were pitted against a strengthened sunderland squad but they came through with flying colors how serious these young men take their baseball was plainly illustrated here on monday when coach bob hassard travelled close to 3 miles from his niagara falls training camp to take part in the fifth and final game this is just one example of the club eagerness to win the red sox are indeed worthy champions sports unlimited go west young man go west the true meaning of this overworked phrase was realized by your reporter last week when i was privileged to attend along with some 500 newspapermen the cwna convention in vancouver british columbia i do not intend to give you a mile by mile description of my trip to the coat but i should like to point out some of the interesting sporting highlights encountered during my more than 6000milo journey the west is truly a sportsmans paradise during the fall season of the year the hundreds of ponds and lakes which spot the prairie countryside are literally alive with fish thousands of wild ducks glide quietly through the glasslike surface and even the thunderous roar of a dlesel locomotive fails to stir them from their overnight resting place camerahappy newsmen took pictures of the ducks as they milled about on the ponds th folks back home will never believe this they said as the shutters clicked incessantly heavy spring rains have produced miniature lakes in the backyard of almost every prairie home here fowl of all kinds make them stopover points before proceeding on their southward flight in jasper park alberta all wild game is protected by strict government supervision bears deer and mountain goats are a familiar sight in this rocky mountain garden of eden during the last few years much progress has been made in the west with the erection of artificial ice arenas previously the children found their recreation on frozen ponds and streams in spite of the lack of artificial ice the west nag produced more hockey talent than any otnr section of north america x british columbia is presently in the grip of football fevor with the erection of their new 30000 capacity empire stadium and the maiatss of the j appointed group of varsi i bc lioas are ao battling in a esot to be represented is the j football 3nal tnir efforts are receiving outstanding support jon the weekend that i arrived at vancouver a record 32000 j fans thronged the huge structure to witness a scheduled game i between winnipeg and the home town lions on street corners j ia etores and restaurants everyone talks football baseball is a forgottsn subject and even the torrid american league pennant race is pushed onto the third page of the newspapers sports section the torontorochester series was allowed about two inches of space in vancouver there isnt such a word as good bye its see you at the grey cup game vancouver has excellent recreation facilities parks swim ming pools and golf courses are available both in the city and inth outlying districts british columbia can rightly boast about its fine fish over on vancouver iarti it is a beautiful sight to see hundreds of white fishing boats dotting the river it is not uncommon to land a 70 pound salmon but these fish are not easily handled and often it takes more than an hour to haul them into the boat one of the newpaper delegates had the thrill of catching a 40 pound salmon and in order to prove his good fortune the fish was brought into the dining ball room for all to see and admire although seals are protected by government law in the far north hunters are allowed to kill them in the waters around vancouver island these seais kill thousands of salmon every year and an open season has been declared on them yearround in the dark bc forests a hunter is likely to encounter anything from a tree 6qulrrel to a grizzly bear many residents can relate some hairraising tales of their experiences during huntins ex cursions in the western woodlands all in ap the west is a wonderful place an initial visit only tends to mak one more determined to return only the next time to take along a fishing pole golf clubs tennis raquet bathing suit shotgun canoe and a larger suitcase a too much delay every summer teams that enter the ontario playoffs put a crimp in the completion of their regular group schedule no matter how the local groups try to cut their schedules short the oasa games break up all previous plans in the markham twp softball league the semifinals were completed more than a month ago and yet the two winners agincourt and markham have yet to play more than one game this is not a good thing for the league or fan interest supporters follow their favorite team all through the schedule only to see the group suddenly come tel a halt when the ontario playoffs commence if these group toal games are completed if ever they tvtll be played when the weather is too cold to attract much fan enthusiasm there will have to be some concrete ruling with regard to teams which are inslstant on playing both in the local group and then ia ontario competition the same story is true in the markham twp girls league agincourt entered their team in ontario competition and their playoff semifinal games with stouftville have suddenly come to a halt agincourt is reported to have been eliminated but to date the two clubs have played only one game in the last six weeks this is ridiculous a team should decide which is the most important if they believe they are strong enough to make a showins in the ontario finals then they should drop out of the group playoffs and let a local winner be decided this practice has been allowed to go so far that very soon the group finals will be played on snowshoes newmarket football ers here sat night
