President Russ Snell opened the meeting and called for a re­ port from Secretary liar Wolfe, who noted a surplus of funds re­ maining from last year’s receipts. Three bowlers—Bob Nicol, Bud Preszcator and Harold Penhale— were elected to the executive. Press reporter Bob Davis was re-elected and granted gratis bowling in payment of his serv­ ices'^ (my thanks to the league and to Rend Francois), The new counting method was officially adopted but the adop­ tion of CBA rules was left over for another meeting. Rene Francois consented to figure averages again this year and the same handicap system (three-quarters of the difference between bowler’s score and was re-instated. Larger League? Fro m a 11 appearances, Men’s League will expand year. Several new entries mentioned at Monday’s meeting. Last year’s league contained 16 teams. They played a ’’home- and-home” series before splitting into “A” and “B” groups. T,he larger entry this year may make an unwieldy task of draw­ ing up a schedule and, to partial­ ly remedy this, it was suggested that the league be split into three groups at the start of the season. The teams in each group would be arranged according to ability, so beginners would not be bowl­ ing against experienced bowlers. Meet Next Monday Team captains will decide the issue next Monday, September 21, 8^.00 p.m. at the town hall. Each team will be allowed one representative and he should have a knowledge of his team’s opinion on the subject of divi­ sions by schedule Bowlers: Team phone 499—Rend Francois—and register their teams, giving a full list of New should will be or vacancies will be filled in pres­ ent teams.

Is this your concept of recreation? Let me try to explain. Firstly, let us define recrea­ tion. Professor Allan Klein, of the University Recreation- is people do in for enjoyment pensation. To recreation within the scope of an organized public - supported pro­ gram, the activities must result in socially accepted values, and allow for possible growth and self-expression. Another definition: The re­ freshing leisure time use of mind, body and soul. ‘ Many Things Recreation is a difficult word to define. It has widely varied meanings to different people. Most people enjoy audience at­ tractions—movies, radio, tele­ vision, theatre, sports events. Perhaps this is your recreation, “spectatoritus”. However, there are others who participate personally in such .activities as tennis, golf, bridge, crafts, painting, fishing, dancing, dramatics, etc. To a craft en­ thusiast, the development of “re­ creation means more opportunity to practise player, it courts and ization. The men intense special interests are the key people in the development of recreation. They become the vol­ unteer leaders. For instance, Lloyd Cushman hag a terrific in­ terest in softball. He wants to see the game played and devel­ oped in Exeter. So Lloyd is ap­ proached and, after a discussion, is voted in as president of the Rec Softball League. He is in­ terested in It. He wants to see the sport progress, so he “volun­ teers” his services. Backbone Any of you people holding ex­ ecutive positions in any phase of recreation—lawn bowling, shoe club, hockey club, club- of Toronto, states: all those things their leisure time as the only com­ be considered as crafts; to a tennis means better tennis a better club organ- and women who h-we son visited over the weekend at Welland and Niagara Falls. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Blomgren of Denver, Colorado, and Mr, William Martin of Exeter visited oh Friday with Mr, and Mrs, James Mawhinney. Mr. ahd Mrs. John R. Sutler have returned home after spend­ ing the summer months at their cottage near Huntsville, horse drama ■are the backbone of re­ creation. Through such people, community recreation grows and thrives. The recreation committee and director encourage and assist these people. It develops from a person having an interest . . . let’s say in drama, to an interest group, to an organization such as a drama club. This is recrea­ tion in our community. *— Zone Organization A desire for inter-community cooperation in recreation results in the forming of a zone. A zone should have three characteristics: (a) large enough that is has a significant voice in the provincial organization, (b) small enough that people within it meet with­ out too much difficulty, (c) ad­ ministered in such a way that it represents the recreational agen­ cies within its boundaries. The name of our zone is the Lake Huron zone, extending from Exeter in the south to Owen Sound in the north. The zone ofers an opportunity for mutual planning, joint action, exchange of ideas, leadership training on a cooperative effort and a voice in the Ontario Re­ creation Association. Minor Ball Wednesday night, the minor softball and baseball leagues com­ menced their playoff schedule With a spattering of parents in attendance. Leafs defaulted their game to the Giants by not field­ ing a full team. However, enough players were rounded up and they had a game. Over on the girls diamond, from the noise and cheering sec­ tions, one would think Fresho and Orange were playing off for the world title. Joan Farrow and her Bees were buzzing around and took Betty Brady and her Moths to the cleaners, quently, the Bees and the Bugs lock horns Saturday morning in the first game of a two-out-of- three series.
