The chances of the Nationals against Windsor in the O. B. A. play-downs are freely dis- cussed. Kroehlers' bid for the inter- mediate championship of the Ontario Softball Association also has the sport fans keenly interested. * * + Windsor will be at National Stadium to-morrow afternoon, and the fans will get a chance to see just what kind of club has come out of the bor- der league this season. Last year, Windsor sent up the Windsor Moose Lodge club, Although the Windsor boys were young and lacked experi- ence, they gave a good account of themselves, and forced the series to three games. * a The second game of the series will be played in Windsor on Saturday, September 16. Originally, it had been planned to play the second game in Windsor on Sunday, September 10, but the O. B. A. has announced a change in the arrangements. The winner of this series will meet either Toronto or the Niagara District champions for the O. B. A. championship. x + * Much favorable comment was heard on the streets last week, after the Na- tionals had won the Intercounty League senior championship. They won it at Brantford, so only a few of their well-wishers were on hand to see them become title-holders for the sec- ond year in succession. Had Stratford MILK At It's Best FROM BESSE' DAIRY (Formerly Finnegan's) Wholesale and Retail Cream Butter Phone Besse's 550w dropped that game, there would have been another game here on Labor Day. The Nationals proved their anx- iety to win by going out and beating Brantford, with no thought of the gate which another game here might have drawn. * * e Irish Miskimmons, catcher for the Nationals, suffered a painful injury in the Brantford game, when he was struck on the arm by a pitched ball. Sam Reid, the Brantford pitcher, was - the one who struck him. A blood ves- sel in the arm was ruptured, and Mis- kimmons was forced to retire from ac- tion. Eddie Radiff went in to catch, and Buzz Given went to left field, while Syd Aloian moved in to third base. * * & Kroehlers made short work of Chat- ham in the second round of the On- tario Softball Association playdowns. Nick Libett of Kroehlers was out- standing in both games, fanning a total of thirty-three batters. In the first game, at Stratford, Nick fanned seventeen. He got sixteen, via the strike-out route, in the second game, at Chatham. * * a A crowd of close to three thousand spectators saw the game here, and it was the better game of the two. In the second game the Kroehler team hit Art Sellars, the Chatham pitcher, freely. They got a total of eleven hits. Home: runs by Musselman, Mc- Creadie and Philip of the Stratford team were features of the game. Mus- selman's homer was particularly dam- aging to Sellars, as it came with two men on base. * * * Kroehlers' will now meet either Hamilton or Welland. The Hamilton team, after eliminating Galt, must play Welland. First game of the ser- ies will be played in Hamilton or Wel- land next Wednesday night. Hither Hamilton or Welland will play in Stratford on Saturday, September 16. * * * The declaration of war by Great Britain has caused some confusion in the sport world. Hockey, football and basketball leagues are uncertain about the future, since many of the young men who would be playing will be in uniform. American hockey leagues are affected, too, since most of the hockey players who make _ up the teams in the United States are Can- adians, * * oy The Michigan-Ontario Hockey League, in which Stratford has a franchise, received bad news when it became known that Chatham would not operate a team this year because the new arena which had been plan- ned for Chatham has not been built. The old arena was sold to the curlers, who have shortened the ice surface by about twenty feet. As a result, Chat- ham is without a rink in which to play hockey this winter. The Maroons have been one of the most popular teams in the league since it was or- ganized.

W. Wakefield, M.P., the former Rugby football international and now Par- liamentary Private Secretary to the Secretary of the Department of Over- seas Trade. Speaking to the Rotary Club in his constituency of Swindon, one of the biggest railway workshops in the world, Mr. Wakefield said: "In 1938 the United Kingdom im- ported more than £900 million worth of goods, more than the imports of the U.S.A. and greater Germany to- gether. Nearly half came from the British Empire, who rest from for- eign countries. This is striking indi- cation of the enormous economic pow- er and influence of this country. But this great import market must have a counterpart in the export market. Essential raw materials for our fac- tories in the first six months of 1939 cost over £100 million, and essential imported foodstuffs cost nearly £200 million. "We can only continue to buy and pay for these vital needs if we can sell our own goods abroad. Our ex- porters are therefore 'front-line troops', but while the manufacturer and the merchant must of necessity bear the major burden of securing and maintaining our export trade, the Government now does much to assist this burden, and in the work of the. Department of Overseas Trade sucb assistance takes a very practical form: It is concerned with the problems of the individual trader, and can give advice as to likely markets for par- ticular classes of goods." 29 Ontario St. SUPER-LASTIC TIRES Moto-Master Oils -- Mor-Power Batteries.
