Mary is the manager of the Richmond Hill Legion Intermediate La- dies Team and this was the season she was sure she was going to sniff the glories that once were Rome’s. What's that? The team, undefeated in ‘Ieague play this season and featuring the superb hurling of Marion Fox, figured to blow down the opposition enroute to All- On_tz_arig honors. But something happened. ,VOL. 95, NO. 8 This time it was the "but" that told the whole story. The Legion ladies had just blown a 7-2 game to Cobourg in the third and final game of their best- of-three PWSU second round playoffs and were sidelinesville for 1971. But gloofn, unholy girl gloom, was they name lof the scene the other evening when I chatted to Mary in her home at 124 Harding Boulevard. Good reas- on. too. V Mary’s visions of a 1971 PWSU Championship had just gurgled down the drain. For the third straight season, yet! ' “I figured this year‘s team had to be it", she said. “It’s the best team I‘ve ever handled. But . . .” BUT! I "If" and “but” are the bane of mankind. If I had done this, but if you hadn't. Agggh! Scrap ’em both. V Mary has been-ffying to win it since she started playing ball in 1952, since she started managing and lollcoaching Richmond Hill girl teams 11 years ago. Sometimes there just ain't (yes, I know, ain’t ain’t in the dictionary!) no justice in this world. Just ask Mary Williami son.
