Lesnevich Gives Mauriello Bad Beating

NEW YORK. Oct. 31- (AP)- Gus Lesnevicli, the light-heavy- weight champion, gave Tami Maurlello a brutal heating in Madison Square Garden tonight and forced referee Ruby Golilstcin to halt the massatrc early in the seventh round to save the bulbous Bronx heavyweight further pun- ishment. Lesnevich weiglicd 1S0 l-‘Z, Mauriello 201 l-_._

The seventh round was only 33 seconds old when Golds-ttein took pity on the reeling. bloody Maur~ icilo and stepped between the two men. The crowd llilii liccn yelling fur him to stop it even before the sixth round closccl.

MONCTON NB

NOVEMBER. 1, 1947

The opening day of the pheas- ant season on the 28th saw birds plentiful in some sections and quite a few Cocks found their way into gunners’ bags. The kill dropped off sharply after the first morning and any birds secured from then on were well earned.

I I I

The Hun season. opened amonth earlier and the pheasants had lots of time to get gun wise. With 3 days of the 5 day season already past. many gunners are still pheas- antless....thls scribe included in the number. The opening morning saw the writer and two compan- ions parked on a secondary dirt rcad waiting for shooting _light. We knew that there were a num- ber of Cocks in the vicinity but two. hours of intensive hunting yielded nary a sight of one. .

I I I

Guns were barking at intervals from all points of the compass but we arrived back in the City at 8.45 without even smelling powder although some gunners were burn- ing plenty of it. When the Hun season first opened, Sambo, the German Short Haired Pointer, nosed'out a fair number every time he was taken for a run, but I noticed as the season progressed he ran into them less often.

I I I

On the evening of October 1st he went on poin-t by the side of a dyke on the edge of a stubble ﬂeld and looking over I espled four gawky young Cocks, just begin- ning to sport their bright colours, eyeing the dog from a distance of six feet. They finally flushed and chattered off across a pasture field to the shelter of a section of scrubby woodland with their im- mature tall fcathers barely clear- ing the ground.

I I I

We saw their tracks in a sandy ditch by the roadside on the op- ,ening morning which were quite [fresh and on the evenfng of the lsecond day noticed where one, or

more, of tlicm had dined on an lapplc that. had apparently been idiscarded by some kiddie on the way to school, but the birds them-

selves were not to be found. I I I

l The pheasant sometimes looks ivory simple when one hasn't a shotgun but its a different matter when you try to take advantage of one of those seeming innocent bards feeding by the roadside. The afternoon of the second day saw Info driving along the road with s companion. Sucha thing as pheas- iants were not even dreamed of as it. was in a much travelled area... but I had the gun in the car Just in case. ~

l l

Passing a small stubble field wherein a few sheaves had been left lying on the ground I rubbed my eyes when I saw two Cocks as big as small turkeys feeding of! one of the sheaves within 10 feet of the roadside fence. The car braked to a stop and I lost no time in getting out. As I slipped two shells into the breech of the Winchester double I muttered to myself: “Here's where 1 get a pheasant dinner supposing I have to shoot one on the ground" (I have yet to get one). When I jumped over the ditch they had already marathoned it to the shelter of the fence row. They ran down the ditch till they were out of range and then flew oﬂ into the unknown, cackling deris- ively.

I I I

M!’ time is booked until the last day so my chances of outwitting one of tho big Cocks in the last few hours of the season are slim indeed- If I draws. blank for three seasons in a row I'm very much afraid my better half will ion faith in mo entirely. Sho bll been referring to me this past two days as: "Nimrod the mighty hunter....PEiR.IOD". Checking up 1 ﬁnd that my experiences have been shared by many others ....so I'll not be a Daniel after all.

The trapping season on mink and muskrat opens on the morn- ing this column will appear in print-Saturday, November 1st. There appears to be a goodly number o! mink on the rounds but muskrats are not plentiful. One will find a few favoured spots where water and food is abundant and to whence the ‘rats’ have ml- grated from dryed out areas, where the valuable furbearers are abundant. but the general outlook on the muskrat situation is glum indeed. The hunting season on rabbits opens on December 1st. Tho Ruﬂed Grouse season closes on Friday, October 31st. The pheasant season runs one day into November and closes on Saturday evening. Ruffed grouse, generally referred to as Native Partridge, are only reasonably plentiful. Certain sections where the birds were al- lowed protection during tho close season sport a considerable num- her of birds, but October's foliage tends to prevent the hunter from securing more than the odd tro- phy.

The Box official, who served u interim commissioner following tho death of Judge Kenesaw Moun- tain Landls until Chandler was appointed here April 24. 1945. said he would ask a restraining order next week in Federal Court at Cincinnati.

O'Connor’: announcement came after an American Lea-sue meet- ing at which the club owners, by a 7-0 vote, authorized President Will Harcidge to appoint a new league representative to baseball's executive council, replacing the Chicagoan.

President Harridge declared:

"From now on, any action ls Mr. 0'Conncr's personal buslness_ and that of the White 80x. Like all business, baseball is anxious to stay out of the courts, but the Am- erican League cannot prevent any member club from going into court. .-

Gordan Wins 10-Round Decision

CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 31 -—(AP) -Marcel Ccrdan, European ‘mid- dle-weight champion, tonight sur- vived three last round knockdowns and maintained liis perfect United States ring record with a loudly- booed Iii-round decision over Anton Ruudik of Estonia before 9.172 fans at Chicago Stadium.

Cerdan weighed I60, Raadlk 161 1/2.

After carrying the fight to the stubborn Raadik most of the way, the handsome Frenchman tired badly and was tagged by round- house rights in the final round

which sent him down — once for a four count, and twice for counts of three.

Cordon was wobbling in a daze, after climbing up from the last knockdown, when tho bell ended

_fhe fight.

It was Cerdun's fourth triumph in his American campaign for the middleweight crown of Rocky Gruziano and his 100th victory in 102 bouts.

Rnadik also appeared on the verge of being knocked out sev- eral timcs in the wild battle.

Referee Davey liiiller votcd 53 to 47 for Cordon and the two judges accorded the Frenchman votes of 55 to 45 and 53 to 47.

O'Connor and the White so,‘ were suspended Oct. 29 foi- i311. ure to pay a $500 fine levied 5CD; 26 for the signing of a Chicago high school south-paw pitcher by m. club.

O'Connor, a lawyer, cited bass. ball law that only students in member schools of the National Federation of High sciiooi A550“ lations were under the ban, while the youth signed by the White 50x was in a private school.

Chandler, however, cited the fact that in two bulletins early {M5 year he had informed club Owner‘ he would interpret the rule to cov. er all high school students. O'Con- nor, in preliminary correspondence with Chandler, challenged tbs Commissioner's right to broaden the rule without permission oi iii. two major leagues. He said today lie would base his court fight oi; that premise.
