WIESE REI (0 hed wd ADEN a THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1951 . SAVITT | RANKING U.S. No TENNIS PLAYER, 'sn WHO'D LIKE 70 ADD THE WIMBLEDON 777 7 Ks AUSTRALIAN HONORS, ONY D PLAYERS | d by Hing oe I or? iene ONSERVATION | ORNER --for Outdoor Sportsmen THE STORY OF "BILL" Temagami, Ont.--If, perchance, ha to be fishing on Lady andbon 0 in this area and you run across a five-or-six pound male bass around the dock at the rang- er station here," you'd better not hurt him. Because rangers, tough as they are, get pretty sentimental about parent bass which guard their nests and rear their young despite all the dangers which face such fish. This particular bass, known to the firefighting crew at Lady Ev- elyn ds Bill, appeared out of no- where weeks ago. With his broad tail--and it looks as wide as a kitchen table--he carefully clean- ed the flotsam and jetsam from a pard-wide area a few feet from the dock. In due course, his mate de- posited her eggs there and he fer- tilized them. Then, as bass will, he took up guard duty. He chased everything. The Rang- ers swear he nibbled a chunk off a pontoon of Al Sanderson's plane when it landed there with a load of grub one day. That may not be ouite true, but it is true that in future landings "Sandy" tied the plane up on the other side of the dock. : Bill-the-Bass was caught twice by the rangers, inadvertently. In the evening, they sometimes whirl a spoon out ard pick up a pickerel for supper. Despite the utmost ef~ fort to avoid the nest, the lake just didn't seem big enough to avoid Bill. Both times he was re- leased with tender care and return< ed to the water, where he prompt- ly headed back to his nest and re- sumed his duties. The fishing sea- son at Lady Evelyn dock was very short this year--after the second capture, the boys just stopped fish- ing. The cook sought the privilege of feeding Bill at regular intervals. But not even a cook can monop- olize such a pleasant chore. Bill was offered food three times a day by the cook and innumerable other times by the gang. Shartly before July 1, one of the rangers noticed thousands of black specks on the water around Bill's nest. They were moving. Just off a few feet, Bill was cruis- ing about in circles. His chest, they say, was greatly swollen. They estimate the number of sons and daughters at about 5,000, but only a small proportion will be raised to catchable size. Predators kill thou- sands of the young. But any pre- dator who comes around the dock at Lady Evelyn is assured of a warm time--not only from a party of rangers and a cook, but from Big Bill who, strangely. enough, is still guarding a now empty nest. BETTER WEATHER FORECASTS Toronto--Twenty weather report- ing stations of the Ontario Depart- ment of Lands and Forests will link up with the Federal Department of Transport on July 16 to provide this part of Canada with a more complete forecasting system--and rangers and forest fire fighters with a more detailed report on fire hazard. The stations are at Dacre, Ban- croft, Algonquin Park, Brent, Pakesley, Ardbeg, Gogama, Chap- leau, Biscotasing, Peshu Lake, Oba Hearst, Killala Lake, Pays Plat, John Barnum Heads Field All-American Chicago (AP) -- Little - known John Barnum today led a well- jumbled field into the second round of the $15,000 All-American pro golf tournament. Barnum, 39-year-old 220-pounder, yesterday swiped the spotlight from police - guarded Lloyd Mangrum with a sizzling 35-29--64 round, eight under par, for a three-stroke lead in the quest for a $2,250 top prize. Deadlocked for the runner- up spot were Jimy Demaret and youthful Fred Hawkins, each post- ing 67s. Barnum, from Edinburg, Texas, zoomed over the back nine yester- day one stroke better than the pre- vious course mark of 30, set by By- ron Nelson in 1945. Barnum used only 25 putts for his scorching tour of Tam's 6,915-yard layout. In all, 36 shooters bettered Tam"s 36-36--72 par yesterday. Among them was defending champion Bob- by Locke of South Africa, who was one of 17 pros scoring Tls. Bracketed four strokes off the pace at 68 were Chick Harbert, Skee Riegel, E. J. Harrison, Tommy Bolt and Fred Haas, Jr. Mangrum had a 70. In the All-American amateur, defending champion Frank Strana- han, of Toledo, Ohio, was six strokes in front after an opening 66, one stroke over Tam's simon-pure re- cord. The All-American women's open produced defending champion Babe Zaharias of Prairie View, Ill, and Beverley Hanson, of Pasadena, Calif, as the first-round leaders, tied at a feminine par-matching 76. Both are pros. Seven Senior Clubs _ At Hockey Meeting Held In Stratford Stratford (CP). _-- Seven senior Ontario Hockey Association teams were represented at a meeting here Thursday.

Merchants Topple Belleville in Listless Tilt Sam Mullholland and Willie Ford-#- Oshawa Merchants nosed out Belleville Redmen 7-5 last night here at Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium in an exhibition game that proved to be just that. Stan Miller went to the mound for the locals, his first starting as- signment for the Oshawa diamond of the season, and although he was nicked for 14 hits, he still had con- trol most of the way, chalking up 11 strikeouts and issuing only two free tickets. Three hits, all"singles, by Sam Mullholland, Dick Fitzpatrick and Vern Goyer, gave Belleville their first run in the third inning and Tommy Buchanan's long drive scor- ed Sam Mullholland in the 5th, Belleville loaded the bases in the 6th but couldn't click, then in the 7th inning, Vern Goyer opened with a double, Tommy Buchanan singled and Dean doubled, scoring later on a bobble, plus an outfield putout. The Redmen hit well all down the line but they left a lot of runners stranded on the bases, 13 in fact. FIVE ERRORS IN SUCCESSION In the 4th inning, Belleville's de- fensive play came apart at the seams. Huck Reeves errored on a grounder by Sherry Rowland thén Dick Fitzpatrick missed a pop-up by Morales. John Kitchen sacrificed nicely and another error put him on first. Barnes grounded to Tommy Buchanan at first and the latter's Mountie and 0.P.P. Make First Arrest Fort Erie Clean-Up Fort Erie, Ont. (CP) -- A re- tired Chicago business man is the first person to face criminal chatges as a result of investiga- tions of suspected fixing of horse races on Ontario tracks. Henry Dunn, 48, was arrested al Fort Erie track yesterday and charged with conspiracy to defraud | the public. A Mountie and two members of the Ontario Provincial Police picked him up as he presented 15 $10 tickets at the track wicket which pays off in United Slates currency. He appeared before a magistrate at Fort Erie yesterday and was remanded to next Wednesday, Me is in jail, so far unable to put "w J20.00 property or $10,000 oa Police declined to say Just haw Dunn enters the racing plotuie which has been marked by reporia of gamblers bribing Jockeys and racketeers taking bookies for thou sands of dollars on fixed races Previous to the arrest, »ix jockeys had been suspended or barred from racing in Ontario for life as a result of investigations by the Ontario Racing Commission, The commission, which has been interviewing a steady stream of jockeys, adjourned its hearing last night. Racing ends at Fort Erie today and the next Ontario meet is in Hamilton where the hearing will resume next Wednesday. The commission disclosed yester- day that has asked jockey Robert Wankmueller to return to Canada from his home in Newark, N.J. Wankmueller, who has been rid- ing on the Ontario circuit in re- cent years, went home shortly after the Fort Erie meet opened. He had been called by the U.S. Army to report from medical ex- amination. The commission reached him in Newark and he said he would be at next Wednesday's hearing. There was no indication why the commission wanted to see Wank- mueller. However, there have been indications that the commission in- tends to call before it every jockey who has ridden on Ontario tracks qualified for low blow in fourth round). : in recent months. throw to the plate was high and wide. Rope got a clean single to left, which was fumbled momentar- ily by Goyer and that concluded Oshawa's 4-run rally. They added one,on three hits in the 5th and two in the 6th when Rog. Wood tripled after Don Rope and pitcher Stan Miller had both connected for single hits. Merchants had less hits than the visitors but they made them count. Five errors in succession in the 4th inning gave Oshawa four unearned runs and put them out in front. Junior Transporters Will Play Merchants For Legion Benefit It will be of interest to Oshawa baseball fans to watch the Junior vs. Senior baseball game to be played on Wednesday, Aug. 8, at 8 p.m. It should be of interest to all baseball fans because in the future Oshawa Senior players will no doubt come from our Minor Leagues, therefore we should all turn out to give the boys a hand. Do not be too sure that the Juniors will not give them a good battle. Remember we have two players of Junior age that are playing Senior ball for Peterborough. | LAWN BOWLING Members of the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club who took part in the men's trebles tournament on the greens of the Bowmanville Club on Wednesday of this week made their presence felt, Although they did not win the Carter Family Trophy, Oshawa players won about every- thing else offered, The trophy was {won by Leo Rogers of Lindeay.
