Stoefen showed a well-grounded game against Rainville. The Can- adian. however, was hardly a match for his tall rangy opponent who him on the side lines and seldom got in any telling rallies.

Martin did not seem able to fath- om the play of Shields. He could not cope with the tactics oi the New Yorker, although he did get going in spots. However Shields seemed to come back on his game when he needed to and brushed through the first two aets in a con- vincing manner.

In the third and final set of the Shields-Martin match neither play- er was able to break through service. Shields led off the set by taking his own service, but Martin came back to even the count. Thus it was until Shieit won his service on the 15th game. He put on the pressure in the final game and had Martin out oi position twice to break through his rival’: service to win the set and match.

‘Th; match was for the moat part from the back court, Shields being particularly effective with his strung backhand. although he did mix up his strokes to carry Martin over the court.

At the opening of the initial round, after being on the receiving end oi a couple of long hooks, Allan worked in to stagger Binns with a barrage oi body blows that sent the Charlottetown boy to the canvas, but Binns was back on his feet trading punches at the count oi four.

_In the second round, the Island slugger, dazed, attempted to keep Allan at a distance, but the Nova Scotis boxer sent him spinning to the ropes with a couple of short Jabs to the head, and followed up with body blows that floored him. At the count oi nine, dazed and weakened. Binns gamely raised himself, but was unable to withstand the on- slaught of the Westvilie lad and went down under a couple of hard drives to the head.

ATLANTIC crrv, N. J., May 24 —~Iames Archibald McLurnin, the Irish scourge of the Israelites, never appeared in better trim than he did today. Edging close to the end of training for his welterweight title defence against Barney Ross, Jew- ish champion of the lightweights. in Madson Square Garden's Bowl on Long Island Monday night. The Canadian Celt with the dis- arming grin and the paralyzing fists nursed a. little Negro boy from Philadelphia, Calvin Reed, through three rounds of punishment that did anything but improve Calvin's health. Jimmy, eager to cut loose with his heftiest wnllops, had to spread the chocolate skinned light- weight over as much territory as possible. Calvin is the only sparring partner left in camp.

Even so, MacLarnin was in rare form. He made every punch count, for he's doubly careful now of his valuable hands with the end of training only two days away. Time and again, fainting Reed with ev- erything from his toes to his forc- head. the one-time Vancouver newsboy tangled the Negro boy all up, opening him for the dagger left-hooks to the head and the darting right-crosses that have flattened more of the great fighters of his weight and inches of the past half dozen years.

At Ferndale, N. Y., today Ross travelled four rounds with his sparring partners, then did three rounds of exercises. His two spar mates, Tommy Romano and Phil Rafferty took quite a pummellng from the lightweight king who con- centrated on hitting with his left.

Baseball

Burhoea Grocers. last year known as the Tanners. made an auspicious start in their drive for this years Industrial Babeball title. when the’! blanked last year's champion An- chors 10-0 in the opening game of the season yesterday at Victoria Park Diamond.

~Two big innings, the third and fifth, in whichthey fell on the offering of young Bruce McCallum for eight of their twelve hits. and eight runs together with three costly errors was responsible for the winner's big margin. But at that the Grocers were the better team yesterday. playing a stcady game in the field and wielding pot- ent bats with men on the sacks. But the Anchors can lay. a lot of their defeat to the right arm of their former hurler, Archie Mac- Farlane, silenced the big bats of the Anchor team with a masterful display of pitching, Archie today would be in baseball's "Hall of Fame" with a no hit, no run game to his credit but for his former bat- tery mate's booming double in the fourth inning. the only hit the los- ers were credited with during the battle. In only one frame, the first. was he in trouble, an error, a. hit batter-putting men on with none out, but after that it was clear sailing.

But while MaoFarlaneb perform- ance overshadowed his opponent, MoCallum, pitching his first game in an organized league turned in a good performance only to have slow fielding by his mates cause several hits to be chalked up against him. However, for an op- ening game it was a good perform- ance snd ere the season reaches the middle mark the teams should be exhibiting some great baseball.

With both teams short several regular players the Maple Leafs batted out a l4 to 5 victory over the Falcons in a practice game last evening at the Abegweit Grounds.

It was a free hitting game from the start and at the end of the second innings the winners had garnered a 9 to 1 lend. The Falcons tried hard to make up the big defi- cit but it was too much of a task, although they seriously threatened in the eighth getting three runs only to have darkness cell a. halt, the score reverting back to previous inning.

Only Two 0f U. S. Wal- ker Cup Team Left In Hunt For British Golf Title.

(C. P.- A. P.) (By Guardian's Special Wire)

PRESTWICK, Scotland, May M.- As though taking their cue from the treacherous winds that comb bunk- ered Prestwick, comparative un- knowns blew the lid high off the British open golf championship.

The co-favorites for the title. Scotland's Jock McLean and Johan) Goodman, the United Stains oper. champion, were among those who were left in the sand-traps as the underdogs rushed on to amazing victories.

Six Britons little heard of in top- flight golf and a pair of Americans were all that were left tonight of the I big international pack which started ' out Monday with brimming hopes.

George T. Dunlap, Jr., U. S. Ama- teur titleholder, and W. Lawson Lit- tle, chunky San Francisco young- ster, clone survived. of the Walker cupsters and Jesse Guilford. who carried such a. seemingly potent U.S. threat into the fray.

'I'he home-brads still in the race were Leslie Gamett, James Wallace. Francis Francis, Alex Walker, T. A. Bourn and J. Neal.

The elimination of the 28-year-old McLean and who had been playing deadly golf, left the tourney fans almost too excited to remember what happened out there among the bunkers today.

The blonde McLean, after elimin- ating Guilford this morning, was conquered in the amazing fifth round by "Jimmy" Wallace an un- employed carpenter whose pocket- book is so flat that his caddy work- ed without compensation. Their match was watched by a gallery of 8,000, including the Prince of Wales, that roared a. great cheer for the conqueror as the contest ended on the 18th green with Wallace one up.

Goodman squeezed through b. pui- 51111118 morning match against Hugh G. McCallum, 43-year-old Scot, by one up at the 19th hole. He fought back courageously after being dor- mie two. The Omaha youngster fir- ed two successive pars at his older rival to square the match, then dropped a. tioklish putt for a. birdie and a win.

Against Leslie Gamett this after. noon. however. as the Briton poled out drives of 300 yards and better, and dropped curling putts as long as 40 feet, the feared U. S. open chum. pion couldnt keep pace. Gamett W011 by s 3 and 1 margin.
