In the Cardinal organization's tryouts jn the spring of 1941, Mu- sial was turned down by all but Ollie Vanek, pilot of the Spring- field, Mo., club of the Western Association. IMPRESSIVE DEBUT. He hit a home run his first time at bat, and after 87 games his batting average was' .379. By then Rochester "needed him." Stan eas- ily made the big jump to the In- ternational League, again hit a homer his first time at bat and averaged .326 in 54 games, Manager Bill Southworth's s were a neck-and- neck race with Brooklyn in 1941, and Musial was brought in hur- riedly. He made two hits in.his debut against Boston, his double driving in two runs [n a 82 vic tory. Then he made four hits in a game against 'the Cubs. He fin. ished with a gaudy .426 average 12 games. Stan had agtually three leagues in one season. The rest is history. He batted 315 to become the rookie of the year in 1942; won the batting championship with .357 and was honored as the National League's most valuable player in 1943; and was runner-up to Dixie Walker with 347 in 1944 before joining the navy in 1945. Musial was better than ever upon his return, He captured five more batting titles in the next eight years, received two- more most- valuable-player awards, and at the end of the 1953 season had a life- time .345 batting average.

BIG SELLING JOB The games organizing committee has done a powerful selling job. Not content to merely invite coun- tries, they have appealed to na- tional pride in an effort to draw the best athletes available. Part of the selling job was the promise of royal treatment for all athletes on promise that officials are to keep, Canada, as host nation, naturally leads the field with 221 team members including 29 officials, England comes next with 127 team members followed by Aus- tralia with 75, New Zealand with 67, and South Africa with 64. Bar- bados will have the smallest rep- ntation with two entries. lerk said the list of 796 team members might shrink slightly be- fore the opening ceremonies. Some countries have reserved positions in the entry lists but are still en- gaged In raising necessary funds. tatistics indicate track and field is still most popular with 22 of 25 countries taking part. Weight- lifting has attracted 14 nations to take second spot in team choices. 's team is broken down this way: Track and field, 60 men and 15 women; 10 boxers; 10 cye- lists; fencing, 12 men and two women; seven bowlers, swimmers and divers, 30 and 10 women: seven weigh ; and eight Wildcats Triumph. Over Trimbles 11-10 Oshawa Juvenile Wildcats de- feated Trimble Construction Juniors 11-10 in a Lakeside Ladies Softball Association game, played last night at Bathe Park. Trimbles broke in front with the first run of the game, in the open- ing frame and added three more in the second on two hits, one a double by McEachern. They punch- ed home four more on three hits and a couple of errors, in the bottom of the fourth, to lead 8-0 and even when Wildcats got four runs on two walks, a nerror and two hits, including Honeyman's triple, in the bottom of the fourth. Trimbles came right back with two runs in the fifth to lead 10-4. How- ever, they were helpless on the attack from that point. Meanwhile, Wildcats got one in the fifth, added three in the sixth and one in the 7th, helped by err- ors all down the line. Going into the last of the 9th, the score was 10-9 for Trimbles and they got the first batter out, then Trimble was safe on an error, Peel sing. led, a choice play missed and Honeyman singled to score two of her mates and win the game.

In two years in the big-time bus- iness of high-powered car racing. Hawthorn has won a sackful of medals, crashed thrice and gained a spot in the world-famous Ferrari racing team operated by the Ital- ian motor mmanufactirels, The controversy arise from the fact the six-foot 25-year-old hasn't served his two-year streth of mil itary training. A questioner in Par- liament was told by a government 'spokesman recently that Hawthorn would be called up "very rapidly indeed' if and when he arrived back in this country. LIVELY ISSUE The issue prompted scads of let- '|ters to the editor plus opinions by such well known sports personali- ties as Gordon Pirie, the runner, who said publicly that he consid- ered Hawthorn has done Britain more good by winning car races than a whole "battalion" of froons. Others accused Hawthorn of being unpatriotic bec nse he was driving Italian rather than British cars. Hawthorn has defended himself vigorously from abroad. He has been in an Italian hospital recover- crash. "I'm no dodger--I haven't done anything illegal," he said. He was down for duty with the Royal Air Force when he made his racing debut in 1952. :Mightyas + amoose COMMERCIAL USERS CHOOSE RUGGED LOW COST Vds7 12 h.p outboard motor Fitted for Elto Remote Controls Optional Plug-in Fuel Tank = Depends ble, | st, Powerful "U" Low, Low cosT! ® See the Elto 12, Elito 3 ond ® Eto 5 ot your dealer's NOWH ® Write for literature and new o "Sportsman's Handbook." ® Made in Canada with Sales and Service everywhere, listed under "Outboard Motors" in classified ° phone book. .
