The Officiai Op- ening Day which is proclaimed by the Municipality, has had the best the weatherman could provide in the past five years since the W.M.B.A. was organ- zed in 1969 and assoc. offic- iais are hoping for blue skies and warm weather to 'usher in another basebail season. Whitby's clubs piaying in the Eastern Ontario Basebal Ass- ociation have been underway for two weeks but Saturday marks the beginning of an- other season for the boys who play on the W.M.B.A. Tee- Bail, Tyke, Pee-Wee, Bantam and Midget House- League C- lubs and who make up the buik of the registration. Sat. marks the beginning of an- afternoon will feature exh- ibition games for'clubs in al of the parks used by the Assocn. and their regular sch-- edules will get underway next week. Success often creates pro- blems and the success of the W.M.B.A. with the resulting increase each year in regis- tration and the increase in the number of clubs and ther- efore the number of games has created a problem for the assocn. and it's Umpire-in- Chief Bill Link, bas a crucial need for volunteers to act as officiais. Anyone willing to offer their help will be wel- comed, particularly anyone new to the community who' has had previous experience as an officiai. The whoie programme depends on vol- unteer help and the W.M.B.A. does flot want to curtail any of its activites because of a shortage of wiliing-people who wiil assist.
