They travel led in the latest style of locomotion, and arrived on the scene of battle in due course, without any untfwapd incident. So tar they were remark- ably fortunate, But, sad to relate, their expedition proved ultimately a sad failure, for they had to lower their colors to the Sniithville boys to the tune ot 4 goals to o. . However, the game was a clean and good one, but hardly up to the average. But are the GRIMSBY boys down-hearted? Ask 'em. They played three men short of their regular line- up, which is, of course, a big draw- back, and they hope' to try conclu- sions with Sinithville again shortly on. the home ground. _ a very advantageous thing to .pos- sass, when you know how, when and where to use it. The game was not what you could call a real fast one, both teams being inclined to lag a little, and at times very ragged ball was played. The Smithvillians had the edge on the GRIMSBY boys from the start and fully made up for their four-one defeat in GRIMSBY two weeks ago. ' ' 7 I , ll' I .3; tt - I . . ‘1 . "%" RIh El rr ax . “If .

BILL BLAMEY, the crack right half back ot the GRIMSBY soccer team, has enlisted for overseas service with the 39th Batt. band. Bill will be great 1y mitsed by the team, as he was the surest and best kick on the team, and by tar the greatest back ever seen in action in this district. Bill always did his bit on the football field and now he is going to do his bit on the battlefield. TOO BAD THERE ARE NOT MORE LIKE BILL. THE SOCCER TEAM is in a badly crippled condition at present, with their two crack backs gone, MacKen- zie laid up and a few of the boys gone stale, they are in bad shape. WILLIE FARRELL was in the game on Saturday and showed a tiash of his old time form at short. This is his first game since his accident. . HAD GARR, the Counter Checkers' pitcher, had a catcher like Schwab working behind the bat for him on Saturday, the GRIMSBYITES would never have got a run across the pan. Josephus is some pitcher. His catch- er did fairly well, but is not in "Boob's". class. “SMOKE McBRIDE, C. 0. D., saved the game for GRIMSBY again on Sa- turday against Stoney Creek. "Smoke" pitched a hard game against Hamil- ton and then had to go in and relieve Fisher. He pitched eighteen innings. Some iron man/ .

'lylllallf SOFT BALLEHE I SPLIT Illllllltii-llliilllliil 4arF'prbu'sfe,oiu904s6+H+r4+tm The GRIMSBYITES first went against the Appleford Counter Check Book team of Hamilton and were de- feated 6-2, but won trom the Stoney .Creek team by a score of 10-7. Josephus Angeline Garr was on the mound tor the Counter Checkers and believe us, he is some heaver. Joe can twist that ball into all kinds of shapes and it will do all kinds of! con- toitionist stunts at his bidding. A picked team of soft ball artists staged two games at the local ball yard on Saturday afternoon that were dandies. "Smoke" McBride, C.O.D., did the heaving for the GRIMSBY team, but was not in his usual good form, he would be invincible in spots and the very next innings they would hit him hard, but his team played errorless ball behind him and thus kept the score down. At times it looked as though Garf had the ball hoodooed, because the batters would never see 'it till it was in the catcher's mitt. In the Stoney Creek game, Mr.1 Wallace. Fisher, the great heaver trom' the newly annexed portion of GRIMS-é BY, essayed to serve the slants, but for 3 The Hamilton boys missed scoring in the first two innings but sent two over the pan in the third spasm. In the fourth and fifth they went score- less but came back for two more in the sixth. In the seventh and eighth they failed to connect with "Smoke's" slants but gathered two off him in the ninth. GRIMSBY went scoreless in the first, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, eighth and ninth, but. got a run in the second and again in the seventh.

"Smoke" gallantly arose to the oc- casion in the middle of the first spasm and sent Mr. Fisher to first- base. "Smoke" won the game right there and then. He finished the game and we do believe pitched better ball than in the first game. ' Grimsby ........ 3 0 0 4 1 0 0 2-10 Stoney Creek .. 3 0 O 0 2 1 3 0 1-7 Umpires-Fisher and Schwab.
