Home My WebLink AboutClinton News-Record, 1953-10-01, Page 16]?AOSIXTEEN srottrirs Memberof the Clinton Turf Club will hold their second harn- ess horse race meet of the year on MendaY, Oetober 12 (Thanks- giving Day). There will be five races (ten heats) and the drivers will be fighting it out for a port- ion of the $1,500 in purses. As usual a starting gate will he used and any person who wishes to bet against the experts will find all the facilities required near the finish line, e 0 0 El CDCI Field Day was held last Friday. All the events were keen- ly contested and results will be found in another column of this edition. Individual champions that this corner wishes to congrat- ulate are: senior boys, Bruca Ash- down; intermediate boys, Larry Jones; junior boys, Ron Hugill; juvenile boys, Jack Watkins; sen- ier girls, Joyce Hawkins; inter- mediate girls, Edith Jones; junior girl, Marjorie Goldsworthy, The field meet, although very successful from a contestant view- point, was quite disappointing from the Spectator angle, We sympathize with the teachers who put so much time into organiz- •ing the annual event. rt must seem that the work involved is rather futile when only about '25 percent of the student body stay to cheer their favourites on to 'victory. The remainder use field day as another hoilday and take off for parts =known. This writer would venture to predict culTroN NWS -RECORD THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1953 that if the students continue to show so little interest in the clay that field day will be 'eventually discontinued, as has been the fate of the county meet that only a few short years ago was one of the big sporting items on all the district high schools. Eal El Auburn's juvenile baseball team are deserving of a pat on the back. They have captured the Ontario Baseball Association, juv- enile "D" championship, Thie is the second year in a row that this team has brought provincial honours to the little town to the north. Last year they won the Midget "D" crown. .According to Bill Craig, the team's manager, the boys will be feted in true championship form later on this year, He added that since the boys had received jack- ets and crests last year that ban- quet and the crest would be the order this year. Where they will put the crests poses as another problem because it was practically the same group of boys who won the hockey championship of that district last year and the league presented them with crests for that feat. E E) Prospects for an Intermediate hockey team this year seem to be brighter although to use Manager Bert Gliddon'e phrase "things are still in the air." Some players have been contacted and since RC- AF Station Clinton will not be en - CAN'T GET TICKETS for the GAME? •>.%••.,P.4*••• ...See it on the new 1954 Badminton Club Has First Practice The initial •gathering of the Clinton Badminton Club met on Tuesday evening in the auditor- ium of the Town Hall, Clinton, for organization and for games. Those present were Murray Draper, president of the club; Jean Garon, Larene Garon, John Gilbank, Elva McEwan, P. J. Mc- Cauley, secretary -treasurer of the club; Bev Boyes, Doug Fleischau- er andeMarie Lee. With a good badminton season just beginning, anyone interested in the sport for participation or spectator purposes, is urged to come out to the Town Hall each Tuesday and Thursday evening. The more people that come to these evenings, the better the badminton season will be. tering a team it is hoped*that the Colts may be able to obtain en- ough players to enable them to ice a serious contender for group honours. ED El CI Football came to CDCI yester- day, with the Redmen travelling to Wingham for the first game of the current campaign. If the score of the first game (Clinton 29, Wingham 0) is any indication of the season then CDCI will be a team that will take a lot of beating. PUC Held Regular Meeting Tuesday All members of the Public 'Ut- ilities Commission met in the PUC office on Tuesday evening, or the regular September meet- ing. Chairman Hugh R. Hawkins presided. The request from Alex Powell for water, sewerage and hydro to his new garage now in the Process of construction on High- way 4,south of the town, was granted partially. Water and hydro can be supplied. However, the location makes it difficult and highly expensive both for the PUC and for Mr. Powell to consider putting in town sewer- age. The superintendent was re- quested to investigate the possi- bilities of :moving a pole at the rear door .of Eartliff's restaur- ant, on. request from the owners. The pole considerably handicaps the restaurant owners when loading and un -loading trucks. Proposal from. the CNR to raise the rent on property being used by the PUC as a pole yard, from $10 to $15 per year was accepted. SAVE MONEY.
