Dealing GamewOf Bitterl Fought Series Scheduled

For This

The fifth and deciding game of the bitter best out of five series

between the Dominlons and Vic- torias for the right to meet Sum- merside All-Stars for the Island intermediate baseball title and a spot in the Maritime playdowns takes place this afternoon at 4:30 at the Victoria. Park diamond. Winners of the first two games Dominions looked like easy win- ner; until Victorias, cllmaxed a great uphill fight yesterday with their second win in a row to send the series to the limit and make the outcome very much in doubt. Today's game promises to be the tid-bit of the entire series. Domin- ions although beaten badly yester- day are still slight favorites to cop the title but what a battle it P1‘0m' ises to be. “F‘iddler" McDonald will likely go to the hill for the Victorias and although McDonald is a moundsman to be feared nevertheless Dominions will pin their faith on the ability of their pitching ace “srkinny" McKinnon: it would not be surprising if the game developed into a real hurl- er's battle all the way: both mounds1nen have loads of ability and never concede defeat so the encounter should be and likely
