Pittsburgh and Detroit, two teams who were supposed to be pennant contenders, still are look- ing for their first: victory after losing their first five games.
The Pirates fell before Cincin- mati 10-5 in the only National League day game on Wednesday. Vada Pinson, Jerry Lynch and Ed Bailey hit home runs in the IG-hit attack on Bob Friend and bwo successors.
Detroit went 10 innings before bowing to Cleveland Indians who Won their fourth in-a-row, 2-1, on Woody Held’s third home run of the season.

Liston Stops Williams In 3rd
MIAMI BEACH, Fila. (AP) — Charles (Sonny) Liston of Phila- delphia hammered out a techni- cal knockout over Cleveland Wil- liams of Houston, Tex., Wednes- day night in the third round of a scheduled 10 - round nationally televised fight.
The end came in 2:04 of the - round after the gangling Williams had been floored twice.
Williams staggered to his feet | and Liston, who has now won 15 of 25 fights by knockout, moved in to finish it off. He flailed Wil- liams with both fists and the Texan went down on his back. He rolled over and got to his feet but Peerless ruled he had had enough.
Liston weighed 21242 and Wil- iams 210%.

Richard, who just about symbo- lizes Stanley Cup records, is iti danger of losing one of his most cherished *marks. But he’s still got a hatful of others.
Muscleman Marcel Bonin has emerged from the file of virtual unknowns to threaten the record of most goals in a Stanley Cup playoff year, held jointly by Ri- chard and Jean Beliveau gf Mont- real Canadiens. Both players scored 12 goals in one year of Playoffs.
So far Bonin has nine goals and with at least two more games to play the native of Montreal has a good chance to beat the record if he continues the pace he’s been setting.
RECORD PERFORMANCE
Since the Rocket set the record in the 1944 playoffs in nine games and Beliveau equalled it in 10 games during the 1956 playoffs, only Bernie Geoffrion of Montreal and the Rocket have come close to tying it.
Geoffrion scored 11 goal’ two years ago while Richard, re ‘urning from a severe skate ‘ash just before the playoffs, also scored 11 last year.
As for the Rocket's other rec- ords, he probably has little to worry about.
He either holds by himself or

shares with other players 13 Stanley Cup records.
Among them are most goals in playoff competition, 81, and most points, 122. His nearest rivals in the two departments are Geof- frion with 48 goals and Geoffrion and Ted Lindsay of Chicago with 9 points each.
REGAINS RECORD
Richard, who missed the Chi- cago-Montreal series because of a broken ankle, lost one record but regained it in the first two games of the final series, Lind- say passed him for most playoff games, playing his 122nd in the final Montreal-Chicago game. Ri- chard played in his 124th Tues- day night here against Leafs.
While Bonin drew the raves as the goal scorer this year Mont- real defenceman Doug Harvey quietly knocked Gordie Howe’s record of most assists in a career out of the books. The Red Wing right winger, who ranks second to Richard in* goal scoring in NHL history, had 48 assists after last season,
Harvey gained credit for nine assists in the nine games he’s played so far to run his 11-year career total to 56.

The Change Comes Next Monday
As the “Favorite Paper in Homes of the Whole Province,” The Guardian is taking steps to become an easier-to-read newspaper for its audience of some 60,000 readers in almost 15,000 across-the-Island homes. Several familiar departments will appear in new locations and be made easier to find with brightened presenta-.

All main items of late Island news, as gathered by The Guardian’s news bureaus in Summerside, Montague, Alberton and Souris and its corps of correspondents will be featured in future on pages close to the front of the paper.
- Pages two and three are to give their principal emphasis to provincial news — will become Provincial News Pages. This means that late reports from the East (Kings County), the West (Prince County) and Central (Queens County) are all to be grouped on the two facing pages, so geaders in all districts will find it easier to share news of common interest.
Page five is to become the main City News base

All the various kinds of notices and announcements that have in the past been scattered through three or four different pages are to be brought together ir new departments on “the page everybody reads” — right beside the classified advertising
As in the past, they’ll be grouped by districts, so the reader from Prince County, or Queens or Kings, will be able to turn at once to the announcements that interest him most.
But there’ll be no more turning from page to page to locate notices from different districts. attention of the entire readership of The Guardian, even while being addressed particularly to a special audience within one

Under the new plan, the principal presentation of Island and city news, which has previously been spread through the whole paper, will be concentrated in the first five pages.
Of course every page of The Guardian will continue to be packed with good reading. But it will be made easier for every reader to turn at once to the news that interests him most.
As in the past, The Guardian will present the Island's whole news story—a province-wide news report that is unmatched anywhere. The chief change is to be in presentation, as a means of serving readers better.
This means that announcements are te be made of much more value to those who insert them, at the same time they are made of increased service, and easier to find, for readers.
Notices of the kind that now appear under the headings of “Eastern Guardian,” “Western Guardian” and “City and Cen- tral” will be grouped in a new department devoted to “Ammounce- ments”.
Notices dealing with “Coming Events” will be brought to- gether in a similar grouping.
All notices relating to births, deaths and marriages for the whole Island also will appear in future in. the colemms adjoining “the page everybody reads” — the classified advertising section

At first the new locations being given to across-thetsland news and announce- ments, starting next Monday, are likely to seem strange to many readers who turn to former lotations through force of habit. But soon every reader will find that the new presentation makes The Guardian easier to read — improves its ser- vices as the “Favorite Paper in Homes of the Whole Province.”
