White Sox Maintain

Fast Pace To Keep Close To N. Y. Yankees

By The Canadian Press

The amazing Chicago White Sox swept through the final stop of their all-winning eastern trip Thursday by knocking off Phila- delphia Athletics ii-2. That left them two games behind the fast- stepping New York Yankees, American League leaders.

The Yanks used homers by Gerry Coleman and Joe DiMaggio to back up Joe Ostrowski in an 11-1 romp over Detroit. The bespectacled lefty. making his first start of the season, gave up 10 hits but coasted home.

Cleveland ripped Into Washing- ton for 19 hits in a 16-0 victory behind Bob Felleris two-hit pitch- ing. The victory pulled the Ind-

ians up to the .500 mark in s fifth-place tie with the slipping senators. -

The St. Louis at Boston Ameri- can League game was rained out Eddie Roblnson”s seventh home run led the White Sox' 11-hit bar- rage on Joe Coleman and Carl Schelb. Although Randy Gumpert also gave up 11 hits he lasted the route.

Manager Casey Stengel of the Yanks got away with a gamble on Ostroski who last pitched a com- plete game June 22. 19-30. stabbing for a No. 4 man to back up Vic Raschi. Eddie Lopat and Allie Reynolds. Stengel took a chance nn the former St. Louis Brownie. ostrowski gave up six hits in the first three innings, but finished

year. The veteran, sidelined by a back injury since April 1. gave up 11 hits in 2 2-3 innings although he struck out five.

Five runs in the first gave Fel- lcr a handy cushion. Another big blast in the third netted six runs.

Cold. rainy weather played hav- oc with most Victoria Day sport-

ing activities and celebrations yesterday causing the posll30n9' ment of a number of scheduled

events and kept all but the most venturesome of May 24th pleasure seekers indoors to spend a. quiet holiday at home. B O C The first harness horse racing meet of the season. scheduled for the Parkvlew RIBCCIVSY at North Riustico. and the offlcidl annual opening of the Belvede-re course of the Oh rlottetown Golf Club were both postponed. while many hope- ful picnickers. anglers, tennis en- il1l.l.".L.StS also suffered disappoint- ment and change of plans because

of the weather. Officials of the Pal View track announced that the racing meet will take place

But there were others who were unperturbed or unaffected by the v:c..iher .n-rled on as sched- uled. Turnlng their hacks to the wind. rain and cold. some 3'75 children and parents braved the elements to attend an open-air dedication of i. new playground fcr the children of the spring Park area. presented to them by Mr. Earl "Diver" Riggs in memory of his seven-year-old son Barry. who was killed in an accident scme two weeks ago.

. . .

It was a touching and joyous occasion in one as children and parents from all over the district came (2 pay tribute to their de- ceased playmate and friend. They were treated to ice cream and cake and extended the full freedom of a completely equipped quarter-ac- re playground for their conven- ience and pleasure. Attending that ceremony. one couldn't help being amazed to see even the tiny tots talee off their hats and bow their heads in silence in respect for their departed comrade. Conceal- ing his own sorrow to do some- thing that will benefit and protect other children in their hours of gesture that will long be apprec- play, Mr. Riggs has made a fine fated by the parents and children of the community.

. . .

Island kegglers weren't bother- ed by the weather either as they launched into their annual five- pln championship tournament at the Rollaway at nine otclock yes- terday morning and continued on until past midnight before a champion was declared. It was once again the Roliaway All-stars v.-ho emerged the winning team. the second title in as many years. The All-Stars held a six-point edge over the runner-up Char- lottetown Holy Name.

One of the features of the bowl- ing meet yesterday was the par- ticipation of two teams from the rural areas. Miscouche and St. Peters. who despite the fact that they finished in the cellar posit- ions of the eight-team competit- ions, made a splendid showing in their first year in Provincial play. Their efforts mark the advent of

bigger and better competition from country areas in the near future.

Truro Team Wins

HALIFAX, May 34 - (CP) - Asnialgamatlon of the Cape Bre- ton aud Big Four Hockey Leagues into a seven-team Maritime Ma- jor group was close to becomingi a reality after a meetlrg oi the two circuits Wednesday.

While no definite plans for the formation of a league were form- ulated, all seven clubs exlpressed themselves in favor of a loop that would embrace Sydney. North Sydney and Glace Bay of the Cape Breton League and Halifax, Charlottetown. Moncton and Saint John of the Big Four League.

North Sydney, earlier reported not interested in such a league. was represented yesterday by Ed Swyers and Gordon Drillon. Both said the reports had been pre- mature and North Sydney was ready to join a seven-team loop provided suitable financial ar- rangements oould be made.

Dr. Sandy MacDonald, Sydney

president, said Cape Breton teams could no longer operate under the three-team setup and

the only answer was amalgam- ation. If the league is organized, m-ember clubs, in order to e a well-balanced circuit. should think in terms of the league as a whole. "if the teams stay thinking about local patriotism to the detriment of the other clubs. then the whole league will collapse. Balance is

The public spirited efforts of I bereaved father and the sym- pathetic assistance of neighbors and citizens of this City realized a dream come true for the chil- dren of Spring Pairk and vicinity when a new playground was opened and dedicated there yes- terdiay afternoon in memory of Barry Riggs, deceased seven- ycar-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl "Diver" Riggs of Spring Park Road, who was killed when hit by a truck near his home about two weeks ago.

in a brief but impressive cer- emony. attended by hundreds of children and parents. Mr. Riggs handed over to the community a quarter acre of lan-d. fully equip- ped, which was officially ded- icated as ”Barry's Playground" by Rev. J. T. Irwin of Trinity United Church.

Following the dedication oer- emonry. presided over by Mr. Roy D. Ma)oGiilivray. vice-chairman of the City Playground Commission, some 3'15 children were treated to ice cream and cake that lent I happy note to the occasion de- spite the said circumstance that brought about the erection of this fine memorial for the safety and pleasome of others.

THE GUARDIAN, CHARLOTTETOWN,

Christ McAlden. secretary of the Big Four League and Ernie Moore. Cape Breton League scor- er. will meet June 11 to draft a seven-team schedule, taking into socount the traveling problems of the various clubs. This sched- ule and report will be presented at another Joint meeting and then the clubs will decide wheih-erhto operate as one Mairitime league or continue as two independent cir- cuits.

Both leagues presented a request to the C. A. H. A. meeting. now in session here, for an increase in the import quota to eight for ex- isting Maritime Major clubs or if any tea-m decides to enter Major competition. they asked that 12 imports be permitted.

Both leagues also went on record against the waiver rule whereby no player can be traded out of his league unless all other clubs waive on him. This. the meeting felt. would result in the gradual deterioration of Maritime hockey.

Attending the meeting were C. Roy MacDonald, presidcnii. of the Cape Breton League representing Glace Bay. Dr. MacDonald, Swy- ers and Drillon, George Mabee and Murray Long. Saint John, Vic- tor Olaind and Jim MacDonald, Halifax. Tom Rogers and Bill Brown. Charlottetown. Gordon Kuhn and Lobaron Reid, Moncion.

them. so I'm giving two of them to the Red Cross, to be put at their swimming centres at Bright- on and Kcnslngton Beaches. and one to another playground site. ”One has already been erected on his own playground and the other will be placed there shori- iy. He is also planning to add many new features to the site as the summer progresses.
