The plea was made to a meeting of the council this week-end by Don Mackay, field representative of the Ontario Safety League. Mr. Mackay, who recently or- ganized the town's first school safety patrols in one ward of Whit- by, suggested that the safety council might well take as its next project the formation, in the high school of a driver education course.

George Carver of Belleville, in announcing through his column, to the people of that city, that the Eastern legaue had decided to go Senior "A." started his report off, by saying "who | 4 the June meeting of Whitby trict, and the work now being | Branch 112 of the Canadian Legion, | completed will further improve it. | committee reports were presented, { |and adopted, a new member for- The caretaker for some Jiine, {mally welcomed into the fold, and| Alf Reardon, who 1s completing plans completed for summer hie > a Te | hi ' 3 vith a | sports in which the branch will be ie work ie hus dope. for thei knows, but what Belleville might not win an Allan Cup in the dim and distant future," We might at this time say that Mr. Car- | directly i sted. directly interested oran.h gotside of Ms regular dus] ties.

The Just three years ago the present Senior "A" league had eight clubs in the fold. Today they have, at the moment, only three definite entries for the 1956-57 season, During last week's Senior nA il Mr. Bil of Windsor, (in answer to president Frank Buckland's suggestion that the Junior "A" sal- ary limit was working out well) said, "last year I offered two players just out of Junior "A', $135.00 a week and they wouldn't sign." We do not have the Information as to who these two play- ers were, Mr, Butcher, but it would be our guess that they likely were tabbed for delivery to a pro club in either the American, Quebec or Western league, and the reason they wouldn't sign was because they were above senior "A" calibre, and to play amateur they would naturally ask financial reimbursement to the same amount they could get in pro, This is the situation that has forced the Senior "'A" league almost out of existence.

LAST COMPLETE SHOW 8:20 Oaks and allowed the BA's six hits, all scattered. Big gun for the locals at the plate was shortstop, Hilt O'Neil, who had two hits MANAGERS FIGHT The most exciting part of the game had little to do with base- ball but more resembled the Tues- aay night's wrestling show at the arena. It all started in the fifth inning with Whitby at the plate Al MacDonald had a count of 0 and 3 when he stepped out of the batter's box. Paton, the pitcher halfway through his pitch stopped and Al claimed a balk. Oakville manager Bud Corbett came running from the dugout and began to argue with Al Mac- Donald. Ken MacDonald, the BA's nanager took objection to a few remarks made by Corbett and be- fore the crowd knew what was taking place both managers were volling around in the dirt back of home plate. Control was finally restored with Doby, the umpire, sending both' managers to the showers along with Ken Pollack another Oakville player who had irritated the umpire with his ver hal attack. Perhaps the most unfortunate person on the field was plate um pire Doby who came out of the fracas with a large rip in the knee of his pants. It seems that during the scuffle Doby had the misfor- pro, then its merely a matter of time lay As Innings three, four and five were players, equal to those made in . A" hockey.

WHITBY DAY-BY-DAY Accounts of social events and news items of local interest and names of visitors are ap- preciated. Therefore, we come to the moral of today's column, Mr. Car- | ver's remark that somewhere in the future, there may be an Allan Cup for Belleville is most true, Eventually those Senior "A" leagues who are dolling out the bucks right and left, will go un- der. Out of it, they will return with clubs that they can afford, equal only to those clubs which Belleville, Kingston, Cornwall, etc., can afford, because North Bay, Stratford, Owen Sound, etc, are no larger nor no different than the former. Hockey in the Eastern Senior league is a good brand. With one or two improve- ments it will be the best that money (common sense money) can buy. Delegates at the Eastern league meeting, strongly suggest ed that hecause the league had decided to go Senior An they should have learned a lesson from their cousins in the West, and keep some kind of guiding hand on operating costs. We think the club operators will do this, and some day when common sense prevails everywhere, the league will win their share of Allan Cups. Meanwhile, we would like to quote the words of Art Bo- gart of Pembroke, when ne said at the Eastern league meeting: "Winning the Allan Cup should be an accident." "You should never try to buy it." And belleve us, when you look at the red ink that has been used in Pembroke the past few years, they should know what they are talking about. . ie regarded by those who know it to be one of the finest In the dis-' REFRIGERATORS IN EVERY SIZE AT EVERY PRICE PHILCO 1162 -- Big food storage capacity at low cost.
