Who were of the opinion had their minds changed with a sudden jolt last night as the second place Macmen served notice that l:ey were a team to be reckoned with be.ore the final rikâ€" bons were won. Last night they took the field as the definite underâ€"dogs to the erstwhile highâ€"flying Combines, but when the final out was made thae secre board read 4â€"2 in favour of the Schumacher crew. The win wWas a well deserved one to as youthful Matt Mesich went the route for the winâ€" ! l 1 | ners and limited the hardâ€"hitting. backroaders to five safeties, and was only in trouble in the first inning when he handed the olser‘s a run On a/silver platter through two walks and hitting a baseâ€"runner, Aside that rather rough start, Mesich maséer of the situation and added to K-;ivf;l;’s"wqeq,py bagging Ai Errors played in major role in the Combine. "deteat. . <With: twoâ€" out in« the fourth, Johnston booted an easy grounder that; paved the way for two Mcintyre runs,. Bill Cooke was tha boy who finally did the big damage on the play, as he drove a single into centre to score the first two McIntyre runs and started his mates on the road to victory. *A Combine single and a wild pitch by Mesich knotted the ball game in the sixth but not for long as the Macmen struck back for one in their nal: of the sixth. Eric IAmot-t was the big stick man in this run as he rifled a aouble over the third bag to score Jack Thayer ahead of him with the playâ€"off counter. The Macmen weren‘t satisfied with â€" thid slim lead, and decided to add an inâ€" surance run in the eighth, Gunnar Telkinthnien, in centre field ‘for thd Combines, being the goat of the play. With Ted Lister on first through and infield single which got itself caught in the webbing of Kosick‘s glove, Telâ€" kinnen ran in on a fly ball by Baker, only to have the ball land back 0. him and be good for two bases. That enâ€" ded the scoring for the Macmen and gave them their third victory of the _year over the Combines. A feature of the game was the batâ€" tle between Lister of the Macmen and Romualdi of the Combines for the hitting honors. Before last night‘s contest, Lister was one percentago boint ahead of the backâ€"roader but last night Romauldi ‘"orged ahead as he banged out a hit in three tries while Lister was limited to one bingle Fictared at the Empire note' lotel after their trip in from Porguis Airport by ca «uUrC right F/L suis who were hests of the British Air Cadets, are fromâ€"leff to right Â¥/ 1 TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, AUGCUS »nimself a E.
