O AJAX A !AWAY • et Squa The First Column • and Batkin and a Milton error accounted for the final two, Laurie Colquhoun made the score 7-0 in the sixth when he fed off with a towering smash that landed well behind the left fielder and would have been a home-run in any park, as it was in Milton, Milton Rallies Milton finally came to life in the seventh when they plat- ed all four runs on a pair of hits and two free passes. McPherson loaded the sacks with only one away and Mc- Dttffe tagged a pitch for a triple to drive in three tallies and came home on a fielder's choice when Magee came in to end the threat. Both squads threatened mild- ly in the final two innings, but Magee and Milton's 'Simpson worked their way out of trouble to leave the score at 7-4, Colquhoun with his homer and double paced the' Clinton attack, while Bob Batkin pounded out three singles. Switzer had a pair of safe- ties, while single clouts came off the bats of Jim Livermore, Bob Pearson, McPherson and Larry Pickett, who appeared at the plate only once. McPherson had six strikeouts in his stint, while Magee sent one clown swinging. Sclisizzi and Simpson had only five tannings to their credit. About 30 people from Clinton were on hand to cheer their favourites on to victory and they far outnumbered the Mil- ton supporters. was the subject of a few chid- ing remarks on his popularity with the younger set, but councillor Norm Livermore topped it off when he pointed out: "they may have been painting the house yellow, but I'll bet the air was blue" . , Such are the hazards of public - WHILE NEVER one to hold a grudge, we can still recall the nervous times we've had pee Wee Starter Has Control Probe on exam papers and similar whim P ush Locals To tide rues reading carefully instructions 0 questionnaires . . . This week we journeyed to the jammed halls of CHSS to take pictbres of all the new teachers and took along a pad of paper to have them put clown their name and address, underlining the word "print" we had included in the instructions . When our task was completed, we found that - six had written their names and another four had failed to list any address. It took a long time, but we knew some members of ,that profes- sion would make a slip some day and it would be our turn . . . Of a more serious nature, we failed to become acquainted with any of the new 35 mem- bers as we passed them through an assembly4ine photo proced- ure, but we. are looking forward to meeting them; as we know all Clintonians are . . . It was with this thought in mind that we will be printing all their pictures so 'at.least our readers will recognize our newest citi- zens and we trust the usual friendly Clinton welcome will be afforded them . . Now that our teachers and our read- ers • have been very formally introduced, we hope the latter group will take it upon them- selves to Make our new arrivals feel genuinely welcome in the cotnatunity. 0 The Fish and Game midgets had a comparatively easy time • in registering a 7-4 win over Milton in their Saturday outing as they pounded out 11 hits, while Doug McPherson and Glare Magee limited the -home squad to only four safeties, McPherson started on the hill and held the losers hitless in the first six innings, although he allowed eight base runners as he had control troubles. However, he bore down in the clutch and left them all stand- ing on the sacks, aided by near errorless fielding by his mates, Clinton got men on second and third in the first and one. to' second in the second, but it wasn't until the third they were able to push across their first tally. Leadoff man Bob Batkin started it off with a sharp single and after stealing second and moving to third on a pas- sed ball, crossed the plate on a. wild pickoff attempt by the catcher. They took control of the con- test in_ the fifth frame when they came up with five hits on five runs. Jim Livermore got the ball rolling with a single and Laurie Colquhoun then pounded out a double to the skin-outfield between the centre and left fielders. Clare Magee sent Livermore home on a sacrifice fly and John Cooper reached first on a fielder's choice when Colquhoun attempted to come home on his tap to the infield. Bob Pearson then uncorked a booming triple to bring in two more tallies and singles by Charlie Switzer Page 12 News-Rpcord Thurs,, ni 1904 BROWNIE'S DRIVE-IN CLINTON 2 cqmplgt9.

The Milton pee wees pounded, out 13 hits off the offerings of two Clinton hurlers to score a decisive 12-4 win and oust the locals from further OBA com- petition, Cam ColqUhoun started on the hill for the local WOAA champs and the lanky hurler had trouble maintaining his footing on the mound that was quite apparently built for smal- ler players. After striking' out the first batter, he issued three straight walks and Milton chased two runners across, the plate on Gary Nayler's timely single and a balk by Colquhoun. After walking one more, he left the bases loaded by strik- ing out Ray Evans. Milton took a commanding 7-0 lead at the end of the sec- ond on five more runs as they nicked Colquhoun for four sing- les, a triple and a base on balls before Mike Graham came in to retire the side on an infield fly and a strikeout. Clinton whittled the lead to 7-3 in the top of the third when they came through with their best showing and chased start- ing hurler Gary Nayler. Greg Burns started things off with a single and went all the way to third on an overthrow and then scampered across the plate when Rick Fremlin grounded out. Cam Colquhoun then laced out a booming triple to right field and Nayler issued succes- sive walks to Dave. Cooper, Mike Graltm and Bruce Schoenhals, sending Colquhoun home. Crafty Ray Evans then replac- ed Nayler on the' mound, and after striking out Bob Cooper, walked Paul Bartliff to force the third Clinton run home be- fore Miller grounded out. Graham kept the home nine off the sheet until the fifth when Evans toured the sacks after getting a free pass and they added their final four tal- lies in the sixth on three singles and a booming- triple by Mike McGrath, After picking up only one hit off Evans in three innings, Clinton threatened in the last frame when they counted their final. marker. Rick Fremlin's long triple to left field started the rally and Colquhoun sent him home With a single. However, the latter was stranded when, Dave Cooper and Graham went "down on strikes and Schoenhals dribbled one to the mound. Colquheun paced the local at- tack with his triple and single, while Burns, Fremlin. Graham and Schoenhals had one safety each. OPERATE a. Chequing Account CLINTON COMMUNITY . CREDIT UNION.
