Dyer, Peterborough, win- ning with J. Dunkerly and W. Binks, and the bowling of G. Dewberry and G. Mann. J. Dunk- erley hit the first ball to the boundary for a 4 and the third ball for a 2, the fourth ball of the same over he was smartly caught Dy G. Mann. F. Dyer fol- lowed and hit a ball from G. Mann for a 4. Binks was playing steadily until he put his leg in front of one from Mann and was out after scoring 6. F. Smith took his place, Dyer at the other end endeavored to hit one out of the oval, but was caught out by J. Chappell. At this stage of the gafme it was looking black for the locals with 3 wickets cdewn and only 17 runs on the board. However, R. Mawhood went in with the determination to stop the riet and played cautious- ly for a time, being content to score singles. Oshawa tried five different bowlers but could not part this pair until Whitfield sent down a pitched ball to R. Mawhood who played back, but was too la'e, the ball hitting the leg wicket, his contribution to the score be. ing 39, it was a splendid partner- ship, the pair had taken the score from 17 to 98. A. Hamilton was out on the second ball. F. Jeffér- son stayed long enough toc get 10. F. Smith was caught out by G.

Kyne's I Thrilling Novel "NEVER THE TWAIN SHALL MEET" -- Coming Friday -- "SPORTING BLOOD" GOLF GPORT SNAPSHOTS P30] Tannery Lost to Long Branch The Robson Tannery team, winners of the South Ontario League, proved to be no match for the fast Long Branch team: in their game in Long Branch last night and lost by 18 to 7, The Tannery were forced to use two pitchers who yielded nineteen hits. The Oshawa team made the game close until the fifth inning when they were within one run of their opponents but after that they were very much out of the picture with the Long Branch team taking a big lead. H. McDonald and Branton were the best for the Tannery. * » * » Orono Ramblers Here on Saturday Even though they lost to the Peterborough C.G.E. team in the Lift- lock city last Saturday by a score of 9 to 1, the Orono Ramblers, headed by Orme Gamsby, are determined to make a last stand and force the series to three games. Orme states that he will win the game here on Saturday and eventually win out in the series. On the other hand the Peterborough team are just as confident of taking the game and the series. If that is the case they think that they will have easy sailing in the next couple of rounds of the playoffs. Orme claims to have an ace in the hole and may spring a big suprise on the C.G.E. team. * »* * * Falcons in Brampton To-day Falcons will have the first test of the 1931 season to-night when they face the winner of the Brampton town league in the Flower Town. The Brampton team are reputed to have a strong lineup and are also said to have a heavy hitting team. It has been the wish of the Oshawa league to have a winning team for the last couple of years but just when things seemed to be going fine they were climinated. If they can pass the Brampton outfit they should go at least two rounds farther as in all probability they will be drawn against an eastern team, - = » - Malleables Win Over Whitby The Whitby Royals, pride of the County Town proved no match for the O.M.I. team last night in a game played at Whitby, The Whitby team are a team of youngsters who are to be commended on their showing this year, While they lost the game last night the Whitby team should not be in the least discouraged as they were matched against a team with far more experience. It is planned to enter the Whitby team in the Oshawa Ladies loop next year. This will bring the loop up to four teams again and enliven the interest in the sport. While it is not expected that they will lead the league in their first attempt they will be gaining much needed experience which will stand them in good stead in the years to follow when the Oshawa teams will be forced to rebuild their teams with new players, : ® * * . Butchers Win Exhibition Game Playing an cxhibition game at the lake last night the Oshawa But- chers: Softball team displayed plenty of beef to deteat the Ukrainians by a score of 21 to 10, The game was featured by the heavy hitting of Marks who plays first base for the Butchers. He hit a home run to enliven the game. w * * . Orme Gamsby Has a Visitor Dr. W. W. Andrews, of Miles City, Montana, is visiting in Orono, at the present time with Orme Gamsby the wily sponsor of the Ramblers, Dr. Andrews is an old professional ball player who broke into the big time with Hamilton Clippers and later played with Buffalo and Kansas City. The doctor who knows his baseball may be persuaded to take a seat on the Orono bench for the game here on Saturday and assist Orme in the management of his team. If such should be the case, the Orono team would have the jump on the Peterborough team in strategy, » = . * Oshawa Tennis Players Advance S, Alger and his, partner, Mr. Michie, advanced to the quarter finals in the doubles of the Toronto and District tourney being played in Toronto yesterday. Armstrong and Willis were drawn against stiff opposition in the seeded team of Tupling and Nilsson and lost out. The match was a credit to the Oshawa pair as they only lost by a score of 6-3, 6-3. McCallum and Young also won out in their match and will play to-day - Mann not out 10. Peterborough was defeated by the small margin of only eight runs. Peterborough J. Dunkerley ..

Total Buffalo, Aug. 26.--The win- ning streak of the Buffalo Bisons bounced to four straight at the stadium last night as they bowl- ed over the Jersey City Skeeter: again by a score of 10 to 3, pro viding a margin of four out of five on the series. The victory lifted the Bisons out of the cel- far and submerged the Skeeters fn the last place, Territic hitting by Marve Ol- gon, who busted a double and two blistering singles, featured the win, Fitzberger also drove in three runs with a double and single off Curt Fullerton. Lefty Micha kept ten Jer- sey hits well separated and curb- ed the Skeets handily with men on bases. Flawless support help ed him over several rough spots, I ---------------- .

County Town -- Losers Committed Many Errors Malleables won at Whitby, 34 to 7. Such was the score at Whitby Town Park last night (Tuesday). The newly-formed county town team just couldn't do anything right against a team they had known so long and well --it was nothing more or less than stage fright--if their oppon- ents had been strangers they would have done better, as they always have. The Malleables showed a complete reversal of form from their last game at Whitby on Saturday evening last, and were going good at all stages of the game. In the second in- ning of last night's game the Roy- als succeeded in retiring the first two batters, but before they re- tired the third Malleable batter eight runs had been scored. No, the Royals are not going to lay by their bats for a while yet; they have several games to play--nor are they downhearted. The Roy- alg thank the Malleables team for their courtesy in playing the game against the newly-formed Whitby team of girls, and once again, let it be known that Whit- by will have a team in the Osh- awa Ladies' League next year. TS CREEPING GIANTS CREEPI UP ON CARDINALS New York, Aug. 26.--Two fine pitching performances by Carl Hubbel] and Jim Chaplin and the lusty hitting of young Mel Ott enabled the Giants to take both games of yesterday's doubleheader from the Chicago Cubs, 5 to 3 and 7 to 1, and stretch their lead over the Horns- by men to five full games, Hubbell allowed only five hits in the opener, but might have lost, at that, had not Ott con- nected for his twenty-fourth homer of the year in the sixth inning with twé aboard. Chaplin hurled steadily De- hind a big lead in the nightcap, Hemsley's home run in the fourth depriving him of a shutout. DRAW ANNGUNCED FOR OPEN DOUBLES TOURNAMENT Good Entry List Received With Last Year's Final- ists Again Entered The play in the Oshawa Tennis Club's men's doubles tournament which is open to clubs in the dis- trict was started last night. It is expected that play will be inter- esting. . The event was won last year by Armstrong and Dr. Mu- len of the Oshawa Tennis Club who played off in the finals with Strike and James of the Bowman- ville Club. Both teams are in the event this year again and may meet in the finals, all being well. The draw is ag follows: 1ST ROUND W. Hicks and K. Kelly (Osh- awa) vs. Anderson and McKenzie (Oshawa).

The Bears came here last Sat- urday leading the circuit by three games but headed for Buf- falo yesterday trailing by a singl percentage point. In games won and lost the teams are dead- locked for the top rung, Willis Eos ooo SWIMMING FOR DISTANCE Training for distance swimming does not vary much from training for the sprints, except, of course, in the distance usually covered in the viater, The ability to swim distances of ten or fifteen miles shows the final perfection of the art of swimming and of the physical fitness of the swimmer, Such lengths should, of course, never be attempted unless at the end of a long period of training, and then not until the swimmer has had the advice of a physician. : I did not take up long distance swiming until comparatively recently, after swimming shorter lengths from the age of five, Those who have been used to speed swimming will find that they tend to swim with the back slightly arched, inorder to ride high in the water. This arch will have to be trained out, as in long distance swimming one rides low in the water, and the slightest arching of the back will quickly cause fatigue. A steady, even pace must be kept, much as you would if you were starting out for a fifteen mile walk on land. The swimmer must learn to relax after every stroke of the arm. This is gained by giving the arm a perceptible pause when the arm reaches the side after downward stroke through the water, and before the arm is brought forward out of the water to the forward position. Without this continual relaxing of the arms after each stroke long distances will be found impossible. The period in the water during training may be extended for three hours daily, half in the morning and half in the afternoon. I do not advise more. than this and, of course one-half should be devoted to a single swim for distance. A liberal covering of grease will tend to offset the enervating qualities of the water, and will act as a protection against' the binding of the muscles from cold THE SWIMMER MUST LEARN TO RELAX AFTER EVERY STROKE TO-MORROW--KEEP GOING their series with Detroit, but 'he Yesterday's contest was a wilted in the ninth and Crowder, pitching duel between Ray Moss and Hub Pruett for seven in- nings, But in the eighth the Wings shoved five runs over the plate on three hits, a walk and an error.

The contest was stud- ded with spectacular fielding. troit pinch hitters to pop flies and the Senators won, 5 to 1. EVEN BREAK FOR REDS Philadelphia, Aug. 26. -- The. Cincinnati Reds divided a double- header with the Phils yesterday, winning the first 8 to 0 and drop- ping the second 1 to 0.
