THE GUARDIAN? CHARLOTTETOWN 1949 MAY 17. Local baseball in its ccmpetltlve field is making its first move to- wards getting rolling for the sea- son. The first in the minor ranks to get underway was the Queen Square School League which com- menced here on Monday when the Hawks took a close 12-11 decision Over the Dodgers in their league opener. O O O Although no starting dates in regular scheduled play in the sen- ior ranks has been announced yet. the Charlottetown Abegweits and the suitnmerside Curran and Briggs squad, the two Island entries in the Maritime Border Bass-ball League. will open hostilities this evening at sui-nmerside when thew meet in an exhibition tilt at 5:30. - o e The midget ban'am and juvenile teams are gradually being moldml into shape under the direction of the Department of Physical Fit- ness, and according to reports yes- terday, are planning on getting things really organized by early next week in preparation for the opening of their various leagues. e e e As far as can be learned at the moment. the City Junior Baseball League is planning on getting its regular schedule underway on or about June the sixth. but in the meantime, all three entries, Knights of Columbus, Charlotte- town Vlctorias and Charlottetown Kinsmen, are getting in their reg- ular practice sessions. O O O The Department of Physical Fit- ness are putting the finishing touches to their pro-season re- conditioning of the Memorial Field at Victoria Park, and during yes- terday workmen were busily engag- ed with brush and paint giving the bleachers a new coat of paint and had the Job about two-thirds com- pleted last evening. They have already done a fiine job on the ball diamond and track and with the excemion oif a few small jobs still left to be done, everything is pretty well in readiness to handle this summer's sporting activities there. O O O "Canada. has Do-nlnion champ- ionship tournaments or playoffs for hockey, tennis, badtetiball and even lacrosse." states a recent Re- gina. report "but the sport with the most participants has never been able to anounce an official Canad- ian cham/pion. Five-pin bowling leads all other sports in number of actual players but east and west loeglen can't seem to reach a solution. O O O “The 1049 Western Canada five- pin bowling tournament was ra- cently held in Saskatoon" contin- ues the report "and its success prompted Cam (Saskatoon Star- Phoenix) McKenzie to bccnoan the lack of an all-Canada affair." "At the moment the east and Wat use different methods of counting and until they can get together on a standard set of rules, the Canadian championship proper will not take place," Cam wrote. O O O "Down East they stage what is termed "Canadian Championships" but seldom is there a western ent- ry. Out here they could fuat as well call their tournament the Canadian championships. But the West will not go that far. Out here they choose m plby for Just the plain Western championship, all the time hoping thiey sometime can get to- gether with the East and hold am official Canadian‘ mfet. " While on the subject of bowling. candle-pins this time. the two_C’har- lottetown teams. rerreflefltlna the Province in their bid for N S. and N.'B.-l?JE I. titles. have made a good showing in their opening day of play.

A two- run homer by Vern Stephens in ‘ the eighth inning gave the Red ' Sox the victory. It was Stephens‘ ninth of the year. Three night games were schedul- ed in the American League. r Left handed Mei Parnell, Boston's only consistent pitcher, won hi! - fifth victory. The Bostonian: couldn't do much with Chicago's Randy Gumpert. but managed to use their eight hits in more timely fashion. New York Yankees collected l5 singles and a home run but had to battle all the way before beating Cleveland Indians 4-3 before '73,- 150 fans, largest crowd of the sea- son at Yankee Stadium. Ed LOPM yielded seven hits. in- eluding homers by Larry Doby and Mickey Vernon in posting his fourth victory of an unbeaten sea- son. Rookie southpaw A-lex Kelllner won his third relief pitching vic- tory in four games when he hurled Philadelphia to 9-2 triumph over St. Louis Browns. Hank Madeskl supplied the batting punch, driving in five runs. Demit Tigers capitalized on the wildness of Waite-r Maa-terson and Forrest Thompson to score four runs in the last two innings and defeat Washington Senators 4-2. Johnny Liptcnk single with the bases loaded in the ninth gave the Tigers their margin of victory Indoor Rifle Shooting The civilian branch of the 17th Reece small bore rifle club held their final shoot of the season on Tuesday night last after a auc- cessful winter.

Snort Echoes From \ Prince Bounty The Maritime Border "Senior B" League la in great danger of being a. still-born baby if the main- land teams who were supposed to be a part of the scheme do not wake up and show a \ lot more enthusiasm about the idea. When a centre like Amherst doesn't even" bother to have representatives at a meeting held right in their town, and a meeting which Island repre- sentatives were put to considerable expense to attend. it looks as if Charlottetown and Bummeraidc may as well forget about main- land competition. at least in lea- Bllfl play. and try to work up a league within the confines of their own shores. s It might be just as well to stick to the intermediate division, as all the mainland teams playing the same caliber of ball are apparently under the intermediate banner again this year. 1t is possible a league might be formed among Charlottetown, Sumrnerside and the local R.<C. A. F. nine. If the air- men could muster a little more strength this trio should furnish ball fans some exciting ball games throughout the summer, and to- gether with exhibition games with Harmon Field, and some of the mainland clubs occasionally, make a satisfactory bill-of-fare of base- ball entertainment until the play- offs started ir: the fall. e a Then. of course, there would be the Summerslde Town League which is expected to have a good season again this year, despite the desertion from their ranks of many of the town's classiest ball tosaers. There re still a number of smart ball payers left in that circuit and the class of play may surprise everyone. If the competit- ion is close. that is the main factor to hold the interest of the fans. though sloppy fielding might dis- courage a lot of dyed-in-the-wool fans. Considering the probable per- sonnel of these teams, however, the brand of fielding should still be considerably ahead of the sort dished out in many _of the rural areas. x O O O It is a bit too early "to judge the local airforce baseball talent as yet, but judging from the game lllflyed on Sunday i) is unlikely that any Class "D" or "c" talent. can be found among the new ar- rivals at the port. Most of the boys seemed woefully weak with the willow, and though it is possible they haven't got their "batting eyes" as yet, we doubt if a "murder- ers row" can be assembled from the stickers who have already showed their ‘wares. for the flyers. 'I'hc new Curran d: Briggs base- ball diambnd came in for a lot of complimentary remarks. The level playing surface, the high backstop and the roomy bleachers, only partly erected as yet, should pro- vlde first class accommodation for fans and players alike. A short left field fa about the only fly in the ointment, and that fa not a very serious draw-back. It might he wise to back the home plate nearer to the backstop and thus provide a little more competition for the boys who like to bash the ball into deep left field. Having the backstop close to the catcher is not a serious fault. Many of the city leagues in Toronto play on diamonds where the catchers are only a few yards from the back- stop, and some pretty classy ball is played on those diamonds too. Buddy Rosa: is a product of the Toronto sandlots. O O O Bowling is over for the season and once again the Curran d: OUR aoaaolNo iiousa NEW YORK, May 17-(AP)— Joe DiMaggio, New Yorl: Yankees’ $90,000 bench-warmer, will don a uniform for the first time this season "some time next week," the club announced tonight. In a statement given at the Yankee-Cleveland game, travelling secretary Arthur (Bed) Patterson said that X-raya of DiMaggio’: tender right heel taken earlier in the day were encouraging. “Joe DiMaggids right "heel has been X-rayed by our physicians and a wed enough improvement for Di aggio to give it a try next iveek," Patterson said. "Joe will get in uniform some timg next week and practice with the teat of the team." ‘ ‘ DiMaggio has been out of uni- form since April 12, before the len- son opened, when new painl in his heel, from which a bone spur was removed last November causf ed him to be sidelined. Yankee authorities were unwill- lng to guess when he would be available for duty. However, one official said that recent talk that Joe might be placed on the diu- abled list for 60 days "was ao- sprd." "Who would be foolish enough to put DiMaggio on the Inactive list for 6O days?" he asked. “How do we know that he might be in shape to play 45 of those days?" DiMag was a spectator at to- night's game. He sat on the Yan- kee bench, but Waa drened in civ- ilian clothes. The announcement was made while manager Casey Stengel pondered the question of the play- er llmit. The Yanks must cut four player-a to meet the 25-man limit.
