No, --lYlemteno Elms, P,y- mend, (;heballs atd Rt, Mar- tln. No. $Longview, Ktlo, Vtm- t,ouver, Bat tl@ Ground and Cam- as, The idea comes partly from the fact that the Solthwest diatrtct is allotted three entries in the I state tournament, with second place teams of the present two divisions playing off for the third position. Under the proposed new alignment each division winner would go to the tournament with- out engaging in any inter,division playoffs. Two other factors, among sew eral, enter into tle arguments favoring the proposal, one being the poor balance in the present northern division which is cam- posed of so-called "Big' Four" and "Little Four" groups with the for- mer dominating the latter rther strongly and consistently over the years the divisio)t has bee)t so comprised. The other fad,tar is the ob- Jection southwest Class B lea- gues have to competing with St. Martins, whose etrolhnent Is made tti) entirely of hays. The (;lass B leagues contend that even thouglt St. Martins' enroll- ment t(da is actually less tha;z tLhe CI B )rmximum it still gives silent twice t many boys as Class B s4,ltools of approxi- mately th(s same size from whi(,h to draw material for Its teams. There's legit' in tlutt, tmquestional)ly. Sent iment for the proposal seems to be fairly strong and probably meets with approval in ahnost 'every sector except at St. Mrtins mid here at: Shelton. Such a division wot]ld be a ter- rifi(' handi(:p on the 1-1"ighclimb- or's, who wold b', tossed in with Olympia, Contrails, Aberdeen and Hoquiam.

TIME TO GET GOING What's the score on town team ba,':chall for Shelton tills year? Nary a word Ias been sounded froth the ltStlttl sources, which makes one wonder if last year is to he repeated all over again, wheti the very unsatisfactory ar- )'ngemeht of a half-Shelton, half- Olympia roster attempted to re- present botl communities, play in both towns, and failed to gain a following in either as a result. Now Is tile thee organlza- I lanai work shouht be well tm- der way, before the leagues are t, Ii filled up, and praiser spon- sorship ('an lie undertaken. ome of the better players here are already receiving offers from ottt-of-town clubs for their ser- vi('es for the approaching season. so if Shelton is to have a town team the organizing steps mr)st be taken quickly. It would be u shame now that we have lights at Loop Field to allow them re go nnused when there are st) many good ball play- ers here from which a strong team could be fashioned. SPORTS PECKS Fastballers, the boys who throw and bat the inflated ball once called "Softball," are beginniitg to g'et that annual spring urge to action attd the call to organize the city league probably won't be far in the future. Some chang'el in the league are bound to takt place this season, probably result ing m a generally stronger, faster circuit, with a couple of new en- tries as possible replacements for o)o or two old clubs who were weak sisters last year, Shortly, when the annual bas- ketball award assembly is held at Irene S. Reed High School, a new trophy will be presented to some member of this year's Highclimb. c' hoop squad. Fred Bekwlth, who does about as luch for sck)oo[ athletics and school activities in general as anybody in this com- munity, has donated a trophy for the best foul shot on the team. ] W, he that marksman fror i.,1,he ] ft:ee throw line is will remain un 1 luotlnccd until Coach Chat Doln- ] i)voul passes out the varl a.t betball awards at the assembly. / , :i, ,J; 1 Speaking of trophies, another new on(, made its appearamcere, cently when the ety basketball league, for the first time, gave its J champion a handsome trophy fo" ! permanent possession. Names 0f4 the eight members of the Ander-J son-Reiten ltotors team which | won the title' were engraved on | the trophy. It was the idea of [ Jim Tough, league secretary-man- ager, and is on display now at the Anderson Motor ompany. Some of his bowling "brothers' have wondered at Clyde Zeitler' unusual delivery--he bowls in both the commercial and Rayonter leagues----but the reason for it is that Clyde i naturally a south- paw but has had to convert him- sel/" into a z'ighthander because of an injury to him 1.eft arm, This season's bowling races 'ar providing a flock of excitin wind-ups with tight finishes in store for virtually every league. At the current writing (Sunday night) with four weeks of play remaining, the Rayonier circuit has a four-team race In which four games separate the teams in its upper division, the women's city league has five teams withit five games of the top rung, the commercial league has a blistering two team race with a third still in the running with an outside chance, the men's city league has a four-game span separating its top four contenders. Only the two Simpson leagues have anything approaching one-sided chases, the men's league leader and the wo- men's league leader both being .four games to the good. State high school athletic case- • ciation delegates gathered in Seat- tle at the state basketball tourn- ament set a 20-game limit on prep basketball schedules, exclusive of qualifying meets for the state tourney, and set December I as the earliest any games can be played.
