TWO STRAIGHT St. John's Oust Northminster * 'Reach Church League Finals St. John's advanced to the cham- pionship finals in the Inter-Church tball League playoffs, when they feated Northminster 11-3 last night at Alexandra Park to sweep this semi-final series in two-straight glmes Johnny Masewich was on the mound for St. Johns and in top form as he mowed down eleven strikeout victims and scattered ten hits over the distance, never more than one safety to an inning, until the 9th when Northminster bunched three safe hits--and still failed to score. 'Cornish homered in the second for the losers, Phillips banged a circuit clout in the fourth inning and McLaughlin doubled in the fifth and scored on an outfield error, to account for the three Northminster runs. St. Johns got two runs in the second frame, doubles by Cirka and Booth, folled singles by Mas- ewich and Kornylo, doing the trick. They added one in the fourth and then broke up the 3-3 tie with a 4-run splurge on as many hits plus an error, in the sixth with Booth's double climaxing this rally. The score stayed at 7-3 until the 9th inning when St. Johns "put it on ice" with another fiur-run affair, a couple of infield errors and Cirka's double and one by Kap- cynski being the deciding factors.

North Oshawa boys scored runs in every inning, usually five or even six, as they piled up a one- sided, 25-7 victory over Thornton's Corners in their Bantam League game at the North Oshawa dia- mond last night. Too many walks by the visiting hutler, plus poor support in the in- field, told the story as North Osh- awa had it all their own way. The visitors were weak at the plate, getting their share of walks but being unable to cash 'in on these and turn them into runs by means of timely hitting.

Last night at the first for- mal appearance of Coach Jack Wedley, it wasn't the rain of water from the sky that scar- ed away the boys, but more the thoughts of the rain of water from 'their brows . . : due (a) the very warm weather; (b) their poor condi- tion and (e) the apparent tough character of the coach. At any rate, before the time limit for starting was up some 18 players showed and the Coach began issuing uniforms. This business will all that takes place this week. Next week, when {t's hoped the weather will be a littlé more co-operative, the real grind will: begin. Players or fellows who'd like to try for a place on the club are urged to get down to the clubhouse one day early this week . . . otherwise you'll never get that particular set of harness which you so liked last year. Further . . . the fewer local players who turn out, the more players Jack will bring from the Toronto and district - and points west. That's the way he's working it this year. Local boys have first shot at the team. It's a very nice viewpoint . . . we hope said boys don't abuse it. Of course the workouts are being held each night this week for those who really want to get in shape . . . informal ones, but you get loose that way too The place is the Red Raider clubhouse on McMillan Drive. The time after 6.30 p.m. any evening. , CHECKLETS -- We hear that a rather unfortunate acci- dent in a softball game Tre- cently resulted in Harry Sin- den fracturing his jaw. Harry playzd defence for the Oshawa Generals last season and is one of th players which Wren Blair is expecting to turn out with the Smith Truckmen. A recent returnee from the Scottish Ice Hockey League is Whit Mousseau, who played with the Barrie Flyers in 1946- 47 Whit is back home in Powassan and has an offer al- ready to play with Noranda Copper Kings and North Bay Black Hawks. It says here that the Kings may be coached by Les Doug- las, ex-pro with Montreal Roy- als of the QSHL last season. Paul Brown, coach of the Cleveland Browns, says he's baffled by the reports that John Kissel, a 250-pound tackle who starred with the Browns last year, is turning out with the Ottawa Rough Riders. Brown said Coach Clem Crowe of the Riders, "wouldn't do a thing like that . you sure you have the right Kis- sel?" We're glad to note the up- swing in the Transporter bat- ting averages of late. The whole club was in a bit of a slump during the last week of June and the first two of July, but they are smacking the ball with some regularity again . . . especially outfielder Bill Cook. Himself has some .488 points in his batting average. Not bad for a crippled ol' hoss! During that recent Major League All-Star game, Satchel Paige was asked if he had ever pitched against any of the National Leaguers he faced in this 20th All-Star game. The long- geared Negro re- plied, "Not against them. I pitched against some of their fathers." And now you figure how old he is. . by Bob Rife. Indians Knock Off Cardinals In URWA Picnic Tournament In the first game of the UAWA Union Picnic Tournament elimina- tions, Indians eliminated Cardinals 15-8. Foster on the mound for Indians, received good support and it wasn't until the closing frames that the could click. Indians scored three runs at the start and added to their total ir every inning except the 9th--and by that time they didn't need any more.

EAST DIAL 3-225% BROOKS WIN 3-0 THE DATLY TIMES-GAZETTE, Tuesdey, July #1, - " All-Star Pitching Magic Rubbed Off On Dressen By BEN PHLEGAR Associated Press Sports Writer Some of the National League's best pitching magic must have rubbed on cheerful Charlie Dressen at the all-star game. After associating with the likes of Robin Roberts, Warren Spahn and Co., Charlie has come home to Brooklyn and with a wave of the hand--the one he used to wag frantically at the bullpen--he's suddenly converted a staff of throwers into a reasonably-danger- ous assortment of pitchers. Russ Meyer Jim Hughes combined Monday night to pitch the second Dodger shatout in seven games, a five-hit 3-0 effort against Chicago Cubs that stretched the Brooklyn lead over the idle Mil- waukee Braves to 3% games. The only other action Monday was in Pittsburgh, where the Pirates preserved their lead in a suspended Sunday game to beat St. Louis Cardinals 6-4 and then bowed in a regularly scheduled contest 9-4 as Steve Bilko broke a batting slump with two home runs and a pair of singles. Meyer and Hughes were lucky to get out of the ninfh inning with- out. being scored upon since the first four Cub batters reached first base. . Eddie Miksis started it with a double. Dee Fondy walked. Ralph Kiner singled and Randy Jackson's sinking liner fell in front of right- fielder Don Thompson. By now there vere twn men out. Impossible? Not in Brooklyn. Miksis' double war legitimate. So was Fondy's walk. But Kiner's blow, a screaming knee-high drive toward centre field, struck Miksis on the leg. The base runner was out' automatically, the ball was dead and the rules credit Kiner with a single. With Fondy on second and Kiner on first, Dressen switched from Meyer to Hughes. Jackson looped one over the infield that fell in short right for an apparent hit, but Kiner held too long at first and was forced at second by Thomp- son's throw. The victory was the sixth in seven games for Brooklyn since the all-star break. For the Pirates Paul Lapalme picked up where h: left off Sunday and pitched four more scoreless innings to win his fourth game. The Cards had been at bat in the sixth with one out when the Sun- day curfew forced a halt. ular game, Pittsburgh with four runs up. Bilko homered with the bases empty in the fourth and with manager Eddie Stanky aboard in the ninth." Peanvts Lowrey drove in two tuns with a triple in the sixth inning. Cliff Chambers, sec- ond of four St. Louis pitchers, re- ceived credit for his first victory of the season. Everybody gets back into the act today and tonight. New York Yankees continue their scorching tour through the west with a night game against the sinking Cleveland Indians. Chi- cago White Sox, stopped cold Sun- day by the Yanks whom they now trail by six games, entertain the red-hot Boston Red Sox. Phildtfel- phia visits St. Louis and Washing- ton is in Detroit for a day game. In the National League Phila- delphia plays host to Milwaukee in a twi-night twin bill, St. Louis moves to New York for anight game, Cincinnati is in Pittsburgh at night and Chicago is at Brook- lyn for an afternoon contest. LEGION MINOR BASEBALL ASSOC. BEATON'S DAIRY DEFEAT VICTOR'S SPORTS £ CYCLE In a Legion Minor Bantam League game at Alexandra Park last night, Beaton's Dairy nosed out Victors 7-6, scoring three runs in the sixth inning to come from behind for the upset triumph. Victors got two runs in the sec- ond on two walks and one hit, plus a lot of stolen bases and they added three runs in the third on two hits, Jeffs' triple being the big blow. After that Victors didn't do a thing at the plate until Jeffs' singled in the 7th and scored on a stolen base, infield error and single by Powell. Beaton's Dairy got one in the second when Branch homered off McClelland and they added another | in the third on a walk, stolen base and a single. Two singles, two walks and an infield error gave Beaton's Dairy two more runs in the fourth but they still trailed 54 until the 6th. In the 6th, after one out, with Wills now pitching for Victors, Roberts singled, so did Rockbrune, Parks and Branch all in succession. Andor forced Rockbrune but Mar- den singled and then an infield error completed the 3-run rally for Beaton's Dairy, put them in front 7-5 and they held Victors to one run in the Tth.
