Always popular with local punters, the little mare racing under the colors of Mrs. E. Stewart and trained by Don Car-ley showed a clean pair of heels to the leading handicappers at the meeting, including the great Sahara Chief, first-ranking thoroughbred In the Nanaimo stable of Mrs.

Frank Beban. Some Turley was built up as somewhat of a Cinderella horse while running for Mr, and Mrs. George Simon, with the result the mare has a big following. She failed to show her best form last season, but It looks like Carley has the mare In sound running condition this year, as the little gamester has displayed markc'd improvement every time out. Speaking about racehorses, here is quite a story about that great eastern campaigner Doubl-rab.

It seems that Doublrab is more of a Cinderella horse than Market Wise. There was no stall for Doublrab at Cicero, 111., when an iceman named Janeckl purchased the sprinter of this year for $100, so the stake-a-week four-year-old was stabled in a coal, shed. Doublrab was raced at Sportsman's Park by Janecki's two sons, eventually wound up at Tropical Park, where the son ht Sherab was bought by Mrs. Tilyou Christopher of Miami for $6,000. With his fourth straight victory, TJoublrab has earned $41,770.

Doublrab prevailed at Delaware, Narragansett, Belmont and Aqueduct. In his $3,370 victory in the Army and Navy Handicap at Aqueduct, Doublrab set a track record for six furlongs 1.10.2, two-fifths under the old mark held by Stimady, Arch-worth, Early Delivery and Ek-wanok. He carried 125 pounds, conceding eight or more to Over-1 drawn, Parasang and Col. Teddy, Marjorie Gestring, United States champion, glides gracefully following high dive into Town House Pool, Los Angeles. Picture was taken from under-water gallery.

Army Nine Wins Again Takes Third Place one run and that on Nicol's wild Canadian Sport Snapshots Pan Twilight Racing Army baseballers continued their sensational climb in the local circuit Monday night as they knocked over Pitzer and Nex 3 to 1 and hurdled the gasmen to take over third place. The Army hold third position by a half game margin over Pitzer and Nex. Much credit for the victory went to Jerry Whitney, hardworking right hand hurler, who let Pitzer and Nex down with five hits and was robbed of a shutout when an error by his catcher gave the opponents their only run in the seventh inning. Whitney got into a couple of bad spots but was always able to pitch himself out. He struck out eight and didn't issue a walk.

Left-hander Ritchie Nicol worked the nine innings for Pitzer and Nex and heaved a fair ball game. ie gave up seven hits, struck out 11 and walked two. Nicol gave away a run when a wild pitch allowed a man to romp home from third. Army club will make its next appearance Friday jiight in, a game against the league-leading Victoria Machinery Depot, and coach Tommy Green promises a couple of surprises. He is confident his boys will continue their great win streak.

TAKE EARLY LEAD Army grabbed off a one-run lead in the second inning. Milli-ken was safe on an Infield blooper that Harper played badly at third base. Wareheim walked and both, runners were sacrificed along by Kilbiski. Milliken scored on BUeksi's fly out to centre field and Whitney fanned for the third out. Second inning saw the soldiers get another run.

Dale beat out a weak roller down third baseline, and went all the way to third on Gerrard's single to right field on a smart hit and run play. Gerrard pilfered second. Milliken drew a life on Harper's error, Dale crossing the plate. Nicol retired the side with no further damage. Army loaded the bags In the sixth but were able to get only Double Duty among others.

That is 10 pounds more than any of the former record-holders lugged. He is at Empire City for the $5,000 Fleet Wing Handicap at six furlongs, July 18. Some idea of the scarcity of ball players Is seen in the fact that the Cincinnati Reds of the National League will stage a try-out camp at Everett, starting Thursday. When a major league outfit has to come out west and hold a camp for aspirants, conditions must be getting bad. All candidates will receive free tuition but must furnish their own equipment.

Mickey Shader, veteran pro player and Cincinnati Red scout, will be it charge of the school. The Reds secured Harry Craft, Frank McCormick, Whitey Moore, Junior Thompson, and others of their star performers through similar camps. The Cincinnati organization is hopeful of uncover ing some more diamonds in the rough as a result of this method. After enjoying the fine trout fishing offered at Cowichan Lake we have been talked into trying the sport offered at Saanich Arm. A real Brentwod enthusiast will act as our host and promises some.

action with what he calls "real fish." We have tried Brentwood before but never could get much kick out of dragging around half a hardware store with enough weight to drown a couple of people. But we are willing to try again and will tell you later about the result. Watching Saturday's ball game between the Army and R.C.A.F. teams we were struck by the amount of improvement displayed by the services clubs since the start of the campaign. Take the Army nine for instance.

In less than two weeks it climbed from the cellar to fourth position and shows signs of providing tough opposition for any of the other squads. By the time the playoffs roll around it should be a toss-up as to which team will emerge champions. made Williams act so childishly Schmidt agreed in the public prints that it was the crowd's privilege to boo and dug in all the harder The comparison between Schmidt and Williams is a sharp one. 2 Victoria Boys In R.C.A F.

In the last of the seventh Pitzer and Nex ruined Whitney's shut out. Barber opened the inning with a long hit to left centre for two bases. Harper popped to shortstop. Nex lifted a single over shortstop and Nicol was hit by a pitched ball to fill the bases. Morgan struck out but catcher Milliken let the ball get away from him and Barber scored.

Bob Montgomery Tackles Anqott PHILADELPHIA (AP) Bob Montgomery, until a few months ago regarded as the uncrowned lightweight champion, stands at the crossroads of his fight career tonight. i The Philadelphia negro tangles with Sammy Angott, lightweight champion from Washington, and Louisville, in a nontitla 12-rounder at Shibe Park that is expected to draw close to 20,000 spectators and gross $40,000. Twice beaten by Angott in previous meetings at Shibe Park and Madison Square Garden, Montgomery must win to regain the prestige he lost when Angott defeated him last March at New York.

1 York Share Star Roles NEW YORK (AP) Better all-star games possibly will be played than Monday night's spectacle at the Polo Grounds in which the American League once again slugged the National into a 3 to 1 defeat before a benefit crowd of 33,694, but it is difficult to imagine one more dramatic. One minute after big Ernie Lombardi of the beaten National Leaguers lifted- a lazy fly to right field to end the contest, darkness closed over the big arena as part of New York City's second wartime blackout. For 22 minutes, the crowd that for two hours had cheered itself hoarse sat tense and almost silent. They sat as at a wake for the blasted hopes of the National Leaguers, who had entered the 10th annual struggle with such a burning determination to win and had seen their chances vanish almost with the first pitch. Where the Nationals had planned to invade Cleveland today for a climactic appearance against the service all-stars in Municipal Stadium tonight, they found themselves instead returning chastened to their respective clubs while the triumphant Americans headed for the west and additional glory.

Monday night's game was over to all intents and purposes when Lou Boudreau, Cleveland's handsome young manager, laced the second ball pitched by Mort Cooper of St. Louis Cardinals Into the deep left field stand. The Nationals from that instant must have felt it was hopeless. The crowd did, anyway. Here was Boudreau, who is not a distance clouter and had, in fact, hit only one previous home run this year, blasting for the circuit off Cooper, the National League's outstanding pitcher.

Further, the Nationals must have recalled with a sudden chill that Ted Williams had closed last year's all-star battle at Detroit with a homer. UNSETTLED COOPEK At any rate, Boudreau's blow must have unsettled Cooper, who had been manager Leo Durocher's game-time choice to start instead of Claude Passeau of Chicago his original selection. For the next American Leaguer, Tommy Henrich, dumped a double into right-centre, and after the next two men went down big Rudy York of Detroit Tigers caught a pitch late and lifted It into the upper deck in right field. From there on, with the Americans boasting a three-run lead and their pitchers Spud Chandler of the Yankees and big Al Benton of Detroit setting the Nationals down inning after inning, there was never much doubt that the junior leaguers had won their seventh victory in 10 -all-star duels. Mickey Owen, the Brooklyn catcher who failed to stop a third strike and was the goat of the 1941 world series, saved his side from a shutout with a pinch home run off Benton in the eighth.

He had first tried to bunt. He was the only National Leaguer to get past second base, and precious few of them got even that far as Chandler and Benton issued only six hits. The support the Americans save their two pitchers was brilliant. York and Boudreau, not content with batting the Nationals into submission, each contributed a fielding gem. York robbed Johnny Mize of what looked like a certain hit in the second inning, and Boudreau cut short the first genuine National threat of the game in the seventh when he made a running, diving catch of a liner by Peewee Reese with two on base.

Durocher's big mistake, as it turned out, was in starting Cooper instead of either Johnny Vander Meer of Cincinnati Reds or Passeau. Both proved to be in dazzling form as they toiled in a cause already lost. Vandy. his southpaw curves fairly crackling, allowed only two singles in the three innings he worked, and one of those was an extremely scratchy one by Joe DiMaggio. For two frames Passeau yielded only one single, that also by DiMaggio.

Bucky Walters of the Reds sat the winners down in order in the ninth, striking out Ken Keltner of Cleveland Indians. Softball Tonight Tonight's senior A men's soft-ball game, will see the Barons oppose the Navy at the Athletic Pnrk star-tin or at 6.45. Secretary Ed AVhyte announced today no definite plans had been made for a third game between the Navy and 30th Ack Acks. NEW YORK (AP) The triumphant American Leaguers sat in the dark and celebrated their all-star victory Monday night, and all hands agreed it was largely achieved through a couple of fast balls that couldn't get by Lou Boudreau and Rudy York. The squad of winners stormed into the dressing-room after the victory, but they hardly had time to pitchers Spud Chandler and Alton Benton on their backs and give batters Boudreau and York a couple of "nice guys" before the city-wide blackout put their quarters in pitch darkness.

For Chandler, it was a "helluva thrill," because he was the winning pitcher the first crack out of the box for him as an all-star. "I mixed 'em up with curves, a slider, a change of pace and some fast balls," he said. "I got a kick out of the game, but the biggest belt came when Boudreau and York hit those homers in the first inning. That's the first time anyr one ever did that for me." GORDON SPEAKS Joe Gordon, the American League's leading batter, who fanned three times during the proceedings, said a screwball, a curve with the count three and two and a fast ball kayoed him in that order. He and the entire American League cast agreed that the big thing in the National League set up was the "stuff" Johnny Vander Meer, Cincinnati Reds' smoke-baller, served up to them "in the three frames he worked.

The National Leaguers, meantime, did not take the loss too sereiously, although disappointed at having lost. "I'd start Cooper again if I had to do it all over again," manager Leo Durocher insisted when asked why he hadn't elected to open with the Chicago Cubs' Claude Passeau, or Brooklyn's Whit Wyatt. asked Mort how he felt and he told me So I put him in. "After all, the homer York hit and the one Mickey Owen hit for our only run would have been fly balls to the outfield in any park but this, with its short right and left field walls. And the one Mize hit, that was caught 'way out there, about 450 feet, would have been good for four bases anywhere else.

"Best guy on the American League Club that's easy, it was Boudreau. Batting and fielding, he was aces." Coast Leaguers In Final Drive The second half of the Coast League baseball season gets under way tonight and it appears the fans are in for some exciting baseball. Recovery before the home-town supporters is the incentive at Portland where the last-plas Beavers, who have been in a bad slump, meet their northern neighbors, the Seattle Rainiers for the first time this season. Seattle is in fifth place and a few wins by the Beavers would cheer Portland fans considerably. The San Diego Padres are ex-pected to prove inhospitable hosts to the league-leading Sacramento Solons who lead the third-spot Padres by five and a half games.

If the Padres give the Solons trouble, the runner-UD Los An pp. les club could nose into first place by making up two and a half games at Oakland. A team enjoying a hot win spree has reason enough to show pepper on the diamond and backers of the San Francisco Seals hope their favorites can extend a five-game streak at the expense of Hollywood.

Western Amateur Golf Opens Today SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) Amateur golf's last big fling of the year, and probably for the duration of the war, got under way here today in the 43rd playing of the western amateur championship. Although a number of the links sharpshooters are in military service, the field of nearly 100 shaped up impressively, headed by Cpl. Marvin "Bud" Ward, national and western champion. Cpl.

Ward, stationed at nearby Fort Wright, returned from a California honeymoon in time for a last minute fairway tune-up. He's the man to beat for the title and the long, fairly flat par 72 Manito course is made to order for his game.

Pressing Ward in the title chase will be such topnotchers as Cpl.

QakWs Play Jokers Tonight Oaklands, third-place occupants in Greater Victoria box lacrosse and only a game and a half out of second spot, hope to jockey into position for a crack at second place when they have played Jokers tonight. Game time is 8.30 at the Sports Centre. The Oaks are three points behind the fast-climbing United Services and have been going great guns themselves recently. Bob Mclnncs, their manager, is confident of taking the game, especially with the acquisition of Mike Cunningham, who in his only game to date has stamped himself as fine a player as in the city today.

lake Plans for Si NEW YORK (AP) Officials and club owners of the major leagues meeting in three lengthy sessions Monday, discussed the possibility of altering the plans for the 1942 world series, hut left the final decision to the advisory council. A long joint session, which followed separate league meetings and lasted almost till time lor the all-star game, wound up with both leagues leaving the series entirely in the hands, of the council, composed of commissioner Kenesaw M. president Will Harridge of the American' League and President Ford Frick of the National League. Leslie O'Connor, secretary to the commissioner, said after the final meeting that the only definite plan for. the world called for the contribution of a part of the receipts to war relief.

All other details will be worked cut by the advisory council, which did not set a date for a meeting. The council usually hold a regular session about a month before series time. Considerable talk in baseball circles had' involved the possibility of playing a world series longer than the usual seven games and taking the later games on a "tour" of several cities, and-, it was assumed that such an arrangement was among the matters discussed.
