OXBOW TOURNAMENT

(July 17)    Sherwood, N.D., and Wapella, SK, split top prize money at the Oxbow Tournament after battling to a scoreless tie in the final game called because of darkness. 

In what a dispatch to the Winnipeg Free Press called "Probably the greatest baseball tournament that has ever been held in this part of Saskatchewan" some 3,000 spectators were on hand to witness six teams, from Saskatchewan and North Dakota, vying for $500 in prize money. The tourney featured Wapella and Weyburn, Saskatchewan, and Kenmare, Sherwood, Flaxton and Columbus from North Dakota. A seventh team, Grenfell, Saskatchewan, was forced to withdraw. The North Dakota teams had tremendous followings with Sherwood bringing supporters in about fifty cars to the tourney.

Sherwood scored an easy first victory, 13-1 over Columbus and Weyburn crushed Flaxton 9-0. Wapella jumped into a big lead in its game sending Kenmare starter Grant to the showers in the first inning and reliever McKenzie to the bench in the third and holding a 12-0 advantage after five innings. The Americans battled back with three runs in the sixth and 8 more in the seventh to make a game of it amid wild excitement. The Canadians prevailed 13-11.

Weyburn, with Casey Moroschan on the hill had the misfortune to to lineup against Wapella in a semi-final but made it close, losing 6-5.  Sherwood drew a bye.

After all the runs in the preliminaries, the title game turned into a gem of a pitcher's duel with former major leaguer Charlie Boardman for Sherwood (who had fanned 17 in seven innings in a recent match against Flaxton) and Rumple for Wapella.  After seven tense innings neither team could push a run across and darkness forced a halt to the action.  The teams divided first and second money with an even $200 for each team.

The Mirror shutout set the stage for the final as Mirror took on host Red Deer in a thrilling match with the only team that had beaten Mirror more than once this season.

The sporting element was in evidence and the bets were plenty, even as high as $500 being placed ... Those who had confidence in the Mirror team were justified although the Red Deer fans were not disappointed in the playing of their favorites. The game started with Turner, Mirror's standby in the box, and with A. Ray behind the bat. As a game the spectators could not wish for anything better as one, two, three and then one after another of the innings went by with neither side getting a man farther than third base. When the ninth inning came along and no score on either side the fans were wild during Mirror's turn at bat. (Edmonton Bulletin, July 25, 1924)

With one out in the final frame for Mirror, Busby reached with a single and proceed to steal second. After Bill Walker fanned as a pinch-hitter Len Murray blooped a Texas Leaguer in front of Nelson in left field and by the time Nelson retrieved the ball Busby had scampered home with the winning run. Cliff Turner held Red Deer in check in the bottom of the final frame and Mirror escaped with a 1-0 victory to take top money in the tournament. Turner held Red Deer to five hits, three by third baseman McLaren, fanned nine with no free passes. Osterland also had an outstanding game with a six-hitter, 11 strikeouts and one walk.  The game drew a crowd of 1,500.

EDMONTON KING OF THE BUSHERS TOURNAMENT

(July 29)   In a item promoting the tournament, the Edmonton Bulletin made a comparison between Walter Johnson and Tiny Turner :

It is just seventeen years ago this summer that the immortal Walter Johnson of the Washington American League team was burning up the bushes down in Idaho for the little tank town of Weiser. He was striking out from ten to twenty-four men every time he pitched, and shutting teams out right and left at libitum. Every league ball team in the northwest was trying to sign him up, including the Edmonton team of the Western Canada League, but Cliff Blankenship, scouting for Washington, came along, secured his signature to a contract, and carried him back to the capitol of the United States, where he immediately made good.

As far as records in the bushes go there is a pitcher down at Mirror, Alberta, who is attracting wide notice this year by the same brand of phenomenal twirling. His name is C. C. Turner, and his wonderful feats on the hill among the semi-pro teams of Alberta have paralleled the achievements of Walter Johnson seventeen years ago. (Edmonton Bulletin, July 29, 1924)

Rain halted the opening game of the Busher's Tournament at Diamond Park in Edmonton after just two innings had been played between Tofield and the Edmonton Outlaws. The contest started out to be a pitchers' duel between Norman Dodge and Oklahoma Oslund

(August 1)  Edmonton Outlaws received four-hit shutout pitching by Norman Dodge and a 12-hit offense in downing Tofield 7-0 to kick off the King of the Bushers Tournament at Diamond Park.  Third baseman Jack Starky led the winners with a triple and two singles. Roy Forman also had three hits and Dodge helped his own cause with a pair of singles, one driving in three runs in the seventh inning. He also scored twice. Dodge fanned eight and walked one while losing hurler Oklahoma Oslund rang up 15 strikeouts.

(August 4)  Cliff Turner fired yet another shutout as Mirror defeated Lamont 3-0 to advance to the final of the Bushers Tournament. The right-hander fanned 16 and walked two. Buck Lapp's third inning homer , one of three hits for the third sacker, with a man aboard proved to be the winning blow. Mirror added an insurance run in the seventh.

Turner (W) and A.Ray

In a sensational comeback from a 4-0 deficit, Mirror scored four times in the ninth inning to down Edmonton Outlaws 7-4 and take top money in the King of the Bushers Tournament. Cliff Turner, who fired a shutout in the afternoon game, pitched one-hit ball with six strikeouts in four relief innings to register his second win of the day. Edmonton jumped into the lead with two runs in the second and another pair in the fifth. Mirror got one back in the sixth and edged closer with two in the seventh. In the ninth, Don Wagner got a hit to centre field and Len Murray was hit by a pitch. Jimmy Cairns dropped one into left field to load the bases and the tying and winning runs came home on Edmonton miscues. Busby dumped one down to Jack Starky at third who made a wild throw to Brady at the plate and Wagner scored to knot the count. As Brady recovered the ball, his throw to pitcher Joie was well off the mark sailing into the right garden as Murray and Cairns romped home.

(August 8)  C.C. "Tiny" Turner of Mirror has been voted King of the Bushers for his performance in the Bushers Tournament at Edmonton.  Thirty experts were selected to make the choice and Turner was nearly everyone's first pick.

(August 19)   In a competition billed as the Little World Series, Tiny Turner added another shutout to his impressive list Tuesday as Mirror blanked Edmonton Outlaws 3-0 in the opening game of the best-of-seven series at Diamond Park.

(August 20)   Pete Ryan's eighth inning double scored Busby with the winning run Wednesday as Mirror took a 2-0 game lead in the best-of-seven Little World Series at Diamond Park with a 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Outlaws..  Busby had reached with a single and stole second.  Bill Walker, while "never wilder in my life than in this game" walked five, allowed six hits and fanned seven in the route going performance.  Norman Dodge, who surrendered six hits with no free passes took the tough loss.  Outlaws were first on the scoreboard getting a run in the third inning. Syd Hamilton's double brought in Dodge who had cracked one to right field.  Mirror took the lead in the sixth inning with a two-out rally. Ryan singled to centre and came home on a pair of errors with Frenchy Adams reaching first. Buck Lapp smacked one down the third base line chasing Adams all the way to third. Len Murray then dumped one toward third and the second run scored before Johnson could make the play. Edmonton knotted the count with a run in the seventh.

Dodge (L) and Scott

The following day, Umpire McLellan issued a statement saying the Wednesday game had been counted as a 3-3 tie after allowing an fifth inning run that was not generally considered to have counted at the time. In the fifth inning, Edmonton had the bases loaded with one out and Alva Sibbett at third.  Syd Hamilton launched a long fly to right field for the second out and outfielder Jim Cairns threw the ball back in to first base as McLaren, who had walked, took off for second where he was caught by Pete Ryan's throw to Frenchy Adams. What hadn't registered at the time was that, after tagging up, Sibbett had crossed the plate before the third out. Even the Mirror manager, Harry Croxton, agreed that the run should have counted.

(August 21)    Mirror scored in the bottom of the ninth inning Thursday night to salvage a 2-2 tie with Edmonton Outlaws in the third game of their Little World Series.  Trailing 2-1 after Edmonton plated a run in the top of the ninth, Jimmy Cairns led off with a triple and came home on Osterland's squeeze bunt.  The Outlaws got a gift run in the top of the frame as Chuck Henderson made it all the way to third as his hit was fumbled in left centre field and he romped home on a wild pitch. Mirror had taken the lead in the third on Busby's sacrifice fly scoring Len Murray. Outlaws came right back in the fourth with Henderson scoring on Jack Forman's three-bagger. Again, the fans witnessed outstanding pitching. Osterland tossed a five-hitter and fanned seven for Mirror and Oslund allowed six hits and fanned 13.

(August 22)   Cliff "Tiny" Turner fired another gem Friday holding Edmonton to two hits, both in the first inning, and Harry Croxton's Miracle Men for MIrror racked up another shutout, 3-0, to take a 2-0 game lead in their best-of-seven series. The right-hander whiffed 11 and walked one. John Starky yielded just three hits, none of the first seven frames, in taking the loss.  Mirror broke a scoreless tie with a run in the seventh. An throwing error on Pete Ryan's grounder to second was key to the first and winning run. He scored on a fielder's choice.

Starky (L) and Scott

(August 24)   Edmonton Outlaws received superb, two-hit shutout pitching by Norman Dodge and Happy Oslund to take both games of Saturday's double-header, 8-0 and 6-0 to tied the series with each team with two wins and a pair of ties. Dodge also paced Edmonton's 16-hit attack in the opening game punching out four hits. Jack Forman smashed a homer and two singles and Alva Sibbett added three singles. Dodge added a double and single as a left fielder in the second game and Forman poked a pair of hits as did Sibbett, Syd Hamilton and Laurie ScottOslund fanned 11 in the evening game.

(August 25)  With John Starky pitching winning ball, the Edmonton Outlaws won their third straight game in the Little World Series downing Mirror 5 to 3 at Diamond Park.  Roy Forman was the game's hitting star coming through with triples on successive trips to the plate, each time with a runner aboard. The next time the right fielder cracked out a long single to push Chuck Henderson to third. A ten hit offensive came against Tiny Turner, Mirror's star hurler, author of numerous shutout efforts.  Turner fanned 13 and walked one. Mirror managed just five hits off Starky who had just four strike outs.

(August 27)   The Little World Series terminated Wednesday afternoon when Mirror defeated the Outlaws 4-1. The teams each won three and tied two. Series promoted Deacon White decided to end the series feeling the fans had tired of watching just the two teams in action.  Osterland, the pride of Red Deer, was in the box for Mirror and held the Outlaws to seven hits. Happy Oslund took the loss. Mirror took the lead with a run in the top of the first inning and were never headed.  Busby singled, advanced on a walk to Pete Ryan and scooted home as Lord smashed a long single to centre field. They added a singleton in the third on consecutive hits by Frenchy Adams, Albert Ray and Buck Lapp. Syd Hamilton knocked in Edmonton's lone run in the fourth stanza. The final two runs for Mirror came in the ninth helped by singles from Cliff Turner and Frenchy Adams and a two-bagger by Buck LappAdams and Lapp each had three hits.

(September 10)  Cliff Turner, star hurler of the Mirror baseball team from Northern Alberta, has been offered and has signed a contract with the Detroit Tigers. He is to report next spring. Turner was recently selected as the top player in a King of the Bushers Tournament at Edmonton.

[Turner, just 22, had an impressive 1925 pro season with a 16-8 record in 23 games with Paris of the East Texas League and a 1-1 mark in three games with Okmulgee Drillers of the Western Association.  However, after more than 200 innings, Turner left for home early feeling ill, it seemed, from the Texas weather.  His condition became serious and in late September he was taken from his home in Mountain Park, Alberta, to hospital in Edmonton where he was diagnosed with typhoid fever. He died the following day.]


WAPELLA - BRANDON

(July 24) In exhibition action, Wapella (population about 400), in winding up a hugely successful season, took on the powerful Brandon (population about 15,000) Greys in a double-header Thursday and walked way with victories in both games, 6-1 and 3-0.
