A1 McLean to meet 147 lb. Wal- ter “Peanu-ts” Arsenault in a six- round semi-final.

Comeback bound after losing some of his magnetic drawing power as a result of a decision defeat at the hands of un-crown- ed New England welterweight champion Tony Veronis last Oct- ober at Boston, Steele is deadly serious about his attempt to pick up some big money. He’s taking his training chores more serious- ly than he has in a long time. He’s doing most of his training for the fight with Maritime light- weight ruler Jackie Hayden in New Glasgow and has cut his weight down to near the 147 lb. which he will weigh May 9th. , Ramsay is expected to tip the scales at close to 145. Steele is eying a bout with Norm Gau- treau early in the.summer. The fight hasn’t been signed as yet, but negotiations have been un- derway for some time. Thus Steele wants his first appearance in an Island ring since he battled to a draw with Tony‘Veron~is at the ‘Sports Arena last August to be an impressive one.

The fight between Arsenault and McLean could be the hit of the show. Arsenault ﬂattened Leo Steele in two rounds at the Stadium last summer and look- ed very impressive in doing it. On the ‘same night that Arsen- ault knocked out Steele, down in New Glasgow McLean was pun- ching out a unanimous decision over Jimmy Desmond. _ Two four roundens will com- plete the card.

SPORT ECHOES

BY NORMAN MACDONALD

The hockey season is over, and ; least because our senior hockey

post-mortems are the order of the day. There seems to be some- thing very wrong with our Mari- time set-up when such a powerful team as the Bathurst Papermak- ers did not represent us in the A1- lan Cup playdowns. Of course, it was their own choice, as they preferred to finish their league to breakingi-t off in mid-season and entering the Allan Cup sweepstakes. Since these Allan Cup games must be played so early in February, it’s a pity some arrangement could not be made to suspend the several lea-

gues for about two weeks or so,

have sudden death elimination

leagues resume operations. This

. is just a thought, given without

too much thought behind it, and might be impractical, but it would be fine if something could be done to put our best foot for-

‘ ward in the Allan Cup struggle.

All sports writers seem to agree that our hockey story on the Is- land last winter could not be classed as a best-seller. Our ﬂing at mainl-and competition was not a happy one, partly at

schedule was broken up without ceremony or warning in mid- season. There are bound to be certain risks in the promotion of hockey, but, at least. its promot- ers should have an idea what to expect in the way of procedure by each of the participating clubs and the governingbodies. If Am- herst’s sudden breaking away from our league was strictly regular and above the table, then why were not all clubs aware of this possibility when the league was organized in November? Had they known, it is doubtful it the league would have been formed at all. It would seem that among sports governing bodies there is a great deal of irresponsibility and lack of planning that would not be tolerated in business or political set-ups. ' What about next year? Sugges- tion are being offered so here we come with our two cents worth. Three teams from Charlottetown and one from Surnmerside seems to be the correct proportion with a possible provision that Sum- merside do without Charlottetown imports and rely on Prince County.

No Danger OI’ Ruth's Record Being Broken

NEW YORK (AlP)—Therc’s no need to get paniclry over the Los Angeles Coliseum’s 20 - foot left- field fence, balselball commis-

key have it stipulated that each team must have at least three junior forwards and one junior defenceman on its roster. Then these sixteen after a full season of competitive play could form a team to enter the maritime play downs.

We don't expect the hockey powers-that-be to explain, “why didn't we think of that?” and pro- ceed to follow the above plan as if it were a law like that of the Medes and Persians. but is sports writers and fans alike would offer suggestions for next year's hockey, some of the best of them might be followed by the boys who will be in charge of promoting Island Senior Hockey next fall.

sionerrord Trick said Wednes- day.

“I don't think Babe R-uth’s home run record (60) is in any immediate danger — not on ac- count of the fence, anyhow,” he said.

Frick attended opening games at San Francisco and Los Ange- les and was one of the few who refused to be alarmed by the shoot foul line in the Dodgers Coliseum where 14 h.-ome runs have been hit in four games.

“I feel this situation has been over exaggerated. It is not an ideal condition, that’s true, but this is not a permanent park.

“If it were permanent there would be reason for some con- cern. Brut Dos Amgeles plans to lbuizld another park. I see no rea- son to get hyistenlcval about the situation at this time."

EASY HOMERS '

The commissioner did not try to deny the soft aspects of the fence with its 42-foot screen.

“There will be easy home runs tJl1seresure—-inﬂachlsawa couple," Frlck said. "But a lot of the home runs will be legiti- mate — balls which would be homers in almost any park‘. And also hits which might go for home runs in other parks may be just singles at the Coliseum. . . .
