. BACK STRETCH

Allan J. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson of Boston. Mass. were visitors at the Charlottetown Hotel over the weekend, returning home on Tues- day. They motored down to Car- digan on Sunday and visited the home where he was born. Allan grew up a sturdy young farm boy and early in life. like so many islanders, went to Boston where his energy and ability brought him rapidly to the front. When horse drawn vehicles were the means of kansportation he was given a high position with the firm he now owns and by aptitude and hard work developed it into one of the largest trucking firms in New England. Ycars ago horses were transplant- ed by motor trucks and the firm with its branches in other cities is I most important one. Mr. Wil- son's son occupies a responsible position with it.

Being a Prince Edward Islander he was naturally fond of horses and when his finances improved he joined the Metropolitan Speed-

Win Softball

The Sunshine Island Dairy and the Abbies remain the only un- defeated teams after one week's play in the City Softball Lea- gue. V

Last night the Dairy toppled the previously unbeaten B.Y.C. 14-7 while the Abbies smothered .Keefe Drug 16-2 and Barryis Lions whipped the Navy by a 16-4 score.

Playing coach Len Arsenault hit two home runs to lead the Dairy in their win over the B. Y.C. Arsenault sparked a big Dairy rally in the fifth with 1 three run round tripper.

The Dairy scored it runs in the fateful fifth to overcome an early 6-: B.Y.C. lead. Henry Hartinger pitched for the Dairy and gave up eleven hits. Ralph Pineau started for the B.Y.C. and was relieved by Joe Thistle in the fifth.

Angie Carroll was the defen- nive star of the game making several fine catches field for the Dairy.

Callum hit home runs for Lions while Maccalium had three hits in four trips.

TOP FLIGHT FORWARD!

In order to get Sawchuk. a three- time Vezina trophy Wilmer. the Bruins gave up topflight forwards Ed Sandford mid Real Cbevrefils, rookie forward Norm Corcoran. de- fenceman Warren Godfrey and rookie goalie Giles Boisvert.

The Red Wings. completing their second trade within a week, also sent forwards Marcel Bonln, Vie Stasiuk and Lorne Davis to Boston

That makes eight players Adams has traded from last year's team- which swept to an unprecedented seventh straight NHL champion- ship. and then added its second straight Stanley Cup title.

DEAL WITH CHICAGO

Last Saturday. the Red Wings sent Glen Skov. Tony Leswick, Johnny Wilson and Benny Woit to Chicago Black Hawks for Bucky Hollrngworth. D a v e Creighton, Jerry Toppazzini and Johnny Mc- Cormack.

Adams' strategy of "breaking up" championship teams is noth- ing new. In fact. it has come to be expected in Detroit hockey

circles. In the past. Jolly Jawn has dealth off such outstanding stars as goalie Harry Lumley and (le- fenceman Jack Stewart and Bill Quackenbush.

But Adams always had a fine rookie crop ready to step up to the Red Wings. He feels he has such a group of youngsters on hand now.

Despite his fine record with the Wings. it is generally understood Adams wasn't too high on Saw- chuk in recent seasons. His name had frequently been linked with trade rumors.

KEY PLAYER '

Sawchuk. key player in the latest deal. won the Calder trophy for being the outstanding rookie in the NHL in the 1950-51 season. That was the year he replaced Lumley, traded to Toronto Maple Leafs.

Terry. a saucy player with light-

goalie who was in the doghouse more than once during his five years with Detroit Red Wings. was traded to Boston Bruins in a "million-dollar" nine-player exchange between the two Nationiil Hockey League clubs announ-

But the Bruins undoubtedly are more than pleased to get.a goalie of Sawchuk's calibre and exper- ience. The netmindlng position long has been a problem for the Boston club, dating back to the time of Frankie Brimsek.

Glenn Hall. who took over dur-' ing Sawchuk's "rest" period. will be the Red Wings' new goalie, Adams said. Hall, a native of Hum- boldt. Sask., is 23 years old and has served in the Red Wing farm system for four years.

Seek Commission Probe Of Government Spending

OTTAWA (CPI - The Progres- sive Conservative Opposition is tie- ”' that an i 4 ” ' com-' mission review the whole field of government operations and spend- ing.

Oppoition leader Drew said

Tuesday in the Commons the in- vestigation could bring enormous saving in public funds by recom- mending business-like ways of run- ning the government. "The commission. he said. could get the facts on goveniment spend- ing which were hidden to Parlia- ment behind closed doors.

"Wherever any door has been opened. it has been found that sav- ings could be made by more ef- ficient methods . . ."

J. iii. Macdonneli. the party' fi- nancial critic, said few cabinet ministers are experienced business administrators. The expense of an inquiry would be trivial and the likelihood of savings enormous.

NON.-CONFIDENCE MOTION

The proposal for a comniision inquiry into "the organization of the various departments" of gov- ernment was made by Mr. Mac- donnell as an amendment to n gov- ernment supply motion and thus became a motion of non-confidence in the government.

Debate on the. proposal continues

day.

The Conservative proposal was the second attempt to put the mat- ter before the Commons. An ear-'

iier amendment by Mr. Drew was ruled out of order by Speaker Rene " J ' because of its references to government waste had been co- vered in no 'idence motions defeated earlier this session.

Mr. Drew accepted the Speak- er's ruling but said commons bus- iness would be strangled if previ- ously defeatcd motions were going to ”wrap a veil of invincibility around the government."

CCF leader Coldwell said he can- not support Mr. Macdonnell's pro- posal. it would mean abdication by Parliament of one of its fundamen- tal duties, the scrutiny of govern- ment expenditures.

He added that he does not con- done extravngancea and feels some spending. especially in' defence. can be cut.

NOT DOING JOB

But Parliament was not playing its role of checking expenditures. It was scandalous that the public accounts committee had not met this session. The opposition was as risponsible Is the government for t at.

Mr. Coldwell said the time may come when Parliament will be- come so ineffective in dealing with government expenditures that something like a commission will have to be called in to do the job.

The Commons moved into the de- bate on government spending after passing a bill making various changes in the Customs Act.

Returns From Impressive Ceremony In Newfoundland

OTTAWA, June 2. (Special) - On his return to Ottawa from St. Johns, Nfld.. J. Watson Mac- Naught. parliamentary assistant to Fisheries Minister Sinclair. to- day told The Guardian that he was most deeply impressed at the ceremony there last week when crews of the Portuguese fishing fleet presented a statue of Our Lady of Fatima to the St. Johns Roman Catholic Cathedral. Mr. MacNaught was the official re- presentative. of the government of Canada at the ceremony. "It was a great sight and a wonder- ful display of lnternationl friend- ship." Mr. MacNaught said. "The fishermen. 3,000 strong marched through the crowded streets of old St. Johns carrying the statue with them for presentation to the cathedral. They filled the church and were welcomed by the Arch- bishop who accepted the statue and blessed it.
