H. Campbell . SPORTS EDITOR . 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' LAST NIGHT'S softball meetings produced a variety of action -- one was lively and fairly constructive while the other was lively enough, but very little really happened. City and District Association officers found themselves with two new paid-up entries, the Port Perry Merchants and Oshawa Juveniles. This left the local set-up with eight clubs, actually about two or three more than they would like --but still not s0 many that a compact schedule couldn't be handled. There was a fine bit of out-of-season stick-handling going on but president Charlie Russell has called another meeting for to- night, same time, seven o'clock, same place, at Oshawa Chil- dren's Arena -- and they'll settle things tonight, one way or another -- and no doubt, as usual -- the decision made will eventually prove to be sensible and correct, There must be a solution and tonight's meeting will surely produce a couple of suggestions to be considered. One thing is certain a the City and District Association officers will take a definite stand, if pushed too far, for in the end, they have the respon- sibility of running the game in this city and the private wishes of any one or more teams, whether based on selfish or financial reasons, can not be condoned, x x x x OSHAWA MINOR Softball Associations meeting last night at Siracoe Hall had a fine turnout of positive and probable entries, but no definite action was taken. They all agreed to hold their next meeting on Thursday, May 23, at eight o'clock, at Simcoe Hall, at which time they plan to close entries for the Bantam and Midget Leagues. At the moment, a solid four-team Midget League seems likely, with Fernhill Park, Storie Park, Southmead and North Oshawa as the con- tendérs, with Woodview Park in the "possible" class as a fifth Wntry. The situation in the Kiwanis Bantam League ap- pears extremely healthy, Bathe Park is returning to the fold, after several years of absence, while Sunnyside, Lake Vista, Storie Park, Nipigon, Valleyview, Connaught, Fernhill and Radio are all almost certain entries. Zion, last year's "out-of-town" members, have withdrawn but in addition to those mentioned, there is a strong likelihood that teams from Kingside, Southmead, Eastview, along with North Osh- awa and Rundle Park, may be on hand next Thursday night to enter the fold. Judging from the comments at last night's meeting, it would appear the Kiwanis Bantam League entries will vote in majority to stay with the old, long-standing and very successful policy of the Association's constitution on a Neighborhood Park may use only players living in their own neighborhood area. And in contrast, as has been the case in recent. Years, the various Midget entries will likely arrive at a mutual agreement, whereby each team will be permitted a "combined" roster, under stipulated regulations. x x x x BILL KURELO, chairman of the "Parade Committee" for the Oshawa Civic Centre organization, checks in with the information that he has secured some top-ranking athletic stars, to participate in the big parade next Saturday, May 25. Included are Canadian track-and-field stars who won honors at the recent Pan-American Games in Brazil. These include Nancy McCreedie, who copped two gold medals; Oshawa's Alex Oakley who also won a gold medal for Can- ada; Jenny Wingerson, silver medal; Lloyd Percival, Can- ada's well-known track-andield coach, and a couple of National League hockey stars; Chicago Black Hawks' Bobby Hull, from Belleville, and Boston Bruins' Ed.
