SUMMER-SIDE. Sear. 1e. - The presentation of the Strong-Morrison Cup and A. E. McLean shield to the New Annan Wanderers, double champions oi the Prince County Soccer League was held at a ban- quet in the Travellers’ Rest Hall last, evening.

The Splendid banquet and dance was put on by mothers and sisters of the Wanderers’ team. The chair_ mml. Mr. James Marchbanks, open- ed the presentation ceremonies by proposing a toast to the King, fol- lowed by the National Anthem. Mr. A. E. McLean then gave an able ad- dress on the history of the game and complimented the teams on their sportsmanship and their keenly con- tested games. He then presented the McLean shield to the Wanderers’ Captain, lvir. Albeit Stafford, that doughty warrior of New Annanls defence.

Heath Strong, KC. in a stirring

address congratulated the winners and the losers on the enthusiastic support they gave their teams and the fine team spirit and camaradiere they showed. He then presented the Strong-Morrison cup to the Wanderers‘ captain. A toast to the ladies was propos- ed by Mr. Hugh Morrison and res- ponded to by all present singing "For They're Jolly Good Fellows."

Hopes For Light Wind

NEWPORT, R. 1., Sept. 18-—Har- old Sterling Vanderbilt, skipper oi the America's Cup defender, Rain- bow, leaned on the rail of his big yacht Vara this evening, vefling into the dusk settling over New- port Harbor while he tried not to appear down-hearted. He didn't succeed very well.

"I'm not discouraged over Rain- bow's two defeats," he said. "The British challenger, as I've remark- ed before, is a very fast boat. We're hoping for light weather."

Despite the fact the British sloop has outsailed the United States de- fender in everything but the light- est airs, Vanderbllt- plans no changes in Rainbow. Apparently there's nothing that can be done about, the situation that hasn't al- ready been tried.

"I wouldn't even be sure oi win- ning." he said, "if we woke up to- morrow and found only a zephyr blowing."

Large Crowd Expected To Be On Hand To See Final Card 0f Season.

'I‘he curtain will be rung down on harness racing for 1934 this after- noon at. the Charlottetown" Driving Park Track, and from all appearan- ces, it will be a brilliant ending. There is a. splendid galaxy of two and three year old cults and older race horses awaiting Starter Acorns word "go." By train and truck they have been arriving from various parts of the Province. There are twelve colts in the two classes and so evenly are they matched and so ilnpredictable the happenings of the colt race, that even the most astute horsemen do not seem able to pic's winners.

The 2.15 trot will, without ques- tion, bc one of the outstanding races of the season. There is rather more than a. keen rivalry between two oi the western contestants, Helen D. 2.14, and Frank J. Ortolan, 2.12. Each has his or her coteric oi ad- mirers, and it is rumored that there is some coin bcing used to back their opinions. Bellini Scott. 2.0914. fresh from a victory at Fredericton, where he trotted the mile in 2.10‘."l. has a big Kcnsington following, while lots of Charlottetown boys are pinning their faith to Charlie Chandler's Lusty Frisco, 2.07%. Captain Cope, 2.14 will likely be an added starter, and if so, don't overlook him, as he won two races at Halifax.

2.18 trot and pace-J-lere is an- other real ripper of a contest. Harry O'Brien will be in the thick of the fight with Mack Volo, 2.12%, who was a little off at Halifax, but is now eating three square meals a day and just “rarin' to go.” Winnie Winkle. 2.12%., is mighty good, and Charley Reardons The Willys, 2.l3,_was only beaten a head in 2.09 at Fredericton. Allie Burnham, 2.08%, and Real Great 2.19%., make up the balance of the field.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1. - For the second time in as many days Detroit Tigers at home whitewashed their only remaining challengers for the American League pennant, New York Yankees, winning 2-0 today to advance another stop toward clinch- ing the flag.

Lynwood (Schoolboy) Rowe took up the task where General Crowder left ofl yesterday and set do\vn the Yanks with six hits in a. sparkling mound performance. The triumph put; the Tigers w»: games in the van. Four more victories, regardless of how many more the Yanks win, will clinch the flag for Detroit.

Hunk Grecnburg accounted for the first, Tiger run off Red R/ufiing in the fourth inning. He broke the scoreless tie by hammering his 25th home run of the season over the lcfp field fence. Rowe drove in the other tally in the fifth.

Philadelphia Athletics made it two in a row over Chicago White Sox at Chicago as Bill Dietrich pitched a six-hit shutout and the A's combin- ed 12 hits, including a homer by Frank Hayes, with seven passes for a 6-0 victory.

Dietrich allowed no Chicagoan past second base.

The Indians drove another nail into their perch on third place in the American league by defeating Washington twice, 5-4 and 9-6 at Cleveland.

It took the Indians 12 innings to defeat the badly crippled Washing- ton outfit in the first game, :1 triple by Galatzer and a single by Averill finally ending tlic contest. They overcame a. lead of five runs to win tho second.

RI$S SEEKING RETURN B ll llT WITH RRUTRNIN

Decision Giving Jimmy Welter- weight Title Is Main Topic In Sport Cir- cles.

By Eddie Brletz, Associated Press Sports Writer (By Guardian's Special Wire)

NEW YORK, Sept. la -'Ii1e big question along Broadway and cauli- flower row today was who W011 the Jimmy McLarnin-Barlicy Ross wel- terweight championship fight.

In pubs, cigar stores and pool roomsjtlic fight. faithful gathered to agree or disagree with the decision that cost Ross his title and once again placed the Vancouver" Irish- man in the glare of the flstic spot- light.

‘Ihc pay-oil was on McLarnin. But a number of fight writers at the ringside thought Ross should have had a draw.

While the arguments raged the battered principals in the 15 rounds of furious milling did quick fade- outs.

Ross, surrounded by relatives and handlers, flew by aeroplane to Chi- cago to spend the Jewish holiday, Yom Kippur, beginning at midnight. The new champion, so the rzanager of his hotel volunteered, ate five pounds of grapes for breakfast and then went to nearby Westchester for two clays of golf and relaxation.

Each carried away something to remember the other by. McLarninZ-s left eye was almost. closed, which wil1'not be so good for his putting, and Ross sported a nifty shiner, partly concealed by a pair of dark glasses, and a badly cut lip.

Art Winch and Sam Plan, major domos of the Ross camp, remained in town to collect their end of the purse and start the ball rolling for a return match.

"We're all burned up over that decision," Plan said, “and we're de- manding another go at McLarnin the minute Pop Foster will let him fight. We obliged Jimmy with a. quick return bout and we expect the same treatment."

Manager Foster was a bit wary in committing himself on a retu-n bout, although Jimmy said immedi- ately after the fight that he is wil- ling to accommodate Ross whenever a bout can be arranged.

Because Endeavour established a new record for the triangular course as well as a new record for the windward leg in a cup series, it follows she is the fastest, sweet- est sloop afloat in the weather of today. ,

Sopwith. won his second race at the start. when he, or more pre- cisely Mrs. Sopwith, timed the starting signal more accurately than Vanderbilt. The latter, in his eagerness to get the weather berth, Jlbed for the line a trifle too soon. He succeeded in establishing him- self in the weather berth but in doing so he was forced to kill his way. Emdeavour crossed the line like a. thing alive, forging through the lee of the more slowly moving Rainbow. "

Van- derbilt tried all the tricks of the game but, was obliged to content himself with a view of the gradu- ally receding lines of the chal- lengers after overhang. At the first mark he was trailing Sopwith by 16 seconds. Finally he adopted Sopwiths head-sail plan and seemed to do better.

At the end, however, the big blue-hulled Britisher had a lead of 51 seconds over her striving rival. Times for the SO-mlie run were:
