TERRACE Bay News Authorized as 2nd Class mail, Post Office Department Ottawa j | 1 | Circulation Terrace Bay & Schreiber BASEBALL SEASON ENDS ON UNHAPPY NOTE By this time, everyone knows that the home- town Comets are out of the LBA play-offs and that they did not finish their regular sche- | dule of twenty-six games, | | To clear up the situation in the eyes of the local people the Terrace Bay Baseball Executive would like te express their point | of view as follows:-- { { - 4 che end of, the Season came, which was July 3lst, Terrace Bay had a tie game | ' with Red Rock to replay, a rained out game _ With Red Rock to be played, and a game with | ; it had been halted by the curfew. the Port Arthur Colonels to be finished, as The two _ games with Red Rock should have been re- | scheduled tote played at Terrace Bay. One | of these games was a' home game for Red Rock / and one a home game for Terrace, The reason _ both should have been re-scheduled at Terrace Bay was because Red Rock agreed at the begin- _ ning of the Season to play all their home | games at the site of the team they were play-~ fing, The game with the Colonels had to be ' finished in Port Arthur, To finish the entire schedule the LBA _ asked Terrace to come to Port Arthur on ' Sunday, August 7th and, starting at 1:00 P.M. ; _ finish the game with the Colonels, and then play two games with Red Rock, Reluctantly, our executive agreed 'to do this in order to expedite the play-offs and co-operate with the league. The games were rained out, 'The League called us that Sunday night and asked us to do the same the following Tues- _day and start the first game at 6:30 P.M, 'Terrace Bay for two games, "NO", We said "No" and stated that they should _ Send Red Rock here Monday and Tuesday nights and, after those two games were completed, if we had to play the Colonels, we would come in, To this the LBA Executive said "No", Neither side would give in.. Then Terrace | Bay was given an ultimatum to be in there by . _Wednesday at 6:30 P.M, or they would be dis- regarded for future play. We told them that _ this arrangement was practically impossible and we still felt Red Rock should be sent to However, we again offeret to compromise. If we went in Wedneg- day we would finish the game with the Colonels and play Red Rock one game. If we won those two or one of them, then Red Rock should be sent to Terrace Bay for.the final game. Again the LBA Executive came out with a flat As a result Terrace disregarded the ultimatum and the League disregarded Terrace 'for further games, The Terrace Bay Executive feel the LBA Executive is in the wrong as we wrote them last July 12th asking that the two games with 'Red Rock be re-scheduled at Terrace before the end of the Season, July 3lst. They ig- 'nored us. We do not know what the future holds for , the team from Terrace Bay but RIGHT is RIGHT | and WRONG is WRONG, We feel we were right. --- Vol.3, No. 33 August 18, 1960 SWIM TESTS FRIDAY, AUGUST 19TH Red Cross Swim Tests will be held this Friday.
