(boys 17 and Lloyd Driver's Ability Recognized Under the heading "Canadian Has Enviable Group of "Trophies" the fol- lowing appears in "Yard and Shop News" in the current issue of Amer- ican Motor Boating a widely read magazine published in New York: "Outboard motoring enthusiasts are always interested in the accomplish- ments of drivers of other countries. Of more than usual interest is the group of trophies won during the past season by Fred Gilbert, of Brockville, Canada, Cadet IV, driven by Mr. Gilbert, established a excellent record during the 1928 season. The fact that Canada is producing real drivers and speedboats is attested to by the enviable record of Mr. Gilbert, who ran rampant during the 1928 season, capturing a goodly num- ber of firsts and accumulating a total of ten trophies. Three of the tro- phies included in the group won by Mr. Gilbert in both Canadian .and American waters, came to him as a result of setting new course records." - TENNIS -- Open Mixed Doubles Tournament on the Courts of the Oshawa Tennis Club Commencing Tuesday, Aug. 13 iOpen to all players in Oshawa and District ES including Whitby and Bowmanville "ENTRANCE FEE--$1.00 Applications must be forwarded to Mr. Neil Fraser, c-o Grierson & Creighton ON OR BEFORE SATURDAY, AUGUST 10 Oshawa City Wins From C.G.E. In their game with the Cana- dian General Electric the City Team travelled to Toronto on Saj- urday and returned winners by 5 goals to 2, It was pouring with rain when the teams lined up as follows: C.G.E.--Allen, McWhinnie and Boal; Kerr, Mclnnes and Paterson. Neil, W, Boyd, J. Boyd, Roy and Fulton. Oshawa City Lappin; Sturch, Brodie liffe; Dunstall Bailey, I"airley and Purdy. Oshawa lost the toss and kicked off. The home team went up and faced a corner. This was cleared and the City had a spell of attack- ing and faced a corner. Sturch shot but the goalie saved, but another corner was forced. This was clear- ed but the City still pressed and Purdy put over. The home team then attacked and King ran out but handled outside th& area. The resultant free kick was not put to any use and the ball went to mid- field. Hands against C.G.E. was threatening Bailey heading against the bar but the ball was scrambled away. A second later Dunstall hit the bar and Purdy captured and transferred to Lobban who opened the scoring. From the kick off the City again went down and Fairley added number two. The home team then woke up and King had to have a hot one and in the melee round goal the ball was handled. From the resultant penalty C.G.E. scored. The City again pressed and the home goalie made some nice saves from Lobban and Bailey. Half time arrived with Dunstall just shooting over. From the kick off Lobban went through and just missed." Some midfield play then occurred and the home team went through to equalize whilst the City feam stopped appealing for a foul. With the score tied the City boys went to it and Lobban following up a pass headed into the net. Three minutes later Fairley hit the bar and from the rebound Lobban added number four. From then to the end it was all Oshawa and it was no surprise when Bailey added number five, The game ended with the ball round the home goal. Oshawa City vs. Congasco Played on Monday at Alexandra Park the home team lost by three goals to one. The teams were: Oshawa' City--King; Lappin and Sturch; Currie, Brodie and Cun- liffe; Dunstall, Bailey, Lobban, Fairley and Purdy. Congasco--Tapper; Cameron; Marsh, Hall ston; Snoden, Michell, Barr and Jones. The City team wre against the wind in the first half and it was not long before the visitors had the ball in the net. However the home - team played up well and Lobban equalized. Play was from end to end throughout the half. At half time Lappin retired with a broken collar bone and the home team reorganized. Although with only ten men the homesters put up a good performance and for the first twenty minutes of the half they were bombarding the visiting goal, Although the goalie made some good saves the homesters should have found the net on sev- eral occasions, their shooting being wild when favorably placed. The visitors eventually relieved the pressure and hroke away and scored. From then on they had more of the game and soon scored their third. The City tried hard towards the end but could not overcome their deficit and the end of the game came With the score unaltered.

Smith, Henderson and Clark making this gecore. The whole side was our ov 11, Train being six not out. N. Merrick's side did much bet- ter, but their score was not out of the ordinary. Philips, the 'ast bowler, got to work quickly, and mowed down two wickets in the first over. J. Chappell and E.| Chapell made a stand which wa | responsible for more than half of their side's score. N. Merrick play ed a sound innings, making sixteen before being bowled by Train.

Oshawa Nationals 'Win Game 5 to 0 Oshawa Nationals went further ahead in quest for the Major Lea- gue championship when they de- feated Toronto Lancashires 5 to 0, at 'the Motor City Stadium on Sat- urday. Lancashire won the toss and Sathrang kicked off. Play was immediately carried into the Lancs. area and the game had not gone far when Nats scored. Petterson giving the Lancs. goaltender no chance. The Lancs. now set out to ecqualize and made several danger- unos raids on the Nats goal, but without effect. Nats now took up the offensive and went further ahead when Sathrang put in the second goal of the game. Natd were showing good football and the Lancs defence guessing all the time. About this time Nats were awarded a penalty and Sathrang. taking the kick shot straight at the goaltender who saved well Lancs were nearly always on the defensive and could not get their forwards going. Nats were much the superiar team and before half time put in a third goal, Petterson again countihg. Half time score-- Nats 3; Lancs, 0. Second half opened with Nats again attaching. The Lancs de- fence were getting plenty of work land it was evident they could not "hold out the strong Nats forwards. The fourth goal of the game was scored through Hurst, who let go from 25 yards and gave the Lancs goal-keeper no chance. It was all over now as far as theg ame was concerned Nats doing just as they liked. Abeut this time Petterson was badly injured and had to be carried to the dressing rooms rtor treatment. Nats were now playing |a man short but even at that the Lancs could make nothing or it. A little bad feeling crept into the game when the Lancs left back started foul tactics and it was this player who caused the retirement {of Petterson, who up to that time {had been playing a great game. Nats fifth goal was scored through Sathprang who went throuugh and beat the Lancs goalie for the fifth and last goal of the game. Play continued to time with Nats press- ing. Final score--Nats 5, Lancs 0. Nationals--Smith, Conners, Ful- lerton, Hurst, Coll, Hagan, Drake, Petterson, Sathrang, McLatchie, | Davidson. Referee--Taylor, Toronto. All National players report to- night at Motor City Stadium at 7 p.m. for training. SPORT SNAPSHOTS selarif Er -- --_ Six rinks from the Oshawa Bowling Club visited Bowmanville at 2 tournament there and in all their games provided plenty of opposition for their opponents with four rinks going into the final games and the rink skipped by E. Goodman winning the Goodyear trophy. In the final game Goodman defeated J, Kennedy of Uxbridge 16 to 4 to win the coveted trophy, his team mates were A. Kidd, T. Johns, W, Goold. The other Oshawa rinks were skipped by the following: Messrs, Mor- rison, Stenhouse, Peacock, Swanson and Thomson. The lacrosse loops have now reached the playoff stage and the senior and inter iate series moguls will be busy preparing the arrangements for the games in both series and while they are doing this two Oshawa team managers are preparing their teams for some tough battles in hopes of continuing further in the hunt for lacrosse laurels. Due to their strong come back and win in Toronto on Friday when the Oshawa intermediates overcame a one goal lead and defeated the Oakwood grads for the second place position, the locals are now booked to meet Buffalo who have been standing by all season. The dates of these games althotigh not certain will likely be the next two Saturdays and the following Wednesday, the Wednesday game will not be played unless necessary. In the other intermediate group Fergus and Hamilton play- off for the group honors and these games will likely be played on the same dates. The Brampton Excelsiors won the right to dictate terms in so far as the whereabouts of the games in the senior playoffs when they defeated the Oshawa General Motors here yesterday by one goal in an exciting game, These games too will be played on August 10th, 17th and 2lst, if necessary, and the first game will in all probability be staged at the Alexandra Park pitch next Saturday. Every time these teams have met they have provided the fans with real action and smart lacrosse and the crowd that will attend the finals will exceed all records as the entire Ontario lacrosse wold is awaiting these games. Two of the girls teams operating in the league that has been supply- ing Oshawa and Whitby fans with their quota of girls baseball won their exhibition games on the holiday, the Whitby Rovers winning the tournament at Port Perry defeating some smart teams from Toronto leagues *while the Chev ludies trinmed the Owen Sound Greys at Flesherton in a friendly game. In doing this the Chevs impressed the fans in no small way when they played snappy ball from the start slapping out a goodly share of homers and pleting one ption- ally smart triple play, their first of the season. The strength of the Kingston entry in the Central Ontario league wa was indicated yesterday and the Oshawa team will know just what they are up against (providing they reach the desired position in the race ahead of Deloro who is running them a close heat for the second place) when they visited Kingston for a morning and afternoon bill winning both' of their games, Pitching efforts of the local moundsmen and the hitting of the Motors batters, both weak and heavy featured the games. There has been plenty of tough luck dogging the local pitchers on the senior ball team and they have lost games when they did not deserve to have a loss chalked up against them, the reason for this is only clear to the ball players themselves and they well know that they have not during the past season been supporting their pitchers as well | as they can. With the season fast drawing to a close and the race for a playoff berth the closest in many seasons the players are now con- .vinced that their hurlers will get all the backing that is coming to them as they are all of them going to play ball and after seeing the erstwhile "darkhorses" in action they now think that they will not only be able to get to them but will do nothing else but. And while the baseball and lacrosse leagues are nearing the finals. in their groups there is a small band of athletes that are preparing for the annual training grind for the purpose of getting into condition. This band of men will be in condition too, if all that is in the offing plans out as promised, they are the General Motor Rugby Footfall squad and they will start active proceedings and light training right after the big picnic next Saturday. The picnic marks the last of the "whoopee" making for this squad and after that date the gang will go quictly about the business ot preparing and building of a team that will hold its own in the inter- mediate O.R.F.U, race. The new players on hand can not be ascertained until after prev: tices are called but there" Mes bem a number of enquiriés regarding the date of the first of these practices and Charney of Balmy Beach seniors who has been in Oshawa all summer is on the look out for some one to kick the ball around with in order to get the feel of it. He is not the only onc that is anxious either as last year's entire squad feel the same way. ; The Executive and players of the Oshawa City Intermediate Lacrosse club wish to thank the Oshawa Nationals Football Club for their kindness and co-operation in offering the services of their excellent trainer Mr, Geo. Eason, . That's real spirit.
