Island Teams Consider Entering Baseball league i

Following the Maritime Amateur Athletic Union quarterly executive meeting held at Amherst, N. 5., on Saturday afternoon, a meeting of representatives from Amherst, Sackville, Parrsboro, Sprlnghlll, Saint John, Charlottetown and Summerslde, was held to discuss the feasibility of organizing a Cen- tral Baseball League, which would consist of a series of competitions for ts Senior "B" title.

Coneide h‘ discussion took place and it was finally agreed that such a League would be worth while. However, the only delegates present who were able to de- finitely say their teams would par- ticipate were those of the Amherst Ramble-re and the Charlottetown Abegweits. Three other delegates agreed to put the proposal before their organizations and lt is expect- ed that at least two of these will also be definite entries. The clubs contemplating entering the loop will be reporting their decisions on the matter in the next few days, and it is expected that an organiz- ation meeting for the League will be held in Amherst next week-end.

The City and Brovlrwe in gener-

al Saturday lost ' another keen sports follower witih the sudden passing of William “Bill" Nicholson, a passing that came suddenly after "Bill" had fought of! various terms of ill health for several years. due to a diabetic‘ c¢:_ncl.l.‘.(.sl_ .

Bill was a close follower of a.ll branches of sports but it was horse racing that probably drew his greatest attention. A son of the late Dr. J.M. Nicholson, who owned and raced a. number of outstanding horses d-urlng his lifetime Bill, de- veloped a love for the trottars and panel's from his earliest days and hi; was a. faunlliar figure at all Maritime hamess racing meetings. Bill lunew a "good one" and he could also trace back the breeding at a moment's notice. I I l O

In competition Bill excelled at billiards at a time when there were rnrany fine shots around. Notable among these was his late brother frank. Fred McMahon, Frank Douoette and many others. Many the nerve tingling struggle was witnessed in play for provincial titles and it W85 fitting that "Bill" was able to rack up his share of triumphs in the tough competition of his day. ' . _

In later years he burned to curl- ing and here again he advanced rapidly and although his number of years at the game was limited he nevertheless was am astute skip of the local club. Of a friendly nat- ure “Bill” won many friends who will mourn hi, passing and this column joins in extending sincere sympathy to the bereaved relatives of a “good fellow};

Now with baseball in the strand plans being put forward to more and more stress on the-young- er players it might not be a. bad idea. for those ln official capacities to decide upon some set method of breaking the youngst in, particu- larly the very ypuhg ‘classes,

And in this cormeciion we would like to call attention to the fine series that has been drawn up by Vince “Leity" McQueid in con- nection with (‘he training of young- sters in the fundamentals of the game. "Lefty" had put much time and thought into his pictorial story 0f the fundamentals of the game and» they are backed up by the ex- perience he himself gained through the years when he was one of the most outstanding h-urlers of the Provinpe, due to an assortment of curves, and blinding speed thrown from the port side of the pitching er- O I O I

Lefty's production starts out wit-h the proper position to throw a ball, and follows it down the various moti so necesary for precision in throwing correctly and on com- pletion being in the proper position to field a bail coming in t-hst dir- ection.

That taker care of one stage of the training but in a second vol- tme the offensive stage is thor- oughly looked after, such as correct batting stances. grip on the bat, base running etc_ Then also there is a rotation unit in action where a unit complement of three rotates in pitching, catching and batting practice.

That is a brief summary of the volumes but there canbeno denying their wort-h to green youngsters breaking in. "Lefty" himself has a group of youngsters under his wing who are fast coming along in base- bsll end with an issue such as he has available for coaches. it seems as if full advantage should be take en of the many useful pointers to be found within‘ its pages,
