The Hockey Club have got to win in order to have a chance at the 'title and the Factory have no intentions of throwing away any chances. It may prove to be the last game, or another may be necessary, but in any event it will be well worth seeing. V The box score of Tuesday’s game: Hockey Club Aljoe and C. McGirr had the pitching assignment and there was. very little to choose between them. Both had two strike-outs and both issued two walks. Ern. McDonald was behind the bat for the Hockey Club in the place of Bill Wilson, who is recovering from his ac: cident of last week, and handled the position in fine style. “Ab.” Kress, shortstOp for the Factory was the only player to get two hits, and he ham- mered out a single and a double in four trips to the plate. In the meantime the Factory were bearing down and holding the Puck- chasers to their two runs until the first of the eighth, when with two out, they broke loose, and three hits (two singles and a triple) helped along with three errors, were made good for four runs, and brought them within striking dis- tance of victory. Unable to add to their score in the last of the eighth the Furniture boys tightened down in the first of the ninth, cut off the first runner at third, and then with two on the bags and the fourth man up, pull- ed a double play, centre-field to second base, to retire the side. “Your time’s up 1100, Study.” Both teams started on playing air- tight ball, but right from the start the Factory had a slight edge. In the first two innings they gathered in four runs, and held their Opponents scoreless un- til the fourth, when the Hockey boys, taking advantage of an error by Mc- Clyment and coming through with a single and a three-base hit, were able to put two runners over the plate. The Factory got another in the fifth, how- ever, when Dean’s long hlt to deep centre got away from McGirr, and “Hiram” made the circuit before the ball could be relayed in. The Factory scored again in the sixth and seventh, the first one when Kress put a double out over second, and scored on the next two put-outs, and the last one when Dean again smashed a three-bagger out in right-field, and scored when Lauder let the throw-in go into the crowd. The Furniture Co. nine is one game to the good in the final series. On Tuesday evening they defeated the Hockey Club nine in a tightly contested game by a one run margin, and now have a two to one chance of winning the championship.

As an aftermath of last week’s sud- den death game between the Bachelors and the Furniture Co., the local execu- tive met last Friday evening to hear the protest entered by the Bachelors against the use of a Hockey Club play- er as base umpire.

The program of instrumental numbers, solos, comedy sketches, etc., was well received by the crowd present and thoroughly enjoyed. Deserving of special mention, perhaps, were the violin solos of Miss Dorothy McQuinn and the work of her sister, Miss Kathleen, on the xy10phone. Fol- lowing the concert the company pro- vided music for a dance in the hall, which was well attended, almost too well attended, in fact, as the floor was; almost too crowded to permit much dancing. At different times during the after- noon the Durham band and two High- land pipers, D. Robertson of near town, and M. McCormick, of Priceville, provided excellent music, which added much to the enjoyment of the day. Total Expenses The lacrosse match was somewhat late in starting and as a result a large portion of the crowd missed a real struggle. The Camp Borden boys won by a 4-3 score but they knew they had been in a lacrosse game before the final whistle blew. The local boys gave them a stifl argument before they bowed to defeat, but lack of condition and a lack of combination play showed that they had not played much since the games last fall, and this, against a team that has been playing regularly mde the final outcome almost inevitable. The game was divided into four fifteen- minute periods and the score was 2-0 for Camp Borden at the end of the first, 3-1 at half time, 4-2 at the end of the third and 4â€"3 at full time. Balance the prize money between them. Pat Malone, Holland Centre and Jack Tee- ter, Durham, were the artists, treating the crowd to some real “old-time fid- 8. Bell, 3b.; F. Ritchie, rf.

Most of the farmers are busy har- vesting this week. Mr. 0. D. Peart, with his threshing outfit, threshed fall wheat for Mr. Jas. Peart and Mr. Wm. Paylor. Miss Clara Jack returned home Mon- day after. spending a week with the Nelson family in Puslinch township. Mr. and .Mrs. J. C. Cook and Miss Jean Allen visited early in the week with Mr. and Mrs. W. J. McFadden of Orange Valley. Miss Edith Bryans of Vamey. is spending this week with Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Bryans. Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Currer, of To- ronto, spent the week-end with the Peart and Hastie famflies. These people, to whom a front rank position seems all-important, should get to the games earlier and secure a place behind the fence. But no, they stroll up after play has been in progress for a few innings, and in their mania for a front rank place, where they don‘t even have to look over a child’s head, they selfishly usurp part. of the play- ing field, and not. only work an injus- tice on the players but also on the other fans when the play has to be held up several times in order to chase them back to near their proper posi-g tions. 1 l It is a. selfish practise. It hampers and distracts the players who are sta- tioned in that part of the field. Most players trying to field a ball, will let it go if it is near the crowd. rather than run into the spectators in try- ing to get it. Occasionally a. player will try to ]get the ball no matter what the obstac e, and then if some person is run into and injured, the player is blamed and told "he should watch where he is going.” This is an abso- lute injustice. The spectator should be told “it serves him right” and that. he was on the playing field “where he had no business to be.” This does not mean the players should run in among the crowd after foul balls, regardless of where they stand, but when a spec- tator crowds out upon the playing field he takes his own risk of getting hurt.‘ Here in Durham the ball teams suf- fer from this annoyance continually, and at every game the umpire has to hold up the play, not once, but several times in order to get. spectators to move back so he can see the foul- line and judge balls which drOp near it. And the said spectators seem to think it “smart” to only move back the least possible distance, and as soon as play resumes crowd out on the field again. A practise. which seems common to ball tans almost everywhere, and which Durham people seem particularly ad- dicted to, is that of crowding in upon the edges of the ball diamond, along the first and third base line, in order to get a better view of the game. Var- ious methods of dealing with this habit have been tried in dinerent places, and the only effective method so far discovered seems to be to erect a high wire-screen fence along both sides of the diamond to the farthest limits of the foul-line. This, however, is an ex- pensive proceeding and only clubs and associations with strong financial back- ing can afford it. 1 Mrs. Will Timmins and Mina M.
