convenor Clark says that when Starr Electric originally chose to play in the OASA series they did so with the understanding that there would only be one series and the winner of that series would go to Oshawa for the Double championships The OASA only told us last week that there would be another series after the one with Bayfield said Clark The guys on the team just felt Even the best plans no matter how care tw missed many of his powerful first serves and Borg capitalized to win the match 63 63 CP Photo that it would be too much ball we might have had to play eight games in five days We have known since the end of Ju ly wed be playing Bayfield If the OASA had told us sooner about playing another series we could have started earlier and had time for both without con flict between the
