FOUR PRINCE OF WALES College students are back at their books this week after an eight-day stay in Western Canada. The

reason of the invasion’ of the West was the Canadian Schoolboy probably the most exciting of the Murray Harbour Bruins in strakt In the Men's League. a biz up-

Curling championships which were staged in Calgary.

The Welshmen finished the competition with a 6-4 record and behind 2-0 in the first end but | quite a way,along the “C’ narrowly missed grabbing three of the matches that they lost. surged ahead with two im the sec- offs Twe were lost by single points with another by a two-point mar- ond and three in the third. Scor-| not fee] too badly about losing. | games

gin. Had the locals been &ble to grab those three, they would have been the schoolboy champions of all Canada. That's how close these Charlottetown scholars came to capturing top honors.

THE SHOWING OF the local curlers was indeed\ a splendid one. This year’s rink was not considered by most folks in the know the equal of the 1958 foursome that almost squ out a Deminion crown here in Chariottetown last year. For thf reason alone, it was- felt that this 1959 quartet couldn't be ted to

win too many games. But these boys were not a bit ied by what the experts said. They went to Calgary full of ination | and that determination paid off handsomely. They aged to curl at a fine .600 clip and were very close indeed to making

that percentage read .900.

TT DOESN’T SEEM very long ago that when an Island rink went to a championsip such as this or the Brier, nobody ex- pected them to grab many wins. Victories came none too often in those first days of competition. However, of late, the situation has certainly changed. Island rinks now rank with the best of | them and no longer is a game with a Prince Edward Island entry a ‘soft touch’. '

These Welshmen were defimtely tough opponents and they bad only one had game in ten. That was the one with Northern Ontario which was a lost cause afyer three ends. The other nine were ‘good’ with the locals taking six of them. :

And so to these young curlers we extend heartiest congratu- lations. You did a great job and Prince Edward Island has every | reason to be mighty proud of you.

WE BET THERE were four young: gentlenien' in Montague | who- followed that curling in Calgary with a special bit of interest.

Of course we are referring to those four boys who gave -the Welshmen such a terrific battle before the locals gained the Island crown. Those boys from down east were within one stone | of capturing the provincial title. The Welshmen’s success must | certainly make them feel like mighty important young curlers ia this Canada. Their showing this year was a fine one and should | certainly make them go all out to try to oust the Welshmen as champions in 1960.

THE ISLAND Basketball league regular schedule is’ rapidly | drawing to a close and there's a red hot battle for that third and fourth playoff spot. i

At present Y.M.C.A. occupys the basement and there's little | time left for the ‘Y’ boys to do something about it. Tonight and | Wednesday night the present cellar dwellers play their last two | games of the schedule. Tonight they meet Welshmen who are | presently tied with Saint Dunstan's Seconds for third spot. Saints | and Welshmen own five victories in 12’ starts while the ‘Y’ stand- | ing is four wins and nine losses. Should the ‘Y’ drop this one te the city collegians tonight, they would have to win their remain- | ing one game while Saint Dunstan's are losing three. And that | would only give them a tie with the Red and ‘White, who are! guests of ‘Y’ Wednesday night.

HOWEVER SAINTS have a rather tough road ahead. Two of | their games are against Trotters and P.W.C. and you Can't go | figuring these soft ones for the boys from oyt the road. However, | Saints played fine ball last week and natrowly missed three | victories in as many starts. They did manage over RCAF Sultans | and YMCA and had the league-leading Trotters beaten 44-42 with | about ten seconds of play remaining. However, the Trotters tied it on Mark Ladner’s basket and won in overtime 54-51.

There’s no doubt about Trotters finishing on top of the heap. They have 11 wins in 13 attempts. Nobody can even come close now. But the way play has been going 6f late, ‘any of the three | teams making the playoffs should give the Trotters a good series. We are not expecting any team to unseat these Trotters as league champions but we are looking forward to some really good playoff encounters. ‘x ;

The jother rumor is the possibility of an artificial ice plant in Souris.

Souris definitely needs such a rink. Last season was a total flop as far as minor hockey was concerned because of the mild weather. This year cannot be call- ed a flop, but cannot be termed a complete success. This year a group of men took over minor) hockey in Souris. With the! amount of ice time available and. the great number of chikiren’ playing the season is too short to get our young players ready for Island playoofs.

There wag a time when eines hockey teams from Souris, al-| though they didn’t win many titles, commanded respect from) other Island centers. However, instead of winning many of their games, they're lucky if they win half. However, this year some- thing may be done about it. We may have more to repori next |
