Tu:-sulay. Aug. 7, I956 IN THIS CORNER 1956 A Tough Season For Abegweit Athletic Club Local baseball officials are fast E" I becoming the hard-luck guys of Maritime baseball this year. Three times so far they have devised methods of making a few dollars for the .Abegweil Athletic Club to help degray at least part of the expenses in operating the City Lea gue under lights and three times their well-iaaid plans have blown up in their faces. The first blow-up came when the Philadelphia All- Stars failed to show up here and set up a chain of inquiries which have brought to surface s story veiled in deep, dark mystery. Last Friday night a world famed R. C. A. F. Band from Ottawa was here Ind ready to toot an their flutcs when a steady downpour of rain washed out the concert, the ball game that was to follow and al- most drowned a few optimistic fans who believed the weather re- ports and were at. Memorial Field party to get the best seats. The Coolest blow of all took place on Sunday when Spring- hill. team that took the offensive - in arranging a game here. found atthe last minute they had to any someplace else. That left a Abbie: treading on limbs of even smaller dimension than those perched upon earlier. At the moment at least we have no way of knowing whether or not Sprlnghlll knew on Thursday a playoff was scheduled for the weekend but we do know that the Fencebusters and Memram- cook played a playoff double- header .on Saturday and the game Sunday was forced when split the two games. It seems fairly obvious that they must have known about the weekend playoff sometime before Satur- day night when they phoned Geo rge Francis In Charlottetown. Nevertheless. fearfully bloody but still manfully unbowed. the Abblcs are having another crack at this exhibition ame business. In the very near lure they hope to have a team from Fredericton put in an ap- pearance here. While waiting they say that anyone still holding a tick- et to the first disaster may get their money back at the Memorial Field box office any night from 0 until 9 pm. or use the ticket for any game whaisocvr-r at Mem- orial Field bo it a regularly sched- uled City League lzamc, a playoff arm or an exhibition name any- me, between now and when the cooler 'weather drives us all to coonskin coats. thcrmoses of cor- fee and football games. With so many Island sport champions crowned over the 3 weekend we would like to spread with their heads- the hack. First to Mrs. Fred (Mickey) Cannon who dethroned Blanche llogg of Summerslde as the Island .-lmatcur Lady Golf Champion. Mrs. Cannon had to come from a 5-stroke defecit to tie Miss Hog: after 36 holes. The Charlottetown Indy won it in overtime. Don MacDonald who topped the men's division of the same tournament deserves con- gratulntions on winning his first big tournament. Other deserving champs are Paul Kaye (Island tennis champ), Mrs. Elizabeth Willett (Island Ladies champ), Andy Anderson and Jimmy John ston (Men's doubles champs). Wanda Maclllllan and Marj Jar- dlne (ladies doubles titalists) and Mrs. Wtllett and Bud Mat-Aleer who teamed up earlier in the tournament to take the mixed doubles. One of the island's most ver- satile athletes. Davo Macl-ieod. pay ed a visit to the Island over the weekend and while here found a little time to compete in the High- land Games in Charlottetown. Dave. who was a great outfield-tr with the Stars of the City Base- ball Leanne last summer. a top performer with Montague Prim- roses in the island Hockey League last winter and perhaps the out- standing player on the Maritime champion and Mr-Ctlrdy Cup win- hing Nomads football team of last fall, is a student naval cadet stat- ioned at Stadacnns for this summer The young athlete was telling us best of shape this year. As a re- sult he hasn't been entering many track and field mccts. About his only outing of the season was a Antigonish during its Highland Games. - Here are some tld-hits we have picked up recently: If you ask Vern Ilandrahan. Charlotte- iown's top baseball performer this year. who gives him the most trouble at the platte. .VtIII may be surprised as his answer. He will tell you his nemesis is none other than Grant Grady of the Summcrslde Pontincs. Vern says that no matter where he throws to Grady the young fel- low always manages to get a good chunk of wood on It. Tom Marl-larlano was telling us the other night that in a couple of years two of the Island's ht-st ball players will be outfielder Lorne MacGuIgnn and his rookie iunlor pitcher Robby Simmons ...... ..T)n yoll know that the in- termediate Abbi:-s havn't beaten the Junior Ahhlrs in two years ........They have only faced each other four times in that period I few handshakes and pair on but the Juniors have won them all.

' Semi-finals last evening by shad- ing the Abbles in a brilliant pitch- ing duel at Parkdule 3-1. Rival pitchers Henry Hal-linger of the Lions and Charlie Ballem of the Abbies were the two big stars of the game is Ballem suf- fered a heartbreaking loss despite hurling a tremendous 2-hitter and llarttnger won the contest with a 5-hitter. Except for a had first inning when the Lions pushed across all three of their runs Ballem was untouchable and 'after the first he set down Barry's crew with one hit over 5 innings. An error. walk. single, sacrifice fly and a steal of home provide the Lions with their winning mar- gin in the first. - Dul'ing the entire game only Mike Connolly and Duke MacCal- Ium were able to gel. to Bsllem for bits. Both were singles. Ballem gave up only 1 walk to the Lions while Hartinger didn't walk a batter. Both teams made four miscues. It was the result of three Lion errors that gave the Abhles their only run in the top of the sixth. Vern Blanchard with a double and single led the losers at the plate. Jack llennesssy. George Schleyer and Elmer Mahar got the others, all singles. The Lions need only one more victory to wrap up the beam!- five series and advance to the fi- nals against the winner of the B.Y.C. - B.I.S. series.
