Annual Meeting Of A _ Abegweit Athletic .Ass’n

phases of sport. ' Pmaidenfs Report

Opening his annual report, Pre- sident Turner said “another splen- did year has passed into athletic history and the Abegweit Club is proud that it has made a sub- stantial contribution to that re- cord, The aim of this Association is to foster and promote amateur sport in every possible way." Ec- vicwing the various fields of activi- tics throughout the year, he ex- tended his thanks and apprecia- tion to the various chairmen and their committees for the excellent way they carried out their duties and the successes attending their efforts

He also paid respect and tri- bute to three members of the club who have passed on to greater re- wards during the year, in which he said:-"Whlle we had our per- iods of joy and satisfaction, we also had our moments of sorrow. We mourn the sudden passing of two of our directors: Smauel F. Doyle, for many years recognized as the very symbol of athletics and good sportsmanship in this Province and indeed throughout ihc lvlaritinics. a man \\'ho made a great contribution by precept and example to athletics in their truest and finest form; and Ray MacDonald, our secretary, quiet, retiring, but efficient, one whose heart was in the promotion of athletics and who gave of his time and talents unstintingly toward that end. We mourn the recent dcaih of a great supporter of this club. Major H. L. Bethune. In speaking at the annual meeting just a year ago, Major Bethune said “Play lhe game, boys, give of your best, you will enjoy it and so will many others." In his life, he gave of his best. and in his death. we honor him for his no- ble example.

Other Reports

Other excellent and precise re- ports were given by George Wal- tors on track and field, football by .l. W. F. McCallum. hockey by W. E. Scantlebtiry. and Jackie Kane, bayball by George Francis and basketball by W. E. Scantiebtlry. while Treasurer W. E. lVlassey gave a detailed and favourable report on finance and membership, which he said was 45 members over last year.

Mr. Francis reported a highly successful baseball season and re- gretted that his health would not permit him to carry on actively in that department again this year, the statement being received with misgivings by the general mer‘, ing, who congratulated him for the fine work he has clone in the past num-ber of years.

Mr. Walters also gave a highly commendable report on the sea- son‘s track and field activities, in which he pointed out that in the four Maritime mccis this year ‘the Aibbie team amassed a total of 203 points. more than any other club competing. Referring to the La- bor Day Meet here, Mr. Walters said, “It is interesting to note that the Albhies hold eleven re- cords in the fifteen senior events of this meet.”

Many other speakers were also heard at the meeting, including Brigadier W. W. Reid, Director of Phvsical Fitness, J. W. F. Mc- Callum, LL-Col. W. J. MacDonald, Gordon Bennett and Everett Cut- cliffe, who all made many con- gratulatory remarks on behalf of the fine work being carried on by the Abbie Club and also made some helpful and commendable suggestions for the future activ- ities and. betterment of sport as a wrnle

The members of the press were also the receivers of kind and ap- preciative thanks and applzciation from the various speakers, for their part in helping to further the cause and interest of sporting activities throughout the past year.

THE GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN

NOVEMBER 17, 1949

It is surprising just how quickly a difficult situation can be ovcr-

come and obstacles surmounted

when those who are concerned with the situation are all brought tolgc- ther under one roof with the de- termined object of discussing the thing in a down-to-earth manner and arriving at a satisfactory sol- ution to the mutual advantage of all - as was the case in the lmc- key meeting held at Sununerside on Tuesday night.

O I O

Representatives attended from the Charlottetown Abegweit and Victoria Amateur Athletic Associa- tions, Saint Dunstatfs University. Prince of Wales College. Summer- side Crystals and R.C.A.F. clubs. as well as other representatives, in- cluding the M.A.H.A. and the Dc- partment of Physical Fitness, who independently had all been loco-o with the same problem of "Whal- are we to have in the way of a hockey program here this wlntcl and what leagues and teams will comprise it." They had been trying to solve it in independent groups with little result. and sensibly got together at Summerside to poo! their ideas and resources, out of which has come the newly formed Island Physical Fitness Intermed- iate "A" Hockey League.

O I O O '

From this writer's point of view. it has made a definite change for the better in the hockey situa- tion on the Island, in that all our best teams can now concentrate their efforts and activities in one mutual league instead of particip- ating in two possible separate leagues wherein their forces are split and tend to function at cross- purposes with one another. Which bears out that wise adage of "Un- ited we stand - Divided we fall".

o o o o

Although it means that the for- mer City Hockcy League, which has stood as the symbol of hockey here for the past ten years. is no more, it goes out in name only. and develops from what has been commonly known as an "Outlaw League" to one of organized and registered hockey, which is bound to demand more respect and ccr- talnly more advantages.

o o o o

Advantages that this new leigiic formation will bring about, as we see it at the moment, will be the fact that in addition to having all the same players and teams that composed the City League, it wlil be strengthened by the entry of two other teams, making it. a six- team league instead of four. With all the best hockey ability that the Province has at its disposal, the playing strength of this Leagle should certainly tend to make it not. only a. bigger league but. also a better one.

O O O O

It also means that the best teak-l in the league will be able to con- tinue on to even bigger accomp- lishments, because as a registered club. it will be able to compete for M-arltime and Dominion Intermed- iate hockey honors, something that was definitely out of the qucsfﬁon as a winner of an unregistered team competing in a more or less “outlaw league,"

o o o -

From a financial and overall fan attendance point of view, it should also prove a profitable change, an the rink managements will not only have a well organized league body to deal ivlth. the best offic- ials from both the former Clix: League and the individual C1T-s4‘ but will nlso get the benefit of the attendance, support and intere<t oi‘ the followers of all six teams con- centrated on one spmific leazuc. which will no doubt make for bi;- ger crowds. and consequently big- ger revenue.

a . o -

As far as this oolumn is con- cerned, we feel that the best pos- sible move towards the betterment of the hockey situation here has

been made and will be looking for-

Tempers Flare As Dal. Defeats Truro Ruggers 9-0

TRURO, N.S., Nov. i6 — (CP) — In a wil-d, free-swinging donny- brook here today Dalhousie Uni- versity ripped across three first- half tries to push past Truro 9-0 into the second round of Mc-Curdy Cup English rugby play.

Dalhousie now meets Glace Bay Legionaires here Saturday with the winner journeying to Wolf- vilie next Wednesday to meet Acadia for the historic mug, em- blematic of Maritime rugby su- premacy. l

From the outset of the game tempers flared and players swung fisiis whenever referee Waldo Goodman of New ‘Glasgow turn- cd his back. Then, with three minutes to go to game's end and Gordie MacCoy. Dal standoff, stopped on the goal line after a 15-yard run, the fireworks began.

Murray Joseph. Truro forward, smashed into Tiger scrumman Willie Archibald and began lash- ing his fists to the Halifax play- er‘s head. Laphen of Dalhousie and Lucky Abraham, playing full- back for Truro, squared off while other players wrestled on the turf as the crowd milled onto the field.

When order had been restored more than l5 minutes later, re- fcrcc Goodman banished Archi- bald and Murray Joseph from the contest.

A prelude to the main bout oc- curred a few minutes before the fight when a Truro substitute tore off one of his boots and raced from tho sidelines to attack Dal- housie captain Foo Grant.

The game itself featured a smoothly — functioning Dalhousie backfield and a powerful Truro SCTilllL Dalhousic‘: tries all came in the first half with MacCay, Delory and Grant scoring in that order. All three kicks for goal missed their mark.

ward to a hockey season that will he the best the Province has tc offer in its present position, and one that should and we hope will, be to the mutual benefit and sat- isfaction of all concerned.

Among those eagerly awaiting the showing of the "Great Dan Patch" at the Prince Edward today is Mr, Thomas Horgan. 2i Longworth Street, who saw the great pacer race as four-ycar-old ln Cleveland, Ohio in 1902.

Mr. Horgan saw Dan Patch per- form at the Gienville Track one July day 47 years ago. He recalls that the class was very big but the race just looked like a \vork- out for the famous pacer.

He thought that Milan Mclnley was the driver and remembered that the driver kept looking back at the horses vainly trying to catch him.
