Charlottetown! intermediate All Stars were at the peak of their form yesterday when they turned ‘back the Moncton nine in the ex- hibition game played at the Mem- orial Field diamond. Strong de- fenslvely the locals showed power at the plate that if it continues will play s leading role lfi their

title at present held by Summer- side All Sta-rs,

O‘!

as strong as was exipected, never- theless dished out some smart baseball and while the locals were no doubt the better team, we do not think that they are nine runs better than the Moncton squad. Sane loose work in the outfield accounted for four or five of the locals runs, drives falling in for hits that ordinarily should have been turned into putouts but with the exception of these la-pses, the visitors were right in the thick of things.

4' + 4- 0 But the big tumbling block in front of the visitors rwas the All Star. hurler, big Elmer Inter. Larter, who has met with little success in City league competition this season was right at the peak of his form yesterday. One of the best fielding pitchers in the Is- land, Larter had his stuff work- ing to perfection yesterday and as a result the Moncton clcuters could do little with the variety of stuff he tossed against them. It was definitely Lartens best per-

formance of the year.

The big rlghthsnder has been bothered with a sore arm all ses- son but the flipper is new start- ing to respond to treatment and with it in shape, the City League Millionaires can be expected to climb in the standing from this point on.

One of the toughest sports breaks of the year is the injury to Gil Dodds, who recently announced he was unable to make a try for the US. Olympic team. A tough break too for the United states entry as Dodds was considered one of its brightest stars in a year which many figure will not see the U.S. dominate this branch of the games as they have on j Q- r-aslons in the past.

Il- 1- 4' o

It must be a. terrific disappoint- ment to the "Flying Parson", who went through for the ministry while breaking records and mak- ing headlines on the spurts pages of newspapers across the contin- ent. Dodds has had great success as s, miler, but it wasn't always thus. 0n one occasion he was booed for a poor performance at Madison Square Garden. Some looked on him as s flop Ind pro- dicted he'd never be heard from in high-class company.

O O I

It hss been s hard olknb to the top for Gil Dodds, and he is sold to have had his heart set on rep- resenting the U.S. in the Olympics this year. To be cut dawn st this stage is s bitter disappointment. Yet there is no way out of it, and Olympic officials couldn't nan-ls him without setting s very dong- erous precedent.
