' 34 'THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, Mey 29, 1962 i 4 i? ' PROOF OF THE PUDDING LIKELY WAS IN THE EATING They have a couple of say- ings in the sportsman's world --like, "Seeing Is Believing", or "The Proof of the Pudding Is in the Eating'--and vet- eran hunter J. P. Johnstone, of Walkerton, Ontario, seems to believe in both sayings. He had so many people ask to see the trophies he had bagged on his various hunting trips to the Yukon and Alaska, that he declared a "Trophy Day" and hung them outside his service station in Walkerton. Among his trophies are moose, dahl sheep, black bear, a couple of elk, moun- tain goat, ceribou, etc. --CP Wirephoto "SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR "Everything From Soup To Nuts' SOFTBALL, at about a half-dozen different levels, swings into 1962 activity here in this city, this week. As a matter of fact, it's early this week, Softball Association's Kiwanis Bantam League got going last night with all 14 teams in action on seven different fronts. Incidentally, the Kiwanis Minor reminded of the important meeting tonight at Simcoe Hall, 7.30 o'clock and EVERY TEAM on hand, Player certificates will be handed out at this meeting tonight and other important business will be discussed. Midget teams are also reminded that this meeting is for them also, to finalize territorial rights, receive certificates, etc. CITY AND DISTRICT softball has its official opening tonight at Alexandra Park at 6 ing doubleheaders every Tuesday and Thursday night at Alexandra Park, the first game sharp at 6.45 p.m. with no new inning to start after 8.00 p.m. sharp -- unless the score is tied. The second game will start at 8.15 p.m. sharp, which means that teams playing *s twin-bill will have to hold their "warm-up" somewhere other than on the main diamond. All four of last year's clubs are back in the local "Major in the second game of the night League" fold -- Heffering's I Tony's Vendors and Scugog Cleaners Juniors, In addition, Cobourg's "Brokers" are the fifth team in the league and should provide added interest to the season's competition. There has been several shake-u; ups and softball fans are going playing in different uniforms than they wore last year. It shapes up as a very interesting season and no doubt the crowds will be better than ever Parks Dept. staff have erected new fence around the big softbal diamond and the fans will not only be protected-- but the diamond will also be kept free for the players.

Lewis, up from Tulsa, has a batting average of a feeble .196 but he has been delivering some timely hits, including a couple in Monday night's 5-2 victory over Columbus Jets. The Crackers scored their first three runs on a walk, a bunt single and two Jet throw- ing erros. That was enough to win it. Lewis hit a homer in the sixth and a triple in the eighth. He scored the final run. on a sacrifice fly. In other. action, Buffalo Bi- sons, with nine runs in the first inning, humiliated Rochester Red Wings 15-4; Toronto Maple Leafs whipped Syracuse Chiefs, 5-3, and Jacksonville and Rich- mond split a doubleheader, the Suns winning the first, 1-0, and Crackers Rookie Pay Off A bases-loaded double by Ted Kazanski in the third inning was the big blow for the Leafs in their victory over the Chiefs. Jim Constable was the winner, although he needed help from Claude Raymond, who wound up pitching 3 2-3 innings of hit- less ball. Ruben Gomez tossed a seven- inning one hitter for the Suns in the opener for his fifth vic- toyr against no defeats. Until Pedro Gonzales led off the sev- enth with a single, Gomez had not allowed a batter to reach first. Dan Morejon's double drove in the winning run in the seventh. In the nightcap, Richmond made it emphatic by sending five runners across the plate in the first inning. John Cullen held the Suns to four hits in tossing the shutout. the Virginians the nightcap, 5-0. No fewer than 14 Bisons went to bat in the big nine-run out- burst against there Wing pitch- ers.

Big League's List Injured Players An All-Star Team NEW YORK (AP)=You could field a potent all-star team from baseball's growing hospital list --the 1962 "arnica and broken bones brigade." Veteran baseball men say they can't recall when so many top - name players have been knocked out of action by injur- jes and assorted ills as in the present season. If you could patch up all the cracked bones and smooth out all the torn muscles, the arnica all-star squad would stack up something like this: Outfield--Mickey Mantle, New York Yankees (muscular tear in right thigh); Al Kaline, Detroit (broken collar - bone); Minnie Minoso, St, Louis (skull frac- ture and broken wrist). First base--Joe Adcock, Mil- waukee (pitched nerve in back). Second base--Frank Bolling, Milwaukee (pneumonia). Third base--Gene Freese, Cin- cinnati (broken ankle). Shortstop--Ernie Banks, Chi- cago Cubs (hit on head by pitched ball). | Catcher--Earl Battey, Minne-| sota (split finger). | FINAL NIGHT NEW YORK (CP) -- Old- timers swear the ghosts of long-gone fighters were in St. Nicholas Arena Monday night for the last boxing card at the oldest, noisiest and zaniest fight pit in the United States The arena will be demol- ished to make way for a sky- scraper television office build- ing. Welterweights Stefan Redl and Tony Fortunato were fea- tured in the final go at the 56-year-old boxing club which has seen 30,000 battles, good, bad and just so-called. The 66-year-old structure on West 66th Street off Columbus Avenue in Manhattan was or- iginally built as New York's first hockey emporium and to this day boxing notables talked about "going over to the rink," It's been the scene of bowl- ing, ballroom dancing, roller skating, wrestling, dog shows, Communist rallies, Irish wakes, weddings, union meet- ings and bar metzvah gather- ings. Heavyweight champ Floyd LONG AGO EVENTS LIVE, OF ARENA Patterson was knocked off his pins at the St, Nick's early in his career by a gentleman named Jacaues Royer Creecy. Floyd got up to win the deci- sion and Creecy vanished into boxing oblivion. Sam Langford, the Nova Scotia-born Boston Tarbaby, demonstrated his method of mayhem at St. Nick's. as did Battling Jim Johnson, Jack Johnson, Sam McVey, Jess Willard, Jack Britton and Stan- ley Ketchell. So did Benny Leonard, the undefeated world lightweight champ who died of a heart ailment while referee- ing a bout there in 1947. Almost ag colorful as the fighters were the fans, just about as unrestrained a gang as could be found. Moms and dads settled quarrels in the balcony boxes. Enraged on- lookers sometimes put on a better fight than the boxers. Monday night, promoter Irv- ing Cohen distribuied 'last night at the St. Nick's Club" membership cards to the faithful who attended the non- televised bout. Pitchers--Whitey Ford, Yan- kees (shoulder), Frank Lary, Detroit (shoulder) and Luis Ar- royo, Yankees (strained left el- bow). This team would not lack for a bench. Other casualties in- clude Gus Triandos, Baltimore catcher (broken metacarpal joint on right forefinger); Jim Lemon, Minnesota outfielder (shoulder muscle); and Bob Al- lison, Minnesota outfielder (leg bruise). Ed Mathews, Milwaukee third baseman, Roberto Clemente, Pittsburgh outfielder, - Harvey Kuenn, San Francisco outfielder, Pete Richert, Los Angeles Dodg- ers pitcher, Lee Maye, Milwau- kee outfielder, Russ Nixon, Bos- ton catcher, and Gene Stephens, Kansas City outfielder, all have been out for varying periods with an assortment of ailments.

Not 42-year-old Early Wynn, who began his career in 1939, and 22 seasons, 651 games and 4,381 innings later is crank- ing his durable right arm for the final drive toward the 300- victory circle reached by only 13 major league pitchers. Coming back from a sore arm that sidelined him the last part of the 1961 campaign, Wynn has returned to the fir- ing line for the Chicago White Sox and Monday night came through with his best effort of! the season--a three-hit job that blanked Cleveland 2-0. It was the 295th triumph of a lengthy and distinguished. car- eer for Wynn, on record as the oldest active player in the ma- jors. The victory made his rec- ord for the year 3-3. Wynn retired 17 consecutive batters at one stretch, did not walk a man and faced only 29 mum, while posting his first shutout since he stopped the same Indians on Sept. 23, 1960. That gives him a career total of 47, tops among active Amer- ican League hurlers. The loss dropped the Indians into a tie for the first place with New York Yankees, rained out at Kansas City. Jim Bunn- ing allowed only three hits in Detroit's 5-1 decision over Bal- timore, Earl Wilson and Mike Fornieles of Boston combined for a three-hitter that shut out Minnesota 3-0 and Los Angeles Angels beat Washington 6-4. ENDS HURLING STREAK Wynn's 295th ended the amaz- ing pitching string put to- gether by Cleveland's 34-year- old ace. Dick Donovan. The veteran righthander had won all eight previous starts. Dono. van went the distance with an eight-hitter but the Indians couldn't do anything with men--just two over the mini- Wynn. But Can By JIM HACKLEMAN Associated Press Sports Writer Joey Jay and Harvey Haddix are paid their handsome salar- ies to pitch. But the big right hander and the slender south- paw aren't exactly helpless at the other end of the firing line --in the batter's box. Both proved that Monday night in acing a pair of Na- tional League clubs on the up- swing to victory. Jay banged a homer and two singles and drove across four runs as Cincinnati strengthened its hold on third place by win- ning its fifth in a row, 9-6 over Houston. Haddix threw a six-hitter and led Pittsburgh's offensive with three hits in the Pirates' 3-1 de- cision over St. Louis. The result left the Bucs, who've taken six of their last nine, just a half game back of the fourth-place Cardinals. BEATS SPAHN In the league's only other game, Glen Hobbie of the Chi- cago Cubs ended a personal 10- game losing string, downing Warren Spahn and the Milwau- kee Braves 2-1. Other NL clubs were not scheduled. The Reds jumped off early in winning the 13th of their last 16 starts. They rapped Dick Farrell for six hits and four runs in the first two innings, then Jay whacked a two-run single off John Anderson in the third, making it 6-0. Cincinnati iced it in the fifth by tagging Bob Tiefenauer for three runs, Jay, Haddix Pitch Also Hit with the score at 1-1 in the bot- tom of the seventh, Haddiz led off with a single and eventually came in with the clincher on Dick Groat's single. Roberto Clemente's hit later knocked in Groat. Haddix, who collected an- other single in the eighth, didn't allow a St, Louis hit until the fifth. Hobbie was 0-6 this season, 0-10 from last July and 0-9 against Milwaukee before best- ing Spahn and the Braves with his neat fourhitter Monday. The Cubs, also limited to four hits by Spahn, produced two Tuns in the fourth inning on a walk, Ron Santo's double, a sac- rifice fly and Andre Rodgers' single. Early Wynn Going Pitching Mark Wynn also drove in one of the White Sox runs, knocking in Mike a with a sev- enth inning single. Chicago's first run came in the fourth on a single by Jim Landis and Floyd Robinson's double. Bunning (5-2), accused of gashing the ball with his belt buckle in his last start a, the Orioles, blanked Baltimore until Russ Snyder led off the ninth with a homer. ayito accounted for the first Tigers' run with a rumproduc- ing double in the first inning, then clinched it with a two-run homer in the fifth. Wilson (2-1) limited the Twins to two hits before he ran into control trouble in the eighth, walked two men and was lifted in favor of Fornieles. Fornieles got Vic Power to ground into an inning-ending double play and allowed a harmless single in the ninth. Trailing 4-2, the Angels came up with four in the eighth to whip the Senators and Ray Ripplemeyer (0-1). Steve Bil- ko's sacrifice fly with the bases loaded scored one run, a pinch- hit single with the bases jammed by Tom Burgess put the Angels ahead 5-4 and a balk by Ripplemeyer wrapped it up.
