"Look at Ron Hastings, the Milwaukee shortstop. He led the league all year long and hasn t been able to buy a hit in the play-offs. Tony Yonik on the other hand is doing a fair job 0 " his ball we decided when Henry Sarnoveky came up with his best game this "ear, belting a homer, & triple, a single in four trips to the plate. He got on base that other time through an error and had an unofficial atbat in the form of a walk, It was his batting, plus that of young Hank Jozkoski (two- for-four) that did much to give the Transporters their big win. The locals now mark time till they play the Eastern Ontario winner sometime next week. This visitors from the east will be Kingston. They were nego- tiating for a Wednesday date at the Stadium, but that night has already been spoken for, so some other night will have to be fixed. A lino-operator at the plant here, a rabid Kingston ball fan, declares they'll give the Trans- porters a battle. We think the Oshawa juniors will take 'em. While the two Oshawa Col- legiate junior teams battle it out here Saturday at Alexandra Park (1.30 pam.) the combined Senior team has been practicing religiously every night on the back campus of Central Col- legiate and they are showing the kind of form that could make them a contender for COSSA championship honors. The club has lost a couple of big men in Ron Bilsky and Den * Cooper, but be that as it may, is shaping up as a fast, rough aggregation. and they have almost the same crew back for another season. Their big line of Ken Laufman, Chuck Henderson and Ron Murphy are returnees as are quite a few others. They are still looking for a replacement in a big depart- ment however, Goal-keeper CHff Hicks covered a lot of territory last season and despite the fact that young Den Lesser from Porcupine seems likely to nail down the job, we figure he'll have trouble filling Cliff's pads. We notice that George Nich- olson, who played a lot of ball for Stanton Fuels in the NTBA this year, will be turning out for the Junior "A" Marlies. He played at Stratford last year. Along that same track, some former Weston Dukes (the team that eliminated Oshawa Bees last year) will be up with their big brothers, Bill Harris, Ted Reid, Don McIntosh, Don Head, Ron Ingram, George Stoyan, Blair Livingstone and John Tol- ton, Despite the fact they are sup- posed to have next to nothing in the way of material this year, PCVS Seniors (football variety) are looked on by their fans as a strong club. The team has all of last year's line back except the ends. In the backfield Bev Goulding has Bryan Young, Dave Langhorne, Bob Craw, Warren Brown and Buster Jensen. Some seniors mixed with experienced jun- iors. It looks as if Peterborough is sacrificing their junior club for a strong senior crew. They ad- mittedly have little depth. Murray Grafstein, Don Ash and Jim Hendy are all out on the sick list. 'The Seniors open their season today with an exhibition game against Toronto Riverdale C.I in Peterborough. . +» +» by Bob Rife The Oshawa Transporters of 1950 shown above, marched as far in the OBA playoffs as the NTBA champion Peter Pan Cleaners would allow and then faded from the picture.

G.M.C. CUTTING & SEWING Well Thursday saw the opening of another season for the league. Al- though it was just a pre season get together, much of the preliminary business was disposed of. President Stan Huston opened the league and outlined the rules and regulations for the season. Captains and team names were selected and the mem- bers got<a lot of blows out of their system, With all this accomplished, the league should be in full swing by next Thursday. Prizes for the two high teams for each game were taken by Jokers and Lucky Strikes in the first game, "6" Shooters and Wildcats in the second and Bert's Gang and Jets in the third, High team triple went to "6" Shooters with 3301 and Bert's Gang with 3274. Elsa Cardinal took Ladies High Triple with a burning 628 while Bert Dingley captured the gents prize with a cool- 786. Nice bowling. To look at the other half--Low Triple went to Louise Kostur and Frank Newell with scores we shouldn't even mention, but we will (325 and 396). There we sald it and we're glad. To get back to bowling -- there were some good scores turned in and Bert Dingley 786, Rod Hendrie 724, Bill Pipher 677, Elsa Cardinal New York (AP) --Randy Turpin, | 628, Marje Bradie 618 and Frank {the 23-year-old Britisher who lost | Kellar 607 wil begin the year without {back the middleweight title to Ray | Robinson, said Friday he'd like an- |other shot at Sugar Ray in the S He said it was a practice of the | U the advantage of a handicap.

Remember we must start at 6:18 sharp. OSHAWA DAIRY LEAGUE After a lazy Summer jn pasture, two of the herds didn't do so well on the first night of bowling. The Hol« steins, captained by Ed. Henderson, i suffered a whitewashing when they met Grace Suddard"s Ayreshires, and the absence of 200 scores on either team was very noticeable. Vera Sar- geant was unable to attend to lead the Jerseys and they took a shel- lacking from Stan Sargeant's Guern- seys, If Stan Sargeant and Bud Hen- derson had been absent there would be no high scores to report, Stan was the outstanding bowler of the night with a nice triple of 683, fol- lowed closely by his teammate Bud Henderson with 674. The only other 600 score was rolled by Helen Hen- derson. High single honors went to Bud with 288 and 245 while Stan stacked up 257 and 221. Only one bowler made the Lemon League and in hopes that it won't happen again, we won't tell anyone that Peg Henderson only rolled 72. Stan's Guernseys Grace's Ayreshires . Vera's Jerseys .. Ed's Holsteins .. YOUNG LEGEND back and looks able to lead the team right through to a title. There are three members of the squad playing with the Red Raider Intermediate team, Wally Mozewsky, Bill Edwards and Mort Walsh, "Moose" is a first string back with the Inters, and "Beef" is the Raider offensive centre, They should pack plenty of wal- lop with a collegiate team. Al Hart and Rob Harris, the "Gold-Dust Twins" are return- ing for another season. Hart plays a wingback post while Harris teams with Buster Drew as a pair of experienced ends. Other old faces who'll strengthen the crew are Hig- ham, Goodfellow, Ford, Varga, Langmaid, and Ma joris. Coach Don Mecllveen has a system of plays that are easily learned and which can really befuddle an enemy . . . like for instance PCVS. CHECKLETS -- Alfie Pike, the coach of Guelph Biltmores, feels quite sure of his club this year. They were strong enough last season, as you'll remember, ball games of the season.

Tindall, p; 'Collins, ONE AND-A-HALF Bronx Bombers By JOHN CHANDLER Associated Press Sports Writer The New York Yankees, gunning for their third straight American League pennant, sported a one and one-half game lead Saturday over the Cleveland Indians -- their larg- est margin since Aug. 1. With the schedule rapidly runn- ing out, Casey Siengel's Bronx Bombers belted the Red Sox at Boston yesterday, 5-1, while the Indians were fumbling a game to the Tigers in Detroit, 7-6. The same four clubs hook up Saturday and Sunday, when the final week of the hectic season Ss. For the Yankees, the "magic number" is six, New York has eight games remaining -- seven of them with the Kea Sox. It the Yankees can win six, Cleveland could cop all five of its remaining contests, but still would wind up in second place. The Red Sox are five games back, hanging on the mathematical edge of elimination. Meanwhile in the National Lea- gue, the Brooklyn Dodgers were clubbed by the Philadelphia Phil- lies at Ebbets Field, 9-6, as Robin | Roberts hung up his 21st victory of the year. The defeat left the front- running Dodgers four games ahead of the idle New York Giants has nine more games to play, the Giants seven. The Bums can clinch the flag with five victories, even if the Giants win all seven. Stengel calls on Ed Lopat to face Boston's Mel Parnell in a battle of lefthanders Saturday. Lo- pat hit the 20 - win mark for the first time in his career Monday . when he beat Cleveland with three hits, He's 20 - 8 for the year, and #2 «1 against Boston. Parnell, stylish Boston ace with a 17 - 10 mark, is 3-1 against New York. Boston still bolds a commanding 10-5 edge over IN FRONT... Gain Ground On the Yanks in season play. Al Lopez, the Cleveland manager, will fire Bob Lemon (17 13) against Detroit's Bob Cain (11-12), in the second game of their series. Joe Dimaggio, back in the clean- up spot forthe Yankees, lined a single to centre in the first inning yesterday to score Yogi Berra and New York was out in front to stay. Four singles gave New York its second tally in the next inning. Bob Feller, seeking . his 23rd | victory for Cleveleand, blew a 5-0 lead to Detroit. Catcher Frank House hit his first major league homer to win the game in the sixth. With Willie Jones banging a frand slam homer in the first inning at Brooklyn, the Phillies ended the four-game winning streak of Rookie {Clem Labine who was knocked from [the box for the first time in five major league starts.
