"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- (Continued from page one) 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.

The final win was a 27-9 drubbing in Blyth on Tuesday. The next game of the series will be played in Blyth tonight (Thursday) and a win for Hol- mesville will give them the loop championship.

Other bands in attendance were the Thedford Silver Band, Forest Excelsior Band and the St. Thomas Marching Royals.

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, Honour Drum Major A sidelight to the show was 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. Clintonian Club The Clintonian Club met at the home of Mrs. Harold Ad- ams for their August meeting with 14 members present.
