MAY" so. .1945

Brighton Horseshoe Club swung mm their. season's activities with l bang on Monday night, the oc- casion being the holding of the opening night's tournament that ‘aw upwards of twenty "shoe toss- ers" take part in matches that, considering for many it was their first start, roduced some great horseshoe phiéhinéigfi. ‘

The layout that greeted the pmycrs also left nothing to be de- sired. Pitching platfonns, pits. lighting and ever thing in con- nection with the cub was in tip- ggp shape and to Jack McCoui-t mg those connected with him must go plenty of credit for the efforts they have expended on the (rounds. a‘ alé

Amw Doyle's capturing of tips tournament came more or less as ,, surprise. Doyle, while far more than an average pitcher was not considered strong enough to take the measure of Len Phillis who was rimner-up to Bill Mur ey last season hr honors.

_ lie iii 9K But] past performances meant scthlng to he smooth-pitching Doyle t from the start o the lnal ma. . I-Iewent into a abort- lved lead on the first coupe of

tosses to the "peg" only to have Phillips overtake hkn, but again accounting for “ringer-s" almost regularly he built up s lead that safely withstood Phillips’ closing drive. a drive that saw the run- ner-up plunk five ringers on In a row only to have Doyle nullify two of them with shoes that curl- ed round tilée $3 akperfectly.

Now that they have made their start and with not a. few of the old members makin their ap- pearance Monda nig t it is fully expected that te different com- petitions that were held last year will shortly get underway. Once’ again a long liet of trophies will be put up or com. tltion and? although the member not as yet up to last y officials are firmly confident that in the space of the next fortnight last year's mark will have] been reached and assigd. _

Possibility of a series of home and home matches between Surn- merside and Charlottetown racq. uet wielders is being visualized on the local tennis front. Still in its formation stage, nevertheless it is rumored that plans are going a- head and it is likely that some. thing definite on the matter will be forthcoming from the head of, the Charlottetown Tennis Club in! the near futige.

Viewed from here the move seems to be an excellent one. m this writer's memory it is e. long time since inter-county matches have taken place and if it does come to a head this season it would no doubt serve to add lots of interest to the game both in Summerside and Charlottetown.

There should be and likely are plenty of capable tennis players n the western capital. Like Charlottetown the game has de- clined more or less ever since war broke out but now with the pic- ture rapidly brightening it is ex- ected that many will be return- ng to the game. and it seems sn opportune moment to arrange the inter-conntymatches that are now being so strolngly, mooted.

There are already M immortals in baseball's Hall of Fame at Cooperstown. N.Y., and the thir- tieth to gain n niche may well be Paul Glee Wancr.

At 4.2 he np- parently has reached the end of is illustrious diamond carcerand. with his baseball days behind him is eligible for a place in the Hall of Fame. That he will be selected seems inevitable.’

Describes Visit To Mount Stewart

(“Leland TraveIIQ" in th-a Halifax Herald.)

Eighteen miles east of Charlotte- Wwn is the village of Mount Stewart. where “The Traveller" en- lbyed a very pleasant sojourn a M" days e80. renewing aoquain/t- ances with many of the villagers, fiven bhgllgh the weather was rather Willi-Ev and damp,

One of the first matte-rs that attracted my alliteration was the fact that street lights had been installed throughout the community. This is a. decided improvement and a val- uable asset, which shows the en- terprising spirit of these residents. and it was entirely own efforts that this additional lighting was secured. I understand that a meeting was called to en- quire into the matter of securing street lights, which resulted in the raising of the necessary funds by popular subscription. Fourteen lights in all have been provided. The people oi’ Mount Stewart deserve a word of commendation for this progressive step and no doubt they die deriving much satisfaction from it

Another worth enterpelse I learned about dur ng my visit. was the staging of a play called "Reedy Made Family," the proceeds of which will also be Used for looal improvements. Around 400 people packed the Canadian legion hall recently to witness the opening of this show. Since then it has played in several nearby centres. % cast is composed of ioozl talent and its members are: Henry Clark, prin- cipal of the Mount Stewart school who directs the shbw, Marjorie Affleck, Elmer Coffin, REBZIe Mac- Donald, who, I believe was one 0f the instiga-tors of this worthwhile venture.

ANNUAL MEETING-

(Contlnued from Page 1) George Bishop, unanimously de- cided to cancel our live fox ex- hibition for which we had made considerable preparation. That it was a deep disappointment to us all must be admitted, but the dan- ger of spreading the dread disease throughout the province was jus- tification for our action. - “The executive committee oi the Association gave considerable thought to the problem of prevent- ing and combating the spread of the distemper. The eity authorities of Summer-side and Charlottetown were contacted with a. view to ob- taining the fullest possible protec- tion to fox ranchers by rigid con- tiol over dogs. This was acted up- on in a very co-o erative way by Sumrnerside author ties but because of the larger population and ex- tent of the city of Charlottetown and its limited police force it was not possible to control and quar- antine all the dogs affected. "The Department of Agriculture was asked to store in this rovince a supply of Green's d temper serum which was done and part of this serum was used in a ranch where there was an outbreak. As no other ranchers desired to use

on hand and considerable mone- tary loss was sustained. It would appear that through the Depart- ment of Agriculture we will have to make some specific arrange- ments whereby Dr. Green's serum can be quickly obtained or a supply kept on hand_which can be ex- changed from time to time. It is a matter for congratulation that a very small proportion of the fox population of our Island was af- fected with dlstemper although the disease.did spread to dogs in var- ious hamlets.
