The us. authorities agreed that their rules are no! acceptable in Canada because of the different racing seasons.

On May M. 1949. he came through in lnother pinch with the stakes not quite so high. With two out and the score tied at; l3 to 13 (No it wasn't basketball) in the game with St. Joseph's. Russ stepped to the plate and drove out a clean single driving in the run that won and stopped the ball game.
