O. A. A. playoffs. Ludknow turned the tables on the Wing - u ham.nine in the second game by beating them 7-6. This evened the series tip at one game each. We understand that this, game was played under protest by the Wingham team, because of a claim that the Lucknow pitcher’s1 “descriptiprifL.frp.m3.heLWingh ain. mound was not a proper pitcher’s box. Officialdom has ruled that the mound will have to.be re moved. - In , Friday’s , game, Lucknow took /an early first inning 3-0 lead on 3 consecutive singles by Jack Chin, Roy Stanley and Ken MacNay. Lucknow coasted along with this handy margin until the 5th inning when Wingham net ted one ruri to make the score 3-1 at the end of six innings*. Then came a “slamming seventh” with no less than nine of. the total 13 runs being scored. Wi.ng- ham scored five runs in their half and ■ took, a 6*3 lead With Lucknow going into their half of the seventh., LuckhoW started their 47run rally by. a triple by Jack Chin Who' was.lead-off man. in the 7th._ Following, this, two -doubles—by--Roy—Stanley ;andJ-Ai Baker “and a single by Charlie Chin, along with two Wingham errors,’ gave Lucknow a 7-6 edge Which they held.

Murdie & Son ’PHONE 10, LUCKNOWI —1 According to Wingham, their management was. in touch , with Frank Leaver, secretary of the. O.A,S A. who gave orders to ■have the Lucknow pitcher’s mound removed. The question here is, how. come Mr. Feaver can give orders to remove a ./‘so- called mound” that he has never seen or knows anything about— other than from its telephone angle. ’ It seems that the Wingham team must have been saving their “after-game cheer” for the Re union celebrations. All Was quiet on the Wingham bench after the gaine save one lone cheer, which incidentally didn’t com.e from a native Winghamite at all. Shades of Guy Sparrow are. to be seem in the Wingham pitcher, Keith Lancaster, who follows, the pitching style and characteristic antics of the Michigan hurler to perfection. /, ■.'
