CHARLOTTETOWN MAY 13, 1949 It was announced yesterday, that represintatives frcm Charlotte- town and Summerside will leave Sunday for Amherst. N.S., where they will attend another meeting 0f the newly fortnerd Maritime Border Base-ball League. to meet there Sunday afternoon with other League representatives for the pur- pose of drawing up the League schedule and discussing other mat- ters pertaining to future league activities. O O l With four teams, Amherst. Sprlnghlll, Charlottetown and Summerside, already entered in the League, it is understood that the Suna-merside Air Station has also made application for entry into the loop, and it is the general opinion here that their application will be readily accepted which will make it a five-team league, with still possllbilities cf it being a six- teztn loop if mint Josrph, N.B. decide to come in too. - o o If the calibre of ball played is equall to the enthusiasm shown in tho formation of the league and the large showing of team entries for competition. the Border Lea- gue should experience a very suc- cessful season in its first year of operation. O O I A letter was received recently by this columln from Mr. Jauics Pen- dergast, Kensington, well-known former Island athlete and boxer as well as an ardent sports follower and supporter The following are some interesting excerpts: . o o "There have been quite a few items of ilnterest written by sports writers relative to the boxing CHI- eer of the great Canadian-born pugilist. Sam Langford. 1 can heartily agree with their generous accounts of his ability; although I never saw him in an actual ring contest, I had stiff workouts with him every day for two weeks. I found him a perfect gentleman in the training arena. He was then training to meet Philadelphia's Jack O'Brien in a New York ring. O O I "They were getting eight to ten thousand dollars there in those days (1908), alnd Sam had to take off quite a bit of weight to get down in O‘Brien's class of middle- weight (158). He took off 14 pounds in the first road run (10 miles), principally through the agency of a long strip of flannel wound many times around his mid- sectiorn. However, the New York bout was declared off. on some pretext or another. .-.Sam had hard luck that way..they were all scared of ‘him I don't believe he ever got a chance at a big purse. unless it was in Australia. He went there in the faill of 1911, he and Porky Flynn, and their manager Joe Woodman. They were in the act of boarding the Zealandla for Australia. from a Vancouver pier, when 1 met them. I had just come down by C.P.R. boat from Stag- way. so we just had a few minutes of conversation, and I never heard after how they got. along, O O “Sam was s rt '1 1-2in_ tall and extraordinarily broad across the shoulders; ‘he was a glutton for faithful. hard training. He took about two hours road work in the morning. .swung his arms like a man chopping wood. and Ill“ dinner. a. session of sltlppl-ng, cried- icine-balll, and punching on the light bag; the heavy bag was notin vogue then. After that. he would finish off with a few rounds with sparring partners‘. _ "The sport writers gave Boston trainers all the credit for Sam's boxing ability. but perhaps they did not lnnow that Sam put in seven years in loggirg camps in the State of Maine, when he built up his powerful body, shoulders and arms, for hitting power."

May 1c - (AP) - Are you wondering why Wuh- ington Senators are playing base- ball like champions? It's simply a "reaction to frustration." Tlhatfla the explanation given by one of the United States’ top mychlatrista Dr. Winfred Over- holser, superintendent of 5t. Eliz- abeth's Mental Hospital here. The Sena-tors were just frust- rated, said the doctor, when they lost seven games straight at the beginning of the season. 'I‘helr reaction is what's handed Chicago two lickings, St. Louis three. Cleveland three and Detroit one. Asked if this reaction is only temporary. Ovcriholser replied: "N0. not necessarily. It could go on indefinitely." The doctor said he is not a sports fan him-self, but under. stands the amazing resurgence of Clark Griffith's stalwarts. “When a-n individual suffers beating after beating, there are two courses open," he said. “He can either lie down and admit de- or.

The previous year our team won the Inter-Maritime match at Bediford range near Hali- fax, with a score orf 742. Nova scotla was in second place with 727 and New Brunswick had 706 points.

J. D. Cameron of Truro, in memory of his daugh- ter, the late Mrs. Call Vinni- combe.
