'I'he first line that every typing student learns to type is "Now is the time for all good men to come tti the aid of the party." The same line could be applied It) every athletic organization es- pecially at this time of the year. It holds especially true for the Abegweit Amateur Athletic As- sociation whose annual meeting is being held tonight at the Armour- ies. For those who wish to aid and promote athletics in the City they should heed the sltttan "Now is the time to come to the. aid of the Club."

a a c

There is I challenge facing those wliu are interested in athletics in the City. it takes a lot of Work and brains to keep athletics functioning. In Iddition to the admirable qualities of work and brains I great deal of interest is needed. The brains we have always had around these parts but the work and the in- terest has oftentimes been lack- ing. As I result I few have been forced to carry the load but those few can't continue to devote their ltime and energy forever and they want some assistance in promoting the - programmes and they want it now.

Ted Williams With Troubles Settled To Report On Friday

BOSTON (AP) - Ted Williams. one of basebIl1'I Iii time great- est hitters. ended his retirement Wednesday with I phone call to the Boston Red Sox that he would arrive Friday.

Williams called generIl Joe Cronin from Miami where the final settlement of his divorce was recorded Wednesday morning.

"I'm not going to wait Iny longer," Ted told Cronin. I've spent two days with my daugh- ter. I'd made up my mind to play, baseball again before the settlement was completed."

Although Williams never has explained his decision of last year to quit baseball. friends said his marital difficulties were the prin- cipal reason.

PAY LUMP SUM

Now that they have been re- solved these some friends say that was Ill be needed to bring him back.

Under terms of the decision handed down Wednesday in the Mtanii court. Williams must pay his divorced wife 350,000 within two years. giving her It least sl25 weekly.

He also must pay 8100 monthly for support of their daughte. Barbara, 7.

The judge also Iwarded Mrs. Williams the family's 842.000 South Miami home and the family car. and ruled Ted must pay 86410 court costs.

CLEARED WAY

There had been reports that Williams would not return to baseball if he had to pay his for- mer wife I percentage of his earnings as alimony. The lump- sum award ruled that out and ap- parently cleared the way for him to come back.

"I'm grateful and happy Ibout this." said Cronin It the Sex of- lice at Fenway Park. "Ted sound- ed like he was Inxlous to play ball.

"He felt he would have to have I settlement before tie would be any good to anybody. Being the perfectionist he is. it's easy to understand his Ittltude." -

The arrival of the long but hitting letthander. with 366 home runs and I .348 lifetime batting average in over 12 years of major league play. comes It the right The programs have been d t ed by men who were most in- terested in sports and most in- clined to work. Those men. who have been devoting I lot of their spare time to Iports developments. are loking for more men of the same calibre and ideals.
