SPORTS For many years Traveller's Rest has been interested in sports activi¬ ties. One of our senior citizens, Howard England , played hockey and base¬ ball. Until quite recently reunions were held with the original hockey players. Bob played hockey in the early 1920's at North Bedeque on the Beaver Team. Some of the other players were Everett Phillips , Jimmie Clark, Heber MacQuarrie and Hartwell Condon . Baseball was played at Summerside and their team was called "The Red Socks". In the early thirties the school girls organized a softball team and played games against neighbouring teams. They proved good sports and enjoyed the game whether they won or lost. Down through the years different generations of boys have partici¬ pated in organized baseball games. Also in the early thirties, New Annan and 's Rest had a soccer team. Great interest was shown in the games and trophies and a shield were donated by Heath Strong , M.L.A ., Hugh Morrison , M.L.A . and Hon. A. E. MacLean . Members of the soccer team who resided in the dis¬ trict were: Halsey Gunning , Ronnie MacDonald and Clarence Marchbank . The field across the road from James Marchbank 's home was the location for many of these games. In 1934 the Soccer Team were Winners and were awarded the A. E. MacLean Shield and the Strong and Morrison Trophy .
