A revolution in the shuttle and probably the biggest since the game started... Speaking of badminton starting, the fall season has opened in Oshawa at the spacious and com- griable 'rec' hall at the airport. Another change in playing rules this year will be that wood shots will be O.K. rather than faults as last year. This will be a boom to many of the bird chasers. Al- ready many players have started playing at the "rec" hall where badminton is played every Mon- day, Tuesday and Thursday eve- nings as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. "Preem" Whiteley, one of the city's outstanding athletes, is al- ready out playing. As you prob- ably know "Preem' was one of last year's men's doubles cham- plons. Kay Hopkins, a tennis champion in several fields, is also starting the season off at the airport. With the fall season now upon , badminton at the airport looms an important fall and winter activity. With players like the above and others of equally high calibre playing, a successful sea- son appears assured. The older and more experienced hands are always' glad to coach and assist the newcomers. Badminton is one of the fastest and most healthful winter sports played in this community today. It is enjoyed by folks of all ages and is one sport which can be fun right from the beginning. Anyone interested in playing the game, and wishing further information in Oshawa could cop- tact Ted Reed at 5-5595 or Murray Powell 3-8292 or by dropping in at the airport 'rec' hall any play- ing night. ' Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr. New York (AP) -- Rice Insti- tute, which has 1000 students and & 70,000-seat stadium, offers proof that it isn't just a football factory in the fact that seven members of the squad are on the Dean's list of superior students. . .That's quite a contrast to colleges where most of the gridder are on the dean's list of guys be watched -- and carned -- before they bust out of ool. . .Rice's specially bright ospect is Richard Chapman, a 6- foot-5, 214-pound sophomore tackle, who is something extra as a phy- sics student. . .And publicitor Bill Whitmore adds the comment: "They've got a $500,000 gadget here to fool around with atomic energy experiments of some sort, though I must admit the stadium is a lot better known." SERIES ECHO Al Cartwright, the Wilmington, Del., sports scribe, reports over- hearing this conversation between two other experts during the fianl game of the series. p. . "Hank Thompson leaves much to be de- sired in right field.". . ."Yeah, about the only thing he doesn't leave to be desired is Hartung." SHORTS AND SHELLS It probably wasn't with intention- al humor that Murray Goodman, the IBC tub-thumper, referred to [Rocky Marciano as "'a finely chisel- ed, finished fistic product.". . .But you know how much chiseling takes place in the fight racket. . .Buddy Parker, the Detroit Lions' coach, has a pet superstition of always wearing a clean white, shirt while directing his team during games. Seek Compromise For Baseball's ~.// School Ruling Columbus, Ohio (AP) -- Base- ball's rigid rule against the sign- ing of high-school students headed toward a compromise today. George M. Trauman, president of the minor leagues, said definite progress toward a new regulation was made yesterday at a session of baseball and high-school men. The present agreement -- which expires Jan. 1 -- bars the sign- ing of a high-school player while he's in school, or before his class is graduated if he leaves school. School officials were reported willing to approve the signing of scholastic players who leave school for economic reasons or to enter industry -- with the ban remaining on those who stay in school. Baseball men.want to remove re- strictions against even contacting scholastic players. Trautman indicated some sort of compromise probably will be of fered in December. 300 MARK Twelve major league pitchers have won 300 or mort games, RING EARNINGS Jack Dempsey's ring earnings topped $3 million, * - Griffith Tells Evading Majors Reserve Clause Washington (AP) -- Clark Grif- fith, owner of the Washington Sen- ators, told congress yesterday he once violated baseball's controver- helped found the American League. But, Griffith said, he favors hang- ing the penalty on any player who does today what he did in 1901. The penalty now: The player wold be barred from the league for five years. The reserve clause, in effect, binds the player to stay with the team with which he first signs. Griffith was a star pitcher for the National League before he jumped to the new American Lea- gue in 1901. He said he feels his move was justified, because, he said, baseball was dying for want of competition. But the 82-year-old, and still vi- gorous, owner of the Washington Senators, supported: the reserve clause wholeheartedly, in spite of the way he flouted it 50 years ago. '""We can't have players jumping from one league to another," he said. "It would destroy baseball.) 12 KNOCKDOWNS New York -- Max Baer had to knock down Prima Carnera 12 times in 1934 before winning via the knockout routes sial reserve clause -- and thereby |- RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT There has been a lot of con- troversy raised by the recent introduction of the two-platoon system into Canadian football. Since it has been used by the Red Raiders here in Oshawa this year (they were the first club to use it in ORFU Inter- mediate play) the problems and the discussion over its merits and demerits have hit closer to home. : The main argument against its use is that it takes both a lot of men and a lot of money to equip clubs which are run in this manner. As you can see, with two platoons, the squad is much above the average size . . . naturally this takes a few more sets of uniforms. The supporters of its use, and Bob Cosgrove of the Raiders is one of these, declare that it al- lows more men to take an ac- tive part throughout the season, and that it provides those play- ers who aren't. triple-threat types with the opportunity of becoming specialists in, their pet . offensive or defensive move. To elucidate, a boy who plays well on pass defence, but couldn't skirt an end if he was chased by a man-eating lion and had a 40-ton truck clearing a path for him... well, this guy gets a chance to play, and to star, Course you could come back with . . . any fellow who plays football likes to play offensive- ly and defensively, its the body- contact that gives him a kick. To that we say . . . true. As you can see, the argument is already raging. It will probably rage tonight when the Raiders engage the Solly Cantor Whips McFats At Toronto Toronto (CP) -- Toronto's Solly Cantor today is looking for a crack at Montrealer Armand Savoie's Canadian lightweight boxing title following his convincing eight - round decision last night over hard-hitting Alan McFater, also of Toronto. Both fighters, who battled to a controversial draw exactly five weeks ago, weighed 138 %. Cantor fought a clever battle-and in the last four rounds kept: Mc- Fater from doing much damage. He repeatedly connected with a strong two-fisted attack which kept the 20-year-old McFater off bal- ance. MrcFater's best round was the fourth when he drew blood after a sharp left to Cantor's mou. In one of the preliminary bouts, Gordon Wallis of 2rantford scored a technical knockout over Al Combs of Philadelphia at the two minute mark of the second round. The match was scheduled for six rounds. Wallis weighed 164 % and © Combs 164. SCISSORED PLAN GREY CUP PARADE Toronto's Junior Board of Trade, intent on jealously guarding the Grey Cup final as Toronto's big | athletic prize, will stage a pre |game parade the morning. of the annual East-West football classic. Tentative plans were outlined yesterday by the 'Grey Cup Pa- rade" committee of the junior board. The specific idea of the parade will be . . . to show appreciation for the selection of Toronto as the site of the Grey Cup game' and stress its theme in the interests of "east-west relations and national unity." Tentative plans call for a parade which will include floats; school, service and military bands; cheer leaders and a special float carry- ing the Grey Cup.

Meade immediately announe- ed he would take the matter to the courts. The racing commission sald in its decisio 'hi'snparticip-a said in its decision "his participa- tion in racing 'would not be con- sistent with the public interest or with the best interests of racing generally."

Playing' for Lyndhurst Motors is a chap named George Say- liss. He's a former General. So is Gord Boniface who is playing: |, for Wilson Transport in the same loop. ! Brian McAllister, who played a lot of firstbase for the Trans- porters this year, is playing for Taylor Service Stores in that league. He played for the Osh- awa Bees you'll remember. The Bell A.

Sluce, Brennan, Singleton, and Bell You heard about the Oshawa Tennis Club's banquet the other evening . ./. how successful it was, how great a year it cele- brated, and all? It was a great year for two particular players. Cec Dodwell and Kay Hopkins, They made a a clean sweep of every trophy open to them. Cec won the men's singles, combined with Sam Barker to win the Men's Doubles and with Kay for the Mixed Doubles. Kay won the Mixed, as we mentioned above, the Ladies' Singles and teamed with Doro- thy Barker for the Ladies' Doub- les crown. Not bad, eh? Not bad for the Barker family either . . . the Mr. and Mrs, both got in on the silverware polishing fun over the next year. Syracuse, the new hockey team in the AHL held some of their workouts at Lindsay this year and .among their ts was former General Leo Curik. Coach Eddie Shore kept Leo around . .. he liked the way the fleet winger stuck to his check- ing and the way in which he notched the odd goal. .... Bob Rife, WEST TIGERS EKE FIRST WIN SOUTH WIL'CATS Last Saturday afternoon at Storie Park under clear sunny skies the West Area Tigers edged the South Area Wildcats 14-18 in the first game of the best 4%f 7 in the CRA Major Lacrosse play-offs, The defending champions, the Tigers, were lucky to win the first one as the Wildcats extended the West Area boys to the limit. : Both teams played fast, rough lacrosse as they spared no-one's feelings by handing out some bruis- ing checks. The crowd were kept on their feet throughout the game as play switched from one end of the box to the other. Copeland of the Tigers travelled from London, Ontario, to take part in Saturday's game. "Cope" is play- ing hockey there this season and just how many games he will be able to make is not known but you can het he will be back for the final game. Tempers flared in the last Stanza as numerous fights broke out and referee Bill Smith and Wes Ogden had their hands full. Probably the most amusing sight was when Bent and Boneham engaged in a fight. Referee Bill Smith ended up on the bottom of both players but managed to separate the boys. thing that was not so amazing, was that both boys received misconduct penalties. i Injuries were plentiful in the game as Don Craggs required stitches to close a cut over the eye. Mort Walsh also of the Tigers was taken to the Oshawa Clinic as he received seven stitches to close a wound on his head. It happened when Walsh was knocked into the boards on a terrific check. Just how long he will be out of action is not known. It is hoped by the Tiger fans that he will be back by the next game on Saturday afternoon. That game will be played at the home of the South Area Wildcats, Victory Park. Copeland and Short let the West Area club in scoring as they both notched 5 counters. Craggs netted 3 and Olmstead one marker. For the South, Marshall and Squash led in the scoring, both scoring four goals. Other scorers were: J, Marshall, Buck, Boneham and Lawrence. Mike Gallas played an outstand- ing game in the Wildcat net as he made some beautiful stops and was certainly a star. Stires also de- served a star with some fine check- ing. Fourteen penalties were hand- ed out in the game, three going to the West and eleven to the South.

Louis Continues Box Title Hunt Pompton Lakes, N.J. (AP) -- As long as either Jersey Joe Walcott or Ezzard Charles is, heavyweight champion, Joe Louis will keep chasing the golden crown. The Brown Bomber made that clear today as he resumed prac- tice for his Oct. 26 10-rounder with undefeated Rocky Marciano in Madison Square Garden. Asked how long he intends to keep fighting, Joe pounded his gloves together and said "as long as either Walcott or Charles is champion, I'm going to keep on chasing. "I don't know how long that's going to be, but I'll be waiting. I'm going to stick around while either one of them is champion. I can beat them. "Of course if some 23-year-old kid comes along and wins the title somehow, then I guess I'll have to call it quits," said Joe with a grin. "Cause then, by the time I get a shot, my grey beard will be hang- ing around my knees." © Louis was 87 May 13. Walcott turned 37 Jan. 31,gccording to the record books but there are many in the business who believe he is past 40.. Charles reached the 30 mark Jyly 20. Louis d ted Walcott in both their clashes and was badly beaten by Charles in their single meet- ing. That defeat still rankles. The old Bomber, hitting hard as ever with his left and still working on his once feared right NOTICE TO PRESS REPORTERS, BOWLING LEAGUE SECRETARIES 1.

Looking at the teams individu- ally, this is a summary of how they shape up. Connaught: Ralph Taylor has rounded together a fighting bunch of players. Most of last year's players are back and with the addition of a few newcomers, they look good. Jackson and Taylor lack condition but by the time the season opens they should be a big help on defence. Goal- keeping position is wide open with should either be the very first or the very last portion of your report. 8.

LEGION BOWLING LEAGUE Everyone seemed on their toes for our first day of league bowling. A number of teams were short of play- ers, but that didn't dampen the gen- eral enthusiasm. An election was held and our new president will be Archie Brown. Let us give him all our support for the coming year. The executive consists of Doug. Smart, Treas.; Ted Sanders, Secy.; Committee--Alec Reid, Pat Reid, Nancy McKay and Art Cocker. Would all. those that signed up, please be out next Sunday. The top triples for the day were Lefty Turner 716 (240, 213, 263). La- dies: Tess Kelly 672 (257, 252). Other high triples, gents: Jack Strank 705 (239, 217, 249), Buck Hobbs 702 (232, 244, 225), Archie Brown 686 (238, 243, 205), Shorty Davies 677 (211, 235, 231), Jim Lovell 632 (205, 267), Red Rose 631 (230, 213), George Haines 620 (261).

It is doubtful {if they will go far but watch out next year. Players are young and lack experience, but have lots of hustle. Radio: Not many players to -choose from; lack of experience made up by spirit; should provide opposition with trouble; Coach Goldsmith is in the process of i building his club. Vitcory: A fast well balanced club; should finish on top; lack defensive power; have added some of last year's Storie team; Fred Chasewski will cause opposition lots of trouble; may run up against same problem as last year--too many penalties; all in all it looks like Victory's year. Fernhill: Look spotty in practice but they have a good forward line; should finish about 3rd in stand- ing. Next Saturday, Sunnyside, Bathe, Valleyview; North Oshawa, and Thornton's Corners will hold their first practice. Rumor has it Valleyview and Sunnyside will have teams to beat. It looks like a great year for pee wee hockey and just what teams will be in the play-offs will not be known until the last minute.
