Wool requires one kind nylon another . . acotate still an- other. In addition, different solvents must be used for ink, for grease, for fruit Fjains.

WILLS The Oakville Cricket Club op- ens the season on Saturday the 19th May. As usual the home games will be played on the Ap- pleby College ground but as this will not be avaliable until the middle of June, the first few games will be played away, Prior to the official opening of the season it is hoped to arrange one or two practice games This year the Club will play in the Hamilton and District League, and a full schedule has been ar- ranged continuing until the 15th September. As usual Oakville has entered the County Cup competition re- presenting Halton County. Tast year, for the first time in history, the Club reached the finals and hopes are high for a good show- ing this year. Practices will be held on every E. DAVIS W. S.

Apply any player or executive member of Oakville Snows Con- struction junior baseball team. That, in classified advertising form, is the operation plan for junior baseball hereabouts this season, Bud Corbett and his asso- ciates decided this week. Last year's O.B.A. juvenile champions, graduating to junior ranks this semester, will play floodlight ball in the strong West Toronto loop, and will carry on into O.B.A. junior B playoffs at the con- clusion of that group's schedule. All of which means a bit of a financing problem -- and Bud and his boys are hopeful that a boost- er ticket campaign will provide the answer. Single tickets, which will offer admission to all home games, will go on sale this weekend for $3, while two ducats can be purchas- ed for $5 where more than one member of a family is a baseball fan. The tickets are transferable, however, so that if Grandpa can't make any particular game, Cousin Clarence can go along on his ticket. Seems like a sound scheme, and certainly an econo- mical way of watching a lot of topflight junior ball. Working hard as they round in- to shape for their home opening here next Wednesday evening, the Snowbirds look like a smart crew. Last year's juve grads have been augmented by several youthful former intermediates, and Corbett expects to give the four Queen City clubs a real race for the sil- verware. While a final opening = lineup has naturally not vet been listed, it seems that Tom Sale will again start the season behind the plate, with Brush Fuller in reserve. day evenings and Saturday after- and Johnnie Dix secretary. noon of this week.

Jim Cowan will be: back from the Oaks to patrol centre field, with Denny Camm, Jim Withnell and Port Credit's Frank "Muck- er" Milne available for the other two outer gardens.
