THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, MAY 26. 1931 [2[SPORT PAGE] Oshawa Tennis Club Is Entered In Strong Toronto Tennis League Oshawa Tennis Club Makes Still Another Step For- ward--Entered in One of tario's Strongest Ten- nis Leagues--Team Tra- vels to Humber Valley for First Game on Thurs- day Not satisfied with a big increase in membership and the addition of several new clay courts, the Osh- awa Tennis Club is making still an- other step forward in the season of 1931 and now they have stepped up into a league which "is generally granted to provide the keenest and fastest competition in Ontario Ten- nis. Last year the Oshawa Tennis Club was entered in the League known as the Central Ontario Lea- gue, consisting of Campbellford, Belleville and other eastern towns. The Oshawa Club captured the honors last season and this year they have been accepted into the Toronto Tennis League, one of the finest Tennis leagues in existence in Canada. The competition in this league is of very high calibre and the Osh- awa Club feels honored to be ac-|. cepted but they are modestly sure of being able to provide adequate opposition to all entries. With such players as Eric Vesey the Club champion, Oshawa should rank high in the league standing. The teams included in the League are: Canadian National Rys., Broad- view, Rusholme, St. Clements, Hum- ber Valley, Parkdale Canoe Club, Canada Life Assurance and Osh- awa. Rusholme and Broadview were 'the finalists last season with the former club winning the Cham- pionship. The Oshawa Club visits Humber Valley on Thursday for the first set of games and last year's champions, Rusholme, will be the first guests of the local Club, visiting Oshawa on Tuesday, June 2.

Toronto Is Entered In Box Lacrosse Montreal, May 26--A constitu- tion and by-laws were drawn up and adopted and franchises allot- ted at the organization meeting of the International Professional La- crosse League held here Sunday, Franchises were awarded to Mon- treal Canadians, Montreal Maroons, Toronto and New York. The Rules Committee adopted a draft of the new playing regula- tions. Playing sticks will be uni- form in length, the goal net will be 5 feet high and 5 feet wide, a foot smaller than the usual nets, and the teams will be composed of seven men, with four substitutes, instead of the usual twelve-man line-up. With the exception of New York, where the games will be played in baseball 'stadiums, all the games will be played indoors on a playing field approximately the size of a hockey rink and much smaller than the regular lacrosse fields. The games will last an hour, with inter missions, as in hockey. Carol was suddenly homesick mistaking the feeling. Why not go home for the week-end? But this was Friday, and she had no time to writs. Why, thought Carol, I can tele- phone! And in a few moments happy arrangements were being made over Long Distance. Parkdale | KING'S PLATE . SHOWING AT REGENT THEATRE Some splendid scenes of the historic running of the 's Plate at the Wood- bine on Saturday last, were flashed on the Regent screen at all performances yester- day.

Leafs Lose Two More To Wings Toronto, May 26 26.~ --Showiug lit- tle hitting power and much less fighting spirit, the tobogganing Maple Leafs slipped down to sev- enth place in the International League standing yesterday by losing the holiday bill of two games to Rochester by scores of 3 to 0and 6 to 1. It was the closing series of a long home stand which was marked by more defeats than victories, The Red" Wings, by virtue of yesterday's victories took the series by three games to one, and moved up ahead of the Leafs. The only series the Leafs have taken in the five played here to date was against the tail-end Reading Keys. Both of yesterday's games were lack-lustre affairs from a Toronto standpoint. About 1,500 fans saw the morning game and about 4,000 attented in the ai- ternoon. In the morning contest Art Smith served up a fairly good brand of pitching and of the three runs the Wings scored two might have been avoided had "Bucky" Burke hustled over to second base in the third inning wiia a double play in sight. Burke's lapse failed to retire anybody and two runs came in after that. Burke was wot in the afternoon game, Moorehart replacing him. CHW is Carmen Hill, the bespectacled pitcher, limited the locals to sev- en hits in the forenoon encounter and his strength with men on bases kept the Leafs from scor- ing. Their hits came inostly when the bases were unoccupiea. In the afternoon game Ira Smith held the Leafs to six hits and deserved a shutout. The only Toronto run came fn tne third, when Jordan and Pucecinel- li failed to get up to a looper in- to right field by Ken Strong which went for a double and scored Joe Harris from first base, there be- ing two out at the time, and Har- ris being not obstructed by the possibility of a catch. Elon Hogsett the Indian pit- cher, who defeated the Red Wings in the series opener, yield- ed nine hits, but the Wings bunched two in the first inning with an error, and clustered four in the fourth, a double Ly Ira Smith, his first of the two hejng|® | Corinthians Get Finish Froth Blower Captures / King's Plate By Fine In Great Race Froth Blower, Owned by W. R. Cowie of Weston, Wins Historic King's Plate -- Bronze Takes Second and R. S. Mec- Laughlin's Skygazer Is Third -- 15,000 Attend Races Toronto, May 26. --~Enter the name of Froth Blower in the equine hall of fame, for on Saturday R. W. R. Cowie's brown colt won the sevén- ty-second running of the historic King's Plate and conquered his field so decisively that he left no room for argument. Superbly rid- den by Jockey Frankie Mann, the gallant son of Cudgel gnd Chryso- beril won 1931's feature race, beat- ing Bronze across the finish fing by three lengths. In accord with tradition the King's representative witnessed the classic contest and personally pre- sented the Hophy to the proud and happy owne "They're off 1" The jockeys went to the whips fo gain that precious rail position, and out of the pack came Skygazer, with Kirkland Post in second place, and Freethin- ker third, running on the outside of the field. Closely bunched they thundered past the judges' stand, with Froth Blower fourth and being held slightly in restraint. Skygazer, considered an outsider, clung tena- ciously to the pace-setting position and defied all efforts to overhaul her. She had a lot of speed, and Jockey Phillips made a great ef- fort to gain a commanding lead. Entering the home stretch Skygazer was still ahead, but Mann made his move at this stage, and Froth Blow- er, the favorite, responded with a great burst of speed. . | R. 8.

Skygazer Jed until the home stretch but was beaten out by Froth Blower, the winner and Bronze. Scher- zando, another entry from Parkwood Stables, placed sec- ond in the third race at the Woodbine yesterday afternoon, being beaten by Toe Dance, from the Seagram Stables. Schezando paid 58 to 2. Froth Blower in Command It was all over then. Froth Blow- er, rated as one of the best Cana- dian-breds of all time, made it a one-horse. race, He passed the courageous Skygazer, and it ap- peared that the latter would take the "place." But Bronze had dif- ferent ideas, and he came up rapid. ly to nose out R. S.

Forced to Play a Game on a Field Which Had Previously Been Called "Unplayable" In a Major League game at farlscourt Park, Toronto, on Sat- urday, Nats took the short end of a 2-0 score. The first game was off owing to bad ground, but the ref at the second game declared the ground playable. If. through monetary ends, a referee is ai- Jowed to declare a ground play- able, it is high time the Assocla- tion took some steps to stop this conduct. The referee in the first game declared the groupd un- playable, but for some reason or other, the referee in the Nats. 3309 declared the ground play- le. In a ground of mud and water the most damaging blow in that inning. the team kicked off. Oshawa Nationals Lose To Earlscourt Cor. 2-0 It was end to end play for the first ten minutes, then the Nats took up the offensive and held the play in the Earlscourt end for the remainder of the half. From any angle it was a pood game owing to the condition of the ground. At half time there was no scoring, The Nats. were far above the home team but could not score. At times the players were stuck in the nnd and could not get out. When the first goal was scored Herdman had the ball covered but could not get back and a dropping ball went into the net. Nats. were pressing hard but could not get past Gaw, The second goal came from a cross shot, Porter got possession and scored the only Teal goal of the game. On two occasions Nats struck the up- right but could not finish, Herd- man in the Nats goal was in great form. and saved his second penalty in two weeks. The refer- eeing was disgraceful end un- til a better board of referees are got, football in the T, & D, will suffer.

Les Sweetland went the route for the Cubs to win his third victory of the season. The Pirates scored two runs in Davidson, the third, due to Lloyd Waner's double, but the Cubs came back and got two on and came home when Stephenson singled. From then on the Cubs pounded the Pirate pitchers at will, with Hornsby getting another double, Grimm a triple and Moore a home run, ST. SIMON'S WIN EX. VICTORY FROM NIAGARA FALLS, 3:2 Niagara Falls, Ont., May 26.-- Some 500 fans gathered at Oakes Field here yesterday and wit- nessed a very interesting lacrosse exhibition, when St. Simon's of Toronto, scored a 3-to-2 victory over the Niagara Falls team. The score is a very good indication of the relative strength of the teams. The locals had most cf the play and threw away many glorious chances by wild shoot- ing, while Goaler Budd in the An- glican's net made man tional saves. The su of the Saints can be attributed to 'he fact that they made better use of their fewer opportunities and shqwed superior knowledge of "inside" lacrosse. It is my aim to make my il think for themselves. One d: ii si was trying to make them deduce the meaning of "Transcend." To the question, "What does as. cend mean?" I received the correct reply, "Go up." "Descend," they informed me, was "go down." So, coming to the crucial Joint, I de- manded: "Then what does "trans- cend' mean?" One boy became wild] excited so I asked him to reply.
