~^is^^eneTai--Tule~the-shoFtest-
after-dinner speeches are too long
and too dull but we are Of the
opinion that the Pole Cat samples
are-—well, different. Last year a
certain Cat made himself unpop
ular with a member of the fair
sex on his own .team-iby divulging
a “secret”. He was. outdone this
year by another Cat, the captain
himself, who saiw fit to confess
what everyone has known for a
long, long time! -The holiday
break is most welcome after
that. one. Seb you in the Fall!

POSSIBLE HUGHIE HALL MAY
PITCH AGAIN FOR LUCKNOW
w ■ '
With an Ontario hockey cham
pionship tucked; away, sport faps
can now turn their attention sole
ly to fastball and ask what’s cook
ing. ; ■/ ' "
' Could "be a m ighty interesting-
^ummer, Seems certain that the
jCrosset Mercurys, won’t operate
this year, and that Lucknow and
Wingham will join forces toTfield
a teain. The. neighboring town
has several diamond-wise guys
that could round out quite a
squad.. •
Mark Gardner’s all for it, He’d
like to see such a sqt-up "which
no douibt would include a couple
of: Lucknow-lborn lads, Doug Ait-
chison and Lome Gardner.
But, the big question yet to be
settled is. whb; the 1953 Legion
naire battery will be. Hurlers
that can hold their own in this
-loop - don’t come _a_iime a dozen.
Could be that Hughie Half might
yet be back here, and the Big
Fellow withy the powerful whip
was always ■ popular with local
(fans, and a Ibig. drawing card
everywhere on the circuit.
But" Hall-has a y good job now/-
and that folding stuff isn’t as en
ticing as it was in ‘collegiate
days. Nonetheless Hughie always
liked it here,, and if he performs
this season in the W.O.A.A. fast
ball loop, teri chances to one' it
will be in the Sepoy Town,’where
they’ll whoop up again that old
familiar cry “Come On Hugh”.

Missing From^i^tute^- -
Ron Graham was missing from
the picture of the Midget champ
ions in our last, week’s issue. Ill?
ness kept him out of that game.
But, on the other hand, ’ there
were some others “missing” so
far as facial expression was con
cerned. It was a Free Press pic
ture,. and unfortunately a poor
one—and it ebst us nearly five
bucks to make matters worse.
