Price popped up but Sneddon Markham Aces came from be- hind a 4-0 deficit last night at SOFTBALL in this city, will set what we believe is a record season, as far as length is concerned, due to the sizzling ding-dong championship finals being waged by Markham Aces and Oshawa Scugog Cleaners Jun- iors, for the 1959 South Ontario County Softball. League title and right % hold the Lawson Clifford Trophy. Up at Alexadra Park last night, Markham Aces came from behind a 4-0 deficit to nose out the local Juniors 5-4, tying the game up in the 7th inning with two runs and getting the winning tally over the plate in the top half of the 9th inning. Scugog Cleaners onthit Markham but after the third inning, they failed to bunch enough hits to constitute a rally. They had runners on bases several times, but always they started to threaten after there were two out. Middleton's slow-pace control pitching didn't produce many strikeouts but he did have the Scugogs hitting sky-high flies to the deep outfield, and these were all gathered in by the Markham out- fielders which enabled them to win the verdict. With hockey and bowling interfering, not to mention the cold weather, the two teams areed to play the fifth and de- ciding game this Sunday afternoon, here at Alexandra Park, at three o'clock. SCOREBOOKS ! Every year, at about this time, we have .toA§sue a warning or reminder to various softball and bgéeball teams, We have on the Sports Desk about 15 or 16 scorebooks, belonging to. various local ball clubs. In some cases, a few, the books may be almost filled up and of not much future use, but in other cases, the books are still only half-used. In addition, some of them belong to teams that have won Ontario cham- pionships this season and we would expect that some- body, team manager, coach or captain, would like to have these books, if only as a souvenir of 'a successful season. Other managers may want to check a scorebook, for statistics and facts concerning his players. At any * rate--will the following team managers (or somebody connected with the team) please note that these score- books are waiting to be picked up. If they are not pick- ed up within the next few days--they'll go into the wastebasket. Following teams please note:--Ritson Road Drugs; Oshawa Legion Juniors; Wilkinson Construction Juniors; Black's Men's Wear; Kinloch's; Victor's Sports; Beaton's Dairy; Tony's Refreshments (2); Duplate In- dustrials; Storie Park Pee Wees; Bathe Park Pee Wees; Scugog Cleaners Juveniles; Sunnyside Park Midgets; Thornton's Corners Bantams; Eastview Park Bantams: Southmead Midgets. BRIGHT BITS: -- Local youngsters hoping to catch a berth with one of the Bantam, Midget or Juvenile teams in the Oshawa Minor Hockey Association set-up this season, are reminded that the Bantams are to regis- ter next Monday evening, 7.00 o'clock, at.the Oshawa Children's Arena and on Tuesday night, at the same time, Midgets and Juveniles are to report. . . . SAN FRANCISCO Giants have called a big conference of the press, for this afternoon and it's expected that Bill Rig- ney will be announced as continuing manager of the Gi- ants for 1960. . . . HOCKEY FANS are getting extra newspaper items of interest these days, thanks to that "missing million" down Belleville way. Now the gov- ernment is going to examine the books of all hockey clubs, where evasion of amusement tax is suspected. Obviously, the bookkeeping magic in Belleville isn't confined to hockey expenses but just the same, the big probe there has alerted the authorities, yet, as we can not fail to wonder, are they out to help or hinder the sport . . .

Chosen to represent Can- ada in the 1960 Olympics, they must go with an all - amateur cast, resulting in one of the youngest clubs in the loop. But they also have some vet- eran stars like centre Ken Lauf- man, who contributed 23 goals and 53 assists last year. Most promising newcomer is centre Cliff Pennington, 19, from Flin Flon Bombers. World champion Belleville's strength is doubtful. McFarlands have lost many of their title-win- ning team but have added Bus Gagnon from Kingston. Hold- overs include Floyd Crawford, Wiener Brown and Moe Benoit. Although the Dutchmen will be absent in Februarv they will re- turn to take part in the playoffs if their standing qualifies them. Four teams go in the post-sched- ule action.
