Trailing 1-0 in their series with Oshawa Hef- fering's Imperials, Whitby Abner's Essos face the grim chore of having to win the next two games if they are to capture the OASA Senior "B" best-of- three first round set. Tuesday night is the date of the second game at Alexandra park in Oshawa, Game time is 8:15 p.m. A toss of the coin, prior to Tuesday's encounter will decide the site of a third and deciding game if necessary. The main' contribu=- tion to a loss or downfall of a club is the ever-exist= ing error. Unfortunately this definitely pertains to Whitby, In their last three play-off matches, including a 2-3 series against Mount Zion, Abners have com- mitted 16 miscues. It would be safe to say that this is why Whitby are on a three-game play-off losing streak. One more setback and it's curtains for the 1961 softball season. Wally Samanski, who was tagged with the defeat in the opener played at the Town park on Wednesday night, will have an extra day or two to rest his arm and back before making a second attempt at knocking off Hefferings. The second game was originally scheduled for this evening, but was moved to Tuesday to allow Scugog Cleaners and Tux- edo Junction an opportunity of hurrying up their first round OASA Junior "A" series. Wednesday's game, or no difficulty of little Until the fourth inning Samanski sailed along with Hefferings began to peck away at Whitby's 4-0 1 and with in two frames had whittled it to 4-2. Fin in the sixth, a three run splurge hoisted Oshawa the lead for the first time. Some timely hits base-running allowed Abner' reclaim as they came right back wit sixth. With a mere three innings victory was becoming more of a re fell in. Hefferings exploded for e , by two solo shots. Oshawa proved one obvious point to Abners, that they have the ability and desire to fight back regardless of how t a def them. Whitby will likely play little tiously should they be fortunate enough to get the jump again on Hefferings to icit confronts more cau- TOWN AND COUNT 11 definitely have a J coming 1961-62 sea They ions to join the Metro Junior league along with Marlboros, St. M els College, Unionville, Brampton and three clubs merging, to be known as Toronto Italians, at a recent g in Toronto Brooklin Hillerests rallied in the third period against the Brampton Ramblers on Thu y night 2¢ Brook- { lin for a 9-6 victory to even their OLA Senior best- of-seven semi-final series at 1-1. The vital third game goes tonight in Brampton with the fourth game sched- uled for the Brooklin Community arena on Tuesday night. There was plenty of action in Thursday's bat- tle, featured by a third period fracas involving Don Craggs of Brooklin and the Thompson brothers, Wayne and Gord. The latter snuck in a punch when Craggs was jostling on the floor with brother Wayne. This interference cost him a 10-minute misconduct, and with only seven minutes remaining, he was sent to the dressing room. However his exit was momentarily held up while a few fans jumped him, Fellow Bramp- ton players joined the mob scehe and swung viciously with their sticks, drawing blood on one battler . .
