The local nine won that right by eliminating Elora last night in the fourth game of a best of three series, two games had resulted in ties. Last evening on the local diam- ond there was little doubt from the fourth inning on, Clinton scor- ed three runs in that inning to add to the one that had scampered a- cross the plate in the third to give them a 4-0 edge, a lead that was never seriously threatened. runners trying to steal invariably ended somewhere m centre field with the runner racing all the way to third, Muir and Avruskin each hit saf- ely on two occasions, one of Muir's hits being a• long triple to deep centre, The juveniles did commit three errors but none of the bobbles had any bearing on the game and the team as a unit played excellent ball defensively, Clinton AB R H John Hartley, 2b 4 2 3 Murray Colquhoun, 3b 5 1 0 Bab Garon, if .... 5 1 0 Ron Carter, ss .. 5 3 1 Rick Elliott, cf 4 0 2 Bill Carrick, rf 4 1 3 Jerry Holmes, 1b 4 0 0 Don Denomme, c 4 1 1 Ron Hugill, p .. 3 1 0 38 10 10 Elora ABR II Playford, 2b, p (6th) 3 1 0 Dore, rf 3 0 0 Dickson, rf (5th) 2 0 0 I3erryman, 1b 4 1 1 Muir, p, 3b (6th) 5 1 2 Israel, 3b, ss (6th) 3 0 0 S.

He fanned eight and allowed five hits besides pitch- ing great ball to get himself out of the few tight spots that came his way, The eight walks that Ron issued were the cause of his trou- bles in most innings but a couple fielding gems helped him bout. Ron Carter connected in the six- th for along home run that scored Hartley and Colquhoun ahead of him, He also grabbed a low liner in the fifth to retire the side with Elora runners filling the bases. Hugill helped his own cause in the sixth when he grabbed an at- tempted bunt in the air and fired to first for the twin -killing, leav- ing Muir on third to end anoth- er Elora threat. Bill Carrick and John Hartley each collected three safeties to be the most consistent batters; Rick Elliott belted a triple for the only other extra base blow of the game, Muir pitched superb ball for Elora, fanning 14 men, but his sup- port was shaky.

(At Clinton, Thursday, Aug, 13) The second game of the WOAA semi-finals saw Clinton Juveniles rally in the final innings to earn a tie and maintain their one -game edge over Elora. The game had to be called at the end of the sixth inning because of darkness, The game was a bitter pitchers battle all the way. Ron Carter allowing but two hits only to be matched liy Muir'g neat three -hit effort. Both pitchers struck out eight batters. Elliott, Hartley and Cowan were the local men to reach base safely, Elliott's triple being the only ex- tra base blow of the game. Muir and„ Playford received credit for Elora's hits.

Big Turnout At Bowling Jitney An excellent turnout attended the Clinton Lawn Bowling Club's to go .all ouut for the tieing run, with the winning run being nipp- ed at the plate for the third .out. Jack Cowan started on the mound for Clinton but was taken out with one man out in the sec- ond. He had walked eight men in the innings he worked. Ron Carter came on in the second and finished the game allowing only two hits. Cowan couldn't master any control and as a result Elora had built up a 5-1 lead, Johnny Hartley with two hits led the Clinton attack with single- tons going to Colquhoun, Carter, Elliott and Denomme. Murray Col- quhoun very nearly became the hitting star of the game when he belted a lusty triple in the top of the sixth putting Clinton one run to the good. Elora, after their big first two innings were kept well in check until the final frame when they threatened dangerously. Muir, pit- ching his third straight game con- tinued his mastery, dolling aut only six hits.
