He used to have a cottage next to mine up at Orchard Beach Gardens. That’s at the north end of Keswick. He could get me tickets wheneVer I wanted them. Of courSe, I paid for them.” 1, (Continued from Page 13) me a thrill in his life. He does everything so smoothly you don’t know he’s doing it.” ‘ The same Mr. Tate helped open the present day Maple Leaf Gardens back in the early 1930’s by being one of the first spectators there.

Frank told me not to forget to mention the people he need to attend the games with regularly in those early years. They were the late Percy Hill, Len Clement, Arm Savage and Frank Schissler. “We had some good itimAes,’_’ he said. Frank, now a widOWer, was a long-time employee with Ontario Hydro and has been retired for the past - But he stays active. “1 do odd jobs for the ladies along my street,” he said with a twinkle in his eye. “A number of widows live across the street and I buy the groceries for them, look after their furnaces. It keeps me busy. They’re very nice people.” an r ‘1 ‘‘‘‘‘ “They had a lot of injuries. But they’ll be back. They've got some good young players like Rickie Ley, Jim McKenny and Jim Dorpy.

Now for some SWeet smells of summer. Or is that pollution I’ve been warming up to all the time? However, so be it.

The master reports most of last year’s powerful contingent back in the fold along with a few starry new ones. The new faces out for the practice in- clude some well-known names (and good players, too) in softball circles such as Derek Kinnersley, Bob Smith, Larry Brown, Bruce Campbell, Stan Donner, and Bob Shelston. Running them down quickly, Kinnersley lined up with Tube-Craft in The Beaches last season, out- fielder, fast on the paths, etc., Smith, also Tube- Craft, third basemamshortstop, good all-around, Brown, Shopsy’s of The Beaches, catcher. Campbell formerly played for Baytor’s a few seasons ago and was one of the top hitters around in the days of Pitcher Ray Judd. He’s been playing in the Halifax area for the past fiVe years. Finally, Shel-ston, good young local catcher who played with Bay Ridges in the Oshawa Softball League last season and was formerly with Kent Clothes. He also plays other positions. That’s it. - f AND SO ON And a note from Shirley Lee re the final reg- istration date this Saturday for young people want- ing to participate in the Richmond Hill Minor Ball Association this summer. A Registration will be in the local arena and will run from 11 am to 2 pm. A total of 374 registrations to date, 120 of them girls. Mrs. Lee stresses that the girls will be split into two different age groups this season, from 7 to 11 and from 12 to 16 years. This will allow the girls to play in their own age groups. Good idea. Sport S’pots... Some shorties now. The golfing season is heading into full-swing. One of the first signs of spring came weeks ago when Reg Acomb of Richmond Hill, head man at Thornhill Uplands Golf Course, got his first seven applications for the Eager Beaver which is slated for May 30 this year. The ’Enger BetiVer follows on the heels of the Ontario Golf Association’s Champion of Champions tournament at St. George’s May 29. ' And, finally, see where Marty Philip. formerly manager of the Goodyear Store in Richmond Hill, will manage the Scarboro entry in the Leaside Base- ball League. Marty is the scout in the Metro Toronto area for San Francisco Giants of the majors. SOMERVILLE CAR 8.

Last January and Febru- ary Department of Lands and Forests personnel live- trapped 140 wild ring- necked pheasants in town- ships on the periphery of Toronto where they were abundant and where the discharge of firearms is prohibited. After capture the biuds were taken to the two pheasant haicheries at Nor- mandale and Codrington, where their wild strain was introduced into the hat- chery-reared stock. It is felt that when the wild birds are bred with the domestic stock. the regultant strain will be more wily and pro- Vide more of a challenge for the hunter.

SMELT FISHING A pussible abundance of smelt in creeks and shallow areas of Lake Simcoe this spawning sea- son was indicated during the past winter which showed a marked increase of smelt 1caught, so the Department of Lands and Forests has invited lall fishermen to help reduce the lake's population of t‘heSe small silvery fish. The smelt are not native to the lake, and since they. are both a predator and a food source for larger fish species, it is not yet known whether their intro- duction was a good or bad thing. ‘Smelt have_ first-rate table qualities, having a firm flesh with an excellent flavor. The exact dates when the smelt will be running depend on climatic conditions, especially temperature. REMINDER 0A resident seine or dip- net licence is required to take smelt for personal use (fee $1). 0 If you are 19 years of age or over you may legally take smelt by dipâ€"net if you hold a resident angler’s licence or a $1 dip-net licence. to bait the traps, both in the tunnel and in the cage. The pheasants nibbled their way right through the tun- nel and found it Virtually impossible to get out. Of- ficers inspected the traps twice a day and all Captive birds were mnsfened to nearby holding pens. O The fishing licence does not grant permission to trespass on private property. 0 Any person littering public lands and waters is liable upon summary conviction to a fine of not more than $500. HoweVer, the take was not confined to pheasants. Conservation officers re- leased many songbirds, one pigeon and a few cotton- tail rabbits attracted by the corn. The most spectacular catch was two red-tailed hawks. Apparently the two meat-eating birds of prey had spotted three pheasants in the trap and just couldn‘t pass up the opportunity of a gourmet luncheon. structure of the traps modified to eliminate further predations Of kind. The trapping project is to be continued annually and is aimed at introduemg a wilder strain in the hat- chery stock and to provide breeding stock for 'finy Marsh. “By George, that’s what I call a day!
