AUGUST 12, 1949

It was announced by officials of the Island Physical Fitness Base-

ball League yesterday that. the semi-final playoff finals will get underway a). Memorial Field on Sunday afternoon at 2:30 between the Charlottetown Abbie; and the Summerside RC AF. nine 1n o best two out. of‘ three game series. o o o

The shOrtcning of the regular schedule was brought about clue to the fact that the remaining games left to be played in the ,schedulc would have no effect on the pres. ent team standings and officials decided to disregard the rtirnainlng games and launch the playoffs, and at the same time avoid addit- ional expenses to the three clubs in travelling etc., vrhen the results could make no changes in the final standings 1n the current League.

O O O O

This of course makes the sum- mersldeCuri-an and Briggs team the official winners of the regular schedule, which was undisputed anyway. and gives them a bye into the playoff finals. It also gtvesthe Ablbics a-nd R.C.A.F. their ful standings of second and th rti respectively and necessitates them meeting in a. best of three series against one another for the right to meet Curram and Briggs ln the League playoff finals.

O O O

‘The individual statistics will not be affected by the change in the 1838119 91th". as the first. two games in the semi-finals will be counted as regular league play as far as batting averages, etc. are concerned.

O O O

"Bucko" Trainer, president of the Minor Baseball Leagues, on- nouncecl yesterday that every- thing is set to launch the Midget and Bantam League playoff finals on their way for the City titles the week immediately following Old Home Week.

O O O

The youngsters, who have been playing really smart ball this sea- son. arc at present competing against one another in the vari- ous City District League playoffs to decide their winners to meet the victors in each section for the City championships.

O O O

The present system of minor league ball has been a great thing for the kids this season. in not only contributing to the early development of our future senior ball stars, but also in keeping them interested and occupied in good healthy sport instead of playing around the streets where they are open to danger and less profitable occupations.

O O O

The system. too. has provided the older members of our athletic circles, who have foregone their days of active participation in sports, n renewed interest in the game by having the opportunity of coaching and looking after the kids in their activities. The coaches, in most instances. are getting just as much kick out of it as the kids are. It is a great opportunity for the youngsters. too, to have these interested per- sons, who have been smart ball players in former days. teach them to play the game right from the start.

O I O

The-leagues have been n great success right from the start. and much credit is clue to Bucko and his many helpers who are giving of their time freely to take charge of the kids, and with the main playoffs still at hand, there will still be plenty of smart act- ion and keen competition before the season ls over.
