However, the teams will in turn be responsible for marking out the diamond themselves. The decision was reached after rec director Alvin Willert asked RAP what to do regarding the situation of Sunday ball games. It was explained that it would require an employee being paid overtime wages and this was not economical unless the teams were to be charged. Assistant director, Gary Middleton, said it took about two hours to prepare the diamond. Reeve Derry Boyle said that when he managed ball teams he had to prepare it himself and felt others should do the same. He said it was the "easy way Mt. Carmel women have recent surgery By MRS.

RAP chairman Gord Baynham was opposed to the idea. He noted that baseball was on the upswing and he would like to keep it that way by helping the teams have the diamond ready for play. However, he failed to get any support. A discussion was held on a request from the intermediate team that a new hardball diamond be built. They now use the softball diamond since the former hardball diamond was taken over by the rodeo grounds. Boyle, who had opposed moving the hardball diamond, noted RAP wouldn't be facing the problem if they had listened to him. He suggested that no action be taken until next year to deter- mine if intermediate hardball was going to continue in the community. During the discussion, Willert, explained there were now about'{ 17 games per week on the diamond and that it cost RAP about $20 a week in staff mem- ber's time to keep the facilities up.
