On Wednesday, they travel- led to Exeter and were handed a 9-8 setback as they ran into trouble in the second inning, al- lowing the hosts eight runs on six hits. The locals settled down dur- ing the next five frames hold- ing Exeter to only one run while collecting seven of their own, but they couldn't pick up the equalizer.

Fremlin and Colqu- Mile were the long-ball hitters, each collecting a triple. On the road again, Friday, the local nine were nipped 4-3 in a close fixture in St. Marys.

The board also authorized the hiring of a part time clerk- typist for the vocational guid- ance office, due to the heavy amount of record keeping now entailed in this department. Approval was also given to a suggestion that a new sec- retary be hired for the prin- cipal to replace Miss Skeggs, who will be resigning on Sep- tember 27. Miss Skeggs suggested her replacement start on Septem- ber 3 so she could be trained and also so Miss Skeggs could supervise the operation of the bookstore and the returning of surplus books. The principal noted that it would be "quite a handful" to have a new secretary take over this job as' soon as she started. In other business the board: Received a letter of apprecia- tion for allowing the Clinton Square Dance club to use the gymnasium facilities during the past year. Learned that a request into the types of evening classes had been answered for the Civil Service Commission by the bus- iness administrator. Hired Donald Cooper and George E.

Preparing for the first round of the WOAA playoffs, the Clinton midgets remained un- defeated with a 12-1 win over Exeter on Tuesday night. The win was the fifth straight for the locals and they have now scored 89 runs in those tilts. Although they managed only six hits, Clinton picked up six runs on the wildness of the Exeter hurler and some costly miscues.

He explained that due to the increased enrollment over what had been expected when the budget was drafted, some ac counts would naturally rue higher than expected. The Blyth man noted that five more teachers had been hired than planned and at an average salary of slightly high- er than what had been esti- mated. The committee is hoping for a mild fall so some of the fuel account can be transferred to departments that will over spend, he stated. He said the committee would meet again in October to see if more funds would be avail- able for needed maintenance work on the old building.

Thanks to a generous don- ation from the Clinton Kinsmen, the group has also installed slides, swings and teeter - totters in the three parks and as can be seen, the equipment is popular.

(News-Record Photo) (Continued from page one) etc., etc. . . . This of course is one of the major faults as We see it with owning a cottage, as there always appears to be something that has to be done and this cuts into the leisure time considerably , . A friend of ours down Exeter way is a prime example of this, as he spends each of his weekends at the cottage painting, cutting the lawn, trimming his hedge and other sundry, but time con- suming tasks. In fact, this character starts in June and by September, when it is time to close the place up for another year, he ,is usually finished the work. Only trouble is, by next year he has to start all over again repairing the harsh at- tack on the grounds by winter . . . Just doesn't seem right for some reason. DROPPED over to Bayfield on Tuesday night to attend the annual rummage sale and again we lost faith in the mental capacities of many women . . While there were quite natur- ally some bargains to be had, we spotted a few ladies carry- ing around purchases that will probably quickly find a place in their attic until next year when they donate it back to the sale and rush in to buy something else that they'll realize they don't need the minute they get it home . . . However, there is something about a rummage sale that intrigues people (esp- ecially women we notice) and the age old cycle will continue for many years to come . . . In fact, we can hardly wait until next year when we can donate back a "tremendous buy" we latched onto. BY THE KIND permission of Mrs. John Parker we had a sneak preview of the articles on display and when the an- nouncement came that the doors were to be opened, we thought we might get a picture of a few people coming in, so we set up the camera just in- side the door . . . What fol- lowed when the doors opened is something we'll probably long remember, and it remind- ed us very vividly of the last Western movie we saw when a herd of spooked cattle came charging towards the heroine, who was snatched from certain death only seconds before they reached her, by the hero . . . Unfortunately, there were no heroines or even heroes on the spot to grab us and we manag- e dto save ourself from the on- slought by employing a few tricks we picked up on the football field. (Running the other way when a big fellow came charging through the line.) WHILE MOST people natur- ally envy school teachers and the fact they get a nice two- month vacation in the sum- mer (to say nothing of that week at Christmas and Easter) it should be noted that such is not the case at CHSS this year . . . With the big change- over coming in September, Principal D. J. Cochrane and L. R. Maloney, business admin- itrator, are both on duty along with some of the other teach- ers and Vice-Principal Robert Homuth . . . So, while most schools are locked tightly for summer vacation, CHSS is still a hive of activity and persons with any queries on courses or with other business matters may reach either the principal or business administrator on most days at the school . . . In fact, due to the fact they won't have the usual vacation, per- sons with any matters to dis- cuss should be advised to do it while the men are at school, so they can at least have their evenings free without any in- terruptions, Did You fitifoFf Know ? 42. or EVERYBODY WINS When a member of CLINTON COMMUNITY CREDIT A UNION LIMITED Current Interest Rate on Savings-4% with Free Life Insurance on Savings up to $2,000.00 THEN These Savings Are Loaned Out to Fellow Members to Help Them Meet Their Needs and Solve Their Problems.
