Second Hall Service Club | Schedule The schedule of second half of the Service Club Softball League has been announced by "Army" Armstrong, convenor, the second half calls for six games to be played the first of which will be between Oshawa Railway and the Rotary Club, The game will be played at Kotary Park on Tuesday, August 25. It is pointed out that all games will start at 045 pm, All games will be played at Rotary Park. The schedule is as follows: Tues., Aug. 25th, Oshawa Rly vs. Rotary. Thurs., Aug. 27th, Legion, Tues., Sept. 1st, Rotary vs, Legion Thurs., Sept. 3rd, Oshawa Rly. vs. Kinsmen vs. Tues, Sept. 8th, Kinsmen vs. Ro- Thurs., Sept. 10th, Oshawa Rly vs. Legion. | | QPORT SOT { i Malleables and Chosen Friends in Whitby The softball fans in Whitby will be given a treat on Saturday night when Ontario Malleables and the {Chosen Friends will play a postponed lcugue game in the town park there. The game which will get under way at 6.45 should attract a good crowd of fans as there are several players from the County Town on both teams which lends a local angle to the game. . = » L Intermediate Tennis Team to Belleville The intermediate team representing the Oshawa Tennis Club are playing in Belleville to-morrow against the Regis Club of Kingston with the championship of the Eastern Ontario Tennis League at stake. The Oshawa club were winners of the western section of the League, beating out Whitby last year's finalists in the final game of the section. Regis Club, of Kingston, defeated Pt, Anne in the eastern section. The games will be played on the court of the Belleville Golf and Country Club on the Bay of Quinte in truly beautiful surroundings. If Oshawa are able to put their best team in the field they should not have much trcuble in winning, but of course, there is always the chance of it being someone's off day, * L] * * Playoff Game at the Stadium To-night The interest of all real softball fans in the city should centre on the Motor City Stadium this evening, for it will be the scene of the second game for the Ontario playdown between Bryson's, of Lindsay and The Daily Times. The game in Lindsay on Wednesday was a thriller from all accounts and ended dramatically in the ninth inning after two men were out with a home run, that had the home crowd by the ears. While Garrard pitched nice ball in Lindsay, the "Newsies" still have Guiltinan and Magill in reserve in case of trouble. The teams arc so closely matched that it would be unfair to either to call a winner, but it is at lcast safe to say that the game will be a good one with The Times trying their best to stretch the series to a third game. * * * » Cricket Notes The Oshawa Cricket Club will play a friendly game with Peterbor- ough C. C. at Peterborough on Saturday, August 22nd, The following players are requested to be at Centre Street at 12.30 pm. F. Larmouth, L. Phillips, F. Prosser, F. Hodgkinson, G. Dewberry, G. Mann, W.| Moore, B. Anthony, W. Sargant, R, Drummond, J. Chappell, F. Whit field, and R. Gibson . » = * *® 0.A.L.A. Playoff Series The finals of the O.A.L.A. have at least been reached with Native Sons and Brampton meeting in the first game of the championship round on Saturday afternoon at Ulster Stadium, The Excelsiors have proved themselves one of the pluckiest clubs in this year of sport with their from behind when elimination seemed cer- were taced with the respon- remarkable rallies to come tain, With the season just starting they sibility that their team would have to be rebuilt due to the inroads of the professionals, byt undaunted they cailed in some of their intermedi- ate material and carried on in a fashion which has carried them to the finals of the Ontario association senior series. » . * * Mike's Place in the Driver's Seat What a weird game that must have been in Alliston yesterday, the wonder of it is that the Oshawa players did not drop over with the exhaustion brought on by running the bases. The home team showed in every department of the game that*they were no match for the Osh- awa team. Five hits was the sum total of thicir hitting against Towns who struck out eight batters and contributed a home run to help his teaminates along. Peterson was the big gun of the game with two cir- cuit blows in successive times at bat. 32 to 3 may be a large score and way effect the crowd turning out here, but Alliston must have been off as they are the winners of their own district and must have shown better ball * * * * W. H. Karn Was in Charge The Times has learned that the reoort of the proceedings of the golf tourney played between Cobourg and Oshawa here on Wednesday was in error in as much as it was stated that Fred Carswell was in charge of the arrangements and acted as master of ceremonies at the dinner following the games. In all fairness to W. H. Karn who really was the main link in the whole proceedings The Times wishes to state that Mr, Karn and not Mr, Carswell was in charge of the day's play in the absence of Dr. Henry the club captain. Official Umpire A. C. Love, ROYALS DEFEATED | LEAGUE LEADERS | | Montreal, Aug, 21--Lefty Claset | | went in against Newark for the third time in as many days and shut | them out without a hit over the last | !three innings as the Royals defeat- | ne ed the Bears in the fourth game of | the series, here yesterday afternoon of the series. Head and Gulley led the Royals at bat, each with three hits, Dusty Cooke got three for three, includ- ing a double on the Newark side, Mangum and then Mamaux were knocked out by the Royals. Sherid started for Montreal, - survived a bad fifth but was removed in the seventh when Cohen greeted him with a double. ROCHESTER RALLY BEATS BALTIMORE Rochester, Aug. 21--After being blanked for six innings Rochester broke through and scored two runs at one hit in the seventh and added another pair in the eighth to defeat Baltimore here yesterday, The Wings were helpless before the slants of Monte Weaver most of the way but were aided by some slow defensive work on the part of the Orioles, Carman. Hill, who, relieved Ray Moss after the latter had been hit with a line drive-in the third inning no one out, turned in a ciass: performance, holding the Birds scoreless the rest of the route, She (in a sentimental mood): You know, T'd love a little home of my own, It was Ciaset's second win | « "HOW SWIM Martha Noreliur Wright USE YOUR HEAD! PEA To "use your head" | do not necessarily mean to "keep your head", 'ou will find that the practice outlined in these lessons, and the gradual ¢ of confidence developed by doing the strokes themselves helps you to keep your head naturally, and even in ticklish spots youu will uncon- ! sciously rely on yourself, | In the crawl stroke the balance of the swimmer is maintained largely hy the head. The sideways twist of the head must be exactly timed to the stroke or the movement will throw the body out of line and render the down stroke with the opposite arm meffectual. Be sure to see that the under-arm is making its downward sweep through the water before turning the head tor the breath. Otherwise the shoulder will be depress- ed into the water. Similarly the head should not be returned to normal before the top arm has applied its power, since this will in turn depress the other shoulder. (See illustration accompanying the first article of this series and dia- gram below.) For the rest the head should be held as it is when you are standing erect, and should not be consciously raised or lowered past this very normal position. Do not try to keep the head out of the water by forc- ing it up. Correct position will be assumed naturally by your progress through the water, The recovery of the arms after they have swung back through the water should be slow. In fact the arm should be so timed that it is possible completely to relax it for an instant before bringing it up and over for the succeeding stroke. This pause not only aids tremendously in the smooth working of thé stroke but it enables you to increase your distance without arm fatigue, ® A NEW USE FORTHE HEAD, He: Yes. If you had one we could get matgied, > THREE HOME RUNS BEAT ST. LOUIS St. Louis, Aug. 21--Tied for the major league home run lead when Lou Gehrig clouted his 33rd four- bagger of 'the season in the fourth inning. Babe Ruth came through in the ninth, slamming his 34th cir- cuit swat clear over the roof of the stands when the bases were full and giving the New York Yankees a 7 to 3 victory over St, Louis. : Home runs accounted for all the Yankee runs. In addition to the swats by Ruth and Gehrig, Joe Sewell hit for the'circuit in 'the fifth. Vernon Gomes, Yankee pitcher, came close to scoring the New Yorkers' first shut-out of the sea- son, but weakened in the ninth after holding the Browns to one hit in cight innings. In the ninth, four hits and an error gave St. Louis all its runs, Sam Gray started for the Browns, and Wallace Herbert hurled the last and most costly inning, THIRD STRAIGHT LOSS FOR WASHINGTON Cleveland, Aug. 21--Slamming Fred Marberry and Carl Fischer hard, the Cleveland Indians handed the second-place Washington Sena- tors their third straight setback yesterday, 10 to 8. It was Mar- berry"s third defeat of the year, against 14 victories. Sergeant George Connally, who won Wednesday's first game by res- cuing Wesley Ferrell, came in to stop a late rally at the expense of voung Mel Harder, who, however, was credited with the win. Earl Averill connected for his 27th homer of the season in the cighth, breaking the record for home runs held by any Indian play- er. Porter led the attack with five singles in five trips, | BROOKLYN CLIMBS BY CHICAGO'S LOSS » Brooklyn, Aug. 21.--Babe Her- man's double with the bases full climaxed a four-run rally in the eighth inning yesterday and gave the Brooklyn Robins a 4-to-1 de- cision over the Chicago Cubs In a pitching duel between Watson Clark and Charley Root, They fought on even terms through the first seven innings, each pitcher allowing three hits. Then, with two out in the Brook- lyn half, Clark and Frederick sin- gled and Cuyler booted Freder- ick'd ball to give them both an ex- tra base. O'Doul was purposely passed, and Herman came up to clear the bases with a double. Bissonete's single brought in the fourth run. Clark weakened badly in the ninth. After Cuyler led off with a triple and scored on Frederick's error, Clark walked three men to fill the bases, and Jack Quinn was called in to retire the last bats- man. HUBBELL SHADED CINCINNATI REDS New York, Aug. 21. -- Carol Hubbell had a shade the betier of Larry Benton in a pitchers' duel vesterday, and the New York Giants defeated the Cincinnati Reds for the second successive time, 3 to 1. The victory, coupled with Chi- cago's defeat, gave the Giants a full game margin over the Cubs in their battle for second place. Benton gave only seven hits to nine off Hubbell, but three of them, with Benton's error, gave the Giants two runs in the sixth, Fred Leach hit a home run in the eighth for the final New York tal- ly 'Cincinnati's one run wag scored in the eighth on singles by Crab- tree, Hendrick and Cuccinello. HOME-RUN STANDING Home runs yesterday--Ruth, Yankees, 1; Gehrig, Yankees, 1; Sewell, Yankees, 1; Averill, In- dians, 1; Morgan, Indians, 1; Leach, Giants 1.

Total, 856. MAPLE LEAFS TAKE FINAL FROM SKEETERS Spotting the Skeeters two runs in the first innings yesterday, the Leafs overcame that handicap in their half and then went on to win 9-5 for Johnny Allen's nine- teenth victory of the season and fourteenth as a Toronto work- man. The victory gave the Leafs the series three games to one and a 16-8 edge in their 24 games played with the Skeeters in the campaign rapidly drawing to a close. The Leafs retained their half-game hold on fourth place. Eight of the Leafs nine runs were reeled off in the first four innings, seven of them at the ex- pense of George Miner, who was lifted in the fourth in favor of Joe Hartman with a man on base. Before Joe could run down the third out he had yielded enough hits to score the Leafs left on the runways by Miner and an- other run in addition, But after the fourth the Fleet Streeters took few liberties with the ex-Montrealer and in their lagt four turns at bat they clip- ped but three hits and scored once, the run resulting from two hits and an error on a ground ball by George Selkirk in right field. Miner was treated to a severe lacing while he lasted, the Leafs paddling him for ten for their 16 hits and four of the ten were doubles by Harry ' Davis, Ken Strong, Ray Morehart and Mar- vin Owen. Hartman was pasted for a triple by Morehart and a double by O'Neill in the fourth after relieving Miner, ATHLETICS HAVE DAY OFF Chicago, Aug. 21.--The Phila- delphia Athleties conducted them- selves like anything but cham- pions yesterday and the White Sox evened the series by winning, 11 to 6. The Sox pounded Eddie Rom- mel and Waite Hoyt for 19 hits, and, aided by four errors, had no trouble in winning. The Ath- letics knocked Alphonse Thomas from the box, but he received credit for the victory. Philadelphia took the lead in the fifth, but the Sox came back to score six runs on five hits and two errors. It was Chicago's third victory in 17 starts with the world cham- pions. EIGHT EX-LEAFS PLAY FOR DETROIT Detroit, Aug. 21.--The Detroit Tigers pounded out a 7 to 2 vie- tory over the Boston Red Sox in the second game of a series yes- terday. The Tigers drove Lisenbee from the mound in the first in- ning with three doubles and a single, which made four runs with one out. Morris, who succeeded Lisen~ bee, was found for only one run, but McLaughlin ,who pitched the eighth inning, allowed three hits and two runs, Herring, Tiger pitcher, had tbe Sox well in hand mest of the way.
