Dashwood Defeats Clinton 5-2
Mitchell Plays Colts Here Tonight
tight pitching .duel exploded,
in the faces of the .Clinton Colts
during the Dashwood seventh, in-
ring last Friday night with the
Tigers posting three runs. They
went on to win the Huron -:Perth'
baseball game 5-2,
1"t had been a. very close game
until the seventh. Steve Mitre
Who pitched all but the seventh,
for the Tigers hadn't allowed a
hit and Bob Youngblut and Bill
Craig, who came on in relief in the
fourth, had been tagged for just
two safeties. Craig weakened in
the seventh when Jim Hayter lead
off with a single. Wein tagged
the second pitch for another -single
and Bob Hayter walked. Mitro
fanned, J.' Hayter came home on
a wild pitch with all runners ad-
vancing.. Regier banged another
single to centre to score Wein and
Bob Hayter. Dashwood's. other
runs were both scored by Mitre,
one in the fourth and the other in
the sixth.
Although the Colts scored two
runs they were only able to get
one scratch hit. Bill Craig spoil-
ed the no -hit bid in the eighth
with his single through short.
It wasn't the extra fine pitch-
ing that caused the Colt hitting
famine as much as the good sup-
port that Mitre received. Ih• the
first lining McKay nal 4. Wil-
son laced savage hits into' right
field but Regier came to his pitch-
er's aid with two brilliant run-
ning catches.
The fielding of -the Clinton team
was very good. The infield came
up with one neat double play and
could have clicked on two others
only to have the base umpire .give
the decision` to the Dashwood•un-
t from amid strong protests fr m the
Clinton bench. Clinton's outfield
also played well with Ray Bieman
anad Fergy McKay making fine
catches of well hit balls,
Bob Youngblut made his first
start on the mound after only one
practice and didn't allow a hit.
The Colts meet Mitchell in their
next home game tonight, Thurs-
day, with the game set to get un-
der way at 6.30 P.m. They deserve
your support.

(Continued from Page One)
Arriving back at the main in-
tersection, Cardiff mounted the
back of a panel truck, waited for
shouts to cease, and then launched
his victory address. He had gain-
ed a majority of 3,640 votes, the
largest since his entry to the
House in 1940.
Speaking slowly, he voiced his
appreciation of the acclaim he
was ,receiving, and asked that con-
sideration be given for the loser in
the campaign. Then he said,
"There's one person to blame for
the teen to Conservatism through-
out the nation and that's C. D.
Rawet"
The sheen that Went tip at this,
once again stopped all chance for
a speecle and then a pipe band
set lip 'a stirring air, and Cardiff
had to wait until it stopped. There
was good attention to the speech,
given in Mr. Cardiff's usual dawn-
to -earth manner,
Signing autographs, shaking
stands, and moving slowly thro-
ugh the crowd to his car, the win -
nee Was sobs on his Way, to God-
erich, followed by an estimated
100 ears, where another reception
was given him. In the COtmty
town, Bill Lumley provided the
motive power for 'a wheelbar tev,
in 'which Mr. Cardiff was wheeled
around the 'square, fallneeed again
by supporters 'n foot, Alta stirring

record has been set in the Clinton
school this spring. Only one new
teacher hasbeen required, out of
a total of 26 teacilets. All others
on the staff has signed contracts
for next year.
The Clinton District Collegiate
Institute Board, meeting last night
decided to purchase 100 more new
chairs 'for the assembly hall.
Advice received from the• Ontar-
io Department of Education re-
minded the Board that the cadet
work was appreciated by the De-
partment, but it was to be carried
on under a voluntary policy, and
must be extra -curricular. Princi-
pal E. A. Fines explained that the
demands of the Department of
National Defence had been in-
creasing, and if all of the program
were fulfilled, it needed a good
deal more time than was given in
Clinton. Through the year train-
ing has been carried out during'
"tenth period" which is the last
one in the day, and' devoted to
extra -curricular activities on Wed-
nesdays.
