PAGE FOUR ™"C OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1022, a d-- 'Sporting World News Fittings Wallop - Textile Nine Losers' Fielding Weak and Foley is Given Miserable Support Apart from making ten errors in the field and not fielding one or two rollers which should have heen easy outs, Textiles gave a very good exhi- bition of the way baseball should not be played when they met defeat at the hands of Fittings last evening in a Senior Town League fixture 12 to 3, The support accorded Foley was, to say the least, ragged, while the Fittings' batters touched him for ten safeties, Besides heing weak in the field, the Textiles are woefully weak with the stick and with two and three men on bases they could not muster up enough courage even to bunt the ball, In the third innings the losers made an attempt to drive Fiy from the hox, when tthey secured three hits and two runs, H. Rorabec driv- ing the pill to deep left and making the circuit. The game furnished some excitement up to the end of two and a half innings when the score was a tie, 3-3, but in the last half of the third Fittings grabbed a trio of counters, taking the lead, which they increased as the game pro- gressed. Textiles are handicapped for twirlers, Foley being the only hurler Manager Tharan can send to the mound, and he cannot hope to pitch every game throughout the season as he has for the past few weeks. Fittings have two reliable men in Ostler and Fry while Chevrolet have three, Murray, Morrison and Oliver. The Textiles should endeavor to get a line on another boxman who, with Foley, should break into the win col- umn. One of the largest crowds of the season was on hand which goes to show that the fans are willing to support the game if the teams fur- nish some real baseball. The score: Textile Lander, 3b .

PLAYED TO TIE With neither side able to break the 1--1 tie existing, the soccer match between Zion and Ebenezeer in the Sunday school league, which was played at Hampton last night was «<2lled off owing to darkness. The match will be replayed on Tuesday evening at Hampton. The goals last might were scored byRoy Nicholls of the Ebenzeer team while Lloyd McGregor of the Zion cleven scored the other goal of the evening. A re- . port of the game states that it was the best game ever seen in that dis- trict and that the attendance was almost a thousand.

They have won but one game, but they have thrown a scare into every team in the league, The fact that they have been crippled in the last two or three games is also dis- couraging, but fans hope that they will round into shape for the second half and nose out closer to the top of the ladder. Examiner:--The plucky drive made by the Petes in the face of great odds to tie up the Central On tario League race has aroused every real fan in town, and they are all behind the Solomon outfit in their fight. This feeling will be demon- strated on Saturday when the Lea- side team will be here to play a double-header in the Central League series, for it is certain that a record crowd will see the twin bill with "Micky" Murray's gang from the suburbs of the Queen City, Al. Heck- man, whose great pitching has kept the local crew up in the race, is billed to pitch both games, a heavy task, but there is no more willing worker in the Central League than "Heck." "The Chevrolet team, of the Town Baseball League, visited Whitby last evening for an exhibition game with a team representing the Hosp- ital for Insane, Hales Barker's crew won out quite handily 11 to 3, with Murray doing the throwing and Cook receiving. . The Guide.--Here is an opportun- ity of a lifetime for Cobourg to de- monstrate to the sporting world just what true sportsmanship is, and we feel sure they will do it. Play the game today and next Saturday with the same determination as was shown in the Oshawa-Cobourg game of Sat- urday last. If Peterboro or Lindsay can come through with a win, all well and good, we will take off our hats to them, but we do not want to see any fixed battles. Let the old fa- miliar phrase, "play the game," be exemplified. to the letter in the next two important matches, Examiner:--Though Cobourg is out of the running for first place, they are the team that had to be beaten by all the leaders if they were to 'retain their chances for first. Oshawa turned the trick Sat- urday. Peterboro did it Wednesday. Can Lindsay beat them on Satur- day? Examiner: --Edwin Dugan's long drive to right field for three bases, equally timely single in the seventh innings of Wednesday's Central On- tario League game at Riverside Park, chased in the run that enabled the Petes to beat Cobourg, 3 to 2, and thus remain in the race for the first section honors. It was the third suc- cessive win for the Petes and the third loss in a row for the erstwhile leaders who ten days ago were conceded a royal chance to grab off the first section championship. Hamilton Soccer 8 Club Loses Protest Against Guelphites The protest filed by the Hamilton Thistle Club against Taylor-Forbes of Guelph, which team recently de- feated the Hamiltonians in a Con- naught Cup game, was dismissed at an emergent meeting of the D.F.A. held in Hamilton Thursday night. Thistles based their protest on the fact that J. Carter, Guelph's centre- half, had played football outside the jurisdiction of the O.F.A., but it was shown that Carter, who came under the jurisdiction of the provincial as- sociation on June 3, of the presemt year, had not committed any offence since that date. Documentary evi- dence was submitted by the Thistles. which showed that the player in ques- tion had played for the border Ath- letic Club, which is affiliated with the United States Football Associa- tion. Joe Wallace and Alex Wands appeared on behalf of the Thistles and J. F. Marr and D. Wilson were present in the interests of Guelph. | The committee which heard the pro- test consisted of N. J. Howard and Tom Holland of Toronto, and James Hutcheon, of Brantford. The decision reached means that Taylor-Forbes will play Oshawa in the semi-final of the Connaught Cup at Guelph on Saturday, and the Guelph delegates were notified to this effect to-night. The winners meet Ulster in the provincial final on Mon- day might in Toronto. Oshawa May Be Undisputed Head of League By To-Night There is a possibility that the first halt of the Central League schedule will come to a close this afternoon, as three games are being played which could put both Peterboro and Lindsay out of the running. The Greybirds are fighting it out with Cobourg in the Ferry Town, while George Peacock's Athletics from Leaside play a double bill at River- side Park with Jake Solomon's Petes, Should Lindsay lose and Peterboro deep one of the games to the Pea- cocks, Oshawa will be in undisputed possession of the first half champion- ship. Intense interest is being taken by local fans in the results of these fixtures, Oshawa baseball fans, unless they travel to Cobourg or Peterboro will not have the opportunity of seeing a Central League game to-day. Bert Booth's tribe were idle Wednesday, and again to-day and will be pos- sibly all next week. However, the boys wander up to the ball park every evening for fielding and bat- ting practise so that a rest should not affect them in the least, PLAYING IN GUELPH TODAY Oshawa's Connaught Cup Soccer team was notified yesterday to pro- ceed to Guelph to-day to play in the semi-finals there against a Royal City team. If the local footballers are successful in their quest to-day, they will then proceed to Toronto on Monday and engage a Toronto team in the finals for this province, The finals for the Cup itself will be played in Montreal towards the close of this month, when two games will be run off, TOWN LEAGUE STANDING a - Won Lost P.C. 875 714 286 A256 Fittings Chevrolet f Cedar Dale ,.,....., 2 Last Night's Game Fittings, 12; Textile, 2.

Peterboro Wins Its Protest of the Belleville Game The sub-committee of the Central Ontario Baseball League met in the Queen's Hotel, Port Hope, Thursday afternoon to deal with the protest of Peterboro over the tie game with Belleville on Wednesday, July 5th, in which Swanston, of Peterboro, got a walk and a runner on second started to steal third as the pitcher delivered the fourth ball to the batter, The Belleville catcher made a wild heave to third and the runner scored, The league umpire called Swanston out for not touching first base before ad- vancing and refused to allow the score, The sub-committee awarded the game to Peterboro by a four to three score on the following grounds: First--Belleville entered no de- fence as required by the Central League constitution, Second -- On four balls batter is entitled to first hase without liability to be put out, Third--Run did not score on play at first hase, but on poor throw to third base, Whattam Cup Back in Oshawa Although matches for the What- tam Challenge Cup only commenced last week, this coveted trophy has already changed hands three times and is now in the possession of D, A. J. Swanson's rink. A Bowmanville rink journeyed to Peterboro and brought it to the Hosiery Town, only 0 lose it to Greenwood"s rink of Whitby by default. D. A. J. Swan- son's quartette visited the County Town and were victorious in their mateh with Greenwood, so that the handsome cup is back again from where it went forth early last sea- son. Mr. Swanson took his rink to To- ronto this afternoon to take part in the annual bowling tournament of the Withrow Bowling Club. He will play his first match with G. Holmes of Withrow Park. Mr. Swanson, to gether with three other rinks, will participate in the Peterboro tourna- ment on Wednesday and Thursday of next week, Second Group of Boys Under Canvas Oshawa Rotarians last night mo- tored the second group of boys who will spend ten days under canvas, out to Darlington Beach, and as a re- turn load brought back with them those youths who had spent the first ten days in camp.
