fie 2 I See RC THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, July 15, 1968 By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR verything From Soup To Nuts 'SPORTS NEWS is both plentiful and varied these days, 'gnd Wednesday provided a peak of activity around these ; in particular, Tony's scored a 4-3 victory over Randall Metals, last night at Alexandra Park, and it was just bout the best Beaches Major Fastball League game that has been played in Oshawa this summer, It was one of ' his fourth victory of the season, Frank Marshall, his rival, wasn't quive as sharp but he didn't give too away either, His own two-run homer to put his team in front 3-2, shortly after Tony's catcher Bob Booth had slammed a two-run homer to put Oshawa in front 2-1, were two of the big hitting thrills of the game, In addition to.the long drives, which the fans love to see, they were also treatec to some spectacular fielding. Neil, at shortstop for Randall Roy's, pulled off three sensational pick-ups, on scorching grounders and turned all of them into a putpout, with his quick thinking and accurate throws. "Squib" Elliott made a great one-handcd running catch, in right field, and centre-fielder, Bob Young, ran "a mile" to haul in another drive that was headed for the dark And to finish it off, Tommy O'Cunnor's closing double-play was a honey. In the Juvenile game that preceded the Tony's game, People's Clothing nosed out Genosha Aces, the two snappy teams reeling off their complete 9-inning tussle in just a few min- utes over the one-hour mark The Juveniles have proven that their calibre of ball in the curtain-raiser, is a real asset to the attraction. JOE CAMPBELL, from Florida, the burly blond who sports colorful clothing and usually a big, fat cigar, boomed his way around the Mississaugua golf course yesterday in a 4-under-par 66, to take the first-day lead in the Canadian Open. Only one stroke behind, came Mason Rudolph and then, still another stroke or even two behind, but still under par, were such performers as Australia's Bruce Devlin; Canada's Al Johnston, who won The Millar last week; Billy Casper, Jack Nicklaus, Kel Nagle, Charlie Sifford and others. Arnold Palmer, Tony Lema, Bobby Nichols and George Knudson, were among those 17 golfers who matched par. There were 17 who had better than par, and then they fol- lowed, by the dozens, with scores just slightly over the "standard possible". Today is cut-off day and they'll separate the men from the boys, as they say in sporting circles -- but judging from that impressive list of 'greats' compet- ing -- there'll be quite a few who are considered real "men" in the golfing world, who will be sidelined by the limit total. Quite a few Oshawa golf enthusiasts were there to watch the action yesterday, more are going this afternoon and no doubt, locals will help swell the gallery on Saturday, when the climax is reached, Elsewhere in golf activity, Gail Harvey continued yesterday to stay very much in the run- ning for the Ontario Ladies' golf crown, at Kingston, She defeated Betty Stanhope Cole yesterday and her room- mate Sue Hilton, of London, also advanced to the semi- finals, which are today. BUFFALO BOILING! Baseball fans, as well as all interested, such as stadium folk, promoters, etc. of Buffalo, are sizzling today. One week before N.Y. Mets were to play their Buffalo Bisons, in a big charity exhibition game, with Warren Spahn scheduled to pitch with Yogi Berra as his battery-mate -- Mets have put Spahn on waivers. The big attraction has been harpooned -- and the Buffalo folk are not very happy, to say the least!
