When all the action was over, and indeed very soon after it started, the verdict was given to the boys from Fort Bill. Many fans commented that they locked more like the Grain Exchange than a junior ball team, and certainly sprinkling of them handled their to- bacco pouches like seasoned veterans. But whatever their age, they play a brand of ball that is away beyond : junior standards. ' i In the morning they stacked up | against the highly-esteemed local boys ! and gave them a lesson in baseball, i It wasn't a game. The visitors pulled {stuff that Jimmy Beddome and his followers never heard of. Indeeed our respected senior ball tossers have yet to show as complete a mastery of the inside stuff. In the first innings the batters went right after pitcher Hall. Bert Berrey walked, Jimmy Beddome singled, and brother Offer a | part account for the falling off in the work of the Lake Head boys in the second game, While they easily show- ed themselves the pick of the day their fancy stuff was not nearly so evident in the afternoon as n the mor- ning. However, they pulled off a 10--3 win and made themselves un- disputed champions. Probably two games in succession is a little hard on junior players. At anyrate Keewatin appeared slower in their second game. Nevertheless the red and white ribbons still bobbed on top of their bonnets. On the other hand, Dryden was much better than in the morning. The game Keewatin played against Fort William might have licked Dryden. Their second attempt wasn't so good. Milo Upton celenrated his birthday by ascending the mound for the first time this season. He was a bit nervous at first and nearly beaned catcher Shelley be- fore the latter got his mask on, but he had the stuff on the ball and turned back eight batters before they got started. Everybody was pleased with his twirling. McKillop tried to do the iron man stunt by heaving both sontests. He was good enough too, only the Dfyden infield was steppng lively while Offer and Kerney inter- followed his example. That looks good But Bert Berrey was caught off first, Jimmy died trying to swipe second and catcher L. McGuire nipped Offer That was all there was to it. Inciden tally McGuire showed what a good throwing catcher can do. He quickly destroyed the idea that a runner can take a long lead on the piteher's arm and then loaf back to the base. Any rurner who tried those tricks found a reception committee of two, a player and a ball, waiting for him. : Jimmy Beddome lobbed his simple- locking deceivers over in a way that won. the respect of the Fort William willow swingers. But he wasn't greatly aided by a last-minute shake- up in the team. Bert Berrey was an addition at first, but the other changes were not so fortunate. There is no justification in putting a player in a difficult position like third base for the first time in an important game. Third is a position that requires special practise. The shift was neither fair when he took too long a lead off first. § cepted a couple of pokes to the out- field. But the neatest player was Tom Foot at third. Tom moves with a professional style on ground hits, but he could stand a little practise on pop flies. At the bat he puts solid shoulders behind his swings and drives the ball on a line. A double and a triple in three to the pan isn't co much like lemon extract. Vern Black usually manages to get the ball over to first before the runner straddles the sack and he sticks a "mean tag on any expectant base- stealer. : ; Sweet and MsMalon were swapping positons every odd inning of the game. Both of them can handle them- selves, as can also brethren Mackie and Rochon. These four held up their end of the swatting too, Keowatin has a real team there that is worth Also the locals were worthy of the turnout that they recevied on Monday. [UMBER FOR SALE -- SPRUCE to Milo Upton or Tom Foot. Well, the rearranged team was simply out of the running, The Fort William fellows took advantage of every opportunity. They pounded the ball hard and advanced on every Dry- den misplay. At the end everybody was weary, including umpire Charlie Burgess and the faithful seribe. The sumary is, Fort Willie 19, Dryden 2. ¥ ok kX The astericks indicate a little period when the ball players adjourned to the various dining halls of 'the town. When they reassembled, CharlieBur- gess sent Keewatin up against Fort William. The Flour Mill boys weren't 2 bit seaved by what they had seen in the morning. 'They sailed right into the scrap and made Fort William ve- | cognise that they had a real ball game on their hands, An ex-Dryden boy, Cordon Clark, out in left field started business off in the Keewatin interests. Cock and Hall of the Fort both lifted long flies into his territory. Then they realized their mistake. All they had done was prove that pitcher McKillop had a veal team behind him. The aforesaid hope of the house of McKill- op throws a nice ball that starts somewhere around his kuee and fin- ishes in the neighbeurhoed of the bat- ters shoulders. He was well helped by his battery mate, McMalon. Malon showed, nerve in calling his plays. Several times with three and two on the batter, he signalled for a high ball when he figured the swat- smith would swing for a tempter. And results justified his play, Fort William had to win. They know far more about the game, but they had no such walk-away as norning. Keewatin showed judgemen in waiting out the pitcher and secured several first-class transportations to the first sack. In 'the fourth innings 2 hit by Sweet, two passes and en- other clout by Rochon sent two runs across the platter. Sweet stepped into the pitching for two nice hits, "ond handled some bad throws nicely at first base. Lots of players look good at spearing high throws. It is a pleasure to see one who can take low ones out of the dust the way Sweet picks then. ; ~The Xeewatin players evidently carried the wishes of the Dryden athletes who warned mn of the trick that were pecul to Fort Will- iam, including the Taley was making with his ; 13y in Me i in the PINE and POPLAR board, plank or geantling.

Several of the regular team could not go, and while not disparaging the boys who were taken in their places, the result of a change in the personel of the teara was not beneficial. Besides Ken- ora had managed to scrape together 5 more than ordinary football aggre- gation and the outcome was a score of 1--0 in favor of Kenora. The Dryden boys are to be congratulated on the excellent showing they made throughout the season. Better luck next time. A social evening was held last Friday at the home of Mrs J.
