From every viewpoint, Friday t's card at the Oshawa Arena is i class one and should attract a ty crowd of fans and fannettes. fing being especially popular members of the fair sex. One of the reasons why 'modern ay wrestling is attracting such large owds can be attributed in part to fact that the sport has become opular with the ladies. At Tor- where wrestling is going great uns these days, about one third of attendance at wrestling shows is de up of members of the fair sex. p fact, ladies have become so inter- sted in' wrestling that special pro- is being made for them in the patter of prices.

Yesterday King- ston Ponies notified Secretary New- ton Thompson that they will play in the C.0.B.L. this season and will play their first game with Pet- erboro here on June 3. There is a chance, however, that Oshawa may make a belated application to enter the League, though King- ston are opposed to the entry. of the Motor City team, because of the long jump and the heavy ex- pense the team would meet in tra- velling there. Indicatoins are that the C.0.B. L. will carry on with the tentative schedule arranged at the meeting in Belleville last Saturday. The Ponies are confident that they will show up well in the C.0.B.L. In the outfield, they will have Bert Vince, George Ada, Tommy Boyd, Vin MeQuaid and others, while on the mound they will have '"Yam- my Jamieson and Quinn, the latter a clever left hander. Bernie Tetro and Steve Amey are available for the backstop position. It is possible that the Ponies will have Del Cherry. Efforts will be made to induce Harry Batstone who will be here this summer, to turn out. Batstone would be a wonderful ald to the nine either as a player or coach.

Pitchers Hudlin, Miller and Crag- head were hammered for 12 hits, while the most that Waite Hoyt yielded was seven.

Johnson and Walker working double steal in the very first inn- ing and again in the eighth. Chicago Sox Win Game of Errors Chicago, May 1.---Marked by many erorrs, seven in one inning, the first part of the Chicago Waite Sox and St. Louis Browns looked as though both teams could score at will, but later inn- ing took on the aspect of a ducl be- tween the pitchers.

In the second inning Appling made three errors and Kamm add- ed another to the Chicago list to account for the Brows to bring in two runs. A single counted for the other run in the second.

Chicago tied the score in the seventh and remained tied until the eleventh when Reynolds who was purposely passed came home on Cissell's single.

The Braves made their lone run in the fourth inning without the ald of a hit, a walk to Maranville, Ter- ry's base error and Berger's long fly, producing the score. Tom Zachary, Boston pitcher, sputtered Fitzsimmons' hope of a no-hit game when he singled with two out in the fifth and Earl Sheely added a single in the seventh. The Braves hit only six balls be- yond the infield and only six run- ners reached first base safely. Zachary allowed the Giants ten hits, but kept them scattered and New York was unable to score until the fifth, when Fitzsimmons' dou- ble. a wild pitch and Critz's fly tied the score. Singles by Ott.

This team was out of the Major League last season, but this year it is in again, considerably strengthened, and ready to put up a hard fight with all-com- ers for the league honors, Judging from the line-up which they have available they will be strong contend- ers for the championship, and they should put up a stiff battle against the Nationals tomorrow afternoon. Last Saturday's game, in which the Nationals lost by a single goal, the only one scored, was quite an edu- cation to the boys. 'Tomorrow, they will turn out their strongest possible team, one worthy of the city. On their record of previous seasons, they have a great reputation to uphold, and the team which will be in action against the Beaches will be the best line-up available, so that the fans will have something to please them. The Nationals, in spite of their opening defeat, are confident of bringing back a championship to Oshawa this year, and they are looking to the fans to afternoon and give them that support which is es- sential to bringing out the best ef- forts of, the players. Followers of the Nationals will be pleased to know that Bill Connors, who formerly played full back for the Nationals, has returned from the old country, and is looking forward to turning out with his old team as soon as he can be reinstated and put in good standing for the Major league. 'Bill is a clever back, and will be an added tower of strength to the Na- tionals, IN MAIN BOUT Jack Kogut, (right), Canadian Light Heavyweight champion who will be opposed by Alec Koski (left) in the main bout of the wrestling card at the Arena this evening.

NOTHING TO WEEP OVER Canada's onion week, in Janu- fry, brought tears to many eyes, but did a considerable amount of good to the onion industry, as well as to bring to light some in- teresting facts. Per capita con- sumption of onions in Canada in 1930 was about 10 pounds. In other words, this means that a to- tal of 100,000,000 pounds -- 50,- 000 tons or some 2,000 carloads-- of onions were eaten by Canadian people. This huge quantity came principally from two sources. Can- adian growers produced 29,976 tons, and something over 20,000 tons were imported from the the United States. Montreal, Canada.~The Dominion of Canada manufactures 37 per cent o fthe world's supnly of newsprint paper. Her production exceeds that of the United States, her nearest competitor, by 1,200,000 tons per year. Canadian newsprint exports are --- ceeded in value only by wheat. Ottawa, Canada.--An exhibition of water-colors shown by foremost Bri- tish artists has attracted much at- tention here and is to be taken on a tour of leading Canadian cities. It contains about '300 pieces represent- ing the work of 120 artists. Calgary, Canada. ~In two dbcadis the annual production of Alberta fac- tories has grown from $19,000,000 to more than $100,000,000 while wages and salaries paid ave increased four- fold to $16,000,000, Hargreaves Aids With Four Hits Newark, May 1 -- The Newark Bears collected 14 hits off a trio of Buitalo Bisons here yesterday to win to J.

Dale Alexan- der, slugging Detroit Tiger, went to the top when he hit safely in three out of four tries against Cleveland pitching yesterday.

"| tained from the Guy Cantrell in Good Form, Toronto Leafs Regain Lead Reading, May 1.--Guy Cantrell, the giant Oklahoma right-hander, proved that he was ready to turn in many victories this season for the Toronto Maple Leafs by pitch- ing Steve O'Neill's minion's to a 5 to 3 victory over the Reading Keystones here yesterday. The victory put Toronto in first place. Cantrell allowed ten hits, but was in trouble only in the late innings. The big right-hander, just ob- Detroit Tigers, had a hopping, fast hall and a sharp-breaking curve that kept the Keystones fooled. Cantrell was aided by the su- perb and brainy catching of O'Neill who donned the catching harness for the first time this campaign to see what the right-hander possess- ed. O'Neill learned that Cantrell pos- sessed more than a lot of stuff. The right-hander proved that he had a fighting heart by pitching himself out of several aoles in the eighth and ninth innings. In the eighth the Keys had .on¢ run across and two men on base, with none out, when Cantrell bere down to force the next three bhats- ment to sky out. One runner scored after McHenry took - fly in deep centre. In the ninth inning Reading placed runners on second and third with two'out, but Catrell torced Gecrge Quellich, Reading's leading slugger, to sky to left tc end the pastime. The Leafs practically game in the first with two out they hopped on Broadway Jones for three runs. The Canadians then were donated runs in the second and tfth in- nings, Reading misplays giving tne Leafs the markers. Toronto pound- ed out eight hits, Nolen, Richard- son and Ken Strong leading the at- tack with two each. Cantrell struck out five and walked three. Shiver"s three-bag- ger in the first inning, was the loudest hlow of the game, its drove in two runs, After two were out in the first, Rogell started the Leafs on a ral- ly by slapping a single into right. Strong singled to left and then Shiver drove the bail far over Matthew's head. When it rclled to the flagpole, Rogell and Strong scored, with Shiver racing to third. McHenry tapped to Adair and when the shortstop threw wildly to first Shiver counted the third run of the inning. on the inning, when Two vouths were discussing a mutual acquaintance.

Red Wings jolt Orioles off Top Baltimore, May 1--Rochester de- feated the Orioles here yesterday 9 to / score. Four Bird hurlers failed to check the hard-hitting Red Wings, who garnered 16 safe blows, includ- ing home runs by Myers and Cotelle and doubles by Sisler, Southworth and Jordan.
