I CHECKING SPORT By BOB RIFE So many fans ve asked us to write a cii column ex- plaining the cies' of the Canadian footballhat we have + finally decided )at perhaps we might do sonthing along the line. To begin with,a thorough understanding of ootball w only come one wt . . . from going to watch yor hometown team play. You ien become interested in loca boys, and tend to watch whatn individu- al performer doesn making a play click. So Rule 1. Wate the Raid- . ers, the OCVI an¢CCI teams in action. Then there is thebusiness of staying away fror the older fans. They have agreat habit of not watching th game that is being played, nd of dis- cussing viva voce, he old days of Bola Bola U. and Hulla- balu Tech. 4 They tell these tles in such a convincing manpr and with such realistic actins," that a green fan will betempted to ask them (on baded knee) +. . . "Please tell 3 how that player can run arand the end of the crowd of )layers and not have to run though it?" The reply will ast through 'an emire schedul of football games if you happen to sit be- side the same guy during each ame and will in he end result you acquiriig a great knowledg of sail explainer as the greaest player at Bola Bola U., 'second only to Bron- ko Nagurki in ground-gaining during th season of '05". Your kowledge of present day rules . , vastly different even fromthose of five years ago . . . Yl more than likely be practicdy nil, So Rule, Stay away from wearers ( coon-skin coats waving n% bearing the leg- end . . . "Rarcats, 1905. Rah! Rah!" The followg is the best way to keep You eyes on the right spot at theright time in a football gam , . . (this is de- signed espeally for female fans in the enpany of an ex- es. & Rule 3. our eyes on the. hall only n it is in the air. Thus you s¢ & good kick; a gon pass, abad fumble, a Sod Soal thematter of kick- g the ball rough' the u rights: for thee a n rouge (the miter of kicking te ball behii the goal}ine and tackling tl enemy player receiving the kk whilst ig still behind thdine thus scor- ing a single pat) and a con- vert or conversn (the matter of kicking the Hl through the uprights after touchdown to score a single pat bonus). © And with you eyes off the ball during a line plunge, end run, or before a pass play, you don't miss the fine blocking and offensive and defensive patterns which the two teams will set up. Of course, should you see a layer carrying the ball for $o-odd yards . . . keep ope eye on him . . . he might score a touchdown. So ends Lesson One. CHECKLETS -- Speaking of football reminds us that the Red Raiders play down in Co- bourg this Saturday afternoon Peterboro defeated the Ghosts -0. Now if we were a point- spread tactician, we'd figure the Raiders for a tight game this time. . . weren't they just seven worse than the Petes? Word from the locals' cam has it that Miles and Burkhart, two big men on the line, are likely starters for this Satur- day . . . that should really make a difference. We hear sad: news though . . . Roy Bergerson and Coon Wood are doubtful starters. Coon played great on the line against the Petes and Roy is a fine tackling end. If Roy can't start, a fellow named Ken Brideson looks good as a replacement. So the news isn't too bad. In fact the way Wedley is driv- ing the boys this week, we figure the Ghosts better do a fade out. From Peterboro the word is that both the PCVS and St. Peter's High School football teams are starting = scrim- mages. It was just this Tues- day that the fellows went back to school, but already they are thinking along Cossa lines up that way. According to the usually reli- able source, the St. Pete's crew are the team to beat. We're not sure how they'll do it, but two girls' softball ames are scheduled for the ond at Bathe Park Sut- urday afternoon. At 2.30, there is a PWSU Juvedile final between Hamil- n and Oshawa Motorettes. At 2.45 on the south diamond, Barrie meets Eveleigh Clean- ers in an exhibition game. It sounds real cut-throat to this department. Down at Civic Stadium the OBA Bantam Baseball On- tario tourney will be in full swing starting at 10.00 a.m. and ending around 5.30. p.m. Teams from Ottawa, Chatham, Oshawa and the Hamilton- Mimico winners will be com- ting. \ Then there's the harness races at the Alexandra Park track. Anybody for a quiet week- end? « +» +» by Bob Rife. 'Tigers ust Majors To Read I-C Final By THE CANADAN PRESS It's Waterloo ers against either Brantford Redox or Kitch- ener Panthers in thifinals of the Senior Intercounty Bieball League playoffs. : The Tigers Thursdy night won their best-of-nine sed-final series 5-4 by édging Londo Majors 3-2, Meanwhile the Panthrs tied their semi-final series withBrantford at four games apiece wh an 8-3 viec- tory over the Red Sk.

It could be tonight or Saturday but if the Braves are really in- spired, the brewing centre popula- tion may not get to see it at all, since the Dodgers are in town for only two games. Since an eventual Brooklyn vic- tory ranks close behind death and taxes as a sure thing, the Dodgers almost owe it to the Milwaukee faithful to win before their eyes. More people have seen games in Milwaukee this season than in any other National League city. Any combination of two Brook- lyn victories and Milwaukee losses will seal the deal for Charlie Dressen's club. Since a Brooklyn victory either tonight or Saturday atomatically would mean a Mil- waukee loss, things look bright for the Dodgers. Brooklyn could have had at least a half share in the pennant nailed down already but the Brooks slipped up in Cincipnati Thursday and got beaten 8-5 in 11 innings. The Redlegs battered three Dodger pitchers for 18 hits and finally won on a gift run in the 11th. With the bases loaded and none out Clem Labine walked home the winning ally. The Dodgers broke two home-run records although they hit only one homer. Wayne Belardi's blast in the eighth was the 1,101st homer in the National League this season, breaking an all-time loop record. And it was the 195th Brooklyn home run this year, a high for the club. : In the only other National League game Thursday, St. Louis edged New York 7-6. New York Yankees moved closer to the Am- erican League title with a 1-0 tri- umph over Chicago and Cleveland bowed to Boston 14-4 in the only junior circuit action. Eddie Lopat outduelled Sandy Consuegra for the Yankees' vic- tory with the winning run coming in Gene Woodling's second inning home run into the lower left field: stands at Yankee Stadium. t scattered four hits in winning his 15th game, his fourth over Chicago and his third shutout. Chico Car- rasquel got three of the four Chi- cago safeties. At Boston Cleveland's stretch drive was halted for the fourth time in 24 games and the Indians fell 10 games behind the Yankees. Any combination of seven New York Victories and Cleveland losses will give the Yankees their fifth straight pennant. Ted Williams hit his 10th and 11th home runs, raising his slugging rcentage to 1.017. In 60 times at at he has collected 26 hits good for 61 total bases--11 home runs, two doubles and 13 singles. Slug- ging percentages are determined y dividing the number of times at bat into the total bases. The ardinals regained sole pos- session of third place from the idle Philadelphia Phillies with their vic- tory over the Giants. Enos Slaugh- ter's home run in the eighth proved the margin of victory as the Giants rallied for a pair the ninth. Royals Edge Leafs; As Bisons Lose 5-2 By THE CANADIAN PRESS Montreal Royals strengthened their hold on second place in the International League Thursday night shading Toronto Maple Leafs 2-1 at home to move a step farther ahead of Buffalo Bisons who dropped a 5-2 decision to Ottawa Athletics. In the only other game sched- uled, Baltimore Orioles closed out their home season with a 4-3 vie- tory over Springfield Cubs, clinch- ing at least a tie for feurth place and a berth in the playoffs. At Montreal, the Leafs were practically eliminated from the select circle as starter Hal Hudson walked the first three batters, two of whom crossed the plate. Hudson was relieved by Ray Shore in the seventh but was charged with the loss, his second against four victories. Tom La- Sorda, Montreal's ace lefty, went the distance for the winners to give him a 17-8 record. At "Baltimore, a pinch homer by Stan Jok and a two-run double by Russ Kerns enabled the Orioles to overcome a 2-1 disadvantage in the eighth. Howie Fox received credit for the win after starter Jack Sanford was pulled for Jok in the eighth. At Ottawa, the Athletics scored all their runs in two big innings. In the first, two walks, three singles and an error gave 'the home team three runs, a lead cut to a single run by Buffalo who got singles in the fifth and seventh, The A's scored their final two runs in the eighth on singles by Walt Rogers, Lou Limmer and FIGHTS LAST NIGHT |.
