Now he's aiming for a berth on Canada's team for the 1964 Olympic Games at Tokyo. "Tt started out being. a hobby, but now I eat, sleep and think weightlifting," he said in an in- terview. Heis picked up more than a love for the sport since he started six years ago, before leaving Barbados for Canada. He won the Canadian med- ship in both 1961 and 1062. He placed second in the North American championships in 1961. Last year he won a second- t'place silver medal for Canada in the British Empire Games at Perth, Australia. He became a citizen last Sonal making him eligible to 'present Canada at the Olym- Pics. STAR OF YMCA Montreal's Central YMCA, where White trains under Dave Baillie, Olympic representative- coach and retired Canadian heavyweight champion, picked him as their athlete of the year, "He has the potential to gain points in the Olympics," says Baillie. 'He hasn't even come close to realizing his full poten- tial." White goes to the YMCA four times a week for sessions last:-| ing two to three hours. } ' jum ~- heavyweight champion- 'Started As A Hobby.

Frank Socum, an aide of base- ball commissioner Ford Frick-- details the successes of some former ball players. Among those who tell their stories are Bobby Brown, for- mer New York Yankee third baseman and now a specialist in heart diseases; Jackie Rob- inson, vice-president of a rest- aurant chain; Bobby Feller, owner of an insurance agency, and Kevin Connors, formerly a Los Angeles Dodger first base- man and now a television star. The point is made that basé- ball offers great opportunities for quick advancement, an early evaluation of career pos- sibilities and wide recognition. Baseball's pension plan with health benefits and insurance is outined, of the United States and all the major parts of Canada except Prince Edward Island, ,and I'll get there yet." Previously he did a lot of swimming and also played soc- cer, but he's cautious about soc- cer now. "T"a be awful mad at my- self if I got injured and ruined my chances for that trip to Tokyo," he explained. REMEMBER WHEN .. .? By THE CANADIAN PRESS The first night major league baseball game in his- tory was played 26: years ago at Cincinnati. Playing to daytime crowds of 5,000, the Reds made.an immediate success with night games and drew 20,000 persons to that first game in which Reds defeated Philadelphia 2-1, Bad Weather Still Plagues Tennis Club The bad weather, which has already upset tennis enthusi- asts early in the month, con- tinued to play havoc with the schedule of the Oshawa Tennis Club over the weekend. Although some courts were playable, the damp, cold and often wintery weather made playing conditions anything but pleasant, As a further complication, league matches which are post- age due to rain have had to layed on the few fine days available, which has cut furth- er into playing time. In order to make the most time available for members, the directors an- nounced today that plans. for friendly matches scheduled for the next three weeks have been either cancelled or postponed, until the weather improves. The opening date round-robin, which has already been twice postponed, is now scheduled for Saturday afternoon, at 2:30, when it is hoped that all who have shown interest in the past two or three weeks, will be ipresent and taking part. The_ instruction program, which also has suffered from bad weather, is proceeding well however, and the final pro- fessional instruction period will be held tonight (Thursday at 7.00 p.m.). This has proved a very popular feature and has been of great help to beginners and playing members. Junior instruction commenced last Saturday, although again curtailed by weather conditions. This will continue each Satur- day morning throughout the summer, with additional periods on Tuesdays and Thurs- days throughout the summer holidays. M. S. Golfers Will Enjoy Heavy Greens TURNBERRY, Scotland (CP- AP)--Dick Tufts, captain of the United States Walker Cup golf team, said Wednesday the hold- ing greens on the Turnberry links would suit his team in the two-day match against Britain Friday and Saturday. Heavy rain soaked the 7,025. yard course earlier this week and made. it possible for play- ers to play target golf--a com. mon style in the U.S. but un- usual in Britain. "We can shoot for the pin and know the greens will hold," said Tufts. "This is a big advantage for us." The British team was hopeful that sunshine which bathed the course Wednesday would con. tinue, drying the greens and making them faster. The British have won only once in 18 Walker Cup matches. That was in 1938. The cup will be decided over 24 matches with four scotch foursomes and eight singles on each day of play. All/ matches will be of 18 holes instead of the 36 in previous Walker Cup play. McLaughlin Holds Track-Field Meet The R, 8. McLaughlin Col- legiate's own track-and-field meet was completed this week. It had run on a_ three-week basis, May 9, May 22 and May 23, each afternoon, following regular classes with the teach- ing staff i officials and judges, with Miss D. Pappas and A. Schell as co-convener of the competition, The new track and jumping pits were used for the first time in competition and the fa- cilities, while still not yet per- fected, will eventually prove the best available. Cold and wet weather marred the perform- ances in track and jumping events but other competitions were up to standard, with over 300 competing. McLaughin CVI athletes won 'the district Track and Field Meet, at Whitby last week. Individual championships were claimed by Bev, March as Junior Champion and Janet Sparling in the Senior events, in the girls' competition while Ross Taylor with 22 points was named Junior champion, with Jim Lawrenee as runner-up, 19 points. In the Intermediate class, Larry Plancke with 23 points, won the title, followed by Tim Dittmar, with 20 points while Don Gutsole won the Sen- ior championship with 20 points and Terry Vail was next in line with 17 points, In the "House Championship" competition, Western copped top honors with 143 points while McMaster and Queen's tied with 101 points each.
