Lads Finish Semi-Final Round First Final Tied Last night at Alexandra Park the Knights of Columbus Little Big League finished off the Series "B pie 13 round playoffs with the Indians defeating the Yankees, 7-2, to win the right to play against the Cardinals in the finals. The Tribe used that chance last pight in the second game of the evening as they fought the first of the finals with the Cards and after five full frames had to end the contest in a 6-6 deadlock. The Indians came to. the plate only four times the contest against the Yankees last night and during this time they drove in en- ough runs to edge the Yanks by five markers. A lone hit by Soro- chan in the first gave the winners their first two runs and the best trip to the plate, of the game, in the following inning, gave the win- nerg four big runs. the big in- nig the winners got three singles, by Murphy, Petrie and McGuire. A homer by Sorochan in the sixth gave the winners their last tally. During the first four frames the losers' efforts to score were very fragile as they got only four men on base but in the fifth an opening walk, followed by Boisson's homer, scored two Yankee runs.

OPENER ENDS IN TIE : In the second game last night which saw the finals get under- way, the Indians and Cardinals played five full frames and then were called, at the end of that time, with the score reading 6-6. The Indians were warmed up by the first contest and played heads - up ball in the second con- test. They opened up with two in the first and added two more in the next frame off two solid clouts. In the fourth two safe smashes sailed over the heads of the Car- dinal players and scored two more runs, making it six for the In- dians. The Cardinals got four hits in the first four innings good only for a lone fourth uping marker. But in the last of the fifth the chips were down, for the Cards were five runs behind. With this situa- tion before them the Cards came to the plate and with the aid of homers by Cover, R. Manarel, and Cole along with a single by Meag- her, the mates came up with five runs and a tie score.

Don Lewin won the semi-final and he did it so quick that many of the faithful didn't realize that it was all over. The end came after 19:31 minutes of action when Lew- in lashed out with elbow smashes and finished off his opponent, Tony Martinelli with an efficient body slam and knee-drop. GREAT TOGO ABSENT Before they bought their tickets, the fans were notified that The Great Togo would not be pres- brick and stone-chopping, board busting, etc., was of course post- poned but not one customer asked for his money - back. the judo chop and a few of Togo's other tricks in his repertorie but he certainly made a nasty and ef- ficient opponent. He teamed up with Tosh Togo to give Pat Flana- gan and Whipper Billy Watson a mighty stern argument.

That evened the bout and set the stage for the third and deciding all. WHIPPER FINISHES IT It was Whipper Watson himself who finished it off -- but not before a wild and hectic exchange of rough-and-rugged grappling. Flan- agan had a good try at it but he didn't quite have what it takes to stop Mighty Ursus and Tosh Togo when they got really working to- gether. Mighty Ursus And His Ring Partner Bow To Toronto Team In Third Fall looked to be over when decided that thé tactics used weren't according to the book. It was just after this that Wat- son suddenly lashed out at The Mighty Ursus and administered his famous 'claw hold". He stook the Mighty Ursus to his knees and finally made him cry "sur- render". Even after that, Ursus and Tosh Togo tried to resume hostilities, when Watson "unhook- ed" the claw but he promptly put it back on and this time, Ursus | pleaded for help and gladly agreed to behave, inned and the bout all As a matter of fact, Flanagan | Aje feree Bert Maxwell SPORTS ROUNDUP COOPERSTOWN, N.Y.
