Four straight games. That's how the Westerns won the West Toronto Senior League title, as they took the clincher at Mitlen Stadium on Sept, 29 under the lights.
Last year they floundered hopelessly out of the playoffs and in the cellar. This year they got off to a good stail, then their chances seemed dashed when they lost one of their key players, Idy Idenouye, for the balance of the season. Butjhey managed to make a three-way tie by winning the final game of the schedule, with May fairs and West Yorks.
In > sudden death playoff to#-�� \ / �i����T"--
determine the team drawing the bye, West Yorks were victorious. The other two then proceeded through a long series with the Westerns finally coming out on top.
Then, led by Manager Mike Maruno, they proceeded to batter the West Yorkers. With all their three pitchers getting into the act they took the first three; Ken Ohara, Ken Mitsui, and Aki Koyanagi each going the route and subduing the opposition, While the Westerns outplayed the West. Yorks both offensively and defensively.
Thursday night, Kenny Ohara came back to hurl a 5-hitter and though the occasional pitch sailed on him, he was never in hot water as he took care of the first batter in every inning. The young righthander, has come a long way from his erratic ways, last year, and has developed into a seasoned performer and we won't be a bit surprised if he's pestered with offers from other teams before next spring. .Though the Westerns themselves managed only five hits off the West York's ace, Goose Gos-tlin, who pitched brilliantly until the seventh when he couldn't locate the plate, none of their clouts were of the. bargain basement variety. Most timely was Koei Mitsui's hit into left field with the sacks saturated. The ball got by the outfielder and the sacks were de-saturated.
Though guilty of two errors, the Niseis, continued their sparkling fielding that warmed'.the chilled fans in the bleachers. The irifjeld functioned smoothly and fielded their positions well. .They can use a little .more chatter for they seem to koop it under their breath.
When centre fielder Joe_Koyanagi came to the bench in the sixth, ho was greeted with an ovation for' pulling a running one-hand act alongside the rails and making a potential homer into a put out.

. The T.Y.B. Men's Doubles Ti tie* was a nnexed by the team of Mush Fukumoto and; Yozy Yasui in a see-saw three set battle with the veteran and rookie combination of Frank Matsui and Shig Sora, the club's "A" and "B" Singles Champs, by scores of 2-6, 6-1, 7-5. Yasui's blazing drives to the baseline and Fukumoto's overhead smashes at the net was the deciding factor in the third set, when they finally figured out how to counteract Matsui's sizzling � placements and "Consolation Sora's" superb net strategy. The Mixed Doubles will be concluded next Sunday morning, if weather permits.
.MIXED /.BOWLING RECORDS
With two weeks play in the Toronto Major Mixed Bowling League, Jimmy Kitamura's team leads with 14 points, Moza Mat-sumoto 1.2, and Mas Isoshlma 10.
Men's average: Harry Inouye 236, Tosh Fujioka 230, Maw Mori 226; high triple, Maw Mori 741; high single, Mas Isoshima 304. �Ladies average: Ginger Tera-kita 212, Chickie Yanagisawa 204; : An\y Nagano 179; nigh triple, Ginger Terakita 710; high single, Chickie Yanagisawa 301.
And so the curtain comes down in the second'-year- of play for the- Westerns which has been capped with the league "pennant.
