To the editor:
The first ever reunion of the
Vernon Army Cadet Camp will be
held July 22, 23 and 24, 1994 at
Vernon, B.C. Originally, the
reunion was planned for the year
1999 (50th year) but unfortunately,
the powers that be are planning on
closing the camp down after the
summer of 1994. We're going to
try to keep it open, but it's rough
going.
November is
diabetes month
by Teresa Courtney
Helping one million Canadians
who have diabetes is the- reason
why volunteers of the Canadian
Diabetes Association will be knock-
ing on doors in November. The
money generated from this cam-
paign is targeted for research, ser-
vices and educational programs.
Diabetes doubles the chance of
heart attack 'or stroke. Diabetes
increases the risk of kidney disease.
Diabetes is the third leading cause.
of death by disease.
There is no cure for diabetes.
Insulin helps to control the disease
but it is nota cure. Please help us
find one by giving to research when
the canvasser calls on you. An
income tax receipt is given.
Your support is appreciated.
Together, we can do a lot.
We still need volunteer canvassers
for West Wawanosh. If you can
help call Teresa 529-7189.

Since 1949, at the rate of 1,500
each summer, well over 135,000
Canadian and 2,000 American
teenagers have attended the Vernon
Army Cadet Camp. The training
they received has made them pretty
good, Canadian and American
citizens.

Canadian baseball evolved as a
working-class sport. Players on the
first organized team -- the Hamilton
Young Canadians -- included five
clerks, three shoemakers, a marble
cutter, a tinsmith, a painter and a
saloon -keeper, along with makers of
everything from brooms to carriages.
Although players were praised for
their "gentlemanly bearing," games
between communities became
heated affairs and fights m the
bleachers. were not uncommon. The
popularity of the game was con-
firmed in 1869, when the town of
Woodstock hosted a three-day tour-
nament and attracted 5,000 spec-
tators, which was at least 1,000 in
excess of the southwestern Ontario

In 1876 the Canadian Base Ball
Association was formed. It featured
a five -team league, including the
London Tecumsehs who went on to
defeat the National League cham-
pion Chicago White Stockings in an
exhibition match.•
Baseball fever spread across
Canada. Games with U,S. teams
were prevalent in Victoria and New
Westminster, B.C. and by the mid -
1880s inter -town matches were
played in New Brunswick. In
Manitoba, Winnipeggers were said
to be suffering from "baseball
mania" and gambling on the games
raised public concern.
Although the vast majority of
professional league players in.
Canada were recruited from the
United States, by 1900 baseball was
the most popular and most
publicized sport in the country. The
'imagination of Canadians has been
seized in the field of dreams ever
since.
