The
Fifth
| Quarter

Weather permitting, the first
baseball games of the season will
get under way this week for the
grade school boys. The number of
teams in the four leagues totals
%. The original count was 20 but
the st. Leo's school entry was re-
called at the twelfth hour, so the
four-circuit affair will operate with
seven teams in each league.
This is a fine representation of
the city schools in the spring sport,
topping last years number by
three. 1t just about completes a
banner year for the graders. There
were % football teams, 27 basket
ball squads, 19 entries in the school
swimming meet, and the track and
field meet shows promise of a full
house. The girls leagues showed
total of 13 basketball teams and
18 squads for the young ladies'
softball division.
In watching the boys perform
on .he diamond, anyone with an
interest in the sport will notice
some real talent in the playing
of individual youngsters. What
they see-and what is often miss
ed by the casual fans q little
arm doing wonderfully we'll what
big arm finds little difficulty
in doing.
To play baseball according to
standard regulations demands
plenty of skill and finesse, and
fhe regulations of the graders
are standard. OF course there are
a few rules that are modified
and one or two that are dropped.
For example, the batter is out on
a third strike even though the
catcher doesn't hold the ball,
where ordinarily he could at.
tempt TO run TO first base. This
change and fhe rule which does
not a!iGw iae stealing of home
are very practical: The position of
catcher on a baseball team is a
tough one. These rules, designed
TO help the grade school player
in the game, are changed by
common eonsen. ef the coaches
and are based on long years of
experience.
Every now and then an iadivid.
Ual will criticize the idea with
the frite old point that, If we're
going TO teach them the game
we might as we'll do il the right
way" After ALL" he usually
continues, when they get in high
school :"
Well, that person almost always
gets his answer from someone who
is familiar with the purpose of
the program. It's true that boys
should be taught the fundamentals
of any game and taught to do a
thing right, but it is also true
that the games should produce en-
joyment for the boys. When the
games are so intricate that they are
too difficult to engage in, then they
cease to be fun. And as far as the
boys going to high school-well, it
is hoped that they all do, but we
feel quite certain that their ath-
letic careers in any high school
won't be impaired by the modifi-
cation of a few rules that make
their grade school games more in
teresting and enjoyable.

Parking Meters
Present Problem
For Village Dads
Agreement With State
Prevents Angle Parking
On Part Of Main Street

Every effort is being made by
the council of the village of Cald-
we'll to have an agreement re-
scinded, which was made with
the Ohio department of highways
in l948.
The agreement was drawn up
at the time Main street received
extensive repair. The street was
widened and received "black
top" surface. The state agreed to
cooperate with the village in fin
ancing the project because state
route 78 joins Main street from
East street west to Young street,
where it turns south in the di-
rection of the county Playground.
The financial agreement was
drawn up with the condition that
the village prohibit parking on
the north side of Main street,
from West street to Lewis street,
and only parallel parking to be
permitted on the other side in
this same area. The agreement
continues in this manner: No
parking on either side from
Lewis street to Young street.
From West to East street, no
angle parking on either side but
parallel parking on both sides.
If angle parking is permitted on
one side of the street, between
West and East streets, there
should be no parking at all on
the other side of the street.
According to state highway
officials, the above parking ar
rangements are necessary to per-
NIT two freely moving traffic
lanes on state route rs through
Caldwell. From East street to
West street, Main street is As
feet wide and from West street
to Lewis, Main street is 81 feet
wide. There is no state law pro-
hibiting angle parking on state
routes if it does not interfere
with the free flow of traffic.
Parking meter posts have been
installed along the south side of
the square according to the angle
parking pattern. If the state re-
fuses to alter any of the provis-
ions in the agreement made on
Sept. Z, le48, every other meter
would be taken out, and only
parallel parking permitted there.

nings.
Following months of discussion
