Campbell SPORTS EDITOR yesterday with the jubilant fans TORONTO LEAFS opened their home season loud huzzas or whatever one calls that = sound make when the home team comes through with a sensational 11th- s inning victory on opening day--to climax a game that had had a little of everything that makes baseball so popular. A weird triple- play, one in which Toronto actually made four putouts (the same _ player twice) and then got a legitimate third out--due to a base- running lapse by a Virginian, was only one of the game's high- lights. Loren Babe was the big hero of the day. He launched the triple-killing, he had three hits and the big one came in the 1ith, to drive home the winning run for a 3-2 victory--and Leafs were leading 2-1 going into the 9th but Richmond tied it up. They had 12 thousand-odd on hand, which wasn't a bad turnout for a Thurs- day afternoon. Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club have decided to leave the future of their Junior hockey team in the hands of their execu- tive vice-pres. Frank Selke--and what better place ? They may end up playing in Montreal next winter or it could be they'll be in any one of several cities who would welcome them mely Sudbury, Otiawa, Peterba gh, Galt, Sault Ste. Marie, . Thomas, Welland, Niagara Falls and Collingwood. This las! Pinter's Stanley Cup champions boast a long list of graduates om Quebec jumior hockey ranks--Jacques Plante, Guy Talbot, Pollard St. Laurent, Dickie Moore, Boom Boom Geoffrion, Jean Beliveau, Claude Provost, the Richard brothers, Don Marshall, Jackie Leclair, Doug. Harvey and Ken Mosdell are a few stars who came up from the kid leagues. BILL ALLEN, the left-hander who pitched Inter-County base- pall for Kitchener Panthers previously, has been given an OK. to commute from St. Kitts and play with the K-W Dutchmen this summer. At the I-C meeting on Sunday, the teams reconsidered their previous ideas with regard to using Junior players. The teams must dress 12 players for each game but the use of Junior players _ will not be mandatory, although of course, where and when pos- sible, Junior players will be given a chance, as long as their own elub does not object. In the meantime, the matter of umpires and their fees is still unsettled. The I-C Umpires Assoc. wanted $15 and $11 for two men; $13, $10 and $7 for three men plus 10 cent mileage for all three. The ball clubs figure this a little too high and have suggested $12 and $8 for two men; $11, $8 and $6 for three men and 10 cent mileage for one car. If the argument is not settled----the clubs have a plan to hire their own umpires. Johnny Landy, Australian schoolteacher, who will race in Los Angeles tomorrow in a special mile race, eased ip on his training yesterday, to rest his legs. Landy is accustomed to running on dirt tracks or grass and he has found the cinder track in Memorial Coliseum very hard. Tremendous interest has been shown in the race and the Los Angeles folk have gone all-out to make the great miler welcome. He, in 'turn, has promised to do his best to break the four-minute mark in his first appearance in U.S. but warns at the same time, that change of climate as well as other conditions, may not permit him to succeed in his attempt.
