It was too nice a day to stay inside , . . you understand. Anyhow, Dick Brimmell gives note that the Oshawa Cricket Club will be practic- ing down at their beautiful eview Park site in about two weeks time. The club, which last year was reckoned on paper to be one of the strongest, just didn't get moving... till late. This' season with a much larg- er membership and some prac- tice nets, the eleven is expect- ed to put on by far it's best showing. By the by, those practice nets were obtained through the diligent work of one of the world's better known cricket stars, Ken Trestrail of the West Indies team. Al Haley who captained the team last season is again back in that honored post, which makes the team look like an aggregation to watch. We've an invitation down to watch 'em... how about you?

The huge man who lumbered mightily getting down to first, but who hit ball so hard that it usually didn't matter, never made anyihing but friends in his long, quiet stay In the majors. He was the fellow who lent money to teammates just before payday and who caddied for them when they golfed, Much has and will be written about the incident in the 1939 world series when a thundering herd of New York Yankees ran over and trampled Lom at home plate. Not so well known is the fact that not one of the big man's Cincinnati teammates mentioned it to him in the clubhouse after the game (we Rustralian Racehorse Eams Disqualification SYDNEY, Australia (Reules)-- Tarien, which won Saturday's Dor- caster Handicap, was disqualified Wednesday because of doping.

There were many things that set Big Lom apart and made him one of the game's more colorful fig- ures, He was the only successful big leaguer we ever heard of who gripped his bat with an interlock- ing grip, the same as golfers do, with his little and first fingers en- twined. a He got tremendous power with it, and was especially prone to hit blinding drives through the centre of the diamond, either right at or just past the pitcher.

Of the 142 xperis voting, 105 selected the gers to become the first National League cham- {pions to repeat since the 1943 St. | Louis Cardinals successfully de- fended their title in '44. While their following was not as great, the Yankees still drew 87 first place votes to capture their fifth consec- utive American League flag. Run- ner-up Cleveland was named on 48 first-place ballots. Philadelphia's Phillies edged out New York Giants for second place in the National although they re- ceived only 14 first-place votes to 18 for the Giants. Strong second- place backing enabled the Phils to pile up 886 points to New York's | 873.
