Sport Echoes

From Prince Oounty

New Brunswick intermediate baseball is still going strong. Wea- ther permitting, the 5t. John Cubs and the Ohltham Ironmen will finish a best-of-three series by the time Thanksgiving rolls around. That will mean that the final ser- ies for the intermediate champ- ionship of the Meritimes will not be completed until October 16th., and that only if the Wednesday and week-end holidays are all fine. Every year this situation gets worse. It's about time a. Maritime body that will be able to do some- thing about this unnecess y "Nation of play-offs were form- ed. If definite deadlines are not established the final series will be shoved ahead to the Christmas holidays one of these years.

When baseball. is‘ continued 1n the Maritlmes after the World Series south of the border is enm- pleted. some of the heads of those provincial associations should be presented with an almanac. They're getting their seasons all mixed up. I I O

May we add our congratulations to the Queen Square sporting heads for their action in relin- quishing claims to the track and field championship because they had discovered that one of their participants was over-age? The action they took should not have to be classed among the rare things 0i‘ earth, but, although it is rather deplorable, we're afraid we'll have to agree with the sports scribe who affirmed that it was rare. We are not accusing educa- tional institutions and other org- anizations o! conniving at dishon- esty, but they :.re very often much too careless about such things There ifnothing more deplorable than to allow o. youngster to gain honors in sports by the underhand method of lying about his age. It sells him the idea that crime does pay after all. All the good gained from competitive games is nulli- fied in this way. l O

Sometimes, o.‘ course, -the young athlete is not lying at all. it is just that the age brackets have not been made sufficiently clear to him. They should be made clear, however, and the import- ance of each young athlete's stay- ing wlthln his proper division em- phasized again and again. One day too old is as bad as one year, because dishonesty is dishonesty and misrepresentation is misrep- resentation regardless of the time involved, If sponsoring bodies were more careful about such things, there couldn't be those eases where a hockey team of minors is wreck- ed because half the players are over-age. It isn't much trouble for the governing odies to check the kids‘ ages as school registers can be made available to them.

The Summerside . High School boys have organized a basketball league. There are three teams, the Fiyers captained by Charles simp- son, the Knickerbockers captained by Clive Macdonald and the - what was that name? oh yes,_the Snappywaclrers captained by Paul Schurrnan. A league schedule will be drawn up in the near future and the boys hope to, get their games started sometime during the latter pert of October.

Mr. Elmer Pineau of the Sum- merside Academy, gave s. most in- teresting talk on the Common Ex- amining Board of the lllarillme Provinces and at the conclusion of his talk a. vote of thanks was ten- dered to him for his educational addrem. The next meeting oi’ the Association will be held on Novem- ber no.4.

Trans-Canada Highway. Via Road's Corner Is , Urged By S’side Board

At a regular monthly meeting of the Summeraide Board of Trade held last night which was presid- ed over by the president, Mr. TE. Hickey, C.A., a. resolution prepared by p special committee headed by RS. Hinton, in connection with the ‘rs-ens Canada. Highway was submitted for the approval of the board. Following tl the text of the res- olution: "Whereu the matter of the route for the trans-Canada. high- way was considered at a recent meeting o! this board

"And whereas it was felt that the proposerhhighway should be built where it will serve the most people and. that Bumrnerside be- ing the second largest centre of population in the Province, and the focal point of all traffic west of Sumrnerside, should be includ- ed in the ‘Frans Canada Highway system. "And whereu when the present

PN- pAVSd highway was constructed in

1085 from Borden to Charlotte- town via. Reed's Corner, these fac- tors were acknowledged and this route was accepted at that time as the Trans Canada Highway route.

"And whereas since‘ this route is now in s. bad state of repair and requires rebuilding, it would be an opportune time to have this road rebuilt as part of the Trans Canada Highway.

"And whereas in view of the fact that a trans Canada High- way is proposed to be built. across the Province of Newfoundland, linking each and oi’ the island, we submit that the same considera- tion should be given to Prince Ed- ward Island.

“Be it therefore resolved that the Summerside Board of Trade pet- ition the Provincial Government to have the present paved road from Borden to Charlottetown via Head's Corner dorm a. Dart of the Trans Canada Highway system and thus enable the majority of island people so benefit from the advant- ages of this road."

After a general discussion of the resolution, it was moved by Mr. Alan Holman and seconded by Mr. Fred Bell that. it be presented to the Premier of this Province by a delegation consisting of mem- bers frorn the Board of Trade and the Summerside Town Council and also the two local representatives of the Government.

Marine Wharf

Under reports of committees Mr. Fred Bell of the transporta- ticn committee introduced to the meeting the matter of the condi- tion of the Marine Wharf. Mr.. Bell said that there appears to be a great weakness in the wharf and that the railway no longer uses _the switch at the east side of the pier due to this condition. Mr. Bell felt that. some step should be taken to remedy this state of affairs. It was decided after some discussion that an official report of the condition of the wharf be obtained from the authorities.

The president Mr. TE. Hickey stated that he had discussed the matter with J. Watson MacNaught, MP, and that Mr. MacNaught. had stated that the wharf would be fixed this coming summer. Mr. tell was asked to write to the ONE. for~an official report on the wharf in general.

In connection with the matter of the cast end crossing Mr. Hickey said that he had conferred with the QNR, superintendent Mr. Montgomery and that he had been assured that this cross- ing at the east end of the town would be repaired shortly. It is purposed to level the rough crossing by an asphalt bedding for the ties.

The secretary, Mr. Harold Rodd gave a splendid report of the re- cent convention of the Maritime Board held at Charlottetown which he had attended as a del- egate from the Sumnierside Board. Mr. Rodd received the congrat- ulations of the local board on his report and congratulations were extended to Mr. Hickey on his ap- pointment as vice president of the Maritime Board for Prince Edward Island.

Mr. RS. Hinton. who was ep- polnted to the executive of the Maritime Board was also congrat- ulated by the members present. - S

to be used by the Kinsmen Club in their local service projects. The use of the warehouse for this one dance before it is pui to use for the storage of potatoes was grant- ed by the Department of Transport, through the Rood offices of Mr. J. Watson MacNaughi. parliamentary assistant to the Minister of Fish- eries and member of Parliamei-lt for Prince.-~S.

Commercial , Bowling league lie-organizes

—Mr. Earl Smith was elected president of the Summerside Com- mercial Bowling League at a meeting of the captain: and plgy- ers held in the Capitol Bowling Alleys on Monday evening, Oct- ober 3. The‘ meeting opened with the retiring pendent, Dutch Under- wood, in the chair. Sixteen teams were entered in the league and there was a fair number present representing each individual team. There was considerable discussion regarding the banquet which will be held at the end of the bowling season. The question of refresh- ments was brought up and it was decided that in order to have the refreshments that each bowler put one cent in the pot every time he makes a "goose egg". This was considered to be a good idea and should bring in an average of $25.00 at the end of the year. This wold help a. great deal in pur- chasing the necessary refresh- ments and furthermore encour- age the bowlers to go after the four pin. Several new teams were entered this year but es there are eight alleys there woul he ae- cnmmoclzltlon for only sixteen teams. With five men on each team bowling each night, there are eighty bowlers, fbrty bowling from 7.15 to 9 and the remaining forty from 9.0040 11.00 p.m. The newly elected president Mr. Earl Smith stressed the need to hold a monthly mfietint! on a date to be decided later to discuss reg- ular business and to knnrv where matters stood in the up and com- ing bowling league. The complete list of officers il as follows: President, Earl Smith: vice president, W. MacAusland; seedy-treasurer, Marvin Wiley; Agreements committee: Dutch Underwood and Victor Dodds.
