Picks Boston Braves For National Pennant ._
(By Whitney Martin)
NEW YORK. April 16—(A.P)— You might say it takes a brave man to do it. but we are trying W be strictly neutral when W6 Pick Boston Braves to win the NR- tlonal League pennant this year.
We realize the wisdom of the advice that it always is wise to stick with a champion until KB 1S defeated, but somehow we lust can't see Brooklyn Dodgers ropes-- ing. It's hard to build up s con- vincing case for s. team whose starting lineup still is c. mystery. even to its manager.
Anyway, here is the way W0 We the National League teams at the finish o! the season:
Boston. St. Louis, Brooklyn, Cin- cinnati. New York, Pittsburgh. Chi- cago, Philadelphia.
The Braves finished third last year. and they still have those two fine pitchers, Johnny Sain and Warren Spahn, in addition to :1 second baseman who might make all the difference in the world. Eddie Stanky is a winning ball player, despite his averages. And Billy Southworth can get more ult of e ball player than any manager we know.
We are a little apprehensive .r. picking St. Louis Cardinals for second. We think that they could win if every member of the start- ing lineup could play every game. but we aren't so sure of that.
After losing ll of their first l3 garnes last year. the Cards came back to play the best baseball m the league. This year. "Oh/Ever. ills ability of Marty Marion to stand the pace is questionable. The catch- ing is not first-class, and the pitching is problematical.
Basketball Playoffs" llerc Today
“Two masketballplayoff games are scheduled for the Prince of Wales Auditorium today when senior Saints and senior Prince o! Wales meet in the second game of their intercollegiate series and .2110 junior squads from the same two colleges clash in their second game for the junior intercollegiate title. Both games shape up as tum- ing into close-knit affairs through- out.
The senior clash takes place st 4.15 this afternoon with the junior games going on at 1 o'clock in the evening. Senior Saints hold a one game edge of P. W. C. in their series while junior Prince of Wales enjoy the some advantage over the university boys in the junior series.

down badly yesterday morning. This scribe knows oi one mill pool. and one only, that gave fishermen something to boast about. Any- where between 125 and 150 trout were taken from this pool in about a half hour yesterday morning. O O O
No fisherman caught over 18 with the average running from l0 to a dozen. I had the pleasure oi examining several crecls. They were a nice run of trout many of them oi’ the size o! gasperesu or fresh herring. One was caught in this pool alleged to weigh over l‘. lbs. by some \vhlie others, thought this trout would rurrcloser to the 3 pound mark. One large trout was taken at Ross‘s Mill pool weighing somewhere in the vicin- ity of two pounds.
I U U
Those iish, while not fresh run sea trout, were quite silvery and apparently had not been in fresh water very long. They commenced to bite just as dawn was breaking and furnished lively action for about a half hour. They stopped biting as suddenly as they had begun. I believe this characteristic featured most all pools this season. Close to 90 per cent of the trout. I checked yesterday were caught in the half hour preceedlng and iul- lowing day break. The water was clear early in the morning but deteriorated as the day advanced.
O O I
This scribe is of the opinion tbst the bulk of the trout that wlntered in our streams and mill ponds went out to sea during the heavy fresh- ets early in April. I know that there were a lot of trout, and big trout. at Milton late in March. They weren't there yesterday morning. A farmer who lives "ear Moore's bridge told me last night that the freshet on the Milton stream was the heaviest in l6 years. The water was running within a foot from the top oi the bridge. At one stage it was feared that the bridge would wash out. The flood did wash away one end of the Milton Angling Cois da.n Finnegan's Brook is another iish- lng spot that didn't furnish l0 pa; cent oithe trout it supplied ang- lers last year.
U I
Well boys there is this consola- tion. There wll] be more trout for later in the season when they will be fatter and better flavoured Some of the trout taken yesterday apparently left nothing to be de- sired. One fisherman who had a good feed of fried trout for his supper declared that they tickled his palate just like a feather and hit the right spot with a solid thump. I'll have to take his word for that for I haven't smacked my lips over one yet. . . 1 mean this year. By the way I haven't heard of any one falling dn yesterday but judging from reports there should have been more than one got a good ducking for not wsltlig for the opening gun.

Sport Shorts __ From Britain
By sHAUN MACQUILLAN Canadian Press Staff Writer
LQNDON, April l6 —(GP) -'1‘wo of Britain's leading boxing pro- moters are trying to rid ringsides of “certain elements" blamed tor creating disturbances st big fights by their betting activities.
Jack Solomons wrote 4.3 of his regular "patrons" telling them 7o keep away from his shows. if they persist i1 coming he threatens to get a court order to keep them out.
Another promoter. Harry Gwen- berg. has done the same. He says: “Warning them from the ring 11.15 apparently not checked them. S.) I have now informed all of them they will not be allowed at any o1 my promotions and if they dv appear. they will be removed irorr. the halls."
Solomons refused to comment on his action but said some oi the letters went to men who booed the
referees and shouted at boxers.
Writing in the News o! the World. George Harrison sslcl these moves will be welcomed by every sport fan. '
“Despite everything promoters have done in the past to prevent it." he said, "betting has been go- ing on in sn ever-increasing de- gree st London boxing shows.
“Somewhat naturally, it is not unknown for the gamblers, with their money at stake. to yell and storm out instructions to the fight- ers during the progress of contests in obvious attempts to influence the referee."
Maureen Gardner. 19. Britain's champion woman hurdles‘. is w make a third attempt in May to convince the Women's Amateur Athletic Association sbe has beaten the British 80 metres hurdles rec- ord of 11.8 seconds,
Her first attempt was disallowed because of a following wind, he: second because the track was four inches short.
Mrs. Dorette Neal. an official of the Midland Counties‘ W. A. A. A., said, “we shall do our very bust to make sure nothlug goes wrong this time."
