Letter to the Editor: ar = PR AE Se Las Bat + + SY Ahmed "REPORT by sill Fitsell J "B . AND THE BAND PLAYED ON . Like the true sport we think - he is, Don Mark, manager of the defunct Tri- -County league entry here, came back-with his side of the story of the Ports sudden disappearancé. We don't "wish to prolong: the squabble any further or blow it out of propartion but Dou's. words call for further comments Starting at paragraph two; we agree that" cach team should try to field a contender but to add players which they knew were completely ineligible after July 1, was only asking for trouble. . As for the London Majors situation mentioned in para- graph three the reason the Inter- -County bowed to that téam was be- cause the league didn't have the time or the money to fight a court injunction-with playoffs coming up. We agree that some Tri- County team should have filed a protest on the players in question before they were ruled ineligible but regardless of that what kind of a set-up would any group have if any team could bring in 'ringers', win games, and expect the points to count in-the final standings? As for para- graph four the first game of 'the play-offs was only tentatively scheduled for Port Perry as Sutton had the right to. the opener at home and that's what their manager decided. Irving Boyd as a club official couldn't do nothing but agree to dropping out in view of the manager stating he couldn't field a team. As for our part of the "story as mentioned in paragraph five came from not one but several persons as a number, of .ball players told us they didn't 'know the team was dropping out. As for the finances (para. six) friend Don must have seen the financial statement last year and also noticed "that his OBA junior entry went considerably: in the. red. .. . Don's suggestion in the last paragraph to have a five-man executive is a fine one ... . but naming five and getting five to work is a problem in most communities. Nyt, 'Sed. BAILEY BRIDGES BLACKSTOCK GAP. ROSS McLEAN's youthful North Durham League squad changed . the popular old song "Won't You Come Home Bill Bailey™to "Won't 'You Stay Home Neil Bailey" after the lanky Cartwr ight flinger stopped the locals on three hits -here last Friday. It was a fine comeback for the righthander after being pummeélled in the opener. BILL GIBSON, speedy centre fielder and DON ASHBRIDGE are the . only locals to-hit in the first three games of the series._ Gibson has five hits in 11 tries for a .456 mark to lead DOUG HAYES who has a .428 average . . . BILL HARPER saw plenty of late season action by joining 'Whitby -Merchants in OBA playdowns. Southpaw William started one game on the mound and after a.bad first inning 'Whitby settled down to upset the powerful Bowmanville Rosés and. go on to win the Lakeshore finals, However, Oakville eliminated the W's over the week-end 6-5 and 7-2 as 11 games in 12 days proved ie too much . .. JOHNNY WALDINSPERGER, Port Perry's 18-year- old slugger, hones to catch on with Oshawa Transporters next year. The chunky centre fielder went out to 'one junior practice early this year and also attended a St. Louis Cards school and was asked back .fo rthe second day. . . RED MITCHELL, Lindsay- recreation director and former Chicago Black Hawk, would be glad to put on a hockey school here this winter.

In reply to Mr. Fitsell's topic "Foul Ball" which appeared in his column last week, I would like to explain my side of the story. At the start of the season 'it was felt, that to be a contender in the Tri-County league, we would nced_ad- ditional strength. Bob Gallagher and |; Lloyd Hamilton agreed to play with us, with the two-man executive of the Port Perry Ball Club fully agreeable. Tri-County rules state that all pros tests must be in the hands of the secretary 48 'hours after a game is played. No: protest of these players was 'made throughout the season, and Mr. Virtue, Mr. Boyd, and pyself felt that if "any squawk was made, the league could do no more than bar - Hamilton and Gallagher for the re- .. mainder of the season without affect- _ -ing our standing. proven when: the London Majors of Inter-County League were tossed .out of their play-offs for having an in- eligible player who had taken part in -- e-league wins, They took their WA » 8. to court on the grounds thaf'no protest had been received within 72 hours after each game played and are This point was their rules: : The first game of the play-offs was to be played in Port Perry. Due to three players working, two out of town, two disqualified, and one just not available we would have been.able to field a team of nine only. When the game was switched to Sutton (at Sutton's wish after agreeing to come here) we could only muster eight players. I phoned Irving Boyd say- ing that we might as well drop out under, the circumstances. He was quite "agreeable and made no objec- |: =: tions. I am of the opinion that most of the local story came from one person. Only one player was disgruntled and he took part in "wbout six games throughout the season. _As far as the club's financial ledger- is concerned, I wouldn't know any: thing about that because in the three years that I was manager, I don't re- call ever seeing a financial statement. I refer to our executive as a two- man affair. The Ball Club has the best possible man available for presi- dent and perhaps if a four or five man executive could be formed to go along with him, situations such as happened could be better overcome, non DON MARK.
