Bulletins

By JEAN CAMERON
See’y, Friends of the Mackenzie-
Papineau Battalion

EMBERS of the Priends’ com-

mittee appear to have entered
the horticultural field, what with
sacks of gladiola bulbs now lining
the office walls. The veterans have
tackled the job of packaging them
according to colors and shipping
them out. Already many have been
shipped and orders for more de
liveries are on hand. Various or-
Ganizations have spoken for dozen
lots to distribute among the mem-
bers, which is one way of beauti-
fying the city, getting 2a bargain
for your money, and not the least,
helping the wounded veterans.

HE Victoria Committee has

done good work. With all its
many activities, a collection, sent
in Saturday, amounted to $90 and
it was most welcome. With the pris-
oners now coming back we have
need of such support.

e@
EYRE working hard now on
the vitally important task of

bringing those ex-prisoners of
Franco back to Canada. Ail over
the country committees are work-
ing overtime, since this is the most
serious emergency since the big
group came back in February,
their fares paid by the Spanisb
government,

ROCEEHDS from sociais held in

Vancouver, Lynn Valley, Dol-
larton and Sointula have come in
this week. It’s heartening to know
that these affairs are being planned
and we are anxious to Hear of
others.

ON’T forget: On Wednesday,

May 3, at 8 pm, in our offices,
we are holding a meeting of dele—
gates. If your organization has not
been represented before, ~please

We need your advice and assist-
ance.

YSC Spert Card
Proving Popular

In the wrestling events at the
Vaneouver Sports Club last Satur-
day night Johnny Lamehuk tool:
the measure of Frankie Rae in
the feature. Rae won the first fail
with a flying tackle but lost the
bout on a foul after Lamchuk
pinned him to the mat in the
fourth round. Rae, on leaving the
ring, incurred the razzing of the
erowd.

John Martin won from Billie
Masson in the fourth round of
their wind-up match with a series
of body butts. The bout was clean
and had the fans’ approval.

Glub champion Scotty Jackson
took the only fall in the third
round of his bout with G Kasa-
lanko of Haney. In the opening
bout Doc. Wilkes and Scotty Moran
wrestled three round to a draw.
Moran, who has just returned
from camp, will do better after a
few more bouts.

Scotty Jackson and Frankie Rae
will wrestle Billie Masson and
Johnny Lamechuk in a team match
on Saturday night.

DISTRICT COUNCIL

International Woodworkers
of America

An enthusiastic audience estimated at 4000 packed the
Vancouver Forum Saturday night on the occasion of the fifth
annual mass display of the Provincial Recreation and Physical
Education Centers and as the 1500 gymnasts swung onto the
own version of the spirited
Aweigh” the huge crowd cheered them to the echo.
Gymnasts of all nationalities dressed in white shirts and

blue shorts and others in natty athletic attire trooped out on the
floor behind long columns of ath-

“Anchors

letes carrying flags preceded by the
Union Jack.

The spectacles proved too much
for Premier T. D. Pattullo, as it
did the audience. He laid aside his
earefully written address, a speech
he had spent a great deal of time
writing, and stated:

“What is the use of trying to read
a formal address when I have the
inspiration right here before my
eyes.” The premier continued by
telling the huge gathering that Bri-
tish Columbia had set the example
for all of Canada to follow.

“This sight is a pleasure to the
eyes and an inspiration. I feel sure
that the future of our Dominion
is safe if we can leave it in the
hands of generations like these.”

There was not a lull in the whole
program from the grand march to
the closing number.

Over 500 women athletes went
through the fundamental symnas-
ties under the leadership of Mrs.
Hilda Keatley to the more difficult
numbers of ballet and folk dancing.

Mrs. Joan Horsfield’s Victoria
group of women athletes came in
for a big hand by presenting a
series of gymnastic displays.

Women athletes also provided
the audience with thrills in their
exhibition of vaulting, acrobatic
tumbling, bench and passive exer-
eises which were ably directed by
Mrs. Keatley, Miss Gatherine Horn,
Miss Bette McLeod and Mrs. Gwen
itenderson.

Whistles and cheers greeted the
men’s mat and springboard tumb-
ling exercises. One after another of
the young men jumped, twisted
and flipped through the air with
the grace and preciseness of cham-
pions. Ed. Kelter, EF. Alto, H. Gor-
don-Cooper, H. and M. Bennet were
in charge of the men’s teams.

AAU WRESTLING
TOURNEY SLATED

British Columbia’s amateur
wrestling championships in all the
weight classes will be determined
Friday and Saturday, April 28th
and 29th, when, with the sanction
of the Amateur Athletic Union of
Canada, the Provincial Recreation
Centres will conduct the 1939 pro-
wincial championships in the Pro-
Ree Athletic Club, 804 West Pender
Street, commencing at 8 o’clock
each night.

Already Jack Whelan, Canadian
champion, wearing the Vancouver
police colors, and Moon Cameron,
Vancouver city champion, have en-
tered the heavyweight division,
while other competitors are ex-
pected from city, Victoria and
Powell River clubs.

Two five-minute rounds (or
fail) will decide each bout.
