Maritime members of the 1958 Dominion of Canada Rifle As- sociation Bisley Team meet the Association President Maj. A.B. coulter, (centre) of Ottawa, shortly before sailing for Eng- land, Members of the team were The Big Batters Had Rough June NEW YORK (AP) —- June brings to mind honeymoons but such outstanding major league batters as Stan M-usial. Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra and Gil McDougald have had little about which to cel- ebrate this month. After making hay in May. these stars, along with Eddie Mathews, Diclk Groat, Sherm Lol- lar and Bob Cerv, went into a swoon in June. In sharp contrast, such nor- mally mediocre hitters as Sony Hemus, Andy Carey, Rocky Bridges, Rocky Coluavito, Willie Jones and Don Zimrmer have been hotter than this first sum- 04’ mer month usually is. Also on the torrid side have been Duke Snider, Ted Williams, Al Kaline, Frank Malzone, Ernie Banks and the St. Louis " Cardinal roolkie, Gene Green. ‘ On June 1, Musial was batting a lusty .431. During the next two weeks he was able to collect only‘ 10 hitsrin 46 times at bat (.217) and his average dropped 52 points to a current .379. Willie Mays’ decline (from June 6) has been even sharper. In his last 10 games, Mays has h-ad only five hits, all singles, in 38 times at bat (.132) and his average has plummeted from .433 to .385. During that time Willie hasn't driven in a single run. Mantle’s 17 hits in 62 at bats has reduced his batting average from .297 to .282. Berra averaged ISLANW a‘ mere .186 (11 of 59) in June guests of the Association at a luncheon in Ottawa following which they were inspected by I-Ion. George Pearkes.

McDoug- alcl’s .214 since May 31 has shrunk his average 40 points to .310. Groa-t’s June average is -194. _Ma-thelws’ is .235 and Lol- lar’s IS .269 as is Cerv’s. The lat- f‘9_I‘.

Undoubtedly the hottest hitter In the majors right now is Hemus, the little pepperpot of Philadelphia Phillies. The 34- year-old Texan -amassed 22 hits 111 46 times at bat, a blazing, .478 pace. ran up an unfinished string 16 consecutive hitting games, $131311 raised his season mark to Carey. inserted in the New York Yankee lineup when Jerry Lumpe was injured, also went on a_ batting tear. He banged out 25 hits in 61 times at bat (.410) and boosted his average 91 points to .299. Snider, hampered the early- part of the season by an ailing knee, has hit for a .406 average this month and raised his figure to .287. Another .400 June hitter has been Green, who is now .336 for the year. Williams, off to his slowest start in the ,majors. pulled up. from .069 to .292 with a .362 June splurge. Colavito has boos-ted his average 40 points to .314, Jones 47 to .313, Malzone 37 to .297. Kaline 33 to .298, Bridges 23 to .321, Zimmer 17 to .312 and Banks 15 to .318. Rifle-men Seeking Title Saturday The Maritime Rifle Champoin- ship won last June by the New .ck riflemen, is up for grabs £11.-is Saturday June 21 at Squaw Point Range. The New Brunswickers won the Inter-Maritime championship at the Sussex Range in June of 1957, with n -score of 800 out of 1 possible 840. This was the fourth occasion on which the 800 mark has been reached in the 58 meetings between the three pro- vioces. On previous occasions the mar- ked was surpassed twice by New Brunswick, once in 1955 when they established a record high with 808 points and also back in 1937 when their total was 804. III 1936, Prince Edward Island marlcsmen compiled an aggre- gate of 302, shooting on their home range. Inaugurated in 1886, with the exlception of the wa-r years, the three eight man teams have met regularly on the third Saturday of each June. ‘ ‘During that time the Nova Sco- an contingent has annexed the ‘Waited trophy on 26 occasions. Prince Edward Island has held the charnpionship 16 times as have the mlarksmen from New lmswick. WIN The last occasion for the Island ".‘3II‘ks1nen to capture the top hmiors was in 1954, at Sussex.
