EVERYTHING FROM SOUP TO NUTS" They each have an axe or two to grind, but for the time being it looks as if the CAHA and QAHA are going to get along, as well as can be expected. The Canadian body accepted the Quebec "wanderers" back into the fold at Niagara Falls in their big meeting. So now the CAHA has the Quebec Association back under its banner--but it should be pointed out that they have only what's left of the Quebec group. The powerful Quebec senior hockey league has pulled out and turned pro- fessional and if the Quebec Citadels and Montreal Canadiens are still determined not to play in the same league together, then we can look for a split-up there--so what's left? Brant Auto Seats--name of a baseball club entered in the West Toronto League this summer--will play here at Alexandra Park TONIGHT! The exhibition game has been arranged for 6:45 o'clock and it will give Manager Mike Garbark another chance to try out his team, The Oshawa Merchants have filed their list with the 'Inter-County executive and for a start, the first 16 players listed in cludes pitchers Gord Roach, Ken Yount, Bill Dadson, John Walters and Don Zielinski with Mike Garbark and Arnold McCallum as catchers. Ed Kalski, Johnny Imbra, Chuck Aleno and Herman Mason with Fred Thompson as utility, rounds out the list of infielders and outfielders are "Butch" Lawing, Jimmie Jones, Bill Harper and Ted O'Connor. ,Ted Stone and Jack Durston will both be given a thor- ough trial and may be on the permanent roster before long--how- ever, Intermediate players can play five games without having to sign an I-C senior contract. The Merchants had an exhibition game last week and a practice tilt with the local Transporters on Sunday and tonight's game at Alexandra Park will likely be their last chance for a game until they open their league campaign on Friday. So far, we've heard a lot of what the Merchants have got in the way of talent and some of thelr name players certainly boast a prominent career but local ball fans are getting concerned as to whether or not the career is all ended in some cases. President John Harris confidently insists he has rounded out a powerful ball club that will readily finish in the top four of the Inter-County League. Ome thing is certain, we haven't long to wait before we'll all have a much better idea of how things stand. In the meantime, some of the local fans, and they too know their basebali, insist that the current line-up is not fast enough for the brand of competition they'll meet in the Inter-County loop. It will be interesting to see what the Merchants do tonight at Alexandra Park against the West Toronto league team. Down in Cobourg on Monday night, the Oshawa Transporters submitted their certificates and apparently the Lakeshore League teams breathed a little easier. Whitby and Bowmanville were wor- ried and seriously, about having Oshawa players avallable--which must be a joke to Port Hope and Cobourg teams at that--but now it appears the Transporters will stick chiefly to last year's team and other Transporter players of previous years. This could mean that a few local baseball stars will be looking for a place to perform and may end up with Whitby or Bowmanville. which in turn will have the Lakeshore League clubs more concerned about Whitby er Bowmanville than they are about the Transporters, 130 Hefty Pupils Enroll At Blue Bombers' School WINNIPEG (CP)--Genial George | smiling although he sald Trafton is up to his hips in football talent and up to his fedora brim in beef.

NOW R FISH SANCTUARY Oshawa Fish - Game Assn. Issues Warning To Anglers Of interest to all trout fishermen is a recent development which has taken place on Wilmot Creek at Orono. With the recent appearance of the Stream Improvement Pro- ram carried on by the Oshawa ish and Game Protective Asso- ciation in this paper some trout fishermen are carried away by their enthusiasm and are fishing this stream -- with dire results. the While fishing in allowed in por- tions of the stream by permission only, some are, foolishly going through the section where the local Association is carrying on their improvement work. In doing so they are breaking a very serious fishing regulation. The entire concessional boun- daries of this secticn is now a Fish Sanctuary. In accordance with the regula- tions governing fish and .fishig, no person may trespass, fish for or attempt to fish for any fish, damage or attempt to damage any obstacle in or out of the stream, remove, deface or damage any plantings, or have fishing tackle or any part thereof in pos- session on the sanctuary, This section is more than ade- quately posted with large yellow triangular metal signs, as well as signs along the stream itself. there | is no reason for anyone to pos- sibly miss seeing them, yet since opening of trout season on May 1st, nine rehensions have been recorded, o for illegal entry in- to the sanctuary and nine for over limit of trout. This is a poor start for the new season. Penalties are very 'severe for any infractions of the sanctuary regulations. Art Toms, 48 West- view Avenue, Toronto, will likely learn that it is cheaper to buy fish than to catch them -- in a sanctuary. Minimum and maxi- mum penalties are ten dollars to one thousand dollars. For better fishing and better pub- lic relations, fishermen should keep out of the sanctuary. Canada Outdoors Life Is Stressed In Manitoba By AL VICKERY Canadian Press Staff Writer WINNIPEG (CP)--Mother Na- ture has been kind to Manitoba and to its fishermen. Glacial activity has given the province a large number of lakes and streams, the combined area of which is 26,789 square miles or 12.1 per cent of the total provincial land and water area. Commercial fishermen and sportsmen reap a rich harvest each year. Fisheries yield annually an average of more than 32,000,000 pounds of all species. Manitoba's reputation as a fisher- man's paradise is growing year by year. The world's largest lake trout, a 63-pounder, was hooked in the Flin Flon-Cranberry Portage area of northern Manitoba a few years ago. SEASON UNDER WAY Lured by the promise of lake trout, brook or speckled trout, rain- bw trout, brown trout and white- fish, anglers on April 15 headed for their favorite fishing waters test their skill and luck. For the fisherman who wants to slip away for & few days outdoors, there are scores of fish-filled lakes and rivers in the Whiteshell forest reserve in eastern Manitoba. For the sportsman seeking virgin waters and rugged setting, the land north of the 53rd parallel is recom- mended. This is the land of the succulent Arctic yling, the Arc- tic charr and the assortment of trouts Sturgeon fishing in northern Man- itoba waters is promised from June 22 to Aug. 8 after a closed season of 10 years. Resources offi- Mill Refuse Must Be Kept From Waters TORONTO -- The provisions of The Lake ment Act s and Rivers relating to the of mill refuse in the waters of On- tario are extended and en- ed by amendments passed at the last session of the Ontario Legile- lative Assembly. Pollution of On- [196% tario's lakes and streams has had dire and widespread results in not only contaminating waters for hu- man use but also reacting disas- trously on the fish resources. It i now an offence, the Hon. Welland 8. Gemmell, Lands and Forests Minister, pointed out to- day, "to throw, deposit or discharge any refuse from any type of mill into a lake, river or any other waters in Ontario, or on their shores or banks. The penalty is increased to a minimum of $200 and the owner or occupier of any |' mill can be ordered to remove the refuse from the lake or river or The offender also is liable to a penalty of $50 for each day that he refuses to comply with such an order, issued by an officer on authority of the Minister.

The closed season was enforced when sturgeon became nearly ex- tinct in 1920. After allowing the sturgeon to increase, the season dropped again and a closed season was re-opened in 1937. Numbers was announced again In 1943. Its re-opening this year will be on an experimental basis. SKIERS HOPEFUL The snow is off the ground in Manitoba, but skiers still are talking about the major ski area being surveyed in Riding National Mountain Park. Latest reports indicate the pro- posed development for 1954 could provide overnight accommodation for 150 persons at the site of the ski hills, about 165 miles north of Winnipeg by road. A Winnipeg promoter is pre- to put in facilities costing more than $50,000 providing the necessary agreements can be made the Dominion government, Hills and slopes that would be developed are located close to the eastern boundary of the park. Construction of a road about four miles long within the park boun- dary, plus grading of a one-mile section of existing road allowance outside, would be necessary to make the area accessible. Proposed facilities at the site would include ski-dormitory accom- modation for 150 bination restau hall, parking lot, T-bar ski tow, and two rope ski tows. One possible run has a vertical drop of 600 feet, almost three times the vertical height of any existing ski hills in the province.

There was a flurry of shifting Tuesday as team managers ap- |prcached the deadline, and some |said they would wait until after | today's games before making final | decisions. The voluntary retirement of Dom | DiMaggio, Boston Red Sox out- |fielder and last of the three Di- | Maggio brothers to play in the big leagues, helped manager Lou Bou- dreau make up his mind. The Red Sox sent southpaw re- lief hurler Bill Werle to the Boston farm at Louisville on option. Two | more must be trimmed by tonight. John Schmitz, 32-year-old New York Yankee lefthander, was sent to Washington Senators for the $10,000 waiver price. The Senators, in turn, sold air cher Sandalio Consuegra to i- cago White Sox a few hours after the Pale Hose had obtained out- fielder Allie Clark from Philadel- phia Athletics. Chicago and the Athletics must trim away two players, the Sen- ators one, the Yankees three, St. Louis Browns two. Cleveland and Detroit are all set. Four teams in the National League are within the limit, but Brooklyn Dodgers, Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals each must drop one player. Pittsburgh Pir- ates must cut away three players. SPORTS ROUNDUP By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK (AP)--After think- ing it over, we find ourselves still in the embarrassing position of not being able to take a firm stand one way or the other over the Scrapping of the two-platoon sys- m. We sympathize with the coaches and wouldn't blame them if they went on a mass hunger strike. We congratulate the courageous college officials who performed the deed. We feel that a lot of boys are going to have more fun playing the game both ways than they did in special- izing, once they catch on. In the last few season, since two platooning became almost total, we have heard a great many more persons ridicule it and say it had spoiled the game for them than we ever heard say they liked it, Tad Jones, the old Yale immortal, told us last spring he has lost all in- terest in the game. Personally, we were rather to like the idea. It seemed to us that the offensive team, coming in fresh, struck a little harder and swifter than it used to when ball carriers had to tackle, too. But this must have been imagi- nation, for some coach said the other day that, actually, his players got cold and stiff sitting on the bench and were not much good for quite a time after they went in. The change will not be as drastic as many fans seem to think. The coaches with the big material will find & way to bring their guns to ar. It is to be doubted that the change will affect attendance at college games next fall by as much as a single customer. And the pros are not unhappy that the colleges will go back to breeding big, powerful blokes who can do everything well and take a pounding. As coach Steve Owen of the New York Giants put it, now He'll be able to tell whether a player is really good or is just a specialist.
