(May 29)  The Broadview Buffaloes emerged as 2 to 1 winners in an exhibition tussle with the Northgate Yankees. Tied 1 - 1 in the seventh frame, Buffs' first sacker Sonny Harris belted a bases-empty homer to provide the winning margin.

(July 5)  In the midst of their hottest streak of the season, the Broadview Buffaloes nosed out the touring House of Alexander team 4 to 3 before a large crowd in Broadview. With few barnstorming teams visiting southern Saskatchewan, the Alexanders appeared to be the best of the lot.

(July 8)  With the paid attendance hitting near the 2,000 mark, the travelling House of Alexander squad, minus the ailing Grover Cleveland Alexander, thoroughly punished the Regina Senators 22 to 1 in a game which was mercifully halted after six innings.

(July 23)  The Weyburn Beavers handed the Notre Dame Hounds a 5 to 1 setback in an exhibition game in which the pitching of Art "Lefty" Walter and John Jones was the feature.

(August 2) The Broadview Buffaloes, monarchs of the Southern League, demonstrated they are a team to be reckoned with in any circle by staging a great ninth-inning rally for two runs to down the House of Alexander 5 to 4. It was the second time the Buffs have taken down the powerful touring outfit.

(August 3)  For the second time in as many nights, the Broadview Buffaloes came through with a late rally to snatch a victory. This time it was the San Antonio Missions who fell 3 to 2 to the Bisons.

(August 4)  Broadview's confident Buffaloes made it two in a row over the San Antonio Missions by trimming the tourists 7 to 2 .

(August 5)  The House of Alexander put a stop to the Broadview Buffaloes' long string of wins with a 5 to 2 triumph over the Southern Leaguers.

(August 6)  The Notre Dame Hounds were outclassed by the Broadview Buffaloes in an exhibition doubleheader played in Gravelbourg. Broadview carried off the first game 16 to 5 and the second one 13 to 7. Sonny Harris, Broadview's heavy-hitting first baseman, knocked out a couple of homers in the second game.
