Cleanup man Ron Livermore fulfilled his duties to perfect- ion in the seventh inning of the Beigrave tilt with a boom- ing two-run homer to give the locals their win. The visitors started off with a 2-0 lead in the first frame off Monty Motomura as Dow and Shield cracked out singles and were aided by a Clinton error. Clinton gave up another run in the top of the third when Elston circled the paths follow- ing a awlk, but the home crew came back with four of their own in the bottom half to take over the lead.

On the NHL All Star team will be Frank Mahovlich, Eddie Shack, Tim Horton, Bob I3aun, Bob Pulford, Billy Harris, Bob NGaervdinner, PllteSulCliv°anna,chReords SCal eli- ing and Jack Foley. This game promises to be the softball attraction of the year in this area. A crowd of 7,000 was on hand in London recently to see this team in action and the largest crowd in many a year is expected Saturday night at the Goderich Ball Park when the teams meet under the lights for a game starting at 8:30 p.m. The Goderich Bissets have Stan Doherty on the mound to face the All Stars and this game promises to be a real thriller as the Hockey All Stars are just as much at home on the diamond as they are on skates. Youngsters are urged to get there early to get autographs and pictures of their favourite stars, Admission for this stellar at- traction will be; adults $1.00 and children, 50c. Larry Jeffrey, famous rookie right winger of the Detroit Red Wings, who lives in Goderich, will be umpiring on the bases and Dennis Riggin, sub-goalie for the Detroit Red Wings, who comes from Kincardine, will be umpire behind the plate.

Motomura wa s in complete control all the way on the hill, allowing only one Seaforth man to reach first base as he came through with an almost perfect pitching chore, Meanwhile, his mates pound- ed the ball all over the lot. Ron McKay staged the setting for the tilt when he hit the first pitch of the game for a home run and Seaforth had dif- ficulty retiring,,the locals after that.

One Bad Inning Playing in Wingham, Satur- day, the locals watched White- church score seven runs in the fourth inning to gain the mar- gin of victory in their 10-3 win. Except for the bad frame, the locals matched their hosts, each time scoring one run in the seventh and two in the eighth. Bob Welsh was the leading hitter for Clinton, pounding out a single and a home run and scoring two of the three runs, Bob Mann scored the other tally, picking up a single prior to the circuit clout. Mait Edgar and Len Faw- cett also had singles in the seventh to drive Welsh around the paths. Other players picking up singles were Bob Livermore and Doug McDougall.

(By Karen Schefter) Although perhaps the swim- ming pool looked a consider- ably lot cooler in the 90 degree temperature, 70 children took part in the joint Mock Track and Field Meet held at the Community Park, Friday. Upon arrival the children were divided into eight teams, each represented by a colour, the groups being comprised of juniors, intermediates and sen- iors. The various events were these: wheelbarrow race, crab race, discus throw with paper plates, variation of the stand- ing broad jump, shotput with balloons and a javelin throw using drinking straws. After each set of events, both The hot, humid weather has been keeping Clinton youngsters in the cool confines of the Cl- inton Community pool this summer but they certainly hav- en't been only playing. Under the watchful eye of swim instructor, John Slavin, and his assistant, Brenda Ho- muth,' many of the youngsters have learned to swim — or swim better. This was in evidence on Mon- day when Red Cross examiner John Reid, a cadet officer at RCAF Clinton, tested the youths in the various divisions, and of the 34 who tried tests, all passed. Due to the rigid tests set up by the Red Cross, this is indeed a very enviable record and John was indeed justified in' noting he was "mighty proud." Four senior boys started the day off on the right foot for the local. swimmers when they went through their paces in grand style. They were followed into the water by 19 successful inter- mediate swimmers and 11 jun- iors. The other classes at the pool were tested' by the staff and many were advanced into the next course which begins in August. The results of the tests were as follows, with the swimmers listed under the categories in which they were successful. Senior Peter Black, Ken Currie, Is- aac Bottema and Gary Deline. Intermediate Dennis Deline, Lyle Steep, Linda Faye East, Patsy Ball, Linda Switzer, Sandra Steep, Wendy Holmes, Judy Finley, Raymond Kennedy, Allan Bell- chambers, Mike Elliot, Harold Newland, Ove Christensen, Gor- don Merrill, Jack McMichael, Jerry Lobb, Brad Kempston, Bjarne Christensen, Richard the contestants and leaders had a ten-minute break to replenish, their energy, quench their thirst and check the scoreboard to see which team was winning. The results of the day were as follows—Juniors: wheelbar- row race, Debbie and Neil Col- quhoun; Patti Kay and Robin McAdam; Ruthy Neilans and Pam Peterson; crab race, Neil Colquhoun, Patti Kay, Douglas Riehl; discus, Robin McAdam, Janice Smyth, Jack Bender; shot put, Janice Smyth, Berti Amsing, David Hanley; javelin throw, Beverly Lyn Miller, Jan- ice Smyth, Nancy Lyn Colson.
