swinging Oslers. The 'team behind him made fatal mist takes as well and it truly was a qif- ferent locking Kingston team. Del mer Cherry was the bright spot on the Kingston team. In fact he was the bright spot of the game. "Del 'mar Jawn" took nine putouts unto himself, seven of which were diffi- It. He made a desperate effort to get another after a long run, this king him in Herble Teepell's ter- a in right field, but the ball got from Bim. Outside of that 's ance was perfect. He handled himselt remarkably in tield and in batting in four times he made three lovely hits, his being for three bases, the best and cleanest hit that been made in the Kingston Fair ot team A blared with heart and brilliance of the Kivgston centre-fielder, thers would ave A different story to go i thé books to-day. However, done with and that over and ee. OSLERS ELIMINATED rs -- Ki Fight--Toronto Oslers Worthy ------ a ' ed Cherry at tifst Contenders. Bruce did not have his wsnal "on" day and he was suffering from a back injury as well.' It was indeed too bad that Cairns was not in his usual form. If he had been, it is hard to say what the final result Would have been. For a pitcher of his calibre to go through a whole game without a single strikeout, is indeed most unusual. However, the folly of not having enough pitchers on a team like that was certainly | shown 'up yesterday and if there is One Teason more than another for the termination of the Season as it stands, much it lies in the fact that there was no one to help Cairns. There was but one pitcher, allowed matters to 'rest as they were. However, pPost-mortems at the best do not generally glow with Sportsmanship and therefore mo post-mortems will be gone into here. The series with the Oslers is over, the better team on the play won and | Kingston fans and players should | congratulate their victors on what | théy have accomplished. The ston team has done well. They are not disgraced and the best that can be said now is, "better luck next time." THE PLAY. First Inning. Oslers--Fileming singled.

Defeated by Peterboro Royals ~ In Second Meeting Yes- * terday by 16-1. (Special to {The Daily British Whig.) Peterboro, Sept. 23. ~~ The Royals, Peterboro's last O0.B.AA. hopes tied up the Midget semi-final Sories : with the Kingston Dark Horses here yesterday afternoon by wallopiag the Basterners 16 to 1, necessitating a third game to see which team will go into the finals against Merriton. The speed ball pitching of BIN Cripps for ' the Royals had Kingston stopped com- pletely. Cripps allowed only one hit, a single by Quigley in the seventh, and , altogether pitched to only twenty-nine batters, but four King- ton players reaching first base. He wonld have had an easy shoutout had it not been for his own wild throw in the first inning which put Wood in position to score the only Kingston 'tally of+*the game. Patterson, who started in the box for Kingston, did not do badly but Was yanked after the Royals had tied the score in the third. Mathe- son went to the firing line bat his control. was terrible. In the fourth he walked five men and slipped in .a couple of wild Pitches giving Peterboro iwo runs and in the next frame he was worse, five bases on balls and two timely hits, sending seven more counters over the plate. McKee finished the game and after being hit hard for six runs in the sixth, blanked the winners for the rest of the battle. Peterboro's last run of game was scored on a mammoth wallop by Hatton, the Royals' catcher, who hammered one of McKee's offerings for a home run. The Kingston team started off well. Wood walked and was sacri- ficed to "second by Robinson. He went to third on Cripp's wide throw to second and scored 'on Quigley's sacrifice fly to centre. McKee fan- ned to end the inning and not an. other Kingston player reached first until Quigley singled with one out in the seventh. He was shot down at second a moment after when he tried to stedl.
