HIS THIRD VICTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Youthful ,Eddie Drapcho hurled third straight victory for Guelph Maple Leafs of the Senior Intercounty Baseball League Fri- day night. The Leafs trimmed St. Thomas Elgins 3-1 and moved inte third place. Drapcho breezed through the first two wins but it took all he had for Friday night's decision. Kitchener Panthers dropped Brantford Red Sox 8-4 in the only other game played. London Majors were scheduled to meet Oshawa Merchants and Galt Terriers were to meet Waterloo Tigers but rain forced postponement. London plays a doubleheader at Oshawa tonight. Drapcho was opposed in a mound dual with Elgins' Don Summers. Summers gave up only four hits to seven by Drapcho but he Eddie Drapcho Wins Another. As Guelph Downs St. Thomas sixth with the bases loaded and two out. He struck out Bob Thur- man and then in the seventh he fanned three straight and got out of a clinch in the ninth by leaving three runners stranded walked eight. Drapcho p d five. Only run off Drapcho came in the third when Fred Wasiluk scored on an irfield roller. Leafs tied the game in their half of the third on walks and went on in the fourth to win the game. The Panthers' slow heaver, Billy Allan, subdued a late Brantford rally for the Kitchener victory. Al- lan replaced Chuck Fedoris in the innings on five hits and errors. Dick Welker hammered four men home, two on a circuit clout, the others on a hit and a Jong fly ball. Mat Lipka was the losing pitcher. ' Tonight Waterloo is at Kitchener; London at Oshawa in a double- header; Guelph at Galt, and Brant- ford at St. mas. LONDON (Reuters)--It was a bowlers' benefit at Nottingiam F'ri- day in the second day of the first English - Australia test cricket match, with 13 wickets dropping for 184 runs. Australia collapsed soon after lunch, their last six wickets going for six runs, to end with 249 on the scoreboard. England replied with 92 runs for six wickets at close of play, needing eight to avoid the follow on. took seven Aus- SPORTS MENU "Everything from Soup to Nuts" by Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR Chalk up another win for the weatherman! Old Man. Pluvius has been playing havoc with the Inter-County League schedule and he struck another blow last night, at the Oshawa Merchants, Right after knocking off those league-leading London Majors right on their own diamond, "White's hill" and all. our Merchants were really geared to wallop the Majors again--and look what happens, not even to a dog it should. There was more baseball talk around the city yesterday morning than we've heard all season and it looks as if the Merchants have stirred up a lot of interest ahd enthusiasm with their victory over the league-leaders. It was too bad that the rain arrived to spoil the return engagement last night, However, London. Majors are here today and last night's game is being played this afternoon at two-thirty o'clock and then the second game will be tonight at eight-thirty, As mentioned in, yesterday's column, "Bud" Ripplemeyer, the big right-hander Wayne Grandéolas brought here with him, proved to be a real hurler in that 3-hitter he pitched at London. "Butch" Lawing belted a two-run homer in the 8th to break the thrilling scoreless deadlock. By the way, the batting records re- leased today reveal that Lawing is now right up there with the top hitters of the league, second highest of the Merchants, with Ted O'Connor still leading the entire circuit, These figures pub- lished today do not include Thursday night's game either---when Lawing had three hits--so he'll be up on O'Connor's heels by the week-end, if he clicks in each of the two games here today. With two games here this afternoon and evening, it, seems cer- tain that Mgr. Mike Garbark will elect Wayne Grandcolas as his starting pitcher for one of the assig ts. The popular port- sider was a real favorite with Oshawa ball fans last season and 'if he comes up with another term of fine hurling such as he dis- played for the Merchants in the Niagara District loop, our I-C friends are in for trouble, The game tonight should attract the season's biggest crowd. ' They're coming back--the ruffian roughriders or Texan terrors, the cowboy team of Dick Raines and Lou Plummer. Promoter Pat Milosh is bringing this pair of hombres here on Tuesday night for the main bout of his wrestling card and their opponents will be none other than Bobo Brazil and Timothy Geohagen. What with the koko- konk and the "Irish Sleeper'--the broncho-busters are going to have plenty of trouble hog-tying a win in this one. The semi-final bout brings Billy Stack up against Firpo Zbysko and a couple of Hamil- ton's ambitious operators, Tom Collins and Abe Zvonkin will tangle in the opening bout, . In order to accommodate the large number of stock car racing fans who haven't got their own transportation, Dave Goldberg and Hartley Schipper nave arranged for bus service direct to Oshawa Motor Raceways and return trip right after the races are over. These special buses will leave from the Gray Coach terminal, Prince Street, from seven-thirty, on. A. special 50-lap feature will be the highlight of the program at the stock car track tonight and all the top drivers are scheduled to be on hand for this one--and ready to go all-out in their efforts to earn the ballots of the fans as "most popular driver", There's a TV set to be given to the most popular driver, decided by ballot, as well as a set each Saturday night to one of the lucky voters, Don't know when we got as much kick out of anything as read- ing all about the big hockey meeting at Montreal this week and the furor that was created when the NHL terminated their agreement with the CAHA--with the actual termination of course, being still two years away. It's like one of those poker games where the dealer blandly announces he's going to double the ante, no matter who opens the pot--or for hot much . . . or another version of it could be--"if you fellows (the C)\HA) den't do scmething about the situation, we (the NHL) are going to"! The pros are talking of running a post-season, Dominion- wide Junior playoff series embracing all the top Junior "A" teams--and about 25 of the 30 odd "A" teams are sponsored by pro clubs--so if the pros said to their Junior teams--"you've got to go in this""--it could mean cutiing down or even cutting qut entirely, the popular Memorial Cup series. That one we think-- is the NHL's big bluff--that's to scare the CAHA into putting back a bigger share of the gate receipts in the hands of the com- peting teams--and the teams are going to be fully in accord with that one. The NHL also criticizes the CAHA for its operational Alec Bed: tralian wickets for 55 runs. He thus brought his aggregate of test wickets to 189, equalling Sid Bar- nes' record for England. When England batted, fast-bow- ler Ray Lindwall spearheaded the Australian attack, taking three for Australian Captain Lindsay Has- sett got the first century of the test, with 115. He and Keith Miller put up a fourth-wicket stand of 109. Capfain Len Hutton added 43 for England before being caught by Ritchie Benaud. Reg Simpson and Denis Compton both were out for zeros. Trevor Bailey and Godfrey Evans were still at bat when stumps were drawn early on ac- count of bad light. The pitch was wet from over- Sticky Wicket Aids Bowlers In First Cricket Test Match night rain at Trent Bridge when Hassett and Miller resumed their overnight stand. They added 80 be- fore Miller was caught by: Tevor Bailey. Bedser clean-bowled Has- sett seven runs later, after lunch, and the rest of the Australians went down like sitting ducks. Hutton started for England with Don Kenyon, 'but Kenyon was caught 'by Hill after getting only eight in his first test appearance.

Brooklin Edges Brougham 2-1 Brooklin Stevenson Motors edged out Brougham Intermediates in a game played at Brougham last | night. Brown pitched the win for Brook- lin and allowed four hits in the cause. He saw the lone enemy run cross the plate in the last of the eighth when Wilson made first on a fielder"s choice, went to third on Ellicott's single and scored on an errored drive by Staley. Miller was the losing hurler for Brougham. He gave up 11 hits. The winners scored one run in the first inning and the other in the top of the ninth. Bill Mitchell came home in the first inning on singles by Arksey and D. Mitchell. The lone run in the ninth which won the game was scored by Carnwith. He led-off in that innings with a single, went to second on an infield out and scored wyen Johnston singled to centre. BROOKLIN: Graham, rf; John- ston, If; B. Mitchell, 3b; Arksey, ¢; D.

B. "Baldy" George, CAHA President from Kemptville, that one takes the gold-painted you-know-what! Says Mr. George--"the NHL will not last three years beyond the ending of the agreement with the CAHA" and further "It would end the present system of a 3-game tryout of amateur players with pro clubs and I should not be surprised if the CAHA decided that any player who signed for a pro team should be suspended from amateur hockey. for life"--and' further still--"last year there were between 50-70 reinstated pros in amateur ranks". He went on to say that a boy would have to be pretty sure he was going to stay in pro ranks for at least four or five years before he'd sign." Now that one--in effect--is like saying that after fighting the old bogy of "once a pro --always a pro" for donkey's years, the CAHA may be prepared to go right back to it. The result is obvious--Mr. George pointed it out himself. There'd be about 50 to 70 of the current senior players now with amateur clubs--not the same players but the same percent- age--who would no longer be eligible for amateur hockey--which would mean the almost certain death of senior hockey--in the ranks of the CAHA. They didn't have enough "old timers" to keep that Major series going as it was--and who put the current senior hockey back on the map if it wasn't such old pros as Tommy Burlington in Owen Sound, Pat Wilson and others In Stratford, Bobby Bauer in Kitchener-Waterloo, not to mention even. more glaring examples down in the Quebec circuit? And think of all the CAHA teams that look to retiring professional players when they look for a coach. A true-blue amateur suspension would have to interpret all these formet pros as ineligible to coach. It would just about mean that the only chaps who would play senior hockey would be those who refused to turn pro because of private business reasons (in which case they'd likely be also too busy for amateur hockey) or a host of ordinary performers, not even '"has-beens" but only "never- wases". Mr. George--PLEASE! There likely is a good solution--but for sure, this is not it! budget of $75,000 per annum--and it's about time bod criticized that one. It's an exhorbitant figure that almost has an odour of stray gravy.

International Schedule Cut To Two Games By THE CANADIAN PRESS _ Rain and threatening weather disrupted the International Base- ball League schedule Friday night, only two games being completed of the five scheduled. Rochester Red Wings shaded Springfield Cubs 2-1 and Buffalo Bisons outscored Ottawa Athletics 11-8. A double-header between Syr- acuse and Baltimore was posts poned due to rain and Montreal at Toronto was postponed because of threatening weather. At Springfield, the Red Wings made it two straight in their five- game series with the Cubs. Springfield outhit the Wings 10-6, nC uding two doubles, but couldn't deliver in the pinches against Jack Faszholz, sent down from the parent St. Louis Cardinals a week ago. John Pyecha started for Springfield but was wild and was charged with his second loss against no victories. At Buffalo, the Bisons jumped on two Ottawa pitchers for nine hits and seven runs in the first three innings to ease the way to their seventh victory in eight starts. Jack Wallaesa and Eddie Kazak led the early onslaught. Wallaesa drove in four runs in two frames with a double and his third homer since joining the Bisons last Sun- day. Kazak clouted two singles and a double in the first three chapters. ATKINSON STILL TOPS Miami --At 36, Ted Atkinson was top Jockey for the third time at Hialeah when he rode 37 winners during the 40-day season just closed.
