A large number of school child-

Mr. O'Connor. a man with seven years of scouting experience plus 12 seasons of um- piring, proved that he really knew what he was talking about and during his one day stop here, gave the lads something to think about and many timely tips that will be well remembered by all who at- tended his lectures.

morrow” Bill outlined the im- portance of organizing the young- sters into their own age groups with proper playing facilities and well governed with experienced of- ficials in charge etc. "I am pleas- ed to report." Mr. O'Connor said. "that here in this Province I have found that you are tackling the problem in the right manner un- der the direction of the Depart- ment of Physical Fitness. Such is not the case in some of the other Provinces." I C 0

He referred to other points in the Maritimes where he said "they are bringing in too many imported players to strengthen their teams. That system is all wrong. he said. "because it doesn't give the local players a chance to develop. and in a good many instances home town boys are sitting on the bench that are every bit as good as the imports. and probably bet- ter with the right coaching and experience."

0 O 0

Mr. O'Connor did say. how- ever, that it is good practice to have maybe three or four imports of good calibre an a team to stab- ilize a club with their experience and that those same imports should be utilized during their spare time to coach and guide the youngsters in the minor leagues. which could do much to encourage and assure future development in the community. "Almost any youngster can be a good ball play- er under proper coaching if he has average or better natural abil- ity." he stated, "and any of the major league ball systems are willing to give the ;.'0ungstel's a chance. I know the Dodgers will anyway."

C 0 O

"The Dodgers have been hard hit with the 'draft' as have the other major clubs," Mr. O'Connor stated "Right now the Brooklyn system can use so more players, although the big club itself is in a good pos- ition as far as player strength is concerned. It is the farm clubs who need the material. Most of the Dodgers players are men with pre- vious service and are exempt from the draft."

I I 0

"so you can see." Bill said, "there is a good opportunity for any like- ly youngsters to get a break into the big circuit, we (the Dodgers) are willing to take a chance on them anytime and give..them a test at spring training camps." Mr. O'Connor said that he plans to come back to the Island, and other points in the Marltimee later this summer and have a. look at some of the local products in action.

During yeat'el-a'ay' Bill visited Summerside where he held I sim-

The finals of the Island Senior Hoop League will he an all college affair. Last night the St. Dunstan's basketeers earned the right to meet the P. W. C. quintette in the league windup when they trounced the Bummerside Alrforce 86-54. Their 32-point margin when ad- ded to their ll-point edge from the first game, gives them the two-game total point series 145- 102. The game was well played fer the most part. The Saints employed their usual fast breaking tactics while the Airmen relied on a slower-ball handling game. The I-Iillmen fired a phenomenal, 46 percent of their field attempts alld had 2'1 fouls called against them wih Coyle and Dunphy fouling out. The Fclrco dunked 20 per- cent from the floor, fouling 17 times, losing Horne and MacCaull- ey on personals. Saints were ahead 38-18 at half time.

S. D. U. went to an early lead on the strength of some nice set shots by Kennedy and Mclsaac and did not allow a field goal to be scored until the four-minute mark. "The Birdmen, in fact. looped only four shots from the floor in the initial frame, staying in the running with their accurate foul shots scoring 10 of their 10 attempts.

The .Summerside squad came back stronger in the opening min- utes of the second frame but fell off under the terrific pace set by the Bled-and-Whiteers. They con- tinued to pass the ball well but could not find the range with their field tries. Reardon came back after a slow first half to dunk 15 markers.

Jack Reardon topped the point- getters with 20 with Joe Mullally, : going concern all night. adding

as did tricky Pete Dunphy. Kennedy played well and Mcleaac played good defensive ball.

Babchuk starred for the service squad scoring 15. Home flipped 11 and Button had 9. Mlaccaulley was effective at guard.

Line-ups:

S. D. U.- Reardon 20, Coyle 7. Mullally 17, Dunphy l7, Mclsaac 8, McDonald 5, Ready 2, Kennedy 10-88

(In Final Period To Edge Millionaires 3 - 2

SYDNEY. N.S.. April 16 --(CP) - Valleyfield Braves defeated Sydney Millionaires 3-2 tonight in the opening game of their best- of-seven Alexander Cup semi- finals.

Braves jumped into a 1-0 lead in the opening period but Mil- llomlrs. Maritime champions for the last four years, knotted it before the half-minute mark pf the second.

Second game will be played here tomorrow nllght.

Millionaires went into a tem- porary lead shortly after the half-way mark of the third period but two goals by Braves at 13.24 and 18.56 gave them the win.

Braves upheld all previous re- ports regarding their comeback abilities; by sinking Millionaires before 3,172 spectators.

If Valleyfield adds another vic- lory tomorrow the series will shift to the Montreal Forum for the third game Sunday. If Mil- lionaires square the series, the third game will be played here Saturday.

Outskated and ouilpunched through the second period and most of the third, Braves count- ered with the old play-off savvy to erase a 2-1 Sydney lead in the late minutes of the third period.

Sydney defences, brilliant all night against the veteran but quick--breaking Valleyfield for- wards, were caught off balance on both tallies.

Lineups:
