HAmiLTON, ONT. on orb îreI lth o Ju -.The Bowmanville players namnes were net handed lu the secretary unlil July 16th. Thsis delay was no doubt for .a purpose, but when they were unable to get away with it they were fined fifty cents per day for thse number o! days late in naming their players. There were also two or tisree otiser teains f ined for the same thing. Tisese fines were to go towards isospital expenses for the yctung and dlean ittle player o! the Courtice team. who was unfortuniate in gettinig his leg broken. The teains that were fined, except Bowman- ville, paid Iheir fine like good sports- 'nen would. especially when the1 money wQ' s for a charitable purpose. The Bowmanville representalives tried e'.,ery way poseible bo avoid paying the fifleen dollars and a haîf regardless o! what il was for. 1 would ask the writer to recal to his memory the gaine between Courtice and Bowmanviile. played it Bowmanvl'e. wisen the Bowman- vil!e player del'beralely kicked a Courlice player who had to be car- r.ed off the f ield and doctors atten- tion and x-ray was necessary ami the Courtice lad was laid up for some weeks. Thse Bowman.ville play- er for this offence was barred froin playing tise next three gaines. For tisis offence he should haveeen barred for three years, yet the rt- er says the Bownianville players are good sportsmen. He has also offered some sugges- tions. I would suggest to tise wrlter or to the represenlatives o! tise Bowma,nville Football Teain: First, live up to tise ules that tisey agree to and help make; (2) Get players f romn their omn town Instead o! tait- irg or acceptlng players !rom a country village sonne ten miles away which weakened Clarke tearn and which strengthened lise team, calied Bowmanville to ret into tise play- o!! s. The writem also accuses the chair- man o! shirking isis duties in not being on hand to present tise cup to tise winning team. Tise chairman did nol know tisat the cup was to be presented at the close o! Monday nigist's gaine, as it is usually pre- sented at a s-cial gatisering a few vreeks after thse closing gaine. Thse wmiter also insinuates that the players in the other tearns arc o! tise type wisicis has drifted across tise border f rom Huey 'Klngfish Long's domain. He might again be advised, as he does not seem to know, that thse players In the other six leains. namely, Solina, Enniskil- len, Clarke, ZMon, Courtice and Ty- rone. are made Up o! good isonest Young Canadians who work and cama an isonesl living and are good truc sportsmen, not tise type tisaI have drlfted from, Huey Klng!ish Long's domain and wlll kick a man mihea ise is down. Aif. Ayre, President o! tise Clarke- Darlinglon Football League Sidney F. Nichols. Vice-President. Sport Editor's Note:- Tise officers slgning the above let- ter apparently have tise Impression that the article In last week's States- man was wrltten by a member of tise Bowmanvllle team. Thsis was a usual staff write-up and of course tisis accounts for no name havlag beea slgned to thse article. We might add that we are pleased to publlsh this letter, andi another froin Cour- tice, so tisat others mlght have tise opportunlty of placlng their side of tise question before or readers. We do believe, however, that Mm. Ayre BOWMANVILLE TEAM WINS EASTERLN ONTAIO TITLE should stick to the facts as contain- ed in the article. It was not sug- gested that memL'ers of other teams wvere not sportsmen. nor was Bow- manville excused for -net having their names handed in at the requir- ed time. Criticisrn, however a made of the executive's lack of faith- in the referEe who handled the Bowmanville-Courtice g arn e, i n which the alleged deliberate foul took place. In connection with this same game il might be added that Harris, a Bowmanville player, was kicked in the leg. an injury from whîch he suffered blood poison.ing. Bowmanville however did net raise an issue o! this malter. Il is suggesled in the above letter tisaI it was improper for Bowman- ville to have a player f rom outside ils terrilory on its toam, but the ex- ecutive is reminded that the Zion leam has used Oshawa players, and Orono usedi Arnold Lobb, one of Bowmanville's best players lwo years ago. These f acts have escaped the notice of the executive. In any event if the executive thought it im- proper to use outsiders on lthe1 Bowmanville teai. why was not a Protest made when the officers f irst became aware of the fact and not when thse season's schedule and playoffs have been completed. Had Bowmanville wished. protesîs could have been entered when Har- ris was injured, when Zion used Oshawa players, when Lobb played in Orono. and when several other mninor tisings occurred. Out of town players on the Bowmanville teamn offered their services without being asked. Courice P. O., Ontario Sept. 24, 1934 The Editor, Bowmanviile Statesman, Bowmanville, Ont. Dear Sir: The reporter o! 'Spot- light on Sports* made a very con- lemptible and un-sportsman-like at- tack on a fewo! the officiais o! tise Darlinglon-Clarke Football League, which is not included in thse rules o! Britis.h Pair Play. He has se grossly insulted sonne o! the officiais that it appears to me as if he really wanted te be 'Thse Big Toad in the Puddle,' ami run lhings in the regular Hitler way eaue apparently he has not enough back- bone to mention the naines o! the men he fiatul1ently writes about. Il was certainly very childish of him te suggest putting an unbiaseal man in thse chair next year; or was it ignorance on his part? I believe it was the latter, because I know he does not have ail lise facts at hand. Tell hum to corne te Courtice or Zion sorne night, and the boys will give hlm a few lessons in «British Fair Play.' Yours for success, Erie Forde. B. H. S. Newvs Dy Y. Duzzy Wright Aithougis B. H.
