The Braves be lieve the defence will be successful and so do the _thousands of loyal Milwaukee fans everywhere. fThe battle opens my the friend- ly confines of Milwaukee’s County Staduum and theres no doubt whom the huge portion of spectators will be howling for this afternoon.

These pupils of Haney wull be out again to prove that the Bombers are vuncmable—so vunerable that the baseball championship of the world wﬂl.rest in Milwaukee another year. The Yankees don’t go along With that theory and theywill endeavour to show the Braves and their admirers that last year’s happenings should never have occurred.

TORONTO (OP .l- ~Mla na-ging di- .rect0r Lew Hayman of the Tor- onto Argonaut Football. Club said Tuesday the Big Four team could finish the season in. third. place and that he won't fire coach Hamp Pool.

Furthermore. he said in an in: terview, he wouldn’t trade- his team for the Ottawa Rough Ri- der or Montreal Alouette teams.

Questioned concerning the sad state of the lasthlace team with a 1958 record of one victory in seven starts, Hayman admitted that the team appears to be con- fused and bewildered.

“But it is ridiculous even to contemplate” firing Pool, he said. “Any club that fires a coach in mid—season is finished. You might as well give up."

He added that the team is (healthy and that he. is convinced it can make the three-team play— offs. Argonauts meet the third:— . place Alouett-es here this Satur- day in the eighth, game of the 14— game schedule.

After seven ] e a a u c games. Hamilton Tiger-Cats lead with 13 points on six. victories and one 1'9. Ottawa is second with eight points

“I’m a changed pitcher." said Spahn. "I’ll try ’my changes against the Yankees.”

Both clubs did their heaviest scoring in the Milwaukee park a year ago. It; is 320 feet down the left field line, 402 to deepest; centre and 311.5 to right. A six—foot wire fence cur-ls around the out- field.

DOWN THE '

BACK STRETCH

With. Monday night’s racing at the Charlottetown track. they pulled down the curtain for this season. and we feel sure horse- men and spectators will agree with us that it has been a very active and pleasurable one from start to finiser

The horsemen raced for more money than in other yea-rs — we understand. the total was more than $80,000 ~ and there were very few postponements. Our congratulations to the president, Dr. J. T. Lantz, manager H. .T. Kennedy, the remaining direc- tors, and E. Frank Acorn, race secretary arid classifier. Also the officials who handled the meet- ings so capably.

LOOKING BACK

As we were thinking about It yesterday afternoon. we went back in memory to the days when it was thought that. exhibi- tions should be held, the last week. in September or the. first week in October. The reason giv— en was that the roots, vegetabl: es, and fruits would be better ready for exhibition then. e stores advertised the heavier clothing and other necessities, and oftimes we had. (to wear overcoats order to keep com- fortable.

Occasionally there would be good weather, and one of the meetings that we recall. With the greatest pleasure was the exhibi- tion of 1920, the racing dates of which. were September 28, 29 and 30 and October 1 and 2. 0 or Island track was very popular then, and. horsemen and horses came from all parts of the Mari- times to race here.

The best drivers took paul. and John Willard. then the top driver in Maine, brought his string '0»? horses. The purses were quite good. considering the value of the dollar then by present stand- ards, and they wene from $500 to $600 a.’ race, the total amount» ing to $6,600.

Among the great: horses (h at took part in that. meet-mg was the trotter Bill Sharon, that won both the 2.16 Trot and Free-Won A11 Trot for driver Peter Car— roll; Colorado L. (H.

I ‘ NEW Y ORK (AP) cm. D’Amato believes he is going to hit the championship jackpot for the second time with an Olympic boxer.

The crewlcut, while - haired manager guided Floyd Patterson to the world heavyweight tine four years after the Brooklyn bomber won the Olympic middle- weight orown at Helsinki in 1952.

Now Cus is confident he can turn the trick again with Jose Torres, Pue-r-to Rican born runner-up for the Olympic light middleweight champion 5 hip at

Melbourne in 1956.

Patterson built up from 165 pounds to a heavyweight. Torres, however, is a natural middle weight in D’Amato’s opinion.

“Torres is almost as good as Patterson was at a similar stage of his pro career,” said D’Amatu “I think Jose can go all the way. He is a fine boxer, hits hard if not as hard as Floyd, and has wonderful poise."

Patterson won his five fights by knockouts and then had a tough time beating veteran

Torres, m, and five feet, 1! inches, has swept his first six fights, four of them by knockouts. He. was scheduled for his first to round bout Monday night but only had to go five in stopping Otis Woodard of New York.

Torres drew the first boxing sellout at St. Nicholas Arena in, _, 11 years Monday night. A crowd, of 3,216 paid $7,174. The fight wasn’t telecast, which helped at tendance.

Tomes uses the Patterson box ing style. He keeps his gloves in front of his face with his arms protecting his body and fights out of a semi-crouch. When he opens up, he lashes out with both hands at' terrific speed. Then he goes back into his protective shell.

The big question is: C‘n he takv a punch?

“We’ll have to wait: and see,“ said Cus. "no one has been able to belt him solid in his pro fights yet. And remember this. he worked out with Patterson."

Racing was very different in those days; there was a lot’of scoring, and we think the record for most scores is held by Mon— tague track where. in a free-for— all race in which Vesta Boy 2.02 was a starter and I drove the trotter, Dr. Sharper, there were 21 scores for one heat.

Tattersalls’ catalogue for its annual sale of standardbred year- lings, which is being held from September 26 )to October 2 at Lexington. Ky, has (been receiv— ed here and il conlains the lay- gest number of entries we have ever seen in a standardibred sale at Lexington. They number 352, including 72 from C a s 1 I e I o n Farm; 24 from Fairrneade Farm: 12 (from Frost Hill Farm, where Scott Frustz was born: 9 from the C. F. Gaines Farm; 54 from Wal~ nut Hall Farm; 25 from Walnut Hall Stud; 18 from Poplar Hill Farm; 52 from Pickwick Farms; and numerous others.

We expect to see some of slime yearlings sell for $20,000, and we believe that the average will bring the total-sale value up to the vicinity of one million dolv tars.
