The local High School will enter the “Frank Halbus Junior Relay Race” which consists of four runners going 440, 110, 110 and 440 yards respectively. Their competi- tion will be from Whitby, Gravenhurst and Grimsby ‘High Schools. Incidentally, Frank Halbus was an Olym- pic runner of the early 1900’s and retired just last year from the Ontario College of Education where he was a professor. _ The programme will be confined to relay races. Each race is named after a well-known Canadian Track per- sonality and four schools will be invited to compete in one particular race. In addition to competing in the one race the runners will have a chance to see the best that other High Schools can produce. Experienced school and AAU of C officials will be on hand to run the meet and Pickering College, a member of the Georgian Bay District of C.0.S.S.A., will manage the meeting. Lots of worthy campaigns have been going on re- cently but it’s nice to keep the money in the district. Your investment in youth may be sent to the Rich- mond Hill Arena Association, c/o Bank of Nova Scotia, Richmond Hill. You will receive an official receipt and the debentures will follow when the quota is reached. The Quaker Relays Richmond Hill District High School has been invited take part in the Quaker Relays at Pickering College emorial Field on May 15. The purpose of the meet is to provide relay racing experience to a goodly number of secondary schools in the south and centre part of the province. There will be two age groups â€" Junior and Senior and there will be races for the two types of schools, A and B. The relays are on a Saturday from 2 to 4 pm. and if you are a track and field enthusiast take the short 18 mile trip up to Newmarket and you will see the best of all events, the relays. vv.uv.... v..- ___ Bill'éEin'pbell’s High School Badrninton Club held its final meeting of the year last week. They decided to put their surplus funds into the purchase of an ar- tificial ice debenture. The High School will probably go into interform hockey in a big way next season. They have dabbled in it but with natural ice it was too discouraging. Maybe this coming winter will change this. “Millaybody- siée'rfis to be talking about artificial ice and the campaign.

Watch for the large “thermometer” which will in- dicate how the campaign is progressing. I have heard several people discussing this plan of making their investment in the children. They borrow from the bank, buy their debentures, and pay interest on their loan. The interest on their loan is lost to them but they put it down as their part each year in providing skating for everybody in the district. Not a bad idea, when you think of it! l'l‘,'A‘ :r_ i'eached. 5vuy1u¢ Thornhill takes care of the summer months with its swimming pool and we hope the Arena can supply the winter pastime.

The propsed plant can supply four. The Arena lighting is excellent as it was installed just two years ago. The ice plant will be placed in a building between the Arena and the Curling Rink. The cement floor to cover the pipes will cost about $5,000. This will make all year round activities poss- ible for Fairs, exhibits, etc. Some arenas don’t have floors; the pipes just liethere.‘ .n A‘ “vv-.. v-nv r-r-~ uww. 77v ljebentures won’t be sent out until the necessary quota has been reached.

The new sur- face will mean much more trac- tion and speed for the cars in any kind of weather. Semi-final has Jacques Dubois of Sudbury meeting the veteran Red Garner in a two out of three falls, 45 minute limit match. In the two preliminaries The Black Panther will appear against Dan- ny Mahoney, giant Irish wrestler who tips the scale at 250 lbs, so beware, Panther, beware! Weak Spots In The Strike Zone The first thing that should be emphasized is that there are nearly always exceptions to any rule. However, studies by such famous baseball experts as Elmer Berry, Hugh S. Fullerton and Bert Dunne show that, on an av- erage. the hardest ball for a rtghthander to hit is low over the inside corner. For the average lefthander the bad spot is low and outside. Wrestling fans will see some new faces on the card this Thurs- day. May 20. at the Richmond Hill arena and one of them will be Harold VanDyke, Richmond Hill, who is being brought on un- der the wing of Red Garner. In the opener. Harold will try his skill against Ripper Leonard. outstanding middleweight. An- other newcomer will be huge Danny Mahoney. Irish wrestler from County Down. The main bout will have plenty of action for the fans to holler about as it brings together two traditional enemies. Baron Von Sieber, German mat ace and Killer Mangotich. Slavic Sensa- tion, and present Canadian champion. No love has ever been lost between these two men and some of the best matches ev- er witnessed have been between them. The Baron, bigger and stronger than ever, states flatly. and we quote. “I am going to be- come one of the greatest of Ger- man wrestlers and will prove it Thursday when I throw Mango- tich in two straight falls." However, Mangotich has differ- ent ideas and will try to prove the boastful German is wrong. Who is right? Come next Thurs- day and see WAR between Yugo- slavia and Germany. All pitchers reading this should remember these facts and all hitters should take this informa- tion to heart and do something about these weak spots. For ex- ample, get extra hitting practice with the ball thrown to these weak spots. If you have diffi- culty with balls thrown to these areas or if you have any other bad spot it is wise never to swing at a ball thrown in this area un- less you have two strikes on you or, of course, if the hit and run play has been called. That the average young ball player should make more of a study of his weak spots is indi- cated by the fact that a recent study showed that nearly 80% of the young players interviewed had no idea at all of their actual weakness. As far as they were concerned they just hit some and missed others. So, take a strike zone â€" and do something tip and find your weak spot in the about it.

Children under 12 are admitted free of charge. was officially opened by Gori Mangotich who also opened a small cut on the head of his wor- thy opponentv, an Italian Gentle- man, (we use the term loosely) by name of Al Orlando, who hails from West Toronto. As far as the 400-0dd fans who turned out were concerned, he can go back there. Orlando, who is a very rugged fellow, was in there with Mango. tich. a sometimes-favorite with the local fans, and for the first 15 minutes looked like a sure winner over the champion. How- ever after starting fast .he faded out like a light after Mangotich slipped his new Mexican Back- stretcher hold on him. This Man- gotich is one of the most power- ful middleweight grapplers this writer has ever seen and will most likely climb to the top of the wrestling ladder. Jacques Du Bois captured the fancy of the crowd with his acro- batic grappling ability. Add a dash of roughness and you have something every fan loves. Inci- dentally this match coming up between Du Bols and Mangotich should be a thriller. Du 8015 was matching holds with Long Tom Sullivan of Brampton when he apparently became annoyed by Sullivan’s dirty tactics and jump- ed right into him with fists and knees going and tossed for the finish. Red Garner ran into a tough customer from Hamilton in Hari Szaley and wound up with a win but only after some rather rug- ged going. "Scissors" Joe Green- field started out slowly but came on fast to grab the nod over Jack Flicker of Aurora. basic fundamentals of good broad jumping. In the past most broad jumpers tried to get height off the board by setting up a hurdle or some such object which they had to jump over. This not only interferes with certain styles of broad jumping but also defeats the idea of getting height beâ€" cause the jumper’s vision is directed either straight ahead or downward, To get height your eyes must be looking up. A good idea is to have something sus- pended above the jumping pit at which you look after you have made sure that your foot is going to hit the board. Remember, you must look up to get up. After School Snack An ideal between meal snack, especially after school. is a hon- ey sandwich. A good point to keep in mind when preparing your snack is that if you are us- ing white bread you should make sute you use enriched bread so that you will get the necessary nutrients which are a must for every young athlete.
