n In Hockey

(By w. n. Wheatlsy)

‘ MONTREAL, Aug. 23 -—(CP)— Elmer Lach, who amassed an un- ‘onvied assortment of plain and fancy fractures during a nine-year iNational Hockey League career, has recalled his retirement declar- intion and will return to the ice wars.

General manager Frank Seike of jionironl Canadiens said today iLach will report to Canadiens‘ itraining camp at St. Hyacinthe. jQutx, Sept. 15. l The decision

was left entirely to Lach, who twice suffered a fractured jnw last season. De- ispondent pver his series of mis- tfortunes and missing the Stanley ‘Cup playoffs, Lach announced his retirement after the close of the 3 season.

i Complete recovery and a flam- ,ing competitive spirit have caused lLach to change his mind. Along with other members of the squad he will undergo n thorough medl- cal cxaminafion before the train- _ing season starts, but it is known ihn already has the approval of this personal physician.

i The return of the starry, 31- ycar-old centre player will holster the chances of the team that nt the moment is pretty much in- tact frcm last season.

Although Canadians, rich in cap- able defencemen, would not be adverse to a deal that would bring more forward-line strength, there is no official inkling of any swaps, purchases or sales.

Lach played in only 36 games last season, scoring 11 goals and having 18 assists. His jaw was first fractured in a game -at the Forum with Chicago Black Hawks Dec, 11. His jaw was wir- ed. he wore awkward iron clamps and lived on a liquid diet for several weeks.

He was back in February. A minor jolt to the jaw put him out for another couple of games. Back he came again, and in the last scheduled game of the season at Detroit Lach‘s same jaw was again cracked.

That shelved him for the play- offs and the third-place Cana- diens lost to the Red Wings in a grim. seven-game Stanley Cup semi-final.

With the Old Home Week rac-

ing program concluded for an- other year, the island horserocing circuit will swing into action again today, when the scene shifts to the Montague track where four packed classified events and two dashes will line up behind the starting gate ready to take the word from the official starter. - e o The first. event on the card will be the No. One Classified race with seven top-notch starters 1n- cluding Josedalc Hoosier, Prince Budlong. Billy McVeigh, Ola Bud- long- Eleanor (3.. Filbert and AC. Scotltfl while the No. Two Classified event will see such well-known trotters and pacers as Donald G.R., Tennessee Sue, Ohio Hal, Eva Worthy, Rosalie Hooper, Billy Conn. Shy Ann 2nd, and Jessica Direct 2nd.. battle it out over the mile distance. e e e 1n the No. Three and Four Classified events, there will be a host of classy entries which are far too numerous to mention, the former having a total of 11 start- ers and the latter heralding the large field of 14 starters, while in the two dash events, although the starters were not released at time of writing, some six entries in each event are expected. e a e So you can see for yourselves. from the above cross-section of today's card. that. there should be plenty of action for racing fans at the Montague track this after- noon. if all classes get away as listed. More of the sensational racing duels that have been in vogue here all summer are expect- ed to be reenacted there today. The first race is slated to get un- derway alt 2 p.m. sharp. - e .

Chalking up their second straight victory in as many games. .the Charlie Ryan coached Knights of Columbus ball club advanced well out in front of the Junior City Baseball League champion- ship ‘playoffs by handing out an 11-2 drubbing to the Charlotte- town Victorias at the Memorial Field diamond last evening, after taking the opening game of the series from the Vics by a 6-2 count on the same diamond Sun-

day afternoon. I I I O

With a comfortable two-game lead in the best of seven series. it looks very much like the Knights are going to be the new City junior champions, and helms- man Charlie Ryan will score his second consecutive year as coach of the championship team, hav- ing piloted the 17th. Reece Regt. team to the ‘junior; title last year.

I I

As far us‘ last night's game is concerned, the Knights showed definite superiority in all around play throughout. Holding a 3-1 lead ac the end of the fourth and picking up another ~run in the fifth, they busted the game wide open in the sixth when they blasted home six runs while lim- iting their opponents to their final run of the game in the last half of the same frame, and coming back to counter again in the next canto, definitely put the game away in the well known “bag" with both ends securely tied.

I I I O

However, there are at least two more games to play befors the series is decided, and anything can happen yet, particularly with Harry "Had" Mclnnls holding down the pilot's seat on the Vics machine. He is quits capable of j coming up with some startling "hat tricks" which might pull his club out of the fire yet and make it a close finish for the league title.

Hurricanes In iii-ll Victory Over

ourieux. Hurricane pitcher. allow- ed only two hits in the seven inn- ings. one to Junior Cahill in the sixth and one to Donnie Simmons in the seventh. Simmons, pitching for the Anchors. gave up twelve hits in six innings and Rankie Oat- way was touched fos- four hits in one inning. Spears and Hughes were the leading clotstera on the Afrfoms aggregation. each getting three hits in four trips. Kerr hit 2 for 8, Lamouricisx 3 for 5 and Hofstrand 2 for 0.

THE GUARDIAN, CHARLOTTETOWN

Upsets Feature Play At Maritime Amateur Golf Tournament '

MONCTON, N.B., Aug. 2i -(CP) _ Today turned out to be giant killing day in the i949 Maritime amateur now in progress at the Moncton Golf and Country Club.

Many of the pre-tournament fav- orites fell by the wayside. mostly to Moncton players whose know- ledge of the course and experience in playing under windy conditions asserted itself as the tournament moved through the first and sec- ond rounds.

Most spectacular upset of the" day was the defeat in first round play of P.C. Kelly, outstanding New Brunswick golfer, and second low qualifier in the meet, by John Wolstenholme of Moncton.

In the last stages of the play Kelly came back from a dormle two position to square the matbh by winning the 17th and 18th holes. Both players halved the 19th hole but Wolstenholm holed a spectacular 30-foot putt on the 20th hole to win the match.

M.J. (Mousie) Dowling of Char- lottetown, qualifying round medal- list, was defeated, one up, by ELE. Jobinen, of the Moncton Club. Jobinen, who is one of the best of Monotone golfers. found his game today and eliminated Dowling on the last green.

W.S.J. Crawford, last year's‘, runner up, was defeated one up by 1 Ralph W. Lister, Monctorfs club, champion, B.W. lsner, defcatedi the Nova Scotia champion. EH.‘ Croweil, of Halifax Ashburn Club.

The other pro-tournament fav- orites, Nesbitt (Nip) Ross lire de- fending champion, R11. Hurley of Moncton and L. Beatty of Wood- stock, survived the first two rounds and entered the quarter finals.

Tomorrow's draw places Jobinen against Harley, Isner against Beatty, Ross against RC. Duch- emin of the Sydney Club who came through with two steady scores of approximately 74 and '77 to defeat R. Rae, Nova Scotia junior cham- pion. and P.D. MacNaughton of the Moncton Club.

Sport Echoes

From Princ Bounty

Kenslngton defeated Kinkora in a. Prince County League play-off game by the score of 11 to 6. but we have learned that the game will not count because it wen‘. only six innings and those playoff en- counters must run at. lotist seven innings. This is rather a tough break for Kensington but regulat- ions are regulations. The boys wasted enough time fooling around before the game started to get ill that extra inning. frown now on it will be pretty difficult to get a twilight game to run seven innings unless a prompt and early start is made. I I I 0

Sheen & Mclnnis and the RCA. F. Red Sox are tied with one game apiece in their semi-final series for the championship of the Summer- side Town League. The mr-men beat the Juniors two games out one of these was thrown out because of a misinterpretation of a rule. The boys will prcibaloly get to a final decision in the game which they play this (Wednesday) evening. The winner will take on the P. C A], Blue 5.2x for.th'e league title.

Boxing comes back to Summer- side Saturday night when the Sum- merside mitt artists and their rivals from Charlottetown two-step around each other awaiting opportune moments to thump each other as mulch as possible. There are some talented young artists in both camps and the going should be brisk and full of entertaining act- ion. I I I I

Today (Wednesday) the old rivals of the baseball diamond. nre once more pitted against each other in the final struggle for Isrmd supremacy. The Curran 8r Briggs team is after all only 1948's All- Srtars under a different name. Some of the Maritime Champions have retired from the some. but most of them are still out there taking their cuts at he bail. There are a few new faces in the line-up but not many. The same can be said of Charlottetown. Last year's AiiStars are just arbour. the some crew that fought such a Herculean struggle with our boys for the tight to carry the island colors into the fight for Maritime honors. The stage is all set for another mighty duel, and today will see the first battle in this epic war. The Cur- ran 8c Briggs baseball stands will no doubt be packed to ca/paclty for this first encounter. _

Russ Phancuf hasn't played much ball this year and does not as yet seam to feel at home in the outer pastures. Once he made an error in centre field, and once he was slow coming in for a fly to right field. but on each occasion" Phanelilfs heavy hittins at the plate made the fans forget aibout his miscues before the some was over. With a little more practice Russ will get into the groove in outfield fly chasing. and his hitting may play an important part in the coming bmporiaut 5.61:5-

Wea-e rather disappointed that Wendell Maoliadyen of the Curran do Briggs Iihnn team didn't have a try-out with the C dz B first string aggregation. After seeing Joe MoGinn malts the grade in the way he did we feel sure that Wendell would have fitted. into Charlie Hogan's team very well. Mac- Fadyen has one of the best batting eyes in the business. Against the

wouldn't reduce it below the .300 mars. He is a smooth fielder and can do a spot of pitching which might also get by in the fast cir- cuit. Altogether a pretty valuable utility man. With the chips now definitely down the C d.
