1Q THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, Mey 28, 1903 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' --™ Mroczeck Hits TERRY KELLY, the human dynamo and atomic-type energy force of the Oshawa Civic Auditorium Committee, delivered a passionate and rousing stimulation to about 300 canvassers, last night at St. Gregory's Auditorium and if the jet-propelled take-off the campaign received proves insuffi- cient to reach the desired objective -- then in our opinion, the citizens of this city are lacking in community pride. Cer- tainly the splendid progress made, by a committee which has weathered disappointments and setbacks in the past five ' ears and still has come up with the impetus with which \ ibis campaign has been launched, should be both a challenge 'and inspiration to all. The early generous donations by all the members of the committee, by Don Jackson, The Get- Together Club, etc., these already have set. an example that should be a target for many and a guidepost for all. In our opinion, Terry Kelly's heart-to-heart talk to the canvass- ers was an inspiration, although we must take exception to some mild criticism voiced in the early remarks, relative to other recreational facilities. True, the CRA building on Gibb street may be termed "a fire trap" but we have also sidewalks and 'roadway traps, all relative to financial status. Maybe, as is often the case with arenas, we don't get a new one until the old one burns down but the CRA building has given and is still providing, many thousands of happy re- ° creational hours. And Kinsmen Stadium, while far from completely adequate for soccer or football, is still one of the best-lighted, closed "parks" in the vince. It is unfor- tunate that it was basically designed baseball -- but in /\those days, when it was built, soccer and football were just at"'dead" in this city as major baseball is now. But enough of this\being ready to stick up for what at least we do have -- let's gét\on with the drive for something we haven't got and surely need, a civic auditorium. The committee's excellent slogan should be the watchword, password, byword and the message to make history -- "'Let's Build It Ourselves -- For Ourselves!" ' x x x x BRIGHT' BITS: -- If the weatherman changes his tune, which at the moment of writing, appears unlikely, there'll be another banner softball doubleheader at Al dra Park this evening, starting at 6:30 o'clock, while the City and District Northern Division softball teams will be in action, at Radio Park and out at Port Perry... . TOMORROW NIGHT, the 7-Up Shopsy's of Toronto will be here for a Beaches League game. Oshawa Tony's blanked them 7-0 last night in Toronto and did the job on some fine pitching by Andy Anderson, plus good stick-work by the team, especially Nick Mrozeck, to earn their first win of the schedule. . . . MAYOR Charlotte Whitton of Ottawa has criticized an offer by Ottawa Rough Riders to help pay for a new amateur sports stadium (the Riders have Lansdowne Park all to themselves) because, says Her Worship, the city still will have to bear the brunt of the cost... . TORONTO LEAFS dropped a 4-3 decision to Buffalo Bisons last night. . ... BILL EZINICKI, who wanted to come to Oshawa last Saturday' in the worst way, to take part in the Auditorium parade, along with Stan Leonard of Vancouver and Al Balding, of Toronto, qualified in the U.S. open golf championship divisional tournament, yesterday. Bill, who competed at Auburndale, Mass., tied for third, with a 148 score. Getting ready to compete in this important event (golf is his business now) was the only- thing that prevented the popular former Oshawa General and NHL star, from being here last Saturday. BASEBALL SCORES, STANDINGS extended hitting slump for over, a year, looked like the "'Nicky"' of old, The leftfielder rege out three line-drive hits, goo Veteran Nick Mroczeck and pitcher Andy Anderson com- bined offensive and pitching effectively, to give Oshawa Tony's a 7-0 victory over 7-Up - for three runs batted in, off | BASEBALL losing pitcher Jimmie Sault. Oshawa Tony's scored two runs in the 2nd and five more in the 7th, to win going away as Shopsys never threatened, losing their second-straight. In the 2nd, Nick Mroczeck singled, as did Danny Tureski and both scored on a walk and a costly 7-Up - Shopsy error. In the 7th, which saw five runs cross the plate, once again Nick Mroczeck led the way. "Nicky" opened with a single, followed by Bobby _ Booth's single and '"'Sonny" Hill's two- bagger, scoring two runs. Dan Tureski followed with a walk, Shopsy, last' night at Kew Gardens, ; Victory for Tony's was their first, after two successive set- backs in the Beaches Major Fastball League. Tony's, who have been in the midst of a. big player shake-up, once again used unfamiliar faces last night. os Inserted in the line-up were "Red" Gilbert, from Toronto, at third base, replacing Ronnie Simcoe,' who quit the club late last week; 'Sonny' Hill, in centre field, replacing Joe Pion- tek and "Danny" Tureski, tak- ing over Freddie Etcher's post And Andy Anderson Hurls Tonys To 7-0 Shutout "Andy" Anderson was safe on another error to load the bases. "Red" Gilbert walked, to force in another tally. Then Jack MacDermaid smacked out a clutch single, plating two more runs.

Scugog Girls Win Opener Over Brokers The Oshawa Scugog Cleaners Junior Girls Softball Club score dan impressive 6-0 shut- out over Thomson Brokers, in the opening game of the East Junior Ladies' Softball "eague, here at Alexandra Park last night. Sandra Paradise pitched the shutout for the Scugogs, a bril- liant one-hit effort. She had a no-hit, no-run game going, with two out in the final 7th inning when Maureen Harris clipped a single, to break the string. Barbara Peuty, son's, was also in good form. She gave up only four hits but had two bad frames, Marilyn Schultz was safe on an error with one out, in the 4th. Para- dise followed with a single, so did Mary Clough. Connie Lucas grounded and Paradise was nipped at the plate but Nancy Malloy singled to score two of her mates, making it 3-0.
