Miami Sunday News Photo by Pierce. It-r? "ft "VC51f By MERT WETSTEIN Miami Sunday ws Staff Write Over 100 drivers are readying craft, studying charts and tak-i preliminary qualifying speed runs today for the mammoth South Florida Gold Coast marathon. The 130-mile round-trip journey will get under way next Saturday when the first of the competing craft leaves the Pelican Harbor Yacht Club's dock on the 79th st. causeway. The Pelican Harbor and City of Miami-sponsored classic will send the slowest of the craft on their way up the Inland Waterway starting at one, with staggered starts for the higher horsepower inboards and out-boards.

Also making the dash will be 12 racing craft, running in the scratch division for time record only. A drivers' meeting will be held at the PHYC at noon Sat urday, Marathon Chairman Sam Griffith announced. This richest boating classic of the summer will offer over 000 dollars, merchandise and trophies to the winners. Nearly 70 of the expected 100 drivers are expected to get awards of one kind or another. Charlie Meyer may not start his heavily-favored 225, Mi-T- Me in the scratch division.

He has sent for several new heads for his hot engine, and if they don arrive in time he will be unable to run in the classic. The Coconut Grove sailing Club holds its regular series races this afternoon starting around 1:30 off its Dinner Key quarters.

It is a competition open to all girls 21 or less who are residents of Greater Miami, meaning Miami or Miami Beach; Homestead and all of the tourney area south to Marathon and Key West. All required is for the entrant to send a photograph, preferably an 8x10 glossy print, with a letter noting name, measurements and any other data she might wish to Tournament Manager, P. O.

The Keys competition moves into its second week today boasting a topflight registration of more than 60 entries for trophies citations and special awards.

Maguire To Browns PITTSBURGH, July 7-UP) The Pittsburgh Pirates today released Infielder Jack Maguire to the St. Louis Browns on a waiver claim. NATIONAL TEAM BATTING AB Florida sportsmen and conservationists are clubbing themselves to death and it isn't helping their cause too much when it comes to putting over legislation that will protect their game and fish. For the politician has long learned there aren't as many sportsmen in the state as are represented by the many outdoor and conservation organizations. It would be impossible to count the many outdoor clubs in South Florida on your fingers and toes.

Many of the members of one club belong to one or more other clubs all interested in the same thing. The clubs in Salty Says is heard every weekday morning at 7:35 over VVIOD 10 kc. turn belong to a federation, which only duplicates the number of sportsmen it represents because they are already represented by their local clubs. Now they've started a new organization up at West Palm Beach. It will be known as the Federation of Conservation Councils.

What this club is going to do that isn't already being done by the Florida Wildlife Federation I'd like to know. The officers of this new club are going to try and impress the so-lons with the number of sportsmen and clubs they represent and Florida's hunting and fishing fraternity is going to grow by leaps and bounds. Only, they will not be representing that number if the members are already represented by their local organization. As of this morning at 8 o'clock boys of the Ojus area between the ages of 8 and 15 may parti cipate in a fishing contest sponsored by the Ojus Kiwanis Club. The contest will come to a close at 5 p.m.

Aug. 4 with some of the most attractive prizes given by the merchants of the Dade county community. Boundaries of the contest run from the Uleta river Maule Lakes, including Greynolds Park, to Hallandale, Ojus, North Miami Beach and Uleta. Boys who want to participate must register at Blue Marlin Fishing Camp, at 163rd North Mi ami Beach, today; at Moore's Sundry Store, Ojus, or at Fran cis Bisson's in Hallandale. Prizes will be given for the largest fish of several species caught.

A special prize for the largest fish will be given each week. Blue Marlin Camp will furnish boats free to the youngsters from Monday to Friday. SOFTBALL PARK 5 0 1.000 LEAGl'E Flremm Cn.Sery. P. 23 PA.

Joe and Hattie Reese and Fred Steresaw, Fort Lauderdale, had quite a picnic when they went over to Boca Grande to fish for tarpon. Fishing with Capt. John Downing, aboard the boat Little John, they hooked, fought and brought to the boat 19 of the silverking weighing from 50 to 150 pounds.

Hattie caught her first tarpon which tipped the beam at around 95 pounds. All the fish were released by the party. Joe came out on top with a score of nine fish, Fred tot aled seven and Hattie collected three. A two-day trip up Lostman's river proved eventful for Dr. and Mrs.

M. Sewell Pinder and Mr. and Mrs. C. James, Miami Capt.

Bob Thompson and his son Lamarr were the guides aboard the cruiser Snooky. Trol- them 50 snook averaging five pounds, and a 15-pound tar pon. By the way, the Everglades Rod and Gun club will close tomorrow until Sept. 1, according to Lew Smith, manager.

Fishermen can call Everglades 2831 from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. during weekdays and from 9 a.m. until noon on Saturdays. Members of the West Miami Rod and Gun club will trek to Indian Key Fill today on a fishing outing.

They will enter their catches in the Keys Fishing Tournament. A picnic lunch will be served and provisions have been made to care for the youngsters of the members who cannot take them in skiffs and boats. William Slick and Herbert Hoffman, Philadelphia, went out from Toll Gate Inn dock, Lower Matecumbe, aboard the cruiser Lucky III, Capt. Martin J. Con-lin.

Slick connected with a 68-pound sailfish, that proved so full of battle it threw Skipper Conlin overboard when he tried to bring it aboard. However, he was helped aboard and the party resumed catching 24 dolphin, 12 barracuda, six bonito and four grouper. AVERAGES PA A Cobllns Ollp. Cgo. Surgeons HIBalls 4 EMPLOYES LEAGTE Pet.

Charles Organization Bill is a member of the Pelican Har- Yacht Club. Remarks Charles i one of the PHYC's veteran boat drivers. Miami regatta fans have long recognized his trade mark a cigar, clinched between his Charles teeth during racing runabout battles. Bill, a native Miamian, has been racing his Zee Zee in these events for quite a while, although until recently, his craft has not been among the top contenders. However, Bill rebuilt his power plant, and after running into prop trouble in the first heat of the PHYC's July Fourth races, practically ran off and left the entire fleet in the second heat.

He plans to run the Zee Zee after the class world straightaway mark on July 28 at the Indian Creek speedy trials. He will also run fin 'the South Florida LSD Major League Averages AMERICAN had sail boats, power boats and tug boats at the scene. Ralph Knowles of MYC was the first boat to reach the Key in the "race" in which but six boats participated. While that early morning attempt was a flop, the rest of the day was a howling success. Charlie Kitfef is nracticallv floating on clouds instead of walking these days over the great performance of his class Screamin Meemie II at the PHYC's fairly successful Fourth regatta.

Kittel was toy ing with the idea of running his tremendous craft in the marathon, but now that the boat has raced at about four miles ner hour better than the world class record, he is putting it in mother balls until July 28 and the Indian Creek speed trials. He's running at 74 mph. Another marathon note: Race committee officials announced that no protests will be allowed in the race. The only disqualification, will come on 'unsportsmanlike" conduct, which this writer has never yet seen in a marathon, or violation of qualification speed.

In the bonefish class a total of 40 gamesters has been turned loose by 13 contestants.

Bob Menzies of Miami Beach leads the group with nine fish to his credit. Menzies, a 15-year-old angler, set up the score during one day's fishing with guide George Jepson as they worked the Cape Florida flats. Max Rosenfeld and Max Mes- ser, both of Miami Beach, trailed Menzies with eight and six re leases respectively. No releases have been record ed in the white marlin section and the six chalked up for sail fish were posted by as many anglers, leaving that division wide open. In the tarpon class the race narrowed down to Mrs.

Adele Orgill of Memphis and Charles Silvers of Miami Beach. Mrs Orgill was credited with five tar pon release claims and Silvers with four. The total number of silver kings set free during the first 70 days of competition amounted to 27, with 15 making entries. Meanwhile, the tournament of ficials announced that no one has posted a claim for the James H. Norton Hard Luck trophy.

Almost any kind of hard luck, they pointed out, would be eligible. All that is necessary is to write the story in 150 words or more and leave it with the nearest weighmaster. GENERAL DIVISION African Pempano 22 8 M. A. Kaplan.

Midget Boys Day Slated At Beach The first annual midget boys' (5 through 8) softball sports day tournament will be held Friday at 10 a.m. at Flamingo Park under direction of Miss Alcene Hirsch and the other directors. About 50 or more boys are expected to compete on 5 play ground teams on the two big diamonds at Memorial Field.

Senior and junior boys swing into action in the afternoon when they compete in the annual boys shuffleboard tournament at 2 at FJamingo Park, also. Both singles and doubles will be offered and competition will be by individuals, not playgrounds. Eddie Shear, Washington Park, won the senior boys singles last year while Ed Rubin- off and Sid Yateman took doubles honors. Rubinoff will be back. Maury Moss, Polo Park, won the junior singles and teamed with Harvey Brickman to take the doubles event also.

interested within a short time, so any of you gals interested contact her at 78-4504. Drs. Kerr and Kane each had a good night at the Playdium Scratch Major Tuesday night with Doc Kerr having 634 and Doc Kane an even 600, and he had to get 211 the last game to make the 600 series. Al Carelly had 255 for high game. Marcella Arnold is getting to be quite a fisherman these days.

I hear she brought in a 20-lb. barracuda on the "Bowling Babe" with the Ehrlichs last week. They caught so many they just had to put them back. I hope I live to see the days when I catch too many fish. Buddy Lewis had a grand 545 in the Lounge Scratch last Tues day night.

Georgette Fadden of Miami and Flo oi West Palm took the doubles in the Orlando tournament while Flo took the singles. Evelyn Cox also of West Palm, captured the all-events, won the headpin event and came in second in singles. Those WPB gals can really bowl any time. Helen and George Kerr of Ft, Lauderdale won the mixed dou bles in Orlando with George shooting a nifty 713 scratch and they totaled 1255. Jane Moran did some nice work with the first annual tournament and has mailed out a fine report on the results.

They hope to put this tournament on and would like any suggestions that might help. Sorry I had to miss it. It was too bad about the car accident of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Reed of West Palm Beach and we trust they are both out of danger by njw.
