Got- dard; Mixeti Doubles-Allan Os- borne anti Mrs. H. M. Nanson; Jun- ior Singles-Kitty Storey. Anti so Allan (Goozey) Osborne repeats his performance of past years anti takes every championship within his reach. Goozey has been champion o! the Club since it was fermeti anti has matie an enviable record for himself wherever le las playeti outside the local club rooms. The fact probably is that right lere in Blowmranviile we have a future Dominion champion, but the !act that a prophet is wtlout honor in his own country, is t.he reason wly few of the natives recegnize that we have some exceptionaily fine badi- minton players rigît in town.

Two meetings have been held, on Friday and Monday eveninga, when the possibilities were discusseti. Presitient Tommy Ross of the Lake- shore League andi W. J. Bagnel were about the only interesteti bu.si- ness men to, attend these meetings. It was decided on Monday that appointeti teams would canvass the business section and citizens in gen- eral for donations to support the teamn this summer. Another meet- ing wl bc helti in the near future anti reports made. Definite organ- ization will the take place and Bow- manville can look formýardti t a sea- son of basebaîl that will brmg at ts end at least the Lakeshore champ- ionship te, this town.
