Puzzled over Poor Tumoul Pl-IILADELPHIA. June 7-(AP) -Sugar Ray Robinson and Robert vlllemaln, dropping in at the ad- fice of Phil Glassman for their pay today found the promoter still puzzled over the poor turnout for last night's light. A total of 22.024 fans salw Rob- inson score a decisive victory over the Frenchman for the Pennsyl- vania version of the middleweight championship, but only 18,856 of them contributed to the gross gate of Sl19.0'f4. Giassman had hoped for a take of at least. 3150.000. the net re- ceipts won't be much above 586.000. The net just about covers the two fighters' pay for (me night. Each was guaranteed 05.000 with the privilege of 30 per cent of the gate. When promotion and other expenses are met, Glasaman won't have much. if any. to put into his own pocket... Before heading for New York. Robinson reiterated that he won't give up his welterweight title until he has been recognized everywhere as the 160-pound king. The National Boxing Association has ordered the winner of the June 28 title fight between champ- ion Jake LaMotta and Rocky Grnziano to meet Robinson within 90 days.

JUNE 8, 1950 In yesterday's official joint open- lng of the Physical Fitness Island Baseball League at Charlottetown and Summerside, the two western Capital entries kept their colors flying to cop off both ends of the double opening to share the league leadership honors in the initial standing. Curran and Briggs scor- ed their victory over the Abbies in an afternoon game at Summerside by a. 4-2 count behind the two-tilt pitching of Bill Davis. Davis. a newcomer from Springhill, N.S., turned in a masterful performance for the full nine innings rout-, striking out 15 and walking only one. Charley Ryan. the losing hurl- er also went the full game allowing five hits, striking out 10 and walk- lug three for another good per- formance on the mound despite the loss. 0 0 0 The game here last evening at Memorial Field saw Summerside R.C.A.F. come out on top of a 4-1 count over Ment's Falcons of the City. The game was called at the end of the seventh due to darkness. It was a close game all the way except for two costly er- rors by Falcons in the fourth inn- ings that were responsible for three runs being scored, The Falcons were leading 1-0 at the time as a result of Buck Whitlock's single to left field in the third that brought home Irving Ma.cKinnon who got on with a double down the third baseline. 0 O O The big bust-up came in the top half of the fourth. Big Don Carson got on with a single to left field and moved to second when Frank St. John made first on !ViacKiii- ricn's error at first and Elmcr Lar- ter loaded the bases by walking Gunner Cox. Rickey Richard bunt- ed to third base to score Carson. and St. John and Cox came home when Kenny Macxenzie overthrew first on Mcculloughis grounder to second. It was the deciding feat- ure of the game although the R.- C.A.F. boys scored again in the fifth when Chuck I-lulme doubled to left field and was brought home by Carson's two-base hit to right field. I O O . Jack Murphy went the full seven innings to come up with some nice hurling for the R.C.A.F. He allowed five hits. struck out eight and walked one but chalked up one error with an overthrow at first. Husky Elmer Larter was the losing pitcher but turned in an impressive performance during his four and two-third innings on the mound before being relieved by "Lefty" MacAleer in the fifth. Larter fanned five, walked two and allowed five hits. MacAleer gave up two hits in his one and a third innings on the mound. striking out two and allowing no walks before being replaced by Merle ”Rcd" MacKenzie in the seventh after Maurice Williams batted for him in the last half of the sixth. Mac- Kenzie gave up no hits but walk- ed three and fanned one in his single innings of hurling. 0 0 0 All four teams in the league will see action again next Wednesday when the Falcons will be at home to the Abbies in an all City con- test and the Curran and Briggs and R.C.A.F. Royals will duplicate the procedure at the Western Cap- ital. The Summerside tilt will be C. and B.'s home game. 0 O The Provincial Rifle Association hed another successful qualifying shoot at the Squaw Point Range yesterday afternoon when between thirty-five and forty members turned out to take part in quest of positions on the Provincial team that will defend its inter- Maritima championship at Debert.
