Local hockey fanshave a great portunity to back a local pro- ct tonight at the Sports Arena. Abbie juveniles, who lost an -7 decision to Chatham on Mon- y night, have a great chance to nnex the New -Bruii'swick--- P. ‘. I. crown and advance against ova Scotia for the Maritime .hampionship.' {Down one goal in a two-game tal goal series, the Red and lack outfit should be favorites erase the deficit and go on to chance at the three-province tle. These youngsters play a really easing type of hockey and are rtainly deserving of some solid ii reaction. Tonight, they,have ome ice advantage, but that ould mean nothing if only a few rn out to watch their efforts. From juveniles come Juniors 'nd from juniors come seniors- we ever hope to get hockey ack in Charlottetown, we must . upport these lads who are on the ' v up. _ , Last. season the Abbies went to he Maritime final before bowing fut to Sydney Academy. Our jun- ;)i‘s this year showed great -. {renglh and forced Cape Breton .1 go all out to earn a decision. md those same Cape Bretoners lisposed of Quebec’s Buckingham Beavers, All of which proves we have ne young hockeyists right here n Prince Edward Island. These oungsters deserve much greater han they have been receiving. i So let’s change the tune tonight. Nend your way to the Sports rena and cheer your Abbies to ictory. That added fan support "oould be just the thing to bring .i Maritime crown to Prince Ed- vard Island. Don’t let the boys down. Plush Roosevelt Raceway, the 520,000,000 night harness racing oalace on Long Island, opened ts 105-night season Monday with ifficials looking for a 10 percent crease in business. The swanky five-storey race- Nay opened last August 1 and con- ducted the most successful meet- ing ever held by a trotting track. A total of 2,400,774 personal at- tended during the meeting and wagered $166.252,334. Some crowd-some betting! Saturday night is Jake Kennedy night at the Sports Arena. City minor hockey league of- ficials will stage a night of hoc- key and skating with the entire proceeds going to Jake who lost his leg as the result of a hockey injury incurred in January. All connected with this venture are going all out to make it a night to remember. Tickets are »_ now being sold and the public is ‘ urged to be generous in its sup- port. If you are overlooked by the ticket sellers, drop in at The Bike Shop or Johnny’s Mayfair ; and they will accommodate you. Queen Square and Queen Char- lotte hockey clubs will provide Saturdays action and the en- ‘counter will be followed by a { Rock’ n‘ Roll skate. Get behind this most worth-
help rehabilitate Jake.
A variety of ailments plague big league pitéhers year after year and this spring certainly is no exception.
Several of those bothered in early training have already shown definite signs of improve- ment but Phillies’ Robin Roberts is not one of them.
Robin has been a real ‘cousin’ to National League sluggers since he came to the majors 10 years ago and he seems destined to continue that ‘relationship’. Last week the four-time 20- game loserin 1957, was pasted for five homers in one inning by the Pittsburgh Pirates.
.And still on the baseball front, Los Angeles Dodgers have sent pitcher Tom Lasorda to Montreal Royals. Tom's contract is one of six assigned to Minor league affliations.
‘Dusty’ Rhodes, World Series hero in 1954, finds himself in an unenviable position with San Francisco Giants.
Rhode’s future with the former Polo Grounders is most uncertain and don’t be surprised if he’s cut loose. He hasn't hit the past two years and this spring he has been bothered by severe headaches.
New York Yankees will be minus catcher Yogi Berra for at least a week. Berra suffered a split hand in a game with the Dodgers on Monday.
The death of Chuck Klein, 54, occurred recently Klein was the National League’s most valuable player in 1932 and hit 300 homers in a 17-year big league career with the Phils, Pirates and Cubs.
Jack Kramer Given Post.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)——Jack Kramer, professional tennis pro- moter, was named Tuesday to initiate an intensive training pro- gram with the sole aim of win- ning back the Davis Cup from Australia.
James B. Moffett, chairman of the United States Davis Cup selection committee, said the first step will be putting Barry Mac- kay, 23, of Dayton, Ohio, one of America’s bright tennis stars, un- der Kramer’s tutelage.
The U.S. last won the cup in 1954.

Most Pros Disappointed
tournament professionals were surprised and disappointed T¢s- day at news that the world’s richest golf event, George S.
May’s $205,000 circus at Tam O’Shanter, is being abandoned.
May said he plans to drop the tournament; effective this year, in a dispute with the Profes- sional Golfers Association over distribution of players’ entrance fees.
“Frankly I was surprised,” said Dow Finsterwald, a PGA committee member! "I trought the whole thing had been worked out to a point that would make ‘the tournament an invitation af- fair and would not ask entrance fees.”
Reaction varied, although vir- tually all players agreed it was a blow to lose a tournament with so much cash for prize money. Some blamed the action on the t i g h t ening business recession. Others said the PGA‘demands on May probably were too severe.
The tournament committeehas asked sponsors to retunn the en- trance fees to help finance opera- tions of the tournament schedule. Most sponsors are co-ofperatingj

Over the weekend, City Minor Hockey League officials an- nounced that they are staging a special night of hockey and skating during their regular Saturday evening time at Sports Arena this coming Saturday night. ‘This special programme is to be known as “Jake Kennedy Nite" with all proceeds—and it is hoped they will be considerable-—to be set aside to help in the rehabilita- tion of Jake Kennedy, popular young hockey ‘player who met with a very unfortunate acci dent whilst playing hockey for his school (Vocational School)
back in January. This unfortunate accident eventually resulted in the
amputation of a leg and the creating of a real problem of adjustment, etc., for the young man.
Officials and fellow hockey- ists are working on the project and tickets have been circulat- ed for sale to the public. If and when you are approached, buy a couple of tickets and help a good cause.
‘Jake Kennedy Nite’ feature a hockey game tween two smart, fnatched hockey teams Queen Square School and Queen Charlotte High Schools and -a Rock ’n Roll ska-te for‘ all? Q.S.S. and Q.C.H.S. always can be depended upon to give fans a real evening's hockey entertainment. They go all out at all times and the popular Rock ’n Roll skate always draws a good crowd so, with the type of evening planned, and the cause for which it is being staged being such a de- serving one, we are sure our citizens, young and old, will
