baseball centre has enjoyed in ome time it would appear from he performances witnessed this eason that stouffville is approach ng ever closer to the time when it least a seasonal sports director r professional ball coach must leeds be engaged if the standard of jail is to be kept up to a point vorthy of fan support this view s not taken in any way as a criticism of those men who have iven of their time and effort to nandle this years teams they did good job with the support they received from those they were try ing to help but the opinion of many seems to be that an outside chief might get more results maybe so but on the other hand say others if the boys are not interested enough to give their best effort for local coaches its their own lookout and so the story goes rumours are afoot that bob snowball may consider entering the junior hockey ring in stouff- villcs cause again no comment from sir snowball stouffville novcr came so close to winning an ontario junior championship than the year bob handled the club a few seasons back should he try again that dream might be ful filled thered certainly be no lack of fan support ing the first game he pulled some tissues in his side which proved painful red mitchell exchicago black hawk and last year arena and hockey manager for aurora is said to be seeking employment else where for this winter season some stoufrville hockey interests have been glancing his way and tis said what with a new artificial ice arena here hes interested chances are a junior b team for stouffville might be the outcome should mitchell land here the idea seems to be to leave the senior hockey field open to markham million aires executive members of this club are interested in getting their team on stouffvilles new ice sur face with stouffville sticking strictly to junior hockey such an arrangement woulci certainly bene fit the teams involved the new arena here and the fans the teams would stand to cut a bigger slice of gate receipts owing to the increased accommodation available in the new arena and the larger crowds expected certainly local fans and the press would fully support any markham senior club which should choose to make stouffville arena limited their headquarters while theres noth ing definite on such an arrange ment the matter has been discuss ed by some directors of the new arena here and executive members of the markham hockey club therell bo water sports air- shows contests and displays brilliantly staged and presented therell bo exhibits by the hundred thousand music dancing a milelong midway gala and carnival dont miss a thing at this years cne come often col k r monholt pmt etwood a hwqh gmrol mamogmf ax26foprfo canadian national exhibition girls drop from race when edged by elgin mills after losing 1210 at home stouffville girls moved to elgin mills for a return engagement last thursday the yonge street girls got off to a good start with six runs in the first two innings while stoufrville countered with only three from then on the local girls tried hard but when the runs were counted they found themselves on the short end of a 9s score both helen snowball and gertie drew- ery hit well for the locals with gertie getting one double two singles and a walk in four times at bat helen had two doubles one single and a walk in five times at bat myrtle staley had a triple and two singles to her credit although they lost the girls did their best and this much can be said they didnt go down without a fight with the score so close a few breaks either way could have changed the picture lillian red- shaw has a real pitching arm and we hope she will be around next year when the bats begin to swing isobelle mashinter did a fine hurl ing job for elgin mills and although lacking somewhat the speed acquired by lillian she had good control all the way it was surprising to hear that aurora also dropped its game to victoria square on the same night to prove that the strongest teams during the year are not always such at playoff time the line up was as follows catcher gertie drewery pitcher lillian redshaw 1st myrtle staley 2nd marg brignall short blanche paxton 3rd audrey jennings left field erla holden centre kay ford right helen snowball subs joan haines marg barry markham kayoed bybowmanville markham midgets have fallen by the way in the first round of oba competition bowmanville after defeating them 110 on foreign ground brought joy to their home fans with a 71 trouncing at home both blake and petch showed tip well for the local lads with a triple and double respectively but it was no match for the power of the eastern lads hickory doug james deserves much credit for taking an interest in the boys especially when no outside financial help was forthcoming we only hope that he will continue to keep hardball interest alive in markham park improvement night at agincourt was a success and a large crowd gathered at north memorial park and witnessed two fairly good games the natty clothed good looking claremont ladies were the guests of the maplewoods and they had archi balds sluggers pretty well tamed down for the biggest part of the game but marion fox the lansing twirler lightened up near the last of the game to bold the northeners in check isobel rogerson the apple queens star hitter smacked out a drive that just grazed the fingers of the centre fielder and which put the game in the bag for the maplewoods lillian redshaw pitched exceedingly well for claremont and put out a number of the maplewood big hitters via the strikeout route the score was 10 to 8 for maplewoods after the game the spokesman over the loud peakcr called for a hand for the claremont girls and the big crowd gave them a good lusty cheer which they deserved for their determination and integrity they are a swell bunch of girls and good players their manner of play was highly appreciated intermediates out of oba playdowns last week spelled doom for our intermediates as thev dropped out of rhe o ba race to little britain by one sided scores of i3 and 150 in the first game miller went to the mound for stouffville with schell behind the plate a couple of erre- by watson and bagg in the third innings let in 2 runs and gave the visitors a 41 lead in the fourth innings they added two more to sew up the game stouff ville showed a little action in the fifth with a double by raxlin a single for procenko and a sacri fice by laushway bringing in three runs in the 8th and 9th innings stouffville had men on bases but the hitters failed in the pinch on friday night the boys jour neyed to little britain and were humbled by a score of 150 except for a very few good plays it was an all round bad night manager murray holden tried every means possible to break the goose egg but to no avail baggs started on the mound but miller although not fit replaced him in the fourth play got worse instead of better hassard took his turn with the horsehide but with no better success little britain played heads up ball and executed two fast double plays stu hicks lined a long 390 foot homer over the fence for the top batting perform ance of the game buttonville wins championship theyve done it again yes buttonville has taken the softball championship once more after losing the first game they surged back like a steam roller playing the ball of former years it was do or die for unionville in the fourth game of the series and we must give the 6th concession lads credit for their determination at the end of six innings it looked like union- villes game as they were leading by one run but in the top of the seventh mac clement stepped to the plate and pounded one into the daisies for a home run no sooner had clement crossed the plate when jack rumney lined a three bagger to score soon after and sew things up for buttonville union- ville was held scoreless during the last battings stunden was on the mound for buttonville while cox did the hurling for the losers chuck blundell was best for the home towners with two well placed hits and spectacular catch- ing on second base both dock and minton stole home for unionville the latter breaking the tie in the 6th buttonville rallied in the 7th with two runs it was a great finish to a good series and as the bats gloves and balls are stored away for another year all we can say is congratulations buttonville with a championship well earned lake levels going down heavy rains only hope now that the election is over it isnt likely that anyone will be anxious to take credit for water levels especially since they are going clown not up observes the lindsay post avater enthusiasts on sturgeon and cameron lakes are not all happy about the pros pects for the remaining weeks of summer because there is a chance that the water may get down so low that it will be impossible to get power boats out of their boat houses the fact of the matter is that even now it is necessary at points to travel some distance from the shore before it is safe to start the motor this low water level business is also of concern to those using manpowered craft too be cause it isnt much fun shifting boat rollers every day or so to make it convenient to launch these lightercraft some idea of how low the water is in sturgeon lake may be gained when it is stated that shoreline stumps and logs ordinarily well under water are now protruding or at best just sufficiently covered to make them a hazard residents in the sturgeon- cameron lake area agree that it will take a terriffic amount
