The 31-year-old veteran of over 100 pro fights was dropped from the 147-pound division's elite in the latest Ring Magazine's ratings, re- leased Wednesday, as the result of his loss to unheralded and oft- beaten Chris Christensen of Den- mark. Earl Walls of Toronto ranked ninth among the heavyweights. Harold Johnson of Philadelphia held on to his No. 1 contender's post in the light heavyweight di- vision because of his Zod scrap with champion Archie Moore but middleweight Rocky Castellani, who was outclassed by champion Bobo Olson, fell from No. 1 to No. 2.

'S. tawa professionals have at one an- other Saturday afternoon will be : Lindsey Nelson, NBC's able com- mentator, and Jim Crowley, w ho learned considerable Ameri- can football as a member of Notre Dame's famous "Four Horsemen," as coach at Fordham and as presi- dent of the All-American Confer ence. Nelson will be expected to call the play-by-play, or a reasonable facsimile thereof, for his Ameri- can audience, and Crowley to ap ply the '"'color" during periods when there's no action on the field. After thinking it over care- fully, they've decided not to have A Canadian within speaking dis- tance. CAUSE CONFUSION "It would only confuse things," Nelson explains, "to have a Cana- dian expert coming on every now and then saying that it hadn't hap- pened the way Jim and I told it. We don't want anybody second- guessing us." The gridiron explorers were up north last week to watch an ex- hibition game and to see if all their reading up on Canadian rules had really sunk in. Crowley's eyes American Fans Looking Forward Watch Canadian Football On T.V. that," a Canadian enthusiast re- marked to Crowley, is|Jim replied. EXPECT NO TROUBLE ' "Not Intentionally, anyway, Actually, neither of our nervous experts expects to have top much trouble interpreting the Canadian version unless somet! peculiar happens, and both of them think the American audence is going to like the swifter-moving game very much after a brief indoctrination. "There really isn't a great deal of difference once you get beyond the fact that there's a fifth man in the backfield and that they get only three chances to make a first down instead of four," Nelson says. "There are a lot of other little differences that Jim and I will have to watch for, but they won't mean a lot to the audience. It was suggested that American fans might find it confusng that a team ian score a point merely by kicking the ball across its oppo- nent's end zone. Seems like a mighty easy way to pick up tally. Nelson said you can forget about that. END ZONE DEEPER "In the first place, their -=nd zone is 25 yards deep instead of our 10," he explained. "If a team is down close enough to the goal line to where it is almost a cinch to punt for one point it is more likely to try to complete a pass into that big, wde end zone for five points. Or it might even prefer to run, because the defending team has that big end zone to pro- tect and can't afford to pull its backs in right behind the line, as our teams do."

Farris of the Brit- ish Columbia Supreme Court Wed- nesday set aside an interim in- junction against Laurie Niemi, star tackle of the B.C. Lions. The injunction restraining Niemi from playing or practising with the newly-formed Western Inter- provincial Football Union team was obtained Friday by Pro-Football Inc), owners of the Washington Redskins of the National Football League. Niemi played for Redskins last season and the team contended he was under option to them this year. The decision allows Niemi to play against Winnipeg Blue Bomb- ers here Saturday night in the Lions' WIFU debut. No date has been set for the next round of the court battle. CRITICIZES STAND Chief Justice Farris called the Redskins' stand "a dog-in-the- manger" attitude. He said the Lions and Redskins - were playing different games in different coun- tries and there seemed to no competition between them. "His playing here can't damage the plaintiff. "The injury was done when he (Niemi) failed to report to Wash- ington, which is apart from this case altogether." OLD COUNTRY SOCCER LONDON (Reuters)--Soccer re- sults in Britain Thursday: ENGLSH LEAGUE * Division Charlton A 2 Leicester C 3 Division 111 (Southern Brentford 2 Shrewsbury T 2 Leyton Orient 1 Millwall 0 Newport C 1 Norwich C 1 Northampton T 1 Crystal P 1 SCOTTSH LEAGUE GLASGOW CUP 1ST ROUND REPLAY Partick T 1 Queens P 1 Out To Get Fourth 'Open' Frank Ahead By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr. DETROIT (AP)--The field in the national amateur golf champion- ship was divided today between a few "haves" and a lot of 'have nots'--speaking in terms of na- tional reputations--as the last 16 survvors set out on another double round of 18-hole matches. And standing out head and shoul- ders above the rest was Frank Stranahan, who must be numbered among the "haves" in any way of reckoning. The muscular 32-year- old Toledo spark plug heir has won national championships in three countries, including the coveted British Amateur twice. And he's dead set on winning the American title--the only important one that has escaped him. The 16 players left of an original field included, along with Strana- han, Dale Morey, Don Cherry, Bill Campbell, Bob Sweny, Ed Meister and Arnold Palmer, all players with more than a little fame in amateur circles, NAME PLAYERS STOPPED There was no assurance at all that these seven would survive to- day's fifth and sixth rounds. The lineup was such that almost any one could go the way of Billy Joe Patton, the fast-talking, wild-shoot- ing North Carolina gallery idol; internationalists Harvey Ward and Jim Jackson end long-hitting Ho- bart Manley and Dave Smith, all of whom were eliminated in Wed- nesday's double knockout. Stranahan, who stopped ward on the 18th hole Wednesday and then disposed of another old acquaint- ance, Tommy Sheehan, runs right into another rugged match against Cleveland's Palmer, who has been shooting about as good golf as any amateur around this summer. In the same quarter of the draw, Cherry, who croons in a night club until 'late hours then makes his Sarnia Takes Grid Opener Fumble Hurts SARNIA (CP)--Sarnia Imperials capitalizéd on a fumble by Kitch- ener-Waterloo Dutchmen late in the fourth quarter here Wednesday night to win 28-19 in game in the Senior Ontario Football Union's 1954 schedule. More than 5,000 fans witnessed the game Tackle Ross Smith recovered the fumble on the Kitchener nine-yard line late in the fourth quarter with the Dutchmen leading 19-17. On the first play from scrimmage Bobby Lee, second-year import halfback, went around right end to the one on a pitchout from im- port quarterback Jim Lambert. On the next play import halfback Cookie Gilchrist from Braken- ridge, Pa., dived onto a pile of players to score the game's win- ning touchdown. Lambert con- verted to complete the scoring, STRONG IN FIRST The Dutchmen were their strong- est in the first quarter when they went ahead 12-0. Blake Taylor, former Hamilton Tiger-Cats, scored the first major from one yard out after @ march from the Kitch- ener 42, Just before the quarter ended Paul Amodio, import half from Kent State College in Ohio, re- covered an onside kick by quarter- back Bob Celeri on the Sarnia 49. A screened pass to former Brant- ford Redskin Dutch Holland picked up 11 yards and then Amodio took a Celeri pass on the Sarnia five and fell over the goal line. Stu Crouse converted both majors to make the first quarter score 12-0 in Kitchener's favor. In the second quarter the Im- perials broke into the scoring on a 24-yard field goal by Gilchrist. A short time later Kitchener went ahead 13-3 on a punt by Celeri from the Sarnia 583 which bounced over the Sarnia deadline. Late in the second quarter the Imperials marched from their own 15 to the Kitchener 14. Gilchrist then picked up six yards and Lee after a pitchout from Lambert went around left end for a touchdown. Lambert converted and the Dutch- men led 13-9 as the half ended. Two passes by Lambert to Jim Burr and Perk Johnston for a total of 54 yards aided the Im- perials in their drive for the win- ners' first touchdown. SARNIA TAKES LEAD The Imperials took the lead for the first time in the third quarter when Lee scored his second touch- down of the game on a one-yard plunge and Lambert converted to make the score 15-13. The Imper- ials had driven on the ground from their own 15-yard line, picking up eight first downs. Kitchener regained the lead late in the third quarter when the Dutchmen took to the air and marched from their own 34 to the 18 from where Celeri passed_to Bill Sarnia end zone. Crouse kicked his third convert to make it 19-15. Early in the final quarter Im- perials moved to within two points of the Dutchmen when Jim Burr kicked into the Kitchener end zone and Carl Totzke punched the ball in touch, giving Sarnia a safety touch. The Imperials' game - winning major came with approximately five minutes of play remaining. The Imperials went to the air 16 times and Lambert made four com- pletions. Celeri tried 20 passes and completed 10, Sarnia picked up 25 first downs to Kitchener's 17.

(CP Photo) Lemon Needs One More Win Equal Feller By BEN PHLEGAR Associated Press Sports Writer Bob Lemon, who moved from obscurity in the outfield to stardom on the pitching mound, needs only one more victory to complete his sixth season of 20 or more tri- umphs. Only one other active pitcher-- Lemon's Cleveland teammate Bob Feller--has enjoyed such success. It took ' the 33-year-old right- hander eight seasons of profes- sional ball to decide to concentrate on pitching. But once he put his mind to it in 1948, Lemon became a 20-game winner immediately. Only a slump in 1951, when he posted a 17-14 record, mars his string of 20-plus seasons, a hall- mark of fame in the pitching pro- fession. Feller's 20-game run was broken by the war. He has a total of six. Percentagewise, 1954 could be Lemon's best year. He won his 19th game Wednesday night, 4-3 over Philadelphia in 10 innings, and he has lost only five. The last 10 triumphs have come in sue- cession. CAME FROM BEHIND The Indians had to struggle for their Wednesday night success, coming from two runs behind to tie the score at 3-3 in the eighth, then winning on a walk and Hal Naragon's triple in the 10th.

A club spokesman said Thursday night it wasn't interested in the big Amer- ican end, put on the Big Four waiver list by Toronto Argonauts earlier this week. There had been some talk that Bruno would wind up here this season. THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, August 37, 195¢ 413 VERY LARGE CROWD Evenin g Goes Accident Free Thrills Galore In Main Event Like the saying goes, * ventured, nothing ained", many people took attitued apd were well pleased with the result of the B. : The evening consisted of time trials during the bpening hour, fol- lowed by four ten lap events and topped off with 'the big fifty lap grand contest. TIGHT AND TOUGH The very first prelimin event of the night was a hard luc! race as one of the lead cars fell out of the race less than thirty feet from the finish line, After starting from a back Josi- tion, number 22, Bob Beck, slowly advanced until he had third place all sewed up close behind ®ie sec ond place car, but just thigqy feet from the finish line he went into a spin as he was completing the last turn and spun onto the infield grass, ending up tating the op- posite direction to which he wa going. To make amends for hig tough break in the first heat, Bob came back in the third event and from a pole position took the heat. The second place car in the third ten-lap event was number 72, driv- en by Whitey Demoree who cre up to second position after boy= more than half a lap behind, less than three laps from the finish. The second heat of the ten-lap contests was the best of these four heat prelims and it narrowed down to a contest between a 1953 Hudson Hornet, 'driven by George Flem- ming (8) and a 1954 Hudson Horn- et driven by Ray Davis (11). Both cars lapped the other en- tries during the event, in their mad dash about the quartermile as- phalt track, and it was a first right down to the last foot. Ray |B: Davis finally edged ahead and crossed the finish line ahead by about three feet. BUM START, TRY AGAIN The big event of the evening had fourteen cars at the starting line and after the Jate lap they opened up for the first lap of the fifty they had to cover. They #°ver completed that opening trip be- cause three cars piled into each other as they were coming out of the first turn of the lap. Because of a rule that the first lap has to be completed by every entry, the event had to be re- started. ; The second was perfect and they were in a lling fifty er mile, laps around the K AD AND PT IT Paul Parks took the lead by the end of the first lap and although he had very keen competition from car number 72 he maintained his spot for the entire run. Whitey Demoree started on the tall of number four and even tho he stayed there for most of the race he was a good half lap behind at the finish. The next man was number 777, Fran Pfonts and all three leaders lapped the other entries.
