Down at the Oshawa Arena, on Saturday night, the local lacrossers whipped Weston for the second time .in the week, 16-7 this time, in a game that was exceptionally clean, in fact they didn't even have one penalty in the first two periods and only a few after that.

Keeler hit a triple and a double to drive in Oshawa's first two rilis and Normie Magee's triple drove in another and he scored himself when the throw-in was fumbled. The four members of the Oshawg infield were all sensational, handling a total of 32 chances, in- cluding a couple of smart double-plays, a widee throw to first base. Each one of the four was in great form. Joh!

'GM-COLTS TURN BACK BOWLES LUNCH 4-1 McLaughlin's 4-Hit Pitching Plus Timely Base Hitting hy Keeler and Magee Decide It Dean McLaughlin Edges Murray Dowey in Fine Hurling Duel -- Wes Keeler and Norm Ma- gee Pace Oshawa At- tack -- LaPelley Gets 2 Hits for Visitors -- Has Two Double-Plays Dean McLaughlin's stellar 4-hit pitching performance backed up by a superb display of defensive field- ing by the Oshawa infield, not to mention some timely extra-base hitting by Wes. Keeler and Normie Magee, enabled Oshawa GM-Colts to defeat Bowles Lunch 4-1 here on Saturday afternoon in a scheduled Beaches Major Fastball League fixture. Colts were full value for their "[victory, turning in a brilliant field- ing display to help McLaughlin, who was himself in fine fettle and scattered four safe hits over the distance, as he hand-cuffed the heavy-hitting Bowles Lunch team. Timely Hitting Wins Game Oshawa scored the first run of the game in the first stanza when "Wib" Hall was safe on a bobble by Imrie. Kitchen made a nice bid with a line-drive smash to Benson in right and then with two out, Wes. Keeler poled out a triple, scoring Hall. The late throw-in went to the screen but when Keeler tried to come home, McDowell recovered for a toss to Spring and the runner was just barely nipped at the plate, GM-Colts made it 2-0 in the fourth inning when Hall was again safe on an error, this time when LaPelley dropped a fly ball in left. Kitchen sacrificed Hall to 2nd and then Keeler came through with a double, scoring Hall. Bowles Lunch got their run in the 5th when LaPelley opened the in- ning with a disputed double, a hard-hit ball that landed in front of Hall at 3rd bounced over the baseman's shoulder and went into foul territory before it hit the ground the second time. Umpire Bennett ruled it a fair-ball, as hav- ing gone past 3rd base in fair terri- tory and the Oshawa objections were over-ruled. Dowey flied to Kitchen who came in fast to. make the catch. Then Apps singled with a screeching drive that Keeler got to but couldn't knock down. Little's throw to 2nd held Apps at 1st, while LaPelley scored and on the next pitch, McDowell hit into another pretty double play, Hall-to-Magee- to-Stark. This same combination had pulled off their first twin killing on a similar set up to nip. a Bowles' threat in the 2nd. McLaughlin Hits Stride After that McLaughlin was com- plete master--he didn't walk a man nor allow a single hit after the 5th inning, pitching to only 12 batters in the last four frames, as his mates played perfect ball be- hind him for 10.of the 12 putouts. He fanned. the other two. Murray. Dowey faltered in the 7th with two -out. when Sammy Stark singled and Northie Magee: then tripled into deep left. LaPelley's throw-in was fumbled by Evans and Magee then was able to keep on running to score. McLaughlin had the edge over Dowey throughout, allowing one less safe hit, having two more strikeouts and being at his best in the clutches. : Brilliant Fielding Plays ..... While Wes. Keeler, with his time- ly triple and double and Magee, with his three-bagger, were the scoring heroes for Oshawa, it was the wa infield that stood out in the ive play, along with Mec- Laug! hurling. Hall, at 3rd base, nit only started two classy double ys away but he handled four other chances faultlessly. Wes. Keeler was also a busy man, with three outs and two assists and had only one black mark, a wide throw to 1st. Magee, at 2nd, handled seven plays without an error, including the two double-plays while Stark at 1st base, turned in another one of the brilliant fielding displays that has featured his play for the past three or four weeks. Another for Oshawa was Rjtchen, whd' took over centre-field Oshawa Infield Shines duties. in Young's absence and not only kept his mates alive with his chatter but handled everything that came his way, without a mistake. LePelley, with a single and a double in three trips, got half of the visitors' four hits while Imrie at second played well along with the Bowles' outfield department. Both Joe Spring, Jr. and "Bus" Benson, also McDowell, . went hit- less. BOWLEE-- Apps, 3b; McDowell, c; Evans, ss; Spring, 1b; Benson, rf; Imrie, 2b; Baker, cf; LePelley, If; Dowey, p.

CONTINENTALS WIN EX. GAME OVER GM-COLTS Continental Rug Co. Seniors beat out Oshawa GM-Colts 5-3 in a snappy exhibition floodlight game played at the new Dieppe Park, East York, on Saturday evening. Continentals, with a season's rec- ord of 23 wins and only 2 defeats, fielded a snappy club excelling in batting power, behind the reliable pitching of Joe Roberts, their No. 1 | pitching ace.

The Australian netters defeated the Czechs 4-1 in the five match series; with the veteran Jack Brom- wich proving thé star of the round. Bromwich won his two singles matches and partnered Colin Long for a triumph in doubles. Dinny Palis, the No. 1 Australian, split his two singles encounters.

DUNN'S TAILORS DEFEAT BOWLES IN JUNIOR GAME Dunn's Tailors, Oshawa"s best Ju- nior softball team in recent years, maintained their undefeated record for the 1947 season when they whipped Bowles Lunch of Toronto Beaches Junior League, 9-2 at Bathe Park here on Saturday night in an exhibition game. The visitors started off fast when Deverill walked, May grounded out but Latham walked and then Caus- ton singled. Mile walked, to force in a run. Ellis popped out but Dick- inson walked, to force in another run, as Welsh had trouble finding the plate. He fanned Merton to end the inning and after that, went along in fine style, giving up no more runs and only three hits in the entire game, while striking out a total of five. But for some errors by his mates, he would never have been in trouble for the rest of the game and as it was, he didn't give the Bowles team another run after the first shaky inning. Dunn's didn't have their full team on hand by any means but they showed enough batting power to take the decision handily. McIntyre walked to open the game, Scott walked with one out and Stark walked with two out, to fill the bases then Taylor hit a double. In the 3rd, Loreno doubled and scored on Taylor's single. Terwilli- gar"s homer scored three runs in the 4th, coming with one out after Welsh had walked and McIntyre had singled. In the 6th, McIntyre walked again in the 6th and scored when Scott and Loreno both doubled. In the Tth, Dart and Welsh each singl- ed and McIntyre walked with one out, then Terwilligar singled and so did Scott, to score the top two runners, McIntyre turned in a fine per- formance for the winners. He walk- ed three times and singled once and scored each team for four of his team's runs. Loreno had two doubles and a walk in five trips and Taylor had a double and a single in four tries, to lead the bat- ters.
