Hockey Season Arrives;
Still Trying To Play Ball Localiy
Lucknow and Arva are ' still weather, and a trophy at stake,
standing .by waiting 'half decent we think they 6hould.have. been
Weather ''conditions that will let doing • a little "checking"' before..
them play. 'their second ",game' in They perta. inly made no move. to
a, hest -of -three ' series in the semi-
finals. for the W;O ;A.A. :grand.

first•. gene •'a >waels., ago Tuesday,
and. the locals .Must came through
with ',two.' 'strai;.giit• wins • tp stay
• .in. the rnn;ng.: ' ' , ..
The second .game of .the series
was-'; scheduled; for . the. Ailsa..
+Craig': ,.diamond. •. last , Thursday.
The Lucknow :team 'made, the ' 80
mile trip,, "only.'to have •aag. pract-
ically deserted ball . field . greet
them upon arrival. The playing
field Was a "bog". The playing:
lines had not :been put in, •and•
even the playing sacks were net.,
at the field.
The entire Lucknow- team,, de-
spite the. long • trip, were . all in.
the park • by 7.45 for the 8.30
Baine. By 8.15, a.few'of the•Arva.
team, filtered in, 'but the park
was still in darkness except 'for
car, lights.' • Both teams ,agreed'
:that. the , field • was ;in. no con
dition to play_ on, and the Arva
team 'naturally .r blamed • Ailsa
Craig for their laxity in the be-Walk-
ed
e " mat-
t• ,
•
he • iiif%eld could. notwak-
ed ori without sinking deeply and
• coining'\ up ,with 'shoes coated in
• clay. 'After a stroll th'?sough • the.
third -home area; your shoes took
.on the appeararice:.of snowshoes
as' the•diamond' clung to your
feet.
Despite•. this; "a director of the
Association, .we are; told,•: inform-
ed' the Wingliam office ,the .fol -
'lowing day ' that 'the. field. 'could
'have been :put in shape: Eby• some
Sawdust sprinkled in the right
places ' .
The 'field, possibly COULD.
have; . been put in 'shape if :the •
ones responsible had worked on
it • in the . afternoon,'.but 'isn't 9.00_
p.m. a little late:in starting• to
get a :diamond ready to: play on?
The .blame is: not entirely . that
of Ailsa Craig's. It was ' Arva's
home game in 'a: chani.pionship
series, , and with . the recent ' wet
correct the , sr uation: when they
'saw: the condition of the' playing
field: , ' •
• But wlhat about the next game!
Axva were quite willing oto Pay
Lucknow were,
and 'play the
game . baclf in the Sepoy ,ViI[age;
This'' was also: the • decision `o,f
the W-b.A A..:Arva '. didn't .have'
enough ' fans at the :Ailsa'' Craig
game • to.' pay for the balls, . let
alone the umpires and park,. Nat
urally, they were glad to come
to- Lucknow;, havirig seen the
good crowds 'that have been at=
tending, and the, leagye ,seemed
glad to send them. They would
,naturallyget a cut of ' the gate
of the game.'
-Sere it' is in the, last' week of
October, and: the W.O.A.A.1 are..
again trying to settle - a champ-.
ionship semi-finals . at • that.
When . the' ball weather was at
its , best, ' Lucknow' was playing
with. teams of other` categories,
in "games that. didn't mean ' a
thing. 'When the "football ,seas-
on" arrives it is decided that, the.
playoffshad abetter start. The
reason. that the series lag so, is
because of too much game-decid
ing by the teams, and not ' enough
"play ball" by the League: That's
what caused •the .final'collapse of
the fastball series, this year. Let's
hope someone .soon ; puts' a spark
in things. °
