THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1928 DEFEAT Whitby Ladies Decisively Defeated by Malleables Leaders of First Half of the | ceedings, Schedule Bow to Slugging Oshawa Stars -- Hurling 1 Allowing But Six - Hits and Fanning Thirteen Ontario Malleable pulled the uns expected at the Collegiate grounds last night when in the first game of the second half of the schedule they literally swamped the win- ners of the first half, Whithy, by a 26 to 10 score. Behind the out- standing pitching of Marion Kay for the O.M.I. the rejuvenated team worked like a charm last night and were the complete mas- ters of the situation throughout. Marion Kay struck out no less "than thirteen batters while she and her teammates smashed out 31 hits in their rampage at the ex- pense of the County Town aggre- gation, The fans could hardly believe their eyes when they saw the champions of the first half being trodden under hy Abbie Foster's clan who shared the cellar posi- tion with Buicks in the first sec- tion of the race just closed. But as inning followed inning with Malleable increasing thelr score while Whitby remained helpless be- fore Kay and company, the fact began to dawn that this second half of the schedule is going to see one merry scramble for the bunt- ing. Kay Kever On top of Malleable's good play- ing in every department, Whithy had an off night and made error after error which never has kap- pened before. But it wasn't their : errors that beat them, it was Marion Kay's pitching and the timely hitting by the whole team. Whithy's errors only made the trouncing more pronounced. Malleable indicated in the very first inning that they weren't out last night merely for the good of their health when they notched seven hits in a row off Mary For- rester and sent six runs across the plate, Five of the runs were scored hefore anyone was out and the first six on the batting line up did the counting. Besides singles from Jean McDonald, Rombough, Kay, McLean and Cooper, Isa Mc- Donald bagged a double and Doris Kilburn hammered out a three- hagger. Whithy showed some of their usual form in the second when with four successive walks to help them along they scored six runs and evened up the score. Mary Forrester, Effie Watson, Eileen Mc- Bride, Bobby Long, Muriel Jones and Mary Blow did the counting with hits going to Blow and For- rester, It was not until the third, how- ever, that the fans actually began te sit up and realize that they were | witnessing something that doesn't , happen every day even in a ladies' , softhall league, Malleables scored ten runs in.the third inning and , | they made Whithy like it. They ! pounded the old horsehide till there was hardly anything left of it and almost scorched the sacks, 0 fastly did they come and go. + On top of this, Whithy developed ! a mania for missing easy put outs :and as a result got into more hot *, water. Fourteen batters faced | Mary Forrester, nine hits and four errors were registered and when the third out was finally made, a , total of ten runs was chalked up 'for the inning. But even this was not sufficient for the local iron slingers., They 'came right back in the fourth and i gent Marion Kay on a through trip and continued where they left off !in the fifth by bringing in Jean | McDonald and May Cooper. Fear- ing that a respite may be unlucky Doris Kilburn polished off a run !in the sixth while Edith Rombough ! followed suit in the seventh, McDonald Triples Then as a parting jab, Malle- ables rallied in the eighth for their last bat and the whole team pgain travelled around, scoring five runs, {jsa McDonald clouted out her sec- 9nd extra base hit during the pro- this one being a triple dean McDonald, Marion Kay, Doris Kilburn, Helen McLean ard Clara Larson also hel out their bat averages striking out. thirteen batters, Marion Kay let Whithy down with only six hits, something which is also new in the league. After Whitby's second inning, only one batter got to third and no one got past there until the sixth when Thelma Parker got a walk, and advanced all the way around on passed balls. "Casey" struck out the side in this frame, how- ever, a feat which she also per- formed in the first, and sixth stanzas. One run was all that Whitby could manage to score in each of the three remaining innings. In the seventh Mary Forrester con- nected for a double into left, ad- vanced on a fielder's choice and scored when Isa McDonald at third found some trouble with Helen McLean's throw across the dia- mond in an attempt to catch For- rester. The eighth saw Muriel Jones draw down a walk and advance on three successive passed balls while the same thing happened again in the ninth only Mary Forrester who again did the scoring got to first by a single, Last Half Different And so the second half of the league opens with a surprise, de- lightful to some and lamentable to others, Malleable, however, de- served their victory, a fact which no one will deny, and it is very likely that they will stage several other such games as this before the race is aver, As Marion Kay goes, it almost seems, so goes the team, and when Marion Kay is serving them up in the style un- corked last night, it will take some team to beat her, With her piteh- ing as an encouragement, the team slugged the apple in a manner fit- ting for sore eyes and in general, it was a different team altogether to that which has been seen here for the most part of the year, Whitby looked a trifle below par and it may be that their gruel- ling game wth Chevrolet for the championship two days previous, had something to do with it. But they are making no alibis for last night and took their defeat in good fashion, The teams were: Whithy--Parker, cf.; L. Watson, 2h and ss.; Blow, 1b.; Scott, 3h.; Forrester, p.; BE.

For two years the Winnipeg oars- men have held possession of the Lipton Trophy; but, unlike last year when they had little opposi- tion from their United States com: petitors, they had to battle today, close finighes marking most events. The Minnesota Boat Club of St. Paul, Minn., rowed brilliantly to- day to furnis hthe opposition for Winnipeg, and finished with a to- tal of 55 points to the locals' 68.

Giants Regain Second Place Credit to Ex-Lesf -- Alexander Weakens But Cardinals Win Sto 4d NATIONAL LEAGUE New York, July 20--After holding the Phillies to one hit in eight inn- ings, Alexander was batted from the hox as the Cardinals maintained their league-leading pace by winning their fourth straight game, 5 to 4 at St. Louis today. Reinhardt re. lieved the veteran in the ninth, when he allowed the invaders four runs, William's homer in the ninth also scored Leach after the latter had singled to bring in Friberg and Thompson, The Cardinals found Ferguson for eight hits. . Robins Take Two Brooklyn made it two straight over the Pirates by winning at Pitts- burg 8 to 7, thanks to some fine pitching by Watson Clark and a bit of fancy fielding on the part of Daye Bancroft. Clark, however, was un- able to get official credit for the yictory, ws beh vent to Jim Elliott, eat Boston "Red" Lucas held the Boston Braves to eight hits, while his team- mates made eleven off Cantwell and Barnes, to win the second game of the series 4 to 3, at Cincinnati, The Reds forged ahead in the fourth when Dressen walked and re third on a sacrifice and an out and scored on Ford's single. Boston scored two in the fifth on 2 walk, a sacrifice and a pair of hits, while the Reds bunched four hits in LEADING WHITBY LADIES 26 TO 10 SPOR1 SNAPSHO1S There'll be sports to suit every taste at Lakeview Park today whem the Conservative picnic gets under way. The main attraction of course is the Peterboro-Oshawa Central League tilt. Belleville didn't visit King- ston yesterday even tho' the schedule said they should. The game has been moved to Monday might. We trust that C.0.B.L. card just as far as we can toss a piano. Belleville are quite elated over the fact that Oshawa is looking up to the Nationals in the league race. The Daily Ontario says we are all wet in calling "Inky" Woods just about the best pitcher in the loop when they have "Hoot" Gibson on their roster. We admit Gibson is a real smart hurler and that he seems to have the ability to "take" Oshawa in real style. Nevertheless if manager Walt Schultz could send "Inky" to the Motor hill, we have no hesitancy in saying that Oshawa would be on top all season instead of intermittently. The Intelligencer says "some of these eminent ball players who drift across the line" . . . . "of the umpteen diamond wonders who made Oshawa their home"-- "What players from what place drifted across' what line to Oshawa, with the exception of Sutton, the second baseman?" Sut- ton hails from South Carolina but was transferred from the Motor plant in nt to Oshawa as a skilled technical employee. What's the objection to that? Name one other Oshawa player from the States; or for that matter tell us the players on the line-up who haven't been in Oshawa for at least three years, excepting Quinn from Deloro and McCallum from Goodyear. Theo Elliott is an Oshawa boy, Nipper Jones has been in town for the last four years, coming from Toronto. Dainty and Hank Morisson are old residents. Matfhews has been here for three years coming from Toronto. Tunney Morisson is a brother of Hank and here practically all his life, moving up from junior. Reg Fair and Wolfe are Oshawa old boys. Gord Young moved up from junior and has always lived here. A cousin of Stan Burgoyne moved to California four years ago, but Stan was not apprehended and the maiden name of the person in question's mother was Smith. Malleables' girls softball team opened up at the Collegiate grounds last night and trimmed Whitby, the first-half winners, with ease. Marion Kay displayed the smartest hurling of the year when she struck-out thirteen visitors and allowed but six hits. Batting Averages of Oshawa Ladies' League Released The official batting averages of the Ladies' Softball League which follow should contain a great deal of information for the followers of the popular game, both in Oshawa and Whithy. They are complete for the last eight games played in the league this season, not counting the play-off game for the championship of the first half played be- tween Whitby and Chevrolet last Wednesday evening. During this period, each team played four games and the aver- ages very clearly show the respective merits of the four teams in the first half of the schedule just closed. The last half which will soon be well under way will probably see many changes in the official statustics. The batting averages, as a team, are particularly instructive. Whitby, who defeated Chevs 14-13 for the champiionship of the first half, led the league in group hitting with the excellent mark of .464 to their credit before they went into their hectic game with the Chevs. Chevs had an aggregate percentage of .442. Ontario Malleable came next with .339 and Buicks were last with .299, In indiviidual hitting, Thelma Parker the lead-off girl for Whitby leads the league with Doris Kennedy of Chevs close behind. Miss Parker is slugging the horsehide for an average of .680 while the speedy little third sacker for Chevs has a mark of .609. Doris Ken- nedy also has the distinction of being by far the best base stealer in these last eight games, being credited with an even dozen while her nearest rivals, "Bobs" Fulton and Ina Goold of the same team, have pilfered seven. Ina Goold, Mabel Elliott, Vivian Elliott, Bdith Elliott, Leah Holmes, Marion Kay, Doris Kilburn, Mary Blow, Effie Watson and Ruth Robertson, all have batting marks of .500 or better which is good going for a ladies' league. Mabel Elliott tops the league in home run hitting with two to her credit while Doris Kilburn, Isa McDonald, and Effie McBride have one apiece. Several girls during this period got circuit clouts but were not credited since an error was responsible, Only clean home runs are credited in the H. R. column. Chevrolet have scored the mcst runs, with a total of 111 piled up in their four games. Whitby follow with a total of 105, Malleable have 650 and Buicks 42.

Buicks on Monday Night Canadian Ladies and Supremes of the Sunnyside League Play in Whitby Tuesday After Malleable's victory over Whitby at the Collegiate grounds last might, anything is expected if the second half of the ladies' soft- ball league. Monday night Chevs play Buicks in a postponed game from last Wednesday evening and as a result of the unexpected happening yesterday, a large crowd should turn out to see what the other cellar team can do with a team having a better record for the first half. Buicks will be stronger by far than even in the recent game when they defeated Malleables and if Celia Siblock has a good night on the mound, a real game can be expected. On Tuesday night of next week Whitby town park will be the center of interest for this district when Canadians play Supremes of the well known Sunnyside ladies' major soit- ball league.
