OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MAY 18, 1922 PAGE FIVE BASEBALL BOWLING w TENNIS LACROSSE SOCCER GOLF, Etec. All is Ready tor Opening Central League Saturday LOCALS HAD SNAPPY WORK-OUT TUESDAY--GEORGE PEA- COCK LOOKS 'EM OVER The Central Ontario League "sea- s0n opens on Saturday, when Oshawa travels to Leaside for a tilt with George Peacock's athletics, Local supporters, several hundred strong, will accompany the team so great is the interest centred in the opening fixture. Oshawa, headed hy Bert Booth will be pitted against the strategy of their former manager and a hard battle is expected, Dailey and Gallagher will probably he the opposing pitchers, It is the firet time in the history of the league that Oshawa have open- ed the season away from home but they will be seen in action on their own grounds against Port Hope on Victoria Day. May 24th. There will he the usual ceremonies accompanied by the flag raising function, which should provide a fitting opening for the local Central League season. The management have practically all ar- rangements made and are wadlting for the announcement "play hall." The 1922 season promises to he the most eventful since the C.0.B.L, was organized, and the race for the pennant and the Johnston Cup should be of the sensational variety. The intense rivalry and the rebuilding of several of the elubs have aroused the interest of fandom and, if the wea- ther man is kind, there will be rare doings around the Central circuit on Saturday. A little bit of everything featured the practise on Tuesday night when a fine turnout of players hopped around the bags on the instructions issued by Bert Booth. An interested spectator on the sidelines was George Peacock, who looked the boys over the report he took back to Leaside should not increase the new entry's enthusiasm over Saturday's game. Morley Jacobi held down the third sack and he looked to be in better condition than ever before. He still has the old whip to first and his fielding could not he eriticized. For half an hour a fast fielding practise was held after each player had taken a turn at the bat and the old pep was there. "Ted" Saunders cavort- eg, around second with Ray Belding at the initial corner and Walt Fair at short. "Kip" Rowden, who "Sandy" believes will wear a Lind- say uniform, hus also participated in practises so that the Greybirds will not have his services this year. "Kip" is also showing old time form. The fine weather of the past two weeks has allowed the team to settle down to, business and the plapers have made good use of their time. It will be a big day for Port Hope on May 24th and "Sandy" should bring the | whole village here to see a real ball team. Manager Booth has said very little regarding the line-up for Saturday's game but it will be finally settled be- fore the opener at lLeaside The pitching department will be strong anfl the fans are eager to see "Ted dy" Gallagher work again. He was very popular here when he twirled in the Town League a few years ago but he will make a bigger hit than ever in the Central circuit. He will have a fast infield to work with and some consistent hitters, which should put Oshawa in the first division at Jeast. A number of players are try- ing for an assignment to the outer garden and those who catch a place will be real top notchers. Altogether the outlook jis bright for the Oshawa Club having one of the most successful seasons in its history and there is no guestion but the team will receive the same liber- al patronage as in previous years.

The O, and D. Coun- cil have given the Toronto League control over the Oshawa Club's play- ers and the trouble which has heen brewing for some time has heen smoothed over, On Saturday next Cowans, of To- ronto, will meet the locals at Alex- andra Park and it is up to the home team to retain the leadership of the second division which feat they should be capable of doing, judging from previous performances, parti- cularly against Swansea, a first divi- sion eleven. Cowans played Swift's last Saturday, another first division team, to a draw so that Oshawa will have no walkover with their oppon- ents. The game will be in charge of L.. T. Nelson, L. Jowett, who was at first selected to carry the whistle being unable to make the trip. Lo- cal soccerites should be on hand for the contest to give the team the en- couragement they deserve and assist them in setting the pace for all sec- ond division teams.

MEETS NIGHT IN TORONTO The passing of players' certificates and arranging for the opening games on Saturday made the executive meeting of the Central Ontario League in Port Hope, Tuesday, a very busy one. The Leaside situation came in for some discussion, and George Peacock was appointed to represent the league at a meeting of the 0.B.A.A. executive, which is being held to-night in Toronto, when among other matters to he taken up, is the question of uniform residence rule, .

Port Hope Guide:~--We thought from the numerous advance notices and the special despatches in the To- ronto press regarding the Central Ontario League meeting here yester- day that some person would be sen tenced to be hanged at sunrise. But nothing nearly as drastic happened. Toronto teams have been bubbling over because certain players have decided to play with Leaside and brought the matter to the attention of the Ontario Baseball Association and also the Amateur Association. As a result of these protests a meet- ing of the sub committee of the On- tario Baseball Association has been called for to-morrow at Toronto and Mr. George Peacock, of Leaside, was appointed to represent the Central League.

The term "wrist" has been used loosely to in- clude movements which have noth- ing to do with the wrists proper. An Instance of this is the confounding of forearm with wrist action. The camera has done a lot to clear up this confusion, for it can catch and hold, so to speak, the different move- ments in the swing wnich are impos- sible to the eye. When one address: es the ball preparatory to hitting it he usually indulges in a preliminary moveme calléd the waggle. All good playePs- do this. If the reader does not, then he had hetter start, for without the waggle little pro- gress can he made. It simply means making the club pass hack and forth over the ball a few times. The movement should he done ex- clusively with the hands. The club head will make a small segment of the are of the real swing. Although the movement is done with the hands solely, it affects the forearms, legs. and in fact is felt all over the hody. It prepares and tunes up ms | whole body for the swing. It seems as difficult to hit a golf ball without | a waggle as 'it does to pitch a hase-! ball without a windup. Before one | set of muscles can he set in opera- | tion, others have to be prepared, | and this seems to he the purpose of | the waggle, If one holds the club about they middle of the grip, the exposed part in making the waggle should pass under both wrists. If the end ofl the shaft hits the wrists the waggle | is wrong. In general terms, anal- ysis of the movements of the wag- gle shows that the right hand breaks at the wrist joint, whereas the left does not break at the wrist joint, | but turns at the elbow or is a fore | arm movement. The movements of | the waggle are practically those of the swing proper, with this qualifi- | cation, that in the waggle they are) more acute, covering a smaller are| than .that of the complete swing. The | swing should he commenced imme- | liately after the waggle finished, otherwise any henefit of the waggle will be lost. In fact the waggle and | the swing are to be thought one continuous movement In the swing proper one is =om - times adyised to turn the face of the citih away from the ball immediate ly. This is dangerous advice 11 the left hand is held midway oh the shaft, of perhaps better still, with the knuckles of the first and second fingers visible to their owner, the| less one turns the face of the elub | the better. In the waggle the left forearm turns sharply, but in the swing prpper this turning of the forearm is small, and is dis tributed over the whole back--=wing. In the first foot of the | back swing the face of the club goes back almost square to the ball, and | as the club face must be square to | the hall at impaet, prudence would | is of as | TH OMPSON, AMATEUR CHAMPION F CANADA. | de Essentials away as little as possible, If one examines the left hand at the ad- dress (where the first two knuckles are visible and then examines it at the top of the swing, very little dif ference is noted, At the top of the hack swing the left hund hreaks a little at the wrist to allow the elub to get into a hitting position behind the head. The movement of the right and arm is somewhat different. The right arm breaks at the elbow and slips around the body. At the same time the right hand breaks at the wrist in the movement which is known as extension. This move: ment should he called a flick is top. when there is also a further movement similar to that of the left hand, usually called ahduction, which simply means that both hands break at the wrists, wnich permits the club to fall in behind the head at the top of the swing. In the down swing the left arm, which is practically straight, has lit- tle to do but remain this way and do all it can to make the swing of the club swift As pointed out hy Mr. Croome, the more the left avg and the club shalt are able to fori one straight line all times, the better, The right hand stays in its extend- ed position until the last couple of feet of the swing before impact, when the reversing of the extended right hand speeds up the swing ma- terially This 'movement is often scribed as the flick of the wrists The left arm is practically straight | long before this, and why the move- ment should he called a flick is hard to understand, for it is simply the natural reversing of the right hand. There should be no conscious | turning over of the right forearm at impact unless one wishes to smother the ball. The face of the club must meet the ball squarely Do not try to make the ve more difficult by | artificially tunring the forearms. for in the swings of experts little of this ent hand ga is pin What happens after impact is of very little consequence except that | relaxation should take place natur- ally. Remember that it is the speed with which the elub head is trave ling at impact that is the important point, and anything which increases this is to be encouraged If one learns to wag and then, commences the swing per immediately thereafter in ¢ gle properly, | pro- the ance, | cellent address, and soios were ren- | dered by Miss Annie Ford, Toronto, GREYBIRDS WIN / EXHIBITION GAME Lindsay Greybirds opened the sea- son at home Tuesday afternoon with an exhibition game against Uxbridge, the Greybirds winning by 11 to 3, Oulette, on the rubber for Lindsay, was in old-time form.
