Prinrc Rupert Dnflj? r3clus Thursday. October 10, 1916 : Totlay FULL SCALE BOXLA LEAGUE PROMISES - FAST, EXCITING WINTER SPORT HERE One of the fastest and most thrilling sports played anywhere in the world, will make its debut shortly in the form of a Prince Rupert Senior Lacrosse League. Thls sport is generally consider-- ed a summer sport as hockey holds the limelight In the winder where facilities are available. However, Prince Rupert, lacking hockey facilities should provide an ideal setup for a winter boxla league. Several exhibition games during the summer were the first lacrosse tilts witnessed here since the early 1930s when field . i ... latiusse was piajeu wun sucn old timers as Dtck Woods, Brick Skinner, Prankie Derry, Slats Erickson, Nipper Woods, Ernie Webster and other familiar athletes starring. j lacrosse, the - indoor version of 4Vln vrtw.n U In fcucj ti iir riri lii lit- ui.ivrii ill this city and it is hoped it will receive considerable favor from local sports fans. FIRST GAME OCT. 18 for the league with the first game on .October 18 between i the Legion and another sponsored team. Full scale practices will get under way tomorrow night and all lacrosse players and those interested in playing are urged to bh at Roosevelt gym. -Practices are held Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays until 'games start. Some of the outstanding players showing here will include Bud Schuman, formerly of Richmond Farmers in the Vancouver- -jicw caiiuuiaici League, nan Sheardown who. incidentally, is back from a holiday and whos? absence was greatly felt in the Uganda series, formerly of Sal-monbelliejs and other southern Interior teams; Charlie Maun-drel, who also played in the south, and several other players with experience in top-notch lacrosse leagues in B.C., not to -mention many local atnietes who have readily taken to the game. ALSO JUNIOR LEAGUE A junior lacrosse league also is in the formation stage with sev eral, dozen of the younger fry ! attending practices regularly, i some of whom look very prcm lsing indeed. From all accounts this sport should climb to the upper bracket in the local sports scene and it is expected it will be given due support by sport fans throughout the city. FIJIAN PHARMACISTS SUVA, Fiji, P) A proposal has been made to the Fijian government that men of the Islands should be trained locally as pharmacists. In the plan, Fljians could serve theij- apprenticeship in Fiji, then to New Zealand for a brief period to study for and take their final examination.- LONDON, 0) Westminster Council has 'requisitioned 26 bombed sites for conversion into car parks. in Sports I TJff)f) P HP A T T UUi SJJ. Now that it is getting close to the opening night of the 1946-47 basketball season we should take a look at some of the younger talent that will show this season. In the Junior loop we will see four teams, namely Gyros, High School, Grotto and Watts St Nickerson. The Watts i Nickerson outfit. winner of the league last season, will strip an entirely differ ent squad with as much punch as their predecessors. At centre will be Ray Spring, lacrosse star, which most of us saw in action against the Uganda on their last visit, to Prince Rupert. Filling the other two forward spots will be Bob Scharf, Billy McChesney, Kenny Bozo and Sidney Scherk. Guards will be Lawrence Garner and Gordon Sharum who are strangers in the city and will be seeing their first year in competition here. Most of last year's W. Si N. team is now playing for Bo-Me-Ill Rainmakers in the intermediate section of the league and, according to Alex Bill, Bo-Me-Hi coach, they will definitely prove a great asset to his team as the season progresses. GROTTO'S TALL CENTRE The Grotto, formerly known as the Sea Cadets, will be out in full strength for their first game October 15. They will sport at centre big Jim Hebb, their six-foot lad who played for the same outfit last season. Hebb will : able to use his height and experience to great advantage and great things are ex pected of him by Coach. Maurice Tens. Teng will show at forward positions Bob Currie, Sid Young -man and Red Anderson who are all playing their second season in organized basketball. , At guard will be Andy Owens and Barrie Watson also twd-year men. Bobbie Anderson, the only rookie on the 'team, will take a forward position when called upon and is showing promise of becoming a regular before the season gets far under waVi This team, although they made a disappointing effort last season, ending uo well down the win column, will have to be reckoned with with all seriousness by their opposition as they will carry the experience gained last season to aid them in the quest of their first league championship. GROTTOS STRONG Last year's runners-up to Watts & Nickerson, Syd Wood-side's quick breaking Gyros will again be the team to contend with as they will have the same boys as last season, when they were the only team in the league to take a game from the winners. Working from the sides will be Alan Mostad, the boy with the nonchalant left handed shot, and Don Scherk, late star of Watts & Nickerson, at left for- II I THERMS NO OTHER TOBACCO JUST UKE I 9 I OLD CHUM The Toba((o of Quality S I ward, while the right lanes will be ably looked after by George (Joe) Haugan and Billle Sun- berg. ' The centre position will be taken care of by Doug Shier, who is one of the most Improved players in the junior loop and one of the fastest breakers In the game. Guards are "Hack" Laurie, a tall, rangy lad- who is coming into the picture more in every game he plays, partnered by Eric Moore, who is the workhorse of the team and is here, there and everywhere, always fighting to give his team possession of the ball. The guard will be strengthened by the addition of Oscar Mercer, a newcomer to the game who has all the prospects of becoming another "Sonny" Beynon. JUNIORS IMPORTANT While great things are ex pected from the operation of the Junior League, it is believed that the basketball league cannot pay too much attention to this division, as from it will come the players of the years to come. The importance of good handling of the games especially the refereeing and umpiring, should be stressed. Bad habits acquired at this stage of the game can become disastrous to the young player when he advances to the more senior divisions. Kiereeing should be just as efficient in the Junior division as it is in the senior loop. V mli;ht also bo suggested to the executive that the Juniors get a chance to show their wares before the public by alternating this division with" the girls as very few of the ticket buyers will be on hand at 6:30 p.m. to see the first game. Nothing will give these lads more tvmfidence than playing before a crowd. It will also give some of the senior representatives a chance to look .them over with an eye to future talent of which there is ample. - - Classified Advertising - - ClsAalflrdsi 2e per word per Insertion, minimum chares, 50c Birth Nader 60c; Cards of Thanks.
