Sports Writers Divided 0n Louis’ Bhanccs

NEW YORK. my 20 - (AP)- Sports writers who saw the first Joe Louis-Jersey Joe wialcott fight believe the Jersey veteran has s better chance to reverse the ver- dict than their brethren who weren't present.

In both cases Louis is favored to retain his title when the two Negro battlers meet again at Yankee Stadium, June, 23. But close to onto-third of the writers- ll of 34-who saw the first bout and who participated in s. coun- try-wide Associated Press poll fig- ure Jersey Joe will lift the crown.

The overall voting showed 230 writers lining up behind the champion with. only 52 stringing along with Waloott.

The ' 23 first bout observers picking Iouisall predict the cham- pion wili win by a. knockout. The Brown Bomber won a much dis- puted 15-round decision last Dec. 5 in Madison Square Garden. Seven of them like the fifth round as the finisher. five favor the third and four the seventh. None expect it to go beyond the ninth. I Most oi’ Walcott's supporters. on the other hand. figure the Camden. N.J.. campaigner will outpoint Louis over the iii-round route. Eight of the ll see s. firi- ish fight.

Of the 2B2 writers who made a choice-including those who did and did not witness the Dec. 5 scrap-a total oi’ 228 predict the champion will store Walcott away somewhere along the route.

THE GUARDIAN. ‘CHARLOTTETOWN

Tennis enthusiasts are’ still marking time awaiting their chance to get on the courts cf the Char-

lottetown Tennis Club for prac- tice games in preparation for the toumaments that are to be staged during the season. It now ap- pears likely that Courts 1, 2 and 3 will be ready for June 1st, with the other three playing surfaces, that are being gone over thor- oughly again, taking probably a week or ten. days. longer. O O

Yesterday workmen were busily ensued rolling the first three mentioned courts and when the finishing touches are applied ton- nis players will have three billiard- like surfaces to perform on, so thorough has the work been per- formed. Tl-ie remaining three al- ready harrowed will have to be rolled and then a layer of "top soil added before they are ready, but when finished the entire setup will have regained the condition it was in preyious to the war years.

o

Interest is at a very high pitch among a great number and it seems likely that an increase in membership will be noted before 101m. A goodly number of jun- iors are thinking seriously of tak- ing up the game while much older fans are also expected to Join the ranks of the racquet wlelders. And an important move is now under- way that will help to a great ex- tent in the new members retain- ing interest ‘in the game.

O O O

Veteran players of the Club, both male and female. have signi- fied their willingness of devot- ing time to teachiiTg the newcom- ers. both junior and senior. the rudiments of the game. In the afternoons. after school hours. club members will be on hand to give instruction to any wishing to avail themselves of the chance. At present. arrangements have been made for the month of July only. but once this important part of the program gets in full swing more complete arrangements will bo' made to have the instruction carried on all during the season.

O O O O

Time after time it has been proven that where younger players are not taken along to fill the vac- ancies caused when veterans get beyond their prime the game in question dies quickly. If interest is not shown in how the juniors are getting along the newcomers lose interest rapidly and this is where the move by the Charlotte- town Club is almost sure io pay dividends.

i‘. O O

The newcomers in question. once they see the older players willing to lend a helping hand will attain added interest and with their own willingness will in the ‘matter of several years be able to take the place of retiring players. By so doing club membership is kept at a high level. and a good membership roll is parsnnount-to the success of any organization.

LONDON. May 20 - (OP) - Thirty-six colts. the cream of the English and French three-year- old crop. today made their flnsl acceptances to run ih the Derby. Britain's reatest classic racl. 10 days hence. But to date bettll still haven't a clue as to the like- ly outcome of the race.

Although it is unlikely that all 36 will be at the post when the tapes go up at 3 pm. 8ST (11 a.m. ADT) June 5, there is every indi- cation that the field will be larger than average and almost certainly will exceed last year's 15. Who will be on top when "N? complete the 1 I-Z-mile run over the tortuous Epsom course is a huge question’ mark to the pro- fessional backers arid to thousands of little punters who always have a shilling or two riding on the Derby.

Golf Club will get in. their open- ing swings of the season this after- noon when the President vs. Vice- President's match in A and B div- islon will be played. Although not receiving the same publicity as accorded the men's division the Ladies‘ branch of the -Clu_h have year after year enjoyed as equ- ally successful seasons as the men's divisions. This year should prove no exception and the "fe- male links artists are looking for- ward to the best season's play in years.

O O

Like the other branches of sports golf which got underway on the 24th with the nesident vs. Vice-President's match in the men's division being played and although the weather-there goes that word again-wasn't of the best. some keen competition was experienced. Later in the season when the long list of scheduled tournament play begins and the players are at top form great exhibitions of golfing prowess should bewitnessed with the» ambitious program fully ex- pected to put the game at s new high.‘ r

Is Boss Branch Rickey of the Brooklyn Dodgers trying to nail his "had-boy" manager, Leo Durocher, to the mast?

- e

Surely as smart s. baseball man as Rickey, considered by many to be the shrewdest mind in the busi- ness, realizes that no major league team can operate, even for a short while, with only six able-bodied‘ starflng pitchers.

O O

O ‘ O And for a. manager like Duro- cher who frequently uses that many in one bail game. it is an impossible situation. I O O

Along Fiatbush avenue and in the environs close to Ebbets Field. folks are betting that Durocher will not finish the season as man- ager a-nd in many quarters the chant is being raised that "Burt Shotton ain't forgotten."

O O O

Rickey, never personally compat- ible with his gay-blade pilot whom he inherited from Brooklyn's Larry MacPhail regime, reluctantly so- cepted Durocher as a smart base- ball man, one who stood high in the hearts of Dodger fandom for

104i. But now there is s. question

as to whether the Dodger fsnr

want Lippy Leo any more. O O O

In the opening game of the Summer “ Town League the re- juvenated B. C. A. 1". nine defeat- ed thc Rod Sox last night at the I-Ilgh School diamond by the score of 7 to b. It was a nip-and-tuck struggle all the way, the Sox throwing sway glorious chances in the third and fourth innings by some slap-happy base running. Phsncuf stealing second with the bases full in the third, and Gaudet falling victim in the fourth when he attempted to stretch a well hit double into a three bagger. Lam- bert, Air Force right fielder. was the big gun in the Myers attack, hitting three for four. and driving three R. C. A. F. runs across the plate. Foy also starred at bat and afield. and Carson. last year's win- ner of the Grant nanny 10!‘ b81- ting leadership, got off on the right foot in this season's race, hitting two for three.

Ross pitched well for the airmen for five innings but ‘weakened m the slith. and Mlckus relieved hlni in the final frame to get credit for the win. Les Gaudet. in his pitching assignment in this league showed promise, but his outfleiders let him down on two easy catches. one in the fifth inning and one in the seventh.
