The boys have to rise rather early every Sunday this season as the league is operating in Bowmanville with the first game starting at 9.00 a.m. Before the season is too far ad- vanced, a lot of credit should be given to the sponsors who are helping the teams out while they are on strike. The Union should be mentioned also, because with- out them looking after the refer. ees, the league would not be able to operate. As to the scoring statistics, these have not been released as yet but will be in the near future. The executive for this season are as follows ---Elwood Bradley, president; Lloyd Clarke, vice president; JJack Shearer, secre: tary; Bob Malley, treasurer. Any- one that might be interested in playing or being a time-keeper, etc., please contact one of the executive. 4 Team st Ai vs. Oshawa Firefighters, (9.00 o'clock); CKLB vs. Bolahoods Sportshaven (10 o'clock) and Jay- cee Whites vs. Mundinger Accor- Blacks Men's Wear Scugog Cleaners Kirby's TV Dunn's Tailors Protest That Pelee Island Shoot Dominated By Wealthy U.S. Hunters ORILLIA -- Charges of discrim- ination against Canadian sports- men during the pheasant hunt- ing season on Pelee Island were laid yesterday at the annual meet- ing here of Zone 5 of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters Inc, It was claimed that Pelee, a regulated township, set exorbitant hunting licence fees and in other ways attempted to eliminate the Canadian hunter in favor of the wealthy American sportsman. A resolution adopted by the Fed- eration for forwarding to the On- tario Provincial Government reads as follows: "It is moved that the Provin- cial Government be requested to launch a full-scale investigation in- to the discrimination by the Pelee Island Council in the matter of the issuing of Pelee Island Township Licences for the hunting of phea sants and that the Provincial De- partment of Lands and Forests be empowered limit the number of Irish-Born Jockey Rides Panaslipper LAUREL, Md.

Tommy Gosling had been listed as jockey for Panaslipper, the Irish Derby winner and one of nine horses entered in the International. Panaslipper is owned by the Irish government and will run in the colors of its president, Sean T. O'Kelly. Gosling was born in Scotland. The people of Ireland complained to President O'Kelly they wanted their horse ridden by a son of the Ould Sod. The word was passed] to trainer Paddy Prendergast. He replaced Gosling with T. M.

MINOR BASKETBALL, as operated at Simcoe Hall on Saturday mornings last winter, has taken a firm grip among the youngsters of this city and the news in today's paper that the league will again operate, has no doubt been greeted with loud huzzahs. Basketball has caught the fancy of the local young sports-bloods in recent years and the minor league at Simcoe Hall gives all the budding young stars a chance to fulfill their ambitions. The baseball fans are all agog today. Cleveland Indians, in what looks like a desperate bid to bolster their infield, have trad- ed Larry Doby to Chicago White Sox in exchange for shortstop Chico Carrasquel, a brilliant but th mperamental performer and Jim Busby, a centre-fielder who can catch flies with the best but can not hit as well as Doby. This could alse be a move by the Chisox to get a tried Negro star on their roster, for box office purposes but on the face of it, it looks as if Indians haven't really gained too much. |14-Year-0ld Schoolboy into the "The interest on the east coast is encouraging," Fitton said Tues- Dies In Football Huddle MIDWEST CITY, Okla. (AP)--A| heart attack is believed to have caused the death of a 14-year-old junior high school football player during a game here Tuesday night. Monroe Garland, a 190-pound tackle, collapsed and died in a huddle after four minutes of play. an examination disclosed no injur- es. "To the best of our knowl he was in the best of health," coach Joe Garrison. e said VANCOUVER LIONS were whipped on Monday night by Winni- peg Blue Bombers and that may end the reign of Annis Stukus, | only Canadian coach still active in big time football.

It's no| secret he has had the financial backing. Now the Bombers and Sask. ! Roughriders will meet in a semi-final round, winner to take on Ed-| monton Eskimos for the Western Canada title and Grey Cup berth. | Meanwhile, down this way, things are still away up in the air. Joe L. Brown, son of Joe E. Brown of movie fame, has been named the mew general manager of Pittsburgh Pirates. Joe E., as is known, has been a keen baseball enthusiast for many years and this may be a back-door entry inte major league activity, . However, the fact remains that Branch Rickey had his chancy and Pirates haven't shown too much in recent years. Now they have a team "general" and it'll be interesting to see just what steps are taken to put the Bucs back on the b am.

"The only things the players get are uniforms and oranges," Jack Funston of Halifax, president of the Nova Scotia Canadian Football | League said in an interview here recently. In 10 years football has over- taken rugger, baseball and hockey in fan appeal in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. There were times years ago when players out numbered fans. But last year the Nova * Scotia Senior League drew 35,000 custom-| ers. That was more than the at- tendance for rugger, baseball or hockey.

It was stated that the $25. li- cense fee for the two-day open season was only the beginning of a long chain of expense which has raised the cost of a two day hunt from the $35 of a few years ago to a minimum of $135, and that even this sum did not assure the hunter of one of the favoured hunting periods. It was said that rental of a small cabin on the island could cost as much as $75 or more for a three day period, with other costs correspondingly high. The Russian Boxing Men Were Not Impressed LONDON (AP)--A pair of Rus- slan amateur boxing officials headed for home today after "scouting' the United States in a 10-bout card with England Tues- day night.

City Of Montreal May Raise Rent Rlquettes' Field MONTREAL (CP) -- Montreal Alouettes may face a higher rent bill next season if the city of Montreal has its way. The city intends to ask Quebec, in the Montreal bill, for the right to tax educational and religious properties which are used for "lucrative purposes," it was learned Tuesday night. According to the proposal, prop- erties which are rented regularly would be liable to the tax on the real valuation while properties rented only occasionally would be taxed on the rate of rent. The Big Four football club cur- rently rents the stadium from Me- Gill University for six day's a year with the option on seventh and it is assumed the property would be taxed on the basis of rent col- lected.

J LONDON (CP)--Two large air- planes will take off from Toronto soon for a 6,500-mile journey and five-month vigil at the bottom of the globe. The twin-engined Canso amphib- ians will fly south to the Falkland islands, off the southern tip of South America, on a massive sur- veying mission. Between Chrismas and April, 1956, the planes will photograph about 50,000 square miles of remote Graham Land, a rocky peninsula of Antarctica. It is hoped the survey may open a new source of minerals and other basic materials for British indus- trial! development, MAJOR ROLE A British firm has been com- missioned by the United Kingdom government to carry out the sur- vey and a Canadian subsidiary will play a major part in the project. The Canadian company will supply the planes, some technical equip- ment and three members of the flying crews. The aircraft have been outfitted with cameras, magnetometers for mineral hunting and radar sys- tems for controlled approaches and landings in poor weather. They will leave Toronto Nov. 5 and fly down the east coast of South America Survey be Jim Greenshields, 32-year-old ex-RAF pilot who now lives in Oshawa, Ont. His copilot will be Lew Terry and his engineer Mike Mugford, both of Toronto. Leader of the operation is Peter Mott, a 42year-old Briton who has led three expeditions to Greenland, AIR MAPPING From Port Stanley, the aircraft will go to Deception island, miles north of Graham Land, to join the expedition's 900-ton ship, "Oluf Sven," which will serve as operation headquarters. A helicopter, flying from the ship's deck, will carry ground par- ties of surveyors, engineers, radar and radio technicians. The sur- veyors will establish a network of ground control points upon which the air mapping will be based. Deception island is a ring of cliffs, some 1,500 feet high, around a harbor which is seven miles long and six miles wide. The 13-ton air- craft, moored in the harbor, will be taxied up a sloping shore of lava ash for maintenance and fuelling and 7,000 square feet of steel plate will be laid as a slip- way.
