McLain Leads Tigers, Phillies Nip Pirates By RON RAPOPORT Associated Press Sports Writer The next 'time former Indian enh. jects son-ain-iaw Denny McLain to films of the 1948 playoff game for the pennani between Cleveland and Boston Red Sox, the young Detroit Tigers hurler can produce a. few reels of his own and demand equal time. There are a couple of one- hitters McLain pitched in May and a pair of two-hitters, also from earlier in the season. But the Academy Award winner is Wednesdays two-hit, 8-0 Tiger victory over Chicago White Sox. At the All-Star break McLain was 13-4, tops in the American League. But it took Denny five tries to win his 14th and five more, before he got number 15 Wednesday. The fact that it came on such a sharp perform- ance has to give the Tigers hope that McLain is ready to resume & his leading-man role. - Only Ken Berry, with a dou- ble in the fourth, and Jerry Adair, who beat out a single in the eighth, managed hits for Chicago. The Tigers got three runs in the first inning, two in the second and three on a Dick McAuliffe homer in the fifth. McLain, now 15-11, 'walked just two batters and pitched his 10th complete game. In other American League games, California Angels beat New York Yankees 5-1, Balti- dians 4-3 in 11 inningg and Bos- ton Red Sox won a double- header from Kansas City Ath- letics, 8-6 and 4-1. PHILLIES BEAT PIRATES In a brief National League schedule, Chicago Cubs beat New York Mets 3-2 and Phila- delphia Phillies beat Pittsburgh Pirates 4-1, Jim Fregosi and Jay Jobn- stone knocked in a pair of runs behind George Brunet's six-hit- ter for the Angelsm It was Bru- net's 12th triumph. Paul Blair's single in the 11th drove in the winning Baltimore run after a throwing error by Cleveland reliever Luis Tiant had allowed runners to second and third.

Using his left hook, the sharp Mexican battler floored Burke for an eight count, followed up with a short left to the jaw for another eight - count knock- down, then fired a crisp right to the jaw for the knockout. For Pimentel it was the 50th knockout in 57 professional fights. He has lost two deci-} sions. A 3-1 favorite, Pimentel left no doubt in the first three rounds about who was in com- mand.

(CP Wirephoto) field coaches' clinic ended here, Dyson said in an interview Ca- nadian javelin thrower Zenon Andrusyshyn will soon reach 280 feet, a mark that would put him among the world's top half dozen throwers. The 19 - year - old Oakville Track Club athlete, among the clinic's final-day demonstrators,| recorded a toss of 250 feet. It) unofficially broke the Canadian javelin record of 236 feet. Oakville coach Willie McKay leredited the Legion training \clinic for his athlete's progress. | "It wasn't until I came here three years ago that I became jinterested: in the javelin myself and then I started working on Zenon. He threw 174 feet his first year, 207 his second and his best competitive mark is Dyson, returning to England) in 1968 after completing a five- year contract as sports director for the Legion, said this year's clinic was the best of five. | 'The effects of the clinic are} just now being felt, but it will be another five years before the full impact is reached." Dyson said he expects to re- turn to Canada annually to di- rect the coaches' clinic. Rain Postpones By BEN WARD OTTAWA (CP)--More peo- ming in Canada last year. The toll exceeded 300. This year it could reach 400. Many are concerned about the situation but one of the few doing something about it department.

What he is doing is prepar- ing some radical proposals for a federal - provincial confer- ence here in October on im- proged regulations for small- boat operation.

JOHNSON, 0.D. 723-2721 NAVY PALM BREEZE _ ery Light (Dark) RUM WHITE CAP (White) branch less than a year ago, says the steady rise in' boat- ing fatalities is causing great concern among provincial transport, tourist and recrea- tion agencies as well as in | federal circles. "Let's face it, we've got probably 500,000 small boats on our 'waters now and we're adding about 50,000 a year," | "This | he told a reporter. problem can get a lot worse if we don't act soon." WANTS STIFFER LAWS He believes that the laws governing small-boat penalize overloading and over- powering, two of the major causes of accidents. Most new craft now bear small plates listing the suggested maxi- ple drowned in pleasure-boat- | ing accidents than in swim- | is Ronald R, Macgillivray, di- | rector of marine regulations | in the federal transport de- | ; mum load and motor size. ; But there is nothing to pre- vent operators from exceed- ing these specifications, Licensing of boat operators also is under study, although Mr. Macgillivray frankly ad- mits that it | awesome problems in admin- istration for the department. "The provinces are in the best position to handle a li- censing program and I think they may be interested. There could be a fee to cover costs and we'd at least be assured that persons running boats know the basic rules of the water and safety standards." The program would start with a written exam and per- haps expand eventually to a driving test, although "that's probabiy a long way off." A federal law introduced in 1951 requircs all boats using motors of 10 horsepower or more to bear a licence num- ber. The licences are : sued free at™customs offices but there is a maximum $100 fine for operating without one. WOULD LOWER LIMIT opera- | | tion should be broadened to Mr. Macgillivray believes | the time has come to lower | the 10-horsepower limit and require licences on all but the smallest motorboats. The main purpose is identification | in case of accidents. More statistics on boat ac- | cidents are also needed and | his branch is working on a regulation that would require detailed reports on all acci- dents involving fatalities, se- rious injury or damage above $100. " Macgillivray doesn't share the popular idea that young people are a major cause of accidents. A survey by the U.S. Coast Guard last would present | Stiffer Laws Sought For Pleasure- Boaters year reported that in 2,619 boating accidents attributed to careless operators only 399 drivers were under the age of 18 and only 22 of these were under 12. "That's amazing when you | consider young tion."' That leads to the question of whether there should be a minimum age for boat oper- the percentage of people in the popula- ators' licences. "It would be | 'hard to justify one on the available information."'* Mr. Macgillivray, 50, grad- uated from the University of Saskatchewan law school in 1940 and went immediately into the army, serving in Italy and Northwest Europe . with the Sastatcon Lisht lnfantiy. He wound up as a captain. After the war he was a law- yer in. Saskatoon for two years before joining the fed- eral service in 1947 with the veterans affairs department office there. He came to Ot- tawa in 1950 as assistant counsel in the tranSport de- partment law branch and han- died transport matters in the justice department from 1959 until his present appointment. Now he administers a staff of 500 involved in everything from ship inspections and | pilotage to mariners' certifi- eates and of wrecks. Although he has owned a boat himself, Mr. Macgillivray does have a touch of salt air in his back- ground. His parents were born in Nova Scotia and as a youth he spent many of his summers on the shores around Antigonish where two of his three children now attend university. the disposal never jswim meet. 1 Young By DON MacLACHLAN VANCOUVER (CP) -- A 13 year-old South African girl was oh get umbia centennial the British Karen Muir of Kimberley, South Africa, holder of the world 110 - yard and 200 - metre backstroke marks, added the 200-yard backstroke title with a time of #:28.2 in a final event.
