With fastball being what it is
this season, plans are underway
to have a fence built around the
ball park, but a fence 1s not all
that is needed: for if the fans
keep turnihg out like they have
in the past two games, there must
be stands for them to sit on. The
present stands are badly in need
of repair: Further, extra stands
will have to be built to accom-
modate the fans who, 1f they
have a seat will no doubt be will-
ing to pay for it.

It is felt by the officials of the
Cubs that action must soon be
taken to satisfy the patrons of
the team for without the fans,
the team could not operate.

Cub Ramblings

It is expected that by Sunday,
the Cubs will have three more
men in camp. Word has been re-
ceived that a third baseman,
Lenny Pine, will be arriving and
also a pitcher, Eddy Foychuk
from Lethbridge. Coach Mitchell

also informs. me’ that a. second
baseman, Johnnie Ircandia from
Trail, would be signed on.
Eric Bishop still leads the Cubs
at bat with @ 333 average.
Coach Mitchell will in all prob-
ability, reduce the squad tonight.

A Statement of Principles on the June 12 Liquor Plebiscite

Hicken was very effective in
this, his first appearance on the
mound. The three hits he did
allow were well scattered. He
walked four batters and struck
out seven. He ran into a bit of
trouble in the fifth inning how-

But good support from his team-
mates got him out of that tight

The voters at the provincial election on June 12 will be
asked to vote on this question in a province-wide plebiscite:

Are you in favor of the sale of spirituous
liquors and wine by the glass in éstablish-
ments licensed for such purpose?

yes [x] no [_]«

We believe the answer from the citizenry should be a
resounding ““YES!"’-—we believe our liquor laws in B.C.
are antiquated and poor—we believe liquor. by the glass
should be approved; and these are our reasons:

- OUR LIQUOR LAWS NEED
TO BE MODERNIZED:

THEY ENCOURAGE LAW-BREAKING
by forcing the average citizen who wishes
a glass of wine or a cocktail or bighball with
dinner in a public place. to have them
surreptitiously and in violation of the law.

THEY TEND TO CORRUPT YOUTH,
because they expose young people to the
example of adults winking at or actually
taking part in violating the law.

THEY IMPOSE UNFAIRLY UPON
PUBLIC OFFICIALS by requiring them
to administer and enforce unpopular and
unworkable laws.

THEY ADVERSELY AFFECT TOURIST
TRAVEL by denying visitors the hospitality
offered by other Canadian provinces an

by the neighboring states of Washington,
Idaho, and Montana.

THEY ARE, DISCRIMINATORY because
they (a) permit one class of persons—the

LIQUOR BY THE GLASS
SHOULD BE APPROVED:

IT PROMOTES TEMPERANCE by mak-
ing it unnecessary to buy a whole bottle
ip order to have one drink.

IT REDUCES LAW-BREAKING by
eliminating _ washroom drinking, reduces
hotel-room drinking. and wipes out the
bottle-under-the-table evil. “

IT MAKES _ POSSIBLE SERVING
LIQUOR AND FOOD TOGETHER,
conceded by everyone to be one of the most
temperate uses of spirits.

IT REMOVES THE PRINCIPAL
SOURCE OF INCOME FOR THE BOOT-
LEGGER and other shady characters in
the illegal traffic in liquor.

IT RAISES STILL FURTHER THE

wines and liquor by the glass, but forbid
others to do so; (b) similarly, they permit
one very limited type of establishment—
the private club—to sell wines and liquor

ments with which the clubs compete to do so.
