Wnere are the youlIiS Vi hey
West, between the ages of IL and
20, going to play baseball"
Many of you will say, Wickcrs
Stadium, that's why il was built
Your answer could be true, eX-
cept for one small detail. Under
the present rules of the Island
City League, any player who part
icipates in league games has to
be over the age of 20. Why?? That
question can only be answered by
the controlling members of the lea
que.
To give you the life of 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 10 throw, catch
or bat a ball. This goes on until
he reaches the age of eight. Then
he becomes eligible to piay in
Little League Competition. TIE is
only in that league till he becomes
IL.
He then graduates into the Amer
lean Legion League and this takes
him up to the age of II.
Where does he go from here?
That is the question l am asking.
When they approach the Island
City League to play, they say they
are too young. So he asks, what
can we do. / 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 little tired OF
witnessing one sided games and
sloppy playing.
Let's give these boys chance
to prove themselves. 1t won't cost
anyone penny. After all / be-
lieve that the sign in deep center
field at the Stadium reads. "Ded-
icated to the Youth of the City
of Key West"
Shall they play with the City
League or What's to become of
| them?
At the meeting of the Americn
Legion Baseball League the ques.
ton of sponsors was brought up.
When the call for players was is
sued by the managers to report to
Bayview Park last Wednesday
evening, group of over 60 boys
showed up.
The present rules only allow Is
boys on each team and SO far
there are only four sponsors for
this group of lads. Two more arc
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 hacker 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.
