WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1951 THE. DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW "ON SPORT All the junior baseball fans who missed last Monday's show- ing by the Transporters will get another glimpse of the boys be- fore play-offs when they play one of their few remaining games tonight at the Stadium against Stanton Fuels. The game is a four-pointer «+. + that one we mentioned some weeks back, which was rained out, A win means a lot to the Fuels crew, but as far as the locals are concerned, it will just be a chance to move far enough ahead of North Toronto Bruins 80 there'll be no doubt as to who won the league when the schedule winds-up. Bruins are continuing to win games and to creep just a little closer to the Transporters in these last days of the schedule. A semi-final play-off between the Transporters and Pans looks like a sure bet, while one be- tween Bruins and Silverts, an- other good het. And a final series between the locals and the Bruins seems in the cards too What a battle that would be! Let's hope our guys get by that first round series to get a crack at the Bruins. We imagine they can beat Pans in the semi's, if the club is at full strength, but with the GM holidays coming at the same time as the play- offs, the Transporters could be short a few key players. "We'll bring up some juven- iles," says the bossman. i Perhaps so, but a younger re- placement for a top player doesn't always fill even half the gap. Forming New Body For Track-Field In Maritime Area Halifax (CP) -- Track and field sports in the Maritimes may be in for a revival as a result of dis- solution of the Maritime Amateur Athletic Union. : The union, formed after the second world war with the inten- tion to interest itself in all sport, folded after president Harold Con- nolly, Nova Scotia's health minis- ter, told the annual meeting that amateur sport had almost ceased to exist. The union originally replaced the Maritime provinces branch of .. the Amateur Athleticc Union of Canada which had Been fighting a losing battle with hockey and base- ball interests and was recognized as an authority only in track and field. The new organization had about the same fate. The Maritime Ama- teur Hockey Association controlled hockey and various provincial or- ganizations had stepped into the baseball field. Briefly, nobody except track and field athletes paid any attention to the union. "Amateur sport as it exists in the Maritimes today is far from simon pure," he said. '"'Many tak- ing part are far from amateurs. They are receiving pay and still expect to be called amateurs." He said track and field appeared tp be the only sport still interested in amateur status. Alex (Halifax Chronicle-Herald) organization. "Track and field is a major sport," he wrote, "and should be completely autonomous. Too often, in the past, track and field has been handieapped by a traditional association with an organization which refused to go along with the times. "The belief is that the formation of a new organization devoted ex- clusively to track and field will go a long way to restoring the popu- larity of track and field sports throughout the Maritimes. "Knowing they have the backing of an association which is inter- ested only in track and field, the track and field men of the Mari- times can be expected to buckle down to serious training for the ~ Canadian Olympic trials next * year." CHECKLETS -- Football in- terest is getting a jolt in the arm these days. The workouts of the Raiders each Monday, Wednesday and Thursday even- ings at the old OTC grounds across the creek from the Sta- dium are drawing what Coach Bob Cosgrove calls, "A good turnout of prospective players. The executive members of the club are rushing the clubhouse to completion and shower facili- ties, lockers and the like are ex- pected to be completed by next Monday night. We have also been told to announce the fact that begin- ning with the next few days a regular record of practice atten- dance will be kept from which will be computed the least tardy of the Raider players. Some rather worthwhile prizes have been donated and the chaps who stick to a regular train- ing schedule will be the winners. Soon after the GM holiday period, a meeting for basketball officials . . . and persons who wish to become basketball of- ticials in the coming season will be called by Bill Smith of CRA. Fellows who come out to this meeting and the others that will likely fellow, are the ones who'll get assigned games in and around Oshawa in the coming cage season. As Bill said, "Tell them to watch the paper for further particulars." . + by Bob Rife. Rowing Crews Begin Arriving Henley Course Port Dalhousie (CP) -- United States and Canadian rowing crews began: arriving at tree-lined old Welland Canal today for the open- ing of the 1951 Royal Canadian Henley Regatta--69th in the history of Canadian rowing. The four-day classic continues Thursday and Friday with wind- up events slated for Saturday. No sooner had many of the crews arrived when the competitors began loosening up . for the big event later in the day. Among the first crews out was the St. Catharines rowing club, de- fending champions of the "point total" in the regatta. They have won top honors for the last two years, : The meet gets under way at 5:00 p.m. EDT, with the first and second heats of the 145-pound quarter- mile singles dash, followed by the first, second and third heats in the 145-pound fours. Other events 'scheduled for open- ing day are the high school singles, first and second heats in the jun- ior fours, first and second heats in the junior 155-pound fours, and the first, second and third heats in the junior singles. Rounding out the day's events in the mile dash, 145-pound single final. Also getting some practice, al- though they will not compete until the final day, was the St. Cath- arines Collegiate Institute's crew of eight, winners of the last two years of the Calder Cleland Memorial Cup. The cup, a $5,000 Omar Khayyam jug, which formerly belonged to Empress Eugenie -- wife of Na- poleon III--is ,awarded the best high school eight in the Henley re- gatta. It was donated by the late W. B. Cleland in memory of his son who was killed in the second world war. The 8t. Catharines collegiate crew will defend the cup against crews from Ecorse, Mich. and the De La Salle high school, Detroit. Also causing much speculation"is the championship singles on Satur- day. Jack Guest of Toronto Dons will meet Bob Williams, recent winner of the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen's singles championship at Worcester, Mass. Williams, of Hamilton Leanders, is favored to defeat Guest, who competed in the Diamond Sculls at the Royal Henléy in England and lost out to the European champion.

He had been on 3rd base twice prior to this, on errors each time and failed to score. Then Claus was safe on an outfield error, another outfield bobble gave Crawford a life then Trude came through with 'a homer, second of the inning, to complete the four-run rally.
