In the ownership of Harry’ | Hirsch of Sydney, N. S., trained and driven ‘Sy George Mauger, we believe he would qualify as one of the biggest money-winners that ever stepped \over a Mari-

time track. Here are some figur-

es to back up this assertion:

Dave Charnley

a oe Cops Lightweight e Boxing Crown

LONDON (AP) — Dave Charn- ley, a 23-year-old British south- paw, knocked out Willie Toweel of South Africa in the 10th round of a scheduled 15 - round fight Tuesday night for the British Em- pire lightweight championship.

It was a major surprise. To-

well, 25, was fourth ranked in the list of contenders for the world title held by Joe Brown of New Orleans and he held a 15-round decision over Charnley from the latter’s challenge July 9, 1957. ’ Charniey may get a shot at Brown's title although the cham- pion is scheduled to meet Paolo Rosi, Italian-born New Yorker, at Washington, D.C., June 3.

Ball Practices This Evening

Two softball practices are on tap for this evening. B.I.S. Sham- rocks work out at Queen Char-

lotte diamond and Junior B.Y.C. at the Old Diamond.

In 1956, he was 20 times first |

,and 15 times second, and had | winnings of $7,911 — all on Mari-| time tracks. In 1957, he was 19 | times first, 8 times second and 5 jtimes third, with earni of $6,295. In 1958, he was 15 times first, twice second and three tim- es third, with winnings of $5,112 —making a total of $19,317 in three years tof racing.

The Francis Breau stable will be handled this year by Harvey Cormier of Moncton, who has been one of the most successful

drivers in New Brunswick in re- cent years.

We have been following the races at Yonkers Raceway, New York, and we find that Billy Haughton’s stable won only one third placing last Thursday night. In the second event, a $2,000 Trot, Sanders Russell was the win- ner with Rodney Frost, with Earl Avery second with Sova Hanov * time 2.07.

PHILADELPHIA (AP)—Sugar Ray Robinson, virtually assured that the National Boxing Associa- tion would return his world mid- dieweight tith taken by edict May 4, signed Tuesday to defend that crown against Carmen Bas- ilio here Sept. 21.

Dr. Ward Wylie, president of the NBA, advised, that Robinson had signed for the title defence and had posted a $10,000 bond guaranteeing his appearance, said he would recommend the boxing board give Sugar Ray back his crown.

Wylie said at his Mullen, W.Va. home that he would poll the 15 member NBA executive board by telegraph and telephone at once. He said he felt sure the board would go along with his recom- mendation. ;

“Our lifting of Robinson's title was meant to accomplish two purposes—to get him to sign for a defence, and to give Basilio the shot at the title he deserves. I think today’s signing accomp- lishes both purposes.”

Robinson, 39, posted the bond after signing a contract with pro- moter Sam Rose for 75 per cent of a predicted $750,000 to $1,000,- 000 gate. No money guarantee was made to the champion.

CARIBOU, Me. (AP) — Yvon Durelle of Baie Ste. Anne, N.B., third-ranking contender for the world light heavyweight boxing crown, stopped substitute Teddy Burns of Boston at 2:16 of the third round Tuesday in a mild tuneup for his forthcoming title bout with champion Archie Moore Durelle weighed 175, Burns 17644.

Burns was a last-minute sub- stitute for Tinker Picot of . Dor- chester; Mass., who had been knocked out twice previously by Durelle. Promoter Ben Shapiro said Picct has a trick knee.

Durelle toyed with Burns for the first two rounds, then came out like a tiger in the third. He dropped him for a seven-count once, then put him down for nine with a left hook.
