THE OSHANGSD TY TIMES, TUESDAY; APRIL 28, 1931 TED WRESTLERS APPEAR AT OSHAWA ARENA FRIDAY NIGHT anadian Champion Faces "Tough Opponent In Chief 'Match of Splendid Program 'Heavyweight Champion, Meets Alec Koski in Fea- 'High Class Matches on the Program ; A typical, modern-day wrestler is Kogut, Canadian light heavy- champion, who wrestles the gh and rough Alec. Koski at the hawa arcna Friday night. Although twenty-seven years old, the Tor- to grappler is a real veteran of the t, having been wrestling some ten s. And in that time Kogut fig- he has had at least seven hun- matches, Aad it is no wonder, ng that of late he has wrestled as 1 as five and six nights a week. ly recently, while wrestling Joe Banaski, world's light heavy-weight champion, at Syracuse, Kogut was called out of the ring during the in- ermission between falls to talk to oronto, by telephone, long distance. was to appear at the Queen City following night in a wrestling ch. ¢ Kogut accepted the offer with alac- fity, rushed through his match, hoped the "chu chu" and was back in Tor- onto the next day in good time to go + and do himself jus- se of the frequency of his activities; Kogut always carries a superfluous amount of flesh, as he ex- plains that he often loses from ten . to a dozen pounds in a match. Wrest- ling every other night or so it can be realized that if he was down too E fine he would not last long. * ¥ And the reason for Kogut wrest- ling so often is that he is always in . nd. because he never fails to "please. And he is ready to meet any- y Bicas: big or small,*fat or tall, white, "yellow or any other color, with no creed barred. © Just as cvery other wrestler has pr specialty, so has Kogut. His is at is known as the aeroplane whirl, _ which consists of picking an oppon- ent up bodily, whirling him around in the air and then crashing him--none too gently--to the boards, a most ef- fective if dangerous method of dis. posing of an opponent. : In Koski, Jack will be meeting a Fr oeeo 57954) SAM ROTISH, Manager 11 Simcoe Street South Make Your Home Hore, WaverLey SPADINA AVE. and COLLEGE ST, : © BR.

YANKEES LOSE IN 12TH Washington, April 28. -- The Washington Senators made it two straight over the New York Yanks yesterday, winning 9 to 8, in the 12th inning. Weinert, rookie pit- cher, hit a batter with the bases full and two cut to put across the winning run for the Nats. affair, the Senators collecting 20 safeties while the Yanks garnered HITS THREE HOMERS Jersey City, April 28.--Spectac- ular batting of Ralph Shinners, who smashed three home runs and a double in five official trips to the plate, was enough to put the Buffalo Bisons on the right side of the ledger in the third game of their series with the Jersey City Skeeters here yesterday by a score of 7 to 5. Both starting pitchers, Perkins for the Skeeters, and Fus- sell, for the Bisons, out of the box. SCHOLARSHIPS FOR YOUNG RHODESIANS Railway Company Makes Possible Post Graduate Courses for Students Cape Town, South Africa, April 28.--The Beit Railway Trust has completed its new scheme of Fel- lowships for the two Rhodesias. In order to provide oportunities for young men in Rhodesia to under- take post-graduate studies, the trustees offer three post-graduate fellowships annually tenable for two years at universities. or for special studies at institutions ap- proved by the trustees in South Africa, Great Britain, the overseas Dominions, the Continent of Eu- rope, or the United States. The value of a fellowship is $1,250 per annum if held in South Africa, and $1,875 per annum if held overseas. If the course de- scribed by a candidate at an ap- proved institution is obtainable in South Africa preferemce will be given to that country. Candidates must hold a recognized university degree, be unmarried and be of European descent through both parents. They must not have passed their 26th birthday on the date of application and must have resided in Northern or Southern Khodesia for three full years before the date of application, save that, where a can- didate has spent all or part of that period outside Rhodesia at a uni- versity or university college, his parents must have resided in Rho- desia for at least five years before the date of application. The administration of the fel- lowships will be in the hands of an advisory board, of which the ehair- man will be the Governor of South. ern Rhodesia. It is pointed out that out of the funds provided by the will of the late Alfred Beit it wil now be pos- sible for a boy who begins his edu- cation in a Rhodesian primary §chool to obtain assistance through the secondary school to a South African university, and thence to a university or technical institution in Great Britain, the oversea Domin- ions, the Continent of Europe, or the United States. Alfred Beit (1853-1906), British South African financier, was a na- tive of Hamburg, Germany. After a commercial education at home he was sent out to Kimberley, South Africa, to investigate the diamond prospects. He rapidly acquired 'a leading position on the diamond fields, and became closely allied with the ideals of Cecil Rhodes, with whom he joined forces and be- came very rich. He gave $500.000 to establish a university in his na- tive city of Hamburg, and $1,000, 000 for a university in Johannes- burg, South Africa. It was a crowded meeting, The political candidate was doing his best to hold a rather restive audi- ence. Some of his remarks, however, were greeted with fierce storms of disapproval. Suddenly on of the hecklers in the back of the hall shouted: "Experience teaches fools!" The candidate was equal to the occasion. "That," he returned, "is why I ask you to profit by my experi- ence."

ENGLISH CRICKET OFFICIAL OPFING 15 SET FOR MAY 2 London, England, April 28--The English cricket season officially opens on May 2 and promises to be quieter than it has been for some years, While a New Zealand team will tour the country they will play only one test match. England has been deluged with test matches in re- cent, years owing to visits by teams from the West Indies, South Africa and Australia. New Zealand will play England at Lords beginning June 27. Lancashire will defend their title as champion county. The larger wicket, seven minute in- stead of ten minute rolling, and the leg-before-wicket rule regarding "the snick" as in use last summer will be continued in county cricket. A new system of scoring for the county championship will be introduced in an effort to induce batsmen to make runs against the clock and thus brighten up the game. The games for the opening date are: 2 Lord's.--M.C.C. versus Yorkshire. Oval.--Surrey versus Gloucester- shire. Gravesend.--Kent versus Essex. Nottingham.--Nottinghamshire ver- sus Sussex. Derby.--Derbyshire versus Leices- tershire. Birmingham.--Warwickshire versus Glamorganshire, The following list shows which counties do not meet in the county championship next season: Lancashire do not meet Leicester- shire and Northamptonshire. Gloucestershire do not meet Kent and Essex. Yorkshire do not meet Worcester- shire and Derbyshire. Nottinghamshire do not meet Gla- morgan and Sussex. Kent do not meet Gloucestershire and Glamorgan, Essex do not meet and Gloucestershire. . Sussex do not meet Nottingham- shire and Warwickshire. Surrey do not meet Middlesex and Northamptonshire. Derbyshire do not meet Yorkshire and Somerset. Worcestershire do not meet Hamp- shire and Yorkshire. Glamorgan do not meet hamshire and Kent. Leicestershire do not meet Lanca- shire and Somerset. Hampshire do not meet Middlesex and Worcestershire. Somerset do not meet and Leicestershire. Warwickshire do not meet Sussex and Essex. Middlesex do not meet Surrey and Hampshire. Northamptonshire do Lancashire and Surrey.

The newly formed club has some interesting ideas to work out, and every encouragement will be given to local boys to get into this branch cf sports, The cider track at the fair grounds will be given a thorough inspection at an early date, and an effort made to have it put in first-class shape for the scason. It is possible that there will be weekly twilight meetings, with a few varied events on the program, and it is certain that at least one open meeting will be arranged during the season. plenty of good young athletes, and every effort will be mad: them along sound lines. * * Oshawa has to develop * »* In Pro.

It was pointed out that unlike other sports in the Dom- .inion, such as hockey, lawn bowling, rughy, lacrosse, tennis, ctc., there was no Canadian body governing curling. True, many of the provin- cial associations are affiliated with the Royal Caledonia Club of Scotland, which to them is considered the parent body.

Discusisons te a Canadian body took place some years ago when it was planned to-have uniform rules, etc, but the project fell through. One of the rcasons Mor some not showing much' interest in the proposal was that their rules alowed them to use 50-pound rocks, while other ass were only allowed 45-pound stones.' ® » Jciations * * Collegiate Athletes Note Collegiate athletes who are contemplating entering in the district secondary schools athletic meeting on May 25 are to be given an op- portunity to do some intensive training.

Orioles Stage Batting Bee And Defeat Leafs, 11 to 6 Baltimore, April 28. -- The Or- ioles made it two out of three from the Leafs by taking yester- day's frigid battle, 11-6, The locals pounced on the pitch- Bob Shanklin for 14 hits, nicked Lou and Curley Ogden while the visitors Koupal for 13 blows. The Birds got off on top with. a four-run push in the opening in- ning on five hits and one walk And they stayed in front thercaf- ter. Ken Strong gave the Leafs a start in the second frame when he pushed the ball out of the park, but although hits came fre- quently for the O'Neillmen, they were unable to bunch them suf- ficiently, They did bob up three runs in the sixth and it appeared for a while as if they might cause trouble before the side was re- tired. A good play by Heffner here, when he dived out and grabbed Shiver's long drive, prevented a bigger inning. Billy Rogell evened it with a triple and Strong walked and stole second Art McHenry and Tom Daly singled, and Art Ruble, pinch-hitting for Shanklin, came through with a single, too, and three runs were in, It was the big threat for the Leafs, but they were unable to duplicate it again, for Koupal had enough stuff to clamp on the brakes when necessary.
