was in attendance stouffvilles ace twirler harry barber robbed of a vic tory in the first contest after a sensational mound effort chalked up the nine inning win at wheatley he fired a stingy twohitter although he lacked his usual good control and walked nine men he breezed a total of 10 strikeout pitches past wheatley batsmen only in tive sixth inning did he run into any trouble wheatley notched their lone tally in the 6th and left two men stranded on base a combination of hits errors and walks vaulted the stouff ville score deep into the double figures wheatley pressed three pitchers into service in an effort to halt the cards vicious plate attack none fared too well they issued a total of 13 walks they were clubbed for 11 hits ross madill was one of the main cogs in stouffvilles

cardinal lineup in the eighth inning though he had little luck at the plate he pulled off a fine catch in left field on a drive by wheatleys ray brackenbery following the wheatley game the majority of

hershey he scored two goals as the hornets defeat ed the bears 21 he potted the winner in overtime bob had an equally fine oppor tunity to perform in pro base ball a letter of acceptance from the management of the brook lyn dodgers is one of his many treasured keepsakes bob se lected a sports career of hockey it was the big difference in i buffalo team his plans are un certain he expects to remain out of organized hockey for this winter at least he would favour catching a position with the whitby dunlops or perhaps lining up with the local clip pers he hopes to engage in the odd scrimmage session in the arena throughout the coming season at the present time he is anxious to learn all aspects of the insurance business he hopes to continue his work with the young stouffville
