Two points in evidence: There once was a junior aggregation - the Kinsmen '- in the Charlottetown league some years ago under Ev MacNeil. This nine dropped its two opening games of-the sea. son by scores of, 21-1 and 154). By the time the season ended tins squad came just about as close .as- any team ever has of viii-BM a title without doing so. Fans will remember this final iseries’lilo tween the Kinsmen and 17th RECCE as one of the most thrilling ever-played here. ‘ ., . g ' ‘
Point two - Junior Vic: some time ago were trailing, 970' in the latest innings of a ball game..Through commendable, hustle and tifne— ly hits" they tied. the tilt». They lost it. in the 10th inning, ~' 10.9, but theodoesn‘t make a shred of difference. ’ g
The point is this Kinsmenwnine' was loutgunned for Sure and drought to be outclassed by the RECCE which sported names like Eddie Lund, Glen Matheson, Jack Ready, Phil Murphy on itsroster. But diligent practice and real old time hustle made it into a solid contender.. , _ -
Of‘course, one outing doesn‘t mean much. Little can be learn- ed from a two and one-half inning .game. Perhaps it would be a better idea to have the two, clubs tangle on a Sunday or Saturday afternoon. We think the number of fans that would turn out for the game would be surprising. ’
, There is little doubt though, that before the season is over both teams will be hustling with the best of them. Brian Lewishcoach of the Legion, was noted for his drive and spirit ‘while playing here and some of it should easily rub off on his charges.
The Charlottetown squad has a solid nucleus of a team in short- stop Jack Kane, second baseman Bobby Lund lefthander pitcher Roger MacLeod, youngest of the MacLeod family that sent Don and Dave‘to Boston University, and Wayne MacDonald. The other players - with the exception of Harry Callaghan, who played with the Dodgers of the City league, are more or less newcomers.
Coach Lewis is hoping for additional exhibition games before playoff time. Moncton has been cited. aspossible opposition, al- though nothing definite has been done in that direction yet.

Now we have a new angle for the one-year plunge of Los Ange- ,ch Dodgers from a contender to an also ran. Vice-President Buzz Bavasi claims he and Walt Alston made a mistake by bringing the “old players” to L. A. ‘ .
Bavasi has been quoted as saying: “We should have come West with a new, young sqdad, but Walt Alston and I agreed to bring out the older name players to California.
“We felt our new fans would want to see the men they’d been -
reading about all these years. We know now that 'we made one big mistake. We should have followed the Gi'ants thinking and gone right into a youth movement. We know that next year we’ll have? to start bringing in the youngsters.”
All of which would seem to take a load off Manager Alston’s back. for Bavasi has accused himself of having a hand in the' Dodgers‘ demise.
It would seem to spike the latest hot rumour that no less a personality than Casey Stengel is Westward bound. If not Casey, then Leo Durocher is‘ being mentioned as a likely successor to A1- ston. But then changes and rumors of changes around the vicinity of a lowly nine are always common. »

Fred Hutchinson. St. Louis Manager: “Stan Musial is the best I've. seen in my 20 years up here. Guys‘ll argue with me and'say Williams, DiMaggio and Mays. What can Williams and Mays do
that he can’t do better? And the same was true of Dimag when he ~
was playing. And don’t forget too - Stan is first, last and always a team player. Can you say the same for Williams and Mays?”
Carl Furillo, Los Angeles Dodgers: “Do you think because we're In the cellar it’s Walt Alston’s fault. He’s just as good a manager today as he was when he won the pennant and World Series for the Dodgers. He Just doesn’t have the players today he had then. It’s as s1mp1e as that. There‘s one basic rule they should take into

can‘t hit for the players, can’t field for ’em, and can‘t pitch for ’em When the players aren’t doing the job, why blame the manager?”
