T251 TCJANADI‘AN'N‘Aâ€"TIO'NKL The final series to decide a cham- pion in the Simcoe County Softball League was started last Thursday evening when Richmond Hill jour- neyed to Barrie for the first game. The result was not so favourable to Richmond Hill as Harry Couse let the Hill crowd dOwn with three scat- tcred hits and no ruis while his teammates hammered the offerings of big Bob Miller for a total of nine runs. On Tuesday night of this Barrie made the staniing in the series 2 to 0 in their favor when Harry Couse again handcuffed the Hill boys and pitched a no-hit game for his club. This is the only no-hit game registered in the league this year and as far as we know ‘any previous year. Richmond Hill were able to get only one man on. base that through an error to the first baseman. Barrie were able to get four runs off Ted Bennett to reg- istcr tlicir second straight shut-out in the final series. The two teams hook up at Barrie tonight in what may be the final and deciding game of the series (we hope not). If Barri-e wins they will take the cup and the season will he ova“, but should the Hill win the fourth game will be played in Rich- mond Hill on Tuesday night of next week. The winners of the lucky draw which was made at Tuesday night's game are: lst, H. Brown; 2nd, W. C. Savage; 3rd, Leonard Lunau, all of Richmond Hill. FEDER H. RI'RFAI' INVESTIGATION week OF The FBI.
