SPORT ECHOES

'S'side's First Maritime Track Meet Great Success

Summerside's first Maritime In- vitation Track and Field Meet was certainly a very good start, and its success should encourage the Summerslde Rotary Club, the sponsors of the sports fixture to make it an annual affair. We talk- ed to summer visitors who thought the meet, especially the track end oil It. was more than usually thril- 1 ng.

Sandy Patterson came all the way from Boston, Mass. to take part in the meet. He won the discus throw, hurling that partic- ular member of the quoit family a distance of 128 feet. 4 tn.... . ..

Looks as if pole vaulters do I better job away from home. Alfred Groom, young Summerslde vault- er, topped everyone in Antigonish and established a new Maritime record (native). (11 ft. 11 in.) Gerald McDonald of Antigonish, who was heated by Groom in his home town, came to Summerside and won the event. I-Iis jump (ll ft. 6 in.) was a little below the new record but considering the un- familiar terrain was a pretty good effort.

Groom was the only Summo ' ' entry to win points in the meet. He. was. first in the. I20 yard hurdles. second In the pole vault, and third in the Hop Step gnd Jump. Mike Scott. 16 year old youngster from Summcnlde. wha entered the mile run. gave a very good account of himself. Mike hit the stretch in third position but didn't have any kick left. and was passed Just before the finish by Carl Purcell of Halifax. It was the kid's best effort to date. and re- markable considering the fact that

Mike hadn't been training of late. The mile was run in 5.07 2-5 so acott's time would be around 5.11 or 5.12.

John Paul. the veteran distance runner from Rocky Point, was is favorite of the spectators and ran a good race in the 5-mile event, considering his years in the game. Paul finished fifth in a field of six, and was running strong at the finish.

The 120 hurdles was handled In a sort of slap-happy fashion. Weire not familiar with the regulations but were told that a hurdler must not knock down more than two hurdles. One of the finalist had kicked over a half dozen or more, yet because of some kind of an lzreemcnt ,, the participants. was not disqualified, and placed second in the finals. Playing fast and loose with the rules seems to us to be a foolish thing to do. It could lead to charges of discrim- ination and all sorts of disputes....

All in all. however. the meet was well handled. as might be expected with the experienced and com- petent brigarlier, Bill Reid. in con- trol. The starter. Earl Nicholson, who was inadvertently omitted in the list of officials, also did a bang- llp .l0b. and false starts were con spicuous by their absence.

Comeback Of Malpeques. ls Theme Of Rotary Talk

3, 11, Logic, biologist with the Department of Fisheries Research Board. at Elleslie was guest speak- er at the Summerside Rotary Club Tuesday. He gave a very interest- ing address on oysters and their diseases.

Mp, Logic explained that oyst- ers, as well as other fish. have diseases as do warm blooded ani- mals. Up to 1920 the oysters beds on the Atlantic coast were com- F arltively free from disease and

ge quantities were taken by the various farmers and fsihermen in tli.-lr local areas.

About 35 years ago a serious disease struck the beds, which for the lack of- a better name has since been known as the "Maine- que" disease. It wiped out be- tween 90 and 95 per cent of all the oysters in the beds and was highly contagious. Since then the beds have been making a come back so that by 1953 they were nearly back to normal.

In that year the production of the three Maritime Provinces was in the ratio of: Prince Edward Island 2119, Nova Scotia 1. and New Brunswick 5. After the second outbreak in 1953, the beds in Nova Scotla and New Brunswick were seriously affected so last year llle ratio was Prince Edward Island 20. to in Nova Scotia and New Brunswic 1.

While t e total value of the oy-

ster catch is comparlttvely small in relation to the other fishing in. dustries, approximately 500,000 to the fishermen, the catch is very important to those living in the area and amounts to a large per. centnge of their income.

Research is continuing at the station at Ellerslie and while it has not been proven that a rem- Edy has been found, it is likely that present research "has the cause and will be.able ion effect a cure within the next few years, The difficulty in cleaning up the disease lies in that facr that it is almost impossible to isolate it and the present outbreaks in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia may lll' may not be the same as af- fected the lllalpeque area some years ago.

The Speaker was introduced by Rmarlall R93 Ellis. and thanked by Presldelll Vautlhan Groom.

Visitors to the club were Rot. arians Wesley Freeland of Brown- bU,1'E.VP.Q. and Dave Elfman of Wilmington, Ilia ss., Additional Kllesis were Frank Presslnis of Stoneham. Mass. and Albert Huest is of tsummerside.
