Canadian fight fans are taking new le to cheer about but it's just possible In a sequence of events is understandably anxious to stage a Having seen Arthur King on many: occasions, we would say that his American experience has only improved his ability to win bouts. It has_done nothing to increase his prestige as a crowd pleaser. An accomplished boxer, King looks and acts like a high- explosive without a detonator. Boxing, generally, is considered to be at an all-time low level and we're inclined to blame its management. The promoters and managers have gained too much power whilg the spectators (who pay the shot) are forced to sit and suffer as the fighters protect their so-called repu- tations in the safest manner possible. Win or lose, they're sure of the pay- off at the end of an evening's fun. Perhaps the Romans were right. Sitting in the tiered seats of the Coliseum the spectators decided if a fighter should live or die. crowd was given the deciding vote as to whether a gladiator was paid in gold or thrown to the lions.

Whatever the resent abilities of jv Arthur King as a fighter, however, the fact remains that if he manages to meet Jimmy Carter (here or else- where) Canada may 8 again boast a boxing. champion. Eligible for the American draft as a resident alien, King may Yet do his fighting in a uniform but it's to be hoped that he gets a chance at the lightweight crown. Perhaps, as champion, he will turn on the earnest ferocity we feel is naturally his. As lightweight champion of the world, Arthur King may bring us another glimpsa of the glamourous days of Jimmy McLarnin. Oieefes BREWING COMPANY LIMITED == NORMAN GROVES WINS JITNEY TOURNEY EVENT. MRS. MATHEWS TOP LADY A mixed jitney tournament on the local bowling green brought out a large number of contestants Tuesday, evening last week. First honors for men were captured by Norman Groves, with Jim McArthur in second place. Mrs. Ray Mathews was first and Mrs. Ed. Heldman second in the mix- ed rinks tournament at Streets- ville. F. W. Grinham and George Finnegan were first and second in the men's group, Mrs. T. Smith and Mrs. A. Kemp carrying off the ladies' honors. JUST With FRANK R. WALKER Why can't Oakville have a Fish and 'Game Association similar to the Toronto Anglers? There are several close spots which, if properly stocked and Supervised, should produce some nice fishing, and a local association is just the body to organize such plant- ing and supervision. Let's have your thoughts, drop us a line. Reports of the past week show that trout fishing is gradually reaching warm weather levels. In most of the big waters in Northern Ontaria, the larger fish have gone back to deep wat- er. However, there is still some good 'fishing to be had in local streams around Orangeville, Shelburne and Hornings Mills. Several nice catches have come in from Credit Forks. Bddie Maindonald and party caught some lovely speckles up to 43% Ibs. near South River over the holiday but Murray Bowman of Toronto and Ed. Spall of Guelph fished the same spots last week- end and only got a few ten inch- ers for their efforts. For the fisherman wanting a full quota and good fishing, pick- erel are the best bet. At Lake Nipissing, off Callander, every- one is bringing in their limit. See Jack Davis at the boat livery for local info. Try these babies on spinning tackle, using a 2% oz rod and 4 Ib. test nylon filament line. Spinning is the ultimate in fish- ing, no back casts necessary, no back lash and perfect direction- al control can be accomplished with very little practice. Spin- ning also offers a very wide range of lures, ranging from one-eighth oz. to one-quarter oz. each with deadly effects. - RANDOM CASTS Any time now start taking in- ventory of your tackle for bass and muskie opening. Check your plugs for bent and dull hooks. A little bon ami or similar abrasive will restore the shine to spoons, wabblers, ete. Check rod guides as a split agate can ruin a lne. Take your reels . apart, clean them in any good grease solvent, oil and grease thoroughly when re-assembling them. Here is my favorite way of keeping fish fresh in the bush-- Clean each fish carefully and re- move all traces of gills; etc., clean out the blood line down the back- bone. Wash the fish thoroughly of all the protective slimy coat- ing on the outside and then wipe dry. Take one bag of cooking salt and mix with enough water (personally I find hot water better), to make a soluble solu- tion, (the water will absorb no more salt at this point). Place each fish in this solution after it cools, for a few minutes, Your choice of Y color For those boxing fans who can never remember who is who on the fight front, the Wednesday night brawl 'pits Luther Rawlings against Freddie Dawson in a light- weight joust. And just for fun, we'll pick Dawson. Luther may be ready . .. but we doubt if it's for Freddie. of baseball, will con- verge upon Wallace park during the last week of June for a full, four-day diamond session. For on June 25, 26, 27 and 28, the American league Cleveland In- dians will set up shop at the park to hold a full scale baseball school, and any kid who wants to improve his brand of ball play- ing is free to attend. This will be one school that will have a minimum truancy re- cord, too. And the teachers won't have any problem when it comes to holding a full share of student attention. Because the men who will play professorial roles for the occasion are well steeped in diamond lore, picked up during Mark Pollock tossed neat ball for five innings and contributed a home run as the Oaks downed Clarkson 12-1 last Saturday in a contest cut short by rain. Friday night, veteran Al Yarnell came through with another sterling mound chore against the senior West Yorks in an exhibition go, but one bad inning afield by his mates forced him to settle for a 3-3 tie. Rene Bouchard, former New Toronto hurler, and Jack Cabot also served up a choice as- sortment of stuff as the two clubs provided about the best game of the season to date. Rain halted play at Appleby campus Saturday afternoon as Oakville cricketers entertained Galt C.C., with the contest being rescheduled for Galt on July 8. This coming Saturday, Brantford will be the match guests of the local club. Youngsters eager to learn the fundamentals of sailing are re- minded of Larry Cond's Saturday morning classes which will take place throughout the summer.

Kenny Brown and Bob Hooper paced the attack with a double and a triple each, while Bill Vau- ghan, Don Rutledge and Jim Co- wan also got a pair of hits each. Brown has clicked for 7 hits in 17 trips for a .471 average to lead the troops up to, and including this game.

When dry the fish resemble salt cod. To remove all salt just run cold water tap on them for a few min- utes.

Heading the Cleveland coach- ing staff will be Hank Gowdy, one of baseball's all time great First major leaguer to turning to oaching, and is highly regarded s an instructor of young play- ers. Joe Vosmick, a powerhouse hitter with the Indians for sev- eral years, will be Hank's chief assistant, and is expected to take the ambitious outfielders under his wing. And then there will be Laddy Placek, Cleveland's chief scout,.and Clare Hoose, who heads the club's Canadian scout- ing staff. And Hap Watson, one time all round Canadian athlete who also does a spot of scouting for the Indians. "It should be quite an outing, and offers our own town young- sters a wonderful opportunity," declared Don Davis, who recently became a member of Cleveland's "Keep an eye open for a bright prospect" crew. "While any kid from any town is welcome, the fact that the school is being held here is a big break for our youngsters," he continued. "There will be two days. of instruction for lads of all ages, followed by two days of tryouts CLEVELAND INDIANS PLAN PARK BALL LATE JUNE Grand wind-up of the school, he stated, will be an all-star floodlight game the final night, when the cream of the student crop will put on what should be a terrific show. Application forms will be available shortly, Mr. Davis ad- vises, as well as additional in- formation concerning the school. Players will be asked to supply their own equipment and uni- forms, although the Indians will provide all the balls, bats and catching armor that is required. ORGANIZE GUN CLUB An organization meeting to form a local Rod & Gun Club will be held in Victoria hall Tuesday evening, June 19, recreational director Ted Kennedy announces. Movies are being arranged for, and game warden Dudley Hitch- cox will be on hand to answer queries pertaining to woodland and stream.
