BRAVES EDGE OUT JAGUARS 2-1 TO SET THEMSELVES UP AS A PENNANT THREAT By "KEYSTONE"

Eddie Carvalho's aroused Braves handed their arch-rivals, the Jaguars, another bitter defeat yesterday by edging them out 2-1 in a fast, thrilling game to set themselves up again as a formidable pennant-threat this year.

In the other Senior "A" game, the unpredictable Madcaps blew an early nine-run lead to drop yet another decision to the fast-stepping Warriors.

Two strictly one-sided affairs were fentured in the Ladies' League with the Squaws administering a merciless 32-2 drubbing to the evergreen CAA girls, while the Pool To schoolgirls shoved the Pandas a little further downstairs with a 15-3 defeat.

The Golfing Dream That Came True

By HENRY

A New Zealand golfer, it appears, recently had a dream in which with great clarity he saw himself holing out in one on his local course.

He mentioned the matter to his wife who, in turn, during the course of the morning's shopping, mentioned it to various of her friends, later destined to be called upon as independent witnesses.

Seventeen-year-old Peter Head of Ilford, England's fastest boy swimmer, who has competed so successfully in senior events and who represented Britain at the Helsinki Olympic Games, has finished another season of triumphs.

He holds the Essex 440 Yards and 100 Yards Free Style men's titles, the Southern Counties Men's 220 Yards and Ilford Men's 100 Yards and Medley titles, and recently he successfully defended his English Schools 100 Yards Free Style Championship. He attends Leyton County High School and hopes to go to one of the Universities.

Photo shows Peter, who is 6 feet 2 inches in height, polishing up some of his 50 medals and 12 trophies won in swimming competitions. He is wearing his British Olymple blazer.
