Crew members were: John Baird, Al Masson and Charlie Ambler. It should be remembered that all members of the Oakville Yacht Squadron are commodores, thus eliminating all possibilities of anyone having to take orders. "I was particularly impressed with what the Port Credit mem- bers had done to make sailing popular and effective," said "Commodore" Rusty Cumberland. He explained the club had secur- cd the land for the clubhouse from the federal government at an annual rental of $1, and that the town had provided some. fill. The clubhouse itself more or less grew like Topsy. "The members put it up themselves," he stated. Contending Oakville's refurb- ished harbor provided excellent opportunities for small yachts- men, he expressed the hope that the squadron's efforts to secure a location for a clubhouse would prove successful, "We have a line on a building down, the shore," he Minor Baseball NEXT WEEK'S SCHEDULE MINOR PEE-WER June 25--Bud Corbett's Sporting Goods at Rotary, 28--Lions at Rotary. 2--Halton Hardware at Bud Corbett's, PEE-WEE 24--Lions at Ollie's Clean- ers. 29--Ollie's Cleaners at Lake- shore Cleaners, BANTAM 25--Rotary at Whitaker's, 28--Arch Grant's Aces at Grammell's, July 5--Sports Association at Whitaker's, June July June June June June: STANDING MINOR PEE-WERE El onan w.

"We're getting prices to move it, but we haven't found a spot to locate it yet. I am sure that we could have just as many if not more economical yachts sailing out of Oakville as now sail around Port Credit. After all, a harbor without boats is like a duck pond 'without ducks." Rusty pointed out that the squadron would welcome any new members who would like to join --and become commodores, of course--and promised them sail- ing opportunities in the Thursday and Sunday races which are held each week.
