Yes sir, he reallyâ€"shone down on the gala opening of the Mt. Dennis Senior "B" softball leaguo, held last Saturday at Gibâ€" son‘s park, and from all accounts everyone had a great day. That white stallion and very comely rider, Mrs. Fred Wilkinson, was really something to see and it was no wonder everyone was folâ€" lowing her in the parade. Sure was a nice horse. They had a lot of noteables there Saturiday night, Reeve McMaster, Dept. Reeve Mofâ€" fat and the York Township Council. They‘re the ones that always offiâ€" cinll}{ open the season by throwing the first ball across the plate. All the directors and everything get set on the bases and one of them holds a bat in their hand. The crowd is cheering in the backâ€" ground â€" and there‘s the pitch, It‘8 a line drive down to third base and the runner is picked off at first, I often wonder what would hapâ€" g:n if that runner ever got to first se safely â€" would they continue the game? Or would they just say come back next year and we‘ll let you be the batter again. It would get to be rather confusing after a while. Moores and Ferrantis started off the loop and it was a close game all the way, especially the last two innings. Mbores finished up on the short endâ€"of a 7â€"4 score, but it wasn‘t because they didn‘t try. Don‘t worry about a little thing like three runs, there‘s lots of However, as it was, Mr. Gibson did notefet to first base ana the scheduled games began. . .

ONT. #4 games to be played during â€" the season yet. _ & holse The second game to put: it mildly, sort of â€"slow, ;:..bohu A.A. took the lead from the first and kept it until the finish, trouncing Moffats 15â€"3. But as was menâ€" tioned before, this was only the first game of the year and once the lads get into the swing of it, everything will prove to be a little different. There‘s a sad news for those Weston citizens who were looking forward to the Miller A.C. Minstrel Show scheduled for tonight and toâ€" morraw. night. So sorry, folks, but there just isn‘t going to be one. It seems most of the star perâ€" formers are going to be away 03 the aforementioned dates, an after allâ€"one~ can‘t holdâ€"a show without any actors. Then, too, the heavy sports program the club has planned for t?xe future is keeping the boys pretty busy on the pracâ€" tise field these days, and so with everything taken into consideration it was decided to forget about*it until next fall. With all summer to think about the show, there should be a pretty good programme lined up by then. e ho Speaking of the Miller Club we noticed their esteemed president, Jack Ashbee, getting in a little preâ€" season footwork t‘other day.Two C.N.R. officials who were ?usily engaged searching for a missing rock out of their road bed, were too preoccupied to notice their transportation _ means, (better known as a "jigger"), moving slowly but surely down the track. However, they had naught to fear, for out of a nearby coal yard came a speeding flash. Was it a bird? Was it a plane? Was it Kilroy? No! It was Jack Ashbee, and with the strength of Superâ€" man, plus a little of his own, he stopped the fleeing vehicle in a thrice. â€" So far no report has come through on the lacrosse box, schedâ€" uled to go back in the fairgrounds shortly. The cold and wet weather has delayed operations to date, but now with the.kind consideration of the weather fman, plans should go ahead rapidly. Let‘s hope‘ it is erected and in good shape for the opening game May 23. 5 All the young fry were down at the Fairgrounds on Monday for the annual High School Field Igay comâ€" petitions, partaking of jumping, running, discus throwing and all the other events on the scheduled program. a â€" _ All Jack has to say about this outstanding deed was â€""Aw, it ‘twarn‘t nuthin‘." Last reports before press time was that three records had been broken during the day. June Plant took the senior girls high jump with 4‘ 6"; previous record was 4 1". Bill Kennedy took high honors in the Senior running broad jump, while D. Clark broke the previous record for junior boys discus throwing. Could be that these lads and lasses show the prospects of becoming Olympic enâ€" trees in coming years. |_ _ â€" The return basketball bout beâ€" tween Weston and Barrie proved to have the same outcome as the one held at Barrie two weeks ago, except that both the Weston girls and ‘)o,\'s showed decided improveâ€" ment in their games; Weston lads were on the short end of an 18 to 7 score, while the gals lost 16â€"14. It was a treat to see those teams fight so hard and it was only through a little tough luck on Weston‘s part that they lost at all. The girls not only had to compete against the Barrie team. mates but also against the Barrie referee who has just finished a course on "How to Hand Out Fouls". At the end of the first half Weston was leading 9â€"5 and playing a fast game ‘all around. However, during the last half thinfis went against them and they ended up just two points behind the Batrie 'f‘eam. The boxs' game got off to a slow start and took some time before the lads found out where the hoop was. They had the general idea but that was about all. Eatough, Wri{{\t and Plant were the scorers for Weston while Berton and Mcâ€" Kenan were the top scorers for Barrie. Reports have it that nine teams will be entered in the Peel and York Softball League this year. Bolton, Kini, Maple, Nobelton, Nashville, Se omherfi, Thistletown and Woodbridge will be repreâ€" sented. Nurse (suspiciously): _ _"What have you been doing, Joan?" Joan: “gtnver's eaten mJ' dolly‘s slippers, s6 I‘ve been getting even with him." "How ?" "I‘ve been to his kennel and drinked his milk." The possibility of Canada‘s 1947 (.)85" beet production beinf 70,000,â€" pounds smaller than last year is seen by growers. _ The manager heard that the £6â€" aâ€"week clerk had a car, and asked him how he could afford it, with four children. L o e "Oh, that‘s easy," said the clerk. "There are 500 of ug employed at this factory, I nlha my wages every week at a shilling a go." yours D. GREENWOOD GUIDE, WESTON The above six hockey players were selected by the coaches of the six NHL teams as the NHL all star squad for the 1946â€"47 season. Rather conspicuous by their absence are the Stanley Cup winning Maple Leafs, but maybe that is proof of wellâ€"distributed power and good team work on the part of the locals. Anyhow Durnan in goal, Bouchard and Rearâ€" dort on‘ theâ€"defence, Schmidt at centre, Richard at right wing and Bentley at left wing add up to a coach‘sâ€""dream team." Although there hasn‘t been much encouragement by the Weather Man, vacationâ€"time is almost upon us again; and with it comes the old problem, "What shall I wear?" Many girls, mostly the "juniors" in the office, are given their vaâ€" cations a little out of seasonâ€"late spring or early fall. These girls have a bigger problem with their vacation wardrobes than their more fortunte sisters who will holiday during the summer months. Many girls who vacation at this time of the year decide to ‘Go South." I don‘t mean as far south as Miami or the Carribeanâ€"after all, this column is for workingâ€"girls â€"but visits to borderline Ameriâ€" can cities are very popular. This presents a definite wardrobe probâ€" lem. The playsuits and sunâ€"dresses that usually pad the vacation clothâ€" ing budget are out, so we will have to consider the clothes problem in ‘relation to the vacationer‘s needs. Before you start buying your vaâ€" cation clothes, analyze your needs. Will you be participating in any sportsâ€"golf, {)ow]ing, fishing or riding? Will most of your time be taken up with sightâ€"secing, ferretâ€" ing out new. and ‘"interesting" Yestaurants, or just visiting? The basic item of your wardâ€" robe, of course, will be your suit. And choose one that is travelâ€"wise, please. If your suit is a good backâ€" ground, you can switch your acâ€" cessories, change the style or color of your blouses and you will have that "well dressed feeling" all the time. The variety in your wardrobe lies in the variety of those blouses. Crisp white tailored blouses for daytime, and a tailored one‘ in | some interesting tolour would be nice, too. More feminine blouses for afternoons, or special lunchâ€" eons. Try and work a couple of hats into your vacation wardrobe. There are many styles that: are "packable," and high on the list are the little flower chaplets that are so adaptable to so many cosâ€"| tumes. Perfect with suits, and| equally charming with & more dressâ€"up dress. You can seem to enlarge your wardrobe by the addition of a draped crepe skirt. These come in many flattering styles and are modestly priced, Wear one with your blouses and you have another dressy outfit, You will need one really good dressâ€"for dancing, the theatre, or special dates.

It demands a minimum of care and is always smart. . Sightâ€"seeing is wonderful exerâ€" ciseâ€"but, it‘s hard on your feet; so pack a pair of shoes that will provide adequate support for all your windowâ€"shopping tours, as well as compliment your various costumes. Of course, you‘ll want a pair of really frivolous shoes for sgecial occasions, but don‘t ask them to hold you up for long hours of sightâ€"seeing. Next week we‘ll plan some practical wardrobes for the later vacationer. Have a good time, and ‘bye now. Every week on this page, a table of the most popular player in the Mt.
