The title will be settled a sudden-death game at Alex- andra Park on Friday night. dt was a very fast game in which both. teams played extremely good defensive ball and so had almost three men up and three men down in-every inning, The pitching was also one of the better features of the game as both boys got few strikeouts but they also didn't give up 'too many hits, "Bunny" Mae- son had an edge in the strikeout department, with a total of three, while his ing pitcher, Baxter collected a total of two Mdeson allowed nine hits' while Baxter let the opposi- tion away with but five for a much "better night. «2 Wete's Beore First Pete's Place started in early as wus) and they rolled in two runs in the first inning when with two out Blenkiwski singled and Fred Tallon left no doubt in anybody's mind as to whether he could hit or not when he pounded out a hom- or and sent two runs over the plate. Jwople popped out to the catcher and that ended the first half of the Sirst frame, -~Penfound singled for the Har mony team in their half of the first but it did not good as there were. two out and the next man up grounded 'out to the first baseman 'and 80 retired the side, - + Harmony finally got one of those runs back in the last of the third when Saunders led off with a deep Hin : i £ Cec. Dodwell and 'Sam'Barker Win Doubles Crown Cec. Dodwell and Sam Barker were crowned the Men's Doubles Champions at the Oshawa Tennis Club for this year when they de- feated their rivals Len Corn and Russ Learmonth in a most decisive and impressive manner. The win- ners took the match in three straight gets by scores of 6-3, 6-2, and 6-4, Usually .In Command Dodwel] and Barker were in the driver's seat most of the time and only in some long duece games were they ever in doubt of obtaining their point. The winners played a steadier game than their rivals and that plus the fact that they kept their opponents on the move made it possible for them to claim points and the set. Barker played a steady game at the net and left Dodwell to carry out his role as the hard. driving server. Dodwell's overhead smashes, were very effective and his service at times was daultiess, Both partners played a greatly im- proved game at the net and also came up with some very nice base line play. Dodwell and Barker also showed how a volleying game can be turn- ed into a winning game in the last of the first set. One could only say that they were hot and both played the match of their careers. Corn and Learnmonth tried everything they knew to overcome their opponents but nothing seem- ed to bother Dodwell and Barker, Learmonth played a hard game all the way. His lobbing was perfect but with Dodwell's overhead being 50 effective there was just no chance of the lobs being successful. Lear- month was strong on his receiving of Dodwell's hard services, but again his habit of not coming in to the net with his partner caused quite a bit of trouble, Len Corn played his usual steady game but kept at the baseline where his very deadly net game was not allowed to come to the fore, Dod- well saw this early in the second set and tried to keep the situation that way but discovered that Corn had found a loophole when in the third set they brought the score to a 6-4 Success, At, Last Dodwell and Barker 'have been playing tennis together many years and have been into the finals quite ) | & dew times, but every time. saw them bow out to a harder smash- ing team, This year however the ystory wes rs thas con- tinued ever since the team won the Oshawa and District July lst tour- ney. } Laat d This coming Satypda; 9 Osh- awa Tennis Orub Will 3 taining the St. George's Club of this city in a day of tennis and refreshments, 'The matches will the | commence at 2.00 p.m. Ed- on balls, Tay= ball to the first baseman and that put men on first { with two out, Kovacks 3 " All nationalities, including 3,000 pdians * from 'the' various reserva« ! ons and centre across the Domin- on, enlisted in the Canadian Army. i made availabe this [.» fn Ottawa show that of this num- I 213 were kl 3h wotion or dist Nearing Finals For Club Titles At St. George's The club championship at St. George's Tennig Club is prog! very favorably and in some sections is nearing the finals, Wednesday should see a hot battle when two brothers Wilf and Ted Parish meet in the finals of the men's singles.

This makes it :an even greater mess in the OMB.A, be- cause this was phoned to be a round-robin series in co of 'the play-offs, f ' Had Big 1st Inning "Cokes" "had 'a terrific rally' in| the top of the first ining hai, nes. / ive Tuns, | ted them the total of Johnstone got a4 wilk and then Mercer got to, first the same way, These players advanced to 'second and third and the stage for set for the first of four singles that push- ed in tive runs, = Simpson' got it. and Johnstone got in to the plate and. the first run, Wilson popped out to: the right fielder, but on a' fast return to the Infield no play at the plate was posible." Ken- nedy blasted the second hit and two runs scored. He stole second base and then came home on McGregor's bingle to deep centre field, Brad- ley was the next man to the batter's box and he hit into what should have been a flelder's choice but an error on the play delayed the play and so the runners were safe at sec- ond and third, McClelland flied out to shortstop and Cavas how- ever clipped a single and the fifth run. scored, Johnstone up for his second time went down swinging and that ended a very profitable inning for the Cokes, Beaton's DalYy were threé up and three down in the first frame but they managed to tally a lone run in the last of the second and thus sterted their climb for a tle at the end of the game, Wallace singled, then stole second and then went to third on a pass ball. Powers walked and then he went to second on a nice steal play, which had the Cokes team baffled as Wallace came home on the play at second. Powers was tossed out at third when he tried to take that sack il- legally and then the next two men were made outs for the end of the inning, Cokes got their only other run in the top of the fourth when Ga- vas went to first on a fumble to the third baseman and from that position he stole second. Badgely was put out from pitcher to first and the play pushed Gavas to third base, On Mercer's infield out the pitcher made sure that no run was going to score before he tossed the runner out at first, Simpson then came through with the needed blow and scored the sixth run for the Cokes. Deaton's Stage Rally Beaton's Dalry had their big in- ning in the last of the fourth and fifth when they scored two and three runs respectively to tie up the game, 'In the fourth with one out, Wallace got his second hit of the night and Powers who followed him to the plate sent another of Ga- yas' slants out for a hit and Wal Ince pulled up at second. A double steal was worked and both -men were safe on second and third, Mc- Grath popped up to the right field- ¢r and on the catch Wallace scor- ed. Brabin singled and that push ed over the other run. The dairymen again made a good showing in the last of the fifth when' with two out, Gifford slapped a double into left field. Souch was hit by the pitcher and then both men advanced one base on a nice bit of stolen base work, Wallace brought in two runs when the sec- ond baseman bobbled his blow to that territory, Powers singled to left field and the left fielder made third run scored. McGrath was a victim of the good pitching of his mound opponent when he was Soules out on strikes to retire the side Both teams tried hard to break the deadlock but were not success- ful as they both tightened up a lit tle defensively' and so the game ended in a 6-8 tle and further muddled the already worried hea of a certain Mr, Walker, » Wallace was the big man for the Dairy team as he not only connect- ed with a hit two times out of three, but he drove in two of his team's runs and came across the plate on three other occasions to be in on all but one of his team's runs, Simpson had a . average for the night's work and he was the Coke's reliable hitter.

Klimuk limited Legion to five hits, kept them scattered and but for his own wildness, which re- sulted in a few walks, would likely have won a shutout decision, The heavy-hitting Legion bat- ters who dominated the first two games of the series, were held en- tirely in .check on Tuesday night, as Klimuk not only held them to . Can Tie Series By Win Tonight only 5 safeties but chalked up a to- tal of 10 strikeouts in 7 innings, just to make things a lot easier for bls mates, Game Called In Darkness I Duplates almost lost the game in the darkness but the umpire called it with one man out in the 8th ine ning and the tying run perched on 3rd base, Legion had scored one run in the 8th when Murphy, first batter, walked and scored on a wild pitch, a passed ball apd another wild pitch, Andrews, 2nd batter; also walked, of course due to all this and he was on third base after Jackson grounded out, but the game was called at that stage, * Legion got one run in the 4th when Dionne opened with a single, advanced on Lott's infield out and scored on a passed ball and a wild pitch, "In 'the 5th, with two out, Cook walked, Dionne singled and Lott's safe bingle scored both Cook and Dionne to make it 4-3 at the time. - Duplates opened with two runs when Johny Maga got off to a shaky start, Maga settled away later and pitched good ball towards the fin- ish with a total of six strikeouts and.only 8 hits, In the first frame, Gordon walk= ed, "Red" Spencer singled and Joe Spencer walked, Weatherup forc« | ed Red Spencer but Chant singled to score Joe Spencer. Gordon had scored on the choice play. In the fifth inning, Red Spencer opened it with a single and Joe Spencer walked. Weatherup popped up but Chant singled and Clark walked to fill the bases, A Spencer had feored on Ohant's single. With the "bases loaded, Maga walked Planche, to force in J. Spencer and that made it 4-0 at the time, In the 7th, Duplates got the run needed to win the game, as it turn- out, when Planche ' singled, ad- [vanced on a passed ball and scored on a long single by Klimuk, "Red" Spencer with three hits and Chant with two timely bingles, were the attack leaders for Du- plates, Dionne was the only Leg- fon player to get more than one safety, Duplates--Gordon, rf; A.

IN FIRST TILT In a game that featured every= thing from home runs to strikeouts and a total of 21 walks issued by both pitchers, the Accountants made it 16-12 over the Purchasing Combines up at Alexandra Park on Tuesday night. f This was the first game of the GM. Office League Semi-Finals and therefore gives the Accountants a one game lead over their Com- bine rivals, The Accountants were at no time in trouble of losing their lead and they played heads up ball all the | way. Lander got a home in the first of the third which accounted for four runs, as the bases were loaded. The Accountants. got their first run in the top of the first with a two hits and a couple of. infleld outs, Combines replied with one of their own in the last of that frame.
