lle was Harris Turner of Victoria. BC. one of three blinded war veterans who challenged a trio of slghtlcss civilians to a novel jcust over green and fairway,

Tho civvlcs triumphed in the eight-hole match. scoring a total of 177 against the Vets’ 104. The ex-soldier shotsmitlls tallied the following scores: Harris Turner. 68; William Oxonham, Toronto. 52. and Ronald flewlctt. Calgary. 74.

The victors booked these figures: Charlie Tooth. Hamilton 5,6; Wil- son Barrett. Toronto. 60; A, l). Thlberi, Windsor. 61. Par for the eight holes. 2.580 yards, was 30.

The tourney was part of tlhe rec- reational section of the program drafted for the Canadian National institute for the blind's reuniotn here this week.

A surplus of curious caddies was on the scene when the golfers had their first "Sight" of the course. The bag-carriers were given type written instructions and fulfilled their obligations to a. With some of the golfers were their wiv- es,

Despite the two setbacks they llave suffered Knights have look- ed good ‘rn defeat. Defenslvely they are moving at. a rapid rate and once the hitters start slam- ming the horsehlde around man- ager MacI-‘arlane is certain that his squad will compare favorably with any junior team in the pro- vince.

Speaking of hitting the batters not only in the junior loop but. also in the City League have been held pretty much in subjection by moundsmen. Pitchers to date have been away ahead of the bat- ters and as a result, with the ex- teptlon of a couple of players. bat- ting averages are away down Afl the lower brackets. This state of affairs is not expected to continua, ll‘ one takes the hitters words for ll. hut. if it does and it 1s well within the realm of possibility, ‘here will be very few batters in the charmed .300 circle when the final out has been called.

i Early Race Fans To Getl

1y Double

The 02 Daily Double. now so common to racing fans all over the country. comes to P. E. I. for the first time. in it's properly and legally operated “parl-mutuel" form. It will be introduced at Summerslde on July 1st and 2nd. once each day. on the first. and second beats of the clay.

A How It. Works

‘ The patron selects a. horse in the first heat of the day. and buys a First Half. Daily Double ticket on him. If his horse wins. be exchanges his ticket. for an- other ticket on the horse of his selection in the second heat of the day (Second Halli, Of course. if his first horse doesn't win. his contract is void. Furthermore. he nlust pick individual and separ- ‘ate horses. Even though his horse may be grouped wtih others in a “Field" or “Stable Entry". arid one of the other horses wins a "Straight". or "Win" for the Field or Stable. unless his horse act- ually wins. he would not collect on the Dally Double.

The "odds“. however. O11 Dally Doubles in racing history. have varied from less than even mon- cy. up to as high and more than ten thousand to one! This is be- cause of the "longer shot" and “two consecutive winners" element of the Daily Double. It is not uncommon for a $2 Daily Double to‘ "pay oft“. at 100 to l.

To "get in on" the Dally Dou- ble. however. patrons must be on the grounds early. as it's all over with the second heat of the dav. The first heat, each day. is “off" nt, about 1.30 p.m.. and the sale. or exchange of tickets ceases he- fore the scoring commences for each heat. S

cr's death Wednesday resulted from his head hitting the floor when he suffered an eighth-round dechnlcal knockout by chamnlon Ray tSugarl Robinson the previ- ous night. -

The Commission previously re- ported that DoyleL who suffered a concussion in a bout here in lifarch of last year. was ohyslc- rlly tit and ready when he ent- ered the ring ‘rllesday night.

Coroner Samuel R. Gerber said tlfat although the ring floor might have added t,o the damage. the left hook to the jaw caused the injury.

The Coroner said he was deter- mined to learn if Doyle had rc- covered sufficiently from the ear- lier injury in the bout with Artie Levine.

Contakled in the Commission's report was a statement bv Dr. Hagedorn that. Dovle was checked by at least three other doctors before being permitted to fight Ralph Zanelll here in February and DannvKal-lllow in March fol- lowing his return to the ring. Dovle. who skyrocketed to the top of the welterweight contend- ers. was orllzlnallv managed ‘W the late Tfmy Palazola. a close friend of Paul Doyle. a retired. welterweight.
