The other oeéupant of the car, Robt. T. Barton, formerly a judgze in Wisconsin, ‘also died from injuries received. â€" Thére will be deep regret in the North at the tragic accident, Mr. Simpson ‘being very popular hore from many visits paid the North*in years past. The goal sgemed to jolt the Lake Shore club into action and in less than a minute they scared twice to take the lead aga‘n on total scorz, Syme broke through all alone to make a parfeéct. job of the first counter and passedâ€"to Manuel for the sscond. He scored: again with thrse minutes to go when Bamses and Baxtsr got into a mixup.. Barnes the ball and passed it‘ back' to Paxter, expecting that he would kick clear. Syme swooped in from nowhere and pouneed on the ball for a soft goal. After Lake Shore reâ€" gained the lead, Dome seemed to fade from the picture entirely and while they wore still battling when the final whistle blew, Lake Shore were taking no chances of having their lead overtaken.

Macs Meet Lake Shore in League Football Playâ€"off "While the 1938 series will be a failure financially it gives the asociaâ€" tion executive an opportunity to. spe baseball conditions first hand in the north country and the trip here is therefore useful from that stgndpamt We â€"hope toâ€"enlargeâ€"our territory next: year so as to have an all-northem group and eventually playoff with the Ontario Baseball Association for the: provincial championship. â€" They are anxious to play this year but it looks. as though weather conditions will notf permit," said Mr. OQO‘Meara. "Both Secretary J. Hamilton Lowray: and myself have enjoyed our stay. in Kirkland Lake, which looks like a secâ€" tion of the Ottawa Valley with so many: former residents of the Capital and district in residence here. We have been particularly impressed by the hosâ€", pitality and courtesy shown to us by. the officials of the Lake Shore and . Wrightâ€"Hargzreaves; Mines and their athletic officials," he concluded. "The E.O.B.A. constitution is going t <‘be enforced to the limit in future years so that there will be no baseball finals played in unseasonable weather," Mr. O‘Meara declared. "The | third week of September is too late for base ball in the north country and the presâ€" ent seriess was a financial flop with the Smith‘s Falls club taking it on the chin because of the delay in completing the Temiskaming league schedule. "At the next annual meeting of the E.O.B.A. in Ottawa next April a hard and fast rule will be inserted in the elub constitution which will guarantes all clubs pratection on this point and there will have to he a revision of the split in gate receipts so that part of: the visiting team‘s exponses will be guaranteed, so as to idemnify. them against total loss as in the present inâ€" stance," said the president. "The constitution calls for all leagues to have a winner declared by August 31 and unless it is adhered to the sucâ€" cess of the E.O.B.A. finals cannot be guaranteed. It costs too much money to bring a team north to have to deâ€" pend on weather conditions. If the baseball fans are going ts be given aA bneak in the north country as well as in the east they should not be ex< pected to look at the finals under unâ€" favourable conditions." he continued. Eddic O‘Mecara, of Ottawa. President of the E.O.B.A. served official warning last week in Kirkland Lake during the Lake Shoreâ€"Imith‘s Falls finals mt in future Temiskaming. League . will have to declare a winner not later than August 31 if they hope: to get eastern teams to come north for chamâ€" pilonship playâ€"offs. "Regardless of any contrary opinâ€" ion, if the point I adoveated along this line last year had been adoapted there would have been no fiasco in 1937 and the visiting club this> year wiuld have been protected," he declarâ€" Temiskaming League Will Have to Declare Winner Not Later Than August 31, or Rastern Clubs Will Refuse ‘(l)‘oMCme North For Champlml\lp Series, Says Eddie ‘Meara.
