LJ WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1949 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIFTEEN ORNER --for Outdoor Sportsmen POPULAR FISHING SPOT | Toronto--Dickson Lake, Algon- | quin Park, is a popular fishing spot ior anglers who can afford to charter aircraft for their fishing | trips, according to records of the Ontario Department of Londs and Forests for 1948. During May, June, July and August last year 3 fishermen went after speckled trout in Dickson in May, 22 in June, 16 in July and 46 in August. Of 'the | ONSERVATION | | 699 aircraft landings -- not includs , ing privately owned aircraft -- 274 - warned fishermen and pilots today * the forest fire season and other du- were made in May, 89 in June, 154 | in July and 182 in August. A total of 775 anglers chartered commer- cial planes to fly into the Park, the records show. Seventy-five lakes in the 2,700 square mile Park area are closed to fishing in 1949, and officials of the Fish and Wild-life Division, | Lands and Forests Department, to check before heading parkward for their trout fishing.

This was demonstrated recently when Alex Durette, Pasquale Boisvenue, Al- cidas Labrosse,r Ernest Rivard, Rheal Depuis and John Kenny ap- peared before Magistrate Willard Cooper in police court at Jamot in the Sudbury District, charged with the theft of timber, pulpwood and fuelwood in varying quantities. All six men were convicted. Durette was charged with the theft of 553 logs and 51 cords of pulpwood with a market value of $1000. He was fined $200 and costs or as an alternative 60 days in goal. Boisvenue was fined $50 and costs for the theft of 31 logs. Labrosse had illegally taken 32 logs and 7 cords of fuelwood and was fined $50 and costs. Rivard cut 147 logs but claimed he had made applica- tion for a permit. He was fined $25 and costs. Depuis who had illegally | taken 4 cords of fuelwood from 18 | Mile land and hauled it across the ice to the mainland was fined $25 and costs. Kenny who was charged with the theft of 13 cords of pulp- wood claimed he had made a de- posit on wood cut by him during the winter and thought it had all been paid for. The Magistrate placed him on suspended sentence. Emphasizing the serious nature of the offences the Magistrate com- mented "this wanton robbery of Ontario's forest wealth must be halted". The timber will be sold by the Department. During the same session of the court Donat Demerse was convicted of illegally trapping a beaver after the close of the season. He was fined $50 without costs or 30 days in gaol. For using artificial lights and a spear for the taking of pickerel; Roland and Raymond Lafortune were each fined $10 and costs of $12.50 or 10 days in goal. The Over- seer caught the men in the act and found three pickerel in their pos- session. CULLERS EXAMINATION Announcement is made that the following have passed the neces- sary examination and have been recommended for full licences as Posture Is Vital In Golf By ALEC J, MORRISON Central Press Canadian Sports Writer "I'd give anything to know what causes this or that," emphatically states the serious minded pupil. Being much, of the same mind I immediately assume that he means exactly what he says, that he really wants to know the origin of his troubles. Invariably he considers and talks about the golf swing in terms of its physical phase, that is, the positions » Posture is important in most things, but in golf it is vital. As shown above, any forward bending should occur in the hip joints and not in the spine. --Central Press Canadian. * + # and movements a player goes | through in hitting the ball. So my i answer is worded in the same | terms. I explain that all variations in | the flight of the ball, all of the errors made in the positions and movements of the hands, arms and head generally are caused by faulty posture. I demonstrate enough of | the right and wrong positions and movements to show the dependence of hands, arms and head on what | the body does. Seeing that he is hard to con- [] vince I compare the golf swing to a machine that cannot operate with- out being set up on the proper foundation. There's a good chance that he will continue to argue that the origin of his faults is to be found outside of body balance or action, Then I must resort to proof found in action pictures of all kinds of players. These pictures show the most successful players in a de- cidedly upright posture with little or no bend in their necks or back, the main bend taking place in the hip joints. These pictures also show that when the most advanced players depart from this relatively upright posture they suffer alarming slumps in scoring. The desired posture can be experienced by standing stork- like on your left leg with your back straight and bending only at your left hip. This bend will be easy to execute if you start fully erect. And you'll find the more upright posture will help every shot you play. Remember, your tendency always is to bend your neck or back, not at your hip joints. sawlog and pulpwood cullers in Ontario: -- .

Podbielan won 13 games and came up with the third best earned-run average while pitching for Montreal in the International League last year. The lanky hurler Tuesday night came up with his best performance of the year. He pitched the Royals to a 7-0, one-hit triumph over Sy- racuse and spoiled Podbielan's bid for a no-hitter. Podbielan walked two and fanned five. The victory enabled the Royals to pull to within 3% games of the league-leading Jersey City Giants who dropped a twin bill to the run- ner-up Buffalo Bisons. Rookie Luis Aloma pitched the Bisons to a 3-1, two-hit triumph in the opener and Saul Rogovin coast- ed to a 12-5 breeze in the night- cap. Ray Coleman drove home two runs in the first game and three in the nightcap to lead the Bisons' attack. The Bisons trail the Giants by two games. The fourth-place Toronto Maple Leafs took a doubleheader from Newark Bears, 11-3 and 6-4, to move to within seven percentage points of the Royals. Lou Possehl breezed to his third victory in the opener, allowing six hits, two of them homers by Bud Heslet and Hank Workman. Mike Goliat sparked Toronto's 13-hit bar- rage by driving home four runs on a homer, double and single. Rookie Max Peterson's string of consecutive scoreless Indians was snapped at 26 when the Bears knocked him out in the ninth in- ning of the finale with a four-run blast. The Leafs sewed up the game in the fourth inning, scoring five runs on Johnny Blatnik's homer and four Newark errors. Rochester's fifth-place Red Wings captured a pair of games from-Bal- timore Orioles, 4-3 and 8-5. Erv Dusak went the route in the opener and won out as Ed Mierco- wiz blasted a two run homer in the | fifth off Bryan Stephens. In the nightcap, Frank Mancuso socked a three-run homer in the seventh and Red McQuillen a two- run circuit blast in the eighth. SPORT SHORTS FROM BRITAIN By SHAUN McQUILLAN Canadian Press Staff Writer London, June '8--(CP)--Baytown Colonel would rather curl up on a psychiatrist's couch than race his heart out against a bunch of other greyhounds. Baytown Colonel works himself into such a pitch of nervous tension in the racing kennels he suffers from cramp during the event. Twice recently he had the measure of his opponents. On both occasions he collapsed as he turned into the back straight. ' 'It was clearly a psychiatrist's case, said greyhound pundits. And Bay- town Colonel took "nerves" treat- ment from Harley Street psycho- therapist Charles Brook. Then the test. . The dog looked a certainty from the start but coming into the back straight 8,000 Walthamstow Sta- dium fans saw him double up with cramp to finish fourth. As attendants carried the dog away, owner C, W. Charles said: "psychology does not seem . to have done my dog any good. But we still hope to run him in the (greyhound) Derby, although it will all depend on his condition.. "The idea of having him psycho- analyzed came from trainer Stanley Biss, who thought it might be well | worth while." Despite his recent poor running, Baytown Colonel has been backed down to second favorite for the Derby. He is considered one of the outstanding dogs of the year. Philip Wills, British Gliding As- sociation chairman, has beaten the British national distance record for single-seflter gliders with a flight of 230 miles. He landed at Gerrans, Cornwall, five hours, 50 minutes after casting off from a tow plane over Hatfield, Hertfordshire, The record is sub- ject to confirmation. Previous record was 215 miles, set in the United States in 1047 by Charles Wingfield in a British glider. George Beard, 28-year-old taxi driver, and his "fare", saw Wills' glider land. They acted as witnes- ses, signing a "certificate" on a business card. Tom Hall, 48, of Yealmpton, Dev- onshire, hadn't played football for 20 years, but after his wife and child died it became his chief in- terest to watch local games, A keen supporter of the Yealmp- ton club, he went with the team to nearby Bridgerule to cheer them, Yealmpton was a man short, so Tom was asked to play. He was pleased. But 20 minutes after the game started, he fell dead. The match was abandoned. MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS NATIONAL Batting--Marshall, New York, 332. Runs--Gordon and Lockman, New York, 39.

Spicy Bits From Other Sports Cols. By GRAMAM TROTTER Winnipeg, June 8--(CP) -- The hockey season is tucked away with the moth balls--finally--but the winter sport still is a hot topic among the arm-chair strategists. Well to the fore in editorial com- ment is treatment of the sport's budding stars of tomorrow. Two Manitoba sport columnists have come to the defence of the trans- fer rule practised by the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association. Leave Well Enough Alone "It may sound like high treason for Brandon to be opposing an in- crease in the number of imports, for this city has used the import rule to the limit," says Krug (Bran- don Sun) Crawford. "But having settled for two out- of-the-province players for the last two seasons we think that the rule is working to the benefit of clubs operating under the C.AH.A." Krug should know what he is talking about. He paid typewriter service to Brandon's Junior Wheat Kings and saw them wind up in the Memorial Cup finals with Montreal Royals. And they got there with only two players import- ed from other junior hockey branches. Look Out For Pros Krug cast an eye at the profes- sional hockey clubs and noted that as they gather more and more young talent under their collective .wings, they also try to place them close to the parent club if possible. This is all preparatory to an early jump into the bigtime. oof "And now that the National Hoc- key League has ruled that 16 men can dress for all games, they may have need for keen, young substi- tutes over a 70-game route." As a parting shot, Krug main- tains that relaxation of the import rule for juniors "would have the result of concentrating all the top- notch talent in areas directly con- trolled by the pro clubs." C.AH.A. rules now allow British Columbia clubs to import four jun- jors in one year. The other prov- inces are allowed two. Consider Poppa Maurice (Free Press) Smith likes the idea of youngsters being consid- ered free agents until they sign a juvenile certificate for the first time, "It is a well-known fact that many parents are not happy over prevalent rules whereby their son, once he signs a bantam or midget playing certificate for a club re- mains the property of that club throughout his amateur days," says Maurice. What about the C.A.H.A.'s refusal to grant branch-to-branch trans- fers to juveniles? "We've always thought it was one of the most sen sible rules in the C.A.-H.A. book be- cause it prevents boys from leaving their parental roof when too young." Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. New York, June 8--(AP)--Ed Olle, business manager of athletics at the University of Texas, gets a great kick, out of telling about a visit he received last spring from an old prep school friend named Horne . . . Asked what occasioned his visit, Horne replied: "I brought my son here for the state meet." . . . . Thinking of athletics, Olle asked: "What's he running?" . .. Dejectedly Horne replied: "He's not running; he's in the one-act play contest." . . . The kid, Tom Horne, heard of the conversation and told his dad, "I'll go back next year as a track man, too." . . . So in the 1949 track meet, Tom Horne turned up in the half-mile run and won it in division-record time. He col- lapsed as he crossed the finish line, but two hours later he was com- peting in the one-act play contest. His team won. first place in class B and young Horne was named to the all-star cast. Sports Before Your Eyes Oxford's Jack Bannister, who'll lead the Oxford-Cambridge track team against Cornell and Prince- ton Saturday, knocked off a 4:16.2 mile on a nasty day last spring to break the 44-year-old record for the Oxford-Cambridge meet . . . Too bad they won't have a chart caller on the P.A, at the Princeton meet. Weld like to hear him sing out: "Bannister has the rail." . . . Joe Donovan, former Newark, N.J., sports writer, has become editor of a trade paper, Shuffleboard News. Chances are the news will be lost in the shuffle, Bill Ezinicki Has Card of 77 Ten Behind Pace By AL VICKERY Canadian Press Staff Writer Winnipeg, June 8--(CP) --- An American Professional and a Can- adian Amateur held the top two spots today as play started in the second 18 holes of Winnipeg's $2,- 000 Jubilee Open Golf Tourna- ment over St. Charles Country Club layout. Stocky Wally Ulrich, profession- al from Minneapolis took the lead when he broke the old course rec- ord of 69 with a sizzling six-under- par 67. Runner-up and only one stroke off the pace is Winnipeg's Allan Boes, Manitoba Open and Amateur Titleholder. Ulrich's performance never once was above par on any hole, turn- ing in six birdies and 12 pars. In third spot and four strokes back of the leader was stylish Stan Leonard of Vancouver, pre-tour- nament favorite. The West Coast pro toured the opening nine in one-under-par 35 and clipped a stroke off par 37 on the back nine for his 71. Despite Ulrich's four- stroke advantage, spectators still are calling Leonard "the man to beat." The highly-favored Bob Gray, pro at Toronto's Scarboro Club, experienced difficulty with the fast-rolling greens and short-cut fairways but managed to stay in contention with a 75, Mike Pid- laski of Winnipeg and Phil Farley of Toronto, both amateurs, follow- ed with 76's. : Second American entry in the tourney, Bobby Reith of Detroit, a former Winnipegger, turned in a 77 as did Bill Exnicki, hockey star with the Toronto Maple Leafs, who plays his golf at Toronto Uplands Club, Bill Mawhinney of Vancouver, Dominion Junior Champion, was far back with an 82. The "Scrum" was eliminated from U.S. football in 1880, Big League Basehall Yesterday By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer "As Stan Musial goes, so go the St. Louis Cardinals." Never was a truer statement made, Look at the record. Musial! got off te a miserable start. So did the Cards, On May 24, just 15 days ago, St. Louis' three-time Batting champ was hitting a puny .250. According- ly, the Cardinals were mired in seventh place with a 12-17 won and lost record. Since then, Stan The Man has rapped out 22 hits in 58 times at bat for a .379 batting average. Con-, formably, the Redbirds went on a team, winning 13 of the 15 games. Today, Musial is hitting a siead- ily progressive 301, and the surg- ing Cardinals are in second place, SEly a half game away from the op. The Redbirds whipped the New York Giants, 3-0, at the Polo Grounds Tuesday night and Musial provided the big punch, Stan club- bed two homers off Monte Kenne- dy, his 10th and 11th of the season, to drive in all the runs. Southpaw Harry Brecheen scat- tered five giant blows. Took Over Top Brooklyn Dodgers took over un- disputed possession of first place by trouncing Chicago, 7-1. New York Giants dropped from a first place tie to fourth place, a half game behind the Boston Braves, who nipped the Cincinnati Reds, 6-5. The Braves trail the Cards by three percentage points. Southpaw Preacher Roe tamed the Cubs on six hits. He lost his | shutout in the seventh when Andy Pafko cracked a home run, The Dodgers collected 15 safeties off Dutch Leonard, Bob Chipman and Cal McLish. The most prodigious blow was Duke Snider's ninth hom- T. The winning run in the Boston- Cincinnati game crossed the plate on a "Pribe boner" by Cincinnati outfielder Frank Baumbholtz. Boston already had tied the score when relief pitcher Jesse Dobernic walked Ed Stanky with the bases loaded. With one out, Al Dark sent a looping fly down the right field foul line, which Baumholtz caught in foul territory allowing Tomy Holmes to cross the plate with the winning run. Philadelphia Phils scored two runs in the bottom half of the ninth to defeat Pittsburgh Pirates 6-5 after the Bucs had counted once in the top half of the inning. Four consecutive hits, climaxed by Andy Seminick's single off relief pitcher Murry Dickson, settled the issue. Cut Yanks Lead Detroit defeated New York Yan- kees, 5-2, in the American League's only day contest, to cut the front- running Yankees' lead to 5! games. Bob Swift's home run with a man on base highlighted a three-run fourth inning enabling Hal New- houser to register his fifth victory. Ed Lopat was charged with the de- feat, his first against five victories. Larry Doby crashed two homers, and rookie shortstop Ray Boone banged out two triples and a pair of singles to lead Cleveland In- dians to a 13-11 slugfest victory over Washington Senators.
