ACHP NS" MF EEL AN PAGE TEN THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Hour-and-a-Half Fight for This One| Keith Goodman seems a little overloaded with all that fish. He landed the 30-pound Muskie last Saturday at Sturgeon Point in Ssturgeon Lake. Keith lives at 240 Athol St. E., and says that although this is a big one, he made a larger catch two years back, a 40': pound monster. The eatch is four feet 1 inch long and has a girth in the neighbourhood of 23% inches. --Times-Gazette Staff Photo. Oshawa Merchants will play Peterboro Marines in the 3rd game of their 4-out-of-7 Viaduct Major Baseball League championship finals, here at the Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium TONIGHT at 8:30 o'clock. THAT'S RIGHT! Tonight's game between the Merchants and Peterboro Marines is being played her in Oshawa at the Stadium, under the new floodlights. The wiring work was completed late last night, thanks to some generous overtime work by public-spirited and sports-minded elec- tricians and the lights were "tried". There are a few bulbs that will have to' be replaced and some minor adjustments in "aiming" the lights or adjusting the focus of certain lamps, is still necessary, of course, and work on this will go ahead today and the rest of the wee but in the mean- time, the third game of the Viaduct League playoffs will be played here tonight. No doubt tonight's crowd will be the biggest the Merchants have had for league action this season and with each team having won one game and the series tied, a lot hinges on the result of tonight's tilt. + * + The Viaduct Major League officials suddenly remembered yester- day that league playoff rules, drawn up at the first of the season, called for some games to be played at Millen Stadium, even if "out- side" teams were engaged in semi-final or final games. The result is that they have notified both Peterboro and Oshawa Merchants that should the series go beyond the 4th game (and it must go at least five games now) then the 5th, 6th and 7th games have been ordered for Millen Stadium. This means that the Merchants and Marines play here tonight under the lights and that's the last home game of this series for Oshawa fans. Oshawa Pedlars, who chalked up a sen- sational 10-0 victory over the Peterboro Senior "B" 0.A.S.A. entry, in the first game of their series, down in the Liftlock City last night, will play the second and return game with the Peterboro East City softball squad, here at Oshawa on Friday night at the Stadium, under the lights, at 8:15 o'clock. The "official opening of the Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium's "floogdlights" will be held in the near future, as soon as ull adjustments have been made and the job is declared "finished" by the electrical contractor. +* +* + Things are marching right along in local playoff circles and with the Merchants playing Marines 'here tonight under the lights and Pedlars playing Peterboro's softball squad here on Friday night, Oshawa now is in the position where both daylight and night playoff games can be staged on the same date. In the Inter. "AA" playoffs, the Skinners and United Taxi teams renew their feud tonight at Alexandra Park with the 4th game of the series and a win for the "Cabbies" ties up the round again. Orioles walloped Fabric Town Juveniles last night 20-2 and that should put the Orioles in top shape to open their O.AS.A. playoff series with Peterboro, down in the Liftlock City tomorrow night at 8:15 o'clock. +* Ld + Over in Whitby last night, the most enthusiastic crowd of the season witnessed Whitby Stokers edge out Cobourg Orfans in the 4th and most sensational game of their great Inter. "B" 0.A.S.A. playoff series. Cobourg broke a 1-1 tie-in the 6th inning and Jack Spencer smashed a terrific homer right out of the Town Park, with ene man on base at the time, in the 8th inning, to give Whitby their 3-2 lead and Wally Samanski, who has pitched all four games of this hectic series with Cobourg, "bore down" to blank the Orfans for the last two frames and cop the round. Parham visits Whitby tomorrow evening at 5:30 o'clock for the first game of their series and the second game will be played down in Parham on Saturday night, under lights. + + + BRIGHT -BITS--Oshawa Connaught Park softballers move to Pick- ering tonight for the first game of their O.A.S.A.

ENT Even though it was the third wrestling show in eight days at the Oshawa Arena, Promoter "Pat" Milosh had another big crowd on hand last night as he presented his final mat card of the 1950 wrest- ling season--as far as Oshawa is concerned. Milosh has announced that he Will take his popular performers in- to Bowmanville's capacious arena, for regular appearances, until "snow flies" and they put ice in the Bow- manville Arena. Moore Gets Heave-Hot The preliminary bout went almost twenty minutes with Moore and Bockwinkle staging a torrid session on the mat. Warren Bockwinkle, quite a favorite with the local fans, was having a tough time of it due to Moore's foul blows and ther ille- gal tactics but finally it became too much for even the referee to stand and he disqualified Moore, to end that one. In the semi-final bout, Bowman- ville's Billy Stack tangled with Seelie Samara and this was a bout between two favorites. Both grap- plers had a substantial following in the seats and were urged on by their rooters, with great vim and vigor. Samara, who has arms like the legs on a prize beef but actually, appears to suffer great pain and discomfort when a rival gets one of those "legs of mutton" pinned be- hind his back, rouna that Billy Stack was just a little too quick for him. He worked on Stack's legs with telling effect but as the bout went along, it became obvious that Sam- ara had to try something different, if he was to win. He did! He elected to try flying tackles and catapult shots off the ropes. Just when it looked as if he would cannon himself right through Stack's middle, the Bowmanville hero ducked and Samara went hurt- ling out of the ring. He jarred him- self and was unable to get back in the ring before the count of 10. Villains Win Final The villains won the last bout of the Oshawa wrestling season. The Masked Marvel and Wee Willie Davis practically smothered Villmer and Flanagan in the open- ing go. Villmer was: almost out but suddenly he rallied, grabbed him- self a hunk of Wee Willie and worked on it and then rapidly ex- 'changed places with Pat Flanagan and in jig-time, Davis was downed for the first fall. . Flanagan Stands Alone The villains came back strong for the second fall but at that it look- ed as if The Masked Marvel and VILLIANS TRIUMPH IN MAIN BOUT OF SEASON'S LAST MAT SHOW Wee Willie were going to be taken in two-straight but Ray Villmer's enthusiasm got him in trouble, he went out of the ring and hurt him arm and couldn't get back. For the final, Flanagan had to take on the pair by himself. Vill- mer did get back late, and tried to help out, but he couldn't keep it up and neither could Flanagan. Wee willie smashed Flanagan with body slams and then the Masked Marvel moved in and gave "Pat" a few back-breakers". They took rapid turns with this vicious treatment and finally the popular Flanagan succumbed--and the bout and sea- son was finished. PEDLARS BLANK PETERBORO FIRST TILT Oshawa Softball Wins 1st of S Squad r. "B" Series Over Liftlock City Team "Hootch" Meulemeester Fans 15 Batters In Scoring 10-0 Shutout Over Homesters--Ped- lars Make Their Hits 'Count for Runs Oshawa Pedlars chalked up a one-sided 10-0 triumph over Peter- boro East City when they clashed last night under the floodlights at the Peterboro Bowl, in 'the first game of the Sastern Ontario. O.A. S.A. Senior "B" series. "Hootch" Meulemeester went to the mound for the Oshawa Pedlars squad and literally "mowed down" the Liftlock City opposition as he allowed only two singles and struck out fifteen batters. Jaquith in the fifth inning opened with a single and was later forced at 2nd base and Cornwall, with one out in the 8th, beat out a hit, for Peterboro's only other safety. ) From a standpoint of competi- tion, it was a sparkling display of softball, the East City team turned in an errorless display while Osh- awa Pedlars had, only one error, a bobble by the left-fielder in the Tth, Pedlars opened the scoring in the second inning when Wes Keeler op- ened with a double and Gilbert sin- gled with one out. Weatherup also got a safety, but the next two bat- ters were retired. A homer by Jack Logeman gave Pedlars another run in the third and Nelson's triple developed into a run in the fourth when he scored on a passed ball. Normie Magee walked to open the 5th and he scored on a couple of passed balls and Gilbert's long fly to deep right. With the score only 5-0, Oshawa broke up the game in the 7th when Keeler drew a walk and Romaniski doubled. Gilbert singled and so did Weatherup and Meulemeester in succession and when the dust clear- ed, Pedlars had added three more runs. They got two runs in the 8th with Magee. Stark and Gilbert sup- plying the punch, plus walks to Weatherup and Meulemeester as Eakins hit a wild streak. Eakins fanned eight batters in the game but he gave up sixteen hits to the Oshawa squad. : RHE PEDLARS--..021 110 320--10 16 1 EAST CITY--000 000 000-- 0 2 0 OSHAWA PEDLARS--Nelson, rf; Logeman, If; Marker, c; Magee, 2b; Keeler, ss; Romaniski, cf; Gilbert, 3b and ss; Weatherup, lb; Meule- meester, p; Stark, 3b.

LADS TIE PETERBORO IN 0.B.A. GAME In the first game of their O.B.A. Juvenile series, Peterborough &nd Oshawa played to a 1-1 tie in eight complete innings here at Civic Memorial Stadium last night. UAW.A, won the right to rep- resent Oshawa in this playoff and they sent their ace right-hander Ted Stone to the mound. Ted had a good night, allowing but two hits for the one run the enemy collected. Murdock, the Pete's pitcher, and one of the nine men who made it to the game after the team's trans- portation problem was muddled by car breakdowns, allowed the Osh- awans only three hits. Stone finished the eight frames with 10 swinging outs while Mur- dock had but five of these. type outs, Peterborough sent over the first runs of the game after both teams had marched through three score- less innings of ball. In the top of the fourth, Young groundea out pitcher to first, and Bigford walked. A wild pitch sent him into second standing up from which point he pulled up at the plate after Sulli- van drove a ball through the third- base post for one-base error. Sulli- van tried to move to far away from first and was caught off-base by Stone for the second out. He fanned the next batter and the rally was over with the Petes ahead 1-0. When the Pete's threatened again in the top of the sixth, the Union felt it was about time they did (N); only '| something about the game, and in their half of the inning, Barta flied deeply to right, Jeffs drilled a single to the same spot and Walker also got a safety into that field. That last blow advanced Jeffs to third, from which point he mov- ed off-base on a long lead and then broke for the plate to beat the pitch and bring in the tying run. Stone flied out to second and Coo- per fanned to end what looked like it could have been the winning ral- Neither team did a thing after that as both pitchers bore down and seemed to have the batter's number. Stone walked a pair in the top of the eighth to get into. a little spot, but got out of it by fanning the third out to end that chance. Oshawa went down in order to end the game. PETERBO!

Christie was the man of the hour, potting the winning tally with just over a minute left in the ten-min- ute overtime session. The win' gives Brooklin a two- game lead in their four out of seven playoff series with Toronto Mait- lands. Brooklin won the first game of the series by a close 10-9 score last Friday night in Brooklin Arena. Hard and close checking was the order of the night with solid bumps being handed out by both crews. The tight checks hampered Mait- land's fancy passing attack as the Brooklin forward wall stepped in to break up the passing before it got really clicking. Bradley was superb in the Brook- lin nets as he picked off shot after shot which were ticketed for goals. Shugg, minding the twine at the opposite end of the box, also turned in a steady game to keep the score down. Hit The Scoresheet Toronto Maitland hit the score sheet first as McLure took a pass from McCrone and deposited it be- hind Bradley in the first minute of the game, Luther Vipond led a Brooklin attack right back however and whirled through the Toronto defense to notch Brooklin's first tally less than a minute later. Then hols teams setiled down io checking and it was near the end of the first quarter before Brooklin took the lead for the first time. Sutherland took a pass from D. Mitchell at the goal mouth and flipped it past Shugg. The Brooklin lead was short-lived as LeBlond drove home a long-shot on a solo effort with only seconds left in the quarter. Brooklin in Front Once again Brooklin gained a slim one-goal lead in the second period as Batten slapped in a re- bound halfway through the period. In the third. Toronto found new life and their passes. started to click. They scored three goals in the space of three minutes before |° Brooklin was able to break up their attack. Maitland's increased their lead to three goals early in the fourth stanza but this was answered im- mediately by Christie who . picked up the ball in his own end and whirled his way through the Toron- to team for a score. Then Suther- land capitalized on a good oppor- tunity, narrowing the margin and, with only seconds to play in the BROOKLIN LACROSSE (Continued on Page 11) TODAY'S GAMES Viaduct Major Baseball League Peterboro Marines vs. Oshawa Merchants, at Oshawa Kinsmen Stadium 8.30 p.m. (3rd game of 4- out-of-7 championship league fi- nals.)

Using a light casting rod and a 10-1b test line with flatfish at bail Keith. was after pickerel and hau no ideas about the big ones till a 30-pounder tied on and fought for an hour-and-a-half before finally yielding. As Goodman was bringing the monster near shore, Keith Sandy of Radio Station CKEY, rushed to the scene and was just in time to hold the line while Goodman waded into the water and brought the catch to gaff. Out came the measuring tape and scales and it was found the Muskie weighed 30 pounds even, was 49 inches long and had a girth over 22 inches. Landing this muskie was no chore to Goodman, who is an old hand at the game, having landed an even larger one two years ago. At that time, he pulled in a 40% pound muskie. We wonder how one guy manages to entice all these big ones his way.
