ONSERVATION ORNER --for Outdoor Sportsmen Toronto, March 12--(CP)--A re- solution asking that pickerel and northern pike be desiared game fish was passed Saturday at the annual conveation of the Northern Ontario Outfitters Association. The recommendation was among 25 to be laid before the Fish and Game Committee of the Ontario Legislature when it meets next week. The outfitters contended that since pickerel and nortnern pike are recognized as game fish by commercial fishermen and the fish and wildlife branch it should be legalized as such. Another resolution called for es- tablishment of a $1 resident ang- ling licence. Delegates expressed belief that an angling licence for residents 16 years and over would help make the general public more conservation-minded. Revenue de- rived from sale of such a licence, the resolution said, would provide for greater propagation of game fish and establishment of additional rearing ponds, The delegates, representing 1,400 licensed camp owners and outfit ters in north and northwestern On- tario, approved other resolutions calling for: 1, Opening of a controlled moose season in areas approved by the Department of Lands and Forests. One area which would be excluded would be the Kenora-Rainy River district south of the main line of the C.N.R., described as a congest- ed area. 2. Establishment by the depart- ment of fish hatcheries and musk- ellunge rearing ponds at Nestor Falls and Dryden in the Lake of The Woods district, an area which has been famous for muskellunge but whose waters have never been restocked. 3. Extension of the muskellunge season to Oct. 15 from Oct. 1. This resolution, from the northwestern Ontario camp owners, said: Few muskies taken between 'Oct. 1 and Oct. 15 would not be detrimental to the musky supply and offer an additional attraction for late sea- son fishing." George Bishop of Manitoulin Is- land was re-elected president and Arthur Grout of Chapleau was re- turned as treasurer. Ernie Calvert of Rainy River was named honorary president, while vice-presidents elected were Arthur Miller, Sleeman; Len Hughes, North Bay; Charles Kervin, Callander.

"I'm just going to keep on doing the same things I did last year," he says. "And hope they drop in for me. All you can do is give it what you've got." ' Success has built up the confi- dence of Big Walt, a six-foot-five- inch 230-pounder. Now he knows his previous failure "probably was all for the best." "Take my word for it," sald Mc- Carthy in the spring of '48, "this kid is going to make it some day." As cautious 'McCarthy seldom went on the record about any rookie, that was high praise, Indeed.

Main participants in this are usually a winning club, some harrassed speaker and a steaming plate of edibles. The former pay more atten- tion to the latter, but for the sake of their digestive tract probably should have listened to the middle man. One of the first "games" of the league will take place this Wenesday evening when the Oshawa Red Raiders close in on the Blue Plate Special to do honor to their coach of last season, and they hope for the coming one, one Mons. Robert Cosgrove. The second battle of the beef joint is a postponed tussle in- volving the Transporter Junior baseball team. This was origin- ally planned for March 19, but has beén pushed ahead to April 2 through the inability of the high brass to make reserva- tions. About that Red Raider do «+ + + if Bob Cosgrove decides to come back with the club this year, amd all the signs point that way, hell be pushing spring training. And 'with the warmer weath- er talking in the weatherman's ear right now, that means the heavyweights of the grid sport fraternity will soon be out on ' the greensward wearing off their winter weight. At the Arena last night we saw two former Oshawa Gener- als in action with two good Senior "A" teams, - The clubs concerned were the Stouffville Clippers and the Markham Millionaires, The lat- ter lead in their best-of-seven league finals by a 3-1 count after winning here in Oshawa last night by a 3-2 score. The players you may recog- nize on the clubs are "Moe" Galand with the Moneymen and George Sayliss with the Clippers, "Moe" is of course more familiarly known for his pitching prowess with the To- ronto Peter Pan baseball club. Sayliss managed to score the first goal of the game, a pretty one, but still saw his club go down to defeat. The way things stand right now, his team must give their all from now on in or bow from the pic- ture completely, Speaking of bowing, please notice that the Gens made the Spits bow last night . , . 4-2. And that Lou got loose and potted two tallies for wus'n. Guess the tension of the scor- ing race was finally lifted for the guy. He must feel a lot bet- ter now, Vv CHECKLETS -- The Oshawa Table Tennis Club, which holds weekly meetings at the C.R.A. building on Gibbs Street Mon- day nights, are having an im- portant general meeting this coming Mareh 19th at 7.00 p.m. It will take place before the regular games and should be attended by all current mem- bers of the club and any inter- ested newcomers. McMaster University lost out to Toronto Tri-Bells in the Southern Ontario finals of the O.B.A. and according to some it was a black-eye to basket- ball. To our way of thinking it was more a black-eye to the chumps who tried to stage a game of that drawing capacity in the box-like Ryerson Insti- tute gym. Why not engage Mutual Arena if you are going to draw 1,000 or more specta- tors? The fight that resulted in the main from the over- crowded conditions would never have been if the wide walls of Mutual had been used. Toronto Baseball Leafs are going to open their home sea- son on April 25th at the Fleet Street Flats. If the battle be- tween the Leafs and the Ro- chester Red® Wings should be postponed that day on account of foul weather it will be play- ed the following day. The cur- rent infield of the Leafs looks like this, Fleming at first, Rahwn at second, Sullivan at short and Ostrowski at third. Strength through second and short is said to make a ball club . . . along with good pitch= ing and hitting. Just how good Rawhn and Sullivan will be will mean a lot to the whole club. + + » By Bob Rife Aylesbury, England--(CP), -- It took repairmen two hours to find what caused a break-down in power service in this Buckinghamshire town. A rat had found its way into the switch gear of the generating station, Dropo was named McCarthy's regular first . baseman, but his short-comings were evident. Hoping for Walt to find his stride, Mec- Carthy opened the season with him on first. After 11 games Dropo was hitting only .146. "Go down and have that good year," advised McCarthy. Walt went to Sacramento where he hit 287 and broke a leg. / The low spot of Dropo's career came in January of 1950. General Manager Joe Cronin told him he wouldn't even get his second chance with the Red Sox. He was sent to Louisville, Secretly the Red Sox hoped he would force his early recall by a sensational batting surge. He didn't. Walt was hitting only 256 in 11 games at Louisville. Then Boston's Billy Goodman was injured. That was his big break. . on a texgific hitting spree, A triple, home run and single big fellow was voted starting first- basethan, At the end of the season Dropo's average was .326. He led the league with 326 total bases and tiled with Vern Stephens for the runs batted in lead with 144. ZARILLA UNDISTURBED Pasadena, Calif.,, March 17--(AP) --It may seem odd, but Al Zarilla is not the least disturbed about be- ing traded from the pennant-hop- ing Boston Red Sox to the second- division Chicago White Sox. Zarilla, in fact, is pleased--and that's no reflection on the Red Sox. "It may sound silly," said Zeke, as he is called, "but I liked the trade for the simple reason that I believe ' I can help the White So more than I could help the Red Sox." That came from a speedy, ambi- tious outfielder who belted .325 in 130 games to rank fifth in the Am- erican League last year and drove in 74 runs. "Let's look at it this way," Zare illa continued as Pilot Paul Rich- ards kept the rest of the White Sox busy in hitting practice. "I had a good year with Boston, hitting .325. But there was a guy named Billy Goodman who hit .354, and another man named Dom DiMaggio who hit .328. , "Walt Dropo and Vern Stephens topped the majors in runs batted in with 144 apiece, and Dropo hit 34 homeruns and Stephens connected for 30, "Add to that array the name of Ted Williams and feel almost like a stranger to your home-town fans, "Don't get me wrong. I have no complaints against the Red Sox fans or the management. They were wonderful to me, But you just feel you can he more important in a team sense with a club like Chica- 0." The White Sox, it may be added, are entirely satisfied with the deal that brought Zeke to them. Riche ards repeatedly has said he believes Zarilla's speed and hitting will prove a big help.
