The onc big feature of the game tial stauds out is that King Street Tuxis won to the tune of 5 to 3 from Ukrain- ian Nationals making a third and deciding game necessary this ev- ing. exis were just a little bit bet- ter than their opponents last night having an edge in offensive play, getting to Rogers for nine hits, while Powell gave a fine dis- play, whiffing five and allowing only five hits, all of which were wel] scattered with the exception of the final inning. The Tuxis infield played great ball with Garrard at second being a stand- out, his pickup of Patterson's hard grounder in the seventh be- ing a particularly fine bit of fielding. Chappell was also to the fore with five chances ac cepted without an error. Just to show how tight the pitching was, the hurlers each issued one base on balls, while there was only one extra base hit, that be- ing a home run by Peterson with one on in the sixth. Each of the outfields had six putouts, most of them being high flies far back. Nationals Scored First Nationals went in to bat first and edged out a two-run lead with the aid of a walk, an error and a single, Rogers was thrown out by Powell while Shelenkoff drew a pass. Siwakoski struck out, P. Hercia lifted a fly to Peterson who dropped it and Shelemkoff scored. Patterson singled through second and Her- cia scored. Graboski popped out to short. Tuxis sent four men to the plate in their half but could not get Garrard off first. ¥, Rogers singled to open thc second but he did not get heyond second; and the hest Tuxis could do was to have three batters [iy out. Tuxis then started in to play unbeatable ball and in the nex: four innings only twelve batters went to the plate. Tuxis themw- selves got on to the score sheet in the third, Hood leading off with a single to left and ad- vancing on a passed ball. Powell drew a walk. Chamberlain flied out to right and the runners ad- vanced after the catch, Chap- pell forced Powell at second aud Hood scored on the play.

Garrard's pickup of Patterson's hard drive saved the situation in the seventh as Y Rogers later same through wi'h a single which mrght have knot- ted the score.

The event which was the best three out of five sets resulted of Doubles were weather « Armstrong and Dr, feating Ross Strike and Stewart Al ger by scores of 3-6, 6-3, 8-6, 6-4, with little to choose between the teams although it took the cham- pions some time to warm up to their game but "after dropping the first set they came into their own game at the net. However Strik. and Alger gave them a ral battle all through the match and might with a little luck have forced the match to five sets as in the third set they were ahead and but for several of the toughest kind of breaks might have won. The match was featured by the all round good play ot both pairs, both of whom made innuin- erable niiraculous recoveries of seemingly impossible shots Play Was Very Even In the first set Armstrong and McMullen took the first two wamies before their opponents found them- selves and came up to even terms. From then on the torc:ful playing of Strike at the net had its cffect and three more gantes fell to them before McMullen won his own ser- vice assisted by nice placement shots by his partner. However fast shots that were just too hot to han- dle gave Strike and Alger the set. Alger and Strike took the first two games of the second set, but again the opposing side ame up on even terms before Alger and Strike edged out the fifth game. Tlie (ide of battle changed right there, how- ever.as Armstrong and McMullen commenced to i bing game to the base line which they followed up to the net for vol little with and found it extremely baseline. Armstrong and McMullen coasted through the remaining three games to win, A Hard Fought Set The third set was perhaps the most keenly contested of the after- noon with the brand of tennis be- ing above the average. McMullen and Armstrong took the first game hut their opponents then took four games in a row and the set looked to be in the baz, A number of | breaks in addition to sound steady playing enabled Armstrong and Mc- Mullen to even the match at four games all.- Then the battle began with the 'teams alternating in the lead until the score was six-all. Armstrong and McMullen then broke throuzh Alger's service and took the game to edge out in front again. With McMullen serving in score was forty-love tor the ser- vers, but they 10st the advantage and the game went to deuce and then advantage to the strikers, Two hard smashes at the net by Arm- strong brought back a ray of hope, and a nice placement gave them the game and set. Armstrong and McMullen pulled out the first two games of the final set, but lost their advantage, drop- ping the next four games before the winners broke through Alger's scr- vice with a nice volleying attack that had their opponents backed on their bascline. The eighth game with McMullen serving was a heart breaker for Alger and Strike as Strike had game point and hit into the net from close up to give Arm- strong and McMullen another chance which they scized taking the next game to put them out in front. Strike cracked a little in this game serving three doubles. The last game of the set was decisive with Armstrong serving nicely to take a love game with McMullen smashing over a placement for the final point. Soccer Throw-ins BY "SCOTTIE" (Bv "Scottie") By defeating Toronto Irish 3-1 last Saturday, the Oshawa City occer team overcame what was reckoned the stiffest hurdle 1u the major league and collected two valuable points.

The past season had been the most successful in the history of the league, he asserted, with the best of good fellowship among the players. Short speeches were also given by a number of the members of the executive including Art, Gates and H. R. Brown, of Oshawa.

Dear Sir:-- On behalf of the Oshawa City Soccer Club, permit me to lay be- fore you the gist of the baseball diamond affair at Alexandra Park, also the above club's find- ing. At a representative iueeting on Monday evening, Maroons and Dukes agreed to co-operate In every way to make Alexandra Park the loca] sports mecca. In telephone conversation with the Dukes' Manager yesterday he was of the opinion that the dia- mond counld be left till spring (likewise opinion of experienced men), thus insuring the *'Mai- oons" of any ground advantageo. The 0.B.A. representative at Wednesday night's meeting im- plied there was a possibility of two playoff games if a diamond was laid out at Alexandr lus ensuring a turn wisn Bd i ta would otherwise go else- The Maroons' committee met last night and : Their finding i in detail. "We intend co-oper. fullest extent with the Dukes me next season. Their manager is content to let the diamond go tid spring, thus the Maroons are not in any way hampered, physicaliy or mentally. . With the Dukes willing to help us we sugges: that the diamond be left till next spring." To the O.B.A, representative they ask, "What guarantee has he got two games will come to Alexandra Park?" If the Stadium was good en- ough al] season for exhibition and other games, why come in at this stage of the game and raise a hornet's nest? Supposing the shoe the other foot, what would he adopt? The money the restaurants would lose on two outside ball teams not coming here, is noth- ing compared to the banquet and other merchandise that would he dished if the Maroons lost the league championship, On the one hand we have a representa- tive suggesting with no guaran- tee, creating dissention among a body of men who have stuck to Alexandra Park when all others tossed it ovsr and are now with- in a few points of possibly the only championship for Oshawa this year, The banquet wil} be held in Oshawa naturally. Extra gifts are contemplated and to' be bought locally, so figure it out. We maintain, as the Dukes are satisfied, the diamond be left over until spring, Any endea- vor to lay the diamond before the soccer season is finished, should be fought against by all faire minded people. Yours truly, was on attitude ' "Throw-in Scottie."
