Roost By 5'; Games. , The cooled - off Chicago While Sox are all set to sizzle again. Why not? Aren't they shoving off today on a two-week swing of the east -- the land of free and plenty? New York, Boston, Washington and Philadelphia have been para- dise for the dazzling American League leaders. ° No wonder the White Sox look forward to their next 14 games with relish. They open the tour tomorrow night against the Sena- tors whom they've whipped five straight times and close June 2% in Boston against the Red Sox whom they've beaten six out of seven, The White Sox threw a scare into hometown fans by losing three straight to the Yankees during the week-end. A near - capacity Sunday crowd of 52,054 at Comiskey Park was resigned to a fourth straight loss when the Yankees zoomed into a 4-0 second game lead after win- ning a 2-1 opener. But the Sox came from behind twice to win the nightcap 11-7 and gain a split. Thus the Sox start east with a 2'2-game lead over the stubborn Yankees. The Red Sox took two games from Cleveland 9-6 and 8-2 to move into third place. They trail Chi- cago by 5% games. Detroit downed the Athletics twice in Philadelphia 11-7 and 9-5 while Washington and St. Louis split. The Browns won the first, 10-9 and the senators took the second 3-2. CLUBS SADDEN SAL Brooklyn retained its 5'%-game advantage in the National, dividing a pair with Pittsburgh. The Dod- gers eked out a 2-1 victory in the opener and Pirates took the 11-inn- ing nightcap 5-4. Two streaks were snapped as Chicago held the New York Giants even in a twin bill. After the Giants won the. first game 6-1 for their fifth in a row over Cricago, the Cubs came back to gain their first triumph over New York 7-3. They added insult , to injury by smashing Sal Maglie's * nine-game winning streak. St. Louis moved withing a point of the -second - place Cincinnati Reds, nipping the Braves in Bos- ton 5-4. The Reds, scheduled to play two in Philadelphia, were rained out. Handcuffed with seven hits by Eddie Lopat, in the opener, the White Sox hammered six Yankee pitchers for 14 hits in the nightcap. Lopat won his own game, sing- ling and eventually scoring on a fly by Gene Woodling in the eighth to snap a 1-1 tie. Saul Rogovin was the loser. Two dozen hits plus four errors by Cleveland shortstop Ray Boone helped the Red Sox beat the In- dians twice. Two miscues by Boorre accounted for five unearned Bosox runs in the opener in. which Dom DiMaggio clubbed five safeties for the winners. Ted Williams cracked a three-run homer, his 12th, in the nightcap. Al Rosen, Cleveland third base- man, suffered a broken nose when a badhop hit him in the sixth inning of the opener. It was the 11th time Rosen's nose has been broken. ALLOWS 18 HITS -- WINS Ned Garver absorbed his sever- est punishment of the year as Washington slugged him for 18 hits but he went the distance as St. Louis backed him to a 10-9 vie- tory. An 1l1th-inning homer by Gil Coan won the second game for Washington. The Tigers bombed seven Phila- delphia flingers for 26 hits includ- ing two homers by Dick Kryhoski and one apiece by Vic Wertz and Pat Mullin. Fred Hutchinson and Bob Cain were the victors. Ralph Kiner blasted two homers to lead the Pirates to a split with Brooklyn. His second and 15th of the season, came in the 11th of the nightcap with Pete Reiser on base. The Dodgers broke a 1-1 tie in the fourth of the opener when Jackie Robinson doubled and scor- ed on a single by Carl Furillo. Ralph Branca yielded six hits to best rookie Bob Friend for his fifth win against one loss. Four Giant homers by Alvin Dark Eddie Stanky, Wes Westrum and Don Mueller helped Larry Jansen coast to his sixth win as the right- hander spaced six Chicago hits in the first game. Bob Rush stopped 'the Giants in .the nightcap. Stan Musial lashed a triple and two singles to lead the Cards to victory: over the Braves,' ! USE OUR CONVENIENT BUDGET PLAN EQUIP YOUR CAR WITH MEW B. F. GOODRICH TIRES Ontario Senior Baseball Games Senior baseball activity in On- tario centred in northern and central leagues during 'the week- end as rain closed out three Inter- county league games in western Ontario. The bats boomed in Sudbury Sa- 'turday as Creighton Indians out- slugged Copper Cliff Redmen to win thefr Nickel Belt senior game 12-8. The Indians outhit their op- ponents 17-11 for their fifth win, Frood Tigers downed Coniston Red Sox 7-3 in Saturday's other Nickel Belt game, played in Conis- ton. Nick Wormington, Frood south- paw, gave a steady performance for his second wind. Belleville redmen took over sole leadership of the central Ontario senior loop with a 17-7 victory over Brockville in Belleville Saturday night. Johnny Dean smashed a 'bases - loaded home run in the eighth, and Sam Mulholland also homered to help the Redmen. The Viaduct major league had a busy Saturday in Oshawa and To- ronto with three games. Oshawa Merchants lost 11-8 to Toronto Staffords in Oshawa in the afternoon, and came back in To- ronto' at night to gain a second- place tie in the league, beating Kingsway Lumber 7-5. The after- noon game was clinazed with a three - run Stafford home run in the 13th inning by Billy Heyes. Crofton's downed Staffords 10-7 in Toronto Saturday night. Satur- day night's game at Peterborough between Petes and Kingsway ended after one inning when the Flood- lights failed. Fannin Pitches Toronto Leafs Into 5th Place Cliff Fannin, recently -released righthander from St. Louis Browns is wasting little time winning his way back to the majors. Sent down to Toronto of the In- ternational League, the 27-year-old pitcher missed by one hit of pitch- ing a no-run, no-hit game in his first start for the Leafs. A single by 'Charlie Teague to open the sixth inning was Spring- field's only hit. Fannin faced the minimum of 21 'batters in the seven-inning game as Toronto won 4-0. The Leafs also won the first game 12-0 to take undisputed pos- session of fifth place. Teague did not tarry on the base- paths long as Carmen Mauro, the next batter, hit into a double play. Fannin fanned seven and walked none. Before he was sent down, Fannin had a 0-3 record with the Browns. > Grover Bowers spearheadded a seven-hit attack for the Leafs, rap- ping a home run, triple and single. Irv Medlinger pitched a six-hitter for Leafs in the second game. Charley Grant drove in four runs with a double and homer. Buffalo barged into second place whipping the Ottawa Giants 7 - 3 and 2-1. The Bisons now have won six in a row. Rudy Minarcin yield- ed six hits for his fifth triumph as outfielder Archie Wilson sup- ported him with his 11th home run and a triple. Rookie Moe Savran- sky allowed only five hits in the nightcap. Wally Post homered with one on for both Buffalo runs in the afterpiece. Montreal divided a doubleheader with Baltimore but still paced the loop by 6%. games. Veteran Karl Drews beat the Royals 7-5 in the first game. Chris Van Cuyk won the second for Montreal 3-2. Anse Moore was -the big hitter for Bal- timore in the first game. He col- lected three for three including a grand-slam homer. SCISSORED SPORT (By The Canadjan Press) BOOSTS MacARTHUR The resignation oY Baseball Com- missioner A, B. 'Ha'ppy" Chandler "within the next few days," was prediced Sunday night by President Lou Perini of Boston Braves, Perini is. a, member of the four- man committee delegated to list possible successors for Chandler. "Have you a candidate in mind?" Perini was asked. "Yes," he replied. "Is it Gen. Douglas MacArthur?" "I can't answer that now," Peri- ni said. It is no secret, however, that Perini regards MacArthur as the most logical replacement for Chan- dler $65,0000-a-year baseball berth. DE BRUIN DECAMPS At Antwerp, Belgium, middle- weight champion Sugar Ray Rob- inson scored a technical knockout over Jan De Bruin Sunday when the Netherlander decided he'd had enough. He strolled out of the ring in the middle of the eighth round. A crowd of 8,000 in the Sports Palace gasped when de Bruin de- cided to take a walk in the sche- duled 10-round bout, He apparently did not like Robinson's easy treat- ment in the sixth round. Robin- son had de Bruil in a corner twice and when he could have finished the fight he stepped back and let de Bruin out. REGISTERS FREAK ACE Two holes in one, one of them a freak, occurred at St. George's Golf and Country Club, Toronto, during the weekend. Jack Ryder got a weird one when his tee shot on the 13th hole, cup. His partner, J. H. Moke, 200 yards, stopped inches from the whacked an almost identical drive, his ball striking Ryder's and knock- ing it into the cup. The other, of the more legiti- mate variety, was made by Dave | Wilson on the 145-yard sixth. He holed out .with a six-iron. SELKE WANTS COUTURE General Manager Frank Selke of Montreal Canadiens said Saturday he has offered a deal with Detroit Red Wings for Gerry Couture, rightwinger. Selke telegraphed General Man- ager Jack Adams the offers so as "to bring up the quota of French- Canadian talent." "I have no idea who Adams would want 'in exchange," said Selke. But if he is in a negotia- tion mood I'm willing to sit down and talk things over." COUNTERPOINT VICTOR Counterpoint, a speedy son of Count Fleet, shattered the Belmont Park track record Saturday -at New York in easily winning the Peter Pan Handicap, and jumped into contestion for the $100,000 'Belmont Overlooked by many of the crowd of 33,583, the chestnut three- year-old took command of the 1'5- mile event shortly after the straightening into the home high- way. The time of 1:47-4-5 broke the old standard of 1:48 1- -5, set in 1942 by Marriage. Battlefield, ridden by Eddie Ar- caro, was another 2; -lengths be- fore the early pace-setter, Green- tree Stable's Hall of Fame. KOVACS IN FINALS At Quebec, defending champion Frank Kovacs of Oakland, Calif, Sunday moved into the singles fin- al of the Canadian professional tennis championships, with a 10-8, 7-5, 6-2, victory over Frank Parker of Milwaukee, Wis, Kovacs now will meet top-seeded Pancho Sgura of Ecquador who eliminated Bobby Riggs of New York, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3. & 7d Rain cancelled the Oshawa Transporters game with New Toronto Silverts called for last Saturday night. The 'game, al- ready re-scheduled once, is now booked for Friday, June 22 at the Stadium. Another schedule change has been made . . . this time in the location of games. From this point on, all Sil- verts' home games will be plays ed at Eglinton Park in Toronto. The reason for this was ex- pressed very neatly by the New Toronto manager when we ask- ed if his diampfid wasn't in shape yet. Said he: "It was worse than a ploughed field when they started the stadium program & year ago . . . it's in worse condition right now." The locals' next home game takes place tonight at the Sta- dium when they meet North Toronto Bruins and their young left-handed thrower, Frank Repchick, The guy's a great pitcher . . . and he knows it. He's the only pitcher in the NTBA Junior League with a decision over the Transporters and he figures he'll make it two tonight. Repchick asked Ted O'Con- nor, captain of the Transport- ers, "How far is it to the left wall?" Intimating of course, that while pitching a win, he might also try for a homerun or two. . Would the Transportes like to beat the guy? . . . Silly ques- tion! \ Vv The All-Ontario Collegiate track and field meet held at Lake Couchiching on Saturday for COSSA teams. The TSSAA clubs from the Metropolitan part of Toronto did extremely well, and even made the strong Stamford C.I. entry from St. Catharines take a back seat. An interesting thing was the nice time for the 100-yard sprint. A fellow named Joyce from Hamilton Westdale C.1. won the final in 10 seconds flat, Oshawa's .top dash man, Bill Williams was defeated in a heat timed at 10:2 seconds. As we re- member it, very few local sprin- ters have made the 100 under 10:3. Chap named Pete Sutton cop- ped the quarter-mile event in the good time of 51 seconds . . . and he used a standing start! The way we heard it, this unorthodox form was to bring more area to bear as a target for the dive-bombing mosqui- toes that blanketed the meet. Evidently the scheme work- ed . . . the fellow moved faster than anyone else in the race. CHECKLETS--You of course noticed Jerry (I come from Kitchener) Creasy at the Sta- dium during Saturday's game between the Merchants and Staffords. He had a smile for everyone , . . we wonder if the reverse was true? We also won- der what the big reason was for the visit. He had the day off from the ball in the Inter- county and came down to see his old friends, sounds a little weak, wot? We hear that Bill McTavish goes back to GM Tech in Flint, Michigan shortly and that he'll be away for two months. He went off very well , . . but not' RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW onset says he'll come back on week- ends to play with the local iors, A big loss for the 'locals through the week we'd say . . . though it will allow the coach to get some more work out of the remainder of his staff in an ef-, fort to decide who to pare and who not to. . They are still talking about that last meetings between the Transporters and Peter Pans up in Toronto . . . and the fans can't wait for the next meeting between the two, which takes place on Eglinton Park Field Day, next Saturday afternoon. With only a game tonight against Bruins, one Friday against Silverts and that one Saturday afternoon against Pans, the Transporters have slowed their pace somewhat from that of the past week. Something for the local fans to look forward to though . . . next Saturday night, is a meet- ing between' the Transporters and the Merchants . , . without switching batteries as was done last year! Should be fun, eh? «so By Bob Rife. Sports Roundup New York (AP)-- The fight mob is having a lot of fun kidding around with the Louis-Savold tus- sle, with such tags as "the battle of the aged," the "middle - aged championship' and the "maturity stakes," but they have to take it seriously when Savold says: "Jim- my Braddock never owed. more to Corn Griffin than Iowe to Gino Buonvino." The parallel is too close... Re- member the Braddock story, how old-timer Jimmy came off the docks as a substitute, knocked out Griffin and went on to win the heavyweight title. Savold bounced and was bounced, around more in tank towns, fighting at county fairs, working his way up and go- ing down again. But he was just another fat heavyweight with an undistinguish- ed record when he and Manager Bill Daly heard that Joe Baksi had pulled out of his Garden fight with Buonvino. .. They headed down- town instead of toward a fight in Connecticut and Daly talked the powers into accepting Lee as a substitute. . . Savold came through with a 54-second knockout and was on his way DAY'S WORK Johnny Lindell the veteran form- er Yankee, recently pitched nine innings of the opening game of a doubleheader for Hollywood Stars in the Pacific. Coast League. He also batted fifth and helped win his own game by hitting a double and two singles, MONDAY MATINEE No horse which won the Hamble- tonian ever has sired a winner of the same buggy whip derby. Fulham Soccer Team Blanks B.C. All-Stars Vancouver (CP) -- Putting on the pressure after a scoreless first half, Britain's touring Fulham soc- cer team defeated the British Col- umbia All-Stars 2-0 Saturday be- fore 8000. The score, and the crowd, were the same as last Tuesday's game, when the first - division English League side toyed with the all- stars.

Oshawa took control of the game from the kick-off and kept the Eagles defence busy. Terry Kelly in particular gave them some enx- ious moments; half way through the first half he sent the ball crashing against thhe bar, McEwan was on the spot to catch the rebound and headed the ball home. Five minutes later Kelly made it two for Oshawa, Fulton sent over a perfect cross and Terry connected first time and dril- led the ball into the net. LARGE CONTROVERSY An incident happened a few min- utes later which caused a lot of controversy and gave the White Eagles their chance to play the game over again at a future date. Ref- eree Craig gave a short "peep" on his whistle but changed his mir and shouted "carry on", Johnny Kelly heard the whistle and be- lieving the ball to be dead picked it up. Craig, to the astonishment of players and spectators ruled that the ball was in play and awarded a penalty kick to the Torontonians who subsequently scored from' it. Half time, Oshawa 2, White Eagles "The unfortunate "handling" in- cident late in the first half seemed to unsettle the home side. The Eagles took advantage of this and put on the presure but good solid defence work by Honeyman, J. Kelly and Posodzski broke up any attempt the Torontonians made to get through to the Oshawa goal. It looked like the game .was safely put away on ice for Oshawa when Rawlins sent Scott off down the wing, Scott centered to Terry Kelly who made it 3-1 in Oshawa favor, but the Icoals werent through with bad breaks yet. During a raid on their goal an Oshawa defender fell the ball hit his outstretched hand and a penalty kick was awarded against them and once more it was |3 converted. OSHAWA'S TURN Then came Oshawa's turn, Mc- Cartny broke through on his own and with only one defender to beat was pulled down in the goal area, a penalty kick was awarded but the ball was shot wide. With everything going wrong for the Motor City Club it came as no surprise when in the closing stages of the game the visiting centre for- ward broke through on his own and placed a shot well out,of Suther- land's reach to tie the game up. Oshawa City played their best game of the season, their attack was powerful and the defence solid but' Lady Luck didn't favor them and they will have to do it all over again in Toronto, possibly next Sun- day.

KITTS A'S WIN OVER PETERBORO TIE FOR TOP SPOT St. Catharines Athletics and Pe- terborough Petes are tied for first place in the Ontario Lacrosse As- sociation senior series as a result of weekend activity in two fronts. The youthful Athletics, playing at home, defeated the Petes 19-11. The result left the two teams tied at the top of the league with five wins and two losses apiece. In the other scheduled game, at Brampton, Toronto West Yorks came through with a final-quarter drive to edge Brampton Excelsiors 16-15. The win left Toronto into a third place tie with the idle Mimico Mountaineers. Brampton is in se- cond place two points behind the leaders and two points ahead of Mimico and Toronto. Hamilton, with four points, is in sixth position and Fergus Thistles, with only one win in seven starts, are at the bottom of the league. St. Catharines led throughout the game with Petes. Score was 5-1 at the end of the first quarter, 10-4 at the half, and 14-7 at three- quarter time. Jimmy McMahon and Tony Da- mico topped the athletics scoring with four goals each. Bill Nelson, Doug Smith, Max Woolley and Don Frick had two goals each for the winners, Ken Croft, Don Moore and Bob Melville = were the other scorers. For Peterborough, Jerry Fitz- gerald, John O'Hearn, Arn Dugan and Russ Slater had two each, Dootch Vitarellia, Harry Whipper and Ike Hildebrand getting the others. At Brampton, West Yorks rapped in six unanswered goals in the last quarter to win the game. They trail- ed 15-10 at three-quarter time. Jack Kapasky paced the winners with three goals, including the win- ner in the last 30 seconds. Frank King, Frank Factor, Jack Howes, Bruce Webster and Jim McNulty got two each for Toronto. Cam Sheppard topped the Excel- siors with three goals. Gordie Steele, Bob Jilson and Al Garbutt SOUTHERN ONTARIO SOCCER LEAGUE SCORES British Imperials 3, Hamilton Castels 0 Hamilton U.
