A pleasant subject to get cracking on this week would be best pitchers in this area over the years would have to install Alex Big Boy Web ster near the summit Webster made his local debut in the Church League in the early thirties with Trinity United Webster threw two onehitters for a starter Hub hitters hadnt seen the like of Web ster They just couldnt get the bat around in time Ken Guilfoyle Roxy Aces Blake Con stable Churchill Bill Langataff Zip Attwel Bill VanZant and Bill Joint McComb Newmarket Norm Aurora Bob Ellis Ted Bennett Richmond Hill Ken Alli son Schomberg were other allstar of the 3040 era There was one we didnt mention This was Norm Stunden In our books Stunden was the best southpaw server in this district- As well Norm served in many capacities to boost in the North York area Ray was another of renown wasnt around long but while hurl ing for Casey Cripps established himself as the best right hand pitcher Weve seen Judd pitch five innings without throwing one ball Lake Simcoe League sides in days of yore got big league chucking from Ken Red Mitchell Mount Albert Ron Kester Zephyr and Haley Queensville Other top flight pitchers were Cook Pine Orchard Duncan McNeill Peter Goodfellow Keswick Bill Henry Red Pollock and Harold Smith Tops in todays crop of are Dale and Richard Lunney Barry Timbers a port- aider is the leading contender for stardom in the upcoming exchanges Mike Lavender Fred Green and Jackson are a trio of pitching stars in the making Lavender hails from Vandorf Green from Aurora Jackson from the Heights I HI I V aaaam I aw AB I TORONTO Indianapolis Coyole the same car Ihat to make across the finish it I LACK OPPORTUNITY Newmarket has yet to produce a flinging great since the days of Zip Attwell and Joint McComb This in the main is due to the fact players dont get into the small diamond sport until theyve grad uated from bantam hardball ranks Its a very foolish system If Newmarket is to produce top notch pitching talent the present outdated system will have to be changed They start out in baseball There is no hardball after bantam If they wish to continue in ball they have to switch to You can convert an or outfielder to However it takes years to develop a pitcher and considerable time to pro duce a good catcher Until we start leagues for the small fry atom tykes bantams Newmarket wont be coming up with any great pitchers Now the town league has folded conditions are even worse There is just no place for players to get into the pitching whirl Dan the best of the junior crop at the moment got his start in at Lake Wilcox East Gwillimbury is pro ducing some fine pitchers That is because the players are getting an opportunity to play in atom tyke and house leagues as well as with town ship allstar teams are the hitters making a come back We thought perhaps they were a vanishing race The has been giving the bat wielders some help of late Theyve shoved the pitchers pan back three feet The pitchers in most instances were piling up big strikeout tolls from the 40 foot mark The dont seem to piling up the moun tainous strike out counts this year Possibly its of the weather Hurlers like it hot There does seem to be more baserunners of late and that is what the fans like They dont want to see some freewheeling and his catcher having a game of catch Will it be necessary in future years for ball officials to budget for paid coaches That is one of big problems of ball today Everybody seems to be so busy with the cottage and other summer activities they have no time to take on coaching chores LARGEST IN YORK However Len Russell and Bill Ellis report the coach quota in the East Gwillimbury League is filled This is good news The league is the largest in York North with more than registered We get the same story from many communities around the county Sorry we cant field a team We cant find anyone to coach them We wonder what hap pens to the kids when this happen Surely one or
