moonstone AS VltLAlNS TEAMS woos ronsnooinane For years at least as long as we can remember there has been law stating that persons under the age of is years old are not to be allowed in Billiard Haill commonly referred to Is Pool Booms When this reporter was of age to want to play pool but not yet 18 he complained its been few years since then and we still find reasons to complain about the law or whatever it may be We imagine that most of you menfolk have bent over 0131 table at one time or other And we imagine that you really enjoye it too In fact few people who have ever played the game could find any thing unpraiscwarthy to say about it In nutshell then we feel that billiards snooker or any game you wish to play on the tables is en joyablc and harmfree This brings us to the agelimit again Why in the world was this law ever passed Why should 16 and l7yearolds be exempt from shar ing in this fun our way of thinking billiards common term lsla game of skill with brawn being solely for the birds We must admit that weve seen hundreds of young fellows under the age of 18 in pool rooms Weve seen them play the game very well too So what are they doing wrong The only wrong we see inlsuch establishments is usually from the older fellows who it seems cannot miss shot without using viilgar language Is this language business the reason young lads can not enjoy the game if so then we think its high time that these lawmakers did little investigating merely walking into an establishment and find out what goes on therein We can promise you that more than 90 per cent of the abusive language is supplied by the eligible players not by the under 18s who occasionaily walk in without thought about breaking the law or anything else and enjoy game or two Weive seen police officers or whatcvcrtheir rank sort out the young uns and ask them politely mind you to leave We have also suffered from this in our younger years While the lawman is carrying out his duty the languagevof the other players not all just crude few will not change They have no respect for anyone which must include themselves Weve seen somerol the fatheads bellow with laughter at the fel lows under 18 who are being removed This we do not like We do not like abusive language at any time and for this reason we ask that some thing he done about it Then maybe those in charge will have their eyes opened We say let kids from 16 years enter pool rooms Let them enjoy themselves it is not they who are making the places unfit for hunman beings it is the tough guy or so he thinks that must express himself like Wild animal sorry wild animals that has made most of us look upon such establishments as dens of iniquity In most pool rooms there are notices upon the walls asking the players to refrain from letting their disgust run away With them Even if there are no such warnings we as human beings should know en ough We cannot expect the proprietor to make verbal warnings be cause wed bet our boots hed get one over the head immediately BANQUET BANTER It is contempt offlicourt for spectator defendant or anyone else to speak out of turn To our way of thinking it is in ponteniptof every thiiig decent to use abusivelaoguage at any time not solely in pool ronms arenas etc This brings us to something else Weve attended many sports banquets and on fewV occasions have left before it was over disgusted spoaker usually talking for his teammates is usually under the false impression that he must make his listeners laugh or else prove bore To make them laugh this fellow feels he must to be successful Brother How for off the track can some guys geti At this meeting we are referring to fellow who was presenting trophy made the fellows laugh not by insulting anyone or telling dirty story but by telling fishing story which was laughable and gossiny factual in fact well bet its been enacted in real life many mes There are those phrases that originally considered vile have be come commonplace and accepted in our everyday living If we must lets stick to those chosen few and try to erase the rest from our ton gues in the finale by leading off with double He stole third base and scooted across the plate as the PUC second baseman Verred on Don Richardsons tap in that dir ection The Examiner scored five times in the firstinning once in the third three more times inf the fifth
