James “Ben" McMillan of somer- ville, one of our oldest horsemen and who up to a few years ago drove in races at Montague and other tracks, -was a most interest- ed visitor to Cflarlottetown on Wednesday to see the King and Queen.

Jamel Pendergast, former moo sports promoter. Kensington. but now a mighty-tiller of the soil. also saw Their Majestfes together with the whole Pendergast family. Jim and the writer had an afternoon view of the procession from a van- [age point in a room situated some fifty feet away where we held con- verse on horse and other topics while waiting for the great event. We could not discern '1'»hel.r Ma- jesties but knew their car, spectat- ors and other impedimenta—that's 3 good word that Jim will like that prevenicd. ’

Jiy the way. Jim told me that he had written to George Leslie some time before advising hint: to use the one two straight left that Joe Louis has perfected. against Graham. On picking up the paper Tllursriay morning I noticed where Gmhzims championship aspira- tions were settled by Just such blows. “Big Jim" as we familiara like to refer to him, is a well ed ucated man. having graduated from Prince of Wales College, where his physical assets were noted on the football field. He then started out. for the real battle of life by questing for gold in the early Klondyke rush. It took men of iron will and physical constitution to get through and Jim was one who made a success and many frisn(l:. afterwards becoming the champion heavyweight boxer of that glveat gold territory. He en- gaged in many battles with the land including Jack former light heavyweight champion of the world, so when Jim proffers ad- fiice on pugilism it is well to head

those who occupy the grand stand workout days should clock some fast halves and quarters and perhaps some good miles. As far as we know the 2.19 of Jane Azoff is the best mile to date.

There will be no racing between July 1st and July 12th we under- stand. Harry O'Brien having reserv- ed July 51-11 for his race meet should a. postponement due to rain be. necessary.

Thursday, July 20th. there will be a rogram of horse racing in connect on with confederation. The committee in charge will an- nounce classes later on, that should fit in most of the horses racing. July 26th has been reserv- ed by Jimmie Milligan for racing at Milligan at Morrison‘s track. Northam, and August 2nd will likely be utilized by Montague.»

Boxing Cord Slated For Cardigan

Cardigan Hall is slated to be the scene of much action on Monday niiglh-t. when six evenly matched prize fighters, the majority of them hailing from district start sling" punches at each other.

Hea lining the event is “Bomb- ez" Shepherd of Cardigan a boy who is piling up an enviable string of knockouts in recent local bouts and Hammerhead Jackson a. Char- lottetown mitt-slltnger. Stine bout: is scheduled for eight rounds but the majority of the fans who have been following the boys can't see it going the distance as both are heavy hitters and swing them from all angles all the time.

In the semi-final Dinky 1i'ly'n.n and Ira MaclMll','n come together in what is being termed as I “g:udg3" fight so plenty of fire- works can be expected here. Wind- ing up the promising looking card is the four round scrap between Frank Mc.Eachcrn of Morel!“ a boy with a high reputation and 1'<‘lu.nic.'s Ghelphard of Cardigan. This rellminary has the es.:marks of be ng another battle royal.

several other items of entertain- ment are also scheduled for the some evening in the same place so the entire card should be well worth while attending.

BY GAYLE TALBOT

PRlINGE'I'ON. N. J.. June 16- (AP)—Prospects are good for the fastmt mile ever run on two legs when Sydney wooderson, England's wonder sprite, meets four top United States milers, including Glenn Cunningham, in the feature attraction of tomorrow's sixth an- nual Princeton invitai/ion track meet.

Woodersou, holder of the world‘: outdoor record of 4:06.4 for the classic distance. has four satisfactory workouts on the fam- ous Palmer Stadium track. He's feeling great and has his heart set on establishing a record that might stand for his life-time. The figure in his mind and in that of his coach. Albert Hill, is 4:03.

To skim the mile at such a phenomenal ace the little London solicitor realzes he will have to ste out in front of Cunningham an his other three rivals-Chuck Fenske, Blaine Rideout and Archie San Romani-at the start and run like a deer all the way.

if he decides for some reason only to run to win and reveal his superiority over the Americans, it might not be an exceptionally fast mile. perhaps not better than 4 10. But Wooderson hasn't talked that kind of a race. He nodded agree- ment ymterday as his coach map- ped out the plan by which he thought Sidney could run a 4:03 mile-60 seconds for the first quarter, 61 for the second, 62 for the third, 60 for the fourth.

In the opinion of most track fol- lowers, Cunningham is the man Wooderson has to beat "Old Bon- es" has been complaining of lack of condition. and that‘: usually had

Singles Title

TORONTO, June 16 —(<7P)- The first test to decide Ca.nada’s Davis Cup team for 1939 simmered down to the final today with the last Canadian on the sideline and two Detroit buddies, Carl Fischer

and Bob Madden. left alone to fight for the Ontario singles Championship.

This was the way the experts picked the event to end and the Michigan netmam gave no indic- ation it could be otherwise as they brushed aside the Canadians in today‘; quarter-finals and semi- finah. The last native protest was soundedi by Bill Pigott of Hamil-

ton.

' The big blond, with courage. strength and a good game, forced Madden, No. 2 in Michigan, to four sets before yielding. At the end, however. Madden was in con- trol. He ran off the last three games to make the final score 2-6. 6-4, 9-7, 6-3.

A littleearlier Fischer,Michigan’s No. 1, had disposed of Don Mc- Diarmid of Ottawa in straight sets. 6-2. 6-4, 6-1. These two results must have given the Davis Cup selection committee what final proof was needed that the Dom- lnion can't count rm strong repre- sentation for a while yet.
