MAY 25. 1950

The Curran dz Briggs baseball Roam opened the 1960 baseball sea- son suspiciously at their home diamond yesterday by defeating the R. C. A. F. Royals by a score of ,4 to 1.

Frances. the new shortstop of the Alrforce nine, the first man up in the game. hit me second ball pitch- od to him by Cecil Powell over the left field face for a home run and that was the end of scoring as far as the Airmen were con- eemed.

The construction crew got three of their tallies in the third frame Iwhen the Royals committed four errors, the only miscues chalked up against the R.C.A.F. durinz the entire game. Gordie Macxay started off the inning by getting to first on a bobble by third base- anan Benkie. Stewart hit one to the pitcher and Murphy's high throw pulled the first sacker off the bag giving Stewart a life. Henry Gallant singled to centre and when Gunner Cox juggled the ball the fleet Maclcay crossed the plate. Jimmie Grady was out- pitchpd to first and Bob Schurman -whiffed but Bennie Grady rolled on; to Benkle at third and the infielder got his second error of the inning, Stewart and Gallant scoring on his wild heave.

The C dc B boys added another run in the fifth on three consecu- tive base hits. With two out. Jim- mie Grady doubled to left. Paul Schurman, who relieved his broth- er Bob behind the plato. singled to centre, scoring Grady. Benny Grady hit a two-bagger to left. Bchurman pulling up at third and Byi Bernard grounded out to third to end the inning.

Frances led the Airforce attack with three hits in five trips. one of them a four-master. Paul schur- msn. still in Juvenile ranks. led the C. at 3. players with two him in two chances. Another juvenile. Gerard Dalton, also got into the itimelight by ending the ball game with a beautiful running catch of Rlchardts try for a Texas Leas- (uer behind second base. Alan stew- ert's perfect peg from centre field to the home plate to nip Cox in the second was another feature play of the game.

Keen Competition For British Amaieurfolf Title

ST. ANDREWS. Scotland. May 24 - (CP) - Big Bill Campbell -from West Virginia today smashed Willie 'I)umes.a's hopes of a second British amateur golf championship with an eagle three on the "finest hole in the world."

A beautiful drive on the 446- yard par-five 17th and a spectac- ular approach that left only a simple three-foot putt gave the 27-year-old Campbell a 3-and-l victory over the Elmsford. N. Y.. veteran.

The 17th. with sheds on one side and some of the most dangerous traps ever built on the other, is an almost-double dogleg.

It was late afternoon when Camp- bell and Tumesa started out on the last match of as played today. The sun had long dipped below the Scottish highlands when they fin- ished. '

The other Americans who air- vived today's third and fourth rounds to face the British con- tenders with a formidable array were Prank stranahan of Toledo. Ohio, Dick Chapman of Pinehurst, N.C.. and James B. Mcl-lale of Philadelphia. Ed Gravely of Rocky Mount. N. C.. and Bill Goodloe of Valdosta. Ga.

But the Britons are hy no means out of the hunt yet. Players of the calibre of Sam Maccready. the current title holder who is playing magnificent golf. are still there. with him are Joe can of Dublin. a Walker Cup player, and Dr. W. M. 0'Sullivan of Klllarney. who is new to big golf of this type.

The three have played such 5005 golf that they are recognized as among the sterner opposition the Americans are likely to encounter.

lkllsliztwl III l llllill

It was a big crowd that swarm- ed over the Market Square and Richmond Street last evening to witness the finishes of the annual six-mile road race and ten-mile bicycle race sponsored by the De- partment of Physical Fitness. With the temperature in the 70: it was a perfect night too. for such events. and the contestants gave every evidence that it was to their liking when they smashed boih time records set here last year in the same events.

0 C O I

Leading the field of five all along the course. young George Gallant of Shediac, N. 8.. romp:-d home the winner of the six-mile event to clip 17 seconds off last. year's time of 34 minutes and two seconds. set by the veteran run- ner. John Paul of Springhlll and Rocky Point. who trailed by Fl minute and 15 seconds to place second last night.

0 0 O I

Gallant. a really up and coming distance runner in the Maritimes. competed in the Boston (26-mile) Marathon earlier this season to place 20th in that feature sporting classic. Mr. S. R. Richard. his trainer and manager. was at the finish line to welcome his protege in a winner. and was mighty proud of his performance here last night. And well he might be. Gallant came in at the tape with a terrific sprint and looked fresh and untired despite the fact that he said after."I. am a. little tired."

The two local entries in (he race. Russell Doyle and Jack Hen- nessey. also ran a good race tn finish third and fourth respective- ly. and although they were con- siderably distanced by Gallant and Paul, finished strongly at the wire. Paul Belliveau of Moncion. was the last man to come in to place fifth. .bu: covered the route in admirably good shape.

But it tock Arthur King of West Kent School to really take a, big slice off last year's time in the 10-mile bike event. when the husky youngster pushed his char- iot over the long route in 28 min- utes and 55 seconds to lower the mark by seven minutes and 20 seconds and take top honors in the event. In fact he set a pace all the way that saw both the sec- ond and third place winners un- dershoot last season's time by bet- teq than six minutes.

0 O 0

t was a close race for second and third places with Roger Clark of Prince of wales college coming in 55 seconds behind King to only edge out third-place Byron Bruce of Queen square School by five seconds. Except for an accident. the race for the two positions might have been closer than that Arnold Mullins of 0.8.8. was right up with the leaders all aloniz the course and was running al- most neck and neck with Clark for second when he took a spill on the last. turn down to the finish line only about 100 yards BWEY.

Both boys were right together as they hit the turn from Grafton on to Market Street, and the space was so narrowed down by the crowd who were pushing out on the street to witness the finish. that Mullln's bike was upset and he was thrown to the pavement and was unable to continue, due to a. slightly injured. arm.

Why people can't stand back and give 3, teatant plenty of morn to perform for the enjoyment OI those same people, is something this writer can never understand. but that is nearly always the way it is. despite the hard wonking ef- forts of the police and officials to keep things in order. They can't watch everybody. however. and it is pretty tough when a. youncster won: his heart out pinning a hits over 10 weary miles. only to have . few thoughtless people won his chances of making mgood showing-

New Records Set In Road, Bicycle Races

Both of last year's records fell by the wayside last evening when George Gallant of shediac, N. B.. captured the six-mile running race with a sprinting finish to cover the distance in 33 minutes and 46 seconds. while Arthur King of West Kent school peddied his way to a victory in the 10-mile bicycle race in the record time of 28 min- utes and 35 seconds.

Gallant shaded last years win- ning time in the run by 1'1 seconds, while King clipped a liberal seven minutes and 20 seconds off the previous mark in the bike-riding event.

The meet, sponsored annually by the Department of Physical Fit- nes, was run off smoothly and efficiently by an excellent staff of presiding officials. and with the helpful co-operation of the City Police and R.C.M.P., was another great success this year with hun- dreds of citizens turning out to cheer the boys over the finish line.

John Paul of Springhill, N.S and Rocky Point, placed second in the running event just one min- ute and 15 seconds behind Gallant Paul captured the race honors here last year with a time of 34:02.

Completing the five-man fielo. Russell Doyle and Jlck Hennessey, both of Charlottetown. placed third and fourth respectively. while Paul Belliveau of Moncton finished fifth.

In a field of 11 starters in the bicycle race. Roger Clark of Prince of Wales finished second, 55 sec- onds short of the winning time. while Byron Bruce of Queen square School placed a very close third. a mere five seconds behind Clark.

Queen Square School was the winner of the special team prize in the bike race, donated by the Cor- coran Business Training studio, nosing out West Kent by one point.

Young Arnold Mullins of Queen square School had a tough break in the bike race when he collided with Clark while making the last turn onto Market Street just 100 yards from the finish line. Mullins was in third place at the time. but the crowd surging out on the street didn't give him enough clearance. and hit the back end of the other bike, throwing him into a spill that forced him from finishing the race due to a slightly injured elbow.

The finish point for both events was in front of the Patriot office on Richmond Street where, fol- lowing the conclusion of the ev- ents. Mr. George Francis made the presentation of prizes on behalf of the Department of Physical Fit- neu. The three winners of the running race were presented with silver trays while the first. second and third place winners of the bike race were the receivers of sil- ver trophies.
