For Mr. Gagnon, opening the season in Quebec's oldest and possibly finest Quebec game reserve -- Laurentide was ed in 1804--has always been a pleasant task. He has superintendent of parks. Early this year he was pro- | moted to the rank of assistant deputy minister, recognition of the administrative contribution § he has made to the game and fisheries department, for which he has earned wide respect. EXPERT AT CASTING But it is when Mr, Gagnon sets up his flyrod and starts to cast that respect turns to ad- miration and amazement, ""He's the finest," say the on- lookers when he feathers out his left-handed cast to where the fish always seem to lie. He casts a fly 100 feet with an ease and accuracy that have won him international acclaim. He admits, however, that the long-distance cast is little use in catching fish. "The best cast is about 45 feet, delicate and almost effort- less. The fly drops to the water like a real insect. There is too much power in the long-distance cast. The fly whips into the water like a stone." Mr. Gagnon says the real] angler goes through three 8 shah stages: 1. Love of catching fish) That he quickly progressed to for the sake of catching fish; 2.| Playing fish for the sport of it; 3. Going after fish no one else seems to be able to get. | the third stage is evident. He d {caught his first speckled at 10 after buying a Paramachene| he chuckled. through with a spectacular win, To hose who know Mr. Gagnon chiefly as an expert fly- caster, the finest of fishing companions and guide to such famous men as Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, the late Franklin Delano Roose- velt and well-known anglers including Rex Beach, John Alden Knight and Ray Berg- man, his recent appointment came as something of a sur- prise. But close friends recognize it as a wellearned promotion, perhaps the culmination of a career of service to con- servation. With L. A. Richard, the dep- uty minister, and the ldte Charles Fremont, Mr. Gagnon has been one of the moving spirits behind opening of the Gaspe Peninsula Park, Mont Tremblant Park, the Chibou- gamau and Mistassini pre- serves. Mount Orford in the Eastern Townships, with its facilities for art festivals and sports compe- jitions, has been one of his pet projects. Working with the parks serv- ices, he organized such fishing camps as Hell's Gates, Les Ecorces and Le Portage. He planned camping areas provid- to capture The F. M. VanWag- ner Trophy. Competing against some of the best senior interscholastic run. ners in the province, the OCVI team, thanks to excellent track conditions and ideal weather, clipped three seconds off their own best time, to run the mile distance in 3 mins: 47 secs, While the excellent time failed to eclipse the existing record, it was the second-best in the history of the mile medley event and the best time made by any winners in the past five years. The Oshawa OCVI team con- sists of quarter-miler Chris Chayter, two 220-yd. runners, John Barlow and Brian Tunni- cliffe and half-miler Bruce Woods. The feat of winning against top senior opposition is made more noteworthy by the fact that Chaytor and Tunni- cliffe are still eligible for Jun- ior-age ranks, Windsor Schools Sweep Badminton LONDON, Ont.

Sanders had a closing par 70 that gave him 281 for 72 holes and first money of $7,000. Gene Littler, who led the tournament going into the last nine holes, fell out of contention as did Palmer, failing to make the whirlwind close - out. for which he has become noted.

RA 3-3474 GOLFER STARTED IT * South Africa To Drop Its Sports Color Bar JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -Ireland this summer, there willl Mathews, Mil., The first chink in the armor of South African apartheid was made with a golf club and now the "whole of South Africa's sports world is preparing to drop the color bar--at least for teams playing overseas. The apartheid barrier first was broken by Indian golfer Sewsunker Sewgolum when he played in the South African Open in March. There could scarcely have been a more unorthodox per- former to make the break-| through. Sewgolum is a natural left-hander who swings right- handed but with a cross-handed grip. Despite this handicap, he is the Dutch Open champion. When he was allowed to play here, the South African govern- ment said no precedent was being set. But apparently it was. Now the South African Ama- feur Boxing Association has dropped part of its color bar. When it sends a team to box in Rudy Schulze's Perfect Score Beats Champ WHITBY (CP)~--Rudy Schulze of Norwich shot 780 out of a possible 800 points to defeat Gerry Ouellette of Deep River, former world champion and Ca- nadian gold medallist, at the Metropolitan Toronto Sporting Rifle Association's meet Sun- day. Schulze produced a perfect score of 400 in the prone posi- tion, compared with Ouellette's 391, to win a total of five out of eight matches. Ouellette, who won the world championship at Moscow in 1958 and the gold medal for Canada at the Pan American Games at Chicago last year, shot an aggregate 769 Sunday. be at least two non-white Box- ers going along.

David Samaai, a col- ored tennis player, has ap- peared regularly at Wimbledon, but he has not been allowed into South African tournaments. Even the complications of cricket have been mastered by colored South Africans. One, Basil d'Oliviera, a colored fast bowler, played last season in England in the Lancashire League. Sending athletes like d'Oli- viera and Samaal overseas to represent South Africa is fairly simple. The big problem comes in having them play in South Africa where apartheid keeps the races apart both socially and in sports. Advocates of "mixed" sports, encouraged by Sewgo- lum's breakthrough, now are looking to see what will happen when Samaai seeks to play in the South African champion- ships. ping apartheid for South African, .; » MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS National League AB RHP 06 22 36 .375 94 17 35 372 Clemente, Pitts. 104 15 38 .365 Virdon, Pitts. 82 22 29 .354 Cunningham, StL 83 16 29 ,349 Runs -- Moon, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh and Mays, San Francisco, 22.

The colt, ridden by Hedley Woodhouse, came home over the sloppy track 414 lengths in front of Up Scope. Hitting Away was clocked in 1:35 1-5, clipping one-fifth of a second from the Withers record set by John William last year. The winner paid $35.40, $16.90 and $11.20. At Balitmore, Dr. Miller had no more than a good workout in beating the two other start- ers in the prep for the Preak- ness. Dr. Miller finished 4% lengths ahead of Might is Right. At Camden, N.J., Might Fair, $55.40, had to pass every horse in the race in the last quarter- mile, but she did it to win the $29,700 Betsy Ross Stakes at Graden State by a nose.
