A meeting of all bowling league executives oper- ating at Allencourt Lanes was held on Sunday, Aug- ust 13th. Plans to have a central executive and sub- committees formed to handle complaints and inter- league scheduling were proposed and got verbal ac- ceptance. After the short meeting broke 1m, mmctc â€" SPORTS SPOTS â€" The bowling fraternity (and sorority) are champ- ing at the bit waiting for bowling to get under way for another year. Since the wind-up last spring some ardent bowlers (it is rumoured) have been growing and ï¬ling toenails in a real effort to eliminate foul line problems. They‘re really going to dig in!! Mr. George Nicholson of the Eastsiders bowling league would like to let everyone know that his fay- ourite league opens for action on Tuesday, Septem- ber 5th at 7.00 pm. and that the time is 7 pm. sharp. The Eastsiders are also launching out with a corn and Wiener roast which goes at 8.00 pm. on Fri- day. September 8th. Tickets are 50c. so if you’d like to launch out (ouch! what a lousy pun!) why not plan to attend? ' SPORT BY Coach Russ Snider, of Bayview High School J un- ior Football Team, ï¬gures to have a. real powerhouse going for him from the initial practice. Mr. Snider is one of the most respected teachers we know and he has willing material talked into reporting in excellent condition. Bayview intends to make a determined bid for football recognition this year and. if desire is what it takes, then they’ll be recognized. WIZUMEIXXXIL NUMBER 8 At Richmond Hill High School, Bill Babcock won’t be coaching football this year. That’s what the man says. He has enough other duties to make for a full day and just won’t have the time to devote. This man kids you not. His schedule of activities would tax Charles Atlas, there just isn’t room for any more. Same story down at Thornhill. Charlie Seath is calling it quits as a football coach. Mr. Seath also has an action packed agenda ahead of him and he feels that he just won’t have the time to devote to football. If the successors to these two worthy gentlemen have the same success enjoyed by aforesaid parties, both schools should have a big football year. Just wait until the ï¬rst practice and the sound of the toe meeting leather is heard throughout the hallowed halls of learning. If they still stay retired, then they really meant it. Even if they don’t coach a team, neither school will have any more ardent fans than these two good people. It does remind us, however, that school will be resuming any day now. The high school set are hur- riedly collecting clothes and books in just that order. Would-be football players are starting to take a bit of exercise and teachers are already practicing stern and solemn looks. It’s really a great time of the year but just try telling that to the happy student in your house! They’ll never believe you. â€" SPORTS SPOTS â€" Summer draweth fast to a close now that Exhi- bition time is here. Some wit once remarked that you always know when it’s “Ex†time in Toronto because all the roads are under repair and four lanes of traf- ï¬c funnel down to one. Probably a gross overstate- ment with a. touch of hyperbole thrown in for good measure.

Dynes Jewellers, facing elim- ‘ination in the second game of the series, played brilliantly to tie the series by winning 5-1. A third and ï¬nal game was necessary to declare a winner and Allencourt fought back to achieve a 10-8 win after being‘ down in the score on three occasions. For softball fans the series and 5‘ was all that was promised. The D0" ï¬nal game in particular had smith fans elated or in the depths of a pm despair, depending upon where centre the loyalties lay.

V3†3‘ Roberts, Sullivan Start Watt Allencourt Lanes elected to start Norm Roberts and Dynes Jewellers gave Al Sullivan the nod in the ï¬rst game played on Tuesday of last week. For seven innings it was a real pitchers’ duel with both clubs playing close «to the vest. Finally, in the seventh inmng. two back- to-back home runs. one by Gary Smith and the other by Don Mac'Millen, saw Bill Jack- son come in to relieve Sullivan. Richards got off to a shaky start, but by the third inning had steadied away and was pitching in the form that he displayed in last year's O.A.S.A. Allencourt Lanes defeated Dynes Jewellers by winning two of the three games in the opening round of the O.A.S.A. intermediate “A†playdowns. The win sends Allencourt against Franklin's men’s Wear of the North York League and the Jewellers can hang up their tack as far as O.A.S.A. play goes this year.
