June races at Glenboro began under wet skies as forecasts predicted rain over two days. Persistent showers interrupted events and organizers adjusted schedules for the annual meet.
After a washed out start the track dried and by Thursday afternoon the program ran steadily. Patricia Brady led the 2 30 class with four starters while Glengarry and Barbara Baker also figure in the results. Doctor Cooper won the free for all in both heats and set a season best in the final heat. An indoor ball tournament failed to attract teams, while a nine inning exhibition saw Glenboro defeat Wawanesa 7 1.
The report notes walks and 12 batters struck out during play. It mentions Ross Lalonde calling balls and strikes and ongoing upgrades along the first base lines and third base lines. Additional work to the Little League ball diamond is referenced with a note to see the last page.
