E Two great veteran moundsmen hooked up in a_ real fihrlller iMonday night In Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia and it was {a pity that one was bound to lose.
= Robin Roberts who is staging a courageous comeback and
{Carl Erskine who is flying to do the same thing treaited Philadel-
' phia fans to one of the best pitching duels of the season before
Erskine grabbed the 2-1 victory. It made Ca-rl’s record read 3-2
1 and brought Roberts below the .500 mark with 4 wins to go along
‘ with five defeats. -
' The win for Erskine was something the Los Angeles Dodgers ‘needed very badly and brought them to within three games of
i the first division. It also showed Wa.lte(r Alston that Erslnne is in form and barring injury is likely to stay that way for the rest
‘of the season. The way the majority of Dodgers moundsmcn have
been behaving Alston can certainly use the game little right-
hander. \ '
But Roberts) lost nothing more than a ball game. His mates
couldn't get him the runs off Erskine and that was that. He hurled
‘:3 six hit ball and that should be good enough the most of the time. ,: However it wasn't Monday night with Ca-nl tossing a spectacular
‘two-hitter. .
Guys like Roberts and Erskine don’t know what it means to ', quit. They are the kind of pitchers whose names will live on long ' after they have ceased to toe the mound.
Baseball can use plenty of~~fellows other sport. / D O O t
The City ‘Softball League commenced actionehere Monday
. night and seems headed for a successful season. There’ll be many - a bitter contest before a champion is crowned late in August.
Lorne Israel and Joe Thistle came up with terrific pitching
, performances in the openers, each tossing thiree hitters. Thistle
t ‘was able to chalk up a shutout in his first try. ' .
Basilica Youth Club Juniors showed: John Hughes to the Shamrocks in relief the other night and what the Irishmen saw they didn’t like. Hughes pitched the last four innings and held the Irish to one lone base hit. Nine of the twelve putouts were by the strikeout method. -
His performance was to no avail as Thistle wasn’-t giving the -)B.Y.C. an opportunity to get started. But Hughes established :.as the pitcher to bear watching and we expect to see him toss 3‘. some real good games ‘for the Juniors this season.

Milwaukee Braves centrefielder Henry “Hank” Aaron .has been named “Wisconsin Father of the Yea=r”, a.n award made by he National Fathers Day council of New York.
A framed citation was presented to Aaron at County Stadium ~ yesterday just before the game with St. Louis Cardinals. He was _;selected in a vote by members of the Wisconsin Men’s Apparel club. ',
g ' The presentation was made by the club president.
Red Schoendienst made h-is first error of the season last week gin Cincinnati when ‘he fumbled pinch hitter Jerry Lyn.ch‘s bounder " in the seventh inning. He had handled 194 consecutive chances, including 153 this year, since ervring against the New York Giants ‘last’ September 18." ‘
Quite a competitor, this ‘Schoendienst.

St.» Louis Cardinals drive upward took a bit of a halt over the weekend thanks to Pittsburgh Pirates and Cincinnati Redlegs. The Pirates walloped the Red Birds 6-1 Saturday and the Reds made the Cards settle for a split in a doubleheader on Sunday.
As of Tuesday afternoon the Cardinals were nine games off the pace and were still playing only .429 ball. They have a great chance to go something this week at the expense of the front runners, San Francisco Giants and Milwaukee Braves. They play Braves twice and then entertain the Giants in four games at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
_ If the Red Birds could go on a ‘six game winning streak for Tthese important games then their chances of being real pennant contenders would be much brig-hter. Hutchinson will pull out all athe stops for these half dozen’ and both Braves and Giants will ‘have their hands full indeed.
L This National League is shaping up like a terrific race. Braves are ‘favourites to get home in front but they have quite a, tough
road ahead of them. )3 It i: It

Prospects for junior baseball in Charlottetown appear brighter ‘at the moment. A good turnout of players greeted coaches Charlie Ryan and Jack Ready last evening at Memorial Field and there seems a better -than even chance that some kind of a junior league will be in operation. 5 _ There's many fine young players in the group reporting for I practice and some really good action could be served up "by these jyoustliful players. Junior leagues in the past have proved popular ;here and there seems no reason why history won‘t repeat itself glll this regard.
There are other good junior players who aren’t reporting for practice but that is no fault of their own. They are out of the
province for the summer months engaged in work which will pay ‘
ftheir college tuition fees next fall and buy them some clothes. :They undoubtedly would love to be at Me-morial Field with the ‘ rest of the junior lads but the practical thing is to earn some money for next fall's spending. With these fellows it’s just a case of first -v things first. :_ There still are enough players around to get a league going.

Leafs Sell—— Mounclsman
TORONTO (CP) Toronto: Maple Leafs of the International Baseball League Tuesday sold veteran leftliand pitcher Ross Grimsley to Louisville of the American Association.
Grimsley, who won four and
I lost -five last year for Leafs, had
piliched only four innings this year. He was placed on the team’s inactive list last week as Leafs’ playing roster was cut to the league’s 20-man limit. General manager Rudie Schaf- fer also announced Leafs will look over right-hand relief pitcher Sonny Dixon, released last week by Richmond Virginians.
Berioia Will Get Degree
0 l WINDSOR, Ont. (CP) - Reno Bertoia, only Canadian holding down a regular position in major league baseball makes a round- tripper education-wise Saturday
arts degree at Assumption Uni- versity, here.
The 23-year-old Detroit Tiger third baseman had it tougher than most students, combining education with professional sport.
During the last five years he has been opening and closing textbooks in such varied places as Lakeland, Fla., Boston, Chi- cago, New York, Cha-rleston, W. Va., Denver, Indianapolis and Louisville.
In the ofl’-season he was a reg- ular studext a.t Assumption and managed to find time to keep in shape playing basketball.
Reno made the grade from sandlots to majors this spring. He began his career with Assumption High School and as a high school player signed a_ major league bonus oontract with Tigers who
' had to outbid several other major
league clubs.
“A college education is no drawback in professional base- ball," he says. "Bob Shaw, Red Wilson, Harvey K-uenn, Frank and Milt Bolling on our club and others have combined education and athletics.

Down. THE S
BACK STRETCH
ton, Kentucky, has very kindly sent us a clipping from the Lex-
‘ington Herald referring to the
death of Ben F. White in hos- pital at Orlando, Florida, last week, at the age of 85. He was born in Whitevale, Ontario, on February 5, 1873, and his first race that he drove in was at Markham, Ontario‘, in 1888.
He was colisideredvthe dean of harness r a c in g drivers in America, and the only man to win four of the world's biggest stakes-the Hambletonian, for three-year-old trotters. For many years he had lived in Lexington, Ky., and he was the first man to realize the advantages of training horses during the winter months in Florida. He picked on one of the smaller towns- Orlando-as the most desirable site and constructed a track and stables there. Today it is the greatest winter race home of trotters and -pacers in the world.
He drove his first Hamble- -tonian in 1926 and finished in third place. He then won three Hambletonians at Good Time Park, Goshen, N. Y. in 1933, 1936 and 1942. And in 1943, he won his fourth at Empire City running track, ‘now Yonkers Raceway in New York. The horse he drove was Volo Sonig. STOOD 16 YEARS
In 1916, he drove Lee Axewor- thy to 21 World's record for I trotting stallion of 1.58 1-4-a mark that stood for 16 years, and at Lexington, Ky., in 1938 he won one of the principal trotting stakes with Rosalind, time 1.56 3-4, which is still the world’s trotting record for mares, and. she also holds the world’s trotting record for four-year-old mares at 1.59 1-4.
The story of Rosalind is an in- teresting one. She was bred by Mr. White and when his son, “Gib", was critically ill, be made him a present of the mare and told him he believed she would be a world's champion. By this encouragement Gib made a re- covery, and afterwards took up the training of trotters and it is still his life interest -although he does not race very much. Rosa- lind proved a valuable gift; she, too. won the I-Iambletonian and other big stakes.
As an illustration of the way times have changed, it is related that when Ben White, who had been with houses since he was a very small boy, visited Village Farm s t a bl e in 1895, E. F. (Pop) Geers took a fancy to him and thought he would make a top driver. So Ben took the
job there at $18 a month, and later became second trainer, and fin-all,v head trainer.

Sciibclll Tonight
Two exciting games are on tap for softball fans this evening.
At the old diamond in Victoria Park Rollaway Aces will enter- tain Summerside Airmen. For the Flyers it will be their first action of the season. For the Aces it will be their second chance to get in the win column. They failed to do that Monday night when they fell victims to Barry’s Lions 12-2.
The Aces will have their work cut out for them when they take the field against the Air Force. The Airmen always came up with a strong outfit and this year cer- tainly will be no exception. Aces on the other hand are out to prove that"the opening defeat was something that won't happen too often. This evening's game should prove that-right or wrong.
At Queen Charlotte diamond the. league. leaders, Barryls Lion‘: e .. gage in a battle for first place. Both won their opening games on Monday and looked mightly 800d in doing so. But one must bite the dust tonight. Both games start at 6 o'clock sharp. _

WORLD RECORD .
Joe O’Br.ien shipped to Leban- on, Ohio, for Friday night's nac- es, May 16 and in the Transa- merica Pace. purse $5.900, he gave Speedy Pick a great battle with Adios Express. finishing right on his necktie. Speedy Pick holds the world's record for tvhree-year-old geldings on a half- mile tra.ck, 2.00 4-5, Widower Creed, 1.58 3-5 was third.
Most of Joe's stable is still in Maryland, and we notice where Shadow Wave, won the District of Columbia Pace for Joe in 2.05 at Roseoroft, and the feature event of the night of May 15 - the Conditioned Pace, purse $4.000 - was won by Adioway, driven by Joe. These horses are’ all owned by the S. A. Camp stalble.
Here is the way the reporter for "The Horseman and Fair World” describes the latter ev- ent: “Feature of the night was won by Adioway, the Camp farm pacer turning the Rosecroft track in 2.04 for Joe O'Brien. and his finishing splint from be- hind was in typical O‘Brien and Adioway style. First quarter of the mile was in 29 1-5, the half in 1.00, and after that the Camp home-bred Adioway came along and picked up the marbles.” Rosecroft is a half mile track. IN ITALY
