In spite af gaad weathcr <at game time) and a parade ta the Vincent Massey Park, only a handful af spectators showed up for opening day. The teain had counted on having a good turn-out for the tirst home game, and neediess ta say, the management is disappointed. It is under consideration, ta move the team, unless the crowds pick up. The other local bail teams are also badly in need of support. The 10c charge for each bail landing on Bruce Clarke's pnoperty during practices and games hasn't helped the situation. Mr. Clarke bas a crop af wheat on his property, which ha ightly doesn't want trampled. It is ta be hôped that a solution ta this problemn will be faund. The Harvester management intends ta sec if arrange-, mnents can be made, ta move the club out of town if fan support is not farthcoming. t t f. t t WEEK'S SPORTS ATTRACTIONS Soccer-Sr. - Sat., June 7-Maple Grave at Zion - Tyrane at Ennisk.illen Wed., June i 1-Courtice at Bowmanville - Sauina at Hampton Soccer-Jr. - To-night-Zion at Tyrone - Maple Grave at Enniskillen Sauina at Hampton Baseball - Intermediate - Wed., June il-Port Hope at Bowmanville Midget - To-night-Port Hope at Bowmanville Bantam - To-nght-Millbrook at Bowmanville lPee Wee - Tuesday, June 10-Part Hope at Bowmanville I know everyone will jain with thc Statesman staffi n wishing Howard Cowle, treasurer afi"the Intermediate Hanvesters, a speedy recovery.
