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.

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. ‘May Day Greetings B.C. COAST DISTRICT COUNCIL "oe 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. Shatford Wins Cross-Country Race one Ashley Shatford ran the six-mile course through Stanley Park in 28 minutes, 7 seconds Saturday to win the Provincial Recreation Cen- ters’ cross-country championship. Gerald Sankey, last year’s winner, was eighty yards behind and he was followed by John Varilla and Elmer Hautalnoma of Haney. Margaret Slinn, North Vancou- ver, won the women’s two and a half mile race, with Mrs. Blackie Collins of West Yancouver second. f f é f p Uy f s U 4 p f f f f p p f 4 i) 4 p § p Pender Shoe Renew 520 West Pender Street We Make and Repair Shoes to your satisfaction and also dye them any color.
