In the 4th, Herman Mason got a freakish run. With two out, he popped out but was given 1st base on interference by the catcher. He stole 2nd and went to third when the catcher"s bad throw went to centre field and when that fielder threw badly to 3rd, Mason kept on running, to score. Oshawa's 3-0 lead was wiped out in the fifth inning. Two walks and an infield single that just missed being a force-out, ended Ted Stones stay. Johnny Walter came in and fielded two hits and a walk after a long fly. Russ Evon, who had one of the hits, stole "ome and was called safe, although catcher Garbark appeared to have him blocked off the plate. Umpire Stan- ley fired Manager Garbark from the game, for arguing the decision too vigorously. Bud Ripplemeyer then replaced Walter and was greeted by Don Mayes' two-run triple. As it turned out, that ended Lon- don's 5-run rally. Ripplemeyer gave up a run of his own on an error in the infield and triple by Gerry Wilson in the 6th, but he was in command the rest of the distance. Thed O'Connor's 350 homer over the right field wall, tied the score in the bottom of the fifth. Jimmie Jones had reached first on an er- ror.

Herman Mason received the Burns' Jewellers "King of, the Diamond' diamond ring, as most popular member of the Merchants for the month of June. Johnnie Jones, inimitable diam- got his second hit of the game, a drive into his wrong field, just inside the foul line and when Berning juggled this one for a second, it gave McMaken time to score London's fourth run. Bud Ripplemeyer came in and forced Russ Evon to ground out, to end the inning. Ripplemeyer pitched to only six batters in the next two frames and Wayne Grand- colas, who took the mound in the 8th, also faced only six batters in his two innings of duty. Both Ripplemeyer and Grand- colas were very effective, but the damage had been dane. STAFFORD BROS.
