Wright, 11 Doug Ford Clips 11-Under-Par 61 In Warmup Round Toronto-- (CP) -- Doug Ford of Briar Cliffe, N.Y. basted out a sensational 1l-under-par 61 in a practice round Monday as he lim- bered up for the Canadian open golf championship. Ford, who placed third in the open last year, shot an amazing 28 on the outgoing nine on the |8- rugged Toronto Mississaugua Golf and Country Club. He had 12 bird- ies for the round. Par on the course is 36-36-72, The open gets under way Wednes- ay. : T. D. Thomas, 11 | Hetki Wins 11th For Toronto; Halts Cubs 7-2 Johnny Hetki, 28-year-old right- hander of Toronto Maple Leafs, is on the road back to the major leagues. Hetki, a 80-50 pitcher when with Cincinnati Reds is the International League's top winner. The veteran has compiled an im- pressive 11-5 record for the Leafs, in fifth place, 17 games behind the league-leading Montreal Royals Hetki won only 11 in little more than three seasons with the Reds beginning in 1945. He stands a good chance of winding up with 8t. Louis Browns who have a working agree- ment with the Leafs. Johnny posted his 11th victory yesterday as the Leafs swept a double - header from Springfield Cubs 7-2 and 4-3. He stopped the Cubs on eight hits in the first game. The Leafs snapped a 2-2 tie with two runs in the seventh and clinched it with three more in the eighth. Bobby Rhawn, who doubled and singled in the opener, won the se- cond game with a three-run, two- out homer in the last inning. Montreal split a double - header with runner - up Syracuse Chiefs winning the opener 1-0 but losing the nightcap 4-0. Bob Alexander blanked the Chief on four hits to gain his eighth vic- tory. Bobby Morgan drove in the lone run with a fly in the fourth. Dick Libby, making his first start, blanked the Royals on three safe- ties in the nightcap. The split en- abled the Royals to maintain their nine-game lead. Buffalo Bisons took a twin bill from the Ottawa Giants 2-1 in 11 innings and 5 - 3. Bob Wellman doubled home both runs in the first game. Archie Wilson socked a three-run homer, his 17th, in the fourth inning to launch the Bisons' drive in the nightcap. Ed Mierkowicz' eighth - inning homer enabled Rochester Red Wings to edge Baltimore Orioles 5-4. Lou Ortiz also homered for the Wings. Dickson Leads Bucs To Win; 10th of Season All Murry Dickson needs to be- come the first pitcher in 48 years to win 20 games for a last-place National League club is 10 more victories and the cooperation of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The last- place Buccaneers, of course, must remain in the cellar. The 33-year-old righthander not- | ched his 10th triumph last night, downing Chicago 7-2 to lead a large list of individual achieve- ments in an unusually active Mon- day of baseball. Here are some of last night's highlights as every club but De- troit and St. Louis Browns saw action: 1. A111 e Reynolds' scoreless i streak was snapped at 32 1-3 inn- ings and he walked his first batter in 37 2-s innings but he gave the New York Yankees a one-game Philadelphia Athletics, 14-5. It was Reynolds' sixth straight victory. 2. Cleveland catcher Jim Hegan | scored . all three runs as the In- dians nipped the Chicago White | Sox, 3-2 with the aid of Lou Brissie's perfect relief burling for 2 1-3 innings. 3. Rookie southpaw Leo Kiely, in his first big league start, pitch- | ed the third-place Boston Red Sox to a 5-2 victory over Washington as Vern Stephens hit his third big-league homer in spacious Grif- fith Stadium. The win cut Chicago's second-place margin to 2%. ganies. 4. Gil Hodges clouted his 25th h o m e r for Brooklyn to help Preacher Rowe beat Boston Braves 6-1, for the southpaw's 11th victory of the season. Hodges is one ahead of Babe Ruth's 1927 pace when the Bambino hit his record 60 homers. 5. Jim Hearn of the Giants whipped his Philadelphia "cousins" 4-3 for the 10th time in 11 decisions but he needed relief help from George Spencer as well as Bobby Thomson's 11th homer in the sixth inning with a man on base. It was the second straight day Thomson won a game with a homer. 6. Pete Castiglione batted in single, double and triple, and scor- ed twice to lead the Pirates to their 7-2 win over the Chicago Cubs. 7. Stan M u s 1 a 1 raised his league-leading batting mark to .370 which two singles and drove in two St. Louis runs as the Car- gig 1s downed the Cincinnati Reds A home run by Ranson Jackson with one on in the seventh ce- prived Dickson of a shutout but the little curveballér rang up his 10th win. Since Pittsburgh still has 87 games left of its Schedule. OSHAWA ARENA WRESTLING TUESDAY JULY 3rd 8:45 P.M. YUKON ERIC YUKON ERIC LORD ATHOL LAYTON CHIEF SONI WAR CLOUD Vs. NANJO SINGH PAT FLANAGAN VS. TOMMY O'TOOLE OSHAWA CITY WINS 4-3 OVER WHITE EAGLES Oshawa City and White Eagles took advantage of a blank weekend to play off their first round Camp- bell Cup-tie at Greenwood Park Toronto, Sunday afternoon. Despite threatening skies and the distant rumble of thunder a big crowd was on hand when Oshawa kicked off and it wasn't long before they had plenty to shout about. Bath goals had some narrow escapes as play swung from end to end. This was cup-tie football with all the trimmings. First one side then the other would make a mad rush up field only to be sent scurrying back again by some hefty kicking on the part of the opposing defend- ers. White Eagles opened the scoring when their inside right broke through and lobbed the ball over Sutherland's head into the net. Rawlins, the Oshawa inside right was indulging in some smart solo work hereabouts, on two occasions he outwitted the opposing defense but finished up by crashing the ball against the crossbar, once more he gained possession left the Torontian full backs wondering what had hit them, then slipped the ball neatly to 'Terry Kelly whose shot was a homer all the way. This seemed to be the signal for roughing it up a little, Harrison in particular being singled out for some hefty bodychecking, Jimmy who makes up for in courage what he lacks in stature set about re- leiving one of the Torontonians of his two front teeth but referee Ma~ sen gave im some fatherly advice so jimmy decided to take it out on the ball; from then on whenever he got his boot to it that innocent piece of leather didn't hit earth again until it had travelled some forty yards or more. Bnezneh put the White Eagles ahead again from a free kick but within a minute Oshawa had tied the game up when Taylor scored during a melee in the Toronto goal- mouth. Half-time Oshawa 2. White Eagle 2. The second half had just got un- der way when the storm broke, which had been threatening all af- ternoon broke loose. The game was held up for a few minutes but soc- cer players being made of hardy stuff, the teams decided to carry on despite the torrential rain, Nat- urally the pace slowed up con- siderably but the rain soaked ground seemed to be an advantage to the Oshawa side as they took a tight grip on the game and went in the lead for the first time by a goal from Rawlins. Howell who usually manages to get among the scorers put Oshawa two ahead when he first timed a pass from T. Kelly and beat the Eagles goalkeeper all the way. White Eagles made a desperate bid to get back in the ball game and Sutherland had some anxious moments. Bnezneh eventually beat Oshawa held to the lead. Rawlins and Morrison were out- standing for the locals, Morrison in particular being a tower of strength in the left half position, long range kicking served the dual surpose of keeping the ball away from his own goal area and at the same time feeding the forwards. Snead Battles Unknown Golfer In PGA Finals Oakmont, Pa.(CP)-- If anyone ever had a chance to write a fab- ulous finish to a Cinderella story in golf, 32-year-old Walter Burke- mo is the guy. : And the folks in Grosse Pointe, Mich., are rooting for him to take his putter in hand today and write it with a flourish. The strong - hearted blond. from Franklin, Mich., goes against the great Sam Snead, the par-busting West Virginian, in the 36 - hole finals for the 33rd professional golf championship. The startling angle is that the former army sergeant, winner of two purple hearts as the result of second world war wounds, be- lieves he has a good chance to win the title test over Oakmont's 6882 yards of heavily-trapped and treacherous terrain. The experts point to the fact that Snead, two-time winner and twice runner-up in the professional fix- ture, is 18 under par for 136 holes of match play over this rain-soaked course, while Burkemo has been forced into extra holes by three of five opponents and is 10 over the card for 147 holes. j In yesterday's semi-finals, Snead was six under par in whipping Charley Bassler of Catonsville, Md. 9 and 8, one of the most impres- sive showings in the history of the classic. Burkemo, two down with two to go against former tennis champion Ellsworth Vines, rallied to win the last two with a birdie and a par, and then copped the finals berth with a birdie on the first extra hole. : ONE MAN TEAM At Brantford, Fred Henry of To- ronto -scoréd four firsts and two seconds in seven events Sunday to win the all - round Canadian track bicycle championship. Henry won the 1.2 mile, one mile, 1000 - metre and 1000 - metre time trial events and came second in the one - third and half - mile races to finish well in front of Alan Essery of Oshawa who won the one -third and one - quarter mile races and came second in the half. $2000 DAILY DOUBLE The daily double at Scarborough Downs, Me., Monday paid $2001.60 for $2, largest such payoff in Maine racing history. Only two bettors bought the win- ning combination -- Cardan, an Argentine importation which re- turned $68 in the first race, and Royal Chap, which paid $15 in the second.

Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. Pittsburgh (AP) -- Bobby Feller | was the hero when he pitched his | third no - hit game for Cleve!~nd Sunday, but did anybody notice that Jim Hegan caught his third no- hitter at the same time?. . .There may be a connection. .Hegan, noted as one of the best men be- hind the plate in all baseball, was the receiver when Don Black earn- ed no - hit fame in 1947 and when Bob Lemon tossed his no - hitter in 1948. Now he has added Feller to the list. . .Manager Al Lopez, who caught more games than any- one else, never was on the receiv- ing of a hitless game. . .Lemon, Hegan's buddy since they played in Wilkes - Barre and his room- mate now, pointed to Jim when he was being congratulated on the job and ii "There's the guy that SPORTS BEFORE YOUR EYES Bob Hudson, who personally un- derwrote the 1947 Ryder Cup Mat- ches, will pick up the entire tab for the British Ryder Cup Team from the time it hits New York next fall until it reaches Pine- hurst, N. C., site of the Interna- tional matches. . .Ralph Kiner, the Pirates' home - run slugger, spent an afternoon off watching Sammy Snead hit a golf ball yesterday. . . Sam, after winning his semi -final, said he was going to the ball game last night. "I want to see Kiner hit one," Sam explained. British Open May Be Tough On Favorites Portrush, Northern Ireland (AP) Bobby Locke, Frank Stranahan and company go out for round two in their battle with the gale-like winds today in the qualifying round of the British open golf champion- ship. When the returns are in, the players with the 100 low scores in the two-day qualifying session will be set to tee off tomorrow in the business end of the tourney--the 72 holes that count. On the basis of yesterday's first qualifying round, there's going to be rough going. Even- Locke and Stranahan had their difficulties. Savitt Ousts Art Larsen At Wimbledon . Wimbledon, England (AP) There's nothing like a world tour to improve your tennis game says Dick Savitt, the new hero of Wimbledon. "I've been home only one week in the past year," Dick observed while resting before going into the semi-final round of the all- England championships tomorrow. "And be- lieve me, I've learned plenty in my tour of the world, especially in Australia." The 24-year-old Cornell graduate will meet Herbie Flam in one semi-final, a tot all y-unexpected match. Savitt eliminated American chapion Art Larsen of San Leandro Calif., 6-1, 6-4, 6-4, and Flam pol- ished off Australian star Frank Sedgman, 2-6, 1-6, 6-3, 64, 7-5, yesterday in the quarter-finals. The other semi-final wil send South Africa's Eric Sturgess a- gainst Ken McGregor, an Aussie Davis Cup mate of Sedgman's. Sturgess whipped Armando Vieira of Brazi, 6-2, 6-0, 6-3, while McGregor had a fight on his hands before prevailing over Lennart Bergelin of Sweden, 6-0, 4-6, 5-7, 6-2, 6-4,. The quarter-final of the women's division will be completed today and it could be that all four semi-finalists will be Americans. Defending champion Louise Brough plays Kay Stammers Tuck- ey of Britain, Shirley Fry meets Jean Walker-Smith of Britain, Doris Hart goes against Nancy Chaffee and Margeret Osborne Du Pont tangles with Beverly Baker. Locke could dao no better than a 38-3¢--72, one over par, while Stranahan posted a 36-38--74. Both played the Port Stewart course, about five miles from here. Those who tested Port Stewart yesterday will try their luck at Portrush to- day and vice-versa. Portrush will be used for the regular tourney. Norman von Nida of Australia and Tom Haliburton of London took the lead, each with three- under-par 68's. Two other Ameri- cans, Art Clark of Huntington, W.Va.,, and Al Zommerman of Portland, Ore., came home with the leaders. Clark had a 34-37--71 over the par 73 Portrush layout while Zimmerman compiled a 37- 36--73 at Port Stewart. Oshawa's Allan Essery Wins Fred Henry Dominates Bicycle Championships At Brantford With Oshawa Rider Provid- ing Sternest Opposi- tion. Tall, lean, 2l-year-old Fred Henry of Toronto, last Saturday lined up to expectations as he cap- tured the all-round Canadian track cycling championship at Brantford, winning four events and placing second in two others, The flashy Toronto boy started the day off with a victory in the 1000-metre time trial and looked to be well on his way to the title. At this point, a halt was called to Henry's winning ways, Alan Es- se - of Oshawa, riding in the form of a true champion, ground through two heats of the %-mile Dominion tile and then outsprinted Henry to the wire to capture the champion- ship. The 18-year-old Oshawa boy was so thrilled by his victory that he fell off his bicycle as he came to a stop. SECOND FOR ESSERY The 4-mile final came up with Henry still the favorite, but once again he was beaten by Essery, who passed the Toronto bc in the stretch to ruin his second championship in a row ty a length. From that point on, after a break ! for supper, Henry dominated the meet, winning the l4-mile, in which Essery was second, the 1-mile and the 1000-metre scratch race, He had to retire from the 5-mile with cramps and did not start in the 10- This UNION LABEL appears in every TIP TOP garment Two Canadian Bike Crowns mile event, both of which were won by riders from Montreal, Gaston Langlois and Andre Robert respec- tively. The paved 'i-mile track produced some very fast times, two of which were 1.1% for the %-mile and 11.21% for the 5-mile, Two of the disappointing riders of the meet were Eric Oland of Winnipeg, a member of last year's British Empire team, and Oshawa's Frank Ball, 1950 Canadian 25-mile champion. Both riders were highly favored but lost out by inches in the sprints. Oland picked up a third place in the mile while Ball won & special prize for his chasing and pacing effort in the 5-mile, Bobby Irwine was another Osh- awa boy who didn't make the win column but rode well in his heats on the strange track. HENRY ALL-ROUND WINNER The final tally showed Henry the all-round winner with 34 points, Essery, the only rider to beat Henry, took second with 17 points, while Gaston Langlois and Jean LaForest of Montreal tied for third with 12 points. The races will have a bearing on the choice of next year's Olympie team and Henry and Essery have already stamped themselves as strong contenders for a place on ! the squad.
