Minus the services of such regulars as; Wilf.

Their play was rough and .crude, in fact at times very dirty last night. With the "Cokes" refusing to back up, the result was 8 host of penalties and most of the goals were scored when the teams were short-handed. The big "catch" was that Oshawa were given more penalties than the Yorkers -- due, we think, to the fact that the ref- eree usually saw the Oshawa player "striking back" but had failed to see the' first blow. Oshawa were blanked 4-0 in the first period snd that early lead won the game for the homesters. Coca-Colas held their own~in the second, outscored East York in the third and then faded:ragain in the fourth, when more 'Pénalties paved the way for easy goals.

Parkdale Der- bys played a 0-0, 8-inning game with Riverdale Grads last night in their "City Series". It shows the smart defensive ball the Derbys are playing just now and Oshawa fans can expect a real display en Saturday, when the Derbys visit here. * + @ Manager 'Peg" Hurst and Coach Tracy Shaw will have to fill Dolly Dalton's shoes at shortstop as the little infielder is out again for two weeks or more, having again wrenched his bad knee. Maxie Yourth will likely get the call. The other members of the infield will have to brush up, too.

"Steamer" Lucas or perhaps "Jake" Biddle will do the hurling for Oshawa tomorrow. ' Either way, it'll be a popular choice and with good weather, a big crowd is expect- ed in the grandstand.

After going around the course twice, buoys to port, there was such an influx of protests objecting to the starting time of the judge's watch which unknowingly had stopped during the five-minute preparatory period that it was de- cided to re-run the entire race and hus save argument on everyone's part.

The hole, which ranges from 100 to 125 yards in length, according to where the markers are set, has proved exceptionally p with players. In previous Canadian Opens there have been some 8 opujar pecial added features, including long driving competitions, and it has been announced that this year there will be a special "19th hole" event on the Thursday and Friday. On each of these days every player in the field which is competing for the Seagram Gold Cup and first prize of $1,000, will play one shot from the 19th tee to the green. On each day there will be two prizes, for the two players who place their ball closest to the centre of the cup. There .will be no putting out; the player plays his shot and by the time he reaches the green the distance from the pin will have been measured and his ball returned to him, | gold, sliver and bronze medals and will be well worth winning.
