DURBAN, South Africa (AP)-

A carnival sharpshooter who fires at a line-up of bottles on I table from a speeding airplane was liooted off the program at the Durban air week festival Tuesday when spectators got on unschedu- led look at the trick of his trade.

Marksman George Pienaar fired, and bottles splintered, as the Tiger Moth plane in which he was a passenger swept by the table twice. But the third time, the slipstream of the plane whisked away the sides of the table-re- vealing I man underneath with a hammer in his hand.

Tennis fans here uill get their chance in see how a seven-month tour of the leading winter tourna-I rncnts in the United States and; Europe has polished Mains piayp when Canada meets Chile here this) week in the first round of the! North American zone Davis Cup' play. 1

Main. who first started playing. tennis in Vancouver when he was. nine. said Tuesday in an interview: that playing against some of the inn wnrld plnycrs nearly every week during the tour has made. him a differcnt playcr. He said he; now goes inio every match with more confidence his shots will work for him

"It is one of the biggest thingsl in tennis.” he said. "If you go outi there every day knowing that you can give the other guy a battiei no matter who he is, it's amazing; what kind of stints you can make: In these big tournaments every; player plays a diffcrent game and you learn I bit from each one."

He played in France. Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, England and Ireland. He won the singles of the Monte Carlo international tourna- ment by beating Paul Remy, Francois No. 2 player. and paired with Gil Shea of Los Angeles to capture the men's doubles of the Irish championships.

TOURED WITH BEDAIID

He says the best match he has ever played was the one he lost in five sets to Mervyn Rose of Aus- tralia. one of the world's top rank- ing stars. He lost 1-5. 3-6. 7-5, 3-6, 6-3. He came so close to winning he still can't figure how he could have lost. In the two sets that Rose won '7-5, Main had him reel- ing and at one point led 4-2.

Bob Bedard if Sherbrooke. Que., who along with Paul Willey and Don Plait of Toronto. makes up Canada”: team against Chile. also toured with Main. His record is not as consistently good as Main's but the tour showed that if he con- tinues to develop as rapidly as he has in the last couple years he might go far in the tennis world.

The 23-year-old French-Canadian who until the last year and a half was hardly known outside his ina- tive province. had his biggest day in the Italian championships when he defeated Sven Davidson of Sweden, ranked among the world": first 10. 4-8, 3-6. 11-9, 8-3. 6-2.

Boxing promoter Ivan Doherty negotiating for I Dominion

is title fight in Charlottetown dur-

week of August. Canadian middle- weight champion Charlie Chase to put his crown on the line against Coby McCluskey in a 12- round bout on August 6. The City promoter has been in touch with Chase and the Montreal fighter is definitely interested. The Can- adian Boxing Federation agreed to sanction such I bout provided that Lou Lawrence of Vancouver did not fight Chase uiihin 30 days after the latter had won the title. There is no indication that Lawrence intends to challenge Chase despito the fact be is the. leading contender. Chase vvilli warm up for his title defence by fighting Gary Simon in a non- title bout at New Glasgow on July 26.

After watching Don "Duck" Trainor in action this spring and summer we figured him as one of the best prospects to come out of the Island for some time. Offi- cials of the Canadian Boxing Federation however went I step further and evidently figure Trainor is beyond the prospect stage. IB)' rating him as Number Two contender behind Lou Law- rence for Chase's Canadian mid- dleweight, title. they put their stamp of approval on Trainor as a top-flight fighter, who is ready for the' best in the Dominion.

ing the Doherty

Trainor's high rating came as I slight surprise due to the fact that he has been fighting only six rounders. He has looked good in those six roilnders yet it is rather unique for a fighter who has been fighting semi-finals to be rated above the mainliners. It could be that Sylvio Mireaull, the manager of Tony Percy, after see- ing Trainor fight Gerry Fraser here in Charlottetown. brought back glowing stories of Trainor's ability to the Montreal officials. Trainor too has fought in several Maritime rings this year and everywhere he has given fine per-

formances, These continued re- ports of good fights wouldn't fall on deaf ears.

Trainor thinks he ma)" have to move into the ten round class. He isn't too keen about the idea as he is still young (20) and wants to give himself a chance to de- velop properly. Yet the truth of the matter is that it is becoming difficult for him to get semi-final lights. Thnre isn't too many good semi-final fighters around and even fighters whom Tralnor could whip three times a night are starting to get ten rounders.

Already Chris Chaban of Monr- lon is after Trainnr to fight Gary Simon. Yvon Durelle will de- fend his Canadian light heavy- weight championship in Monclon next. month and Chaban would match Trainor and Simon in In eight round semi-final. Trainor himself would like another six- round fight with Gerry Fraser. then If ten rounder with I mid- dleweight like Roger Whynoii be- fore stepping into the ring with Simon for I main bout.

Trainor may be grunt! I0 NPW Glaegow early next week to train with Gary Simon for the Chase light. Bobby Gleason of New York wants Trainor to join his 3-table in the United States this coming winter and Don may take ilhis chance of obtaining I year's training under Gleason. Then too Nat Forman wants Trainor and Harry Poulton to go with him on A European tour this fall. From now on Tralnor can he sure of one thing. He is going to be in big demand in fistic circles and if he keeps coming along as he has this year he will make quite I name for himself.

NEW YORK (AP) - Grantland Rice. '13, dean of sports writers. died Tuesday.

He started his career on the Nashville. Tenn.. News in I901. For the next 50 years he chronicled the exploits of some of the greatest athletes.

A stroke ended his life It 6:15 pm. EDT. He died It Roosevelt Hospital.

Rice reached I peak in the 1920.; during the "golden age" of sport. As I first hand observer, he became I recognized authority on athletic events.

He considered Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth the best ballplayera of the thousands he watched. The Demp- sey-Firpo fight stood out to him as the most exciting. Bobby Jones was his favorite golfer. And his greatest horse race was the 1938 match when Seablscuit beat War Admiral.

STRIKEN AT DESK

He was striken in his office about noon while working on his syndicated column. "The Sport- light." With him when he died were his wife. Kate Hollis Rice.

Rosen, Fox Star In American League All Star 1 1

By JACK HAND

CLEVELAND, (AP)-Injured Al Rosen, who offered to sit. out the game "for the good of the tearn". staged I. tremendous one-man show to drive in five runs with two home runs and a single Tues- day, but it took Nellie Fox's two- run bioop single in the eighth to give the aroused American- League an 11-9 victory over the National in the 21st all-star major league baseball game.

Records tumbled under the burn- ing sun at Municipal Stadium as the two clubs staged the dizziest hitting spree in all-star history.

one of the chief casualties was the National's four-game winning streak. The American League now holds I 13-8 edge in the series which dates back to 1933.

Rosen's record-tying two homers and five runs batted in provided top drama in a stirring game in which the lead tectered bac and forth. The teams set records itr. 31 hits for both clubs, 17 for the American League and 20 runs scored by both teams; and tied I mark with six homers. CLEVELAND STARS

A crowd of 68.751. only 1.061 short of the all-star high set at the sa e park in 1935. thrilled to the batting show. especially be- cause Cleveland .hitters drove in eight of the American League's ll runs.

with two on in the third Rosen slammed a Robin Roberts pitch for a 380-foot homer and I 3-0 lead. Detroit's Ray Boone followed

with I homer to make it 4-0.

In addition to Rosen, Cleve- land's second baseman Bobby Av- ila. drove In two runs with I single and sacrifice fly Ihd centre fielder Larry Doby hit I pinch home run in the eighth to tie the score at 9-9.

CLEVELAND (AP)-"I didnit sleep I wink last night worrying whether I'd be an all-star game goat. I even asked before the game to be taken out after my first time at bat."
