By NORMAN MacDONALD

Off-season: sports meetings are likely tobe’ poorly attended, and that was true of the meeting at Civie ‘Stadium Wednesday even-

ing to discuss the possibility wt -

Summerside’s. joining _a_ propos- ed junior N.B. —)P.E.1 hockey league: Three’ of the” leading spirits in this movement, how- ever, wefe present “if the per- sons of Charlie Hogan, Grant Grady, and ~ Laysh. Sehurman, and though nothing could be de- cided, jhe project was, pretty thoroughly -discussed. The latest word is that Fredericton” has dropped out of the picture, leav- * ing ‘Saint John, Moncton, Char- lottetown and Summerside.

~The boys here’ in Summerside “geem to look with favor on an Island junior team, with games plaved in Charlottetown and Summerside alternately. They fecl that with the h«st jniors.in the two centres, plus three or four irom ta- some other good Island. juniors that might be picked up, the Is- land could put. together_a team

that would give even the Hali--

fax juniors a run for honors. Fhis team, if formed. might join af’N.B, — P.F.I. league (though only three teams in such a loop would not be too satisfactory) or do as Halifax does, play exhibl- tion games and wait for the

play-offs, Of course, there are a

for such. a league, and if the teams are evenly matched, a lot of interest can be brought back to the softball anes in Summer- side.

™

Sf PE that tee, at’ least,

think would heighten interest in the game would be to have all games scored properly, about once a. week a list.of the tap ten batters: published. Alse

runs, stolen hases, etc. To do this it would be necessary

have three aa four, or even five

official scorers available te take care of double-headers, and ev- enings when some scorers were

not around. We have schools for |

referees, sa¢-why vot a_ school for scorers? It would take only three or four sessions and some

supervision during games, Such. statistics stir up a-lot of inter-

est in the “‘big leagues” so why |

shouldn’t it do the same in our lace leagues.
