6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, August 12, 1966 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H, Campbell Associate Sports Editor SOFTBALL PLAYOFF activity was disrupted 'ast night, by yesterday's welcome rain, one of the few times this summer that the weatherman has put a halt to the scheduled diamond action in this area, Bad Boy Appliances and Gale's Lumber were to have gone at it, in the se game of their "City Championship" semi-final series and this will likely be re-scheduled for Tuesday night. Scugog Cleaners go out to Brooklin tonight, to open the other semi- final bracket, against Brooklin Concretes. Scugog Cleaners will also be in action again tomorrow night, here at Alex- andra Park, The Saturday night attraction is an exhibition game between the Civil Service Softball League All-Stars and Scugog Cleaners, The Civil Service League is putting on this game, It's an opportunity for their recently-elected "All-Stars" to appear as a team and Scugogs were invited to provide the opposition -- which they no doubt will, Pro- ceeds of this exhibition game at Alexandra Park tomorrow night will go to the city's Centennial project, AJAX MERCHANTS were to have played their return game with Markham Aces last night but their diamond was a sea of mud, They've called the game for Saturday night, in Ajax, at eight o'clock, when the homesters will have to win to force a third game, in this OASA Inter, 'B' round, Markham won the first game on Tuesday, 8-6, In the OASA Inter, 'C' playoffs, Brooklin Concretes, having ousted Mark- ham Hawks in two close ones, 3-2 and 2-1, now move into their second round, playing in Millbrook on Monday night and back at home on Wednesday, This will mean five play- off gemes in 10 days, a busy program for the Concretes, TONIGHT, at Alexandra Park, there's an OASA playoff game, with Oshawa General Tire hosting Whitby Duponts, in the first game of their Intermediate - Industrial series, starting at eight o'clock, This is Whitby's first bid in the OASA "Industrial" playdowns and they are expected to give it a good try, although they'll find the General Tire team probably has an edge in experience and all-round power. Return game is back in Whitby's Centennial Park, on Sunday evening, eight o'clock .. . OASA action on Satur- day afternoon sees Scarborough visiting Oshawa Harman Park, for their first game, It's at Harman Park, 2:30 o'clock, with the return game at Heron Park, in Scar- borough, on Monday evening ... Port Perry Pee Wees open thelr OASA round with Zion, tomorrow in Port Perry. LACROSSE FANS who are impatient for their favorite action, should travel out to Brooklin this evening, to watch the second game of the OLA Senior 'A' semi-finals, between the Redmen and Brampton Excelsiors, It took a couple of overtime periods for Brooklin to eke out a win, in the series opener and tonight's action promises to be hectic, It's the only activity this week, around these parts, Green Gaels were willing to open their series with Toronto tonight and then play Saturday and Monday here but obviously, the Township PCO's wanted no part of any more action this week, after their series with Long Branch, PCO's wouldn't even play Saturday night, at home, and the OLA went along with them apparently, Now the series has been order- ed to start, here in Oshawa, on Monday night and it's the first of a crazy, mad rush, They play Monday here, Tues- day there, back here Wednesday, in Toronto Township on Friday and if the series is still allve, they'll play it out on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of the following week, Hastings and Mimico are opening their series tonight, in Mimico. The OLA was money-conscious in declining to open the series here in Oshawa tonight -- they didn't want to "buck" the attendance at Brooklin's home game with Brampton, But when they wouldn't play the game in To- ronto Township, we can only figure that either the CRO's didn't want to play or the OLA officers wanted to see the game in Brooklin themselves -- or both? OSHAWA THISTLES open their Ontario Cup final series, in London, tomorrow evening, against the London Marconi- Italia Club, Dave Cochrane, one of the stars of the London club, scored with four minutes left in the game, to give Marconi-Italia a 3-2 win over St, Catharines Heidelberg last Saturday, in their sudden-death, semi-final clash, while Osh- awa Modern Grill Thistles were eliminating Kingston here at the Stadium, The Ontario Cup final is a two-game affair, total goals to decide it. The first one in London Saturday, is at the CNRA Grounds and called for six o'clock, Next Saturday, the return game will be at the Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium, at 7:00 p.m. The 'word' is that this year's edition of the London Marconi-Italia Club is a 'very hot team" indeed ... HERE AT HOME, tomorrow night, the Oshawa soccer teams will start their annual Lancaster Cup play, with Malta United meeting Italia at 6:00 p.m. and Ukrainia playing Local 222, at 8:00 p.m, Both games, at Kinsmen .
