Among those who sat" in on the

Saint Dunstan's-R.C.A.F. basket- ball game Wednesday night was Flying Officer Jack MacAndrew, now a radio officer with the R. C. A. F. but this time last year was a member of the Prince of Wales College basketball team. Jack, who enlisted upon completion of the College term last spring, was watching his first basketball game on the Island since the night a year ago when the Welshman down- ed St. Dunstmfs to win the Island title. MacAndrew scored 12 points that night in helping to bring P. W. C. its first Island basketball crown.

0 I 0 Actually Jack had just arrived back in the City Wednesday night about an hour before the game mmenced. .He has spent the past year in a flying school in On- tario and is making his first visit here since he entered the service. Several days ago he was transfer- red to the flying base at Green- wood. Nova Scotia, and is now spending a five-day leave in the Province.

0 0 Last year Jack combined with his brother Bill, Charlie 1-line, Ian Ashford, Garth Crockett and a number of other players to bring P. W. C. the Island crown. At the end of the College year both the Macdndrew brothers and their father enlisted in the services. Bill joined the Army and is now stationed at Camp Borden while their father is now Lieutenant Commander Jack MacAndrew of the Royal Canadian Navy. Quite a proud record for the MacAndrew family.

There could be an entsriaining summer here for followers of the fight game Forum Manager Bill Brown stated last night that ncgotiaticns are being made to

open the fistic season at. the Forum on May 24 with liarry Poulton of Charlottetown and "Red" Graham pfjfalifnx particip.-.iing in e main event. Graham, who is claiming the Maritime welter- weight title. will fight off with Poulton for the right to meet Tommy Spencer of New Glasgow for the Maritime Cl'Oll1'l. C O I

Graham is a seasoned campaign- er from the Nora Scotla capital who already holds a decision over Poulton. Harry, who has spent the winter fighting out of Toronto. is anxious to m:et him and as a matter of fact is ready to meet any fighter in the Dominion in his class. If Poulton can get past Graham and Spencer the way will be paved for several bouts with fighters front Upper Canada. two of whom already have been con- (acted.

O O O

The success of the fight game this summer depends upon both the fighters and the fans. The fans are the ones who keep the game going by their attendance and their enthusiasm is amused only through" the pleasing per- formance of the boxers. Poulton. we believe, can provide about as crowd pleasing a fight as most lll his class. If sufficient support is given the first fight or two then fans can bank upon seeing some of the top ranking Canadian wel- terweight: fight here before the

summer is over.

Browns Defeat Red Sox 6-1 As Cubs Down Brooklyn Dodgers 7 -2'

(By The Associated Press)

The upstart St. Louis and Chicago Cubs. major base- ball league tailenders in '51, knocked off the league leaders yes- terday as they continued their headlong gallop.

The Brownies got five-hit pitch- ing from Duane Pillette to whip the Boston Red Sox. 6-1. moving within a game of the American League lead. Minus Ted Wil- liams the Red Sox were shut out until the eighth. St. Louis ripped into Walt Masterson for single runs in the second and fourth and floored him with a three-run blast in the fifth.

Hanker sauer unloaded the bases with a first-inning double as the Cubs smothered Brooklyn. 7-2. behind Johnny Klippstein..The win actually put the Cubs a half game ahead of the Dodgers in the Na- tional League won-and-lost records but they still trail by 13 percent- age points, .727 to .714.

Sauer's burst with the bat boost- ed his league-leading runs-battcd- in total to 20 in 14 games. The Cubs blasted Ralph Branca and three successors for 10 hits in- cluding triples by Rob Ramnzwtli and Toby Atwell and doubles by Roy Smalley and Snuer.

Jim Beam found the revamped Pittsburgh Pirates his same old "cousins" as he pitched the New York Giants to a 13-5 win. The giant righthandcr owns a 14-2 lifetime record against the Pirates.

Home runs by West Westrum and Hank Thompson and three singles by Whitey Lockman help- ed New York pile up the second on loser Mel Queen and four oth- ers. Ralph Kiner hit his second homer in the ninth inning.

Frank smith came to the rescue of Herr Wehmeier in the ninth inning to save Cincinnati's 7-B edge over the Boston Braves. Dou- bles by Sam Jethroe and Earl Torgeson with two gone in the ninth scored a run and left the tying run on second. Smith came in to make Sid Gordon fly out. It was Wehmeier's third straight vic-

tory. In one of three American Lea- gue night gamcs, Joe Dobson.

Chicago White Sox veteran right- hander. held the Philadelphia Ath- letics hitless for 7 172 innings, then went on to turn in a two- hit. 3-0 victory. - .

Skeeter Kell, the A's speedster. bent out a slow roller for Phil udt-lphia's first safety. while Dave Philley come through with the second. a ninth-inning single.

Gil Coan's double and Frank Campos' single in the 13th inn-

tween Bob Lemon and Sid Hud- son nnd gave Washington a 2-1 victory over Cleveland. Coon started the Senators 13th with a double, and after Irv Noren pop- pcd out, Campos singled to score Conn.

waved it to the fans along the left field line and in the bleachers. These were the fans who were his -severest critics and they responded to his hat waving incident with tremendous applause. . . . There was something else about Williams that was never publicized I great deal. one thing that Ted never did was question an umpire's call. An American League umpire wrote something to this effect I short time ago. He admitted call- ing a. couple of bad one's on wil- llams. The Boston player turned around and looked at the official but never debated the matter. He was one of the most gentlemsnly players I ever worked with, stated the umvlre. I 0 We were pleased to see that Wil- liams' parting shot to the Ameri- can League was a two run homer which won the glme for the Sox. We hope that he can come back when his tour of duty is over but we don't think he will be the some and if he is not the same we wouldn't want to see him play.
