Home Series in Hatse Senin 0 Seidl Title By Showing Smart Class of Ball Behind "The Sutton's Airtight Pitching (By Staff Reporter) In one of the nicest little soft- ball games seen in Toronto Inter. mediate softball circles for some time, George Hill's Chevrolets handed out a 5 to 1 beating to Ir- vine Meat of Toronto, in the first of the home and home series of the semi-finals for the O.A. S.A. In- termediate championship, Perth Square, the scene of the game which only lasted 70 minutes, was crowded to capacity with over 1,- 000 fans and all went away satis- fied with having seen a smart, gnappy game of softball and after watching "Ike" Sutton zipping them across the plate, and tne manner in which the remainder of the team worked, everyone went away confident they had seen the better team win. It was an exciting game through- out, Home runs from Scott Hub- bell and "Doc" Rowden, a double play, Clayton to Irvine and num- erous other incidents gave it a color which sometimes is lacking from the usual softball battle. Crown, . eat by Sto 1 down to business and decided to knock Chevs' pet moundsman out of the lot, they found in addition to "Ike's" deceiving slants, a smart air-tight team behind him. Up until the sixth inning, the Toronto artists had only gahered three hits, and as a matter of fact they only poled out six in the whole game. It was in the ninth that they scored their lone run. Clay- ton, their second sacker, and the first man up for the inning, hit a roller down to Jones at third base and in his haste to get it over to first, he threw a trifle wide and Clayton kept right on going to sec- ond. Jones made up for it, how- ever, by gathering in a fly ball and continuing to hold Clayton on see- ond, but a grounder down to Gum- mow at secon dallowed the runner at second to advance to third while the out was being made at first, This was the first and only man to reach third base for Irvine Meat during the game, and as luck would have it, he was the very man to score. The count came when Stevenson, the centre fielder and captain of the team, connected for a clean hit, his third of the game, over shortstop. "Doc" Row- den retired the side and ended the game when he grabbed off a foul tip, when Irvine, the next batter, attempted to bunt, Chevs did their run shopping early and avoided the rush. One in "Tke' Sutton was again at the top of his form and had the meat mak- ers eating out of his hand practie- ally all the time. His speed for the first three innings simply made them look on with wonder and dis- may and when they actually got the second ,three in the third and one in the fifth, constiuted their allotment.

Despite the slightly unfavourable weather, the teams played magnificent ball and the fans were well satis fled with the games which were put up.

Bill Gummow started the procession when he singled neatly into left field, while "Ike' Sutton sent him to third and got on safely himself. Hubbell, who followed, made no uncertain slamy of his four sacker, the ball going over the centre fielder's head for a clean circuit smash, Rowden, the first man to bat in the fifth, came through with Osh- awas last run when he even bet- tered Hubbell's home run crack. He had no trouble at all in safely rounding the bases. Another nearly successful bid for some runs came in the seventh when after two Were out, Sutton landed out another single and went to third on two successive passed balls. Hubbell then drew a walk to make it two men on bases but a nice catch by Whetter at shortstop of Lloyd Hall's near sin- gle, saved the occasion for the Toronto men. Irvine Meat' went out in succes- sion in the first, second, seventh and eighth, and only four men stepped to the plate in the third, fourth and fifth. They were al- ways dangerous however and were right on their toes all the time and prepared to take advantage of any opening which offered itself to them. It was only Chevs' air-tight playing which prevented a larger score on Irvine Meat's part from being mounted up, and the same | Stevenson, cf. . thing will be the case in the game here Friday--if Chevs weaken In the least, the Toronto team will not he long in making rapid additions | to their count.

This was the first game of a home and home series 'in the playoffs for the ~ intermediate ladies' softball championship of Ontario, the return game being slated for Saturday in the Quinte city--if it doesn't rain? In spite of a cool north breeze, that made the day more like rugby than softball weather, the girls turned in a fairly snappy game, and it was not until the last couple Chev Ladies Win First Game From Belleville Ontarios Fair Crowd Turns Out to See * of innings tbat the Chevs were at all sure of coming out top of the heap. The Ontarios secured a three-run lead fn the second, and stayed in front until the Chevys tied the score 5-6 in the fourth, the score board remaining that way until the last half of the seventh, when the Chevs tallied their win- ning three runs.

NEXT THE POST OFFIO and Fulton--giving the Chevs their last pair of counters. Mabel Elliott's homer was, of course, the premier hitting event of the game, the only other extra-base clouts being recorded by Marie Genereau of the Quinte city, with a triple, and Vivian Elliott of the local nine, who doubled. Mabel El- liott, Vivian Fulton and Ina Gould each secured three hits out of five times at bat, while Vivian Elliott and Marie Genereau each hit twice out of four legal at bats. Mary Adams and V, Holdaway of the Ou- tarios each have the unique record of drawing four walks. Vivian Elliott, on the mound for Chevs, mowed down the girls irom the east with 11 strikeouts in nine innings, but she issued 14 walks and allowed 6 hits. Hazel Mat- thews pitching for the Belleville nnie, struck out 2, walked 6, and allowed 13 hits, in 8 innings. There were 32 legal at bats record- ed for the Belleville girls, while 41 players faced the visiting twirl- er. A double play in the seventh saved the Ontarios from having several more runs scored against them. Annie Walker was on third, Vivian Fulton on second and Ina Gould on first, with only one out, when Hazel Holmes popped a fly to centre field, Marie Generecau, keeping watch over that section of the pastureland, caught the fly after a hard run, and threw Annie Walker out at home when she tried to score, retiring the side and leaving two Chev girls stranded on the bags, Nearly every member of the Chev aggregation had a share in the scoring. Edith Elliott, Ada Cringle and Vivian Elliott each made two tallies for the cause, while Doris Kennedy Mabel Elliott, Annie Walker and Vivian Fulton scored one apiece. V. Holdaway scored two for the Ontarios, Mary Adams, Marie Genereau, Hazel Matthews, A. Keeleher and Olive Weelle each tallying one. Walks were largely responsible for the Belleville runs, four of their seven tallies being scored by girls who had been given compli- mentary tickets to first base, Like- Belleville, Sept. 19.--Belleville Nationals, eliminated Bell Tele- phone, Toronto emtry in the Sen- fer O.B.A.A. play downs here today by winning the second game in the semi-finals, 3 to 1. Belleville also defeated Bell at Toronto last Sat- urday 12-8, thus winning the series in two straight games. They will now meet the Walkerville "Chicks" for the provincial title, the first game in Walkerville on Saturday with the return game here next Wednesday. Bell Telephone were at full strength with the Sniderman bro- thers back in the line up, but the switch proved of little advantage, both players going hitless. "Hoot" Gibson, pitching ace of the Nationals, had the heavy slug- ging Hello boys at his mercy, re- stricting them to two hits, one a triple by Thompson. He struck out four and walked three. Hitless to the Sixth Bell Telephone went hitless un- til after two were out in the sixth inning and only five balls travelled to the outfield all the afternoon. Opposing Gibson was Carleton, right hander for Batstone's team. He pitched nice ball for seven inn- ings and then cracked wide open, though his team mates pulled him wise, four scores were made by an equal number of Oshawa ladies that had been given four walks all at once, The score by innings: «Hi Belleville ,,,030200002-- 7 6 O-hawa ,,..00230032x--10 13 The teams were: Oshawa--I.

By losing to the Buffalo Bisons here today, 7-2, they dropped to four and a hali games back of the league-leading Bisons | and even if they sweep the six-game Rochester series which starts tomor- row the best they can do is to finish in second place.
