THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1928 PAGE SEVEN RUGBY SQUAD HOLDS WORK-OUT; 0.A.S.A. FINAL HERE TOMORROW Over Thirty Players Out For Initial Full Dress Practice Prospects Look Bright for an Excellent Intermed. jate Rugby Team Here This Year if Sufficient Backing is Forthcoming-- Full Dress Work All This Week -- Oackling Last Night All colours of the rainbow were in evidence at Alexandra Park last night when over thirty rugbyists athered wearing seclf-supplied uni- orms, for the initial full i work- out of Oshawa's Intermediate rugby squad. The work-out got underway shortly after six o'clock and contin- ued with unabated enthusiasm until the lights came on and the good old pigskin was little more than visible as it twisted through the sky, pro- pelled by someone's educated boot. Tackling practice was mainly in- dulged in last night with the squad being divided into fours and sent down the field under kicks to bring down either of the pair of half backs who were waiting at the other end of the field to catch and kick and at- tempt to run it back down the field. About eight half backs were worn out by the tacklers, so surely and so strenuously were they getting their men, In this manner of practice, both half line men and linesmen were get- ting a real conditioning and with the work-out winding up with a run around the field, if this continues for a week, the team should be in excel- lent shape to start scrimmage work and get down to business in earnest, Many more players than those out last night are expected to show up before the end of the week. That a great amount of interest is being manifest in the team is shown by the crowd which was on hand last night only to see the boys go through their first limbering-up process and to see how they performed, Everyone was confident that Osh- awa has the material for a fine team, especially after they had seen the style of the players who were out last night, Plenty of weight and speed was in evidence while there is an abundance of experienced players to balance the team, The following 'is only a partial list of the players who already have or are intending to turn out: Snaps, Alex Grey, hoi, and Jack Fer- uson, O.C.I, Insides, Frank Black .C.I,, Stan Blair, Oshawa, Gord Cooke, Lindsay C.I, Ted Clough 0.C.I,, Toots Last, Dundas, Middles, Al Moore, Pickering and Varsity Orphans, Murray Johnston, 0.C.I., Fitches, Oshawa and Bailes M.C.C Qutsides, Kilmer Western Univer- sity, Wiggington, Winnipeg Tigers, Kohen O.C.I, Sheppley W.O.SSA,, Millichamp 0O.C,I, Ridley and Eagleson O.C.I.

Ottawa, Sept. 24 --Winnipeg: Well ingtons held Ottawa in 8 to a S-all tie in the second game of the Mann Cup series for Dominion la- crosse honors at Lansdowne Park this afternoon. The locals won the first game on Saturday 8 to 3, but today's stalemate will necessitate a third match as the titular series is a two- out-of-three affair, The third game will be played tomorrow, Today's game, which was bitterly fought from start to finish, went into ten minutes overtime before darkness finally necessitated a halt, The extra period and part of the final quarter were played in semi-darkness which hindered the teams and was a handi- cap to the spectators, The Wellingtons showed a vast im- provement over their game on Satur day and their whirlwind attack caught the local twelve unawares in the opening period, Emmetts fought back courageously and twice came from behind to overcome a three and and two-goal lead, tying the count with less than a minute to play in the final frame. M, Hardy was the star of the Wel- lington attack, running in three of his team's counters, Charlie Connell and Ed, Mulroney, as in the first en+ counter, were Emmett thorns in the goalward charges of the Westerners, CANADIAN NATIONAL RAIL. WAYS New Servce to Edmonton In order to cope with the heavy travel to points in Western Canada, Canadian National Railways have arranged to place their crack train, "The Confederation," on completion of its summer schedule, on the run between Toronto and Edmonton, The last trip to Vancouver will be on September 26th from Toronto, and the first Edmonton train will leave Toronto on Thursday, September 27. The through equipment will consist of standard and tourist sleepers, din- ing cars and Compartment--Obserya- tion--Library Cars, the latter being cquipped with Radio, The service will afford every facil- ity for Christmas and New Year's Travel in both directions, and this, together with the high standard of Canadian National operation, will en- able the train to retain in a full mea- sure the popularity it now enjoys with the travelling public, Any Canadian National Agent will gladly furnish further details, we were unable to get but who made a splendid showing, There is still room for more players and anyone thinking they would like to try out are welcomed with open arms to the nightly workouts which get under way about 6.30, Everyone has an equal chance at present to make the team and all that is necessary at present to turn out and make a place is your old rughy uniform and some ambi- tion., : 16 Simcoe Stwest Sows day night, Mundy Bldg.

All seven of New Yorks rums came on homers into the right- field stands, four of them in all. Two of the circuit drives came from the bat of Frank O'Doul. In the first inning he broke the ice with a four-bagger with no one on base, and in the third he repeated the act, scoring Welsh ahead of him, Mel Ott followed O'Doul's first homer with another just like it, Jackson drove out the fourth homer of the day to break a tie score in the eighth. This wallop accounted for three runs, as Lind- strom and Terry had singled before Jackson came to bat, Larry Benton, New York's pitch- ing star, won his twenty-fifth vie- tory of the season, but failed to show his usual effectiveness, The Reds hit freely off his delivery, getting eleven safeties, but none of them went for four bases, and the brilliant errorless support the Giants gave their moundsman pull- ed hm out of several difficulties. Except for the . four homers he yielded, Kolp pitched an effective game for the Reds, He gave only nine hits, and few of the five that did not go into the stands counted.

Today the first heavy scrimmage drill was ordered by Coach Flanagan, and although it was a comparatively short one this year's hopefuls were able to get some idea of the thoroughness with which McGill's former star half- back intends to drill his squad, The flock of eager recruits were first given a warming up practice on the dummies, and then divided into two squads and lined up for scrim- mage, Tremain and Brown were put on the half line of one squad, and Doherty, who reported in today, and Loyering and Kritzwiser were assig- ned to duty on the other backfield. Then the fun began, The halfbacks carried the ball on extension plays, hen the scrim- mage started there were about a dozen subs of assorted sizes on the side lines waiting to get into the fuss, They got their chance before the scrimmage went very far, Coach Flanagan drove the two squads at each other with the fury of a league contest, and before the half-hour drill was over the substitutes had worn a beaten path to the side lines, WEATHERMAN SERVICE FOR AEROPLANES Ottawa, Sept. 24.--Ground to air radio communication has already been shown to be practicable by the Royal Canadian Corps of sig- nals which points to the possibil- ity of establishing meteorological service to planes in flight as sug- gested in the recommendations of the Court of Enquiry into the dids- appearance of the Vancouver-Seat- tle tri-motor plane recently, ac- cording to apnouncement today by G. J. Desbarats, Deputy Min- ister of National Defence, CANDIDATE ELECTROCUTED Vancouver, Sept. 24.--As a re- sult of coming into contact with a live wire carrying 40,000 volts, J. B. Brown, employed in a substa- tion of the British Columbia Elee- tric Company, died here today. Brown received terrible burns, but he was able to walk to the am- bulance upassisted.

It was indeed a snappy~workout which was held at Alexandra Park last night by the Intermediate rugby prospects. more are expected out before the end of the week. Over thirty were on hand and Tackling practice was the order of the day and for tle first full-dress work out, the team looks good. Everyone of the thirty or more players stuck right to their job for over an hour and a half and wound up the work- There was every kind of a sweater being worn by the players last night from pure white to all black. There were two boys out in white sweaters last night, and one new boy wearing one of these, whose name we were unable to get, displayed some of the nicest tackling seen during the evening. Blue and white colours and a dark and light blue sweater almost made the ocean shade the predominant colour but with a couple of Oshawa Col- legiate green, gold and red pullovers, a red Chev-National softball sweater and "Shorty" Millichamp's black and orange rugby outfit, the various re- maining shades of the rainbow were well in evidence, Just exactly what will be the club's uniform colours has not yet been decided but it has been fairly well agreed that they won't be too offensive as far as the colour combination is concerned. An all black with two or three thin white stripes'has been suggested from several quarters. Hank Johnston got the first trade mark of the season last night when he missed a tackle but connected with "Wink" Gummow's heal as he was going past. Four stitches fixed the eye up all right however, There should be an interesting discussion at the meeting of the Inter- mediate hockey team when they meet to start the season's activities next Friday night at 8 o'clock in Welsh's parlours, We'll allow three guesses on team arc excellent but you can't play Chevs are holding a practice tonight in preparation for their battle to- morrow with Hamilton Wentworth Radios. n ] m expected to be on hand since everyone wants to be in ship-shape condition Every member of the team is Toronto has changed its tune slightly since last week about the Queen The following was in this morning's ~ It is strictly up to some Toronto senior football team to win the the Queen City's portion in major The Toronto entry in the National Hockey glory, St, Simon's failed to win the senior lacrosse title, and the Leafs, after leading most of the way, were unable to finish first in th International Baseball League.

PIRATES DIVIDE PAIR WITH BRAVES Boston, Sept. 24.--The Pittsburg Pirates had to work overtime to get an even break from tho Braves here today, The visitors took the first game 3 to 1 in ten innings on Adams' triple, singles by Lloyd Waner and Traynor and a poor throw by Brown. In the closing contest, Bob Smith held the Pirates to seven hits and the Braves took the game 4 to 2, Mueller and Bell were the lead- ers at hat, while Lloyd Waner's shoe-string catch off Spohrer"s bat in left centre in the eighth was the fielding feature, Score: First game-- R HE Pittsburg 010 000 000 2-3 10 1 Boston 010 000 000 0-1 7 2 Batteries--Hill and Hemsley; Cantrell, Delaney and Taylor, Second game-- R H Pittsburg 000 100 001-2 7 1 Boston 010 001 02x-4 19 1 Batteries--Blankenship and Har- grave; R, Smith and Spohrer, PERCY WILLIAMS ANNOUNCES PLANS Vancouver, Sept. 24.--Percy Willlams, who won the 100 metres and the 200 metres world's track championships at the Olympic games in Amsterdam, Holland, in July and who was the only com- petitor to score victories in two events, has announced that he will remain in Vancouver for another year, He then plans to take a course of study at the University of Washington, Weekly Prize Winners at Motor City Alleys The following were the weekly prize winners for the past week at the Motor City Alleys. High single for ladies goes to Miss D. Moffatt with 218 in single game. For ten pins, M, Sutton won with 208, while the high single for men in five pins stands at 386 single and there is a five dollar gold piece waiting for any bowler who rolls a higher score, The bowlers so far this season are keener Than ever they were in Oshawa and we don't think that 386 will stand very long as quite a few have already nearly pulled it down, Miss Moffatt's score is not only high for the week but high for the season, TACTICAL PURPOSES GOVERN SIGNATURE -- London, Sept. 24--A Riga despatch to The London Times says that M, Voroshiloff, Soviet War Commissar, stated in a speech in Kiey that the Soviet Government has never con- sidered the Kellogg pact seriously, and signed it merely for tactical purposes in order to prevent other powers from accusing Soviet Russia of "Red" imperialism. He assured his bearers that the danger of war was real and that the vernment had not exaggerated its character nor de- yoted undue attention to strengthen- ing the Soviet forces, since "without the Red army we could not continue Chevs Confident They Will Win Game Tomorrow With their final practice beinp held at Alexandra Park tonight, George Hill and his fast travelling Chevrolets are confident they will make an excellent showing for them selves im their first game of the finals for the Intermedi- ate championship of Ontario against Wentworth Radios of Hamilton which is to be play- ed here tomorrow. The ser ies which begins at Alexandra Park at 5.15 o'clock tomor- row night will be the climax for Chevs of the most success- ful year in their eventful his- tory since they were organ- ized "three years ago, A win here will place them in a de- cided advantage for the return game in Hamilton on Friday and the largest crowd to at- tend a goftball game yet this season 1s expected to be on hand to see the encounter, which to say the least prom- ises to be a hectic one. Athletics and Yanks Beaten in American New York. Sept. 24.--The rela- tive status of the New York Yanks and the Philadelphia Athletics in the race for the American League pennant remained unchanged to- day. The Yanks lost the second game of the Cleveland series four to three, but the Athletics also lost in favor of the Yankees. With only six games left for New York and five for hiladelphia, the two- game margin by which the Yankees lead grows relatively larger every day that neither makes a gain. "Lefty" Walter Miller, who beat the Athletics last week for Cleve- land's only victory in 16 games, pitched the Indians to victory to- day, The Yankees got only five hits off Miller, while the Indians battered Pipgras from the box with nine, then obtained two more off the delivery of *"Lefty5' Heit mach. It was the third unsuccess- ful start of the present western tour for Pipgrus. Cleveland scored two runs in the second inning to take the lead after the Yankees had tallied once in their half of the frame. Hod- app and L., Sewell singled, Tucker sacrificed and Dorman sent the two runners home with another single. The Indians scored a third run in the 1 ona do by J. Sewell, followed by a single by Hodapp. The winning run was scored In the sixth inning after the Yanks had tied the count in the fifth, Hodapp opened the frame with his third successive single, and came home on Luke Sewell's long triple over Ruth's head, This blow ended Pipgras's stay in the box and brought Heimach to the res- cue, EXPERIMENTS IN TOBACCO GROWING Edmonton, Alta., Sept. 24 --Ex- periments in tobacco growing by the Department of Agriculture at Lethbridge station have proved so successful that they will he con- tinued, according to a statement made by Dr. J. H, Grisdale, of Ot- taaw, deputy minister of agricul- ture, It is the intention to con- tinue the experiments, the results having been fairly satisfactory, as it is believed there is a big oppor- tunjty for that industry in Alberta, The draw for the first round of the open temmis tournament to be held at the Oshawa Tennis Club this week was made this morning with 24 entrants for the singles tournament and eight teams for the doubles.

Toronto, Sept. 25.--Walkerville Chicklets won the O.B.A.A. junior championship by defeating Tim- mins for the second straight time yesterday at Viaduct Park, 36 to 3. The representatives from the Bor- der Cities completely out-clgssed the Northerners in every depart- ment of the game, and at no time during the game was their super- jority questioned. The winners scored eight runs in the first inning, getting seven hits, whil@ the Miners' infield went to pieces, From there on it was a parade, Walkerville scoring in every inning but the second and fifth, The high light was reached in the sixth, when they pushed over ten runs, Brown, on the mound for the Borderites, completely mastered the losers, striking out sixteen, get- ting the side on two occasions, Stewart, Murtagh. and Brown were prominent on the offensive, divid- ing fifteen hits evenly between them, Roberts got three of the losers' hits, ene a triple, Dainton supplied the fielding feature, a great running catch, Giallonardo was the best for the losers. TEUTONIC INGENUITY (Kitchener Record) Women are often injured while alighting from street cars and buss« es because many of them hold on with the right hand, and thus dis= mount facing the rear. A street car company in Germany, however, with true Teutonic ingenuity, has discovered a means of converting them. A mirror is placed In the fors ward side of the ear exit, Thus, when a girl or matron prepares te get off, they discover it and invare iably, pause for a moment to view herself in it. And this brings her into the proper position to step orf the car--holding on with her left hand, and facing the front!
