seven hits, Justice struck out 10 and

singles with the rest of the sleek

1,000 Bandsmen in
C.N.E. Festival
More than 1,000 bandsmen will take
part in the 31st annual CNE band
competitions this year on Music Day,
Aug. 28. The festival of martial music
Will bring bands and band fans from
as far as Swift Current, Saslc., with
80 bands competing for honors in the
seven classes.
The greatest names of past and.
present Canadian band music are on
the CNE record books. The late Capt.
David Anderson led the famous 13th
Regiment band of Hamilton to victory
in the first competitions in 1921, On
Sept. 1, 1939, Captain James Williams
won with his Georgetown band at 3
p.m. A few minutes later he was
rushed from the grounds to the colors
on the outbreak of the war. In charge
of one of the first bombers to fly to
England, his aircraft was never heard
of again after taking off from Canada.
The Canadian Bandmasters' Associ-
ation considers the CNE competitions
have done much to improve the qual-
ity of Canadian band music. Test
pieces for senior divisions a dozen
years ago, have now been relegated
to junior competitions as a result of
the higher standard of today. An
example of the band careers which the
CNE had a part in shaping is that of
Capt. M. M. Scott, director of music
of the army's Central Command Band.
He made his start with the Lindsay
boys' band and, first appeared at the
CNE as a baritone player, Later he
attended the band mecca of the world,
Kneller Hall School of Music, and won
his music degree from the Royal
Academy.
Travelling expenses, as well as the
limited number of bands which can
be handled in a one-day competition,
restrict the entries somewhat, but
many Ontario centres will be repre-
sented along with Montreal and Swift
Current. In some towns, the day is
declared a public holiday to enable
local fans to support their hometown
band. With the Swift Current band
will be cowboys and girls, horses and
all. The band will he under the
patronage of Governor General Vin-
cent Massey for a visit to Newcastle,
Other bands competing include:
Welland, London, Georgetown, Fruit-
land, Hanovzr, Woodstock, Barrie,
New Toronto, Thorold, Fort Erie,
Gravenhurst, Watford, Norwich, Mea-
ford, Strathroy, Burlington, Chatham,
Harrow, Oshawa, Sudbury, Brussels
Orillia and Toronto. The music being
used for the competitions this year is
being chosen as much as possible from
the works of Canadian composers, in-
cluding Capt. R. B. Hayward and Dr.
Chas. OVeill of Toronto and
Thiele of Waterloo.
Wingham scored their lone tally
early in the game, but the Blyth girls
took the lead and as the game pro-
gressed played steady ball to pull a-
way from the opposition, and win
easily,
They were accorded some loyal mon.
al support from the goodly turnout of
local fans who were tickled to see the
girls turn in their best eXhibition of
the season. Everyone likes the way
our girls appear to have their hearts
Hanover Takes J
14-Inning Game
Micheniek won the ball game for
Hanover in the fourteenth inning
coming home on a passed ball ,with
the score tied two all. Highlights of
the game were Sparrow's home run
in the fourth, which brought in Tem-
pleman; Polosky's home run in the
second frame and a lovely catch by
Roney Foster in the fifth.
Sparrow almost won his own ball
game in , the fourth innings with a
home run to put Wingham ahead 2-1.
Lawrence scored the tying run in the
ninth and the game went for five
extra innings.
Cotton was working well, hurling 19
strike outs and Sparrow coming
through with 11. The fans really got
their money's worth. Wingham gath-
ered up five hits and Hanover seven.
Gaull, Templeman, Sparrow and
Crewson looked after the hitting
chores for the Mercurys.

Wroxeter Eliminates
Ethel, 2 out of 3
Wroxeter Rockets played with
Ethel, Tuesday night at Brussels un-
der the lights, winning with a score
of Wroxeter 22, Ethel 8, This was a
particularly interesting game, the
home team coming through with a
double play and a triple play. Again on
Thursday night at Wroxeter, the
score was Wroxeter 13, Ethel 7. This
eliminates Ethel in the best of three
series in the play offs.

IN THE SPORTLIGHT BySALks"XitdilERCI
With the 1952 Olympics drawing to a close and sportsmen across the
country hiding their 'heads in shame at Canada's poor showing, the witch
hunt is on to find out why we did so badly,
.A recent editorial in the London Free Press, We felt, was close to the mark
and we reprint the same here.
"If the test of sportsmanship is playing the game rather 'than winning
Canada is leading the way at the Olympics at Helsinki, At the time of
writing, very few points have been scored for Canada in the Summer
Olympics. This may be in keeping with the tradition that no official scores
by countries are kept, but a good many Canadians will find it galling to
their pride.
The Olympics provide a wide cross-section of athletic testing. Almost
every type of athlete has a chance to show off his specialty. The current
showing would indicate that Canadians are not up to world standards in
athletics, This is no surprise to sports writers, though it may be to Canadians
In general.
By health standards Canadians rank well up, It can perhaps be assum-
ed that failure of her—athletes to do as well is in a considerable degree a
matter of training. Probably the chief reason for the deficiency is that
Canadians, by and large, are not much interested in track and field events, or
indeed in any but spectacle contests. We do not go in for training athletes
up to Olympic standards.
It is about time for us to decide whether we are prepared to devote the
time, energy ,money and intelligence needed to produce athletes who can
hold their own in world competition, or to withdraw from the Olympics.
We have no particular axe to grind and have no intention of using the games
for propaganda purposes, as some nations ,do, But if Canadians are to
compete at such games they should be given an equal opportunity in training
and equipment."

the Blyth Legionette Juniors won
their first victory of the season, de-
feating Wingham by the one-sided ▪ score of 13 to 1, Helen gleaned her-

three times in a row via the strike-
