He followed with three curves to nip Hopp on a called third strike. Billy Martin and Gene Woodling fanned on sweeping hooks to retire the side.

"If he doesn't become one of ou pe test players I'll be badly When Pate speaks of tennis greatness he doesn't speak of Bill Tilden, Little Bill Johnston or any - stroking moderns -- Jack Kramer, Ted Schroeder or Pancho Segura. He speaks only of Budge, the tall Californian who ruled amateur and later | professional ranks in the late 'Budge undoubtedly was the Stoatest player I ever saw," Pate "4He had everything -- tremen- dous power, a great service, a fine net game, stamina and a bull- dog competitive spirit." TRABERT TRIBUTE "This young Trabert is the Budge type player," said Pate, who will matches. this weekend at Rye, N.Y. He never temporizes his strokes he is always bearing down, al- ways applying pressure to his op- ronent. He has what the boys to- day call the big game -- a strong carvice, powerful drives off both backhand and forehand and a de- cisive net game.

Dudley, secretary- manager of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, told Thursday how Canada's hockey representa- tive to the 1952 Olympic games was selected. Edmonton Mercurys were picked at a meeting of the association in Toronto July 28 to go to Oslo, Nor- way, next February. In a press release, Dudley said the deefding factor for the Edmon- ton club was its showing in the 1950 world championship games. Said Dudley: "The (association) officers feel that the Edmonton club knows just the kind of com- petition in waich it will be engaged and that it will be able to select the players of a calibre sufficient to meet such competition." He said applications had been re- ceived from St. Francis Xavier Uni- versity, Antigonish, N. §.; the Buf- faio Club, winnipeg; 'trail omoke Eaters; Noranda Copper Kings; Cornwall Falcons; Smiths Falls Rideaus, and the Edmonton Team SUCH CRUST QUALIFIES At Seattle, Danny Foster drove Such Crust to a Gold Cup race qua- lifying record of 93.34 miles an hour Tursday on Lake Washington.

Hurls No-Hitter For 8 Innings, Loses Game 1-0 Imagine pitching a no-hitter for eight innings, then losing the game 1-0 in the ninth! That's what happened to Tom Acker of Buffalo Bisons last night. The only consoling part of the de- feat is that he had no one to blame but himself, .. A double by Bill Gardner, two singles and a walk produced the run that gave the seventh-place Ottawa Giants the triumph' and in the process pulled them out of the Infernational League cellar. Harry Nicholas scattered five hits for his second triumph against three defeats. Springfield Cubs after getting out of the basement for one day, hit the bottom again by dropping a 6-2 decision to Syracuse Chiefs. Bob Keegan went all the way for the winners aided by an inside-the-park home run by Garden Gillenwater. In the other two contests the league -- leading Montreal Royals crushed Toronto 7-2 and Baltimore Orioles shaded Rochester Red Wings -3. Ross Grimsley had no trouble going the distance for the Royals. Primarily a relief pitcher, he was making his third start of the sea- son, Irv Medlinger was charged with the loss. Medlinger was lifted for a pinch- hitter in the sixth inning. Sonny Day, formerly of Winnipeg's Man- dak Laegue entry, relieved for the second straight night and gave up three hits in three innings. Third baseman Charlie White, another Winnipeg import, stood out in the Toronto infield and led Leaf hitters with two singles, one scoring the first Toronto run. Karl Drews of the Orioles had a close tussle with Jack Faszholz even though he struck out eight Red Wings to pull his league-leading total to 104. Faszholz only allowed five hits, but three were for extra hases including a home run by Mike Goliat. Davis Cup Team Should Top Cubans Montreal (CP) -- Canada's fa- vored Davis Cuppers today meet the Cubans in second -round singles matches of the North American zone tie. The Canadians are confi- dent -- and are odds -on favorites to win the best of five series in four matches. The Canadians also bid fair fo take honors as the best dressed team. They are to wear the new look in tennis togs -- all whites -- including tailor -made shirts and shorts, the latter two inches above the knee, But it will take more than style in cléthes to defeat the Cubans, who pit experience against youth. Assigned starters yesterday for Ca- nada were Vancouver's Lorne Main and Brendan Macken of Montreal, veterans of bitter defeats at the hands of the: Australian squad last year. Main meets 39-year-old Pepe Aguero, a seasoned veteran of 18 Davis Cup teams in the first match while Macken goes against Dr. Juan Weiss, Cuba's singles cham- pion, in the second. Henri Rochon of Montreal, Cana- da's third team miember, and Cuba's other players the youthful Orlando and Reynaldo Garrido, will view the matches from the sidelines. Rochon is expected to see action in the Saturday doubles match, ---- ------ LANGTO rp LEARN TO DRIVE A CAR The Safe Easy Way . .. In Dual Control Car! COMPLETE COURSE $20.

JOHNSON Canadian Press Staff Writer London -- Maxie Faulkner, the first homebred since 1948 fo win the British Open golf title, has been too busy cashing in on his newly-won laurels to bother about current or future competitive tour- naments. In fact it may be some time before the 34-year-old champion re-- turns to the professional circuit un- less tournament promoters indi- cate a willingness to recognize his title status by granting him ap- pearance money for playing. To show me he meant business, Faulkner withdrew from the 2000- guineas Harrogate tournament, one of the richest events of the sea- son, before hustling off to his home in the country. There he planned to rest up for a spell and sort out the tempting offers of stage, ra and television contracts as well as exhibition tours. He also plans to write a book on the finer points of the game. Maxie made it clear he was not{] adopting a prima donna stand just because he held the open title. He said he had long felt that every top-flight British professional should receive some inducement apart from a crack at the prize money, for appearing in any major tourament. He put the proposition to the Har- rogate officials, but when they gave him the brushoff he withdrew from, the field. His decision caused qtite a flurry as it was-the last tourna- ment before the selectors nominat- ed the team. to represent Britain in the Ryder Cup match against the United States next November. Faulkner will be a member of the team, But Maxie has one date he iIn- tends to keep without fail--the Brit- isb match-play tourney at Maiden- head ir September, He is gunning for the double title. "I am an unattached profession- al and must make money some- how," he said. 'United States rank- ing golfers receive a fixed fee for competing in the more important events and I' should think my ap- parance in a tournament is worth $300. I believe other British golf professionals would adopt the same attitude if they won the champion- ship." Faulkner indicated that United States promoters were willing to pay for his appearance in their tournaments but not enough to in- duce him to make the trip, He said he had wired the Tam O'Shanter club in Chicago his read- iness to compete there for a pay- ment of $3000 plus expenses. They offered him $1000. "That just wasn't good enough," Faulkner said. "After I had paid my fare that would have left me with about $150 to meet the many other demands of tournament play." In the United States, he said, the Open title-holder, the PGA champion and the top money win- ner of the previous year receives a nominal payment for enterin any prize tournament. "It's high time something was done about the matter in this country," Maxie said. "I may have to carry the battle to a showdown but I think all the British profes- sionals will be behind me."

WOMEN GOLFERS TWO-THIRDS WAY "TOWARDS TITLES " Laval-sur-le-Lac. Que. (CP)--The doubleheader championships being waged simultaneously by Canadian lady golfers moved toward the two- third mark in one section today and the final in the other with a veteran showing the way. But crowding Mrs. A. B. Darling of Montreal Whitlock were more than half-a-dozen younger golfers, including her niece, from one to five strokes off the veteran's first 18-hole-round pace. In yesterday's opening round of the Canadian ladies close 54-hole championship, Mrs. Darling shot a one-over-par 78. It was the closest anyone could Some to Laval's par 77 in the field Pressing her aunt for the lead was Miss Daintry Chilsholm of Royal Montreal, 1951 Quebec ladies champion, with 79. These family-combination scores had a lot to do with Quebec's five- stroke lead in the inter-provineial team competition which ends today The aggregate medal score for Quebec's four-player team was 332. Ontario, winners last year, scored 337. Leading the defending team was Mrs. Nelson-J.
