Clinton Wins. Pair In Three Outings
Conclude Schedule On Saturday Night
Four Lads Pass Senior Swim Testi
John Reid, right, an officer cadet at RCAF
Clinton and an examiner for the Red Cross swim-
ming tests, reports to four Clinton youths that
they have been successful in passing their stiff
senior tests. Besides having to demonstrate their
swimming abilities, the four had to relate and
demonstrate their life saving abilities. John Slavin,
'left, is the swim instructor at the Clinton pool
and the four from the left are: Peter Black, Ken
Currie, Isaac Bottema and Gary Deline. All young-
sters who tried tests on Monday were successful.

With only one tilt remaining
'in the regulax WOAA schedule,
Clinton is assured of finishing
with a better than .500 record
as they hung up two More Vic-
tories in Mree outings last
week.
This brought their winning
tOtal to 10 as against eight de-
feats
They started the week off
with a close 6-5 win over Bel-
grave on Wednesday, trounced
Seaforth by a whopping 20-0
count on Friday and were then
halted by Whitechurch in a
10-3 verdict, Saturday.
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.
Livermore. L. Powell, B. Cook
and Motomura were the scor-
ers, aided by a walk • and a
Beigrave error.
However, the lead was short-
lived as the northern crew ad-

Hockey Stars Play
In Goderich Saturday
The National Hockey League
All-Stars comprising members
Mostly of the World champion
Toronto lViaple Leafs Hockey
Club will be coming to Goderich
this Sattirday, August 3, for a
softball game with the Gode
rich Bissets, the local entry in
the Memorial Softball League.
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.
So all in all Saturday night
shapes up as a great evening
which you are urged not to
miss.—Adv. 31b

He will make his only ap-

While he probably knows how
to read a program now, the

has to pick his own colours for

Clinton wept down in order in
Me fifth and sixth frames, but
Bob Livermore led off in the
seventh with a single, and after
Doug McDougall and Bob Mann
had grounded out, Ron Liver-

asterfa I Game
Clinton had everything their
own way on Friday when they
hosted Seaforth and pounded
out their 20-0 win.
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.
Bob Livermore paced the at-
tack with a pair of home runs,
while B. Cook also contributed
with a four-base clout,
Third baseman D. McDoug-
all was the only local player
who failed to pick up a hit or
score a run in the contest.
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.
The local squad host White-
church at the local park on
Saturday and will then com-
mence group playoffs.

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.

Peter Black, Ken Currie, Is-
aac Bottema and Gary Deline.

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 team with the most
points was the Pinks with the
Blacks coming in as a close
second.,
Every participant, having re-

home to tell their parents how
they had won in the certain
events or how they had been
slightly edged out by someone
else — all of this adding up to
a most successful and delight-
