Campbell) The Chevs. have their backs to the wall. Backing the superb pitch- ing of their hurler, "Toots" Har- rison, with almost perfect support, the Seiberling Ladies, Intermediate : representatives of Toronto, ad- * ministered an 8 to 3 defeat upon the 5 Oshawa Chevs. last night at Sunny- 3 side Stadium, in the first game of i the series. 5 The Seiberlings played bang-up { ball and thoroughly deserved their '* victory. Led by their stellar hurl- er, Miss "Toots" Harrison, the Seiberlings kept hammering away ~ and finally they got what they wanted, namely "breaks" and when they got them, they made them count for full value. Miss Harrison was just too good for the Oshawa girls, She started right in from .the first and went to work with a will. She fanned just fourteen batters. This is a very large number for the Chevs. but the total could have been made * much smaller. Most of the Chbvs. * persisted in taking a long hold on the bat and as a result, they were swinging after the ball had gone by. The Seiberling pitcher showed by far, the most speed that the Chevs. have met this season. She coaxed a number of the Oshawa = girls into striking out on high ones. Her control was not so good, as she issued seven walks but strangely enough, due to the lack of hits trom the-Chev. bats and the good support of her teammates, not one of the seven players who walked were able to score. Oshawa's three 'runs were scored by players who got on by hits. M. Elliott on a " gingle, V. Fulton on a double and E. Elliott on a single Viv. Elliott Hurls Well The two main factors in the Chevs' defeat were, inability to hit and too many errors. Viv. Elliott did more than her share towards winning the ball game, She pitch- ed a great game and while she was " not quite as efficient as her rival, she made the Seiberling batters, sit up and take notice. She fanned nine batters. This was marred some- what by the fact that she issued seven walks but this was due in- directly to the ragged support she received. She started right in to pitch-a winning game. She struck out Seiberlings' leading batters, Misses Harrison and Briggs, on their first trips to the plate. At 'the end of the fourth the score was 1 to 1 and the Chevs. looked good for a victory. Two hits and two er- rors gave the homesters three runs ! In the fifth inning. From then on "4 Viy. tried to overcome the faults = of her teammates by pitching hard- er but as a result, her control suf- fered a little and so, the walks, The Chevs, were outhit, 7 to 5. At times the Chevs. played ball, which drew the applause of all of the large crowd, half of whom ! "were from Oshawa. In the fourth, Seiberlings got their first two bat- ters on bases, by a single and a . walk. Two sparkling catches of += hard line drives by Mabel and Viv. Elliott and then a ground out. El- . Hott to Goold retired the side with- ; out a score. The tragedy of the ' game was that the Chevs., made five errors, five different players 'being responsible and nearly every one of the errors. counted for a run. ot, Kennedy was the best Chev. hitter, getting two safeties. * Play in Whitby Tomorrow The Chevs. are noted for the -~- display when they have to and it is well appreciated that they are Il a long ways from out of the picture. If they go in there an get hits and play a little better : vely, the Chevs. will force series to the third game. The rn game is being played at the Park, Whitby, tomorrow af- at 3.30 p.m, esentation from Oshawa is expect- to be on hand to cheer the s. in the efforts for victory. ' can do it and they know it but they will have to play their best brand of ball, and 'they know that too. ; THE GAME First Inning Chevs.--Goold struck out on a fast one, Kennedy singled to second and on a high return, 'V, El- 'liott went out swinging.

The crowded Arena was held in a spell of suspense during the 45-minute hur- ricane, and although bqth the other bouts were first-class the patrons did not care what happened after the semi-wind-up. Meyers was given the victory, and although the margin was mighty close there was no doubt but that he was the better man.

"Toots" Harrison, the speed-ball artist of the Seiberlings proved to good for the Chev. and made five errors against one. It was a real fast game and some smart softball was served up.

Time Clock and Scoreboard The General Motors Rugby Football Club have added a very vulu- t. A modern rugby scoreboard has been installed at the Stadium, in the North West corner, where it can be scen by all persons inside the Stadium. This board will be a great understand the counting of rugby, as it will give the total score of "both teams at that time and besides this, for the benefit of everyone, the clock will show how much time arter, The operator of the clock is bench and so all the spectators will know at any given tine, both the standing of the teams and the number of minutes in that quarter left to play, This should be of great help * Oshawa Player Turns Prg. from this morning's Mail and Em- Eddie Powers, coach of the Brampton Excelsiors in the lacrosse on the American reserve list, Arvey Mackie was to have play cpplured by Eddie Powers and w This is the same team which "Dut and "Dit" Clapper, an Oshawa Bruins, started out with, Oshawa in their new venture, be lield in the Y.M.CA. oie at 8 season and manager of the Boston Tigers in 'the Winter, has not been idle during the sumer months, having snared three Ontario hockeyists for his team.

Election of officers and other importa business will be discussed. Be there! % T------ THORNTON LOGAN "Logie" is another player who has been with the Blue Devils since the team first began. One of the more A-Yicate members of the team, he dis- likes the rough game of rugby and 'only plays it because he found checkers too fast.. Thornton is one of Trainer Sam Johnston's greatest worries because of his timidity. Oh Yeah! "Logie" sure knows what it's all about. During the short space of twenty-four years, he has attained the height of five feet, eleven inches and weighs, when using "pay scales," about one hundred and ninety pounds. He is undoubtably one of the most dependable defensive players on the team and is a tower of strength in the line, where he officiates at the position of "inside." Strong, b and an absolute stranger to the word "fear," he proves opposition | to opposing buckers. He is a good ball carrier and a fine plunger but he excels in. throwing his opponents for a loss, "Logie" learned of rug while attending the y ate. hen the Blue Devils first started up, he turned out and prac. pre without pads, in old clothes, His lity was unrecognized for a long while but finally he got his chance and he made good. He has been with the boys ever since and. this year, judging from' his stellar per- formance against Queens, last Satur- dar, he is in for a banner season. He be seen in action on Saturday at Hyde Reporter. Parts and Service Bowling League Now in Full Swing The Parts and Service' Bowling league held sway at the Motor City Bowling Alleys on Wednesday night. It was the second meeting of the scason and judging from the noise, rivalry afd competition, this league is in for an even better season than last year and that is saying plenty. Judging from the standpoints of, keenness of rivalry and competitipn, quality of bowling displayed, attend- ance, interest, plus "sound effects" this is without doubt, the peppiest league in the city. They certainly take their bowling seriously in this 8-team league. On Wednesday night some nice scores were turned in 'by the differ- ent members, - Theo Elliott grabbed off the high single with 265 and Cec. Locke had the high total for three games with 730. The. following is the standing of the league to date, Ist night 2nd night Standing Cadillacs 3 2 5 La Salle 3 Vikings 2 Pontiacs 2 Buicks 1 Chevys. 3 Oaklands '1 Olds'bile 1 The following are the officers of the league.

Against St. Catharines Record Crowd Expected to Attend Opening Game of Local Inter, Rugby Sea- son Tomorrow Afternoon When Blue Devilza Meet St. Kitts at Motor City Stadium at 3.00 p.m.-- Many Former ~ Supporters Coming to See Game-- Time Clock and Score board Has Been Erected The stage is set. Tomorrow after- noon at the Motor City Stadium, King St.- West, the 1930 local inter- mediate rugby season will be ushered in, with the General Motors Blue Devils and St; Catharines, the Pride of the Peninsula, playing the feature parts of the play. Never, since the General Motors Rugby Football club first organized in 1928, has so much interest been shown in the opening game of the local season. The Blue Devils made an auspicious start in "28 when they staged a sensational finish to cop the? Ontario Championship. Last year, they went down to defeat after ,an epic struggle but this season, every player has his eye and mind fixed on one definite object, a championship With this end in view, they have been practising faithfully since early in September and now they are ready to take the field in their first sche duled game. The exhibition game, against Queens Seniors at Kingston enabled Coach Dr. "Liz" Walker to judge his playgers individually and collectively. e has had them out nearly every night this week, iron ing out the rough spots. The Blue Devils made a great showing last Sa- turday but the coach is convinced that, while his team made a satisfac- tory 'showing against his old Alma Mater, they will do even better to- morrow afternoon, Injuries Will Keep Some Out The local entry has notgescapedsthe customary pre-season quota of in- juries, and a number of the regulats are doubtful starters for tomorrow. Alex. Gray, regular snap, has a hadly wrenched knee. " Big Ed. Wilson has been out of the game for more than a week. These two boys are doubt- team, including Gord. Copk, Claire Elliott and "Rainy" Lortie are also bearing symbols of duty but they will be able to perform. The remainder of the team are all sct and primed, to go. Charlie Mc- Donald and "Liz" Walker will likely take turns at handling the team from the position of quarterback. The strong Oshawa backfield division is intact and tomorrow, local sport fans will have the opportunity of seeing the strongest backfield which has ever worn the Blue and White. Bill Tribble will likely be up at snap. Bill Wanless, Captain "Hubby" Hub- bell and "Doc" Rowdén will cavort bipiny the line, Watch em go. ill. Wanless has successfully thrown off a bad cold and it is ex- pected that he will hit his stride to- morrow, and show some of his pow- erful line-plunging and ball-carry- ing "ability, that made him the star of the London "Gas House Gang," now The Tecumsehs, in the past few years, Scott Hubbell is booting the old "pigskin" farther than ever this year and from present indications is in for his greatest year. His running mate, "Doc" Rowden, is generally considered one of the best broken field runners developed in the East for some time and he will be present. "Nuff said St. Catharines Are Strong St' Catharines, led by the diminu- tive star, "Porky" Peart, are fairly confident after their decisive win over the Niagara Falls "Cataracts" last Saturday, in the group opener, but they realize that the Blue Devils will prove sterner opposition. Likely "Duke" Diggins will be back in ac- tion with some more of his sensa- tional runs. St. Kitts, made it very interesting for the Blue Devils last year, the score of the game in the Garden City being only 4 to 0. St. Kitts, are reputed to be even strong- er this year so the locals can look for a tough battle Playing at Motor City Stadium This will be the first time that the Blue Devils have played a rugby game at the Motor City Stadium. This field will be a big improvement over the Park as far as the specta- tors are concerned, there being bleacher accommodation for 4,000 people. Judging from the advance sale of tickets, there is going to be a good crowd in attendance. : Many Visitors Coming Many people who formerly lived in Oshawa and who still have a very ful starters. Several others of the vital interest in the welfare of the ') Saturday for Blue Devils, will be in Oshawa on the opening game. Harry Carmichael, Pres. of MacKin- non Industries, of St, Catharines will be on hand. Bert, Jenner, formerly an active member of the club, but now of Toronto will be down, offici- ating at his old duties of head lines- man, Oscar Baird, another former member of the club, now of Toronto, will also likely be on hand. Don. Bailes, born and brought up in Osh- awa, playing with the boys in "28, a little, later of Toronto and now Gen- eral Manager of a general store in Millbridge, Ontario, is making a special trip to see the game. H. D. Harris, Asst. Comptroller of General Motors Corporation in Detroit, will be on hand with Russ. Wilbur and Don. Swartz, two vice-presidents of the club. D. A, Hubbell, Me. Bowers, Alex. Park, Fred Bond, Don Paul will all be here as well as two well known Canadian artists who take a great deal of interest in the team, Harry Pinkerton and Johnny war- wick. Johnny Warwick is the artist who contributed all of the Blue Devil's cartoons. These are only a few of the many Blue Devil fans who will be in Oshawa on Saturday, on purpose to see the opening gamé. Time Clock and Scoreboard The rugby fans of the city will be very pleased to hear that a modern, combination time clock and score- board is being erected at the Stadium for the benefit of the fans. The board will be placed in the North- West corner of the Stadium and will be in plain view of everyone. The operator of the board is connected directly with the timers' bench and so the spectators will know just how many minutes of the particular quar- ter, are left to play. Besides this, the score will be given. No matter how well acquainted with the rules and points scored, a spectator may be, he often loses, in the excitement of the game. This board will give the score by each quarter and so, by means of this new board, the spec- tators will be able to tell, at a glance, the score of both teams, at that time and the numbenpof minutes left to play in that quarter. This should prove a big help to those fans who are not very familiar with the scor- ing of a rugby game. Everything points to a very suc- cessful season" and the Blue Dewils are determined to get «ff on the right foot, tomorrow afternoon, by treat- ing the large crowd which will at- tend the game, to a2 smart game of regby and a home-team victory, The game is caidled for 3.09 o'clock at the Motor City Stadium and the admis- sion is fifty cents.
