They and their improvement should re- sult in an even more exciting race ae leadership of the Ladies' Malleables seemed slightly eolor and also due to the good fielding of the Buicks, they were through in the pinches, Their flelding was fair, but several of the breaks im the game other hand, Buicks' fielding at times bordered on the miraculous. A home run by Isa McDonald, two and two doubles by Doris Kilburn 'were features of the game and so also was the record of ten strike ou Despite all these fine performances on the part of players on the O, M.I. team, they were nosed out hy Buieks, Rosy Reece scored a lone tally for Buicks in the first frame when on a double by Celia Siblock, Mal- leables evened it up in their half of the inning when Isa McDonald Malleabl went on a holiday throughout the wecond, third and fourth stangas, Charlie Rowden's one in the second, one in the third and two in the fourth, A walk started Helen Crowle around in the and two. fielders' choices, With two out in the third, Annie Fergu- son singled, took second on a pass- when Isa McDonald started hoot- fng the ball, Passed halls, a hit and a walk were all that were fourth, Nelly Reece and Lily Tyr- yell doing the damage. Reece's Nice Catch gitth, Three girls were left on basés when Malleables made their attempt to stage a desperate rally, on successful to augment the peope sheet, Isa McDonald, Doris ino and Helen McLean were Team in Ladies' vastly improved and strength- Tron ladies by a 10 to 8 Homa! and batted like a new team 11 League, ult unable on several occasions to come were against them while on the three base hits by Jennie Morgan made by Eileen ' Pipher, two runs by the league trailing she walked and was sent around connected for her homer, While damsels touched Eileen Pipher for pecond, advancing on a passed ball ed hall and finished her journey responsible for the counters in the Both teams added one in the and Edith Rombough was the only Jeftion bases when Nelly Reece re- tirefl the side on a brilliant catch in Bott: field, e sixth frame saw plenty of excitement when Buicks went on the war path for three more runs while Malleables made another at- tempt to catch up to them hy send- ing two more counters over the platter, Nine batters for Buicks Eileen Pipher but only Vi Sala lle Celia Siblock and Annie Ferguson succeeded in scoring, A three bagger by Jennie Morgan, followed by a single from Eileen Pipher and a sacrifice fly from Marg Spencer gave Malleables thelr two runs. hilé Buicks went scoreless in the seventh and added only one in the eighth, O.M.I. sent around one run in the lucky stanza and three more in the 8th, to bring the 10 to 8 jon. Doris Kilburn scored twice for ©.M.1, in these two innings and Isa McDonald and Marion Kay leounted the remaining two. All r runs were well earned, a dou- ew and a sacrifice bringing in the ope in the seventh and a walk, two ing) es and a double being the re- sult of the three in the eighth. De- spite last minute efforts by both teams, neither aggregation got any further than third base in the ninth inning. . It was a good game and on the exhibition last night, there is mo doubt that the best team won, Doris Kilburn, Jennie Morgan and Isa McDonald looked to be about the best for Malleables last night while Nelly Reece, Celia Siblock and Annie Ferguson stood out for Buicks, The teams were: Buicks--Rosy Reece, 1b; V.

Toronto, Montreal, Kitchener, Re- gina, Ottawa, Winnipeg and Kenora, are represented in the final bouts. In the 123-pound class T, Peterson, of Toronto, and J, Trifuney, of Regina, a member of Canada's team in 1924, will battle for title honors; in the 134-pound division P, McDonald of Toronto will meet A, C. Stewart, of Ottawa; H, Thomas, of Montreal, op- poses J, H. McKinnon, of Winnipeg, in the 145-pound class; H, Priestley, Toronto, and M, Letchford, Mon- treal, meet in the 158-pound division; the 174 will see a struggle between Don Stockton, of Montreal, a point winner for Canada in 1924, and B. Anderson, Kenora; while in the 191 George Rumple, Kitchener, another member of Canada 1924 squad, op- poses W, L, McIntyre, a Winnipeg man, Royals Have Easy Time With the Jersey Cats Montreal, July 6, -- The Royals pounded Sonny Horne for eleven hits that included two homers and three doubles, to romp to an easy victory over Jersey City here today 9--4, The Black Cats got away to a promising start with three runs in the first inning, only to have the Royals come right back in their half of the same session to knot the count, Two runs in the third and another trip in the fourth left no doubt of the outcome, ' Frank Stapleton crashed out a home run with none in the fourth and Tom Gulley added Montreal's final run with the second circuit drive of the day in the seventh in- ning. Ed, Kunesch, who collected four hits in five trips to the plate, ac- counted for Jersey City's last tally, when he doubled in the ninth to score Lesko, Leafs Defleated by Newark Bears Play Eleven Innings Before the Bears Nose Out Win 3 to 2 en Walter Leverenz, Leafs' veteran southpaw, held the Newark Bears to two hits for seven innings yeas terday and then lost the second game of the series 3 to 2 in the eleventh, Hustling Johnny Conlan, tne Bears' centrefielder, back in his po- sition after a short layoff with a damaged elbow, was the power be- hind the attack and defence that carried his team to victory. Conlan whipped out the hit that drove over two runs to the score in the eighth, he engineered a dou- ble steal in the same inning and he ran miles to rob Dale Alexander and Eddie Phillips of triples, per- haps homers. Leverenz deserved to win, He was generous to the number of nine bases on balls, but was not as wild as that fact would indicate. Some of the charities were yielded to sidetrack a dangerous batter in fa- vor of one that batted from the offside of the plate, YTeverenz Deserved Victory The seven hits off the former Bi- son were scattered over four inn- ings, but the Bruins bunched three in the eighth for a pair of tallies and two in the eleventh for the winning score. Of the nine passes only one figured in the run-getting of the Bruins and that one was sandwiched in between the two hits in the deciding round, Lew Malone, late of the Bisons, produced the game winning hit in the eleventh and it was an unlucky break for Leverenz and the Leafs. With Martineck on second, through his single, and a walk to Jenkins, and one out, Malone slashed the ball at short, but with Warren Cote all set to snatch the ball on the bound and start a sure fire double play, the old agate took a bad hop and shot off the short- fielder's glove into centrefield, Mar- tineck scoring from second with ease, Lew Malone Again It was Malone who pried loose trouble. for Leverenz in the eighth, He opened with a corking hit to right and Mackin followed witn a single over second. Dixie Carroll went in to bat for Billy Moore and laid down a perfect bunt, moving the hase warmers up. Then came the left-handed hitting Jocko Con- lan and he rapped the first pitch to centre, to propel Malone and Mack- in over the plate and knot the count. Conlan went to second on the throw to the plate and with Lee, who had heen intentionally passed, pulled a double steal, ' Leverenz was unable to get the hall over for Jake Fournier and walked hinr, clogging the corners, Burke made a fast play to retire Martineck and halt the rally, Juvenile Jabs Going into the ninth inning of last night's game the Leafs had to score six runs to win--and they did it. » : Marjorie Clark and Joe Sharpe were injured at last night's game, being hit by a flying bat from the hands of McKnight and the result was disastrous. Marjorie Clark received a split broken nose while Joe Sharpe had a few front teeem knocked out, It there had been ropes around the Diamond last night this wouldn't have happened. Instead of this the League now have 8 doctor bill to pay. Manager Jacobl must have had an assortment of horse-shoes and rabbit feet in the bat bag last night. The Eagles play Beavers at Cowan Park Monday night, on the dope they are expected to win, but '| Beavers are mot so pleased with occupying the cellar and may yee bowl over somebody. Guijltinan of Esgles let his op- ponents down with six runs in the last two games while his team- 'mates have scored 23 for him. "Other twirlers take notice." YANKS RELEASE URBAN SHOCKER the ay unconditionally released by 'the New York Yankees. Late in reporting and not in the best. of shape, Shocker agreed with Manager Hug- gins that he could not reach elicctive form this year. ¥ Yankee manager was it was understood, to place Shocker on the volun- tary retired list. but he asked for his outright release, to which he was entitled as a ten-year man in the major leagues. He joined the New York Americans in 1916, and was traded to the St. Louis Browns in 1918. For eight vears he was a star pitcher for St. Louis, and in 1925 he came back to the Yankees by trade. He had the distinction of being the only player once traded by Huggins to return to the Yankees. SPORT SNAPSHO1S All Hail to Joe Wright!--the boy's a tory over Lee today was sweet rev marvel, The Argo scullers vie Joe had to wait a year for another enge. chance but he came through with flying colors, just as he would have lagt year but for an untimely accel dent. Wright's victory over Jack Guest in the Diamond but rowing enthusiasts who should know say that the less- was expected, experienced Guest will be good Sculls yesterday to defeat Joe in a year or so. enough Argo scullers are the best on the continent by their showings in the last two years. The double-blue Senior eight will make the Olympie trip by winning over Winnipeg yesterday. Last year at Wyandotte, Michigan, the Toronto scullers cleaned up in the international meet. The girl softballers are to hit their stride in the local beginning league, battling to a 10--8 score last night in the Malleable-Buick game. Eileen Pipher struck-out tem motor players but lost reasons for and walks being the main he game. Errors the defeat. In losing to Ulsters, General Motors lost to the professional champions of Canada, players who play for the money they receive more than for the sport itself. Oshawa players are strictly amateurs and receive no financial recompense whatever, The Redhanders are a wonderful team and the players were unanimous in declaring the three games with Oshawa the hardest they had ever played in Canada. + The National League is hardly under way as yet, Motors meeting Overland at Alexandra park today. The set-back was a bitter pill to swal- low, preventing the G.M.C. players from a trip to Montreal and then to the Western Coast, but such things will happen. Tom Smith the Motors' goalkeeper is one of the best in Canada. His marvellous saves in Thursday's game bringing the fans to their feet many times during the game, Giving Chris Sathrang credit for having the hardest shot in soccer anywhere in the world is a large statement to make, but one has only to watch the husky Swedish boy drill them at the net to believe it. The teams of this city do more than any other single organization with one exception to keep Oshawa in the public eye. With lacrosse, baseball and soccer in full swing during the present season, the folks are bound to know the town's alive, The visit of St. Simons here today is one of the biggest events of the year. The Saint's Seniors must receive every attention to make up for the rotten deal handed out to the Juniors, The ball team is at Peterboro today and at their present rate of travelling should be able to take "Josh" Craig's men without expending too much energy. Kingston will engage Belleville at the same time and the fan who can pick the winner of that struggle should follow the races for a living, Central League race doth remind us Standing now is quite O'K But the teams that are behind us May be shifted any day, The Junior lacrosse team, which had such an easy time at the expense of St. Simons will journey to North Toronto this Monday for their first game with the Queen City team of the confusing name. There 18 a rumour going the rounds that certain Toronto interests are seriously considering Oshawa as the location for a team in the Cana dian Professional Hockey League. Hockey is a great drawing card here and the plans are likely to go through. And by the way--the foundation for the new rink has not commenced, What sayest thou, Horatio? Ault Sets New Record For Mile Ottawa Flash Swims Mile in 23.36 1.5 at Olympic Trials Toronto, July 6,--Garnet Ault, fim Ottawa lad, who has borne the colors of the University of Michigan, in the United States ins tercollegiate tank tests, shattered the Canadian record for a mile at the Canadian Olympic trials held last night in the Sunnyside tank. Sharing the honors with Ault was Alf, Phillips, Canada's premier amateur diver, whose artistry on the springboard retained for him his Canadian laurels and outclass- ed a field of the country's best performers. Thousands thronged the stands and the boardwalk ad- acent to the tank to see the first half of the Olympic trials and Canadian championships last night and a larger crowd is assured for the remainder of the events which will be contested this afternoon. Cuting through the water with long smooth strokes and a power- ful body roll, Ault covered the mile distance two laps in the van of the nearest contender in 23 minutes, thirty-six and three- fifths seconds or one minute, six and three-fifths seconds over the best Olympic time for that dis- tance, The Ottawa swimmer could have improved his new Can- adian record had he been pressed is the belief of experts who watch- ed his performance. He took to the van from the gun and forged strongly ahead throughout, increas- ing his lead steadily and winning with much in reserve. His work was highly impressive. Wormold and Griffin The race was all behind the Ot- tawa boy. But it was surely a race, even if only for second hon- ors. Harry Wormold, of Montre- al, and Murray Griffin, a fifteen- year-old Toronto lad, staged 8 bit- ter duel for the second placing and at the tape were only a foot and 8 half apart, the Montreal swimmer getting the call. In the early stages Griffin set the pace behind Ault, but. two hundred yards out Wormold moved into the the contentio nand in the last hun- dred yards the two raced stroke for stroke. Wormold moved in- to a slight lead but the courage- ous Toronto youngster, though tir. ing, clung on tenaciously and fought to the last stroke. Alf. Phillips was the complete master of the quartette who coms peted in the springboard diving test. Graceful as an artist of terp- sichore, sensitive as a master of musie, Phillips' performance was truly brilliant. He demonstrated the most difficult feats with mas- terly precision and he has improy- ed immeasurably over last year's form. Herb Gibson, of Central Y, de- feated Clayton Bourne, carrying the crest of M.A.A.A. and a mem- ber of the 1924 Olympic team, in the first heat of the one hundred yards free style, while Monroe Bourne, also of M.A.A.A., won the second heat in this event with Jobuny Goss of Varsity second. SOFTBALL CRAZY! Toronto, July 6--Moere than eleven thousand fans from all over the city thronged Kéw Gardens last night to witness the unique profes- sional softball exhibition game between "Lena" Styles and his mates from the Tor- onto Ball Club and a collec- tion of local professional hockey players. "Lena" and his boys got the verdict, 10 to 7, showing a partiality for the offerings of "Hap" Watson, who went the route, however, and was unheatable in his fun-making efforts at any rate, Walter Johnson and other officials of the Newark and Toronto clubs were on hand and were introduced to the throng, Sunnyside Stadium was packed last night and hun- dreds unable to gain admit- tance lined King street to see the Cleveland Flemings, soft- ball champions of the United States, defeat Pats of the National League 12 to 4. The game was featured by the extra base hitting of the American champions, Miss Benda getting a homer and a double, £13 Nagy a double and Miss Simmons a triple, "Handy Andy's" Error Too Bad for Orioles Buffalo, July 6.--An error by Andy Anderson sent the Baltimore Orioles down to defeat in the opening game of the series with the Bisons here today by a score of 2 to 1, With two out and a man on second in the seventh inning Al Moore hit a grounder to Anderson, who allowed the ball to roll to left field, Mangum scoring the winning run and Moore taking two bases. RENE LACOSTE KING OF ENGLISH TENNIS Wimbledon, July 6.--Rene Lacoste, master in defensive temmis, today turned chet gles. England for the fourth time in the last five years, watched two French finalists in match which was an anticlimex to the thrilling in- contests of the last two weeks. Cochet, seemingly content merely to defend his title, lost it to a steady youth, who, advancing to the attack from: the first game, never . was su- perior. The scores reveal that for Cochet went down in four sets, 6--1, 4--6, 6--2, The final will be completed for today.

Cards stopped their rally one run too soon.

Bowder c, > Ottawa, July 6.--An all-United States final will be played in the men's singles event of Ontario lawn tennis championships here to- morrow, with A. H. Chapin, jr., of ringfield, Mass., coming up these players today is any criterion. Doeg won the admiration of the gallery for his display, his cannon- ball service being moteworthy. Doeg won from Dr. Arthur Ham, of To- ronto, who defeated Willard F. Crocker yesterday, and although Ham won the first set at 6--4, Doeg ran out the next three at 6--4, 6--4, 6--1. Chapin's win over Walter F. Mar- Saskatch ch i was not Quite so easily accomplished, al- though he won in straight sets. Mar- tin fought hard all the way, losing out finally at 10--8, 6--4, 6--3. In the first set he was on the verge of a win 5--4, but was over-eager, and served double faults at critical points. Practically every game was deuced one or more times, Making Six Errors--Lid- ster Gets Three Hits and Hurls Fair Ball But Team- mates Fall Down The G. M. C. Major League soft- ball game at Alexandra Park last night was not up to the usual stan- dard, Chevs. taking an easy victory The league-leading Chevs. were never in trouble and after the first four innings the winners simply went through the motions, Lidster on the mound for La Salles tried hard to provide sufficient opposi- tion, pitching a fair game and hav- ing a perfect day at bat with three safeties. His team-mates had a de- cided off-night, however, commit- ting six errors to help the Chev. cause, Tuesday night should see a big crowd of fans when Chevs. and Pontiacs meet for the second time, the pitching duel of "Ike' Sutton and Art Rogers still being fresh in the minds of the fans. Rogers holds the record with thirty five in two games, six- teen and nineteen, but Sutton whiffed fifteen in a seven-inning battle and is considered just as ef- fective, The last time the teams met the greatest crowd of the sea- son turned out and watched Sutton out-twirl the ex-Hamiltonian by a { Hall, H, 1f, for strike-outs | d Chevs 1ake Easy Win 1 in Motors Softball League Losers Fielding Below Pur. aeut margin, Ty 0 dd ° = 2 s 5 Ble dn nn pony Young, ss. ..
