‘PAGE EIGHT

Sport Echoes from Prince County

Our Summerside Kinsmen Jun- tors have eliminated their brother Kinsmen in Charlottetown and are nc-w looking for other worlds to conquer. We have been informed that they will next take on the St. John C.Y.O. team who have wop the Cllamplmliillp of New Bruns- wick in the junior division. The boys are naturally delighted with the acquisition of the Island title and the Smaliman Cup that goes with it. and local fans will be eager to see hc-w they shape up against mainland junior aggregations.

They have two promising young pitchers In Gay and Stewart and considerable power in their batting order. much more than they were able to show against the top notch pitching they faced all summer in me summerslde Town League. To the unobservant fan they may have looked pretty weak with the willow during the league games, but against lllnior pitching they get their fair share of base-hits. Their present infield of oatway. Landry- MacKny and Gregg seems I0 be the best combination they have tried all summer.

The intermediate series is still anybcdyb championship, During exhibition games the boys had con- tracted the habit of whaling the everlasting daylights out of the other team right in, the unfortun- ate victim's own bark yard wlhich was rather a tough break for the home to-wn cheering sections. but new that the chips are really down, the teams are beginning to wage much closer struggles. though still giving the loyal home fan litte to cheer about. It looks right new as if the first team who is able to win a game 1n its own bailiwick may go on to win the crown.

We think the M.A.A.U. officials did the right (hing in lifting the suspension c-n those athletes who had played "shamateur" hockey last year. Ruling those b'oys out didn't look fair anyway we looked at it. The Charlottetown boys won their game in Summerside Wednes- day chiefly because of the steady fielding‘ and timely hitting of Buck Wh'itlock. but that's all right with us too. Naturally we wanted to see the home boys win. but not at the expense of those players who have every right to participate in sm- ateur ball. Whitlock is a fine ball player. We enjoy vcrv much watch- ing him in action. After all, victory is not every-thing.

In answer _to an enquiry we had a long letter from Elmer Ferguson recently. His views on amateurs are pretty much in line Wit-h 01-h"

but in the last few strides Lucky Pal paid ofl by getting his head out in front.

Third Heat: As a closing thrill the fans saw a thrilling four- horse finish with Bonnie Dale accounting for her victory as she came through in the last few strides to nose out Luckys Pal as Jenie Kalmuck came in on the rail to beat out Miss Brewer for third place.

It was a case of leading from wire to wire as Donald G. won the second heat and his superior pacing ability again asserted it- self in the third mile as he took over the lead at the halfway mark and then staved ofi the fast clos- ing drive of Marjorie Hal in the stretch as the latter mare came from far back to race into the contending position.

It has been a good many years since an Island series has stirred up as much competition as this present one has and it speaks well for the comeback baseball has made in the past few seasons in both centres. It has been a tough task getting the game back on solid footing and it is now being fully expected that within a couple of seasons both Summciside and Charlottetown will he able to offer plenty competition in senior ranks.
