Two experts that have put in over e hundred years in training and racing trotters are Ben White. noted race driver and trainer of two and three-year-olds, who is 74, and his assistant Guy Hensley who is 58 years old. They are getting ready for the Grand Cir- cuit meet at Goehen track next week.

Knights Defeat Kinsmen, Hopes Alive Keep Playoff “Fat." Connors’ hustling band of K. of C. juniors upset the Junior League applecart last night at the Memorial Field diamond by a score of 3-2 and in doing so kept their playoff hopes alive. The winners fighting all the way pounded the offerings of Lnc Kinsmen hurier for five hits tne hardest of which was "Beau Jack" Mat-Donald's long single into right field which accounted for two runs. All the scoring was confin- ed to two innings. the second and the fourth. In the second inning the Knights jumped on Currie for three hits and these coupled with two errors and a pair of fielder's choices accounted for three runs. The winners loaded the bases on two hits and a field- er's choice to set the stage for MacDonald's long wallop. Thcy kept the rally going as Pryor was safe on a fielders choice and lat- er scored with the winning 111:1 as Nicholson was safe on another Kinsmen error. The losers fighting back came within one run of tying up tnc game as they scored two runs m the fourth inning on a double, an infield-out, an error and a wad pitch by MacKenzle. In the last inning they put. two players or. base with two out but. Waiiie Shepherd playing in the left field outer garden made a beautift.‘ catch on Rossitens line drive to make the final out. of the game. Sorrel thatched Merlin MacKen- zée, the winner's ace righthander pitched a beautiful two-hit ball game and was backed up by brit- iiant. fielding by his teammates. The slim hurler was in trouble only in the fourth inning when the Kinsmen touched his offer- ings for two runs. MacKenzie struck out. eight batters and walk- ed but two others. Frankie Curr... on the mound for the losers pitch- ed a good brand of ball allowing Lut five hits but costly errors resulted in the winning run being scored against him. Brian Lewis. sturdy centre fielder of the Kinsmen hit a. doub- le in the fourth inning to account for the longest hit of the game. Three nice plays were turned in ry the Knights one of which was C. MacDonald's lovely one hand staib of Stuii's vicious grounder that seemed destined for a. but. hit.

Two Swedish runners finished one-two in the 1.500 metres ' to prove again that Finland's 24-year hold on distance races has been broken. And schoolboy Bob Mathias. the 17-year.old California sensation. outscored the decathlon field in a. gruelling. two.day chain of 10 events to earn the right to call himself best all-round man in track and field. This, in summary. is the seventh- day Olympic record: but much more happened. Nine titles were decided. Preliminaries set the- stage for nine championships tomorrow. ending the track and swimming programs of the games. Canadians compete in four: The marathon. the men's and women's relays and the women's high jump. Mrs. Blankers-Koen. mother of two children and-at 30-the old- est woman in this year's competit. ion, won the zoo-metre dash today. establishing a record of 24.4 sec- onds for this new event for women.
