In order to operate successfully this year the Club needs sufficient funds, which can only be raised from dona- tions from Clubs and the people of Port Perry. . "As the people of this district and the parents of the child- ren will not come out to watch the kids play it is impossible to raise funds by means of gate recefpts. If sufficient funds cannot be raised then The members who turn out to help these youngsters are the same ones, year after year and they are getting tired of not being 'able to get suffi- cient backing from the people of Port Perry. It seems a shame that teams from outside of Port Perry can get considerable backing from our town folk while our own youngsters are turned down. At. the Annual Meeting all the members expressed their feelings and felt that if sufficient funds were not raised by the end of October that the Club should dissolve, And that is exactly what is going to happen. Through this column the Club is making one last appeal to the Public in order to raise the necessary funds. This is an organization that should be backed a 100 percent-by the people of Port Perry and district. So please be generous and get behind this youth organization. Anfone wishing to donate to this worthy cause can do so by sending their donations to the Sec- retary, Bill Harrison, P.O.

The only run of the game came in the fourth inning when Owen opened the frame with a single. Cornish popped out but Parker singled and then after Samanski flied out, Coch- rane was safe on an infield error, that let Owen score, Port Perry went down almost in order after that, except for an effort in the later in- ning but they managed to cling to their slim lead by stout defensive play and the game ended at that, 1-0.
