Then Bienkowsk! hounced one off Crawfords leg and it was a single. Talllon grounded but Ly- zun, who covered third, forgot to have his foot on the base and the attempted force-out of Stark miss- ed, With the bases loaded, Boyko punched .one over second and then ds followed with a single to left-field and Brabins quick throw to third was unattended and it went into the crowd to let Boyko score the fourth run, Taylor flied out and Kovacks walked but Tutak filed out to end the inning. Pete's got thelr fifth run in the . eighth when Edmonds singled with one out and was sacrificed to sec ond by Taylor's bunt. Kovacks then came through with a two-bag- 'ger, to score Edmonds with the last run of the game, 5% 7 'rdtak In Great Form Young Tutak pitched superb ball for Pete's Place and was definitely [#a big factor in upsetting the Aces. "" He was at his best in the tight spots --most of which he created him- self by issuing walks. He walked seven batters and struck out six, An the right spots. In the first inning, Aces had their first big chance and threw it away with some bad base-running. Ea- fore the game was over, they had thrown away thelr championship or at least this game, by a series of base-running "boners" which were ttle short of stupid, In the first inning, Lyzun was safe on a fumbled catch by Talllon and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Porayko. Perched there 'with only one out he moved part- way off the base and watched Tay- lor catch Czerewaty's long drive to right-field and so had to go back to the bag and was unable to score efter the catch, as he should have and then got himself tagged fying to steal second base, after ich Porayko was safe on an er- yor and Czerewaty walked. Ane other error as Blenkowski forgot to {touch first base, let Hanna be safe 'but Wilson struck out to end the ! big hitters, such as Hanna, Wilson and others, to get hits when . Porayko and Sobansk! played very well in the Aces' outfield and Craw- ford pitched seven-hit balls with four walks, Defensively, Aces fvere good enough but they fell down badly in the matter of get- ting runs for themselves.

They will have to hurry though, because this series is a two-out-of-three affair and a one-win lead means an awful lot to the team that has it. The game itself of course was not much of anything as the Harmony boys had it all their own way, The only times when the North Oshawa team really threatened was in the first, third and seventh innings when they got the bases loaded twice and a mon on third the last time, In the third inning Maeson had his worst time at the plate and he allowed three walks to load the bases but then he made the next man the last out of the in- "Ee samony som sare 0] ony boys s out with a rush and got three runs in the first frame, one in the second, and then three in the third, Two runs in the fourth and another in the sixth completed the scoring. Loreno Leads Team Thus it was a case of the Harm- ony power at bat going to the fore along with a great plece of pitch ing to make it an all-out game, Loreno was again the star for the "Millionaires" with a hit every time but once in his five times at bat. Scott also had a hit every time but once in his four times at bat, Scorgie had a "two-for-three" average for the best hitting at the plate for the North Oshawa club, Maeson, the Harmony hurler, gave up so few hits that the only way that the Northerners got a chance to get anywhere on the base paths n and gave them a helping hand with a free trip to first base, All in all Maeson gave up but four of these 'bases on balls and so he really didn't help the Northerners too much, NORTH OSHAWA: --Brown, 3b; Ashby, c; Scorgle, 2b; Woods, Ib; Welsh, 1f; Hucheon, cf; Martin, p; and Lyon, rf, HARMONY MILLIONAIRES: -- L.

By Jack Sullivan Canadian Press Staff Writer London, Aug, 9--(OP)---Britain's dog-racing is, as some sports writer is almost sure to quip, "going to the dogs." Taken in terms of box-office and betting appeal, greyhound racing has advanced far beyond the puppy stage and the two-meetings-a-week at the B80-odd tracks around the country keep turnstiles clicking at a dizzy pace surpassed only by the almost fantastic tote figures, With this upsurge in the sport, there have been confirmed and un- confirmed rumors of dog-doping; owners have doubled and trebled sentry duty over their dogs and stadium managers have strengthe ened their track police, Strong. arm methods against would-be hooligans seem to the order of the day. Crowd excitement reached a high pitch at Harringay and White City, two London tracks, during one week, At Harringay incensed bettors started fires, smashed windows and were bent on wrecking the place until they were cooled off by haste ily-summoned firemen and police. The flareup was a demonstration of thelr displeasure at the judge's de cision on a race. The. same "let's-tear-the-place- apart" attitude was adopted by the crowd at White City two days later, This "mob rule" drew some fire front sports writers and outspoken Peter Wilson, Sunday Pictorial cole umnist, didn't pull any punches in his criticlsm, He sald "a crime. wave has hit the dog tracks" and compared the demonstrations to "mass uprisings" as seen "in Sing Sing and Alcatraz." He went on: "The scum of humanity and the 00D FOR ONE 13th TO 20th dregs of soclety, who, unfortunately, seem more attracted by this sport than by any other, have their own reasons for these acts of criminal gangsterism, The sinister thing about the Harringay riot was the way that a hard core of some 20 men. ignored the giddy~headed burning and wrecking and went straight for the tote, where there were thousands of pounds in notes to be garnered. "I do not say that these filthy rates inspired te riot, But they were mighty quick to turn it to their own dirty advantage . , .

Cole singled in the first inning with two out and stole 2nd before McArthur flied out, In the second stanza, with two out, Victors thelr two runs when Burnett trip to centre and Swindell tripled to the very same spot, scoring Bure nett, Gilbert was safe on an error by Bouch and Swindell came home on the play. Saegar struck out to end the inning. After that, Victors did little, Mc~ Arthur was safe on an error by Powers in the 3rd with two men out, In the 4th ining, with two out again, Swindell was safe on an error by Siblock and Gilbert walk- ed but Saegar flied out to centre, In the 7th, Swindell was safe on an error by Wallace but was later nipped off 2nd base, Beaton's Dairy boys opened with a run in the first when Turnbull singled and stole 2nd and scored on an error by Saegar with Siblock batting, In the 4th inning, Souch hit a hard one to centre and it got away from Swindell and Souch kept on running to score. Wallace singled but was forced by Powers to end that inning. With the score tied at 2-2 in the 6th inning, Beaton's Dairy won the game with a nifty 3-run rally. Buchanan was hit by a pitched ball but Gilbert rallied to strike out Turnbull and Sibiock, Then with two out, SBouch came through with a two-bagger to centre and went to 3rd as the ball was juggled, He scored on a passed ball, then Wal- lace singled to centre and Powers followed with a lusty double to the same spot, to complete the 3-run splurge.
