Drlllon. a Maritime hockey pro- duct, jumped from junior hockey into the big time ranks and starred with the Toronto Maple Leafs of the N.l-i L. for six years. during which time he was a leading scor- er of that League and a Lady Byng Trophy winner, and also per- fonrned with Montreal Canadicns for one season. Gordie has also had experience in the coaching game. having acted in that capac- ity in the Cape Breton Senior Hockey League. in Newfoundland hockey circles and also in this Province, Drillon has what it takes to carry off such a position. and many here will he wishing him the best of luck and success in his new undertaking '

South African Wins World Boxing 'Tille

JOHANNESBURG. South Africa. May 31 - (Reuters) - Vic Toweel, South African champion, tonight won the world bantamweight box- ing title by beating the tii1ehold- er. Manuel Ortiz. of California. on points over 15 rounds.

The South African weighed 116 pounds 12 ounces. Ortiz weighed 117 pounds two ounces.

It was only the 13th pro fight for Toweel. who won the British Empire llll-pound crown from Stan Rowan of England last No- vember.

The 33-year-old Ortiz had held the world title for nearly eight years except for a two-month per- iod in 1947. The California Mexi- can first gained the crown in 1942 when he beat Lou Salica. He lost it to Harold Dade Jan. 8, 1947. but won back the title from the Chi- cagoan two months later

Jockey Rae lohnslone New Toasl OI Brilain

LONDON, May all - (Reuters) - Rae (Snapper) Jchnstone. the jockey who couldn't et a ride here 16 years ago. was the toast of the turf world this week.

Critics couldn't find enough superlatives to commend the bril- liance with which he nursed home the non-staying Galcador in Sat- urday's Dcrby over Epsom Downs' 1-1-2 mile switchback course to gain a head decision from the American-bred and owned Prince Simon.

The applause was sweet music for 45-year-old Rae. He's known the sound of boos and Jeers as he rode back after losing the great- est of all English thoroughbred classics.

The anvil chorus was loudest in 1934 when Johnstone. up on Lord Glanely's Colombo - Two Thous- and Guineas victor and ll-to-8 Derby favorite -- was beaten into third place behind Windsor Lad and Easton.

The verdict was that Charlie Smirk on the winner and Gordon (The Champ) Richards on the second had given Johnstone a lesson in big-race tactics. He might have been a fair jockey in his native Australia, but when the chips were down in a big British event he just didn't rate among the lop-notchers, race-go- ers said.

Lord Glanely cancelled John- sione's retainer and a chsstened Rae went to.France where he twice topped the list of winning riders. but from where he made only occasional sorties to Britain.

But the wheel turned again. Brilish bloodstock became inferior during the war. French owners madn more and more frequent raids across the Channel and Johnstone was generally chosen to carry the Gallic colors in the English classics.

Len Phillips. this year's secre- tary of the Club. stated last night that many of the novelty tourna- ments held so successfully last sea- son, will be carried on again this year in "addition to the regular competitions. The novelty compu- titlons. such as "blackout pitch- ing".

Nothing Wrong With Pirales' Young Pitcher

BA.l..'I'l'MORE, May 3'1-( AP) - The worried Pittsburgh Pirates were assured that there's

the pitching arm of young Paul Pettit in whom they have 1100.000 invested.

That was about all the Pirates and Pottlt got out of Dr. George Bennett after a two-hour examina- tion. But it should be enough. since he told the 18-year-old southpaw he could go back to pitching.

"1'here's nothing wrong," Pettlt said the doctor told hlrn. "I'm to start throwing and lay off the curve ball until the arm gem bgg. far."

It -was after throwing a curve two weeks ago while pitching for New Orleans that his valuable soupbone began to ache "right on the elbow." the big California youngster said.

Fish & Game Ass'n Branch Formed Al Monlague

. . ' On Monday night, May 29, first meeting for the organizing of a Kings County Branch of the Fish and Game Protection As- sociation was held in the Legion Hall at Montague, with Mr. Stewart Jones. President of the Provincial Association, presiding. A very large representation of in-- terested sportsmen attended from many localities in the county.

Before the discussion took place a very interesting film. showing the releasing of chukker partridge. quail and pheasants was shown by Mr. Frank Acorn. This gave the audience an appreciation of the work now being done to increase and develop the upland game of P. E. I., and also the rising inter- est of the youth in game pro1Qc. tion.

Mr. Jones then outlined the pur- pose of the meeting. stating that it was his expectation that the formation of county branches would increase the interest in the Association. and consequently. give more support to future re- Commendations.

Mr. Harold Shaw. Queens County president. urged the for- mation of :1 branch in Kings County. stating that since its inr-

mation in Queens County, the membership had doubled. and went on to give In brief idea of

formation.

Mr. Dick Pound of Summerslde, gave a brief outline of the forma- tion and history of the Prince County branch, and urged a sim- ilar one for Kings County. r

Mr. Keir Clark. M. L. A.. brough to the attention of the meeting. that for the past few summers the Valleyfield stream has been Donated through the deposition of mud by the washing of gravel at the head of the stream. He stated that the fish, to a large extent. have by-passed) this stream as a spawning ground, and the actual fishing is very poor. It was of little use building hatcheries. if com- mercial projects such as this were permitted to ruin streams. and nothing could he done to prevent this continuing indefinitely. It was, furthermore. very unfortun- ate, that a solution to the mutual satisfaction of all could' not be worked out.

Mr. S. S. Hessian, K. C.. stated that the organization was pro-

ceeding in the right direction in forming county branches. and) that such a branch in Kings County was a necessity in order to look after its interests. and lend its support to provincial recom- mendatlons,

Mr. Russell MacDonald-, another sportsman who has been interest- ed in fish and game for many respect

the wishes of the farmer regard-

Last year his luck wasn't too in: his property while hunting

thereon.

Mr. Frank Acorn told the aud- icnce that the money used for developmcnt purposes. came from the sportsmen, and every attempt was made to develop fishing as well as up-land game, but that fishing improvements required considerable more work, He re- quested farmers to report any hunter who did not respect his property as he should. and steps would be taken to have the matter looked into.

Mr, Peter Mcbellan. Fisheries IMDGCIOT. stated that such an or- ganization would go far in devel- oping the fish and game of Kings County, and urged its formation.

Mr. Earl Inge, Fanmers' Federa- tion. urged that the children in the school should be taught, con. servatlon and protection, since they would be the sportsmen of the future.

ML H337 Webster, Dominion Wild Life service. stated that such organization detenmlned to a great extent. the setting of hunting and fishing dates. and other policies. and only the voice of A representative body might expect immediate consideration.

It was proposed that the presi- dent and secretary be chosen from one locality, the vlce-presl- dent from another, and twelve director: from other centres. The three officers and three directors would represent the county in the provincial executive, with each county president becoming a vice- presldont of the provincial exe- outive.

It was moved by Walter Beer and seconded by Keir Clark that s Kings County Branch be organi- sed. The officers and southern Kings directors are as follows:

President 0 John- ston. Montague. .

Vice-president - Allan hfscuan, lrurll.
