THE BARBIE mm MONDAY MARCH 25 195 CANADIANS WITH LEAFS Canadian boys playing baseballwith the Toronto Maple Leafs Sounds gmatdocsnt It isntra reality yet either but all indications point toward such ii bannercvent Even the thought of such thing was great about year ago But hope was lessened lastspring when the one native boy who seemed to have the bestchance of sticking with the club was shipped to poian further south That was the Bobby lrenticc case Prentice Is Tor onto boy who has played pro ball in the States for severalseasons Once highlytouted by the Cleveland indinos of the American Base ball League Prentice was purchased by the Leafs to fill in at any of the bases But last seasons manager llruno Beuel wasnt too sold on Prent ice and the pleasant dreams of so many Canadians were turned to nightmares Bobbywas reported to be goodhit notvsohot glove man The man he wasbattling with to win the utility job Walter Dcrucki was just the opposite it is now common knowledge that Dcrucki stayed around He was so highly thought of that hewasnt even with the Leafs when springrlrailiing started few weeks back it is also com mon knowledge that Betzel is no longer withtho team either although its blueribbon spring when last falls manager is around But things brightened again this spring when few Canucks were invited tatrain withthe international Leaguers Mostpublicizcd of the boys was Bonnie Stead who for several years had been the clubs batboy He is still few years away from Triple play but his day is pleasant Nelson Skuie gaining lot of praise at the Leaf camp lie is staff moundsman and is reported to have the best curveball of any of the pitchers presently with the Leafs Like most youngsters however he has tendency to be very wild Charlie Burns who is more renowned for his hockey ability is warranting considcisble attention by his work behind the plate Burns was seriously injured in Junior hockey game acouple of years ago and it was feared that his sporls career was at an end There are at least two other Canadian boys in the international loop Billy Harris pitched great ball for the Montreal Royals and Tim Burgess has been an asset to the Rochester Red Wings for the last few seasons Burgess muffcd his best chance to move up to the big leagues when he suffered broken wrist Glen Gorbus western Canada youngster spent some time in the hig tent last season but finished the year with an AAA club Gail liarris had similar summer but is at the trainingcamp of big lea gue club again this season incidentally the Leafs play their home opener on Mayl against the Miami Marlins its Wednesday and gamctimc is pm ANOTHER CHANGE As longas there is professional boxing in Toronto while this scribe is here two things are going to happen for sure First is that you people will be continually submerged with our opinion of the fights Second is that this corner will leave certain boxcrs future to his handlers You will remember and embarrassingly so do that recently there have been some words of praise written about young George Chiivalo in this column We can remember saying that he surely has great future and is ready for better competition then he has so for experienced Happily enough we did not go down alone Other scribes saw fit to fcolthe same way But look at Chuvolos handlers After they build him up they turn around and throw all kinds of doubts at the public They didnt have to say word All theyhad to do was match him against fighter named Moses Graham This match this evening will prove about as interesting as staring at dirty floor ilcre is why we look with contempt at this particular event About two months ago this very same Moses Graham fought preliminary bout at the Gardens His opponent Billy Hunt Hunter now referred to for publicity sake as William Hunter was also lost in the shuffle of eyeryday fighters Anyhow Hunter won the match which was not given more tbnna passing mention in any news sheet Our opinion of the fight was that it was pawing duet with nobody hurt nobody impressive just nobodies Nowin such short time Moses is acclaimed fit material for Chuvalo if that really be so then Geo must be very sick and is going to fight froma wheel chair with both arms tied behind his back with blindfold over his eyes But Whoa We promised not to guide the young battlcr Do as you please Mr Allen Let him fight bums such as Graham Buta little bird told us that you dont reach the top of the ladder going back Will gt gt This fight or whatever it will turn out to be is still secondary to the middleweight clash between Torontos Lil
