For Pitching Its just come to your attention that weve beta neglecting oar Peel- York Softball chums outrageously this sem ester However King Citys championship winning effort over this past week cant be overlooked Most of the FeelYork experts didnt rate King a chance to knock over Bolton to prove the can be wrong King came through with a championship According to our statistician Brace Hall King Citys Mr Softball a veteran of many Softball pitching duels unfurled a brilliant three hitter to pace King City to a win over Bolton in the seventh and deciding game of their playoff round That victory staked King City to the league crown We think therefore this week it is only fitting that should rate the Hash man award anil Theatre passes and at the same time offer our congratulations to

thing youll never be criticized so if somebody is pot shooting at you or your work then you must be doing something If all the arm chair critics who do noth ing for sport but hoop and hol ler about someone elses endeav ours in this neck of the county were laid end to end theyd circle the globe umpteen times That leads us to mount our i soapbox to discuss the recent Aurora Newmarket Something that couldnt be done safely or sanely until some of the hotheads on both sides of the fence had simmered down Some report would lead you to believe Newmarket were the only cul prits say not so Like any good argument theres two aides to it One thing sure its been a pow der keg situation and everybody connected with the league knew it after Aurora or should we say an Aurora official filed a protest on the eligibility of New market players Jerry Hugo and Part that burned the local executive was that Au rora were using at least two players who were not eligible residence rule Now for game which was later ordered replayed and start ed the in earnest It was Newmarkets understanding the umpires too that it wns a nine innings affair Aurora did nt seem to hestitate about tak ing field in the eighth Theres nothing in or league rules to say re verted back to end of the seventh It was a legally drawn game and as such had to bo re played That brings us to the final ex plosion Here we con only speak from our own personal knowtedge and not on hearsay evidence Jimmy Murray Au rora couch called in our office Saturday morning la Newmar ket playing Monday Labor Day Wo couldnt answer that one so phoned Herb Cain Newmarket coach who advised No wo cant ploy Monday havent enough men to field a team There was no question of de faulting the game If Aurora appeared on the field Monday they did bo with knowledge that Newmarket wouldnt b there In touch with tho league Sunday was In formed that unless further no tice was forthcoming there would be no game Monday No further advice was received Newmarket suggested to the they would play Tuesday Wednesday Thursday or Friday Does that sound like stalling which tome folks auggested Newmarket were Why the didnt resume never know On Tuesday Sim- coe league secretary Doug Coul- son phoned and left a message that the league executive meeting Wednesday Your tied up hero as convener for the EdgarPine Orchard aeries President nnd Wednesday informing him we couldnt attend Next thing we hear from Ernie he received a breakfait time call to the effect league had ordered Newmarket and Aurora to play a suddendeath game la Aurora Friday That decision was made by the league executive in of four men who were not connected with either teem and therefore totally impartial They must been it the end their patience with the teams to mate tort death Jimmy Murray Aurora coach phoned Friday to say his boys wouldnt play Friday New market had nothing official from the league to say the game was off so Newmarket appeared at Aurora Friday and were order ed to play Barrie for the league title Aurora could not or would not play Friday and from what we could learn they could not say when they would be able to play until they had completed their playoffs It was nt any greater hardship for them to play Friday than for Newmarket Newmarket were scheduled to play Satur day in Its still our considered opin ion this whole situation could have been ironed out harmoni ously if some of the hotheads on both sides could have been sent packing and the two executives both interested in seeing base ball flourish could have sat down to a round table confer ence TIES SET WITH LEGION Newmarket Legion found Fri day that putting runners on base is only a small part of winning ball games The led Legion stranded seven men including two each

scored Herb Cain Pinch hitter Thorns went down swinging to close the rally Newmarkets other big chance to break into the run scoring came in the fourth when Charlie VonZnnt doubled and Herb Cain singled but the rally petered out as was picked off third and Ken Broughton skied out The Generals broke from the wire first to bundle a 30 lead over the first four frames Bar rio had their big
