signs himself travelling writes As follows to the sporting editor will you kindly permit one who for the past been in touch with the baseball situation in the Western Canada league to voice an opinion As to the present standing of the league the Winnipeg team certainly de serves credit for the wonderful show ing they have Marva this and the club is to be congratulated for hav ing secured the services of Row land As the writer feels pretty sure had the miners and Berry pickers been playing the game that the Are capable of during the last two have had a much better Chance of Vinning these teams have certainly fallen Down Bill morrows stragglers show new lease of life by defeating maroons in double Thelan twirls both games for Angels and gets away with at Western Canada Calgary to Edmonton during the last series a Edmonton ii that i Winn Nee that they had with that do not wish to unjustly criticise these but when you look at the last games that Saskatoon played with Cal Gary and Edmonton you find them win Ning four out of seven front Calgary and then losing six straight to Edmon ton then the miners break even at Calgary and pass up three in one afternoon to which almost looked outside of the above both the Berry pickers and miners have openly expressed them selves As being in favor of Edmonton winning Thile a Pitcher on the Saskatoon team remarked that be would rather lose the rest his games than see Winnipeg land on this is certainly unfair to the clubs who Are 1 playing their Best to win nor is it i to the Best interest of be tides being a Loyal to the City that they represent and the club whose Money they Are drawing for which they Are supposed to give their Best within the next week or so the Many followers of Rugby will be casting their summer

Tenner one m t More ways than with the Row i ing club and Johns already unpack i ing to near uniforms to get into harness once and the possibility of one 1 or More new senior teams being in the men Are looking i with pleasure to the opening of i Strong efforts Are to be made to in Bluefort As it is thought that with outside Competition the sport a Roll create More and will be better there is one Handl rap that May cause a Little trouble in allowing the fort William club admit and that is therein no Amateur body head of the and the boys do pretty nearly what they like the Only Way out be for
