Clinton's entry in the WOAA softball loop split a pair of games this week, trouncing Whitechurnh by a convincing 17-8 bunt and losing to Bel- grave by a close 1,441 score in a hard-hitting affair. The split in games left the locals with three wins and four losses to date in the league, Playing at home, Friday, Clinton had little trouble in posting the win over the White- church crew, pounding out 19 hits. They started out quickly in the tilt when Bob Livermore led off with a single and came romping home on Mait Edgar's booming homer, Clinton added six more in the second on singles by Livermore, Ron McKay and Bob Welsh, a double by Edgar and three er- rors by the visitors. Singles by Bill Craig, Ron Livermore, McKay and L. Pow- ell brought in three More tal- lies in the fourth and they add- ed another pair in the sixth on a single by Monty 1VIonti- mura and doubles by Doug Mc- Dougall and Bob Mann. Their final three runs came in the bottom of the eighth Vipers Move Into Second !n Kin Ball Loop The Tigers moved into sec- ond place in the Kinsmen pee wee houseleague this week when they posted a close 7-6 margin over the Giants. The loss spoiled the Giants bid to move into a tie with the idle Dodgers for the loop lead and dropped them back to third place. The Yankees won their first game of the season with an 11-7 margin over the still win- less White Sox in the other .game. On Friday, June 21, the White Sox tackle the loop leading Dodgers and on Wed- nesday the Tigers meet the Yankees. (Continued from Page One) work on the other parks at that time as well, but volunteers are still asked to meet at the Al- ma Grove park. Kin Donate Although t h e Recreation Committee had only $450 on their budget for park improve- ment and equipment, the Clin- ton Kinsmen have donated an additional .$650 for this partic- ular use. With it, Welsh plans to in- stall a set of three swings; a set of three teeter-totters, a large sand-box, a slide, and a muscle-building apparatus at both the Alma Grove Park and the Pinecrest Park in Winter subdivision. He suggested at the meeting as well that some Kinsmen had recommended that a slide, a sand-box and possibly a muscle- building set be added to the facilities at the community park. Welsh also presented plans at the meeting that showed his long-range plans for the Pine- crest and Alma Grove parks. Included in the plans is a wading pool at each park, a change room for the children, a picnic shelter and large game areas as well as the equipment being installed this year. The Recreation Committee decided as well to recommend to town council that the Pine- on a double by Montimura and singles by Powell and Craig Every player in the Clinton lineup ended up with at least one hit, while eight of the 11 had two safeties each, Montimura was clipped for. 13 hits by the Whitechurch crew, but he was tough in the clutch and with his mates hit-, ting freely, was never in seri- ous trouble in the contest. Kegniars. Missing With several regulars miss- ing for the Saturday night trip to Belgrave, the locals still put up a strong fight against the loop leaders, The score was tied up at 10 runs apiece going into the seventh frame before Belgrave, erupted for four tallies to take a lead they never relinquished, Clinton actually out-hit the winners by an 18-16 margin but left several runners stranded on base in the free-hitting af- fair. Consecutive singles in the first inning by L, Powell, Bob McDonald and Mait Edgar gave the locals a 2-0 lead and they held it until Belgrave plated three in the third to take a one-run margin. However, Clinton took a 4-3 lead in the fourth on singles by Bob Welsh, Reid Webb and a double by D, Bell. The lead again changed hands in the bottom of the fourth when Belgrave picked up five to • make it 8-4, but singles by Edgar, Ron Liver- more and ,Ron McKay brought in three more for Clinton to shave that lead to 8-7. The locals moved ahead by a 10-8 margin in their half -of the sixth with three more runs, but Belgrave knotted it up with two . of their own in the same frame. Five singles and one double gave the home team another four in the seventh and they allowed Clinton only one more in the eighth to protect the win. Bob McDonald, D.
