Why?? That question can only be answered gue. To give you the life of a boy who is interested in this sport of baseball, we have to go back to his early days. First, when he is old enough to walk, his father or some male adult teaches him how to throw, catch or bat a ball. This goes on until he reaches the age of eight. Then he Becomes eligible to play in Little League Competition. Te is only in that league till he becomes 12, . He then graduates into the Amer- ican Legion League and this takes him up to the age of 17. Where does he go from here? That is the question I am asking. When they approach the Island City League to play, they say they are too young. So he asks, “what can we do”. I am too told to play in the American Legion League and too young for the city league. This rule should be changed so that these boys can play, and if they are allowed, the league will see a change for the better in the way the game is played and also the gate attendance will increase. People are getting a little tired of witnessing one sided games and sloppy playing. Let’s give these boys a chance to prove themselves. It won't cost anyone a penny. After all I be- lieve that the sign in deep center field at the Studium reads, ‘“Ded- icated to the Youth of the City of Key West.” Shall they play with the City League or whai's to become of them? At the meeting of the Americn Legion Baseball League the ques- tion of sponsors was brought up. When the call for players was is- sued by the managers to report to Bayview Park last Wednesday evening, a group of over 60 boys showed up. The present rules only allow 15 boys on each team and so far there are only four sponsors for this group of lads. Two more are needed to make a six team league and also it will give the greater majority of our children a chance to play If you are interested in become a backer for one of these teams, contact me or one of the members of the League. The more you keep a youthful mind busy, the less chance they have to become delinquent. K, W.

The State Game and Fresh Wa- ter Fish Commission wiil meet here that day. Among proposals to be made is one that seining of pan fish be allowed on an experi- mental basis. Sports fishermen long have con- tended such seining is bad for game fishing. They say nets are dragged over bass beds and de stroy eggs.

Commission Chairman Cecil Webb, who was quoted erroneously last week as being of the same opinion as the biologists, said “I am going into this meeting with a free and open mind. I don’t know whether seining is good or bad for the fish supply.” The plan to be presented to the commission calls for seining in Lakes George, Okeechobee, Har ris, Eustis and Reedy.
