Thé knockout competition, played on a win-or-out basis, ended last night at the Ontario Hospital grounds in Whitby, before a large turnout of fans with Strila defeating Ajax Bequicks 6-3. It was a terrific sudden-death game, with the over-anxious Ajax club scor- ing two goals against their own goalie. However, on the play, the Strila club deserved the victory and the honor of being the first win- ners of the trophy.

Hosking's Oil Burners invade Oshawa again tonight to tangle with McCallum Transporters at Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium in the third game of their 3-out-of-5 Viaduct-On- tario League senior baseball semi-final series. This one tonight could end it all.

Before the second half was three minutes old Donowsky fired a five- yarder into the Bequick's net and minutes later Jimmy Harrison a- warded a penalty against Bequicks for holding. Sarancz's first effort was wide but the referee award- led a retake by Strila because the Bequick goaltender had violated the rule that a goaltender shall shall not move until the penalty taker strikes the ball.

The seventh and last in- ning of the game saw four more hard one-base elouts being hit and three runners come across the dish Ebenezer has lacked the power needed in both playoff tilts and thus they lag behind in the series.

But the law of averages may enter into things and provide an upset tonight. We look for the Transporters to win tonight's game but the Hosking's club finished in second place and they have a lot bet- ter baseball in their make-up than they have shown most times against Oshawa. Cec Hall will likely get the starting call for mound duty tonight and the rest of the Transporters are avail. able, to round out a full team. If they keep hitting the way they have been pounding the old apple lately, Hosking's pitchers will have a lot of trouble. It's to be hoped that a good crowd turns out to see this game here tonight. Transporters have had a skinny season at the box office but they have carried on and they de- serve support. If they win tonight, they then will have to wait un- til Belitville and Oakville decide their series, before the finals can get under way. THE BIG STOCK CAR race at Oshawa Raceways this evening is the only other local sports attraction for this evening. Rained out on Tuesday night, Aldsworth's Cleaners will now open their series with Sunnyside Jets, at Sunnyside Stadium in Toronto, tonight, with the return game likely here on Saturday afternoon. Maple Cleaners are playing Brougham Bombers in an exhibition game tonight over at Pickering under the lights. Cleaners open the OASA Senior "B" se- ries against Whitby Stokers, in the County Town this Saturday night. This , Series has the softball fans all steamed up and it's likely to be a sizzler. OASA playoff action holds the sportslight tomorrow night. Brooklin Stevenson Motors go to Hastings to open their Inter, "C" second round series with the return game back in Brooklin on Wednesday night. In the Pee Wee series, Storei Park boys, whe won the local CRA Pee Wee League championship, move into On tario playdowns tonight, on their home diamond, with Brookiin Pee Wees as the visitors, first game of their OASA series.

The first run for the winners came home in the opening frame. Petre, the second batter got on with a free pass then by get- ting to third with two stolen sacks, he scored on an error to the Vic- tors catcher.

By the end of this frame the winners were ahead, 4-2, and this is how the contest ended. The only other near scoring came in the fourth when Brown and Roberts each got a single. Ogden fanned eleven batters. Wills crossed tre dish in the first for the losers with the help of a single by Ryan, then the losers scored another marker in the third off a single by Westfall and a double by Taylor.

The ROCKETS GO DOWN ONE WIN |d Inter-County of series). Teams Ready For Playofts By THE CANADIAN PRESS The Intercounty Senior Baseball League was down to four teams and the playoffs today after a fough 60-game schedule. Tne ex- pe! may have a problem trying to pick the champion. Ever since the regular schedule started months ago Galt Terriers and Brantford ed Sox were labelled as the boys to watch in the run to the wire, The others, including St. Thomas Eigins, weren't given too much of a chance. Things could be different, now. The Terriers and Red Sox finished one-two in the league standings, all right. But they chose to play each other in the semi-final series and leave the Elgins and London Majors to scrap in the other semi final. The Elgins defeated the Majors 9-7 in St. Thomas Wednesday night in a special windup game called to break a tie for third place. Thars where the catch may come The Elgins have been showing plenty of power at the plate and on the mound lately. They are fa- vored to take the Majors in their best-of-three series that starts in St. Thomas tonight. If the Terriers and Red Sox knock each other around hard enough, Elgins might sneak in. Elgins were involved in a free- hitting contest Wednesday night wth Butch Lawing hitting a two- run homer for them in the first inning and Jim Halkard smacking a bases-empty home run for Lon. on in the seventh. Halkard also hit a double and a single to lead the Majors. Southpaw Jack Caffrey pitched six innings for the victory. He was relieved by manager Tom White. Stan Slack started for London.

Sunnyside Wins First of Series Over Brooklin Last night at Brooklin Park the Sunyside Park Midget boys defeat- ed the Brooklin Combines, 9-5, in the first game of the Midget OASA playdowns. The winners got off to a good start with a big first inning and this proved in a later recounting. to be the difference in the win and the loss. R. Simcoe and Wilson led off with singles for the winners and 'were soon followed by B. Simcoe who smashed a one base clout in front of McDonald, who tagged a double. Another single by Price and then an error followed by a walk, accounted for the first five Sunyside tallies. The winners were held in the next inning but a four bagger off the bat of Price gave them another run in the third. In the fourth the Sunnyside crew got back on the beam and scored two runners off a free pass and a one-bagger by McDonald. A single tally gave the winners their last run, it came in the sixth with the aid of a walk. Brooklin were not so hot at the dish and they failed to maintain the pace set by the winners. A pair crossed the plate to open for the losers and they added a two- some in the sixth off two hits, a single by Evans and Redshaw's double. The last marker came home in the ninth off a single by Jones and a double by Pascoe. SUNNYSIDE: R. Simcoe, 3b; Wilson, ss; Fielder, If; B.
