We might add that Bruce Murchison had planned to sit on the sidelines this year after 14 years associated with coach- ing baseball, but somehow has found himself as assistant coach of the Lions.

A game that was enjoyed thoroughly by those spectators who were present on July 19 was played between the Fire- men and the Vaughan Police- men. Although not as many of our finest were able to partici- pate because of shift work and holidays as hadrbeen hoped, the game was a lot of fun and the Firemen won 15-10. £13; ‘Ebrfimunityrfiall Park at Anothef'iga‘me is scheduled for next Sunday.
