BROOKINGS-HARBOR PZLOT, BROOKINGS. OREGON Thursday. March 15. 1051 anese lilies are diseased and are infested with some bugs or a worm which makes them uncer tain quantities. The southern lilies are disease-ridden. "Brought back my sister-in- laws, who hadn’t been together since 1917, and the one who had never been out of Indiana, had many thrills on the trip. "Visited many Rotary clubs on the trip. I still like the smaller clubs because there is where you feel the real fellowship so noted , in Rotary." Mr. Funk closed his talk about the trip with a few remarks of his visit to the Omaha stock- yards, now’ almost the largest in the world. "You must make that trip if you are ever near Omaha —you’ll be surprised." ...New Board Named John L. Mumbower, Ross Put nam and Fred Moore were named to the board of directors, at an election held Tuesday. With Lynn Hampton, Merle Hanscam, Lloyd Moss and Pete Lesmeister, make up the board of directors, which will name club officers at a meeting soon. The club voted to assume the sponsorship of the local ambu lance, and will make a drive to either get another or to have the old one thoroughly recondi tioned. A committee will report at the next meeting its recom mendations. Brookings Pelicans Must Re-Build For Coming Season Moguls of the Southern Ore gon Baseball league met March 4 at Grants Pass and formulated plans for league play in 1951. Representing the Brookings Pelicans at this confab was Pete Lesmeister, business manager of the local team, who reports that even in face of the war conditions the league will go ahead with a regular schedule. Rogue River has definitely withdrawn from the league but in their place will be Coquille in case the latter is not tied up at present with the Southwest Ore gon League. It is now indicated that this group will not have a league this year. Some of the outstanding play ers of the 1950 Pelicans will be lost to the team by way of their call from Uncle Sam. However, with the advent of new indus try in this community, it is felt that there should be many new ¿idditions to this year’s club. Connie Holzgang, second base man, will probably be in the local picture as will Bill McLean, out fielder who is currently starring on the maple court for Southern Oregon College of Education. Plans for bleacher seats at the local diamond are in the making and these should be ready by1 May 20, which is the date set Mr. and Mrs. Francis Eastburn for the opening game here.
