In one of the finest exhibitions of softball seen here this year Rich- mond Hill Softball team ended the Long drawn out series with Barrie- by winning from the northern town here Tuesday night by a score of 2-1. With the series tied and the former game which was won by Richmond Hill thrown out on a pro- test there was keen interest among the ball fans of the district and a large crowd was on hand for the encounter. Owing to harvest conditions this request cannot be urged too strong- 1y. For the information of the public names of all deputy registrars have been publishedand posted through- out the Riding. We extend congratulations to Manager Charlie Ryan and his local White Rose crew on winning the first round of the play-off series, and the best wishes of the fans fol- low them as they take on Newmar- ket Redmen in the next round for the Simcoe County Softball Associa- tion Championship. The first game is with Newmarket at the Richmond Hill Park Friday night at 7.15. A record crowd should be on hand. for this game, and the fans are always sure of their money’s worth when the Hill and Newmarket meet. Barrie opened the. scoring when Marshall got a run in the first inn- ing, but it proved their first and their last. Richmond Hill got their first counter in the fourth when Bennett scored and the winning run in the fifth when Yonge scored on two sacrifices and a hit.
