Notes
on the
Games

, Apropos of all the political
*atmishing over the Games,
IS is what Reg Leonard, in-
Sthationally known sports
; lumnist, wrote in the Mel-
y ourne Sun News-Pictorial.
h Tt would be deplorable if
+! tempers swept away com-
8 sense during the Olym-
4 Games. . .
There have been threats
that Some angry anti-Com-
ests will refuse to acknow-
6€ the Soviet flag and that
tee? athletes will be os-
) ecizeq because of the Krem-
me latest excesses in Eur-
ope,
pet Would be folly for the
diy alians to join in or the
fo ities to tolerate any
n of calculated insult to
MY of the people who are to
a Sur guests for the next
path,

May be held, are suppos-

Members of Trinidad’s Olympics team were in Vancou-
ver briefly last week en route to Melbourne. They are
(eft to right): Dr. Rodney Marcane, manager; Alex Chap-
man coach; Lennox Kilgour, weightlifter; Rodney Wilkes,

weightlifter; Edmund Turton, sprinter; Hilton Mitchell. By

the time of the next Games there will be no separate Trini-

did team because the island will have become part of the

new West Indies confederation and Trinidad athletes will _
become part of a new West Indies entry.

Larsen gives credit for no-hitter to Paige

NEW YORK

Don Larsen, the fifrst man
in baseball to pitch a World
Series no hitter — and a per-
fect game to boot — gives
credit for the historic feet to

Satchell Paige, he told a re-
porter of the Pittsburgh

Courier.
Larsen explained that when

he came out of the US.
Army and reported to the St.
Louis Browns at spring train-
ing in 1935, the veteran Negro
star was. his mentor and friend.
“Satch told me I could be one
of the greatest,” he recalled.

“Satch had everything but
youth,” Don told reporter
James Bayack of the Negro

weekly. “He had more pitch-
ing savvy than any I've ever
seen, and he taught me many
of the tricks he used to fool
the batters.

“You got to vary that curve
ball, kid,’ he used to say,
“And he’d show me how. Satch
said there’s only one rule for
pitchers, and that’s to be the

boss in the ball park from the
Firsts

“To pitch that perfect game,”
the 27-year-old Californian
went on, “I think I threw
every kind of ball Satch used
to talk about in those evenings
out in St. Louis. I got my
curve jumping and I got it
sinking. I fired that ball low
inside and high outside.
