3 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE - WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25, 1947 PORT >, INAPSHOTS consi 2 Peterboro lacrcssers nosed out Oshawa here last pight 9-8 with a thrilling rally in the last half of the game, Oshawa took a 3-0 lead, held it at 5-2 at half-time bug, the Petes rallied in the 3rd to tie it up while "one of each team was serving a major penalty for fighting and in tHe final frame, the classy Petes had fust enough steam left to eke out a win. It was a peppery game and a real crowd-pleaser. Willie Vipond was miss- ing from the local line-up. Willie threw the ball at the official up in Scarboro about two weeks ago and then added some abusive language and yesterday word arrived from the O.L.A. that he had been placed under: suspension for the next two games. With the locals being definitely weak- «er in their defensive play than on the attack, they can ill afford to have any forced absentees. They go back to Peterboro on Friday night, when they hope to turn the tables on the smart Liftlock City feam. Ira Dun- das, who was playing lacrosse in O.L.A. ranks about 30 years ago, flashed his experience and ability to help Petes win last night, with two valuable goals in the final frame. Gord. Cook was Oshawa's most aggressive play- er, and several of the locals could take an example from his "try." + * * Oshawa GM-Colts swing Into action tonight in the Beaches fixt against Peoples tonight and then on appear here at home, with the Tip Tops as the visitors. The locals gave Tip Tops a mighty argument in their last game here until the Tailors broke up the 4-4 a adlock with a 4-run splurge in the 7th inning. This game on Friday night should be a bang-up softball treat and local fans who are warming up to their summer sport, as the weather warms up too, will no doubt be on hand Friday night ih large numbers, ; * LJ LJ There are some interesting games on tap tonight, with the Inter: "A" game at Alexandra Park, between Legion and White Eagles, looming as the evening's "special". Over in Whitby, UA.W.A. will be trying for "another win. In the Junior ranks, there's a game up at Westmount tonight with Fittings as the visitors while Westmount Hel-Cats visit Reed's Florists at Alexandra Park. + * * - There's a Lakeshore Junior Baseball League game tonight too here in Oshawa, that will attract a fair share of the fans. Bowman- ville Royals come right back against the Oshawa Hunt Club here tonight and it should be a real sizzler. Bowmanville nosed out the Hunters 2-1 down there on Monday night, with Artie Clemence of Bowmanville having 15 strikeouts. At that, Oshawa was leading 1-0 until the closing stages of the game, when three bad infield errors, with two men out at the time, gave Bowmanville their two runs. The Hunters are still smarting over that business and they should be mad enough now to step out tonight and get some revenge against Bow- manville, * + 5 There were two classy Juvenile games last night, with Cay Lumber finally losing one to Victors, an 8-7 affair decided on three-straight hits in the last half of the final inning. Down at Sunnyside Park, the Com- bines walloped Beaton's Dairy and the "wise boys" are saying now that Sebe Claus will coach his Combines right through to the local OM.B.A, Juvenile championship this year. Mrozeck allowed only 4 hits as he won hiss game from Beaton's 16-4. There are two mare games tomorrow night, one at each park. LJ LJ + Harold, Ajax Legion hurler, entered the hall-of-fame last night as he blanked Oshawa Legion 13-0 and chalked up a ne-hitter while earning his shufout. The Ajax boys mow lead the County Legion League and their clear-cut win over the Oshawa squad last night, marks this Ajax softball squad as the team to beat. * A + Legion visits North Oshawa in the Inter. "AA" loop tonight and while they should be able to win in North Oshawa, they'll have to be on their toes. In the schedule game last night, Robson Leather tanmed Skinner's, breaking up a 7-7 tie in the 7th inning with a 5-run rally when the Skinner pitcher lost all semblance of control and shortly after lost interest in the game and folded completely. iF L J * & SPORT SHORTS:--Two members of Baseball's Hall of Fame, Ty "Cobb and Babe Ruth, played a charity golf match at Newton, Mass, 6 | years ago today and Cobb won 3-and-2, before a gallery of 2,000 specta- / tors .. . .

Ira Dundas, cagey veteran of some 40-odd winters, was the gent who paid off tor the Petes, with a couple of timely goals in the third period, to knot the count twice after Oshawa had forged ahead as many times. Winner With 5 Minutes Left With five minutes to go, Lou Vitarelli burst up the centre and beat Chambers' from close quar- ters, with what proved the win- niez goal and despite several close chances, the Petes managed to hold possession for most of the remaining time, to fashion out a well-earned win. The game was exceptionally fast and rugged too but the only flare-up came during Peterboro's big rally in the third period when Magee and Gord Cook tangled in a wild fist-swinging session, af- ter Magee had grabbed Cook around the shoulder and swung him off balance, in order to break in the clear. Cook chased Magee down the floor, crashed him into the boards and then they went into it. They both drew major penal- ties but it hurt Oshawa's chances for these two came with Bastien already in the penalty box and Petes scored once before he got back and twice more soon after he returned, to wipe out Osha- wa's lead and leave the score at 6-6 at the end of the third per- fod. Oshawa Had Early Lead The homesters tickled their large crowd with a brilliant start, rapping in three goals within less /than three minutes, after the five-minute mark of the first pe- riod. Gord Cook, O'Brien and Murphy were the scorers but in the second stanza; Petes manag. ed to hold Oshawa even, getting two for two, It was after Bastien had scor- ed in the 3rd to make it 6-2 for Oshawa, that the Petes suddenly came to life and by virtue of some smart - ball-handling and deadly shooting, pulled up on even terms, : a They were slightly better in the final frame, with Oshawa spoiling' many good. chances by wild passes and thrown-away pas- ses. ; Lou Vitarelli and Ira Dundas were the heroes for the Petes with Ned Vitarelli, Jerry Creigh- ton, brother Emmett and Break- speare their other stars, along with goalie Rodgers. Chambers shone again in the nets for Oshawa but he had little protection on many occasions. Luther Vipond was Oshawa's on- ly solid rearguard with Robson, Sanders, Jantzen, Gord Cook and Bastien the pick of the attack- ers. . PETERBORO: Goal, W. Rogers; defense, J.

HUNTERS TOSS GAME AWAY ON THREE ERRORS Oshawa Hunt Club went down to Bowmanville on Monday night to keep their July 2nd scheduled game with Royals, in a switch with B'Nai B'Rith, who were away playing a previously arranged exhibition game. B'Nai B'Rith will play in Bowman- ville on July 2nd. Hunters and Bowmanville go right back at it again tonight here at Alexandra Park. . The Hunters dropped a sensa- tional 2-1 decision to the Bowman- ville boys, throwing away a thrilling 1-0 victory in the 5th inning, with three ghastly errors, after there were two men out in the 5th inning. Up until then, young Brown held the Royals in check. With two out in the 5th, Souch dropped a pop fly in the sun. Cowle then hit a fly to left and shortstop Thompson went back into the fielder's terri- tory and muffed the catch. Clem- ence hit the next ball pitched to Thompson, who threw wildly to 1st base and both Bowmanville runners scored, making it 2-1, Artie Clemence was in sensational form for Bowmanville and actually deserved a win for he allowed only three hits and scattered a total of 15 strikeouts along the 7-inning route. At that, Brown only gave Bowmanville two hits, singles by Hooper and Sturroch in the 1st and 2nd innings respectively. Hunt Club got their run in the first frame when Murphy opened with a single, moved to 2nd on an error throw and stole third while Thompson was striking out. Bax- ter singled to score Murphy.

After taking the first two matches, Oshawa Tennis Club dropped the last pair to gain a tie with Toron- to's Boulevard Club at the O.T.C. courts Monday night. The local club will close out its Toronto Ten- nis League schedule with a tourna- ment against Kew Gardens next week. In the first doubles, Cec. Dodwell and Harold Barker, of O.T.C., click- ed in a straight set victory over H. Robey and Carl Olsen, of Boule- vard, 6-1, 10-8. The second set developed into a dog-eat-dog strug- gle with the tempo of play slowing considerably as the warm weather took its toll. Ken Andison and Jack Langmaid, of QTC, fought their way to a three-set triumph over Harold Storey and R. McAllister, of Boule- vard, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3. Andison was particularly brilliant in this match as he roamed the court putting Laway shot after shot in crisp over- head smashes. Third doubles saw R. Calhoun and PF. Black, of Boulevard, rout Doug Burden and Russ Learmonth, of O.T.C,, 6-1, 6-2. Prior to this match, Burden and Learmonth had top- pled all opposition with the excep- tion of a team from the Toronto Tennis Club. : D. Dineen gnd B.
