E’VE been hoping for quite a while to start a column on th-:and now that we’ve got a little space and a Tittle time he-rour opener, with a few comments: prospects aren’t bright for"regular appearance of this column as we always seem to find oth^
things to do. We feel a column is necessary,, however, as thex-X
always something going on in “the wonderful world of sports” b”contributions to this space will be appreciated—entire columns A

on a regular or occasional basis are welcome. Just give us a rixxoat EM. 6-5005.

To start in then: Chicago Shimpo is giving the Toronto Mus­
tangs a big build-up prior to the Easter weekend invitational
tourney . . . Geo. Hidaka, sportswriter and columnist for the Shimpo.
is quoted as follows in a recent issue: “. . .\ Mustangs, boasting of
probably the tallest nisei team in this continent ... feature^the
elongated Miyasaki boys. Herbie, 6’2” forward rated best nisei in
Canada. Brother Ken,. 6’4” center, helps control the backboard with
his other brother Roy, a 6’4” guard.” Easy on those statistics.
George—last we heard was 6’1”, 6’3” and 6T” respectively.
Also on basketball: Art Suzuki of London Central C.I. was
named as “best I faced all season” by AlhStar Gord Jeffrey of
Medway C.I. when All-Conference (London and District) teams
were picked last week by the London Free Press and the respective
school coaches. Suzuki was given honorable mention in the star
selections.
»
Racetrack columnist Joe Perlove of the Toronto Star passes
the tip that the Carl Lawson barn will have the horses to beat when
Dufferin park opens the Canadian horse racing season four weeks
Xrom now. Hiromi “Spud” Uyeyama will do most of the riding for
the Lawson barn . . . Uyeyama is “one of the better half-milers
on the board . . . 10-winners at Dufferin last spring, nine last fall
before leaving for Florida (where he rode as an apprentice at
Hialeah) .. . . finishing 16th . . . born in Vancouver, came east
after the war to go to commercial art school ... became interested
in riding . . . went to work in 1950 mucking out-stalls and walking
hots . . . first mount in ’51.” Said Spud: “I think this will be my
big year.”
Baseball’s just around the corner: Sub- Miike informs us that
Ed Mirvish of the flamboyant Bloor St. haberdashery known as
“Honest Ed’s” will sponsor the Nisei entry in the new Western
City Baseball League at Christie Pits ... last year’s Westemi
players will fonn the nucleus of the Honest Ed’s nine, and man­
ager Miike hopes to pick up the cream of the Sunday Nisei loop
. . . Maw Mori will help Sub as coach and first-sacker, and it is
expected that prospective players will include Aki Hayashi, Major
Fukumoto, Yuki Kameoka, Sho Mori . . . and from the Sunday loop,
Freddie Tanaka, Checker Nishimura, Hiro Izumi . . . Meanwhile,
Ed Hisaki is sending out a call for girls in Toronto for- softball
in all age groups . . . those interested should contact Keir Ikeda
(LL. 3872) or Liz or Ron Pearce (RO. 7-1996) . . .
