A fierce storm broke early in the second heat, soaking the cars and track but Unser drove far enough to win his money, while Roger McCluskey of Tuc- son, Arizona, collected $10,000 for finishing second, Gordon Johncock of Hastings, Mich., $6,540 in third and Lloyd Ruby of Witchita Falls, Texas, $5,100 in fourth place. Unser, a native of Albuquer- que, New Mexico, blew a hold in his oil filter before the start of the first heat, then suffered from a loose rear-end in his throughout the race. Although his position was not challenged until the end of the first jheat, McCluskey was an ever-present threat in second place. Unser took the lead when Ruby was forced into the pits for a tire change after 15 laps. Ruby stayed out of the race long enough to drop from first to eighth place, and although he tore up the track when he returned, he could not catch the three leaders. First three positions in the race did not change from the Jaycees Win Tournament NIAGARA ON THE LAKE (Staff) -- Oshawa Jaycees de- feated Binbrook 5-0 on the one- hit pitching of Andy Konopacki the Lake juvenile softball tour- nament Saturday. Oshawa edged Preston Raid- ers 8-7 in a first round game that was decided until the seventh inning and then trounced Beamsville 13-0 in the semi-final. : Konopacki gave up a leadoff single in the fifth inning to Lyle Killins for the only hit he al- lowed in the championship game. He struck out 16 bat- ters. An error, a hit batsman and two passed balls put Binbrook in good scoring position in the seventh but shortstop Daryl Hudgin made a_ spectacular catch behind second base and doubled the runner at that base to end the inning. Warren McGahey and Walt Kolonowski each had two hits for Oshawa in the champion- were hit by Ted McComb, Ron Joseph, Laurie Weatherall, Jim Nesbitt and Kim Rogers. Brien Cook picked up two of Frankford's three hits, as he collected a triple and a single, while Larry McCauley hit a single.

Oshawa held a 7-0 ledd going into the fifth and Rain played havoc with the Central Ontario men's doubles championships at the Oshawa end. Second round play had just been completed Saturday when rain started to fall, and the tournament was delayed until Sunday. More: rain, Sunday, however, forced tournament chairman Ron Guiltinan to put the remainder of the tourney back to August 19 and 20. Entries from Ottawa, King- ston, Belleville, Galt, Oakville, Scarboro, Toronto and Oshawa made up the strongest field in several years, with a total of 37 doubles teams competing. The four top-seeded teams were: last year's champions, Joe Osadca and Graham Downes of the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club; Lawrie Strong and Dave Body of the Toronto Cricket, Skating and Curling Club; Max Ward and Peter Hatcher of the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club; and Miles Mor- row and Dave Dinelle of the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club. Only one-third round match had been completed when rain started, Ward and Hatcher de- feating Craig Pyke and Bob Weir of Leaside' 6-2, 9-7.

Top driver in this category was Ruby, who completed the sixth lap in one minute, 26 sec- onds, for an average speed of 102.94 miles per hour, four sec- onds off the lap record set by Dan Gurney. Unser was never clocked at this speed, but he drove a steady race, finishing in just under one hour. Average speed for the first two laps of the second heat was in the neighborhood of 95 miles per hour, but during the wet track laps they stayed at about sixty miles per hour. It is a USAC rule not to race in the rain, "That's one snakey course," said one driver after the race. Unser said he was easy on the car the whole race, and intimated that he was driving to finish rather than pushing his car and risking going off the track. When asked if, during the early part of the race, he thought he could catch Ruby, he said "I could catch him all right, but I don't know if I could have got around him." McCluskey voiced similar feelings of his chances of catching Unser. He had eut Unser's lead to a scant few seconds at one point but then backed off, laying nine or ten seconds off the pace. During the last lap, however, he press- ed the leader and drew within a few yards of him at one point but could not get any farhter. First and second place cars were both powered by Ford, and in the words of Bobby Unser, "they are the same fron. the tires up." Like many of the drivers, however, he did not like the width of the course and said "the best thing they could. do is widen the track about one lane." He also felt that more guard rails would be an improvement. These are some of the things, however, that make road rac- ing different from oval racing. The main differences of course is the variance in elevation and in the right 'and left 'corners which are not found at Indiana- polis. Parkdale Lions and Ajax Legion. Oshawa Legion stands fourth with 19 points, followed by East York Mercuries, 14 points, Cobourg Legion six and Lindsay five.
