TRACK AND FIELD PLAN ; One of the best jobs in aid of amateur sport in this country is being done by the Royal Canadian. Legion. They have a very comprehensive national; sports training plan and, for the moment, are con-l centrating heavily on track and field. This is onei of the very few major organizations that have taken € a big interest in a very basic sporting event . When track and field sports are mentioned in this day and age the names of athletes such as Bruce Kidd, Bill Crothers, Nancy McCredie and Abbie l Hoffman come immediately to mind. This is natural ‘ because these young people have captured the imag- ination of the entire country. And yet, behind these names are a host of other talented young athletes who have not yet achieved their full potential. Some day hey, too, will achieve a certain measure of fame. he legion program is designed to help these young- 1 sters realize their natural abilities to the fullest‘ [extent and to see that they are trained and coached “properly. It is the aim of the Royal Canadian Legion :to see that Canada gains stature in ‘the world of the spiked shoe‘and the-flyingdiscus. 1:- 7L To further this end the legion is holding coach- ing and training clinics and promoting track and field meets from one coast to the other. It was the legion who sponsored, ran and directed the indoor track and field meet in Winnipeg that drew 1,300 entries from amongst the high school crowd. With such direct involvement in running a meet of this size, the legion is doing much more than offering mere .lip service to‘the cagse‘ they have. sponsored. ._.- .. “A1,. u UV.- V<vv vw..-- Any track and field meet, while appearing rela- "tively easy to operate to the lay eye. is, in fact, a very complicated affair. For one thing track and field athletes are usually a. fairly high-strung group â€"not nervously high-strung but rather possessing a great deal of nervous energy. For this reason the timing of events is of the utmost importance so that this nervous energy is not dissipated prior to the event. In addition there are 1,001 other details that ,have to be taken care of before any runner can run or jumper can go leaping into the wild blue yonder. - All in all, the Royal Canadian Legion deserve a big vote of thanks for what they are doing now and :will do in the future for Canadian athletics. Some day it may be possible to hold a legion track and field meet in this area and let local citizenry have a look at what their program is all about. Without track facilities this may prove somewhat difficult, but not insurmountable, to the Royal Canadian Legionâ€"a group who have proved so well in two World Wars that they can solve almost any problem thrown at v-4--- -u-n- v- - -1 them.

Two Great Games: The juvenile section of the R.H.M.B.A. is providing some red hot softball action for the edification of local fans. A lar- ge crowd last Monday night witnessed one of the best games so far this season as Bayview B.A. squeezed out a 4-3 win over “The Liberal". George Hopkins. on the mound for the Bayview B.A. allowed only four hits over the seven inning route - a feat duplicated by Dave Deighton who handled “The Liberal" pit- ching chore. Hero of the piece for Bay-‘ view B.A. was Doug Danter. Danter rapped out a home run with two men on to give the gasolinemen a big boost to- ward the win. Sharp defensive work by both infielders and outfielders of both clubs provided some fine action. The kids are playing better softball with each start and should attract a great deal of spectator interest before the season is finished. Bork Jewellers and ‘The Lib- eral“ will play a rained-out game starting at 6:15 pm. this Friday night. ' Reid's Auto Body bested Bork Jewellers by a 7-2 count behind the pitching of Doug Carter. Carter struck out elev- en Bork hopefuls on the way to win. Bruce Sim handled the pitching chore for Bork Jewel- lers and struck out nine. Youth Cards Ace At Victoria Sq. Sixteen year old Stuart Barnes, 216 Alverna Cres- cent, Richmond Hill, came up with the golfers’ de- light while playing at Vic- toria Square on June 17. The youthful Mr. Barnes used a number two wood off the tee on the ninth hole. a 175 yard par three affair. Much to his delight and amazement he had the pleasure of watching his tee shot disappear into the cup. Martin Gooch and Scott McDonald were able to at- test to Stuart's feat and also to his total for 18 holes. Final count was 105 but who cares when you come up with the thrill of a lifetime? There’s one small lam- ent in the Barnes menage.

Although the Russians can shoot rockets to the moon, put men into orbit, produce a most acceptable drink called Vodka, have the world’s strongest women (they can have ’em). it seems they still haven‘t discovered a method of controlling or eli- minating the curse of the north.

If possible, fish with a cigar smoking friend who blows his smoke in your face and you-reply with kind. The draWback to this is that thirty-five cigars a day leaves your throat feeling like a blast furnace chimney. I had a doctor tell me black flies seem to prefer people who are deficient in vitamin B. In this case it might be wise to take some pills or inoculations to build up your system before leaving on your trip. After a trip to the Madawas- ka River a few years ago, I re- turned so badly chewed up that I was in a miserable state for over a week. My wrists and â€"â€" neck were so swollen, I -I couldn't even button my collar ‘or cuffs. I am not referring to timber wolves, polar bears or abomin- able snowmen who are sweet tempered lovable types in com- parison to these agents of the devil. (No m'am, not bartend- ers). I am speaking of the black fly. SMALL BUT BITEY I can imagine all you anglers who have headed into the northcountry this time of year are now nodding your heads in agreement. You known what a painful curse this mean temp- ered critter can be. The old adage that black fly time is trout time is pretty close to the truth. The black-i flies are generally at their worst when trout are at their best. Anyone who has been out when the blackflies were on a feeding spree can readily be- lieve the stories of men who were lost in the bush being killed or driven insane by these \insects. I recall one occasion many years ago. when I happened to be discussing blackflies with a veteran woodsman. I was young and still wet behind the ears at the time and when he mentioned how badly they could bite I said that I had been in the bush many times and blackflies didn‘t bother me. “Hell. son“. he replied. "Blackflies are like women. They’re agreeable one day and the next day they‘ll chew‘ your ear off". John Power NEARLY EATEN ALIVE One wonders how such a di- minutive beast can inflict such a painful and infectious wound. The bites became badly in- fected and even when they eventually did clear up I car- ried the scars for months after. I have often heard of people being hospitalized due to black- fly bites. CAUSE STAMPEDES Blackflies breed in spring and lay their eggs on rocks or leaves just below the surface of the water. They lay several hundred eggs which take from four to twelve days to hatch depending on weather condit- ions. They are normally active morning and evening spending the hot periods of the day un- der leaves in shady, cool spots. (From experience - do not count on thisl. They may bother cattle so much they will cause them to stampede. (Known to do the same to humans'. REPELLANTS? The insect repellants I have tested have been largely inef- fective with blackflies. I recall liberally rubbing 6-12 on my neck and arms and setting the open bottle on a rock beside me as I applied it. When I picked it up to screw the cap back on. the flies were crawl- mg right into the bottle with a wild gleam in their eyes as they lapped it up. Member of Outdoor WIVIIEIS of HOW TO DRESS Wear dark clothes since light colored clothing seems to at- tract them. A headnet is a must. Al- though they are hot and stuffy to wear, they are certainly the lesser of two evils. Wear at least a nine inch boot, since a low shoe will leave your ankles vulnerable. Blackflies are capable of biting or burrowing through the thickest of socks. Your shirt or jacket should be tucked inside your trousers and your belt tightened up an extra notch. Tuck your pants snugly in your boots. I need not elaborate on the painful outcome of blackflies up the pant leg. A thin pair of rubber surgical gloves pulled over your cuffs will complete your ensemble. If your hands'get hot while wearing these merely dip them in the water. rink which included FIRESTONE STORES Richmond Heights. > Richmond Hill. 6 70-15 7.5044 6.70-15 7.50-14 7.1045 8.0044 7.60-15 8.5044 6.00-13 SIZE 9.50â€"14 24 MONTH ROAD HAZARD GUARANTEE Canada I‘l milor savings on other sizes and types. blackwall â€" {ubeless blackwoll -' tubeleu whiuwull - Iubeless whiflewall - whales: whitewall - {ubeless Mabel!“ whnewa whitewall - qube|ess TYPE 4-4401 r i .

Work Of Fish & Wildlife Staff YOUNG'S During peak periods of activity. such as the spring spawning run of fish, opening of duck and pheasant seasons, and prior to opening of deer season, deputy game wardens give unstintingly of their time. without remuneration, and on Most of the rules in softball are quite easy to understand but there is one rule which consistently confuses players, fans and even umpires. Yes, even the most experienced um- pire gets lost occasionally try- ing to understand the “infield Briefly. the rule states that, “with less than 2 out. and run- ners on first and second, the batter is out for hitting a fly ball that in the opinion of the umpire can be caught by an infielder. Now. ddes that sound too difficult? For some strange reason, it is, to most people. Here is a tip, and an easy way to understand this compli- cated rule. Remember why the rule is in the book. Imagine to yourself what would happen on a fly ball without the infield fly rule. The runners would be forced to advance, and a good fielder could make a routine catch into a double play. He could‘ trap the ball, and get the run- ners on a force out. The infield fly rule is there to protect the \runners. and prevent the field- er 1 play‘ the runners do not have to move off their bases. THERE IS NO FORCE PLAY. This is the important thing. There is no force play. The batter is out as soon as the ball goes in the air. Now, let’s see you match your wits with the umpire. This in your opinion can be caught by an infielder, you call “infield fly,” if fair The batter is out. The ball remains in play. The batter is out whether the fly is caught or not. The runners may advance, but do not have to. This is a very important rule, and I strongly advise all um- pires and players to know it well.

Port Severn, North River, Sturgeon River. Washago. Pine River, Boyne River and Pretty River. The efforts of these men, who are on constant night patrol of the fish spawning grounds, under the supervision of our I Conservation Officers, is probably the largest con- tributing factor to the appar- ent decline of poaching of fish in this district during the spring spawning period. Deputies are advised to work in pairs. close to or with a uniformed conservation officer, and it is stressed that the object of patrol is to prevent violations, rather than to catch offenders after fish have been taken. Installation of a controlled radio in a central spot. to ensure direct communication with all units during the night hours, proved to be an import- Ant asset in directing person- nel to troubled areas quickly. is a tricky one, but remember that if you were the umpire you would have less than one second to make the call. and no second chance. How would you call this play? .1 There is one on first. and none out. The batter hits a little pop fly to the second base man. Seeing that he will be out, the batter drops his bat and just jogs to first. The field- er seeing this, does not catch the ball, but traps it, and re- lays it to first. The first sacker takes the toss, and touches the runner who is still standing on first, then touches the bag, for a double play. 01‘ is it? The manager claims that this play ‘is not legal. You are the um- pire. You call it. How many of you said that the runner could not be put out while standing on the base. Well, you were wrong. This play was a perfect double play, for when the fielder trapped the ball, the runner on first was forced to advance. Since he was tagged before he reach- ed second, he is out.
