Clinton .KinSMen Pee wees -
had things all their own way at •
the local park Monday as they
scored a 224 win over .Listpwel
to take a one game lead in the
WO4A. "B" .tinals,
Only thing in doubt at the
contest was whether or not
the visitors could get the local
lads out in most of the Seven
frames they played.
The hard-hitting locals poun-
ded out 12 hits in the encount-
er .and were aided in the on-
slaught by some shoddy field-
ing by the visitora, phis some
erratic pitching.
Clinton started out slowly in
the contest, taking a one-run
lead in the first inning when
Bob Miller lead off with a Walk,.
stole second, advanced on a
ground-out and came home on
Cam COlquhoun's single through
the infield.
They were held off the sheet
in the second frame but ex-
'ploded for eight runs in the
-third and regiStered 10 more in
the fottrth.
Bob Miller pounded out a
triple in the third, while Mike
Graham hit a four bagger to
supply most of the newer, Paul
Bartliff added a single and Lis-
towel chipped in for the rest
with three errors and two free
passes.
Clinton sent 14 men to the
plate in the fourth - frame as
they circled the bases with
reckless abandon to plate their
10 tallies.
Cam Colquhoun supplied most
of the power with a home run
and a triple in his two tries,
while John McPherson and
Greg Burns. hit a triple and
double respectively.
Singles came off the bats of
Miller, Rick Fremlin, Bruce
Schoenhals and Dave Cooper.
The locals rounded out the
scoring with three .more in the
fifth with Rick Fremlin picking
up the only hit.
Although the visitors commit-
ted several errors, the Clinton
nine, under the guidance of
coach Ken Clynick, were hit-

thrilled the crowd of over 600
on Saturday with their precis-
ion marching and fine musical
arrangements of many old-time
favourites. •
With Clinton's Bud Hayter
acting as master of ceremonies,
the show got off to a resound-
ing start when Martin Boundy
led the massed bands in "0
Canada".
He came back later to lead
the massed brass bands in the
"Thunder March" and Ernie
Welton, leader of the Forest
and Thedford bands, also led
the bands in the ever popular
hymn "Abide With Me".
The bands were directed in
their final massed number,
"Military Escort", by Andy
Hoe, leader of the St. Marys
Marching Band. •
The St. Marys Marching
Band won the Anstett Jewel-
lers trophy as the best band in
attendance. The parade judges
for the competition were mem-
bers of the Flying Dutchmen,
while Martin Bound), judged
the musical performances.

Holmesville Leads
Softbel Final
• After losing the first game
of their Huron Central Soft-
ball loop final to Londesboro,
the Holmesville nine bounced
back this week to record three
straight wins to take a com-
manding 3-1 lead in the best-of-
seven affair.
They started their winning
streak in Blyth last week with
a 9-4 win and then pounded
out a close 11-10 verdict under
the lights in Goderich on Satur-
day.
The final win was a 27-9
drubbing in Blyth on Tuesday.
The next game of the series
will be played in Blyth tonight

mesville will give them the loop
championship. Game time is

way into the WOAA final when
they scored an exciting 3.2 win
over St. MaryS at the RCAF'
Clinton park, Saturday, to win
the best-of-three series by a
2-1 margin,

in the series in St.Marys on

ed back to lace the locals by
a-14-8 count, scaring nine runs
in the seventh inning to earn

for the Clinton squad and had
a lead going into the final
frame, but St. Marys broke
loose to cop the victory.
tition was the Milverton Legion

ions, the RCAF Clinton Band,
placed third.

were the Thedford Silver Band,

performed, although they were
not included in the competition,
being the host group. •
The highlight of their per-
formance came in "Bye, Bye
Blues", in which F/0 J. Ric-
ard, RCAF Clinton, performed
a trumpet solo.
Wonch reported that many
people, including several of the
band leaders, remarked on the
excellence of the solo.
Another enjoyable moment in
the two-hour show was a maj-
orette demonstration by four
girls with the Milverton Legion
Band.
Performing in front of the
grand stand, the girls used fl-
aming batons and thrilled the
crowd as they twirled them
over their heads, behind their
backs and between their legs.
The show was again spons-
ored by the Clinton Branch of
the Royal Canadian Legion and
the Clinton Community March-
ing and Concert Band.
Wonch stated he is already
planning another event for next
year and expects to draw
bands from °tit of the Chat-
ham and Sarnia area so there
will be an entirely new show
again,

the presentation by the Clinton
Band to Drum Major Bob Hu-
ard, who was making his last
appearance with the band.
The presentation was made
by John Wise, president of the
band.

JUDGING FROM the num-
ber of persons at the baseball
diamond these days, it is not a
well-known fact that Clinton
has two scrappy :Ming ball
teams battling for a WOAA
championship . . The Fish and
Game midgets start their final
series against Meaford Thurs-
day (tonight) and the lads .cer-
tainly deserve the community's
support. Many of the locals
played on the bantam team of
last year which reached the
OBA finals, and backed by the
addition of three of last year's
midgets, could go all, the way
The other -team is the
Kinsmen pee wees, who took a
one-game lead in the WOAA
final when they drubbed Lis-
towel by the tune of 22-1 on
Monday, They played last night
in the Northern town and
should have wrapped up the
title, but in case they lost, they
will be playing Friday back
here . . . During playoffs, the
teams quite often commence
play in a series on' short notice
and it is not always possible
for us to inform our readers
of the games. So, keep your
eyes open for the posters or
ask the boys and be. a spectator
at the next home" game . .
The boys play a good brand
of ball, but need to know the
community is behind them all
the way in their quest to bring
us home the honours.
