Ball Season Opens
Fairview's 1949 baseball team came from behind to win its
opening league game against Hines Creek 5-3 in 6 1/2 innings
here on Wednesday evening. Making its debut in the North Peace
League, the H.C. team made a creditable effort and with the
breaks might have gone home a winner.
It
was a cold, damp night especially for the pitchers.

TAKES BASEBALL FINAL
In
a sudden-death baseball final here Sunday afternoon, Fairview coasted to an
8-0 score over Grimshaw and copped the North Peace River league crown for
1949. The MacNamara trophy goes with the victory.
John
Smart on the mound for Fairview set Grimshaw down for three hits in the nine
innings and was in full command throughout. Laurie Shaw worked behind the
bat. Fairview's infield was clicking and turned in two neat double
plays.
Ed
Konowalyk, a good pitcher, made a creditable stand on the hill for Grimshaw,
but his infield support was erratic and his troops showed no talent whatever
at the plate. (The Fairview Post, September 14, 1949)
