. go , and don bridges falling down. Baseball and softball meet- ings have been held in Sum- m'erside, and although the fields at Queen Elizabeth Park are still “diamonds in the gh", they are improving every day. Also, a ellow might go out to the local golf ' rse and dabble in a little golf. All he’d need is a pion- eering spirit, a fanatical love

of the game. and hip- rubber boots. This situation is also improving, however, and it

won't be long before No. 3 fair- way will emerge like Mt. Ar- arat, and the little white ball chaser: will be at it again.

Baseball is at a critical stage in Summerside this rn It may be rejuvenated and go on to achieve the heights of its hey- day, some fifteen years ago. or it may take the plunge to obliv- ion. There were only two teams showing a willingness to enter this year's league, though it takes only

a d a two to tango

RT ECHOES

Boll Meets Held

you need a minimum of three to conduct a successful baseball league. Adding a team that didn’t measure up in ability wouldn‘t help very much. Last with the airforce mak- ing it a threesome, and t

teams fairly evenly matched, it still wasn't what even an optim- ist could call a smashing suc- cess. Anyone selling peanuts and crackerjacks in the stands any evening of a game in the regular season last year would have had to eat most of the stuff

himself.

That reminds us— llas any- one ever tried sellin fee at these gam been much colder watching ball games in June than we ever were watching a hockey match. Maybe it was because we used to leave our red ﬂan- nels and ear muffs at home. and you can’t do that in a typ- ical June evening on Prince Edward Isl . The coolness of our July and August even- ings is the tourist’s delight, and you can put that in y our tourist circulars. but June-— what is so rare as a day in June—, Si, but after supper — Brrrr!

This is suppoSed to be a sports column, not a weather report, so where were we? , yes. baseball. The joining up of Char- lottetown and S u m m erside teams in a league may be the solution to our troubles, and theirs. We understand there are no line-ups at the ticket office in Charlottetown for those regu- lar league games either. When Charlottetown and Summerside play each other at anything, it raises he---- eated remarks in the council rooms. sarcasm in the sports columns, and among the fans the spirit of insult runs high— but at least there a r fans. 50, how about it, you sub- urb of Southport residents.
