Tuesday.
We, are taking one row in the

each town which means only 30
to 40 people will be able to pro
cure seats in their town, So it
would be advisable to check im
mediately.
Mr. Lisogan, producer of the

Thank Legion
I would like to take this

Legion for their very fine spon

many thanks for a beautiful

Question Of The Week
Who are going to stop
Flyers? Personally I think
have to be a yery good team.
They have a well-balanced club
—three good lines and, of course,
Jim Hayter on defence. And a
very good goalie. They are fast.
Give them an opportunity to
score and they will capitalize. On
top of that they have a terrific
following of fans.
Anyone misplace a pair of
men’s skates? If so, call Mr.
Bissen, phone 450R, Exeter.

If there are some bowlers still
wondering why your bowling re
porter gets paid for ,his work,
, here are some prime reasons that
would water-down anyone’s Xmas
spirits.
For instance:
• A member of the Strikes
asked us last week were we re
sponsible for making the .Strikes
rebowl their match with the
Whizz Bangs.
We admitted we took the mat
ter to the executive but that the
decision was a collective judg
ment, not individual.
• He said he thought the
league was .getting “pretty ser
ious” about bowling when the
captain of the Whizz Bangs
okayed the discrepancy.
To this we replied that no
gle person in the league has
authority to break any of
rules drawn up by popular vote.
• I-Ie then asked who was go
ing to pay for the games that
had to be bowled again.
That’s the end, brother!
Here’s another example:
• After the third forfeit in
nine weeks and the Blowers’ sec
ond, we suggested to the Blowers’
captain that perhaps, with his
teammates snowed in, it would
have been better to postpone the
game with the Spare Parts Mon
day night rather than forfeit it.
To this we got a real gem of
an answer: “That’s what you
guys would like!” he laughed.
Well, for your information,
“you guys” are the Pinpoppers,
who, in our way of thinking,
naturally would like to see any
of the top teams beaten for the
same reason the Toronto Maple
Leafs would like to see Detroit
and Montreal take a tumble.
Is that so ridiculous?
• The Keglers inquired this
week if the league was using
CBA rules or could they see a
copy of the
This was
request but,
are no local
for distribution. Some of the re
gulations may differ from O.B.A.
rules just as there are “ground
rules” on every ball diamond and
gymnasium.
We hereby offer to rectify this
condition. If the executive will
draw up the rules, we will be
happy to print them.
... To The Sublime
It isn’t often we Stick our
necks Out to bear the slings and
arrows of outrageous members of
the women’s league but, with so
many people sharpening their
axes with our neck in mind, one
or two more won’t matter. There
was weeping and wailing and
gnashing of teeth in the alleys
Tuesday night that can’t go un
explained.
It seems 275 is the mark of
achievement for the women's
league to cop a round of free
Cokes. No one has reached it yet
but Betty Wilson’s 274 for the
Alley Cats Was as close as darn
is to knitting (a headpin and 10
in the last frame).
'Don’t fret, Betty! it will only
mean you’ll have to wash down
the turkey that score will .prob
ably win with something else!
