Toronto, Ont. - Lodge $50
held a bowling meeting on
Sunday, August 21, 1855, at

Due to the great interest
shown in our bowling activi-
ties last year we have already
booked alleys this coming sea-
son for a ten team league. Ten
teams represents quite an in
crease from six squads three
years ago.

September 9, 1866, and each
week thereafter. The alleys
have been completely modern
lied and are about the best in
the city now.
Any bowlers, old or new
who desire to bowl this sea-
son, please get in touch with
bowling secretary Anthony ].
Filipovich or by phone, RO
2-4948. Due to the nearness
of the opening date and the
expanded bowling a ctivity
which we have embarked
upon, all bowlers will be most
welcome. On the other hand
we feel that the association
and recreation provided by
the bowling session will more
than reciprocate for joining
us.
A fact that we are sure
would interest C.F.U. bowlers
elsewhere is that our bowling
league of the past season was
able to give $4,000 towards
the construction of our new
Croatian Home in Toronto.
This was due to the close har-
mony during the 1954-55 sea-
son.

Nashua Heads
Big Field Of II
For Belmont

NEW YORK, June 10 (P.-
Nashua, the Preakness champion
headed an Unexpectedly large
field of II three-year-o -olds named
today for tomorrow's 87th rum
ming of the Belmont Stakes
third jewel in racing's Triple
Crown. .....
With this unexpected number
going in the mile and a halt
test. the value of the race is
I$122,80o, with $86.700 going to
the winner.
Dark horse in the race is Jab-
neh, mystery colt who changed
owners overnight. .Jabneh was
purchased from Laudy Lawrence
an American living in Paris, by
Mrs. Eugenia Bankhead, who will
race the colt in partnership with
Mrs. Luisa d'a Carpenter.
Others entered in the Belmont
were: Barclay Stables Blazing
Count, Clearwater Stables Por-
tersville, j. M. Seider's Uncle
Gus, c. v. Whitney's Little Dell,
King Ranch's Retamero, Howard
Winstein's Mr.. AL L., A. B. Gays

entry of the Cain Hoy Stable,
Flying Fury and Rajput.
Mr.. Fitx 81 Next Month
Victory for Nashua, conceded
by most experts, would be a nice
birthday present to MIR. Fitz, dean
of American trainers. who will
be 81 next month.
Nashua is the first Belmont
starter for William Woodward,
jr., who inherited the Belair Stud
upon the death of his father in
1853. The elder Woodward had
phenomenal success in the race,
winning five Belmonts in IL at
tempts beginning in 1924.
Gallant Fox was the first in
1880. followed by Faireno, Oma-
ha. Granville and Johnstown, the
last in 1889. After that the best
Belair colts were sent to England
where Woodward wanted to win
an EPSON Derby. Nashua also
was ticketed for England, but the
younger Woodward kept the colt
in this country.
Nashua Has Fast Workout
The big son of Nasrullall gave
his rivals something more to
think about yesterday when he
worked a half-mile in a swift
1926 while carrying $50 pounds,
including Bill McCleary and the
exercise saddle. He ripped off
fractions of .112s, 1925 and 1926
and galloped out five furlongs in
.5925. Mr.. AL L., son of Stymie,
worked six furlongs in 1:122s.
OF the Belmont field, only
and Flying Fury raced
in the Derby. which was won
by Rex C. Ellsworth's Swaps,
who returned to California.
Nashua is the only one of the
Belmont field to have started
in the Preakness, which looked
like it would be a drab race but
was a corker. Saratoga set a
blazing pace and Nashua had
to give it the works to win in
track record time.
Perhaps something will put a
spark under Nashua in the Bel
mont. which is to be televised
and broadcast on the Columbia
network (WTOP in Washington
from 4::30 to 5 pm. (Washing-
ton time.)
Portersville's owners were
among the last to make a deci-
sion about going after the Bel
mont, which has a value of $20,-
900 for second, $4,000 for third
and $1,000 to the fourth horse.
The Clearwater Stable is the
racing name for Ed Roberts and

Robert DeVicenzo of Argentina.
But Thomson and DeVicenzo
have played in many tourns-

scores were more or less ex-
pected, as was Harbert's.
The wet and chilly spectators
huddled around the 18th green
greeted the word of Van Donck's
10 with who's he?" and they
were equally surprised when
Tugot matched it.
Didn't Surprise Flory
Van Donck is a 42-year-old
Belgian who speaks English
with a decided British accent.
Actually, he is known in inter-
national golf as one of the
worlds finest players. In 1853 he
won the open championship of
seven nations. But what has pre-
vented him from being better
known is that he never. has
played we'll in the British Open.
Flory's 10 came as no surprise
to him. He said he is a consistent
player, seldom in trouble. and
that's the way he played yes
terday. He three-putted twice
and holed two long ones, 40 or
so feet. He hit great majority
of the green's in regulation
figures.
Tugot is 80. and what with
Van Donck being AZ and Di Vi
cenzo 38, proves that the United
States is not the only country
where the golf ghosts are into
