THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST. 8, 1928 pa -- 3% f The Big Four softball title grac- the brow of Chevs, without any ment whatever, following the defeat: of Pontiacs last night at Alexandra Park, the second e of the scheduled three-game "series for the championship of the General Motors group, ! COhevs won the first game a week Y'ago 10-0 following a protest of an Do bbreviated tilt in the regular 'schedule when Pontiacs were pre- "vented from tying the score in the ninth inning by an abrupt ending. "Ike" Sutton hurled his usual {brilliant game allowing the Chiefs ".but a trio of safeties, while his _team-mates were getting to Rogers _ for nine run-getting glows. There "Jen't any doubt but that Sutton outpitched Rogers, but with tne desired support there might have . been a fairly even battle before the sisgue was decided. Pontiacs com- mitted no less than six errors, gen- jcerally at critical times, i.e, run- 'ners on bases. For six full innings the teams battled with a slight advantage for _ Chevs. before the break came, The winners registered a single tally the initial stanza and a brace of runs in the sixth, but Pontiacs were still in the hunt, Chevs, came through with a finif in the eventful seventh, when 'Rogers' delivery failed to 'puzzle and a succession of three hits, a sacrifice, plus a wild heave by Theo Elliot to the plate and general slow fielding forced Pontiacs to give up the ghost for this season. \ Sutton struck-out eight and Rog- ers three, but the ex-Hamiltonlun, breezing them up for Pontiacs, twirled sufficiently well to win most ball games, Matthews was on third with two out in the final in- ning, when Hobbs played end-man in the last of the softball battles that will go down in Oshawa his- tory, rolling out to Hubbell while the crowd wandered away reluc- tantly, 2 o| oocooooooSy o =] "ooo owonoH, T.

Learnto Swim By 4 Aileen Riggin (Olympic Diving Champion in 1920) LESSON FIFTEEN COMPETITIVE SWIMMING I heartily believe in the ad- vantages of competitive swimming and encourage all my pupils to indulge in it. I consider it invaluable for keeping a swimmer in top form because one must be careful about the diet and observe general rules of health in order to be success- ful, Then, too, it is a great force in promoting good sportsmanship and fair play. It creates confid- ence and self-reliance and is more than helpful to the competitors both mentally and physically. The above is premised on the fact that the swimmer is fully pre- pared to enter a race. If yom have not completely mastered a modern stroke or are mot in good health the result will be injurious. This warning is particularly ad- dressed to parents who allow im- mature children to enter contests when insufficiently prepared. The tendency in the above case is to overdo things. A good rule to follow is: Let the prospective can- didate demonstrate his ability in swimming about two hundred SPORT SNAPSHO1S in the to slay the major winners, Industrial and the fans will softball, the class been setuplaining ri or ht- bout ge t-along abou 15 have been the Juveniles will be in action the ment, .

The Bears have never lost hope that they would overtake the league pace-setters, but today's set- back, which saw Hankins piteh like a big-league master, finds the Leafs seven full games in front of the Bears and it looks like an im- possibility for Newark to overcome such an advantage. Hankins held the Bruins to five widely scattered hits and his vie- tory was all the more notable be- cause he conquered Al Mamaus, the ace of the Newark staff. With Mamaux out of the way the Leafs should have easysailing in the final game of the series tomorrow. "Songbird Al" has usually been a puzzle to the Leafs, but today they pounded him for thirteen hits in a little over seven innings and he finally retired to have Harvey Reese and Fred Sheridan finish the game. For six innings the contest was a fine hurling. Freerfor-all Begins, Conlan also made a great eatch at Easterling's expense in the sec- ond inning and was more or less the whole show for the Bears. He got three of his team's five hits and brought a riotous finish te his days performance by engaging in a first fight wtih a spectator who made a displeasing remark, rough play in senior games. Players Goudy of Brampton, and Shannon of St Catharines were given a two- game suspension some days ago; Bain and Degray drew their sus- a free-for-all at Ulster Stadium on Saturday last, while Carroll was sus- pended for the injury sustained by Ella of Weston in the holiday game at Ulster Stadium. Ella's nose was reported hroken when the two play- ers rlashed. Although many specta- tors thought the affair was uninten- tional on the part of Carroll, Presi- dent Kelly, of the O.A.L.A,, who was present at the game, investigated the matter, and Carroll's suspension fol- lowed, They say the corset is coming back --to stay, of course,~New York Eve- ning Post.
