A. eiiYiilar baseball school for umpires has been •named for Mondale, and Listowel, if ar- rangements can be made and um- pires mpires engaged to conduct the schools. A decision to set up a fastball league comprised of all the "A" teams was shelved'until the group meetings when a fastball umpire will be secured to discuss the same. The deadline for entries for base- ball and softball was set for May 12. The baseball group meeting for May 15 and the softball for May 16, both in Wingham. Birth certificates must also be in the hands of the secretary, Miss Jean Turvitt, by July 15. Resi- dence rules were set at June 15 for other than students. The resi- dence for them is dateline July 15. After that date the player must be a continuous • resident. With three of the seven games of the Stanley Cup series played, Toronto Maple Leafs are leading. They have won two games to the Montreal Canadiens one win. So far the series is very unpredict- able, with the games going into overtime to decide the winner. The style of hockey is changed quite a bit this year, with very few penalties handed out for rough stuff. Don't FORGET YOUR F -U -R -N -A -C -E When the Last Fire Burns Out!

Sills & Sons Plumbing Hardware Heating We received much criticism about last week's sports column on the coming softball season. The complaint—it was strictly softball, with no mention of hardball. . The high school boys of this dis- trict want a hardball team organ- izedin the juvenile grouping. Lack of funds seems to be the only thing keeping the fellows from entering the W.O.A.A, Even though they lack this ne- cessity, their enthusiasm is un- daunted and we think a little as- sistance is in order for the youth of Seaforth. What's wrong with some of the public-spirited clubs around Sea - forth? Are they going to sit back and let such youthful enthusiasm go to waste? Out of all the clubs in Seaforth, surely one can come forth with the necessary help and chose some- one to organize and look alter a hardball .team in Seaforth. TUCKERSMITH Messrs. Harry M.
