~N THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1928 PAGE RLéveA HAMILTON TIE UP SERIES WITH CHEVS FOR ONTARIO SOFTBALL TITLE Ambitious City Team Turn Tables by Same Score as in Oshawa Evenly Matched Beams Bat- tle for Supremacy for Full Nine Innings -- Second Game Equally as Sensa- tional as the First -- Alex Webster Twirls Fine Ball for the Motor City Crew History repeated itself in the re- verse direction in Hamilton yester- day afternoon, when Hamilton Wentworth, Radios hammered out two home runs and thereby defeat- ed George Hill's Chevrolets by no less than a 4 to 3 count, thus even- ing up the series for the Intermedi- ate Championship of the O.A.S.A, and making a third game in Toron- to necessary. ' It was a fast and another such game as that played here last Wed- nesday, with everything being pres- ent to make it a genuine champion- ship battle. Hitting was hard but fairly well scattered while the work on the field bordered at many times on the sensational. Alex Webster got the pitching assignment for Chevs and after a bad start ip the first inning, twirl. ed excellent ball, which -with tha team playing well behind him, was sufficient under usual circumstances to wi nany game, He only allow- ed nine hits as compared to the eleven which his team mates blipps ed off Woods, but as already indl- cated, the breaks were against nim and as a result, a third game is now necessary. Chevs were in the running all the time and Hamilton had to play as they never had before to pro- tect their lead from the lambasting of Young, Rowden, Sutton and company, Following Doc Rowden's circuit smash with none on the paths in the first, Gord Young took up the torch in the third and doubled through shortstop, to score a min- ute later when Rowden again smashed one into centre field, Fast work by the center gardener limit- ed this to a double although {t was ticketed for a four hagger, The third and last tally came when Hubbell dumped a two bag- ger into center fiel dand advanced to third and then home on succes- give passed halls, This was the most" fortunate run of any scored during the day. There was one man on the paths when Jaris the third man to bat in the first stanza, cracked out his home run into center field, The second homer of the inning follow- ed immediately, when Woods cpught one in the groove and gave it a merry ride past Hubbell at base into deep right field be- fore. it came to a stop, Their fourth and winning co#in- tér came in the third with Johnson getting a single in the infield and advancing when Jarvis hit into tight and Woods came through with a double into center, So closely was the game played after this stage of the affair that in the last six innings, there was only one run scored, The play by innings: First Inning Chevs--Young, first man up, struck out. Gummow struck out, Rowden homered to left centre field. Hub- bell struck out, catcher dropping the ball and throwing to lst. 1-1-0, Hamilton--G, Jarvis, first man up, walked.

The Athletics won from Chicago, 7 to 5, but the Yank- ees retained a lead of two and one- half games with only two more to be played by each of the conten- d ors, . George William Pipgras, a lead- ing cog in the Yankees' remnants of a pitchipg staff, but a failure until today on this trip west, turn- ed in the flag-winning victory. The Tigers prodded him hard, but he had a good lead from the start, Gibson, Stoner, Smith and Page failed to stop the Yanks, Ruth Homers Off Page Babe Ruth hit his fifty-third home run in the eighth inning with Koenig on base. Page was then in box for Detroit. Only a landslide now could give the Babe enough homers in his two. remaining games for him even to tie hia ma- jor league record of 60, set last yéar, but he, may possibly get two more to make 1928 his third best season. The Yankees fire' woh the Amer- fcan League championship in 1921 and proceeded to reel off three In a rqw. Then, after a second-place finish in 1924, and a dip to sev- enth in 1925, the club regained the top in 1926 for the start of its second run of three. By win- ning six flags, the Yanks moved into a tie with the Athletics and the Red Sox, each of whom took six In their palmy days. Win Their 100th Game The winning campaign of the Yankees falls naturally into three divisions, Through the first two months they were invincible, win- ning thirty-nine and losing only eieht for a percentage of .830, FEx- perts were likening them to the famous Cubs, woh won 116 games in1906, and wondeted how badly the chamipons would shatter that mark, Some estimates ran as high as 125 games. They were thankful today to win their 100th, 0--o--0. | CARDINALS SCORE SEVEN RUNS IN FIFTEENTH TO WIN Boston, Sept. 28,--The St. Louis Cardinals finally broke through the splendid defence of Pitcher Bobby Smith, of the Braves, to win in 15 innings, 10 to 8, here this after- noon, making it certain that the Missourians cannot lose the Na- tional League pennant this season, except in the event of a play-off, As the Giants lost, the Cardinals now lead the second place Man- hattanites by two full games, Each contender has hut two games to play. The Cards have one here tomorrow and one at the Polo Grounds Sunday, while the Giants entertain the Cubs again tomorrow afternoon. Richhourg's Costly Error It required 8 hours 34 minutes to play today's game .at Braves' field, The blow-off camre with one out in thes fifteenty, when Rich- bourg, playing right field for the Braves and who had been putting up a remarkably good game at hat and the field, made a three-base muff of George Harper's long, high fly, Wilson walked and so did Thevenow,- Then pinch-hitter Ray Blades walked and forced in the run which broke the three-all dead- Jock. That would have been'ample to win the game for the visitors, SENATOR IS 101 Ottawa, Sept. 28.--Tomorrow Sen- ator George Dessaulles, the oldest member of the upper Chamber, will celebrate his 101st birthday. Born at St. Hyacinthe, Que, Senator Des- saulles was called to the Senate on March 12, 1907. His first entry into politics was in 1877, when he was el- ected Liberal member for St, Hya- cinthe County, During the last ses- sion of Parliament Liberal and Con- servative Senators presented Senator Dessaulles with an oil painting of himself. At the presentation Prem- ier W. L, Mackenzie King and Hon, R. B. Bennett, Conservative Leader, paid tribute to Senator Dessaulles in brief addresses. ROADS TO AN END There are two roads to Babylon, And one is fair and straight and clean, With running brooks hills And little fields between, and sunny But one road turns into a wood With brier and thorn and twist- ed tree, Where lives the fairy Oberon And that' s the road for me.

But although they connected for at least one hit in every inning afterwards, some of which resulted in runs, they were unable to do better than tally up three counters. Doc Rowden, Gord Young and Scott Hubbell scored the three runs while Wentworth's quartette went to Jarvis the shortstop, E. Jarvis at first base, Woods the pitcher and Johnson the second sacker. Owing to some none too gentle with Queens, "Ike" Sutton was unable to pitch took his place, Except for the first handling he got in a recent practice Jesterday and Alex Webster stanza when they connected for two home runs off him, Alex pitched a marvelous game and in the second, he struck the side out in one-two-three succession, ---- After the game, Alex Webster had to go to North Bay to manage the Chevs' ladies team who were playing there this afternoon. Alex left Hamil- ton at 8.35 o'clock and had to catch the 10.05 train for North the Union Station, He made it with The ladies' game in North Bay considerable interest since the North Bay leaving two minutes to spare, this afternoon will be followed with Bay damsels are credited with being "the class" up in the northern portion of the province, tario, Anyone to argue the point? Chevys can now at least lay claim to being the class of Eastern On- _ Befare we leave the subject of Chevs, it's worth mentioning that the third and deciding game between Hamilton Wentworths and George Hill's Chevs will be played at Viaduct Par, Toronto either Monday or Wednesday of next week, The weather today could have been a little better for the benefit of the senior O.A.LA, battle but have nevertheless a record crowd is ex- pected and one thing is certain, it won't make any difference upon the kind of game which is served up, It will have to pour down before Excelsiors and General Motors' twelve 'will be content to slacken up and call it "quits" this afternoon, Both teams are out for the title and they mean to get 'it, The officials in charge have spared no effort in making their arrange- ments complete for this afternoon's game and the banners and bills around town is only a partial evidence of the work they have heen doing. There's more to the success of a lacrosse game or a lacrosse team than the players which you sce out on the field, The officers of the General Football Club were announced today and will be found in PUNTS and TACKLES. The list is a formidable looking one and if this executive can't make the Club a success, we don't know what combination will, Oshawa's Collegaite's Field Day yesterday was an outstanding success and although not many records were broken, the tionally kcen about the records, competition was excep- and when this is the case, the onlookers don't worry too much The annual Inter-scholastic meet between Bowmanville, Oshawa and Whithy schools which is to be held next Wednesday should be the best and the most closely contested in years, BROWNS DEFEAT SENATORS 4 TO 3 St. Louis, Sept, 28,--General Alvin Crowder, leading pitcher of the American League, chalked up another win here today when the Browns defeated the Washington Senators, 4 to 3. Dan Howley's mound aee holds undisputed pos- session of first place with 21 wins and 6 losses, Competition between "Goose" Goslin, of Washington, and Hienle Manugh, of St, Louis in their neck and neck race for league batting honors resulted fn heavy hitting today by the opposing outfielders, Goslin bit a home run and a single in three times at bat, while Manush registered three hits out of four times up.

Cochrane's home rum, his tenth of the season, came in the first inning with no one on base, Simmons' homer, his fifteentn of the season, came in the ninth, also with the bases empty. Miller had a perfect day at bat, with four singles In addition to his home run, in five trips to the plate, SEARCHERS FIND BATHING SUIT OF MISSING LONDON BOY London, Sept. 28--The bathing suit belonging to Robert (Sonny) Dallard, missing London boy, was found by his father in a clump of bushes on the beach at Port Stanley.

ESSEX FROST LOSS PLACED AT $450,000 Windsor, Sept. 28-- Though Essex County farmers suffered severe loss in many cases, from Tuesday's heavy frost, more complete reports from the country districts today show that the frost was quite erratic in its descent and that many fine fields of tobacco can be saved. 'omatoes ,too, were affected in the same way, and it is possible that much can be saved from this crop. Hundreds and hundreds of tomatoes only slightly nipped, are being haul- ed to the canneries, where they are useful for certain purposes. Much of the tobacco still stand- ing in the fields was made unfit for the barns, and the fact that between 10 and 15 per cent of the crop re- mained in the open, uncut, until after Tuesday might, indicates that the in- complete estimates compiled by farm- ers who sought to figure up losses from the frcst are more or less sub- stantiated by latter reports which as the result of the disease Mace the monetary loss around $450,- men | game TWO RECORDS BROKEN AT TRACK MEEB Although it was one of the most successful meets held for some time, there were omly two records brokem at Oshawa Collegiate's Annual Track and Field Meet held at Alexandra Park yesterday afternoom, These however, are likely to stand for some time.

GIANTS LOSE 7 TO 5 AND PRACTICALLY DROP FROM RACE New York, Sept, 28.--Giant pen nant hopes for 192% were p.acea neatly in the grave this afternoon, but they won't throw on the airt until tomorrow, There is still some slight chance that the corpse may come back to life, The Cubs mussed up Larry Ben- ton in a disgraceful manner this afternoon, and showed no better manners when Joseph Genewich was introduced from the mound, Old Jack Scott finally dashed to the rescue in the ninth, but the damage already had heen done in the shape of a to § victory for tha Bruins, The Cards and the Braves were stilll at it in Boston. Was it pos- sible that the derelict Braves could turn back the leaders? , Giant showers waited upon the necessity some 30 steaming youpg athletes felt of crowding ahout the ticker in John MeGraw's office in the club- house, but what they read burned their eyes: -- "National at Boston--Fifteenth: St. Louis 7; Boston 0." That grand inning gave the fore- es of Willlam MeKechnie the hig end of the hacon hy 0 to 3, atfer the Braves had apneared ready to scurry mischievously off with the winning run on several occasions, It further increased the margin of the Cardinals over the Giants to two full games, with only two more to go. All MeGaw"s fight will have been in vain if the Cards are strong enough tomorrow simply to push over the Braves, That Sunday now looks very much like it will be for exercihe only, PUNTS and TACKLES By the Dopster Two full teams and a couple of spares turned up A last night for their little lesson in the manly game of rugby. * % % This fellow Pound sure knows his stuff and already the boys are showing the effects of good coach- ing, The wings go down wupder those kicks like veterans and should prove very dangerous to any opposing half backs. $$ % The boys made a nice selection' fn their officersi for the General Motors Rugby Club, Ross MacKin- non is a red-hot president and was out in the rain on Thursday to see the boys "sop it up."
