Local Vicloria Club Considers Baseball Plans

Tho Charlottetown Victoria. Old: made its first step towards becom- ing an active backer in local sport since its re-organlzation meeting last week by’ holding an open base- ball meeting last night at the City Hall. which was largely attended by ball players from intermediate right down to midget ranks.

The meeting, which was presided over by the president, Mr. Byron Brown. was called for the purpose of finding out how many of the local players were interested in turning out with the club teams in the various age groups which they will sponsor in local competition this year, and got away to an en- couraging start when some 30 youngsters maid: temporary regis- try with the Club,

In the opening half of the meet- ing. which was of a business nat- ure. secretary-treasurer Ray Stuli read the minutes of the re-organl- zation meeting, after which Mr. P. A. Murnaghan, chainman of the constitution and by-laws commit- tee, tabled o. proposed constitution drawn up by the committee for the approval of the executive.

The Club proposed 1 to sponsor teams in junior, juvenile, midget. bamam city baseball leagues this summer, and already plans are being drafted to hold a series of in- structional classes for players in all groups until such time as the weather will permit the youngsters to take to the playing fields for regular practice

Fred Whelan and Harry Mc- Innis, both members of the base- ball committee, tho former the chairman, also gave brief reports on their progress so far and Mfr. Mdfnnis also gave the boys s. few hellpflil hints on pro-season train-

g.

Vince "Lefty" McQuald was also added to the already existing base- ball committee and towards the latter part of the evening gave the boys a. brief talk on the funda- mentals otf playing baseball and put on display for their benefit, a ser- ies of pictorial instructions which he had drawn up.

Following the registration period. the meeting was adjourned.

Sports followers here.

especially veterans, learned with regret of the death in Boston, of George Prowse, former outstanding Island athlete before his migration to the U. S. many years ago.

O O

One of the best bicycle riders ever developed in the Maritlmes, his record of 30 seconds for the quarter mile, made in i008, has stood throughout the years while in basketball and hockey he was also an adept performer. - - t

Even when his days of active participation were over George never lost his interest in sports and the sport toggery, the establish-- ment he ran while a resident of the City was usually the scene of many discussions of sports.

O O O Even while far removed from the place of his early triumphs George never lost interest in the doings of the local athletes. He kept right up to date on all activities and on his yearly visits here many the yarn was spun about both old and new perform- ances. . . o And so another strong booster of Island sport departs from the scene. One who performed capably and well in his prime, always proving himself to be a true sports- man and who in the twilight of his career was always ready and wil- ling to lend a hand to the up and coming youngsters of a new era. I O O

To his surviving relatives this column extends its most sincere sympathy.

With little or no activity on the local sporting front at the pre- sent time, nevertheless plans for the forthcoming summer's sports are rolling right along in an effort to get everything in ship-shape for the seasonal openings. Base- ball. of course, which will probably be the first of these to get under- way locally, is the main topic of conversation and plans are being laid by the various groups to get things underway. O O O City Baseball League officials announced yesterday that they will hold their annual meeting this Friday night at the Charlottetown Armourles at 6:30. The meeting had been previously scheduled for last night, but was set back so as not to conflict with the general baseball meeting which was held at the City Hall last evening under the sponsorship of the newly organ- ized Charlottetown Vlctoria Cl-ub.

Just what will come out of the City League meeting this year is hard to say at the moment, al-

quarters that there is s. possibility of this League dropping out of the picture this year due to the lack of sufficient older players to main- taln enough teams, now that it is fairly certain that Charlottetown will be entering a senior team in s Central Section Baseball League with mainland teams, which will 'be , nlored by the Charlottetown Abegwoit Club. O O O

Although this is merely rumor at the moment, it is therefore not tho intention of this column to go into the situation at any length in all fairness to the League itself, who will be dealing with these matters themselves when they are brought up before the meeting. However, it might be well to ment- ion llhEN, that in the event that the League should drop out of operation this year. the general impression that this column has gathered as the result of previous ball meetings so far this season, is that those senior players who will not be connected with the Senior B your?‘ and have been active in City ague ranks, will be formed into an intermediate group which will participate in In Island Intermediate Baseball Lea- gue which will ‘probably come under the supervision of the De- partment of Physical Fitness.

Big Rainbow

Troul Arouses Much lEresi

The S-pound. 2-ounce rainbow trout caught on Saturday morning by Sat. Heath. RCMP. of Sum- merslde at Scales Pond has aroun- ed considerable interest on the subject of rainbow trout. it was explained yesterday by a fish and game authority in Summer-side that about five years ago some rainbow trout were released in this pond on the upper Dunk River and have thrived wonder- fully. At the same time and dur- ing subsequent years speckled trout have also been released.

Fishermen during the last few seasons have been catching num- bers of rainbow trout along with the speckled variety and fish of from three to five pounds have not been unusual. Each year they seem to be getting larger. They have been caught from April 16th onward and no question has been raised about the legality of re- taining them. This authority stat- cd that there are certain pro- tected areas w-here rainbow trout have been released that the sea- son does not open till July 1st, but this h never been consider- ed by fishermen tq apply to Scales Pond-S.
