Superior fielding and hiWing by the Toromto mem and marvellous pitching for them by both Cockburn and Wells were the Hela responsible for the defeat which was handed out to Billy Ben- son's elan, "It was a snappy game alk the wav with Motors being sent back hitless and runlest for the first 1.¥e innings, while Danforths were holding up their end of the bar gain by hurrying across their nine rung In the five innings they seared. 1:Motors broke the ice that was beg puns to form around their sporing column when they sent in thelr first and only run in the sixth inning, It was started by "Ohuck'" May when he hit a pop fly up in front of the plate which wont for a hit when Wells and Brooks wtaged a Gaston and Al- phonse comedy: He went to secont on a passed ball at the plate ant then coasted along to thitd wher g Fair bounded down to Ashton at second. "InMatty" Matthews, next up, eame through with a ved hot hit into left field that gave May lots of time to amble home with the run that saved he name of Motors from a shut out, Flying Start WDanforths had thelr first fling at the score board in the very first canto. when Smith, the first man up, got down to firet on Kellar's error and then went to second on Comper's sacrifice. He scored on a single by Terry. Terry advanced tg second on a nice pilfer and made third on a combination of a steal and a delayed throw. He crossed the plate when Kerr tapped a sac- riice down to shortstop. Another hit followed this play but Motors pulled out of the danger zone when 10g 'Falr gathered in a high one in ceptre field. Run number three came for the Danforths In the following session when Cockburn, the lanky pitcher, cfit loose with a single through the ih¥leld and scored on a healthy hit to centre off Smith's bat. More tfouble for Bensop's men came to their door step in the third, and ahother brace of runs were hung up by the Torontonians before they want out to field again.

Outstanding In the victory was "Jimmy" Walsh, recently arquired left-fielder. The veteran outfielder hit a triple, double and single In four times at bat, scored three of the Leafs' runs and drove in the other two, a real day's work for anv player. But in addition he went af- ter one off Lawry's hat which might easily have been good for two hases Jacobson, who, on Wednesday, hit two homn run: truck out twice vesterday. while Alexander went hit- less. Red' Harerava went into the 'ame In the eighth and hit for Jacobson, getting a single to score a run. Spencer and Rensa gnt the other hits for the Leafs. 'Lena' Styles was at second hase and made a good job of the assignment. Ve handled ten chances without a #lip, and several of these were difficult ones. He, however, went hitless, fallure to touch first hase in the fourth inning ensting him a double or triple. In this inning Styles's long fly to centre field soared over the outfielders' heads, but Styles, when almost at first base, twisted his ankle and lurched to one side, fail- ing to touch the bag as he rounded first, It was a tough break. A little excitement entered the game in the last Ball of the eighth. Head, catching for Rochester, ob- jected to a ball ealled by Umpire 'IcBride, apd when the umpire re- mover his mask stepping back from the plate, Head hit him with his gloved hand. After the smoke had cleared away McAvoy was catching and Head had gone to the showers Several Rochester players objected tn Head's removal from the ramp ut the game continued without the pugpaciously inclined catcher.

It was the fifth consecutive victory for the Cubs. Chi- cago hit Genewich opportunely, forc- ing his retirement in the fourth nning. The Pirates drew half a game closer to the league-leading Chicago Cubs by | taking two games from Philadelphia {at Pittsburg; 8 to 5 and 7 to 3. The Cubs now lead by one full game, - Ray Kremer hurled the Pirates to victory in the second gawe, and aided his own cause with two singles and a home run. The opener was a hard hitting contest, which the Corsairs snatched out of the fire with a four- run rall y in the seventh inning. The Giants observed the return of John McGraw from a scouting expedi- tion by whipping the Reds at Cincin- nati 4 to I. Larry Benton went the distance in the box for New York, and allowed but six safeties. Pete Donohue made his first start in 2 month for Cincinnati, but gave way to & pinch hitter in the seventh.

At Chicago-- At St. Lowis-- Brooklyn South Oshawa iles put another victory on 'the credi: side of the weather worn ledger when they defeated Simcoe Street Mets by a 7 10 4 score at Lakeview Park last night. This victory also gives them the odds to win the group honours and come through with the right to represent Oshawa in the O.B.A. play downs for the Juvenile Championship of Ontario. South Oshawa played con- sistent ball last night and deserved their win despite the hard hitting ef- forts and commendable fielding of the Mets. One run in the first, three in the second and another trio in the fifth were responsible for giving the South Oshawa youths their three run margin. Hurst gathered in the counter in the opening frame, while Drinkle, Mat- thews and Russel broke away in the third. The three in the fifth came from Brady, Trotter and Drinkle. Mets' four runs were accounted for by Hall, Mundy and Moffatt with two going to the first named. Hall, the first man up in the opening canto brought in Mets' first run, and he scored again in the sixth with Mundy following him. The fourth run was brought in by Moffatt in the seventh inning. Although they were danger- week, due to the fact that they have | ous mm the second and fifth besides these frames, they were unable to in- dent the score sheet for any more than their four tallies. Some good pitching by Jack Smith tor the Southerners was one of the main hghts of the game irom a field- ng standpoint, there being nine bat- ters retired by the strike out route during the seven sessions. Moffatt for Mets was also effective and: came in for his share of the strike out as well the way along. Mundy at second and Matthews at short for Mets handled a goodly num her of plays without any very serious slip and the same might be said for Russel and Smith for South Oshawa. The line ups were: South Oshawa--Hurst If, Matthews cf, Brady rf, Siwowkowski ¢, Trotter 3h, Drinkle 2b, Matthews ss, Smith p, Russel 1h.
