Big Night Wednesday

THIS baseball doubleheader tomorrow (Wednesday) at Keane-rial Field is surely causing plenty of talk in local sports The Little Leaguers will open the show and this kind of an uicounter shouldn't need much fanfare to draw a crowd. Sure ly parents and friends of the young players will not let the 11

young; w .

These boys are playing a fine brand of ball this summer under the most capable direction. They want to show their abilities before a big turnout of fans. All season long, only a handful of parents ever show up for their contests. The feats of which. the boys are proud have gone by with_few sP€¢i§l0|’8 in the stands. To some of these little "men," its been quite a disappointment not to have room or dad watching when the ‘great things‘ were done. . _

You can atone to a degree for such laxity by turning out Wodnegday evening. The boy who wants you there may bobble com: grounders, drop some v t sure catches or whiff on a third strike. That shouldn't make too much difference. The fact that you are there showing your interest will be a great compensation. _

Let’s see the ball park packed for this Wednesday night show. The youngsters and their instructors are really counting on you to show up.

Visitors Are Stronger

THE nightcap Wednesday brings together King's County All- Stars and Charlottetown Abbies.

The Kings boys are reported to be a vastly superior crew to the last edition to come out of that county to play at Memorial Field. They have plenty of pitching strength, possess a great num- ber of hard hitters and field the ball in pretty fair fashion. _

In the Abbies, they'll be facing a team composed of what is supposedly the cream of The City Baseball League. These play- (‘I have been treating the fans to some great baseball entertain-

A Great Comeback

0NEoftlisnicesttbinasofiilieprasentbaseballcampaiIg_n hthsmaiouuiIf1haulla.ntcomebackofthat:u‘eathm'ler.Robm Roberts

The one-time Philadelphia Pliils’ moundsman was cut loose by the New York Yanioees earlier this season and the general npinionwasthat hewas through. Ifthe Yankees Eivellpmyou. ttwasprettywellagreedtheendoftahetrailhadcoime.

But Robin felt he still had some zip left in the old arm. Ho publicly announced this and the Baltimore Orioles believed what they heard. They signed the veteran flingsr and they have never regretted it.

Since joining the Birds. Roberts has found new youth. He has baffled American League batters in tremendous fashion and is at [resent the pride and Joy of the city of Baltimore.

Right now be has a 7-4 record with the Orioles and an earned an average of 2.48. Mind you, he didn't start pitching for Balti- more until May 21. His seven victories thus far in 1962 bring his litetirne total to 241. His latest success was a five hitter against the ambitious Los Angeles Angels, beating them 7-2.

All baseball fans are deli ted with Robin's sucxess. The crafty veteran has still the ability needed to stop the opposition. Indeed he is much sharper than last season when his ERA wi the Plilllies was a lofty 5.85. If he misses out on the comeback- of-tbr-year award, we will give up on paying attention to any of these goings-on.

A truly great comeback by one of baseball's great guys.

Congrcitulations

lI’S old stuff to co-worker Art Ma.cKenzie but nevertheless we can't let the occasion pass without extending congratulations. _ Orce again the redhead has copped the Island amateur golf crown. He fired a par 7'2 at Summerside Saturday to beat Frank Maclnnis of Charlottetown by three strokes in the 36-hole com- petition. Art had a 77 at Charlottetown July 23 and finished with his 72 at Summerside. Frank's scores were 77 and 75.

Nice going, gentlemen.

The Lions made a bid to even the score in their half of the frame, when leadoff sticker Art Ballem stroked a double, his

third of the game. Ballem died on second however with the next two batters hitting infield pop- ups. The fourth batter drew a walk but the next sticker hit in- to a forceout play to retire the side and give the Park the vic-

Discuss Playoffs At Loop Meet RSIDE — The Prince

tive held a meeting at the CJ- RW studio last night with the president. Rev. Mark Ferguson, in the chair. The problems re- lating to the play-offs were dis- cussed, and it was decided that Save - Easies and Macxenzies will play a best three out of five series, and the winner will go in- to the finals with the RCAF club, and also enter the provin- clal finals against Charlottetown. In other words, two birds will be killed with one stone. The RCAF team. not registered as a Senior "B" club, will not par- ticipate in the provincial play-

offs.

It was decided that the first game will be held at the Queen Elizabeth Park softball diamond on Wednesday evening with Mac- Kenzies the home team. Other games will be decided later as soon as another problem which arose is cleared up. The finals will be 4 out of 7.

The president announced that word had been received that in the provincial finals Charlotte- town will play one game at Sum- merside on September 1. A re- turn game, and if necessary two, will be played in Charlottetown on September 8.

The Prince Edward Island win- ner will play at Nova Scotia win- ner on September 15 and on Sep- tember 22. Nova Scotia will play one game, and if necessary, a second in Prince Edward Island.
