A A a 578 PACE TWO THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 1928 | SENIOR LACROSSE TEAM DEFEATS ST. CATHARINES IN O. A. L. A. St. Catharines Lose Chance To Share Show Position Garden City Players Provide 1 J 4 f Poor Opposition for Local Seniors WHITE SCORES FOUR Blanked Until the Last Half Minute of Third Quarter By Tight Defence Makes you wonder how St. Cath- arines ever took three straight .games from Oshawa doesn't it? Saturday's game looked like a repetition of the tilt with Weston the time the Humber River players were blanked 9-0. St. Kitts did a ? little better than that, of course, only losing 9-3, but try hard though we did, simply couldn't re- concile that team with the twelve * | that slapped the locals down every time they met. The whole Oshawa team scintil- lated like a display window in a jewelry store, but so would the jun- fors against opposition like that, The visitors had all the up-and-at- 'em tactics df a centenarian, allow- ing the G.M.C. attackers to sift through the defence and pepper friend Gow with more rubbers than the veteran thought were manufac- tured. Still, one shouldn't take too much credit from the Green-shirts for seldom if ever this season have they shown such smooth team play, such accurate shooting and such a spirit of alone-in-third place. Outstanding, from a goal-getting angle was "Toots" White, clever inside home player, who counted four big goals, tricking "Farmer" Brown with consummate ease most every time he got the ball. Chuck Davidson, who is rushing the ex- Westonite for the goal-scoring hon- ors, came next with a pretty trio and Teddy Reeve and Charlie Bar- ron registered one each. Reeve's tally was his first of the season, the big hoy generally contenting himself with an occasional rush and heavy defensive work. Blanked Until Third St. Kitts never made the score- sheet until all but thirty seconds of the third guarter had heen and gone, Oille, smooth fielder from garden Gity, playing end man on Bp Wagstaffe, Peart sally, to. fool Pat Shannon for the initial coun- ter. They opened up in the final gesison by dint of much razzing from Coach Billy Hope, and out- played Oshawa during the final few minutes; but the cause was hope- less, the locals purposely easing up, except for attacks now and then, Barron counting the final tally with just a few minutes to go. The gecond quarter was the only gession to he unproductive, neither team scoring, chiefly due to sen- pational work by Gow and Shan- non. For every one that got by the St. Kitts veteran, he stopped at least seven, and the main reason for the defeat can be attributed to the porousness of the defense in front of him. . "Farmer" couldn't fathom the horin-in tactics of Toots" White with any degree of Eb success, allowing his check to work right in on Gow for the goals. Dav Smart To Silk picked out Chuck David- son as his special side-kick and gave the flashy junior a nice Lally- massage without making him back up an inch. Silk is not displaying the form her showed at the first of the season, due to injuries and he was on the penalty bench when two of the goals weer scored. The Buf- falonian, O'Brien, who scored three goals against G.M.C. when playing his first game after leav- ing Swartz's town, failed to shine with his accustomed brilliance, al- though he managed to score one goal in the last period. "Porky" Peart was the real visiting star, the youngster of the team running himself ragged trying to register, a thing he finally did two minutes after O'Brien's goal. Peart had the difficult job of passing Teddy Reeve and although he tried hard all afternoon he only succeeded once, slipping under the tall boy's arm in an inspired mo- mont. He chose the other side of the field to work in for his goal. Shepley Smithson, Pete Walsh and Spencer all combined to form an al- most impregnable defence, until the dying stages, and if they can only continue their fine work the 0.A.L.A. senior crown should drift in this direction. Kelley Degray, back again after an enforced rest, played his usual clever game, working tirelessly throughout and passing the ball to McGrath and the other front-line players with regulation and dis- patch. Boh Stephenson didn't score a goal, but neither did he receive many passes, a fact that failed to worry him as long as the others were adding them up.

Shamrcoks and Tecumsehs who battled to a 2-2 score on their first meeting finally reached a de- cision in the encounter, the Irish winning a hard-fought struggle that might have gone either way, 2-1, The first quarter was largely Te- cumsehs until the Shamrock man- agement discovered . that they were playing against 14 men, and right after the two extras were chased, play centered around the Tecumseh net. The teams falled to score in the initial session, the net-minders having little to do, due to the iron rearguard of both teams. Glass, Armour, Simmons, Cook and Hare kept the Indians from getting too close in on Tait and the Tecumsehs defence was just as effective, Armour, who stood out playing cover point for the winners, scored the first goal in the second quar. ter, when he took a pass from Ar- mitage, after the forward sprinted the whole length of the field fool- ing Blanchard on a nice spot that picked the top off the net. Campbell gave his team a two goal advantage in the final quar- ter, although the Chiefs tried hard to fool Tait, Judge saving his teammates from a blank by regis- tering right after Campbeli'a goal. Woods, Cooper, Dove and Luke were prominent for the los. ers, although the players on both teams all showed ability. The chief fault seems to be the bunch- ing around the goal, and as soon as the attackers learn to lead o % to the ball-carrier, more goals will result. The next game will be played this Wednesday night, teams: -- Shamrocks -- Goal, Tait, point, Glass, ¢. point, Armour; defence, Simmons, Cook, Hare, centre, Gif- ford, home, Armitage, Oke, Top- pings, o. home, Campbell, i. home McMurty. Tecumsehs -- Goal, Blanchard, point, Davis; e. poinf, Henley; defence, Northey, Higgins, Luke, cemige; Walter, home, Dove, Bris- tol, Judge, o. home, Wilson, {. home, Cooper.

St. Catharines didn't look so hot at Alexandra Park Saturday. They only had two players on the field who displayed any talent, "Porky" Peart and Wagstaffe working hard all through the game. The way the local gutted-stick artists handled themselves was balm for the three defeats suffered from the Garden City team on the other meetings. Four goals for "Toots" white and three for Chuck Davidson, the leading goal-scorers on the team, helped out con- Oshawa Intermcdiates are out of the 0.A.B.A. play-offs, losing to Co- bourg at Port Hope Saturday by a one-run margin.

Oshawa Wins Close Contest Juveniles Advance in O.A.B.A. Play-offs After Wonderful Game Playing sensational ball in the third and deciding game with Peter- boro Kiwanis at Port Hope Satur- day afternoon, South Oshawa Juven- iles advanced into the second round of the O.B.A. championship play downs when they defeated the Lift Lock aggregation by an 11 to 9 score in a ten inning contest. In chalking up their victory, Bob Bint's crew achieved an ambition which they have cherished for the past three years and with this success behind them, the boys are now out in earnest in fol- lowing the trail blazed by St. An- drews two years ago when they brought home Oshawa"s first Ontario championship, the Juvenile baseball crown, Knox Fans Nine Walter Knox, who went to the mound for South Oshawa in the sec- ond inning after the Petes had ham- mered Reeves for five runs, was one of the outstanding lights in Oshawa's victory, He pitched magnificent ball all the time he was on the slab and struck out nine batters besides keep- ing the hits well scattered. The win- ners outfield also. played brilliantly and in fact the whole team worked like a well-oiled and vigorous ma- chine. It was not until the fourth inning that South Oshawa climbed into the lead. In the first stanza Peterboro took too great a liking to Reeves' of- ferings and pasted the ball into vari- ous corners of the lot, when they weren't being walked, for a total of three runs. Whatley, Dallan and Starr. did the counting. Hall scored one for Oshawa in the first and while Braund and Whatley were adding two for Peterboro in the second, Hurst, James and Reeves brought in three for the Motor City to make it a 5-4 count where it re- mained until the fourth. Starting off with an error at third to help them along, South Oshawa sent Knox and Hurst across in the fourth inning to put them one run ahead while they advar-~-1 another in the fifth with (Continued on Page 10) Oshawa Intermediates Eliminated by Cobourg Sudden Death Struggle Ends | Christians' Hopes for In- termerdiate Title--Camp- bell's Clout With Butler on Second Clinches Game in Last of Eighth Losing out only by a 7 to 6 score, Christian Intermediates were defeat ed by Cobourg at Port' Hope Satur- day afternoon for the championship of the Oshawa District Intermediate Baseball League after one of the through with a double between right and center fields to score both men ahead of him. E. Campbell kept up the march with another charity but when Gower fanned Bevan, the trou- ble seemed at an end. Rollings came through with a single into right how- ever and the two Campbell brothers scored before the damage was re- paired, Carter started the ball rolling for Christians in the second inning when he cracked out a smart single into right field. Cyril Elliott forced him out at second when an attempted sac- rifice bunt was used to retire Carter instead of himself. Goodall sacrificed closest and most keenly games played in the Intermediate loop this year. The contest was a sudden death affair played on a neutral ground, in accordance with the league ruling that the teams finishing first and second in the race were to play off. It was an evenly played me throughout with pA of hitting, good fielding and some smart pitch- ing being uncorked at times. Both teams were forced to use two pitch- ers, "Lefty" Gower starting for Christians and being relieved 3 the fourth by Gord Petrie while Landy- more started for the Ferry Town ag- gregation and expired in favour of George Campbell who went in at the beginning of the fourth. Scoring four runs in the first inn- ning, Cobourg took little time show- ing Christians that they were out to bring home the pennant but when the Motor City aggregation piled up three in the second and another trio in the third, they began to feel some uneasy apprehensions, ' Cobourg eame back in the sixth however to tie up the score and then taking advantage of a break in the eighth, they shoved across the winning run which gave them the 7-6 verdict. . With such close and exciting play, it was acclaimed by all to be a worthy game for the championship. In Cobourg's half of the first, they got a break that sent them off on a flying start when Markey, their lead- off man, and second sacker, was hit by a pitched ball to be given a free ticket to first base. Butler followed with a walk while W. Campbell Came perfectly however and with Elliott safely perched on second and two out, Gower singled to score Elliott while the former advanced to third on Markey's error on Broad's ground hit ball. Broad stole second and then Creamer hit to Bevan at third who booted the ball to permit Gower to cross the plate and Broad to advance to the hot corner. Little pulled the unexpected when he bunted, permit- ting Broad to tally and himself beat- ing the throw to first by ten fect. Clarence Elliott drew a walk to fill the bases but a sensational grand- stand catch by Rollings at shortstop of Kellar's hard hit line drive, ended the inning. In the third, Cyril Elliott began the fireworks by bagging a clean hit after Carter had flied out to right field Goodall advanced Elliott to third when Rollings mussed up a ground hit ball while Gower came through with his second single in as man times at bat, to score both Elliott and Goodall. This was immediately {ol- lowed by a timely and beautiful hit from Jack Broad which resulted in an easy score from Gower. Broad was thrown out at second on Cream er's grounder while Little grounded out to first base to end the inning without any further score. bourg Evens It Up Scoreless but not altogether hitless and air-tight ball followed until the sixth when Butler and WW, Campbell evened up the count for Cobourg With two out, Butler got safely down to first: on Kellar's error and ad- (Continued on Page 10) MALLEABLES DEFEAT TORONTO SWASTIKAS .
