» CHECKING SPORT By BOB RIFE The visitors at the Stadium tonight are the Colborne Dodg- ers . . who might more aptly be called the Belleville - Bata- wa - Colborne Combines. The team is fairly well bal- anced with older "pros" and younger players from right around Colborne. The "pros" in this case be- ing imported senior players in the form of Al Kelleher, Art Wright and others. Kelleher is the big heavy-set firstbaseman who also acts as manager of team. > But the fellow to watch is Wright. He does some pitch- ing . . . rather well too. . . and plays a lot of outfield, for his bat is a valued asset to the team. : Last time out against the Transporters, he connected for two long singles to centre in four trips with a walk tossed in. He accounted for three RBI's in this manner . . . mak- ing him look like a real clutch * slugger. Against this combination, the Transporters will very likely throw right-hander Cec Hall with Ted Stone standing by in case fireman help is necessary. Hall got knocked from the box in his last outing against Colborne, and Stone had to come on in relief to save the win for him. Since that time, * Cec was the victim of that very tough first loss for the Transporters in Lindsay. This is his first chance to heave since that time, and he'll really be trying to make good . . . especially since Col- borne is his old hometown! + CHECKLETS -- The follow- ing is a quote from Don Grant's column in the Peter- boro Examiner . . . "The well- " conditioned Trailermen have the legs for the speedy offen- sive work which the six-man (lacrosse) game is producing." Which is about what we not- ed in a column on the Ontario body's idea on changing the ame. We imagine the fans will fie the . . . and the few- er goals produced by the small- er nets, will make the games much more tension-filled. Sometne _ gute asked * where do e yers go the summer. 8 we y heard of many and varied oc- cupations, but for the most part they take up jobs like that of Tod Sloan and Gerry Toppaz- Sloan, a Toronto Leaf star, is tossing pop cases around up Sudbury way in an effort to build muscles, while Gerry, a Boston ace, is heaving ice in Copper Cliff. * In talking with Cec. Bint, 'business manager of the Osha- wa Merchants the other night, he mentioned getting the uni- form numbers from pitcher Ted Stone. Stone is the right - hander from the Transporters who has played some three or four games with the Merchants. It now looks very much as if Ted will be going up to stay with the Merchants . . . and soon too! Especially now with the Transporters due for a two- week lay-off through the GM holiday . . . Ted may figure he has more chance of throwing more ball with the I-C team. Ted O'Connor, leading slug- ger on the Merchants, and himself an old-boy of the Transporters, has complained that his recent batting slump . . . he was leading the Inter- county, but is now second . . . but due to no bats of his articular weight and length Pe available locally. - Cec Bint imported some via a Toronto umpire who was to be working the game here . . . and Ted broke the string. Now the,N.Y. Rangers have goaler Jonny Bowers, we im- againe "Gump" Worsley will head back to Saskatoon and the minor farm of the Rangers in the WHL. Gump played great hockey for the Rangers last year . . . his Calder award proves that. He deserves a better fate, wot? « + « by Bob Rife.

In the only other activity, Peter- borough Trailermen ran their win- ning streak to seven by edging Fergus Thistles 9-8. The rugged game at Fergus was climaxed by 10-minute penalties to Reterborough's Bob Thorpe and Ha Kazarian of Fergus for 2ignting while the Mimico contest was run off without a penalty being called. Don Smith fired three goals to pace the St. Catharines marksmen while Bill Nelson, Al Frick and Johnny Dewar all found the range twice. Rookie Larry Ruse, up from junior ranks, potted two for the ounties. Roger Smith and Nip O'Hearn were the only double scorers for Peterborough while Bob Dobbie and Ron Landoni fired three apiece for Thistles with Elmer Harris adding two, TRAINING DATES PITTSBURGH (AP )--. .itsburgh Hornets of the American Hockey League head for Niagara Falls Sept. 16 to begin training for the 1953-54 season.

SIMMONS LOSES By BEN PHLEGAR Associated Press Sports Writer The team that wins the National 'League pennant this year should give its members little lawn mow- ers to remind them of why Phila- delphia Phillies didn't win. The Phillies might still pull the big surprise, but it gets more un- likely by the day, particularly the days when Curt Simmons pitches and loses. This looked like a great year for Simmons. During the first month of the season he and Robin Roberts formed the most-feared left-right pitching combination in the majors. But one sunny day in early June Curt decided to cut some grass and he ran his power mower over his left foot. Part of his big toe had to be amputated. Simmons was sidelined a full month. He's been back in action 21% weeks now, but not with®any- thing like his early success.. In four starts he has won just once. Last night the Phillies threw Roberts and Simmons at the Mil- waukee Braves. Roberts won his 16tF game with ease 10-0 but Sim- mons didn't make it, giving up five runs and eight hits in six innings. The final score was 7-3. So, instead of gaining ground, the Phils still are seven games out Phillies' One-Two Pitching Lacking Its One-Time Power of first place and three behind the Braves. Both Phils and Braves lost half- a-game to pace-setting Brooklyn Dodgers who trampled Chicago 15-4, St. Louis whipped New York 10-6 and climbed back into first division at the expense of the Giants. Cincinnati defeated Pitts- burgh 7-2. Cleveland Indians finally de- feated New York Yankees in Cleve- land 8-3 with Bob Lemon winning his 13th game. Detroit shaded Washington 8-7 in 10 innings. Rain washed out night games in Chi- cago between the White Sox and Boston and in St. Louis between the Browns and Philadelphia. Cleveland's victory, a 13-hit as- sault on three New York pitchers, cut the Yankees' lead over Chicago to 5% games and moved the In- dians back into third place, 10 games back. Al Rosen, who makes a specialty of first-inning home runs, put the Indians in front with a two-run blast off Johnny Sain. Bob Kuzava came in hen Cleveland poured across three runs in the fifth and Ray Scarborough finished up. The success was Cleveland's first at home against the world champions this season. Washington appeared to have its. run home run of his own. game won against Detroit at least twice only to have the Tigers come back, first to tie, and the.. to win on Don Lund's two-run double in the 10th. Mickey Vernon put the Senators ahead witt a three-run homer in the ninth but Matt Batts evened things for Detroit with a ninth-inning homer. Then Washing- ton scored one run in the 10th. The Cubs used six pitchers in a futit attempt to silence the Dodger bats but only ancient Dutch Leon- ard met with any success, He pitched three scoreless innings. Against the other five, the Dodgers piled up 15 runs. The loss was the 14th for Warren Hacker, tops in both leagues. The Cardi als scored four runs off Sal Maglie in the first inning at New York, biggest opening frame they've had in a month. Two of the tallies came on a home run tributed a three-run homer in the fourth. Gerry Staley got credit for his 13th victory. Crafty Ken Raffensberger gave the Pirates 10 hits but only one of them -- Frank Thomas' t wo - run homer--was damaging.

But the most important game of the night turned out to be the Baltimore-Rochester affair. The Orioles defeated the Red Wings 3-1 to jump back into third place, within two games of the league leaders and a half-game behind Montreal. Veteran Lefty Ken Heintzelman got the Baltimore victory. He needed help in the ninth, after blanking the Wings for eight in- nings. | At Montreal, the fifth-place Leafs took the abbreviated contest 8-3, getting an early jump on the Royals. In the second game, Tom Lasorda's strong left arm and the homers of Ken Wood, Dick Whit- man and Charlie Thompson, gave Montreal a 7-1 victory and broke Royals Split With Leafs: Bisons Keep Atop League the club's longest losing streak since 1950--seven games. Sandy Amoros, the Royals' No. 1 man with the bat, walloped his 15th circuit clout of the season in the opener' Lasorda's second-game win was his 11th of the campaign. in the Canadian capital, the seventh-place Athletics won the nightcap 7-4, after Buffalo took the abbreviated opener 4-3. The Bisons took advantage of Bill Harrington's wildness in the opener scoring three runs in the first in- ning and the clinching run in the third. The As scored one run in the sixth on Taft Wright's homer and two more in a seventh-inning rally. The big blow of the second game came in the bottom of the sixth, when Joe Taylor hammered a two- out, bases-loaded double to break a 44 tle. ° In another game, Syracuse Chiefs outlasted Springfield Cubs for a 10-7 victory. The game was marred by nine errors, the Chiefs winning with five unearned runs in the fifth. OSHAWA MINOR SOFTBALL ASSOC.

THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Wednesisy, July M8, 1008 94 Ken Yount Paces Guelph Upset Win By THE CANADIAN PRESS Two top contenders in the In- tercounty Baseball League re- flected sadly toduy that there's a world of difference between a night off and an off night. Tront-running Kitchener Panth- ers and third-place Waterloo Ti- gers, locked in a tight four-team race for league leadership, figured to have an easy time last night against second-division opposition. But Panthers were on the short enc of a 7-5 count against seventh- place Guelph Maple Leafs and the Tigers' were edged 9-8 as last- place St. Thomas Eigins pushed over three runs in the ninth inning. Panthers stranded 14 base-run- ners-as southpaw Walt Jeffries won his second straight victory on the mound. Guelph*had a 6-0 lead at the end of two innings before the league-leaders knew what hit them. Kenny Yount drove in three of the tallies with a double and a single. Jeffries fieeded help from right- hander Johnny Clark in the seve enth inning and Clark ran inte trouble in the ninth, but got the side out with the bases loaded and one n in. At St. Thomas, Elgins, victors in only 10 of their 38 starts, spot- ted Waterlo. . 5-1 lead at the end of three innings, took a 6-5 lead in: the fifth, blew it in th« sixth and finally staged their photo-finish.. An error on Jimmy Trew set the "stage for the winning rally. Ray Reitnour's double and Don Butler's triple tied the score and Butler eventually came home on a long fly. by* Jimmy Caffrey. Augie Herchenratter paced Wat- erloo's attack with successive ho- mers in the second and third in- nings.
