PAGE FOURTEEN FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1948 PORT NAPSHOTS ' The "Sport Snapshots $5.00 Club" enlisted three more members yesterday s0 i | got over that blank-day lapse of Wednesday, and we hope there are not many more of them. Clarence Foster, a local contracting carpenter, who has always been a keen hockey and ball fan and a stout booster of the Shamrock A.C. in this city, as well as inter- ested in most sport atcivities, joined our club yesterday morning and later in the day, two brothers filed their applications for membership, Boris and Shora Shelenkoff. The Shelenkoff brothers are well and favor- ably known in local sport circles over recent years. Boris (they were both nick-named "Shelly") was an outstanding softball and baseball player while Shora was a left-winger on Joe Graboski's line when the "Blue Imps" were hitting hockey headlines around these parts. In addition, he was a member of the Blue Devils, after coming out of OCVI with a reputation as a canny football quarterback. These three members are welcome and there must be more around--let's here from you, boys! BY Geo. H. Campbell * "* 2 Tuesday night will be lacrosse night in Oshawa, at the Arena and the Senior "B" schedule for the OALA five-team group seeking the 1948 championship, will open at the Oshawa Arena on Tuesday night of next week when Scarboro visits Oshawa. The five clubs, Huntsville, Orillia, Peterboro, Scarboro and Oshawa, held their schedule meeting last night at the Hotel Genosha and lined up their games for the summer. It looks like an interesting season and Coach Kelly DeGray, who has been working out his boys for a month now, will have his team ready for Tuesday night's opening game here. The locals, bolstered by a few imports, are expected to be much. stronger than last year and warning goes out to the Liftlock City 'boys that they had better watch out for their cham- pionship crown--the Oshawa boys are after it. * + * Brooklin's junior team lost a game a Radio Park last night, bowing to Stoneys and it looks as if, similar to last year, that the Brooklin Dodgers are mighty tough to beat on their home diamond but are just another good team, when playing away from home. In the other junior softball tilt last night, Sharpe Motors won a 13-10 victory over Fittings, ~ in a thriller-diller that went 12 innings before it was settled. A home- =~ run in the last of the 12th, broke up a 10-10 tie and there were two "men on bases when it came, to make it a three-run margin. These two strong teams were 7-7 at the nine-inning mark, each scored a couple in the tenth and each scored one run in the 11th inning. Then came the 12th, with Fittings held off and Sharpe's came through with their story- book finish. * * * The Oshawa Merchants had a meeting last night and the boys "let their hair down." A few differences that have crept in during the past two weeks, to create a threat to the team's spirit and har- mony, were ironed out and the air cleared. Now they're ready to go ahead and they'll be making an all-out bid to defeat Batawa Shoemen, when _ that club visits Oshawa tomorrow. Don't know who the board of strategy will select for pitching duty for tomorrow's game but it might prove to be Tony Romaniski or Paul Michael. We think the Oshawa fans will like this Batawa team, they move around in a snappy fashion, and the game tonforrow afternoon should be the best yet.

Press Staff Writer Epsom Downs, Surrey, England, June 4--(CP)--The shadow of two Indian Princes, who make horse racing a million-dollar pastime, cast gloom over English turf prospects today, on the eve of the 169th run- ning of the Epsom Derby. As capricious weather alternative- ly bathed the rolling Surrey Downs in brilliant sunshine and driving rain Thursday, Aga Khans "Maska" finished "streets ahead" in the £10,000 ($40,000) Oaks Stakes. Six lengths behind, in the field of 25 contesting the classic race for three- year-old fillies, came the King's '"Angelola." .

Aga Khan won the next race with the filly Hounyra, a 10-1 shot and |lengers, William Woodward, the Maharajah\Gaekwar of Baroda, picked up blue 'chips with his only starters--Darbari Bal E L'Air and Diesel. It might be the year of the "My My!" derby. The Maharajah owns My Babu, lightly-framed colt bred in the Calvados Country of France. Aga Khan has a half-interest in My Love, which he purchased from the Parisian showman Leon Vol- terra for a reported £12,000. My Babu purchased in Norman- dy as a yearling, is a 4-1 favorite for tomorrew's big race. My Love is a third choice at 10-1 odds.

Stories Recalled Another Derby Day dawns Sat- urday at Epsom Downs, setting imaginations alight and crowding the mind with memories. As 33 thoroughbreds headed by My Babu and the Cobbler wait restively for the 169th renewal of England's greatest classic race, old- timers spin tales of epic duels of the past, turf romances with a Damon Runyon twist. They tell of a romantic Italian trainer who belieyed in love match- es for horses as well as humans, of the 1867 Derby and "Chaplin's Revenge." The Hermit Dood It Henry Chaplin was engaged to Lady Florence Paget, the toast of Mayfair and known as "The Pocket Venus." She deserted Chaplin, practically at the altar, for a dash- ing young blade named Lord Hast- ings. Chaplin, vowing vengeance, bought a colt named Hermit and 169th RUNNING OF EPSOM DERBY TOMORROW AT HISTORIC SURREY DOWNS persuaded Hastings to lay odds against him winning the Derby.

" Ran Smoothly Too The Italian with unorthodox ideas on breeding was Chevalier Ginistrelli. - He owned a mare named Signorina which spurned all stallions--except a cheap plater named Chaleureux.

Rexall's, on the strength of this pitching, were able to claim a 5-0 win over the McCallum Legion club, the only new entry in the loop this year. | Day, who by the way, is suffer- ing from a painful charley-horse and had to have a pinch-runner every time he came to bat, not only served up a two-hitter, but his fastball had the opposition guessing to such an extent that he was able to rack up 12 strike- outs. Relief Hurler Gil. Depratto started on the big hill for the Legion club, but he had to be relieved in the seventh by Ron McGillis who finished the game. Depratto allowed seven hits, and four of the five runs to cross the plate. He was not backed up by his team in the way that he should iave been, and this was the main cause of the few hits he allowgd, going for so many runs. Rexalls struck twice in the top of the third and took the lead in the ball game. Coggins' line-drive blast through short that went for a home run, with a man on, was the spark of hte splurge. Legion made no answer to Rex- alls in the last of the third, and Day was still pitching no-hit ball when the last of the fourth rolled around. That was when Day's op- posing pitcher collected the first hit of the game, beating out an infield roller. Depratto really broke Day's heart with that bit of work. Two More Tallies However, Rexalls didn't seem to mind the loss of the no-hit effort, for they beat in two more runs in the top of the sixth, when Shields and Dennis came home on a weird infield play. Both men were on 'base, when Cooper flied out to center. In mak- ing the catch he fell to the ground so that it looked as if he dropped the ball, and so both runners fail- ed to go back to their bases. Then came the base-running that really was something to see. Dennis got back to his base (third), and started for home when he saw Shields was being trapped off second. His move toward the plate diverted attention long enough for Shields to get half way to third. Dennis scored, and on a wild throw by the second baseman to third to tag Shields, he continu- ed home with the second run. Howie's Triple The last of the sixth saw Bill Howie clout a triple deep into right field; however, he was not able to get home, when the rest of his team failed t ohit. Rexalls got another run in the top of the seventh, making it 5-0. Grant Hoy got to first on an error, stole second, and in an attempt to steal third, the catcher's throw was wild, and Hoy waltzed home with the fifth tally.. Legion were really silenced in the last of the seventh by Day's great mound performance, and the game ended 5-0. R. H. E, REXALLS 0020021- 5 7 1 LEGION 000 0000- 0 2 5 REXALLS--D.

Veteran's Taxi took their second straight win last night, when they defeated Storie Park Juveniles 'at Alexandra Park by the terrific score of 20-0. Joe Tamblyn did the pitching for the Cab team, and pitched a seven- hit game to the bewildered and bedazzled Storie Park squad, who could hit well enough, but couldn't keep pace with the slam-bang clouts of the Veteran's Taxi squad.
