Will Renew Ryder Dup " Competition

H. Quen-

PHILADETLPHIA. June L-(AP) -Presldent Ed Dudley of the Pro- fessional Golfers Association slid today the Ryder Cup golf match- es between the United States and Britain will be renewed this year if possible despite reports to the contrary. -

However, Dudley sxplslned that the British Golfers Association advised that because of l heavy schedule it will not be able to send its Ryder team over before late November. -

The British P.G.A. accepted an invitation last December to re- some the cup matches after l 10-year lapse but there had been talk o-f passing up the event due to the rising cost of living. Bri- tain's economic position and ex- pense of trans-Atlantic travel.

Revision 0f N. ll. L. Rules

MONTREAL, June I —- (CF)- Rcvi-sions designed to clarify hoc- key‘: playing rules for the 1a.! and remove certain ambiguities ivere approved today by the rules committee during the National Hockey League's annual meeting.

One provided for stopping of play immediately whenever l player closes his lil-nd on the puck. and another rtated that passes made from l team's defending zone must be completed st the red centre line to be legal. Prev- iously, under certlin circumstan- ces, passes could be legllly com- pleted to the opponents’ goal line. ‘Section (d) or rule 1o. dealing with passes in the old code, ssh-l if l player "in the some zone from which l pus l4 made is preceded by the puck into suelsd- in: zones. he elilll bl eligible to take possellifm of the puck in that zone, excqat where ‘icing the puck’ rule applies."

This would allow l. phiyer to skate from his defensive lone ls for ss his opponents’ goal ltne fol- lowing a puck passed or lint by l teammate from his own lone — provided that his team was short handedfand the "icing rule thus did not apply.

Now such passes must be com- pleted lt the red line, er the player will be called offside u he skates after the puck.

The puck handling amendments affects section (i) of rule 5'1. which previously allowed conun- ultion of plly if a player view! his hand on the Diwk 1°? 1"‘ than three seconds and dropped it lt his feet. y

Mills Defeat Ends Hopes 0f British Boxers

LONDON_ June t-(AE-Thcre was speculation in fight circles to- day that American boxers have killed the British goose that has been laying golden eggs in the ring.

Lloyd Marshall, Cleveland, de- ilvercd the eoup de grace last night ‘by making Freddie Mills. British light heavyweight champ- ‘ron, lookJike a puppet on strings. knocking him out in the fifth round.

Mills was the last big drawing card in British boxing after Joe Baksi kayoed Bruce Woodcock. British heavyweight champion, in April.

For promoter Jack Solomons, Woodcock and Mills have provid- ed sure gate attractions when matched against imported Ameri- can talent.

In the last year in which they met Lesnevich. Joe Baksi or each other, the two Britons fought to sell-out gates, with 20 guinea: ($84) charged for ringside seats.

The liberal purses for the head- liners kept up a steady parade of fighters from across the Atlantic. Lesnevlch came twice, ditto Baksi», and Ike Williams once-and many more were willing to try their hand.

Blue Train Drawn From Epsom Derby

LONDON. June d-Blue ‘Brain, the King's entry in the Epsom Derby, was scratched tonight be- cause of sore shins, leaving 1'7 probable starters in Saturday's

classic. Captain Charles Moore, the King's racing trainer, said: "With a. matter like this. one

can only vyait and see how the trouble progresses. ‘ft. is impos- sible to say when Blue Train will run again."

Three Canadians had drawn Irish Hospitals Sweepstakes tick- cis on Blue Train. Their pseudo- zlyms were "Junior". with No. AHD1513, “Julia", AA47079, and "Why Not". BA42598.

Plan lluge Treasure Hunt At Dak Island

lmprudence A/7-4 I Favorite Wins Oaks Y, Bets Against

EPEOM. Surrey. Bus. June 5- (A W-Impnldence, thiree-year-old French filly born while shells screamed over the Falalse Gap in the Battle of Normandy, today won the 165th Oak Stakes-secondary feature of the racing week to be clknlxed by Saturday's running of the derby.

A firm 7-to-4 favorite. Ionprud- once captured the 1 l-2 mile gal- lotp ovcr the derby course by five lengths to eann £7,165 (128,660) for her owner. Mme. P. Corbiere.

Netherton Maid iinlshed second. two lengths in front of Mani-bald. The winner's time on a fast track was 2.40 which appeared certain in

be "well beaten when the three- year-old colts run in the derby, greatest classic of all.

Imprud-cncc, who earlier ln the season had won the first classic

race for fillies-the 1,0110 guineas at Nowmarket-Jwas again ridden by thc Atlstraiian jockey. W. Rue Johnstonc, who flew frcim France to pilot her.

The King, Queen and the Prin- cesses were among the thousands in the bflg Oaks day crowd uihicii weathered a. heavy shower before the start of the feature race.

Each of the 11 fillies in the field carried 12G pounds. Neihcrton

Maid took an early lead but gave way to Impruderlce nfteir the first

qlmlrter of I. in-ile.

The Hench invade;- enterod the stretch s. length ahead of the field, stayed off a brief challenge by Nethertun Maid and won going away.

The King's entry, Pierrette, placed fifth.

There i; a wide gap between English fillies and colts this year and British racing fans are looking forwenl hopefully to seeing Tudor Minstrel. hot favorite for Satur- day's 1 1-2 mile derby restore Brit- ish bloodstock prestige.

The derby is run over the same course as the Oaks and reporters at Beokhamptonn Wiltshire, where Tudor Minstrel is trained, have

written this week that. the "Tudor"l

is the biggest certainty ever turned out by this famous stable.

Today's showers ITESNEHEC the grass on the Epsom track and more rain ls predicted but the course is still hard and will remain so no matter how much rain falls be- tiwccn now and Saturday.

Th0 threat of rain apparently doesn't worry anyone around Bcckham-pton. The correspondent of one London newspaper told the sports editor by telephone that if it rained from now untlil race time Tudor Minstrel would still be "the best thing ever to leave Beclchuntp- ton stables."

GEORGETOWN, British Guiana June 5—-.(ClP)—Nool‘ Mohammad. 36-year-old East Indian golcismitii, was sentenced to death today for the Sept. 17 "morning tea" mur- dcr of his second wife.

Prosecution said Mohammad put poison in his second wife's tea and also suggested that his first wife. who died suddenly

May 17, 1944. may have been im- llarly poisoned. During the three-weeks-long

trial, defence counsel argued that Mohammed's second wife had committed suicide because he had shown callousness and indiffer- ence toward her.

Defence counsel Lionel Lucklioo said he would ask permission to appeal the sentence to the Privy Council.

Meantime one of the

that had figured as a possible pthreat to the guineas-wl-rining .thrce-year-old, the King's Blue Trill". was scratched from the Epsom classic. Fred Darlinm-ace trainer of both the Minstrel and ‘Blue Train. reported that the lRoyal Horse was suffering from sore shins and "it is impossible at this moment to say when Blue ‘Train will run again.“

Tudor Minstrel closed a firm 6-5 favorite even before the news of the Train‘; scratching was known, and bcttors clamored to take him at that price. But bookies, after laying £22,000 ($88,- 000) against the public choice. turned down further bets.

Odds on Sayajirao. QtLOOO-gulnel beauty as s yearling and signifi- cant winxler of the Derby trill stakes at Lingfield recently, held solidly at 11-2.

Thus Tudor Minstrel, quoted at evens at tiie last cailover, was the only favored entry whose price shortened tonight.

The big question was what tac- tics champion jockey Gordon Richards would adopt with the Minstrel Saturday.
