et a -- THE SPORTING WO OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, Oshawa F ootballT eam Hold TorontoCrew I-1 Local Eleven Had Two Instances of Hard Luck, When Goals Should Have Been Awarded--British Im- perials' Goalie Played a Strong Game The second division T. & D. match between Oshawa and British perials in Toronto on Saturday after- noon was scheduled to take place at Earlscourt Park but owing to the field being in bad condition, it was transferred to Allis Chalmers foot- ball grounds. The result of a hard fought game was a draw, each team scoring one goal, Referee Milsup lined the teams up as follows: British Imperials-----goal, Burch; backs, Fraser and Brown; half backs, Compson, Goldsworthy and Turriff; forwards, Rigley, Archer, Brockbank, Scott and Hatch. Oshawa--goal, Bouckley; backs, BE. Brown and Robertson; half backs, Lyons, Reid and Sidaway; forwards, Hayball, Sturch, Nichols, Gow and King. Oshawa Scores First Oshawa were forced to face a stiff: breeze in the first half but held their own from the start. After about ten minutes of give and take play, during which Oshawa forwards showed some brilliant eombination, a pass splendidly placed by Sidaway was headed into the net by Sturch, This was certainly encouraging and put the small band of Oshawa fol- lowers in good spirits, Imperials tried hard for the equalizing goal and sent in several good shots but superior work by Bouckley saved the gituation. The Oshawa defence held their opponents well out. Nichols and Gow then started a combined movement, Gow placing the ball for- ward past the backs and slipping throngh once again placed the ball in the net, only to be ruled offside. This was real hard luck as it was un- doubtedly 'a fair goal, Nichols being well behind Gow when the latter made the forward pass. Half time arrived with Oshawa leading 1-0 Toronto Goalie Good The second half opened with both teams showing great determination, Im-! one to equalize the count, the other to. hold their lead and, if possible In- crease it. The visitors were easly holding their own and several well directed shots were splendidly saved by the Toronto goalie, One hard ! Burch was barely able to deflect over the bar. On another occasion Burch fell on the ball to save a goal but the Oshawans could not get the pigskin between the posts. The second piece of hard luck then occured for the visitors after BE. Brown had cleared, The home cen- tre forward stopped the ball with his hand and the inside left rushing up shot it into the net. The referee apparently did not see the foul. Osh- awa then launched a strong attack but try as they would they could not secure the winning goal, although the play was very much in their favor. Time after time they swept down the field with splendid com- bined efforts but nothing resulted, the soft condition of the field spoil- ing well directed passes, Full time came with the scere one each, Visitors Played Well The local eleven are well satisfied with taking one point from the strong Toronto team but they really deserv- ed to win and two bad mistakes on the part of the referee cost them the game. It would be unfair to single out any one player as a star, every {ove giving his 'best and proving them- | selves to be 90 minute players. The { forwards were handicapped by the | condition of the grounds but with the | services of D. Brown and Harry | Payne again Oshawa made such ex- cellent showing that there is no {doubt but they will come out on top { when the final table is made up. | After the game Imperials enter- | tained the visitors to a fine supper {durinz which the president of the {Toronto Club welcomed them and | commented in sporting spirit on the | game, to which Mr. State, of Oshawa (suitably replied. | VICTORIA UNITED HERE SATURDAY Victoria United will oppose the Oshawa Football team at Alexandra Park next Saturday afternoon gecond division T. and D.

"Mickey" Murray, the Petes third baseman, and Lornie Rose, pitcher, will be found in Leaside with George Peacock, along with the $1,000 cheque recently received from W. C.

The other teams undoubtedly will be strong and will furnish keen opposition to all com- ers, Port Hope are well contented with the pitching staff they have se- cured and with Reg, Fair, the Osh- awa star again in the outer garden, they have no cause to worry. Belleville Lands Verona Southpaw The management of the Belleville C. 0, B. League team has announc- ed the arrival in town of a pitcher. Frank Williams, a southpaw, who hails from Verona. Williams is go ing to work in the Quinte City. It was also announced that all the talk about Tommy Wilson, of Perth, loca ting there was wrong.

As a trouble doctor, he hrings about interesting situations which he leaves the other members of the cast to un- tangle, maintaining to the end a smiling, debonnair demeanor which it is hard to resist, and which proves absolutely fatal to Miss Billie Emer- son, as Mary Gray, a regular girl, who, in addition to being of un- ucually attractive appearance, con- tributes sprightly dancing and clever singing. Another interesting char- acter is Miss Ione O'Donnel, who makes a charming Cynthia Rose, the young mountain girl, The ensemble consists of these ber of chorus girls, who, aniongst the lavish setting of the play, are extremely effective.
