SPORT SHORTS (By KEN LARONE) "How is' the interest in the minor baseball around town?" I have beenanswering this ques- tion about twice a day for the last two or three weeks. Each time it if people who have a in .' vMt . .ata sports but, Bke' most other ball fans around $ea- ferth, tney haven't had an.'adtive interest for five years. When people start asking ques- tions and become inquisitive about the advances of the Minor Base- ball Association activities, inimedi- ately .one 'realizes that the spark of interest needs only a little kind., - ling to start the former blaze of interest going. Merchants and business men have got behind the three yoittlg ball teals. To urge the h%@sebit team spirit to be carried oh it the future, three plaques have been niade available to the best player of the season on each of the teams. Encouragement such as•this cer- tainly makes the boys get' out and play keen competitive ball. • Just how the best player for each can be selected hasn't been • worked out yet. Several ideas have been suggested to the heads of the Minor Athletic Association, but no firm decision has been made. Seaforth-nitizens have been asked to participate in the selec- tion of the best ball player on the Pee -Wee, Bantam and Midget teams. If anyone has a good suggestion as to how the selection should be made, contact Adam Ast, presi- dent of the Minor Baseball Asso- ciation, or drop a letter to The Expositor. These .men need ideas and suggestions to make a fair selection out of the forty, boys playing ball in Seaforth this sum- mer. Donors of the plaques are: Pee- W,ee, George Miller: Bantam, Frank Sills; and in Midget, Levi Eckenswiller. o. fairty, i- - „ a Vag Zeit' k Dublin Youths Upset. in Field Five teenagers escaped with minor injuries when a car driven b'y 'Kenneth Stapleton, Dublin, mised a sharp curve near Beech- wood on Sunda>) afternoon and overturned into a nearby lot.
