[} [HURDSAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT Ww that yesterday we mentioned the fact that the Oshawa Transporters had ob- tained a new deal from the TMBA and 'were going to con- Since hearing the tricky rami- fications of the "deal," we are inclined to think that the guy tossing the cards at the Trans- porters was a sharper from way back and passed a few off the "sottom of the deck. Here are a couple of the 1) Oshawa will use Toronto umpires and ONLY Toronto umpires in all future TMBA "ne The {first game of the best-of-three series with Moss Park will be played in Oshawa tonight, but the second of the set won't be played in Toronto until next MONDAY night. Kinda delaying the series wot? To say that Manager Ab Walker is Working up to boiling point would be an understate- ment. The chappie has blown his lid twice thus far in the series and right now his con- tacting any inflammable prod- uct could easily bring on a conflagration. Ab figures the Toronto clubs are stalling . . . waiting for Oshawa to lose two key men through hockey training camps. He figures the umpire deal has an odor like three-day-old dead fish left drying in a hot sun. He could be right! » What's with this hockey train- ing camp business? Well, both Ted O'Connor and Frank Hooper are listed as prospective hockey players by the Boston Bruins, and both are expected out at the Bruins' pro camp in Hershey, Pennsylvania, on the 18th of this month. They'll naturally have to leave before that time to get to Hershey for the opening. Those two players represent che only two regular catchers on the local club. Little wonder then that Mr. Walker wants to get this much delayed TMBA series over and done. Having the second game of the set played in Toromto on Monday night when it could be played Saturday afternoon is peculiar . . . but the excuse given is the fact that Millen Stadium (home of the Viaduct League, out of which the Mer- chants were recently tossed) will be busy that day with Viaduct play-offs. Moss Park want to play their games at that stadium. They figure they'll do better finan- So they delay the second game till Monday night when Millen is free for bookings. 'Course the mere fact that Monday is one of the worst, if mot the worst, crowd-drawing nights of the week, didn't faze 'em in the least. Perhaps we should inform these Toronto crews who are hoping to catch us with our catchers down, that we have another guy signed and eligible « + « Bob Gallagher from Bow- manville. Besides him, young Hank Jozkoski, the second- string ouifielder with the club has also done some catching this season, and in league com- petition too! We may yet fool the Queen City crabbers. CHECKLETS -- From what:. we hear, the two Oshawa Col- legiates, OCVI and CCI, will field one combined Senior foot- ball team, but are likely to place two junior clubs in the battle. This is the first step in break- ing apart the football set-up. Basketball and other sports were carried on last year on a separate basis, but it was felt that since so few candidates were turning out for football, of ar the city 1 collegiates could offer. a Having spoken with Harold McNeil, the director of Simcoe Hall, we feel as he does that in two short weeks the gymnasium should be ready for an official opening. Outside plastering is taking place right now, while' flooring and minor woodwork problems are being fixed up on the inside. The actual painting and finish- of the gym {floor should around Wednesday of nexi week. Along that football line, we hear that the Red Raiders have five more tryouts down from Toronto this week. Of that group, four are colored boys. Wonder if one of these will fill out that line spot at middle that has been bothering Cogch Cos- grove? He says he has a quar- terback now to fill the hole that was felt on opening day against Balmy Beach Seniors. To your list of hockey gossip, add the fact that two big de- fence types are in town from Winnipeg. Both clamber around the six-foot mark and have the weight needed for their posts. « « « by Bob Rife. MINOR SOFTBALL Bantam and Midget RUNDLE PARK MIDGETS OUST AJAX THREE-STARS IN SEMI-FINAL SERIES Rundle Park Midgets captured the semi-final series §f the B'Nai B'Rith Midget Softball League in two-straight games, when they de- feated Ajax Three-Stars, 16-10, last night at Rundle Park. Rundle Park Midgets will now meet Connaught Park in the fin- als for the B'Nai B'Rith League championship and trophy, in a 3- out-of-5 championship series which will open at 6.15 p.m. on Monday at Connaught Park. Ajax scored three runs in each of the first two frames and two more in the third but after that they bogged down and a pair in the sixth was the best the Ajax team could do after Fenton stead- ied away. Rundle Park got five runs in the first frame when Johnston climaxed their rally with a homer. Three more runs in the third and steady scoring in every inning after that brought victory to Rundle Park in a convincing manner.

Bernie Daoust Wins Canadian Championship Toronto -- The season-long, see- saw battle for the Canadian power- boat championship in the big 225 Class, Division II came to an end at the CNE, Toronto, today (Wed- nesday) when Bernie Daoust, La- chine, Que., 22-year-old member of one of Canada's keenest speedboat- ing families, captured the Canadian Schenley Trophy at the wheel of his "Canada Maid IL." Daoust clinched the Trophy with the long lead he had built up during the two-month racing season. Close on Daoust's "rooster tail" spray came Bill Hodgson of Toronto in "My Ruthie," to cut in half the 400-point lead Daoust brought to Toronto. Hodgson, hero of yester- day's fatality when Frank Smith, veteran Kingston driver was killed in the 135 Class, saw victory slip -from his grasp when he was dis- qualified in the second of today's heats for crossing the starting line ahead of time, Daoust, who since his arrival for the Toronto regatta has been besef by; misfertunes in the form of broken fuel lines and burned bear- ings, picked up only 80 points CRA SOFTBALL PEE WEE BOYS AND GIRLS BANTAM GIRLS -- MIDGET GIRLS VICTORY AUSTINS CLIP CONNAUGHT In a CRA Minor Softball Associa- tion Girls Midget League game play- ed at Victory Park last night, the home crew walked away with an 8-5 win over the visiting Connaught iris ® Sager pitched for the winners and allowed Connaught one run in the frame homer led her club at bat. and gave up one tally in the first, and two in the sixth.

"The credit for this must go to our manager, Al Lopez. He, more than anyone or anything, must be recognized as the chief factor in the club's surge. "Lopez has the confidence of every one of his happy players. Win, lose or draw in this race, Al is the No. 1 pilot of the year . . . second and four in the fourth for |= their total.

Lopez is getting a good salary to make the decisions When the time comes that we have to make them for Rule Fourth Ont. Jockey Off Tracks Toronto (CP)--Apprentice Jockey became the fourth apprentice rider ruled off Ontario race tracks for life. The Ontario Racing Commission, investigating allegations of fixed races on provincial tracks, said Bromby accepted bribes from other jockeys and other persons to induce him to interfere with the true run- ning of horses entered in racing during the July meeting at Fort Erie, Ont. Bromby rode North Drive, win- ner of one of the allegedly fixed races. All told, nine riders, counting the four apprentices, have been ruled off for life since the /race-fixing investigation started early in Au- gust. One owner-trainer has been given a lifetime suspension. Four a fifth still is sought. Three other men have been arrested on crimi- nal charges. him, he's no. longer of use to the Cleveland club." Lopez, from the siart, had the cooperation of Ryan, general man- ager Hank Greenberg and the players, but not the fans. They want: no part of him. They were still resentful over the dismissal of popular Lou Boudreau and they weren't in a mood to cot- ton to any new manager. '"Al is one of the best managers in the business," said veteran catcher Birdie Tebbetts. "Having his own experience as a player he treats everyone the way he wantd,to be treated when he was a player. He's one of us, but there's never any question as to who is in charge." . The 41-year-old Lopez, a major league catcher for 18 years and holder of the endurance rec... os. catching 1918 games, has his own simple philosophy when it comes to running a ball club. "We're dealing with men, not boys," le says, "and I treat them accordingly. They're all big leagu- ers. I believe in letting players do their own thinking and make their own decisions. It gives them con- fidence." Lopez who launched his big league career at 22, spent six sea-| son. in Brooklyn, five years with Boston Braves and six: with Pitts- burg before being traded to Cleve- land in 1947. He managed In- cianapolis of the American Asso- ciation three seasons, never finish- ing lower than second.
