The program is an ambitions one but it is also one deserving of all porssilile support. Such a. playground \‘.'(J.ll(l benefit the youth of the city considerably and it is to be hoped that the Grads will realize their aim.

A riiaciliiiccnt development hLtfi been the ray all of the teams have been forced into a lot. of extra-inn- lni: gnntes. The Tigers, for instance, played five overtime engagements in a roiv recently. It indicates that e outfit yet allows clear su- vy over the ficlci. Even the r . considered trams can be forced into corners and made to fight for all they can get.

Some of the high riders of i942 may play twice the number of extra lnnitig games as formerly and proli- ably will be saddled with a 20 per- cent increase in the number of doubieheadcrs its Sundays are now looming more largely as the only salvation. The customers seem to have too many more important things to do to turn out on week days.

As 2i result a strain will be felt by the pitching staffs. Many of last year's prominent starters have ai- rciidy learned that it is difficult to maintain an uninterrupted winning pace because they lack the former slick infield support behind them and the old time slugging to pull them through ‘in ‘tho late innings.

a

With so many of the recognized lccs of the past in the armed ser- vices. a gap is twrcated and some cf inc laciter pitchers are feeling it most of all.

I

A season of fine opportunities for relief pitchers may develop as a result. Johnny Murphy. the Yankee fireman, is an instance of this and. as many observers point out. the ‘Yanks would not have started on their first invasion oi the eastern 0nd of the circuit in first place had it not lice-n for the excellence of his relief work.

Then. too. there is Roger Wolff of the Athletics. He's toiled in more games than any other pitcher in the league and. as a relief artist has been oi invaluable aid to his team.

It may have been that double- header they blcw to the Phillie: '. or perhaps the Chicago .:; looked at the standing and (iizcwvcrcd they had won only ‘l 0f 2i; gamcs~but something has cliaiigcr their position on the Lou Novikoif problem.

- ¢ ~

Lou, the Mad Russian who was one of the Cubs‘ two 30C hitters last season. is» about to bc wtcoirierl back into the Wrigley rneriiigcrie. He has been ignored for two months by Manager Jimmy Gallagher be» cause he returned an offer of S6,- 500 and asked lUl‘ $10,000.

Any mention oi Novikoff brought the rejoinder that the Sliiv oiltficldcr wasn't needed: that he lost about. as many games by his weird field ing as lie won with liis bludgeon.

- v -

Gallagher sa id no National League club would do business wltli the Cubs on a Novlkoff tratic because the Chicago team wanted i1 right handed hitting outfield. Novlkoff, “i110 bat; right-handed. took another look at the Chicago batting river- ages. He noted that. none oi the outfielders was hitting .300; that only infieldcrs Stan Hack and Ed Stanley were up that high-

While Novikoif was holding out he got his suspension noticc—for failure to report t0 days lifter the reason started. Somebody told liini he waant allowed to play semi-pro ball while under silspension. so he ave it up and coached his team rom the bench.‘

Maybe the Cube don't need thc colorful Lou. Admittedly. ho lant o. Tris S aker. But he occasionally gets hoi of a brill and drives it rm . “n, w distant. parts. 1f some- body doesn't ctart doing that iiouii the Cuba may clinch loot vlflfie m mid-season.

In September, i942. a vary suc- cessful 0on1 maintenance cam- paign was curled on olntiy with the Salvation Army, w on a. total of over $11,000 was subscribed.

There has been a marked do- creaac in membership this your, owing to tlio fact that prior to llbbrunry there were no bo l‘ class on, its Mr. Morris woe await rig word

vices. and therefore did not start classes, not knowing whether it would be possible to cari- them through the your. The I 1s’ and adult memberships for the year have been about on a pai- with previous years.

Many organizations have made use of the building during the year for meetings. such as the temper- ance federation, the Charlottetown male chorus, fire insurance under- writers. etc.

During the Red Cross campaign all gymnasium classes and groups were discontinued for three days, and the gymnasium turned over to the Red Cross campaign committee for suppers, which wove in charge o! the Charlottetown detachment of tho Red Cross corps.‘

g the summer of i942 the bowling alloys were repaired and renovated, and many favourable comments were received from the several bowling leagues using the alleys durlii the whiter months.

Free mem _ i-ship privileges are still extended w the members of tho armed forces. Any who wished received free showers, with bowel and sow Drovidod. They were also given special rates on all table games and bowling. Twice each week the riavy have mode use of the gymnasium for physical training and basketball, and frequently for boxing workouts. Many from all services avail themselves of the use of the reading and wrltin room which is maintained by t e Y's Men's Club, with free stationery provided by the National War Ser- vces.

The Saturday night hostess house parties are greatly on oyed. During the month: from ocember to March the gymnasium was closed for this piir e by order of tlie City Council cause of fir-ca in Bos- mn and 8t. John's, Nfld. with a great loss of life. During this time we carried on under difficulties. dancing in the social room, which of course would not accommodate very many. After the building of the new fire escape, as mentioned in the president's report. large crowds again enjoyed the Saturday night parties, when free lunches are prepared and served by a com- mittee of willing women who give their time every Saturday evening. Each Saturday evening the tab.e games and bowling alio ii are kc t frelc for the use o! t e men un
