Some of his players were sens tional as time and again he went to the rescue of Prudhomme when the Stars threatened to break loona with a winning rally, Wildness on the part of the Sy- racuse pitchers and errors at critical times grought about the downfall of the Stars The Leafs got their first run of the second inning when Hargrave walked and High singled, and both runners advanced a base when Williamson erred in left field on High's blow, Lamotte singled Lo centre to score Hargrave. High tried to score, but was thrown out Ly Worthington, Burke popped to Williamson, and Hallahan trapped Lamotte and ran him down, Ben- so makig te put-out, In the third Alexander, first man up, walked. Smith took Prud- homme's grounder and started a double play, but Brown failed to touch second-base and his throw to Hurst was high, both runners be- ing safe. Jacobson lifted light to Brown, who 'miraculously' caught the ball while the faw fans in at- tendance applauded. > Webb struck out by that trouble- some Jimmy Walsh hit for one bose, and loaded the runaway, Walsh's grounder caromed off Third baseman Smith's leg. Hargrave drove the ball into centrefield, and Alexander counted, High reached first base on Brown's error, and Prudhomme crosscp the home plate, Then Lamotie struck ont. Brown's wretched work in the third "salted" the game away for the invaders, He had a hard time around second base in direct con- trast to Burke, who seemed to like that territory.

Scores of workmen throughout | the structure were putting the final touches to the thousands of tempor ary seats, l'ourteen thousand chairs I have been placed in the $40 section, and there remained something like 11,000 more of the high-priced chairs to be aligned before the close up ringside section is ready.

Rickard ircuer a warning against buying from an but an authorized source. The count erfeits came from the same origin as those which led to arrests in New York and Philadelphia, he said. It became Known that ticket-hold ers must display their tickets to r minimum of six persons. A full block from the entrancr there will be a cordon of 2,000 po licemen, who will make the first in spection of the tickets.

The merry march of the pig- skin parade has again captured its encouraging following of green gold and red warriors, and with a snap and a will they are digging into the nightly practices under the sa- gacious surveillance of coach M. F. Kirkland, in the anticipation of one of the most successful seasons yet geen in the rugby history of Osh- awa. Over twenty-five rugbyists, ranging from the bronzed and sea- soned veterans down to the en- thusiastic newcomers, and from the impressive 200'pound class right down to the light footed contingent of around the 126 pound mark, have all made their bow to the prinee of the autumn sports and are oul to tuck away a regular berth on one of the twelve positions wher the whistles blow for the opening game of the season which isn't more than three weeks off.

It only requires the signaturs of lewis to dispose of the othe half, thus assuring Toronto of see jing as good a bout as has bee | staged in recent years. Lewis ba | failed to agree to a reduction in hi: | purse and there is little chance o the bout being held unless he doe: s0. Both boxers came out of Mon day's ~ontest in good physical condi tion. and if there is amy trouble i staging next Thursday's show it wil only be because of the high demand of both boxers. Firpo's claim to a high a percentage of the gate re ceipts as received by Lewis in thei last meeting seems justified. He say: that he is quite ready to give Lewi: an opportunity to reverse the deci sion, but that it will be Lewis whe is boxing for the small end and no! himself. If enthusiasm means anything at all, this city will certainly be repre sented in the O.R.F.U. this fall in a+ intermediate series. Wednesday's meeting at the Y.M.C.A. attende« by a =zood crowd of young am breky men, was one of the snappiest sport meetings the writer has eve attended. It didn't last very long but what was said and done wa quick and scmsible. The suggestior that the club operate under the h General Motors Athletic Associatior bl amounted to little more than heavy exercise for the big champion. Gene warmed up slowly on the bags. Ap- parently he was a bit soggy after the lengthy layoff, and displayed little real energy until he locked gloves with "Chuck" Wiggins and Billy Vidabeck. In two rounds with Jack Williams. a Chicago heavyweight, Tunney clinched a areat deal to avoid the straight right hand Williams landed on his fare continually. Tunney boxed with speed and deftness, dancing lightly out of range whenever Wiggins or Vida- heck cut loose with both hands to the head. The champion's offense consisted for the most part of a "one-two" attack, a sharp left jab, followed by a right cross to the hin, the two blows landing almost 18 one Tunney missed frequently with both hands, and his timing \ppeared a bit rusty, Dr. Russell, who pronounced Dempsey a "perfect physical speci- men" several days ago, declared that Gene was "normal in every respect" after the examination. The titleholder said he was "un- opposed" to the announcement Tex Rickard made, that Tunney was to receive $1,000,000 flat or the bat- tle of the distant vista, The *per- nicious envy" aroused 'in the breasts of ordinary men was bad for the lower forms are Bert Cornwall Glen Mundy, Murray Cock, John (ireen, Lawrence McMurtry, Ton McKay, Bill Little. Jack Henry, and Earl Armour. Three lads of some promise and all with experience have also turned out, coming to 0.C.1. this year from outside points. Jim Stott, a lanky outside and fly- ing wing from Upper Canada and New Toronto, along with a middle. Meek, from Newmarket and another linesman, Davidson, from Scarboro, should all prove valuable additions to the team before the season draws to a close. Meek and Stott are in fifth form and Davidson in fourth, all three waighing over the 150 | pound mark. Don Cutler, of last | year's regular line-up until he in- jured an ankle will again be back, although he hasn't yet enrolled for the term. Practice at present is being con- fined to kicking, passing and gen- eral conditioning, no scrimmages | being partaken of yet nor for a week | at least. For a solid hour after four, | however, they are well making up | for the scrimmages by building-up exercises of all sorts which are be- ing prescribed by Mr. Kirkiand and which are doing them worlds of good, A home and home game sched- ule with all the teams in the Cen- tral Ontario group, consisting of Peterboro, Albert College, Belle ville, Cobourg and Oshawa, is be- ing proposed this year and with backing from both Oshawa and Co- bourg in this direction, at least, is very likely to materialize.

The Giants won the first game by knocking Haines out of the box in three in- nings, piling up a six-run lead, and continued the assault for a final total of 11 to 3. The Cards took the clos- ing battle by 8 to 5, darkness halt- ting the contest after the New York- ers had batted in the eighth. St. Louis used 20 players in the opening encounter, five being pitch- ers. Terry hit two home runs, his eighteenth and nineteenth of the season, one coming with two on base, Taylor made two triples, one with the bases full, when Haines had purposely passed Harper to get at Taylor. Faulkner Weakens Big Lefty Faulkner, the new Giant from Toronto, made his debut, and allowed seven hits in five and two- *hird innings, being lifted with the hases loaded. Larry Benton came 'o his rescue and put on the brakes, allowing neither a run nor a hit for 'he remainder of the game.. Faulk- ner got credit for the victory. In the second combat, the Cards ook advantage of New York errors, nd hit Fitzsimmons and Walker "ard.
