STANDING RULES:
1.
First Game of Doubleheader shall
Joseph Bennett, president of the
American Little League, has an-
nounced the formation of
T-Ball
for
Massena youths.
The age group for
this,
new program
shall cover boys 7, 8, 9. Boy's who are
age 9 will be youth's who fail to make
our regular Little League Program and
will be placed on a
T-Ball
team.
The main purpose of the
T-Ball
Program is to help the individual boy
with the fundamentals of hitting and
fielding before graduating to the
regular Little League Program.
This new sport of
T-Ball
is growing in
popularity throughout the country so it
was felt highly- desirable to start this
program for our younger boy's to serve
as a farmr system before going into
Little League.
The-T^all^Programris-iomewhar
different in operation from Little
League as there is no pitching (pitcher
in position only), the batter hits the ball
from a Tee placed on home-plate. At
this age group it protects boy's from
contact from wild pitching and helps
the batter with his swing to build
confidence.
In addition to the pitcher in position,
regular infield, first baseman, second
baseman, third baseman, shortstop;
five outfielders, left fielder, center
fielder, right fielder and two rovers.
Excluded-is a catcher. This again
protects the boy from contact! '
Again, Mr. Bennett stresses firmly
that the main purpose of this program
is toteachlhese boys thefundamentals
of baseball, that being as a batter on
offense, to swing with a level swing
with the ball on the Tee, and to learn
the defensive plays on defense.
It must be pointed out that even
though this is a American League
_Program, all Massena youths are

FACTS FACE TO FACE:
Let's 4ace it parents, were running
out of daylight. Little League is close to
time permitted to play our games,
meaning you don't want your boy
playing in the dark. Do you? Well, we
don't.
Little League Congress in 1971 ex-
tended leagues to expand to
10
^ams if
desired. Beautiful, that's 30 boys.

boundaries of the American League or

Program. All games will be

Saturday evenings.
Four Warns will make up the T-Ball',
Program, with each team carrying a 20'
boy roster.
It is a honor for our program to have
four sponsors: American Legion,
Police Protective Association, Webb's
Diner and Sharlowr Arco.
Uniform for

shall include a
heavy T-shirt with Little League em-
blem and sponsors name and hat. —-
Many hours of planning have gone
towards this program
to,
be a success,~

SnowFellat
Snow Ridge
Turin
—
One all-time.snowfall record
for the area east of Lake Ontario has
been broken and another is expected to
topple this year, according to the noted
climatoligist Livingston Lansing,
Boonville.
For Snow Ridge and the rest of the
Northern New York area affected' by
Lake Ontario storms, February's
snowfall was the heaviest ever
recorded, with a total of 100.5 inches for
that month.
Lansing expects that the total
snowfall for the Winter here will exceed
last year's record 303 inches. Snowfall
for the season to date is 270 inches. The
snow depth in the woods near Snow
Ridge today is about five feet.
Prompted by the tremendous amount
of snow and the expectation of more
snow to come, Snow Ridge
management announced yesterday
that the area will extend its full season
of operation until April 2.
After April 2, the ski area will be
closed weekdays but will be open on
weekends, on a limited basis, as ski
conditions warrant. A schedule of
reduced lift ticket prices will prevail.
T3o you realize it. That's 30 Massena
boys who could have this opportunity
never before realized, to be in this
wonderful sport of ours. What can we
do? We'll tell you what we can do. Have
lights installed in our parks
&
the Little
League officers
&
personnel will see to
it that 10 teams will play Little League
baseball.
Alsp,
our new
T-Ball
program could
be expanded to include
200
boys not just
-80,

We're doing our job, now let's see

someone else stand up

help us fulfill
our hope arid determination!
