through the entire schedule.

So far Milwaukee Braves, San Francisco Giants, ‘Los “Angeles. Dodgers and Cincinnati Redlegs have been waging a terrific struggle for supremacy. Nobody seems to stay-on top any more than one day at a time\ Just when it might appear that a certain club is going ‘to do the league leading for any length of time, along comes one of the other ambitious clubs and knocks them from their lofty perch.

. IF THIS KIND of a battle does continue, the turnstiles\ will eally click in’ the balleparks of the contending teams. If three or four clubs could enter September pretty well bunched, then the final month’s play woulg be really something.

Looking at the four clubs we mentioned. above, and add to these those Pittsburgh Pirates, it’s not too hard to imagine a really great race to the wire in this 1959 season. San Francisco and Los Angeles are playing heads-up ball and have their supporters taking world series already. Both the Dodgers and Giants have pretty fair pitching staffs and #@ lot of fellows who love to clout the ball. The Redlegs have been showing more power than any team in the National and if they can get fair pitching they'll be mighty tough.

Councillor Gerald Foster was elected honorary president of the City Softball League at a meet-

| inng held last evening.

Elected president was ;Charies P. MacKenzie, former officer commanding H.M.C.S. Queen Charlotte. George Gregory,‘ well- known Charlottetown sportsman,

was elected vice-president. Har-|-

old Power was named secretary- treasurer. He was also on the executive last season, in the same position.

Yes, there’s every indication that this season’s National League

THESE WASHINGTON SENATORS are playing heads-up ball and giving everybody with pennant ambitions a hard time. The ee are supposed to be an outfit that everybody can treat

‘cousins’. So far this season they have been acting like real | a3

hemntatx shouting defiance at everyone they encounter.

Tuesday afternoon five of their players were victims of the! “flu. With the Yimited talent they are supposed to possess, you would noturally expect the Senators to be easy victims for any team. That afternoon they met the Chicago White Sox with Billy

Pierce doing the hurling for the Al Lopez gang. With a patched-up

team they beat the Pale Hose 83 and hard-luck Chuck Stobbs picked up the win.

However there are a couple of young men on the Washington lineup that are really clouting the ball. Harm Killebrew smashed his eighth homer that afternoon ‘tops in the majors) and Jim Lemon his seventh. Lemon's power is not too surprising but Kille- 5 brew was never expected to be up to such tricks.
