Rovers themselves. while not performing as well as was expected of them nevertheless still have a wealth of baseball talent to throw at. the westend crew and if manager Freddy Whalen can get his crew hitting on all cylinders fans are very liable to witness a much more closer playoff series than they are now expecting. 1' i- + 4- Knighis of Columbus juniors came to the and of the trail ac. far as a playoff berth was con- corned when they bowed to the Reccecn Monday night but fans who have watched the bunch o; youngsters in action all season are quick to realize that they saw a hard fighting junior squad in action. Composed for the most part of players with very little experience the team forced tne other two teams to the limit in a big majority of their tuaies slid if coach Fat Connors can hold this same band together he will have a mighty capable junior squad by the time next season rolls around.

The Northenders bowed to the league leading Anchors by a score of 4-0. Thus the West-end crow kept their winning ways of the league intact. The Anchors have lost but one game in the en- tire schedule. In last night's game three un- earned runs in the opening inn- ing paved the way for the loser's downfall, The winners added an- other run 1n the second to make sure of the verdict. It was a pitch- ers duel for the remainder of the game as both hurlers, Charlie Ryan of the Anchors and Jackie Cairns of the Rovers baffled the hitters with their fast balls and sweeping curves. Ryan, the winning pitcher. pitched a beautiful two hit ball game and Cairns almost matched the farmer's impressive victory as he allowed but five hits over the five and’a half inning game. Ryan struck-out three batters and hit one while Calms rwhiffed two and walked another player. Donnie MacLcan, playing in right field hit. his second homer THE GUARDIAN. ' CHARLOTTETOWN‘ Charlie Ryan’s Two- Hit Pitching Sets Rovers Down 4-0 of the season as he hit a hard drive over Trainer's head that rolled all the way down the road in right field to give the pitcher- outfielder his home run. Only other extra bass hit of the game was "Sneakers" Mclennanh double in the first inning. Only batters to solve the slants of Ryan's were Johnny Higson who rifled a single into centre field and "Buck" Whitlock who beat out an infield grounder. The winners with two out put two runners on the bases and when l-fennessey dropped Math- eson's high Texas Leaguer_after he made a very long run from deep centre field, the Anchors got to the offerings q! Cairns for two more hits and scored three times. In the second inning Manliean hc-isted his home run to put an end to the scoring for the night. There was no one hitter able to notch two hits of! the opposing moundsmen as they proved too much of an obstacle for the pow- erhouse hitters on both teams to overcome. Whitlock and Aubrey Dolron provided the fielding gems of the garns as both turned in spectac- ular catches for their team. Doiron made two catches in left field.

Three umpires, Jim- mie l-Iogan, Reg Phillips and Glennie DesRoches, played for the Benedicts and demonstrated that. in spite of what the fans ae say- ing, they are still able to keep their e-ye on the hall, Phillips was in his old position behind the plate, (He just. took one step ‘backwards when he retired and became an umpire), and did n good backstopping joh.

Atop the casket was a single spray of American Beauty roses. Ruth had come home to Yankee Stadium, there to rest un-til to- morrow night, while thousands visited the bier for a final tribute to their idol. Tlie body of Ruth, who died in New York's Memorial Center for cancer and allied diseases after an illness of nearly two years, was borne into the rotunda by eight pallbearers. The doors to the great Stadium then were closed-—and the crowd outside formed a line. waiting to be admitted for the walk past the casket. The casket rested in s section of’ the rotunda. which is about 200 feet from the Siadiumh home plate. Inside the lobby stood an honor guard of 10 Stadium police.
