some char acter conceived the idea of arti ficial ice that sports writers had minor ball front docs look like a big and success ful season coming up on the a rest Now that slack season is gone forever Before the ho ckey season ends district base- bailers and are sending up smoke signals indi cating a new diamond season iz upon us Ken League reports that league gov ernors convene tonight at Sha ron chimes Already the re port is that therell be the usual hot discussion on the five mile radius rule This hard and rule always stirs up plenty of controversy A couple of teams tis said may have to drop out unless theyre given a little Ice- way to reach beyond the five mile limit It might be well if youll par don us making the observation for the delegates to remember that you cant have a league without learns The main idea of the loop is to give ball play ers of the area a chance to play ball Suppose a player is just a rod over the five mile radius it wont hurt to let him in in or der to keep the team in the league We hope too that this year the governors will give some thought with regard to Willow Beach Last year McNeill and company werent allowed to compete for the Stan Cook mug because they used two or three players from Point It might well be remem bered that the have contributed funds to the league since The area from which they can draw players is limited and without the use of Jack sons Point players they cant carry on Nearer home Legion ambassadors Mickey Smith Del Sid and Fred Oilman are bubbling over with nop and energy and just itching to get an invite to enter the township league Well men youre invited by league president John Young to attend the leagues annual organization meet May 1 You do the rest legion playing personnel wont change greatly if theyre admitted It could be that if the township entry de velops the outcome will be a town team open to all players and not restricted just to Legion members It appears theres a definite move afoot to reorganize the town it sou ml like an excellent idea It would give lot of fellows who might not otherwise play ball an op portunity to get a little exercise twice weekly It might be well to consider if the idea comes along satisfactorily to spread the games between the Stuart Scott diamond ami the fair grounds The league seemed to decline both in interest and fan support after all games were transferred to the fair grounds diamond This year it has been suggested rather than having an industrial league something might be de veloped on a ward or church league basis It could work out to four or six loams Jack Aurora ation director goes one better His suggestion of an intertown Lacrosse football tennis track and field notes are rolling in Matt Walsh Bob and Ed Adams forsee a big la crosse revival Theyre talking mite and town leagues and bantam for outoftown competition The lacrosse hope fuls have been granted permis sion to use the arena and the first practices will be held as soon as the ice is out MM The smiles you see those foot ball stalwarts Ken Nelson Am Nelson Jack Robinson Mike Speed Stan wearing are just because the footballers have been turning out in good num bers for the club practices of competition the past couple years has halted the local hoof ers from getting started This year theres a ready made league composed of Au and organized so the local hooters should get the competi tion they desire Tennis men Keith Davis and Charlie Lee are making noises like there is a tennis season com- up- This year local club of ficials are going all out to set record in the membership col umn Anyone for tennis You can get information on the club from Messrs Davis and Lee Well squelch an early season rumor right here Theres no truth so help me in the gossip that the Lake
