Wants were remarkably good and Ill possibilities are that this 1950 lesson is going over bigger and llslaer than ever. Our second call was at St. Peter's Raceway. Their management was happily engaged Ihifting their guard fence some 0 or 7 feet along the home stretch making the big way wider and; ore comfortable for horse and. river. Good luck boys. these hinxl lead to better crowds in 0 future. And to clap the climax unny Green Acres Speedway in pringfield has some score card offer the public this year, that

We were exceptionally well pleased to learn that our veteran horse- n Nhn Max Ferguson of Stan- ey Bridge is moving in on June 1st and is specializing on training and breaking colts at this centre. This should be a great boom and asset to the horse breeding indus- try in this Province. One can feel safe to say that Mr. Ferguson nds second to none in this ield of activity. Another happy murmur that pleased the people Oomewhat around this section wa: that the well known farricr Mr. Thomas Folland. of Tyne Valley.

Boston Braves Thursday pound- ed the dayiights out of the hap- less Pittsburgh Pirates. inflicting a 14-2 sheliacking on 18 hits top- ped by Sid Gordon's second grand- slam homer of the National League season. -

The setback was the ninth straight for the floundering Pir- ates.

Bon Elliott slammed a homer with one aboard in the third. The

Pirates finally put their first- baseman, Jack Phillips. on the mound in an effort to stem the

tide. He got nicked for four runs and seven hits in five frames

Loser lfel Queen dished a per- fect pitch to Gordon. which the powcrful Boston outfielder rapped for the fifth base-cleanin: homer of his career.

The Pirates counted their two in the fourth and fifth. Phil.lIps' sacrific fly sent Nanny Fernan- dez home and Dale Ccogan tallied on Fernundez' single the next in- nlng.

Vern Bickford went all the way on the mound for Boston. allow- ing seven scattered hits.

Philadelphia Phlllles knocked Frank Billet off the mound with five runs in the second inning, then coasted to an 8-4 triumph over Chicago Cubs.

Ourt Simmons, with assistance from Jim Konstanty in the final two Innings registered his seventh victory against two losses, The Cubs equalled the seven-hit total of the Phlllics. but theirs were well scattered.

Del Ennis, returning to action after a week's rest hecause of a pulled leg muscle, launched the five-run splurge with an infield hit.

St. Louis Cardinals squeezed into a first-place tie with Brook- lyn by crushing the Dodgers 5-2

behind the grand slam homer of Marty Marion. the first in his lifetime. Howie Pcllet held the Dodgers to five scattered hits. getting his first decision of the

year over Brooklyn.

For the first local baseball fans will have the

time this season.

opportunity of witnessing two teams of the Physical Fitness ls-

lantd Baseball League swing into action against one another here Sunday when the Surrvmorside Curran and Briggs. last year's

Provincial champions. clash with the Chnrlsttctr-wn Abbics at Main- orial Field at two o'clock.

. . .

The game will be the second of an exhibition series between the two teams as a pre-season tune up preparatory to the official open- ing of the league schedule next Wednesday at Summersidc. The two teams met for the first time this season at the Westcm Capital last Sunday. when the C and B aggregation nosed out the Abbics with a narrow 6-5 win after trail- ing by two runs got g into the last half of the ninth inning. . . .

Although it is expected that both squads will be using pretty much the same lineups as suw action last Sunday. there will no doubt be a few changes. probably in the hurling department in particular.

and as to just who will be the starting moundsmen. we do not know at the moment. stowart,

Grady and Bernard all saw action on the hill for Curran and Briggs last Sunday while Muiphy and MacLcan were the staff for Ab- bies. some of these at least, will be seeing action a'zal.n this Sunday. 0 I

In connection with the opening of the schedule next weck. despite the fact that the new schidule has not been released yet. it was learned here yesterday that of- flcials are hoping to have all four teams of the league open the sea- son on Wednesday. The schedule has been drawn up. but is in the hands of the various team man- agements at present for approval before being released If the- pres- ent schedule stands, it will see the

A.bbies opening at Cur: an and Briggs. and RC A.F'. at Ment's Falcons. Memorial Field.

Labor relations were reported on briefly at last night's meeting of the Charlottetown Board of Tiade by a committee organized last year under the chairmanship of Mr. Yvon Boudiias.

"Our first assignment." the re- port states, "was to investigate the reasons for complaints of a certain firm to the effect that the cost of unloading and loading steamers at Charlottetown is much higher than that of other Marl- time ports First it was establish- ed that all stevedcrlng had to be done by employees affiliated with the Labor Protective Union. and it was intimated by several ship- pers that. it was practically im- possible to have any shipping done if they were not employing Union members.

'IC)ur research also revealed that this Union had no method of bargaining and that their rules we:e set within their own Com- mlttec. thrreafter forced upon employers. However. this condition has now changed, in as much as, they have made an agreement with the Industrial Relation and Dis- putes Investigatlon Board. at Ot- tawa, and are new subject. to agreement by all concernod in their bargaining.

"Although certain shipping con- cerns were not satisfied with the past p:ocedure. it appears that most shippers favor the new set up and it is not anticipated that any future major troubles will arise."

The rrport recommends further effort". to obtain up-to-date com- parative cc-st. figures pertaining to other shipping poits in the Marl- tlmes. I

One unfortunate incident oc- curred to mar the otherwise per- fect night for the Kinsmen. The special entertainers engaged for the occasion on their way to Prince Edward Island were involved In an automobile accident and were de- tained In Saint John for repairs. It was hoped that they would ar- rive in time for one show last night but in nny event the per-

Tommy Henrich Told No Cure , For Knee Trouble

BALTIMORE. June 1 -(AP) - A doctor told Tommy Henrich to- day that the main trouble with his sore knee is something beyond cure-age.

It was the second time in less than two months the noted healer of baseball players' ailments look- ed at the left knee of one of the game's greats.

"No change, no change." repeat- ed I-lenrich.

"He just, told me to go on play- ing as much as I wanted and to take it easy as much is possible. No special treatment."

Dr. Bennett told the big first- baseman and outfielder the same thing April 10. Since then Hen- rlch has been forced three times to the bench by the knee trouble.

Wild life Stands ' Beller Chance In Atomic Vfajfare

WASHINGTON. June I-(AP) -In.any atomic warfare. animals and birds would have much bet- ter going than would humans.

That's the conclusion reached by Richard Gerstell. a former re- searcher for the Pennsylvania Game Commission, who was there when the test atomic bomb drop- ped on Blklnl,

Gerstell has an article. "What The Atom Bomb Will Do To Wild Life." In this month's issue of SPOHI Afiold.

Based on what went on at Bik- ini. Gerstell tries to picture the scene if a bomb were to hit. say in Chesapeake Bay.

The toll: Sudden death to many fishes, crabs and other creatures within hundreds of yards of the point of detonation.

"In addition, most ducks, geese and scavenging gulls and terns that might chance to light near the explosion centre shortly after the burst probably would be ex- posed to enough external 'heat' to bring death within a couple of weeks."

in spite of the high death rate. Gerstell says he doesn't think it would be much greater than a few days' take by hunters, anglers and commercial fishing boats.

But what if the bomb goes above ground? What's the then?

"In these high-level bursts," Gertsell writes, "practically all birds and mammals less than one- half mile from ground zero-the surface point directly beneath the explosion centre-will meet sud- den death should they happen to be in unprotected positions above ground.

"Many will perish several times over.

"They will soak up a deadly dose of radiation, be roasted alive by the heat flash and then fatally squeezed by the pressure wave."

Even here. some animals may be so cozily huddled In their nests .-perfect bomb shelters - that they'll ride out the atomic storm.
