MONDAY, MAY 21, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN TORONTO CLUB BOWS AGAIN BEFORE TRANSPORTERS--THIS ONE 11-2 Yonge-Eglinton Motors Grew Find Local Jrs. Power-Packed McTavish Allows One Run, Two Hits and Fans 12 Before Wild Streak Forces In Re- liefer Ted Stone--Has- tings, Hooper and Joz- koski Lead attack On Toronto Hurlers -- Meet Peter Pans Here Wednesday Using identically the same tactics on the same team proved success- ful Saturday afternoon when the Oshawa Transporters trounced To- ronto Yonge-Eglinton Motors by an 11-2 count at Civic Stadium. That tactical set-up was a smart pitcher and some great backing in the form of hitting ... 8 combina- tion that will win far more ball games than it will lose. The pitchers concerned were Bill McTavish and Ted Stone, both right-handers . . . and the batting | came off the sticks of Jake Hast- ings, John Jozkoskl and Frank visi started on fhe 2p 1 d had a shal Ie Joeyls A . inning in which he walked one, allowed a triple of the game. He didn't allow an- other hit and 4 pw had 12 strike- Bill McTavish outs In that seventh however, Bill's eontrol. started to head for the showers . . . when that happen- ed, Coach "Snowball" Wilson de- cided Bill had better follow along. He walked three and allowed his second hit when he left the hill. Ted Stone, a rookie hurler with the club this year, was used in re- lief. He came in with two out and the bases loaded. He walked the first man to face him to force in a run . . . the second of the game for Toronto, but then fanned the next batter to halt the rally. Good Relief Work Ted was in conrol the rest of the route, using a spin-type fast- ball that chalked up five fans in his direction in two and one-third innings, » Bob Verner, top left-hander with the Y-E club was the starter for the losers and although he stood the locals on their ears for the first two innings, his stuff proved no problem after that and he had' nine runs scored against him when Coach "Robbie" Robertson called for relief from the bullpen. Ron Pleasant came in in the eighth and was promptly nailed for two runs before he ended the eighth and Jast batting chance for the locals. Ed Pazder led-off in the top of the first with a walk. The next two batters were strikeout victims as McTavish began to bear down. Lou Stewart, clean-up man did just that with a resounding wrong- field triple into right field to score Pazder. Ken Aker fanned to end the frame. Brian Coggins got to first on a free ticket in the bottom of the first, but was picked off by the catcher as he tried to steal second. John Jozkoski singled sharply to second. O'Connor struckout, but Frank Hooper cashed "Crabby" with a stand-up double into deep centre Jake Hastings flied to left to leave the score tied 1-1. Neither team made a scoring move in the second and the Motors club went down quietly enough in 1 their half of the third. Not so the Osha- wans, With one away, Jozkoski slamme/d a , against the wall in left- centre field. Ted O'Connor fol- lowed this with a booming double to al- ¥ most the same spot, Hooper saw three strikes, while O'Connor worked the pitcher into an error by his dashes off second. Verner tossed to the keystone to nip Tedder . . . but the ball went wild and Oke made third. Hastings clipped a clean single to centre and O'Connor scored to make it 3-1 when Sarnovsky fanned. Both teams went down in order in the fourth and Toronto got a man on base on the fifth, but showed no threat yet. Jozkoski was hit by the pitcher with one out in the last of the fifth. O'Connor fanned, but Hooper hit behind the runner on a hit- and-run to send "Crabby" to third. Hastings hit a peculiar double into left to score Jozkoski, but Hooper was forced to hold third. The ball landed in & mud-hole and refused to bounce. Sarnovsky grounded to leave the score 4-1, Hits Wild Streak Neither club scored in the sixth, In Return Visit of Series although McTavish hit a batsman in that frame, and generally show- ed signs of getting a wild streak. He hit it full blast in the seventh. Syl Steffan walked, Doug Whiffen singled to right and Steffan. tried for third on the play. A great throw by Lou Jankowski nailed him &t the hot corner. McTavish walked another, struck- out Verner, and then walked Pazder to load 'em up. That was all for Bill. Stone came in, had a tough start and walked Gord Clarke to force a run and make the score 4-2. He whiffed Harold Andrews to end the inning and got a fine hand for his effort. "To show they were behind him, the Transporters clubbed home three runs in their half of the seventh. Singles by O'Connor, Sarnovsky and Hastings along with an error and three stolen bases did the trick, Stone had no trouble in the enemy eighth and in the home half, Oshawa scored four runs . , . two off Verner and two fro mre- lief pitcher Pleasant. Three singles (by Hooper, Hast- ings and pinch-hitter Jack Jeffs) plus an error and two walks brought in the tallies. Then to add to the fun, in the top of the ninth, the locals capped their triumph with an "around-the- horn" double-play, Coggins-to- O"Connor-to-Hooper. Stone ended the game with a strikeout. R.H.E.

OSHAWA CITY LOSE TIGHT ONE TO UKRAINIANS The powerful Ukrainian XI had to play all out to beat Oshawa City in a T. and D. Major League game at Greenwood Park, Toronto, on Saturday. and although the final result was Ukrainians, 6; Oshawa, 3; the latter were by no means out-played. : A snap goal, two minutes after the start, by the Ukrainians was quickly counteracted when Posodz- ski sent a beautiful pass down the centre to Dowell who placed the ball well out of the goaltender's reach, to tie up the score. The game settled down to a ser- ies of mid-field exchanges, neither team taking more than they gave until Lychya, the Toronto left- winger, broke away and sent in a terrific drive from thirty-yard range, which had Sutherland beaten all the way. Minutes later, Honeyman had a perfect chance to tie the game up once more but this shod hit the bar, Each Score Penalty Kick First Ukrainians, then Oshawa, were awarded penalty kicks, each of which resulted in a goal. The half came to an end with the To- ronto side in front by the odd goal in line but both sides fairly even on territorial play. The Ukrainians didn't give the Oshawa eleven much time to settle down, on the resumption. They caught the opposing defence nap- ping and added to their score in the first minute of the second half. Oshawa came right back and a clever piece of play between Raw- lins and McRae resulted in Honey- man" putting the Motor City side back in the ball game, but not for long. The Toronto side put on the pressure and tucked the points safely away with two quick goals both coming from the boot of their star inside right. Oshawa struggled valiantly to cut down the margin but found the home side's defence too good for them. OSHAWA CITY: Sutherland, J. Kelly, Gaw, Sweet, Posodzki, Ful- ton, Harrison, T.

UAW Motor City Bowling League Closes Season The UAW Bowling League held its annual banquet in Hotel Gen- osha on Saturday evening with a majority of the 240 members being in attendance. After a very enjoyable dinner, Chairman Alex Donaldson introduc- ed John Brady, President of Local 222, who in turn introduced the head table guests. President Brady congratulated the executive members of the league for the most successful operation of the league during the 1950-51 season, and Secretary Joe Zak came in for special mention for the ex- cellent job he did in handling a league of 40 teams. A special feature of the banquet was the 'presentation of the Matt Kotelko Trophy to the Motor City Spitfires, winners of the 1950 Motor City Annual Bowling Tournament. Mapor Presents Trophy Mayor Starr conducted the pre- sentation of the Matt Kotelko Tro- phy which was suitably accepted by Alex. Donaldson, captain of the Motor City Spitfires. Mayor Starr in his remarks praised the UAW for their interest and support in every field of community sport and recreation. The Mayor congratulated the members of the Motor City Spit- fire team for the amazing team total of 4346 which was turned in by this team. The members of this club were honored at the annual Canadian Bowling Association ban- quet when each member of the club received a ring, This was the record score for the 1949-1950 season in Canada. After the presentation was com- pleted, a very enjoyable program of entertainment was enjoyed when Ernie Bruce and his troupe from Toronto performed for almost two hours, The program was as follows: Ernie Bruce, M.C., a versatile en- tertainer, who skillfully played every kind of an instrument from the bag- pipes to a small plastic whistle; Jack McLean, impersonator; Mar- garet Brenton, comedian; Joan Fairfax, accordionist and vocalist; Dorothy Steadman, tap and acro- batic dncer; and last but not least, Ernie Barnes, Toronto's finest pi- anist, All the artists received a terrific ovation from the members in af- tendance and everyone went home convinced that it was the best ban- quet to-date and looking forward to next season. Treasurer Does His Stuff Treasurer George Dew was the most popular man at the banquet especially when he was handing out small envelopes to each team cap- tain, George was also given a real hand for his efforts during the sea~ son, All team captains are instructed to watch the bowling news for the new grouping of the teams when the fall season rolls around, The members of the executive wish to thank all the-bowlers for their excellent support during the successful season of 1950-51. See you all next season, boys! BARGAIN PRICE San Francisco--The Seals origin- ally signed up Paul Warner for a price of $100. game. A few tickets ar still avail- able, with the "blanket price" cov- ering both the bus fare and ad- mission to the game. Soccer fans interested should contact Jack Jack Dodds at 5-3815. RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT Saturday's official baseball opener for Oshawa, staged by the Transporter Juniors, was a success in that the boys won 11-2, had a great crowd on hand, and the weather was as close to ideal as possible. The one sour note in the pro- ceedings was the length of the tussle a matter of some two hours-and-three-quarters. When the fans took their seventh-inning stretch, they really needed it . . . two hours had passed since McTavish's first pitch. The game was a fine exhibi- tion of baseball from start to finish , . . it had thrills, long clouts, great pitching, sensa- tional fielding, a double-play .. . but it was long. Compared to the first game between these two clubs, the time difference was some 50 minutes. Just what the explanation is, can be gathered from the follow- ing conversation heard outside the press-box during the game. "McTavish can sure throw a fast 'ball, eh? " "He ought to be able to; he takes all day to wind-up!" It's an old story Bill . . , one we heard last year too. Let's look into this matter . . . maybe you wouldn't have had that 'wild streak if the game had been finished, through a bit faster routine on the hill before each pitch. We are raising a small family these days , . . but if things continue at their present rate «+ « the family won't be very small very long. The family are some cute water blisters on our palms, and the reason for our indulging in the manual labor that raised them (wonders never cease eh?) was through an invitation from the Oshawa Tennis Club to look over their set-up on Ritson Road North over the weekend. We never once dreamed that things weren't all settled away when we got the invitation and so we carried our awe-struck jaw at 30,000 fathoms for some distance once we arrived on the scene. Club members everywhere . . . painting, scraping, digging, sift- ing and levelling, all in prepara- Hon for the big opening on the "And it will all be ready by that time (we know) if the current pace of work continues at the courts. Doug "Simon Legree" Langmaid carried his whip at the ready and any laggards were sent to the "dungeons" for a coke to get them back on the job. L'il us couldn't escape either. After a couple of hours with a long-handled shovel, our hands looked like ' foam-rubber cush- ions and our back felt like it had been on a 17th century torture wheel. Oooh! And they tell us this has been going on for weeks! That the members like it! That they have financed the place to the hilt and that their big opening will be on Thursday. What with the fine location, + «+ » great clay courts ... . neat chain-type fencing . . . fine club- house . . . big dressing-rooms + + o three showers for the boys and a like number for the gals + a refreshment bar . , . and an outlook on life that means the sky is the limit, the O.T.C. will definitely make wide tracks this year, Vv CHECKLETS--At the present time, with two games under their Dial 35-1127 MOTOR CITY (RADIO) CAB 9 PRINCE ST.
