THRILLS AND THUMPS FEATURE VICTORY: HUSSARS CAME FROM BEHIND T0 WIN, 109 Brockville Eliminated In Ten-Inning Battle at Gananoque-- Score 9-6 for Brockville Starting Last of Tenth-- Lawless "Knocked Cold" by Brockville Player, Moore Battered by Brockville (By Staff Reporter.) It McLean, the Brockville second baseman, had not struck Lawless, Hussars' third baseman and knocked him cold in the first of the tenth inn- Ing at Gananoque yesterday, then Hussars would be hanging away their uniforms to-day until another season, But that one little incident, which took over hal an hour to clean up, made the local intermediates fighting mad, and, in spite of the fact that the Brockville squad led 9-6 going 'Into the last of the tenth, Hussars scored four runs and walked off with the honors while the large crowd of Brockville rooters stood dumb with amazement, It was a great tenth inning. At the end of the ninth the score wae tied six-all. Draggett made first on Fapmon"s bad throw from deep short. Lightford singled and stole second, Dragget scoring. Lightford scored when Symons laid down a bunt Which was not fast enough at the plate. Symons went to second on a Passed bali and was caught between second and third by Lawless when Fannon fielded Knapp's grounder and passed it to third." McLean hit what looked like a three-bagger. Knapp passed third," where the Brockville fans were right on the line four deep. About seven feet Past it he fell. Some of the fans threatened Lawless, saying he had tripped Knapp, and Lawless walked towards them and then away when they quieted. There was a general mixup on that corner of the field with the Brockville fans encroaching on the diamond. McLean, running out his hit, found third occupied and started to go back to second. Law- less was walking in the same direc- tion and did not see him doming. As Ne passed Lawless, McLean struck bim, knocking him out. Moore rush- ed over to defend his team-mate and after he got a crack or two in was battered badly by the Brockville mob, suffering bad cuts about the mouth. There was a general mix. up for a few minutes and then the row stopped suddenly and big George Sullivan emerged unruffled from the centre. Hussars were doubtful as to their gourse of action. From the look of ithe crowd, which was entirely Brock- Wille, it seemed as if the whole team light be beaten up. However, after injured had been attended by ® Hughes, the game went on, McLean and La#less being put out for the duration. . Knapp scored on Singlefon's out at first and Whiting grounded to Gourdler for the third oui. The score was 9-6 for Brockville. Spen- €or was the first man up for Hussars = PN Try the New Cuticura| Shaving Stick Lean; two-base hits, McLean, Fans. and the wily old player outguessed Whiting and walked. Moore singles, Spencer going to third and Moore stole second. Nicholson singled to score both players, "Nickie" going to second on the throw to the plate. Arneill drove a single which should have sent Nicholson home but he stumbled starting and only reached third. Arneill stole second. Gour- dier drove out a long fly to right, Nicholson scoring on the catch. Twigg popped to Knapp. With the score tied, the ten innings, two men out, and Arneill on third, Hall came to the bat. Two high one: were called balls. Sammy fouled four throws from Whiting and on the fifth drove a beautiful single to right which scored Arneill and bust up the game. The Hussars had "got their mad up" and the New York Giants could not heve stopped them. That tenth inning was the high light of the game. It was exciting throughout. Brockville had the big edge in the breaks and the lucky hits but Ned Hartrick's bunch kept work- ing steadily. Their hits were clean- cut and their few errors on very hard plays. As {t turned out MdLean's action in hitting Lawless sealed tke doom of his-own teant_ With the heaving scoring by Brockville in the first of the tenth the Hussars were pretty well down in the mouth aud had Httle life in them but that scrap just started their blood going fast again and they were determined to win. The box score and summary tell the rest of the story of a big base- ball game and a big victory. Just as a note, it is very irterest- ing to see that in Gananoque, with the gate split three ways and travel- ling expenses out, Hussars -eceived more money than they did in the Brofkville game here in Kingston when they had the whole grie sav- ing only the O.B.A.A. share and local expenses. That's the way K'ngston fans support their team. All through the game a large crowd of Brockville rooters massed together along the third base line and "razzed" Moore. They nade up chrases calculated to rattle i!m and roared them at him. They yelled and booed and hissed him--yet he paid no attention, As he wound up large firecrackers would be thrown on the third-base-line, exploding itke pistol shots. Yet he accomplished three times as much as both their pitchers, scored four runs, delivered three hits in places they were need- ed, and stole a base for good mens- ure. He had four assists in the field, Those Brockville fellows might have been interested to know that Moore is called 'Doctor" at Rock- wood Hospital for the Insane where he is an interne and that, with his experiences there, they'd need to start a war to get him rattlod.

SPOR TING | THE DAILY BRITISH WHIGC GENERAL "MHE SINNERS, By Williams | aoe ns mi Thiel ls Wf , TRwllaug | 'Caprright. 1924. bv NFA Service. Ine) The 4th Hussars, having eliminat- ed Brockville from the running in the Intermediate 0.B.A.A. will now finish up their series with Wolfe Island and this gives the f.landers another chance at the laurel; and a better one. The boys trom over the water, if they can put it over the Kingston crew, will find themselves in the finals without meeting any more tough opponents. But 'it is doubtful if they can trim the local nine, William Wiley, eastern 0.B.A A. man, who umpired the game in Gananoque yesterday, gave further notice to remember the game with Wolfe Island on Thursday. When told that the Fair Grounds was oc- cupled he said the game could be played on the cricket fleld. Asked as to whether it was a sudden death game or a new series Mr. Wiley said: "It is just going on with your form- er home-and-home series. The Hus- sars victory against Wolfe Island stands." The fans should therefore have a good bang-up battle served up to them at the cricket field to-morrow evening, There is no means of charging admission at the cricket fleld but the usual sale of tickets will take place as voluntary contribution and a generous response will be looked for. The public may be in- terested in knowing that, exclusive of Tuesday's game in Gananoque, the Hussars were at a total loss of about fifty dollars on their playoff games to date. BOOST FOR "CARP" { Kingston, Sept. 15.-- (Sporting Editor): Georges Carpentier has had more admirers than any ring champion that ever lived, and per- haps it is equally true to say that no champion has had more de- tractors, The captious critics particularly enjoyed themselves when Carpentier lost to Gene Tunney recently, and they began to circulate all sorts of stories about the Frenchman to prove that he never was a real champion. Sonfe foreign liar--no softer term can be used--took this opportunity to send over a false report telling of how Mons. Georges was licked by a garage attendant soon after return- ing to France. (Note: The fight is supposed td' have taken place in the dead of night with no witnesses. How did the writer get the story, then?) The Whig published this false ac- count in the Monday issue for thls week, and in answer I would like to relate a tale myself--a true one, this time, The scene was in Paris, in the Faubourg Montmartre, which was full at the time of a crowd snch as one will only find in that therough- fare. A pale-faced, red-lipped girt sauntered along; a man followed her, seized her by the wrist, and swung her round. There was a blow, a scream, and the girl down, A handsome, tall, blue-e ed boy 8y- | pushed his way through the crowd, bls righ Is only one of « great § stories tola of Car- hoping this will We sortta feel that way about it also, You ses, Carpentier has been hitting the Americans where it hu: most, in the purse. They love to have out- siders fight for nothing so long as their own boxers puil down the big Pots but Georges is a bit of a busi- hess man as well as having a dis- tinguished war service. But please don't be so hasiy about "false" accounts unless you can pro- duce the proof.--Ed. BROCKVILLE AGAIN. Once more the Brockville fans have done something which gives their city a bad name all over the | mee one, beat up the Hussars pitcher, Moore. They were suspend- el from the O.H.A. for five years for such tactics in hockey and warned again but recemtly. -If they cammot play the game other than that way, far better to stay out of it. For the sake of the main body of the Brockville players we are sorry. With § few exceptions they seemed fine p'ayers and good sports. That, of course, does not apply to McLean, the second baseman. But it must be a great consolation to that second baseman and those rowdies in the crowd to know that their action, and that alone, defeated their team and put them out of the running. And to the Hussars we can only say they brought credit fo the oid Limestone City by their determina- tion and great fight against odds that were heavy. Flesh-colored chiffon evening gowns with self-colored ostrich and marabou bands are seen in meny versions at the most exclusive danc- ing places. Nothing but the right can ever be expedient, since that can never be true expediency which would sacri- fice a greater good to a leaser. The bold and sufficient pursue their game with more passion, en- deavor and application, and there- fore often succeed. They that govern most make least noise. Knowledge is the antidote to fear.
