Youn Murray Willett won his iirstvic I'yoftl'lcseasonlasteve- H1113 when he chalked up a 0-3, three hit performance against the Pioneers at Sumrnerside.

Although the sophomore vita- ""“'".: °°: gr“ :;r.'.:..°: my 00035058 W 0 pl beautiful bn.1l.l1'llsWIaaLl1e111‘st,t.ln-rohewas able to break the ice. on one pre- vious occasion he had 17 strikeouts and allowed only four hits but was beaten by one run in the final

rame.

Riddled by injuries and absent- ees. the Pioneers were able to field only a skeleton of their once mighty machine. Wilson, Schur- m.a:n. Larkln, Clow and Downing were alxsent from the Pioneers’ line up although their substitutes turned in creditable showings a- field but weak with fine willow.

The Vitas combined a triple, double. i'lelder'a choice and wild pitch for the first then made a walk, error. double and triple Rood for four in e fo . The Pioneers were held scoreless till the sixth when an error and two singles produced two runs and a hit and two inneld outs got one in the I-eventh.

Pteatures of the game were I triples by Hogan and Jelly an the pitching of Willett.

on Wednesday evening the Vita- mannas and Kensingfon open the final round of the schedule. From present appearances it would seem that the Box are certain of first place and that the Vitas and Pic- neers will put u a stiff battle for second and .

T. O. M. Sopwith Awarded Race

COWES, Dig” July 31 —-(CE'). '1‘. 0. M. Sopwith's T:-mahawk was awarded the victory over Har- old 3. Vanderbilt's Vim late to- night by the R0 al LondonYacht Club on the deci on that the Vim be disqualified for a foul at the starting line.

However, after considering the case for nearly three hours the committee u held the protest that Vim crowde the Tomahawk by altcringiher helm as they sailed across tie starting line.

The incident recalled the 1939 battle between the two skippers when both Rainbow and Endeavor flew rotest f‘;gs in the final race or the America's cup.

Vim sailed the 27-mile course in

two hours 27 minutes and so sec- onds to finish 87 minutes ahead of Tomahawk. In another race Alfred Candee, helper aboard the Judy, was thrown into the sea and drowned when a wave knocked the yacht gver on one side as she rounded a uoy.

OINCINNATI, July 3l.—A Na. iional Baseball League pennant for Cincinnati peared almost “in the bait" toay as the Reds, 12 games in front. looked at the re- cord and figured they could play .500 ball from here on and still stand more than a good chance of the payoff.

And if there was a club among seven capable of holding the em-. rent P308.-sette:s_to that low mark, it didn't show in me July aver-

ages.

Desplte absence from the lineup most of the month of Ival Good- man, their extra-base slugging outfielder, Bill McKechnie's men went through July at a .759 clip. winning 22 and losing only 7 games to boost their margin five full games and their standing 4-4 points to a 90-°ame average of .667.

The only team that approached them in effectiveness was Pitta- bur h——a.nd the Pirates had to be con nt with 19 wins and 11 losses. an average of .633 that lifted them from sixth place on July 1 to a precarious third place rating of _523 where they virtually were tied with Chicago, 13 games off.

The Rhineianders have it fig- ured out this way as they look ahead to 64 remaining games:-— An even break would give them a season's percentage of .507 on 92 games won and 62 lost, the identi- cal figure by which St. Louis Card- inals and Cuba won pennants in 1930 and 1936, respectively.

To tie them. the Pirates with a record of 48 and 42, would have to win 46 of their remaining 66 games: St. Louis would have to win 44 of their next 66 starts: in- jury-ridden New York. in second

a current .333 average to .718 to annex 48 of 64. while the Dodgers. who dribblcd through the past 30 days at .484, would have to play .738 ball in order to take 48 of 65. Boston played .567 ball in win- ning 17 of 30 contests but would have to raise the figure to .781 in the final 64.

CHOOSING THE NEW CAMERA

race SEV_EN.'

For sharp pictures of fast-moving vacation-time games, you'll need a

camera with high shutter speeds. A

fast lens is helpful, too, when light

conditions are advcrac.

ABOUT this time of year—and especially with vacations in the oiling——many of us feel the need of a.-finer camera, with greater picture- taking ability. :'

A fine camera is about as easy to operate as any other. once you are familiar with it. But there is a differ- ence in usefulness between -the finer camera and the inexpensive model. Under adverse conditions, especially on dull days or with moving sub- jects, the inexpensive camera is handicapped. It may fail to get the very picture you want most. But under the same conditions, the flue camera performs capably—-insuring good pictures within much wider limits.

In choosing your diner camera, consider these points carefully. so that you can select a. model which exactly fits your picture-taking needs:

if you want to ‘be able to take

has a precision shutter with high speeds. A shutter speed of 1/400 or 1/600 second is needed for sports and fast action shots; 1/‘.100 for mod- erate action; and 1/100 ml‘ 5310133 Of alow action or subjects such as babies or pets which may move out!- denly and unexpectedly.

Some camera shutters now have built-in self~timer devices, which en- able you to appear in pictures taken by yourself. N aturaliy, the self-timer is an advantage in a. vacation or ramp lly camera.

Now for picture size. If you ax- pect to have your pictures finished as contact prints for album use, don't choose a camera that takes too small a picture. If, however, ’you;; plan to make enlargements. it.'s safe: to pick a. camera in the ‘miniature’ group. And, if you want to take ‘lull- color transparency pictures. jfor large-size projection on a home

screen, a miniature camera. is just

pictures outdoors under all daylight conditions, bright or dull, early morning or late afternoon, choose 8. camera with a fast lena—an f.6.3, f.4.5 or faster. For night snapshots by ordinary electric light, without "flood" lamps, get a. camera with 12 lane. If “flood” lamps are used, a. slower lens will do.

If you want to take pictures of moving subjects—or those likely to n1ove—choose a. camera which

what you need.

it's wise to obtain your finer camp- era well in advance of your vacation. and practice using it. Since these fine cameras are precision inatru.-1 men-ts, see that yours receives prop-3 or care. If treated well, such a cam-I era will give long and rneritorioud scrvica—service that far outweighl its cost. Just ask the camera hobs byist who owns one! .
