T-TELP()-MAOTq COT.V .TOTTRNAL IDELINE LANTS by BILL DICKIE PREP BASEBALL SKIDDING? This scribe is concerned over the apparent decline of high school baseball in Shelton--and Olympia, too, it might be added. I The diamond sport, traditionally I the leading athletic activity in this community and the one in which the highclimbers have established by far their finest record, is hav- ing its troubles this spring. For one thing Loop Field has not been in anything even approach- i1g playable condition. A ditch extending the full width of the field has been dug to install water mains and was still not complete- ly covered over Monday. Also, several truck loads of dirt have been hauled in, dumped over the infield, and left unspread for days, completely preventing practice and forcing the Highclimbers to enter their opening practice game with Elms this Tuesday without any liner will never know. It mma like very poor timing and bad planning. Besides this difficulty at home, Coach Norm Hillyard has met with obstacles in arranging a schedule through the procrastination of oth- er schools in the league in answer- ing his requests for game date. , '* Me iin;]ile- the Snpervisors'xvon infield drill. a 2 to 1 verdict over Maintenance I Just why this Imrt of work I behind Clyde Fagergren attd Ernic I is left until the very time the Lemley after losing the opener to= field should be available for Joe Rank's 231, the night's top! turnouts is something the Side- single gmne.

IIllA,YARD hasn't been able to get n|ucl line on his potential infi,hh,rs and outfielders as yet because of a conbimtion of rain and unusable field, but his bat- terymen are getting plenty of work and will be ready for this Saturdny's opening game at Port Or,'hald if no one else iv. The squad has put in a few licks at hitting practice but no infield work as yet. Hillyard has been impressed with the throwing arm uncovered so far by sopho- more Bill Tabor, transfer from Tac(ana, and the yonngster may push lettcrman Floyd Priszner for playing time behind the bat if he cau hit anything. The veteran lefthander. Bob Tobey, will get the call for open- ing pitching duty at Port Orchard Saturday, Hillyard indicated with conditions of the game determin- ing how far he goes. FUEL OU EACH AgJD YOUR that in which the Highelimbers ex- celled most. @ MORE HOOP TALK Entering the discussion which has arisen lately over the South- west Washington high school bas- ketball setup, Bruce Hood writes in the Montesano Vidette: "The showing made by Olympia l and Aberdeen at the state tourna- I ment definitely indicates that such schools as Montesano, Elma, Ray-[ mend and Shelton should not bc in the class "A" league. They just haven't a chance against the "big three," Olympia. Aberdeen or Cen- italia. At the start of each sea- son its a foregone conclusion that these three teams will be in the such ]arg'er :chot)l c0ntpetRld, ttlese four small schools never have a chance to take part in a state tournament. "The question of transfering  these smaDer schoole to a "B" league has come up several times at the annual meetings of high school principals, No doubt it will come up for discussion again this year and, ae usual, nothing will be done about it. "Here is a suggested "B" league that should prove quite popular with small school basketball play era and their supporting fans--; Shelton Raymond, Valley, Che- halls, Elma, St. Martins and Mon- tesano. Sueh a league would not trove a tendency to give any one team too much advantage over the others." Bright and early Monday morn- ing a group of 15 Olympia women golfers gathered at the local course with a group of home club gala. The. primary reason for tie visit was to get t share of that turkey Mrs. Ashbaugh won from them at the Olympia Golf and Country Club last December. Ical gala out to show the Olympia htdies around the course were Zedna Ash- baugh, Vera McKenzie Kay Scott and Vivian Halbert. Low gross honors went to Mrs. Ruth Patter- son of Olympia who combined rounds of 45 and 46 for a 91. Not bad! Low net honors went to Zedna Ashbaugh with a net 83' and Mrs. Helen King with net 85. league.

"Pores of the Week" The former Shelton dentist was quoted in Spokane recent- ly as declaring he would not permit his famous youngsters, whose flowing rhythm on ice has brought them world recognition and numerous championships, to skate profelmtonally for less than $1,500 a week. The current top price for skat- ers in ice shows today is about $500 a week, "and I'm not going to let my kids quit school for that kind of money," Dr. Kennedy stated. SPORTS SHORTS George Hermes, principal at Irene S. Reed high school, pinch- hit in a vocal role last week for Art McLarney, U. of W. basketball coach, at the annual Elma high school basketball banquet spon- sored by the Elms Kanis Club, The Shelton principal, who former- ly coached at Elma, praised the Eagles for putting out to the best of their ability even though losing every conference game this past s.son, for fighting just as hard at the end of the chedule as at the beginning. He also emphasized the influence athletes have on oth- er boys, either for good or bad, as their example is usually followed by ounger lads. Wayne Clary has been placed on the second teams of the only two all - conference selections which have come to the atten- tion of the Sideliner so far. Ed Stanley, sports editor of the Ab- erdeen World, and Dick Watson, sports editor of the Olympia News, both gave the Highcllmb. er ace a spot on their second teams, Both pioked identloal first teams of Tony Vlastelica, Dean Rookey, Ooug MCClary, Mao Paetlow and Ron Urqtthaet. ] Television set owners in this commUnity discovered they were mighty popular people Saturday night---as long as they tuned in the N.C.A.A. basketballchampion- ship games being played in the University of Washington pavilion.
