H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR verything From Soup To Nuts ALL OUTDOOR sports activity scheduled for last evening rained out but the showers ceased early in the evening and time of writing, Bruce McArthur, president of the Oshawa and District Softball Association, confirmed that he and his fellow officers were all set to proceed with their 8th Annual -Ontario Junior Softball Tournament, here at Alexandra Park today. By the time our teaders see this, the early round elimin- altons will have been completed, but just a reminder, the two big semi-final games are scheduled for 6:15 o'clock this evening. Not always, but in several of the past season's one or both of the semi-final games have proven more exciting than the final and produced better ball. However, the last couple of years have seen the final produce a bang-up climax a real thriller that tickled the huge crowd that always turns out for the final game. The tournament final game tonight is booked for 8:15 o'clock. Presentation of the huge City and District Trophy to the tournament champions, along with individual trophies to every player who takes part in the final game, will follow immediate after the final "out', along with the "draw" for the fine array of attendance prizes which have been arranged to en- tice the fans to show their monetary approval of the day's enter- tanment. -- So if you are reading this anytime prior to 8:15 o'clock--we suggest you like yourself to Alexandra Park to see the championship final of this year's tournament. It's bound to be a real thriler! 3 REMINDER ! If you are interested in the finer points of umpiring a softball game, or just want to know the rules, in order to coach or manage a team, or merely enjoy the game more thoroughly as a spectator, the "Umpire's Clinic' to- morrow afternoon at the CRA Hall on Gibb Street, starting at 2:00 o'clock, should be your piece of cake. This "school" should be a must for team managers, coaches and even players, as well as for those interested in becoming diamond officials. The "'rules" portion of Sunday afternoon's session will be strict- ly on softball, with Maxie Scheff, one of the best, in charge of this department. However,, there will also be a brief demonstra- tion of lessons on how to '"'score" a ball game. This portion By FRANK RATCLIFFE The value of one J. Davis to the Oshawa Green Gaels has, until now, been an abstract commodity. Granted, Johnny has long been considered by most to be the most brilliant gem in the Gael crown,. but there has never been a yard- stick with which to take accu- rate measurement, never a team of Davisless Gaels with which to compare. 'Shooter's' absence from the Oshawa bench for the last two games, and his return to the line-up for Monday night's cru- cial battle with Mimico Mounties, should pro- vide the answers to a lot of questions. Last Monday's home contest against Toronto Township PCO's must have started more than a few fans thinking Davis is not all that indispensable after all. Oshawa put on one of its sharpest performances of the season, (and that includes jthat 42-4 drubbing of the Guelph Mohawks), and whatever Davis wasn't around to do, Gaylord Powless and Kenny Thompson and Jimmy Higgs were there to do just as well. Had the players not been in the habit of wearing numbered sweaters, the absence of Mr. Davis might well have gone completely unnoticed. But Tuesday night's affair in Long Branch was a totally dif- ferent story. Although they should be of interest to both softball and baseball enthusi who are interested 'in keeping a simplfiied record of a ball ame, so that it can be readily understood, as to what actually appened -- if you were to look at the scorebook 50 years from flow.

SPORT FROM BRITAIN Henry Cooper Wants Shot Norman, Thomson | Lose Millar Play TORONTO CP) -- Rain played havoc with the field and three of the four favorites were washed out of the Millar Trophy Canadian match play golf championships Friday. Eliminated were two former tournament winners, 1963 champion Alvie Thompson of Toronto and 1964 champ Moe Norman of Barrie, along with Bob Panasiuk of Windsor, Ont., who was low professional in the Ontario Open two weeks ago. The only surviving favorite was Al Johnston of Montreal, just recovering from hepatitis which knocked him from the United States professional tour for the past year. Johnston was scheduled to meet five-foot-four Johnny Hen- rick of Markham, Ont., in one of the semi-finals slated today while veteran Murray' Tucker and Leon. Decaire, both of Tor- onto, were to square off in the other match. The finals were scheduled for this afternoon. |WAS GIANT KILLER Johnston, a three-year tour veteran before illness laid him low, was the giant killer Friday as he knocked off Thompson 1 | ped still another one last night At Cassius Clay's Crown By JIM CONWAY LONDON (CP) -- Henry Cooper has tied a string of heavyweight titles to his name in the last six years but there's only one boxing crown that really interests him -- Cassius Clay's world championship. And supporters of the 31- year-old Londoner don't think it a bit presumptuous of him to be seeking a title shot. After all, his Cockney fans remind you, Cooper's left hook (known among them as 'enry's 'ammer) dropped Clay for a few seconds in a bout a few years ago. And Clay's man- ager, Angelo Dundee, called it "the finest one-punch weapon in boxing." Cooper has had an up-and- down career since he turned professional in 1954. But of late it has been generally up, and that's why some fairly hard- headed observers are talking about a championship fight. He has had 42 fights in the last 11 years, winning 31, draw- ing one and losing 10. On suc- cessive occasions in 1957 he tried for. the Empire, British and European titles, fighting) champions Joe Bygraves, Inge- mar Johansson and Joe Er- skine. He lost each time.

But for the sparkling goal- tending of Merv Marshall, and the third-period play of Gaylord Powless while one or two Osh- awans were cooling off in the sin-bin, Long Branch was every bit as good as the winners. May- be better. It wouldn't be stretch- ing a point too far to say the Castros deserved the win. Witi Davis in the line-up, the score wauld almost certainly have been noticeably altered. Not only would his usually- brilliant offensive play have added to the Oshawa total, but what many fans unfortunately forget is that Davis is one of the finest checkers in the leagiic, and that would have lopped a goal or two off the Castrolite side' of the score- board. Now, with what ranks as their most critical contest of the campaign scheduled. for Mon- day, Green Gaels should con- sider tnemselves fortunate to have 'Shooter' back in the line- up. As the man said, the sea- son hinges on this one. They have shown what they can do, or can't do, without their star performer, and if the portrayal was accurate, the Gaels without Davis would have been no better than even money on the Mimico tilt. . . and that's giving Oshawa the home floor advantage. That being the case, we won- PAUL ROY Montreal Man Heads Oldest Sports Body MONTREAL -- Although he has never ridden in a_bicyle race in his life, Paul Roy, 36, of Montreal is president of the Canadian Wheelmen's Associa- tion, which claims to be Can- 'ago.

Photographers and painters can get the sailboat-with-light- house - in - background picture from scores of vantage points. Tourists can get their fill of the nautical atmosphere. But to deckhands of merch- ant ships the area resembles a gigantic obstacle course, and ferryboat travellers may won- der how the crossing is negoti- ated without a collision. Yachting is booming around the harbor's 30-mile perimeter. There now are about 1,000 sail- ing craft racing or cruising out of harbor coves, three times the number there were 20 years The craft range from 12-foot dinghies in the backyard from do-it-yourself plans through $500 Flying Juniors to $50,000-plus ocean - going yachts complete with modern depth - sounders and television.

Peterborough led 5-4 at the end of the first, and increased their lead to 8-5 at the end of 40 minutes.
