Welcome Stranger

It will be Rovers versus Million- aires iri tonight's City Baseball League encounter and as has been the case in their last few gaimas. the Millionaires will be seeking a victory in order to stay in the running for a play-off spot_ By a victory they can creep up to with- in striking distance of the second place Rovers and its a safe bet that manager Irv McKinnon will have his strongest lineup on hand in order to give his club a further lease on life.

I I I

Tonight's game will get under- way at 5.30 sharp and this brings up the salient point that if the teams wish to get in regulation games they will have to be ready to star's at that time. Darkness sets in early these evenings and the only way out of the difficulty now facing the ball games is to have the games start earlier.

That was welfevldenced in the recent junior playoff game between

in only five games the cry immedi- ately arose whether or not the game was a legal one. We haven't yet found out whether or not any provision had been made for the playoff encounters but if there wasn't one made it appears about. time that when future seasons roll around that this very important matter be dealt with in the early meetings preceeding the opening of the season.

Cismmerside All Stars took it on the chin from Philadelphia Monarchs in both ends of yesterday's double- header staged at Summerside but. notviflthstanding the defeats the Summerside players displayed a good brand of baseball and despite the fact: that the local All Stars were able to take the measure of the Philadelphia team this does not place them in any favored position of beating the Summer- side squad when t-hey engage in their provincial playdowns_ r I I I

The Summerside team has a habit of coming through with their best performances when stacked up against a Charlottetown squad and this is very liable to be the case again this season. In games against each other so far this year we haven't noted any great difference in strength between them and the coming playoffs should produce the same close brand of ball that. was witnessed last fall when it too‘six games to decide the winners.

I I I

Knights of Coulmbus girls all star squad gave a great performs-- ance against Amherst Red Wings in yesterday's exhibition encounter here and although coming out on the losing end they showed decided improvement over last season's efforts and had they been able to sband the pressure in the final innings would have come out with a victory.

The season long schedule of games adopted by the K. of C. sports committee is evidently be- ginning to pay dividends. In the past number of years girls squads were not able to stand up to the competition offered by mainland teams but. judging by the perform- ance of the local ladies yesterday that. day is now past and in a couple of more seasons they will be able to hold their own with any girls squad in the Maritimes.

I I I

Racing fans witnessed a great program of harness racing at Montague yesterday afternoon. a program that was on a par with any seen so far in 1948. Finishes were extremely close and with the usual upsets occurring tho big amvd of fans that ‘wended their way to the racing oval were kept in a high state of excitement throughout each and every heat of the Iii-heat program.

Paced by s seven run splurge in their half of the last inning Amherst Red Wings yesterday battled their way to s 14-6 win over the K. of C. All-Stars from Charlottetown.

NEW YORK. Aug. 25- (AP)- The last. news item this corru- pcndent. picked up in London con- cerned Freddie Mills. the new light- heavyweight champion, who is supposed to be afflicted with a wandering vertebrae. or some- thing, which will keep him out of the ring for a time.

0n;- lnfonnant, who il 01ml t0 the British boxing scene. broke out in a wide ‘grin when we oom- mented 1t was s tough break for Freddie. being forced to cancel a return fight with Gus Lesnevich on this side just when he was get.- ting into the big money-

"Are you joking?" our ‘British friend demanded. "Don't Y0" honestly know what's wronl with Mills?"

He was assured that all we knew was what the doctors had sali- that Freddie was in no shape w fight Levnevich or anybody else- We added that we were read)’ W believe this, inasmuch as Freddie. even in licking Lnsnevlch. hm looked like a man whose feature! might. have been run through sa egg beater.

Home Wonderful Beating!

"True." our informant admit.- ted. ‘Treddie has taken some wonderful bestinfls in hll “Ii-fi- Ho looks shopworn. But that isn't his trouble right. now: A11 he's got is income tax trouble."

This was a genuine shocker, and we admitted it. After s11. the doc- tore-

"Sure. sure." interrupted the in- sider. "You Americans are ready to believe anything. But. I'm K11‘- iag to w. you right. old boy. Fred- die and his manager. TN 31°50‘ ribb. figured it out that. they could clear exactly $3.000 "M" another fight with Gus this year. The British 'Covernment. wou.d take the rest.

"There's still another angle. Take Freddie, he's a mtutl-l cruises-weight, and he still will be next. year. Leenevich has out- grown the weight. and it's almost. certain he will be fightinfl only as s heavyweight next year.

"Take (‘I-us out of the division and who's Freddie got to best? Nobody to speak cd. Ho can sit hero in lnndcn and lot. our big promoter, Jack Solomons, brir; on the challengers. He'll make more money doing that. than fight- ing in America. Now do you be- gin to see how sick Freddie is?"

He made it. sound all too plaus- ible, especially since we had rs- eontly seen promoter Bolomons in action on his homo Hound and had gained considerable respect for his talents.

He is a smooth customer and a greet showman. His outdoor show.- sre beautifully run and bounti- fully attended. Ho had s sellout ef 40.000 for the Lesnevioh-Milis bout, and could have sold another 20.000 tickets if he had wished to expand his seating arrangement.
