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.

last week by dropging the odd

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

E. Kennedy. "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-

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.
