NO CURTAINS IN THE LOCKER ROOMS The general manager has the run of most baseball stad- iums but this one studiously avoids the teams' dressing rooms. She's Mrs. Enid Uos- griff, only female general manager in professional base- ball. Mrs, Cosgriff became president of the Salt Lake Bees, Pacific Coast League, in 1961 after death of her first husband, Walter E. Cos- griff, in an auto accident. She took on added job of general manager last Fall shcrtly be- fore marrying Dr. Michael Murpliy, Salt Lake physician.

Fish Swapping Trial To Be Tested Again PRINCE ALBERT, Sask. (OP) -- An experiment in ex- changing game and gourmet fish between the French Aips and Saskatchewan looks like being half a success on the first 'try, but encouraging enough to prompt another. Fifty thousand embryonic Sas- katchewan lake trout shipped to Thonon on the French shore of Lake Geneva are reported to be faring weli there as fingerlings. But an equal number of eggs of the Alpine version of arctic char sent here from Thonon in February were devastated by rust in hatchery water and only 5,000 survived. , The intention of the Saskat- chewan resources department SOUTH AFRICAN HOPES _TO IMPROVE WEATHER _ LONDON' (AP)Mov, 'African witch doctors.

Reg. White, the 1963 "MVP" of the City and District softball circuit, pitched the win in the opening game of the season last nighi, allowing the Bad Boys just five hits with catcher Joe Melnick getting two for Bad Boys while Wilson, Berwick and Brabin shared the other three. White accounted for ten of the putouts via the strikeout route and in short, was in control of the game, almost all the way. Bad Boys got their two runs in the seventh frame when Joe Melnick opened with a hit and "Rich" March was safe on an passed ball and Cheesman's sacrifice fly to centre scored March with their second and final run. Warren Wills started "ion the mound for Bad Boys and stayed around until the 7th frame, when Ted Jones took over the mound duties. Joe Piontek singled in the A & W Win First Over 'Bad Boys Carnwith and Dave Weldon had back-to-back error that let Melnick score. Aj, vanced on a passed ball, then Ron Simcoe was safe on the eatcher's error and an infield out scored Piontek. In the third frame, Ralph O'Reilly was safe on an -error, moved along on a wild pitch and an infield out and scored on Reg Hickey's single, to make it 2-0. we dates, "away" games, for the Brooklin (Senior) Lacrosse Club, HOME Brooklin's Senior OLA Schedule Following are the 1964 sched- for "home" and Sat.

The speed, skill and art of this sport attracted him and he was annoyed that Cana- dian-built cars with Canadian drivers were no making it in- ternationally.

The Latin name of the arctic char is Salvelinus alpinus ard of the lake trout Cristivomer or Salvelinus namaycush. The arctic char, though usu- ally associated with the north- ern waters of Canada, Europe and Asia as an arctic ocean fish which migrates to spawn in rivers, is also found in a more colorful version in fresh water far south of the Arctic. Colonies of arctic char were isolated during the retreat of the prehistoric glaciers in lakes of Canada and Scandinavia, the Lake District of England and as far south as the Alps, The freshwater arctic char devel- oped bright coloring -- bluish green on top, pink to scarlet underneath, sometimes with orange spots on the sides-- compared to its larger, silvery cousin which still migrates be- tween salt and fresh water. The various trouts, believed to be another development of the original char, also include colorful characters like the speckled. But the lake trout, a native of North America, is a less spectacular greyish blend, Both the Alpine char and the Saskatchewan lake trout are sporty and tasty enough to ex- cite sportsmen and gourmets on both sides of the Atlantic. Hence the Thonon-Prince Albert trade. Paul Laurent, director of the Thonon fish research station, reports the Saskatchewan fish planted in Alpine lakes will be given another year to establish themselves before it is known for certain how well they adapt. Under Saskatchewan conditions they would mature to between 15 and 20 pounds. The Alpine char are smaller fish, but Edwards hopes they will develop to about four or |five pounds if they take to local water. ' Remember When? ... By THE CANADIAN PRESS One of Canada's most promising scullers, Hilton Belyea of Saint John, N.B., set out for England 39 years ago today to compete in the Diamond Sculls competi- tion, He lost the race, but sailed the next year for an- other crack at the title. On the way to England, he be- came ijl and subsequently retired from active compe- tition. IGHTHAM, England (CP) -- The drama of the steeplechase and the flavor of the old-time country fair can be savored in combination at the springtime point-to-point races in England. You can have practically any- thing in the way of an exciting rural' Saturday--even, perhaps, a small profit--at these affairs organized by the fox - hunting fraternity. They are amateur annuals in which fox-hunting clubs seek to raise funds while at the same time giving entertainment and competition to the farmers whose fields regularly come un- der the horses' hooves during the hunts. "Amateur" didn't seem an appropriate word for the West Kent Hunt point-to-point, held on a 314-mile course at nearby Yaldham Manor, the track in- cluding jumps over fences and ditches requiring skill and cour- age. In one open race, only three of. nine runners were left stand- ing five fences from home and the contest over soggy ground was a real test for man--or woman, since there was one ladies' race--and beast. The advantage for the spec- tators at this family-type affair is that they are not confined to certain areas as at the profes- sional races. Instead they can wander to any part of the course the more dramatic jumps. Kiddies, , par- ticularly, revel at the nose- snorting nearness of the nags as they churn over the turf and obstacles. And the sight of a Point-To-Point Races at close range is surely some- thing that a child is not likely to fonget, Meetings come under National Hunt regulations and the horses generally are "five years and upwards," often far upward, The. horses must have been used. in hunts in the current), season and the jockeys are amateurs--huntsmen or farm- ers. The weight carried is usually a hefty 175 pounds and first prize the equivalent of $90. The interest is great. The West Kent race, for instance, attracted 10,000 folk, many making a family day of picnick- ing on the grounds or partaking from the refreshment ' tents. Kiddies and dogs of all ages and sizes bounded about. The well-to-do huntsmen en- tertained at their station-wagon- type automobiles -- with re freshments--~wwhen they weren't betting at the tote or with the bookmakers, where a roaring trade was done for the six races with a £1 limit for 'win' only/s} at the tote. dale Flyaway, and Can't Deny It epier" - Dollar, Findley gaia 8-Kingston, Mcintyre 3-Invasion, Walker Start good, won driving 3.90 0 0 Also Ran in Order: Stormy Lee C, M: Twist, Bucky Song, and Reta Haw Les.
