BE et --------------SS------------ m------------ OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SATURDAY, JUNE 24, 1922 PAGE FIVE pt ---- porting World Ne S Tiutiles Drop Another Game To Chevs, 6-3 Best Game of Season in Town League--Snappy Fielding A Feature Oriental Textile dropped their straight game last evening when they met Chevrolet in a Town League fix- ture at Alexandra Park. Scoring five runs in the second innings the winners took a big lead, which they retained throughout the game, the final score being 6 to 3. Jack Tharen, manager of the Textiles, started in the box because of his regular twirl- er, Foley, being late in arriving at the park. He pitched the first two innings and gave way to Foley in the third, who checked Hales Bar- ker's crew and allowed only two hits and one run in the remaining four frames. In three innings he fanned four batters and had he been able to pitch the whole game, the score would have been much closer, Chasing Leaders Chevrolet are now within half a game of the leaders and when the two teams clash next Wednesday night there is bound to be something doing. This game promises to be the best of the season in the Senior Town League series and the fans are sure to turn out in large numbers. Murray was sent to the mound by Manager Barker and he got along nicely. He allowed six 'hits and struck out six batters. His support, too, was of a high order and the spectators were well pleased with the performance, The class of ball may be easily judged when each team was credited with only two errors. The Textiles delivered their best exhibition of the season and some real baseball may be expect- ed from them. In the second innings the Chevro- let batters got to Jack Tharen's shoots for seven hits, which netted them five runs but they failed to re- gister again until the sixth when Pe- trie dropped Blanchard's fly allow- ing the runner to get around to third and score later on a sacrifice. In the third, fourth and fifth the Chevs could do nothing with Foley's slants, He fanned two in the third, one in the fourth and retired the side in the fifth the same way. Had Petrie held on to Blanchard's fly, he would have held his opponents runless in the last four frames. Stage Double Play The Textiles did not cross plate until the fifth when they bunched three of their hits. They added two in the sixth when Tharen got a life through an error and Braund followed with a three base $9allop. The latter scored on a sin- e. Their last run came in the seventh when Kellow drew four balls, advanced to second on a balk, took third on a passed ball and scor- ed when Smith hit a hard one to short. A fast double play stopped Textiles' rally. With Smith on sec- ond, Petrie lined out to Braund who doubled Smith at second. Good fielding was the feature of the game while the twirlers were in good form. It was one of the best contests staged this, yeal' and by keeping the brand of ball up to that standard, these games promise to gain in popularity. The teams were: Chevrolet--Hipwell, rf; Murray, p; Pellow, ss; Cook, ¢; Braund 3b; Hall, If; Blanchard, If; Oliver, 2b; Morrison, cf C. Hall, 1b. Textile--Kellow, ss; Smith, If; Petrie, cf; Tharan, p; and 3b; Braund, 1b; R. Rorabec, rf; Elliott, 2b; Cooper, c¢; Critney, 3b; Foley, p. Umpires--Wilson and Davis. Schedule For Swimming Classes Following is the schedule for the swimming classes, which the local Y.M.C.A. is holding throughout the summer for all public school boy: over twelve years of age.

The lessons will commence at four o'clock on all days except Sat- urday when they will start at nine o'clock in the morning.

The schedule: -- Monday--King Street school. Tuesday--Mary street school. Thursday--Centre street school. Friday--Albert street school. Saturday--Simecoe street school. the REASON NOT ADEQUATE Hamilton Herald: It is explained that Ambassador Harvey has given up knickerbockers because his legs are so thin. That is not a good rea- son. If it were, the short skirts one sees would be much fewer. Sport Comment Only one game has been played in the Scottish Doubles tournament, C. Simmons and C. Stenhouse having de- feated J. A. Thompson and E. C. Hodgins 20 to 17, An attempt will be made to have it completed before the annual bowling tournament next Saturday. Port Hope Guide: Do you see Co- bourg Smiling? That victory of Lindsay over Oshawa yesterday brought joy to Cobourg and incident- ally gave them the leadership of the league. Jack Oulette was in grand form, and had Bert Booth's men at his mercy. Up to the eighth innings the score wag two all, but a three bagger by Allan brought in the win- ning run, It was a splendid exhibi- tion of ball, and Milt Dedman is as Hicklen as a kid with a circus bal- oon, Oshawa F. C., tackle Telfers in Toronto this afternoon in a second Division Toronto and District soccer match. The Red Shirts are hoping to grab a victory and thus retain the lead in the second section. Before Wednesday's game in Lind- say the Oshawa Central League team had won six straight games and the defeat of Bert Booth's artists in the Northern Town was unexpected. However, it is impossible for any ball team to win every game and to lose a contest similar to that with Lindsay would be no disgrace to any club, The Oshawa boys accepted defeat in a sportsmanlike manner, offering no alibis, and attributing the result to the breaks of the game. A record crowd is anticipated at the Oshawa and Peterboro game this afternoon as the fans are all on edge over the visit of Jake Solomon and his ball team. In comparing the two teams it looks like a pitcher's battle between Heckman and Gallagher and the fans will certainly be pulling for "Teddy," as he is very popular in Oshawa. Glostern, and "Lefty" McDonald, hoth of Toronto, will be the umpires for this afternoon's Central League attraction at Alexandra Park. When some of the officials of the Oshawa Baseball Club visited the ball park last evening to watch the Cen- tral League players practice, they found that some 'good sport' had stolen about half the rope used on the flag pole for hoisting the Central League pennant just before ball games. The Club is now forced to purchase a new rope and also to in- duce some ambitious youngster to climb the pole after the remainder of the old rope and put the new one into place. Whoever committed the theft was apparently not a person with sporting instincts and the Club are offering a reward of $10 fo any information concerning the cul- prit. Protested Game Only To Be Replayed If Standing Is Affected The Lindsay-Peterboro game, which was protested by the latter club and delt with Thursday by the sub-com- mittee of the Central Ontario League, will be counted as if not played. Lindsay, by reason of the committee's decision, have now only won 5 games and lost 3, and are at the tail-end of the first division, while Peterboro are in third place. In dealing with the protest the committe merely enforced rule 54. The play in question was when the Lindsay short stop, in making 2 play to first base struck the base umpire with the ball, and a Peter- boro runner on second base scored. The umpire-in-chief ordered the run- ner back to third, which, according to the rules, was not correct. The side was retired without further scoring, Lindsay winning by one run. Unless the result of this game affects the championship of the first half, it will not be replayed, as if a replay is necessary the gate receipts will be evenly divided between the two teams and the League. Those present at the meeting were: --President E. Par- sons, Past President, S. Lockington, Past President A. C. Kimmell, F. D. Craig, and Secretary J. G. Nott.

Belleville Qua swe A letter ha been received by the Lindsay Club from the Secretary of the Bowmanville Baseball Club suggesting that the Bowmanville-- Lindsay game be played im Lindsay on the day of the big Orange cele- bration, namely July 12th, instead of July 5th. This would give the boys from he rubber factory town an oppor- tunity of accompanying a large num- ber of their Orangemen to Lindsay, as they anticipate doing, apd would also give the players an opportunity of participating in the celebration of the Twelfth. The probability is that Bowman- ville t be ac dated in the request as the Greybirds expect to be playing either a postponed game with Cobourg, or a game in tile sec- Oshawa Cannot Afford to Lose Another Game Locals Must Play Four More Games in First Half of Schedule Much depends on the result of the Central Ontario League fixture at Alexandra Park this afternoon with Peterboro. Oshawa have four games yet to play in the first half, includ- ing the one to-day and they cannot afford to lose a single contest. While Cobourg and Lindsay may meet de- feat by some of the weaker teams, the race is so close that a team can take no chances. After taking on the Petes to-day,Oshawa will play two games in a row away from home. Next Wednesday they go to Bowmanville to take a second glimpse at G., O. Patterson's new- comers, On Saturday, July 1st, Port Hope will be the scene of activities and no doubt Johnny Rowden's crew will be anxious to make the big Do- minion Day celebration as success- ful as possible, Port Hope are en- deavoring to 'secure the services of the Ontario County Regimental Band for the occasion and the strains of their marches should inspire Bert Booth's 1921 champions to overcome any little obstacles they might en- counter, Cohourg are leading the league by a very small margin and they are picked to win the game this after- noon at home with Port Hope, but you never can tell when Reg Fair will open up with the willow and then look out Mr. Derry. Oshawa received a surprise when they met defeat in Port Hope last year when the championship was at stake and Cobourg may not have matters all their own way. Cobourg do not visit Oshawa until Saturday, July 8th and then the real test will he at hand. Judging from the standing of the league at the present time, this game will just about decide which team will have the right to figure in the finals at the close of the =eccond half. With the class of ball hecom- ing faster, the fans will surely -sec some brilliant games from now on. Lindsay Liked Wednesday's Game | The Lindsay Post has the follow- ing to say of the Oshawa--Lindsay | game of last Wednesday when Lind- | say won out by a score of 3 to 2. The Cobourg protest having fail- ed, the Greybirds decided that the only thing left for them to do with Oshawa was to beat them and do hi to the satisfaction of all, So they waded right into the visitors yester- day afternoen and defeated them-- | Gentle and pleasant to take, Gallagher and all--without question in a game that was quick, snappy and clean all the way. -The crowd could want no better exhibition of ball from the home tgam. Every man played his position well and the hits_ were handed out at just the op- portune time in every case. With Oulette on first after a walk In the third, the Birds came from behind to tie the score when Brownscombe raised a heavy smash to the race track. Oulette scored from first but fast fielding of the hit held Browns- combe at second. Again in the hole in the sixth, Lindsay scored a run on a balk. In his wind-up Gallagher dropped the ball while on the rubber. Umpire Kay ordered all players to advance a base and Allen, who was on third after a walk, advanced to the home plate, The winning run came in the eighth when with two hands gone Allen sent the ball on a long trip to the race-track for three sacks. Fast fielding robbed him of a home run, hut he scored on an opportune single from Carew, New Tennis Courts Officially Opened The newly organized tennis club of the Pedlar People, office staff pro- mises to be a very active organiza- tion. Tuesday evening last the two new courts just south of the factory were officially opened for the season and a tournament of mixed doubles was run off, Miss M. Harper and Mr. W. E. Clarke being the winners. The courts and surrounding grounds were attractively decorated with flags and bunting giving the new recreation quarters a gay appearance. The tournament commenced shortly after five o'clock and refreshments were served by the young ladies. A sche- dule is being drawn up for games throughout the summer and a very busy but pleasant season is in store for the members of the club. SHILOH STOPS ¢ THAT COUGH For grown-ups or children.
