World Records May Be Broken CNE Boat Races When the All-Canadian and the International Speedboat Racing Championships roar under way next week at the Canadian National "Exhibition waterfront, it's more than likely that some world speed records may be smashed. Bob Finlayson, secretary of the Canadian Boating Federation which controls all official motorboat racing in Canada, said today "anything can happen and probably will" on the CNE waterfront course. "It's the trickiest course in Can- ada \ and it's more than likely there'll be a few spills as well as some record performances," said Mr. Finlayson. The CNE show will be the windup of what has proved to be the big- gest summer of speedboating in Canada's history. Inboards will race from September 3 -6 and outboards take over on September 7 and 8. First division of the 135 Class which will be raced Labor Day is limited to Canadians and is for the Peerless Trophy. The outboards, racing in seven classes, will fight it out for the B.A, Highpoint Trophy and the Cana- dian one-designs craft will go for the Freeman Trophy. WANTED!

Ontario Senior Baseball Games By The Canadian Press Brantford Red Sox in their third game last night of the Senior Inter- county Baseball League final series with London Majors chose the wrong night to end a 28-home-game winning streak as they picked up the wrong end of a 7-5 ticket. The game puts the Majors back into the best-of-seven series with a single win against two for the Red Sox, Next game will be in Brant- ford tonight. , London's Billy Slack, pitched eight-hit ball, to put ginger in the Major attack. Clare Vanhorne switched his field behind Slack with Miskimmons catching, Bechard on first, Bobby Rose on third and Rus Evon in left field. The Majors banged out 14 hits including two doubles and a pair of singles by Tim Burgess who rated four for four. Bechard hit two doubles in the critical seventh inning when Lon- don scored four runs to put the game in the bag. Alf Gavey, the losing pitcher, faced the heaviest hitting visiting team this season. Wilson and fields each got homers, while Wilson and Lipka batted triples. But Gavey started well as he fanned eight bat- ters for four walks, Slack fanned six, walked two. . Garson 'Greyhounds took a 2-1 lead in their best-of-five semi-final series in the Senior Nickel Belt League last night by handing the coniston Red Sox a 7-5 defeat. The Greyhounds won the game on a rally that started with two-away in the ninth. Oshawa Merchants earned a 3-0 lead in their best - of - nine final series in the Senior Ontario Base- ball Association defeating Peter- boro 7-1. They meet in Peterboro again tonight. Series winner faces the top Intercounty League team Sept. 8. In the Niagara District League Welland stokes took a 3-0 semi- final series lead over St. Catha- rines Stags as Frank Buzash fired a no-hit, no-run game. Final score was 1-0 in the best-of-seven en- counter. Only rough spot for Bu- zash came in the seventh inning when he gave up two walks with wo out. Last night Peterboro Marines and Oshawa Merchants were sus- pended from the Viaduct Major Baseball league in which they have played against Torontd area teams. The suspension followed the teams' failure to play a best-of- three series, ordered by league EARL HALL of 92 Westmoreland Avenue, Osh- awa, is shown above, holding (with difficulty) the beautiful 'lunge he landed last Sunday, while trolling on Lake Dalrymple, right out in front of his own cottage.

Oshawa won the . first two games then, last night, they played a third game in an apparent effort to carry the series to a best-of-five or best-of-seven. Oshawa won again 7-1. Also in the Viaduct League, Kingsway Lumber was awarded the elimination series game at Mil- len Stadium 9-0 over Croftons after four and one half innings of play. The game ended when umpire Gord? Fevereau "ordered pitcher Harry Wolfe off the Crofton Bench. Wolfe had started for the Croftons but had been relieved in the first inning. He was in street clothes when the umpire ordered him away and he refused to leave. Wolfe has been suspended by the league for his actions. The Croftons - Stafford game set for tonight has been cancelled. RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT Toronto long ago earned the nickname Hogtown, but never has that title been more clearly apparent than in the recent baseball finagling against both the Oshawa Senior 'and Junior baseball teams, Both are strong clubs . . . both threats for the Toronto City title. The TBA does not wish an outside team to cop these championships and {is doing everything in its power to make it dificult for the local crews to do so. The Merchants don't care . . . they, along with Peterboro, have withdrawn and will play their own series to decide a winner to meet the Intercounty champs. The Transporters are in a different fix however, They are the North Toronto league reps in TBA minor play-offs and must meet all the other teams in the city before advancing into the OBA play-offs. It sounds alright when you say it like that, but it so hap- pens that the other leagues in Queen City don't want to play any Toronto titular play-off games in Oshawa , . . and right now are really getting in- sistent about it. This espec- ially from Milwaukee Sports, the West Toronto champs. A suggestion that Bruins of the NTBA be re-instated to , represent that loop against the other Toronto Leagues for the Queen City title was actually put forth . .. leaving Oshawa out in the cold, until the title series had been played. The winner would then meet the locals . . . who would have had a 2 or 3 week lay-off and be relatively soft touches. If that doesn't sound the business! like The Church League Tennis group at the OTC has declared champions for the present sea- son, The loop, formed as a part of This is the time of year that sec- ond-division clubs have fun knock- ing off the contenders. The lesser lights, relaxed and with' nothing at stake, exact a de- gree of vengeance in beating the tense teams involved in the flag chases. Philadelphia Athletics, who will have to pay their way into the world series, have been making merry of late with the top four teams in the American league. The A's, a sad seventh, knocked Cleveland Indians out of a first place tie with New York Yankees yesterday, beating the Tribe 6-2. The idle Yanks moved a half game in front. During the last few weeks the A's have split eight games with the Yanks, divided six with the third- place Boston Red Sox and took three out of four from Chicago's fourth-place White Sox. Rookie Lefthander Morrie Mar- tin, with help in the eighth from Carl Scheib, posted his tenth vic- tory against four setbacks in down- ing the Indians. GETS 7TH LOS§ Bob Feller, gunning for his 21st victory, was tagged for his seventh defeat. The A's clipped Feller for a pair of runs in the second and added four more in the third. An error by outfielder Bob Kennedy with the bases loaded and two out permitted three of the four third inning runs to score. Martin was lifted in the eighth after he forced a run home by walking Luke Easter with the bases loaded. Scheib came on, got Al Rosen to bang into a double play to end the rally. The third-place Red Sox downed the Detroit Tigers, 10-4, to move to within 4% games of the Yanks. The Red Sox iced the game with four runs in the ninth, Chuck Stobbs started and gained credit for his ninth "victory but Ellis Kinder saved the game by stop- SECOND DIVISION HI-JINKS...

Cincinnati 3-1, Pittsburgh Pirates clipped New York Giants 10-9, St. Louis Car- dinals defeated Philadelphia 6-3 and Boston Braves swamped. Chi- cago Cubs 16-2. Preacher Roe and Clyde King stopped the Reds on seven hits at Brooklyn. Roe left in the seventh when his pitching arm tightened but gained his 18th victory against two losses. Connie Ryan homered for. the lone Red run in the first inning. The Dodgers tied the score against Ewell Blackwell in the fifth and won out in the sixth when Gil Hodges singled home Duke Snider from third. HOMERS FEATURED Home runs featured the Giant- Pirate game. Ralph Kifer won the game for the Bucs by belting his 37th homer in the ninth inning. Rookie Frank Thomas, Gus Bell and Pete Castiglione also homered for the Pirates while Willie Mays banged two and pinch-hitter Bill Rigney one for the Giants. Murray Dickson, working in relief, picked up his 18th victory for the tail- enders. The loss dropped the Giants seven games back of Brooklyn. The Braves pounded a trio of Chicago pitchers for 15 hits to al- low Jim Wilson to coast to his sixth victory. Wilson and Sam Jethroe led the assault with three hits each, Earl Torgeson chipped in with a three-run homer. Roy Smalley aceounted for both of Chicago's runs with a homer in the seventh. Veteran . Lefthanders Al Brazle and Harry Brecheen collaborated in pitching the cards to victory at Philadelphia. Brazle worked the first six innings and received cre- dit for his fourth victory. The Cards jumped on rookie Niles Jor- dan for four runs in the fourth inning to win the game. " BASEBALL STANDINGS NATIONAL LEAGUE w 82 76 assaesasannNt Brooklyn New York Boston i St. Louis ....

In quarter-final play, St. Gregory's defeated Simcoe Street in mixed doubles, men's doubles and won by default in women's doubles. Christ Church took all three of the doubles tests from Northminster and King Street advanced to the semi-finals with wins over St. Andrew's in men's doubles and women's doubles and a default in mixed doubles. King Street defaulted their semi-final series leaving St. Gregory's and Christ Church to battle it out for the champion- ship. This they did, with the fine team from Christ: Church com- ing out on top with wins in all three divisions. They won 6-3 men's doubles, 6-0 in wom- en's doubles, and 9-7 in mixed doubles. Hail the new champs , . . three huzzahs for their or- ganizer, his work was what gave 'em the title, , CHECKLETS -- See where Tommy Anderson, one-time coach of the Oshawa Generals will be handling the top job for the Calgary Stampeders of the newly re-organized Pacific Coast Hockey League. Along the same line, we hear that Red Hamill will be the new mentor of the Galt Black Hawks for the coming season, despite other persistent rum- ors. Al Murray, coach last year, will act as manager for the coming season. Hamill is of course the gent who spent some years in the NHL with the Chicago Hawks. 'The~ Oshawa Transporters will hold a practice on Sunday morning down at the Stadium (10:30). All players are ad- vised to be on hand, In a telephone 'conversation with Bert Holman, prexy of the NTBA, it was learned yes- terday that it's unlikely that the Transporters will see ac- tion until next Wednesday or Thursday at the best. Speaking with Ted O'Connor, one of last season's Generals, we hear that he will be leav- ing for a hockey training camp in the near future . . . likely that of the Hershey Bears. Ted is Boston property, you may remember. And the tale is that Alex Del- vecchio may not be back in Oshawa as was hoped part way through the summer. Rumor has it he's signed pro with the Wings. Another General from last season, Herve DeJordy, will be returning from his home in St. Hyacinthe, P.Q. in the next few weeks. A tennis en- thusiast, "Herby" did very well in the Kingston tourney some weeks back. He copped men's singles and doubles titles, but dropped the final in the mixed tourney. + « «+ By Bob Rife.

Thursday Philadelphia 6, Cleveland 2 BE PREPARED FOR HOSPITALITY WITH cltely LABOR DAY SPECIALTY... Ontario Bicycle Championships Here Sept. 3rd Oshawa has numerous special days throughout the summer sea- son that sports-minded people automatically relate with certain specific sporting events, such as the 24th of May baseball opening, the July 1st motorcycle races, etc. Labor Day brings to mind bicycle racing, a sport that has been held on that day for many years and which will again be the top attrac- tion in the city this coming Mon- day afternoon. ; The Victor Cycle Club of Osh- awa "which has for many years sponsored the Ontario Cycling Championships here at Alexandra Park will, in conjunction with the Oshawa Labor Council, again pre- sent a fine program of racing on Labor Day. As in the past, the meet will draw most of the top bike riders of the province and thrilling, top-notch competition is assured. Over the-years, Oshawa has pro- duced many winners in these races. Lance Pugh, former star member of the club, was a pre-war all- round Ontario champion; in 1948, Frank Ball captured top honors; Bill Hamilton scored top points in 1949, while last year saw Ball lose out to Fred Henry of Toronto by the narrow margin of two points. Again this year, the local club will be well represented in all events and should not take a back seat to anyone. Alan Essery, young 18-year-old Canadian % and %- mile sprint champion, will be out to add to his laurels and it will take a fast boy to stop him. LEGION MINOR BASEBALL COKES DEFEAT BEATONS AGAIN In the second game of their Legion Minor Baseball Midget play- off, Cokes handed Beaton's Dairy their second setback, winning 10-2 last night at Alexandra Park. J. Steffen pitched for the losers and allowed two runs in the first, five in a devastating fifth and three in the sixth. Mallett threw for Cokes and gave up eight scattered hits for two runs. Beatons counted one in the second and one in the top of the fifth. L. Steffen and Sharples led the losers at bat, with Cole and Bemis doing a job for the winners. BEATONS -- Malloy, cf; Parry, 2b; J. Steffen, p; L. Steffen, If; Sharples, 3b; Morrison, ss; White, 1b; Knight, p; Morden, rf; and Goodall, cf in 5th. COKES -- Bemis, c; Cole, 1b; Towns, ss; Mallett, p; Barnes, 3b; Puckalski, rf; Abbott, cf; Gillespie, Bill Hamilton, a member of Can- ada's 1943 Olympic team and 1950 British Empire squad, will be out in a comeback attempt and will be a strong contender. Frank Ball, former: all-round Ontario champion and winner of two titles here last year, is making an effort to get back in shape after a week's illness. Cal Blake is another Oshawa rider to be reckoned with. Al- though never having won a title, he has had numerous seconds and thirds and is out this time to break the jinx. ; The Class "B" and Novice events will see Ken Harmer and-Johnny Lyons trying for their initial wins and either one of them could turn the trick. Strong opposition will come, as usual, from Toronto. George Bronetto, last year's 5-mile cham- pion, will be making an all-out bid for the all-round crown. Bill Whit- taker, 1949 10-mile title-holder, wall be another standout in the sprints. The longer distance events will favor Art Johnston and Eric Fel- lows of Toronto. Johnston just re- cently placed second in a 150-mile event in Winnipeg and repeated that performance at Montreal in a 170-mile grind. Fellows was a member of the British Olympic team in 1948 and is the 10-mile record-holder of the British Em- pire, Everything points to a top-notch race meet and all that is neevied to bring that about is good weather and a fast, hard track.
