This application had been considered by committee `and turned .down by Council at .a prev- `ious meeting. .This time, with three {men absent, those favoring the in- `gcrease had a majority of one, but they failed in their object because `money grants on a straight niotion ;require a two-thirds majority.

In the nine stanzas he fanned eight men and was robbed of a ninth when Pat Ar- nold dropped a third strike, He al- lowed thirteen hits, walked two men ' and hit two others. Il`___A!,_ ., , .. I In- ;1<|L\.l u_y. : I Leighton Emms was in good forml for the winners. Thirteen Cookstown batsmen whiffed the air before his ldelivery, Dewey Hopper, the oppos-4 ing twirler, going down three times by the strike-out route, He allowed eight safe hits, passed three men and had one wild pitch. The Barrie twirler was robbed of credit for -an-I other strike-out in the eighth when Kidd got to 1st when Cooper dropped the third strike`, but Emms made it three strike.-outs in the inning whenl he whiffed the next man.

Foranj 30f Cookstown made a bare-handed `catch of Frank Armstrong"s hot line-3 !drive to extreme left eld in the sev-E enth and saved two runs that were* ion the bags and a trip_le or homer] for Frank. This was just in retalia-I tion for-.Armstrong s performance in the inning before, when Dewey Hon- per smashed a hot liner right at that] player. Armstrong made a beautiful ! jpick-up and touched the third sack! {thus forcing out Kidd, who was com-i ling from 2nd, and cutting off Cooks- town with no runs when the bases had been loaded. LeBar, the Cooks- town shortstop, pulled down a hot drive good for at least two bags from Buster Clark s bat in the eighth. Cooper s triple with two out in the eighth also featured.

With .the exception of the cricket match, 'in which Weston beat Allandale, all the competitions were between re- presentativesof the C.N.R. athletic `associations of the Toronto and Al- landale terminals. In order to lend added interest to the events, Supt. Weegar donated a handsome silver cup, for annual competition between `the men of the two terminals, to be decided by points, three successive wins being necessary to give perman- ent ownership. Toronto has the honor of first holding the cup, win- 'ning the football" match and a ma- jority of the track events. Allane dale won the baseball and the tug- `of-war and also the aquatic events.
