FRIDAY, MAY 11, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN Local Scrapper Wins Main Bout In Lively 8-Bout Mitt Card penny Williams Gets Nod In Hard- Fought 5- Rounder with Hugh Lindsay -- Tony Ptak's Win In Semi-Final Not Unanimous By Any Means -- Oshawa Boys Make Good Showing In Most Cases Denny Williams provided some fine distic action last night and earned a split decision over Hugh Lindsay of Toronto in the main bout of Harold Reddick's second boxing card of the season. Williams fought over the five- round route and was the aggressor most of the way, picking a lot of points in this manner. The first vound was fairly slow, with both boys saving their energy for the slug-fests to come. In the second, each fighter land- ed some solid blows, but the flurry was a short one. The fans had to wait for the third round before the | action became hot and heavy. Start To Slug | It was then that Lindsay was at his best, giving more than he was taking. He evaded a lot of Williams' blows by backing out and weaving. The "Kid" wasn't connecting in the manner that he did in the fifth and final round. His misses provided Lindsay with some great openings, and the latter took advantage. He had the "Kid" in trouble in the fourth, but Denny backed out of the hole, and by dint of some looping rights and lefts, got | Sno even terms before the final In the final test Denny showed a | lot of staying power and through | this, was able to match and over- power his opponent from Toronto | to gain the nod. | Unpopular Decision | That bout was well received by | the fans, but the semi-final, though | 5, the action was great, got some loud | beos after the decision was an-| nounced. Evidently many of the) fans disagreed with the official | score-cards that had Tony - Ptak ahead on points. | This was a five-round affair full | of action all the way. Tuck is a smart boxer, always on balance | and always on the look for any | small opening. Ptak is just the op- | posite, believing in battering his op- penent to the ground if it's within | the realm of possibility. Tuck had Ptak bleeding slightly | in the fourth after a third round | in which he had the local light sit- ting out an eight-count knock- | down. | Ptak's best flurry came in the early seconds of the fifth, but even | after that, Johnny Tuck staged a | comeback that made things very questionable. | Other Local Bouts 'Two other-bouts of local interest | were held, both three-round pre- lims. Ed Shultz decisioned Art Nay- lor and lpeked fairly good in doing 80. Bobby Burrows, the popular lo- cal bob-and-weave artist, snatched a decision from Ken Coburn in a re-match, Burrows showed a fine left in the last round and staggered his opponent a couple of times. The only draws of the night oc- curred in the exhibition between | Al Hardsands and Bob McPhee of | Oshawa, a replacement bout for te | one scheduled between George La- | roque and Verdun Dutrisac, and in the first prelim between Martin Laroque and Dou» Carn-t, PRELIMINARIES sn Tree Rounds) Doug Garnet fought to draw wi Martin Laroque. i 1 Nex McArthur decisioned Al Ro- and.

' RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT Vv ' It is quite likely to be a bat. ter's day this Saturday after- noon when the Transporters take on Stephemson's Bruins in the first game of the North Toronto League season at the stadium. The Bruins are said to be rug- ged on left-handers, but will likely have a load of trouble with the pair on the locak staff, Durston and Buttonshaw (both rookies). Durtson has a slid- aig curve that is re: pretty to watch, Among the right-handers out with the club this year are Mc- Tavish with a six won-one lost record during the regular season last year; Mroczek (4-2) and Gilbert (2-1). Ted Stone is the lone rookie in this group. Curly Davies, coach of the Bruins, will have Steve Repchuk, his best pitcher (a leftie) and Purdy Newmarsh, tops among the right-handers to push at the big bats of thhe Transport- ers, Sluggers on this year's team for Mons. Willson are Ted O'Connor (.419), Brian McAl- lister (.378) John Jozkoski (.364) and Brian Coggins (.310). That, by the way, could constitute his starting infield. Course Jake Hastings, the hustling infielder from Milwaukee Sports of To- ronto, may have something to say about that. He may well be the shortstop choice since Coggins has been writing "Med" exams and isn't in top shape yet. The other big batters on the team are Frank Hooper, the slugging catcher from Bowman- ville, and Henry Sarnovsky. The former was terrific in scrim- mages before he injured his arm, and the latter paced the "Reds" to an inter-squad win over the "Blues" with a five-for six set-to, that included two singles, two triples and a home- run! Watch him. Vv Oshawa fight fans got their second taste of ring medicine last night at the Arena with an eight-bout show that went down rather well. There was only one point of dissention, and that didn't come as a result of a poor battle, but from a rather "homer" decision handed out by the ring officials. Tony Ptak's semi-final five- round win over Johnny Tuck was roundly booed, and accord- ing to our score-card, the fans were not too far out in their estimation of things. However, one must abide by those gentlemen who sit closer to the battle . . . and who are sup- posed to be able to tell more about which blows landed and which didn't, and which ones did the most damage. Denny Williams, as fast as ever in the matter of comebacks, gave everyone a '>ad of thrills as he rolled back in the fifth round of his fight with Hugh Lindsay of Toronto to score a split-decision victory. Again there might have been some question .about the out- come, but this time our card was with the judges . .. we felt the little hard-rock from Col- borne Street landed by far the heavier blows in most of the exchanges. rd te CHECKLETS--We hoid from a little boid (blonde variety) =--=TODAY'S WATCH THIS ADVT.
