Clinton News-Record, 1960-08-18, Page 9'Clinton should be mighty proud of their minor
baseball teams this season. All teams won group
titles. Along with group championships the Legion-
sponsored Juveniles and the Kinsmen-sponsored
Peewees are also WOAA "C" champions in their
respective age groups. The. Fish and Game Club
Bantams won their group and now are in a series
with New Hamburg, playing at the local park at
six o'clock this evening. The Juveniles go to South-
ampton tonight in •OBA playdowns; return game
here Saturday afternoon at 2.30.
The best way for the citizens of Clinton and
district to reward these boys—and the various team
officials and service club workers—is to get out
and watch these games from now on. The at-
tendance at league and playoff games has been
disappointing. Only the few "faithfuls" attend,

Varna Men Meet
Kippen, Auburn
Tie One; Lose One
(Varna Correspondent)
Varna's softball team played
two games last week losing to
Auburn 13 to 5 and tying Kip-
pen 15 all.
The game on Wednesday,
August 10, with Kipper was a
see-saw affair with first one
team in the lead and then the
other. Kippen moved ahead
easily with a 7-1 lead. Varna
came back strong in the latter
innings. However a home run
by Keith Lovell in the seventh
inning tied up the game.

year. Both losses have been to
Auburn while they have one
win over the boys from the
north.
Varna plays in Brucefield on
Thursday, August 18 and hopes
to have a game in Varna on

is buying new sweaters and hope

Yesterday
Yesterday afternoon in Walk-
erton, the Clinton Kinsmen Pee-
wee baseball team officially won
the WOAA Peewee "C" champ-
ionship.
The Clinton kids beat Walk-
erton 13 to 1, on a fine pitching
chore by Brad Dutot. He gave
up only two hits, struck out nine
batters and issued only three
walks in the seven-inning game.
Clare Magee was Clinton's
big hitter with five for five, in-
cluding a home run in the sixth,
Bill Thompson also got a homer
and a double; and Larry Pickett
a double and single. Other hit-
ters were Jim Livermore, John
Irwin, Cam Colquhoun and
Dutot, all with singles.
After the game, the Walker-
ton management informed Clin-
ton that they would not be play-
ing the return game scheduled
for Saturday afternoon here.
Therefore Clinton wins the
WOAA Peewee "C" champion-
ship for 1960. Clinton now ad-
vances in OBA playdowns.

On Tuesday •afternoon, Aug-
ust 16, a beloved citizen of
Bayfield was laid to rest in the
person of Lewis Hugh Duncan
MacLeod. He died at West-
minster Hospital, London, on
August 13.
The funeral was held from
his late residence on Louisa
and Colina Streets. The service
was in charge of the Rev. E. J.
B. Harrison and interment
made in Bayfield Cemetery.
Pallbearers were Walter
Westlake, Malcolm Toms,
Charles Toms, Lloyd Making,
Edward Sturgeon, •and Thomas
Castle, Sr.
Flower-bearers: Hugh Mac-
Leod (Kingsville), Donald Mac-
Leod, James Brock (Port Dov-
er), Thomas and Donald Wright
(Detroit), Thomas Castle, Jr.
Born in Bayfield, February
28, 1888, the deceased man was
a son of a pioneer fisherman
and boat-builder of this port,
Hugh MacLeod 'and his wife
Annie MacLeod.
At the age of 12 years he
was sailing. Coming of a long
line of sea-faring folk, the
blood of the Viking was strong
in his veins. He learned to esti-
mate the wind, waves and cur-
rents, and he became an auth-
ority on lake lore.
He ran true to the tradition
of the Clan MacLeod in pride
of his Highland ancestry and
loyalty to the Crown. (His fa-
ther had been born on Lewis
Isle, after which his mother
named him.)
He served with the Canadian
Army 1914-1918, and went
overseas.
On his return, he joined his

brother, the late W. J. MacLeod,
In fishing on. the "Helen Mac-
Leod"- the last sail boat built
by their father. When his bro-
ther bought a new boat, Lewis
took over the "Helen -Mac-
Leod."
In 1925, with his brother
John's help, he built the "Helen
MacLeod II".
For 20 years he sailed her in
the commercial fishing busi-
ness. Renowned for his daring
rescues made with the "Helen
MacLeod II" he never under-
estimated the peril of the ele-
ments but instinctively knew
where and how to guide his
craft.
Also, many a summer visitor
enjoyed a sail on a nice even-
ing in the "Helen MacLeod II".
He enjoyed a large acquaine
tame in marine circles wherein
he was known as the finest
sailor on Lake Huron's shore.
He was also widely known as
Captain "Louie" in Professor
Fred Landon's book, "Lake
Huron".
In this unassuming home-
loving man with his happy
smile, generous to a fault,
walked one of the truly great
of this earth.
It was on the same day that
President Roosevelt was strick-
en in 1945, Capt. L. H. D.
MacLeod suffered a stroke
which partially paralyzed his
right side. He was fishing at
Erieau at the time. It was not
easy for Mr, MacLeod to stay
on land. Through this restric-
tion he was supported by a
devoted wife and loving family.
His beloved boat was beach-
ed for several years. Then Jack
Miller, Detroit, bought her for
the Detroit Historical Society.
In 1955 this Huron boat, built
to scale on schooner lines, was
renovated and re-named the
"Anna S. Piggott" and put in
charge of the curator of the
museum of Great Lakes Hist-
ory at Detroit.
The late L. H. D. MacLeod
had charge of the signal lights
until these visual warnings
were withdrawn by the Federal
Department of Marine Affairs.
In January 1959, "Louie" fell
-and fractured his hip at his
home, He was removed to
Westminster Hospital, London,
where he has been ever since-.
He had an intense love for his
native village for which he pined
during his absence. Death was
due to a heart attack.
He was a Presbyterian and
an honorary Member of LOL
No. 24,
On March 8, 1921, he was
married to Miss Marjorie Rus-
sell who with three sons and
three daughters survive. They
Robert, London; John,
