THE GUARDIAN, CHARLOTTETOWN

PAGE SEVEN

Charlottetown Garrison Officers badminton players will be seeking to turn the tables ofi racquet wield-

ers from- the Summerside club when they clash in the second of inter-club matches at the Ann- ouries this evening but judging by the form tonight's visitors showed on their home courts the locals are going to experience plenty of trouble before the final match is played. O O O

These same inter-club matches have been going on now for the pest several seasons and are ei- ways eagerly looked forward to. In the past we are of the opinion that Charlottetown players usually held a slight edge but evidently Sum- merside have come up with a strong group of players this season who may well take the laurele beck to the western capital.

I O O O

But there is a ‘bright side 0o every story. Despite their one-sid- ed defeat a perusal over the scores of Wednesday's matches shows that in s big majority of the games the closest of competition was forth- coming particularly in the ladies‘ division and it may be that play- ing on home courts Charlottetown may be able to turn the tide. But the big question is can they turn it as decisively as their opponents did in Summerside.

O O O O

Badminton is enjoying keen popularity both here and in Surn- mersido this season. Like the oth- er brsnches of sport the game ap- pears headed for a strong come- back. The local Armouries is the scene" of much activity several tim- es during the week with a long waiting list usually to be found awaiting s chance to get into ex- hibition games and those closely connected with the game are vis- ualizing the time as not too far distant when the game will fig- ure prominently in the Island sporting scene.

O O O

Skeet shooting, another sport which died out during the wsr years is expected to gct underway here on May 24th. Last year the game was revived with much in- terest being shown by s. goodly number of msrksmen and although an unavoidable late start was made the game was proving quite pop- ula.r at the close of the season.

O O O O

In the off-season plans have been drawn up to put the Skeet Club on a‘ firm footing. Member- ship is expected to show a sharp increase and with the range being moved to the new rifle range st Alexandra the outlook is consid- ered exceptionally bright for this type of sport.

O I I

No further word has been heard of the rumored game between Kins- men and Reece juniors next sun- day afternoon and it now appears as if the City League will open the season after all on the 30th of the month. However it shouldn't be long before the juniors will be all set to go and once various matters have been straightened. out the local junior league shouldn't be far

behind the intermediates in get- ting their loop going. I I O I Meanwhile City League teams

are getting in every available date for practice sessions. The weather is still holding matters up some- what but other necessary plans conducive to the running of e strong league are being finalized and from May 30th on the league is expected to go along in the smoothest manner possible.
